教学过程（40 分钟）
环节 时长 教学活动 师生行为 设计意图
Step 1 话题导入 + 背景激活 5min 1. 话题导入：呈现本单元学习目标（talk about space achievements; make predictions about space exploration using the passive voice; describe your space dream; explore the meaning of and reasons for space exploration），明确本课任务。
2. 主题图观察：展示主题图（即将发射的中国火箭），依次提问：What does the photo show How does this photo make you feel Would you like to experience space travel one day 引导学生用 It shows a Chinese rocket. It is ready to launch for space exploration. / It makes me feel excited and proud. / Yes, I'd love to. 等表达回答。
3. 视频导入：播放神舟二十三号发射视频，提问：What did you see in the video What do you know about China's space programme 引出 A rocket is launching.（Shenzhou 23, on May 24, 2026），激活中国航天背景知识。 教师呈现单元目标，展示主题图并播放视频，逐步提问，补充中国航天成就背景；学生观察图片、观看视频并回答问题，唤醒已有知识，进入太空探索话题情境。 以单元目标统领课堂，用主题图与火箭发射视频直观导入，激活学生对中国航天成就的已有认知与兴趣，自然引出“Beyond Earth”主题，激发民族自豪感。
Step 2 词汇铺垫 + 听前准备 6min 1. 认识航天项目（1a）：展示 Tiangong、Zhurong、Chang'e、Xuntian 四幅图片，学生完成句子匹配：____ is a space programme's name for a mission to the moon. / ____ is China's first long-term space station. / ____ is another name known for China Space Station Telescope (CSST). / ____ is a rover sent to Mars to explore its surface.
2. 新词拼读：学习 mission / m n/ n. 任务；使命、telescope / tel sk p/ n. 望远镜、rover / r v (r)/ n. 探测器；漫游者的读音与词义。
3. 核对答案：Chang'e（C）、Tiangong（A）、Xuntian（D）、Zhurong（B）。 教师展示图片与句子，带读新词，组织学生匹配并核对答案；学生观察图片、拼读词汇，完成 1a 的句子匹配，为听力扫清障碍。 在听前完成词汇铺垫（mission, telescope, rover），通过图文匹配让学生熟悉四个航天项目的名称与基本事实，为 1b、1c 的听力任务做好语言和背景准备。
Step 3 三轮听力 + 细节抓取 12min 1. 第一遍听（1b）：听三则新闻报道，圈出在 1a 中听到的物体或名称。
2. 第二遍听（1c）：再听一遍，完成笔记填空——News report 1: Zhurong rover has successfully landed on Mars ________; It is hoped that a manned mission to the moon will follow ________. News report 2: The Tiangong Space Station was completed ________; More ________ will be sent there. News report 3: The Xuntian telescope weighs about ________; It can be more easily maintained and ________. 学习 manned /m nd/ adj. 需人操作的；载人的、maintain /me n te n/ v. 维修；保持，核对答案（in 2021; around 2030; in 2022; astronauts; 15,550 kilograms; repaired）。
3. 第三遍听：听并补全句子——News report 1: was made public, successfully landed；News report 2: has announced, continue its cooperation, scientific research；News report 3: known as, is designed to, explore more areas。 教师播放录音三遍，逐遍明确任务，核对答案并讲解关键表达；学生带着任务逐层精听，抓取时间、数字等细节信息，依次完成 1b、1c 与句子补全。 落实中考听力微技能训练（听前预测、听中聚焦），通过“圈选—笔记填空—补全句子”三种题型逐层递进，引导学生从抓大意到抓细节，全面理解三则航天新闻的内容。
Step 4 主题探究 + 口语输出 9min 1. 拓展讨论：What other China's space programme do you know 观察航天成就图片，讨论：What did you find from these pictures 总结：China has made a great success in space exploration. / They are named after Chinese ancient stories or poems.
2. 意义探究：Why do we explore space 升华主题：They carry the wisdom of ancient Chinese culture and the dreams of Chinese people. / It's about curiosity, courage, the desire to know more about our universe.
3. 口语输出（1d）：运用对话框架 A: Do you know / Have you heard that ... will be launched soon B: No. What's that about / Oh, yes. I heard about that. It's ... 复述一则课堂新闻报道，或与同伴分享另一条航天新闻。 教师组织讨论，引导学生发现航天项目命名的文化内涵，探究太空探索的意义，并提供对话框架组织口语活动；学生讨论分享，两人一组完成 1d 的新闻复述与交流。 从语言学习上升到主题意义探究，理解航天命名背后的中华文化智慧（ancient stories or poems）与探索宇宙的好奇心、勇气，并通过 1d 实现从“听懂”到“会说”的输出跨越。
Step 5 词汇精讲 + 当堂检测 8min 1. 词汇精讲：系统讲解核心词汇 beyond /b j nd/、mission / m n/、telescope / tel sk p/、maintain /me n te n/、launch /l nt / 的巧记方法、常用搭配、例句与中考考点。
2. 当堂检测：完成单词默写（beyond, mission, telescope, rover, manned, maintain, launch）、短语填空（space station, rover, space telescope, manned mission, land on）与五道单项选择题，并核对答案。 教师结合例句精讲词汇要点，组织默写与练习并当堂反馈；学生跟读、记录词汇要点，独立完成默写、选词填空与选择练习。 讲练结合，系统巩固核心词汇的音、形、义与搭配，通过单词默写、短语填空和中考题型当堂检测，夯实语言基础，检验学习效果。
分层课后作业
层次 作业内容
基础必做 1. 抄写本课核心词汇（beyond, mission, telescope, rover, manned, maintain, launch）2遍。
2. 大声朗读三则听力新闻报道，模仿录音的语音语调。
3. 完成课后词汇与单项选择练习，并核对答案。
提升选做 从课堂上的三则新闻报道中任选一则进行复述，或另选一条你了解的中国航天新闻，仿照课堂新闻句式，用60-80词写成一段英文小报道，至少使用4个本课核心词汇（如 launch, mission, telescope, rover）。
课后教学反思
反思板块 记录要点
词汇难点 学生能否准确掌握 beyond 的两种词性与“超出”含义、telescope、rover 等航天词汇的读音与拼写？能否区分 maintain（维修；保持）在文中的具体含义？
听力抓取 在三则新闻报道的听力任务中，学生能否在语速较快的情况下准确捕捉时间与数字信息（in 2021, around 2030, in 2022, 15,550 kilograms）？能否写出句子填空所需的正确形式（was made public, has announced）？
口语输出 学生能否熟练运用 1d 的对话框架（Do you know / Have you heard that... ）完整复述一则航天新闻，并与同伴进行真实、自然的交流？
思辨与升华 学生是否真正理解了航天项目命名背后的中华文化内涵（named after Chinese ancient stories or poems），并能用自己的语言表达太空探索的意义（curiosity, courage, the desire to know more about our universe）？
