《will people have robot》試講稿

Good morning, boys and girls, how are you today! You all have a good day? I also hope that you will enjoy today’s class. Let’s get started. I have a video clip here. Let’s watch it together and tell me what is it about? //The video is over. What is it? Yes, it’s a movie called transformers. And in this movie there are many super power cars that can change into human figures, right? So these are kind of robots. But now I have a question “Do you think there will be more or fewer robots made in the future? And why?” Four students as a group to discuss this question. Five minutes for you. Ok, let’s get rolling. //Time is up! Group 1, what’s the opinion of your group?// You all think that there will be more robots in the future because they are very helpful.// Sounds reasonable! What’s the opinion of Group 3? I saw you really have a hot debate.// Your group disagrees with Group 1 because you all think robots cannot replace human.// Excellent answer. We know that it is true in some way or another.

Pre-reading

     As we all know, robots have been made for a very long time. From very simple one to very complicated one. Now we have a guess, whether there will be robot for everyone in the future.// Some students said yes, and others said no. Do you want to know the answer? Now let’s read the passage to find it out.

While-reading

You are supposed to skim for 3 minutes and then tell me the main idea and the answer to our last question. // Finished? So what’s the main idea of this passage? Jack, please. Jack said that it’s mainly about robots, such as the shape of them and the function of them. Is he right? Yes, nicely done. sit down please. And next question, whether there will be robot for everyone in the future? Milly? You said that different people hold different opinions. But who is agree and who is not? No? others? You all don’t know? Ok, that’s all right.

Let’s read the passage carefully again and then we do a match about who is agreed/disagreed that there will be robots just like human. Let’s do it! Here we go! //Who could answer this question? Any volunteers? Yes, Peter. //Ok, he said “scientist James White thinks that it will be difficult for a robot to do the same things as a person.” Is he right? Yes. he has got exactly the right answer. You really read very carefully about this text. I can tell. Sit down please.

Another question for you. Why fewer people will do simple jobs over and over again? Iris, please. You said that because they are boring, but robots never get bored. Is she right? Excellent! Then in this sentence. I find two words. “bored” and “boring”. They are very much alike. What’s the difference between them? Jack? You think they are the same? Think it again. Look at the sentence. The subject of the first sentence is jobs, right? But the subject of the second sentence is human-like robots. So can you tell the difference now? You said boring is to describe things and bored is used to describe human or human like things. Yes, exactly. Now everyone clear about the difference between them? Ok, now I have a filling the blank task on the blackboard for you. 2 minute for you to fill in them with proper words. I see all of you have finished. who would like to come to the blackboard and finish them? Ok, Rita puts up her hand. Brave girl. Come here.// She finished. Please go back to your seat. Let’s check the answer together. The first one, right, the second one, right. And the third one? Not right? Ok, let’s help her correct it. It should be “Her mother wore a worried look.” Not worrying. Because the action is done by a person, right? ok, very good. Now, do you all clear about their difference? Ok.

Now, let’s read this passage out loud together and pay attention to your pronunciation.// Your voices are all so beautiful.

Post-reading

We have already read through this passage and get the meaning of it. Now we are going to have a debate on the topic of “Will there be robots just like human?” In the debate sentence patterns learned should be used, ok? Let’s see which side would be better. //You really had a hot debate. I can see each side has made clear their opinions and explain their reasons. You all did a very good job in this debate.

Summary

Now Cindy, can you summarize what we have learned in this lesson today? Quite right, we have learnt a passage about robots and know some details about it. And we learn two very much alike words and know their difference ….You know what? All of you could in the future help promote the development of robot. And learning knowledge constantly is of great importance. Always bear in mind.
