Step1：Leading-in and Pre-reading

T： Yesterday we talked about world records. Now let's answer some simple questions to see how much you know about them . How long did the longest lecture last？ Any volunteer？

S1： 62.5h .

T： Right. How old was the youngest college graduate？

S2： 10 years old..

T： Very good. If you want to know more about the biggest， smallest， slowest， and youngest … ， you can read this book. （ Teacher shows the book——The Guinness Book Of World Records to the students.） First let's learn the new words.

T： Now look at the questions in Pre-reading quickly at Page 3 then scan the text as quickly as possible and find the answers to them. （Teacher gives the students several minutes to scan the passage . After that， check the answers.）

设计意图：本环节通过老师提问前一节课所学过的关于吉尼斯世界记录的问题，激发学生的学习兴趣以及激活已有的背景知识，使学生能运用已有的知识和经验思考本单元的中心话题，能起到温故而知新的作用。

Step2：Reading

T：OK. Now ， please read the passage again. This time you should read it as carefully as possible . Then answer the some detailed questions in Ex.1 in the Post-reading . Now let's begin .（ Several minutes later， teacher checks the answers. Then teacher shows the Phrases and Sentence pattern on the screen and explains them to the students. ）

T：OK. Now please read the passage once more. Try to understand the phrases and sentence pattern learnt just now. Are you clear？

Ss： Yes .

T：OK. Now let's begin.

（ Teacher shows the following on the screen， after a while asks some students to say their answers. One student ， one sentence.）

Match each of the sentences with a paragraph in the reading.

设计意图：本部分根据学生的认知规律而设计，在学生对本篇文章的大概内容已经初步了解的前提下，让他们由浅入深地理解文章当中的细节，培养学生的推断及猜测能力，推断隐含内容，要掌握各段大意。

Step3：Listening and Consolidation

T：Now I'll play the tape. Listen carefully， paying attention to the pronunciation and intonation . Then read it aloud. At the same time， you should pay attention to the way to get a record into The Guinness Book Of World Records. Are you clear about that？

Ss： Yes .

设计意图：阅读是英语教学的重点，也算是难点，同时根据英语标对学生能力的要求，本课教学以阅读教学为主，同时兼顾听说能力的培养。

Step4：Summary and Homework

⑴ Remember to review， and try to make a sentence using each phrase and the sentence pattern. Don't forget to preview "Word Study" and "Grammar" in the next .

⑵ Work in group to find more information about Guinness records through internet as well as books about after class .（Teacher writes these two tasks on the blackboard）

T： Well .That's all for today. Class is over！ Good-bye， class！

Ss： Bye！.

设计意图：温故而知新，课后的任务不仅能锻炼学生的自学能力，而且能让学生了解网络图书馆和书籍资料一样是学习的重要途径。
