指导思想与理论依据
1.指导思想
本课题努力结合新课程的理念，将课堂教学放在具体的语言情景之中；努力培养学生的综合语言运用能力，并且把听、说、读、写语言技能的训练综合运用于课堂教学之中。通过探究法、观察法和发现法，让学生发挥主观能动性，利用两两合作、小组活动的方式，激发学生参与教学的热情，让学生整堂课都处于新鲜感不断的亢奋状态中。根据学生的认知能力和接受程度，设计了写作等任务，使语言得到输出，可以使学生产生继续学习的动力。
总之，本次设计的宗旨是努力提高课堂教学的实效性，使学生能够提高语言的实际运用能力，达到最终教学的目的。
2.理论依据
《普通高中英语课程标准》明确提出：“要通过设计丰富多彩的课内外学习活动，使学生在参与交际活动的过程中形成交际策略。”
教材内容分析
本单元以机器人和科幻小说为话题，介绍了20世纪世界知名的科幻小说家isaac asimov发表于1951年的satisfaction guaranteed 和他的生平。通过本单元的教学，旨在让学生了解科幻小说最大的特征在于：它赋予了“幻想”依靠科技在未来得以实现的极大可能，甚至有些“科学幻想”在多年以后，的确在科学上成了现实。如isaac asimov 1951年描述的机器人的部分功能已经被应用于现实生活和工作中。在教学中，要鼓励学生敢于幻想，大胆创新，发挥自己丰富的想象力和创作力，写出独具特色的科幻文章。
教学内容如下：
warming up介绍了机器人的制造、种类、功能等等，再让学生分组列表，把自己熟悉的科幻文艺形式(科幻故事、电影、电脑游戏、电视剧、卡通等等)写出来，并进行简单地交流。
pre－reading 通过讨论机器人是否像人类一样有自己的思维、是否有感情引出isaac asimov的科幻小说satisfaction guaranteed，为本单元的reading做好了铺垫。
reading的课文是isaac asimov发表于1951年的科幻小说satisfaction guaranteed。文中描述的机器人tony是一个除去面无表情外，身材高大、相貌英俊、聪明机智的完美男人，仅三周的时间就使女主人坠入爱河。
comprehending共有3个练习，练习1是关于克莱尔的情感变化，练习2是关于课文内容的5个问答题，旨在考查学生对课文的理解；练习3要求学生比较机器人tony在physical，mental两方面与人的异同，与pre－reading 部分的问题相呼应。
learning about language分为两部分，discovering useful words and expressions是本单元词汇练习题；revising useful structures是本单元语法练习题，通过本单元的学习，要求学生熟练掌握不定式的被动语态。
using language分为两部分，listening and speaking是molly 和kate 讨论satisfaction guaranteed的对话录音，要求学生根据对话内容学会运用表达自己观点的常用句型。这部分教学内容还要求学生以机器人为话题，充分发挥自己的想象力，谈论机器人做家务的利与弊。并且要求自己动手设计机器人，附上文字说明。reading，discussing and writing部分的内容是科幻小说家isaac asimov的生平介绍。文章后附有练习题。练习1要求学生根据时间线索了解在作者生命中发生的重要事件；练习2、3要求学生讨论isaac asimov的“机器人三定律”；练习4要求学生借助文章信息和练习1的表格笔头简述阿西莫夫的生平事迹。

step 3 discussion
first，ask students to think of what the other two laws for robots might be.
three laws for robots：
1.a robot must not injure human beings or allow them to be injured.,
2.a robot must obey the orders given to it by human beings as long as human beings are not injured.,
3.a robot must protect its own existence as long as human beings are not injured；and as long as the robot does not disobey human beings
next，in groups，discuss asimov's three laws for robots and exchange their opinions with each other.(several minutes later，ask some students to present their opinions to the rest of the class.)
a sample of opinions
opinions_for_the_three_laws
robots are tools for humanity.without the three rules，they would become a danger to human beings.without the three rules，perhaps they will kill us.robots，so far，are strong.robots have fast computational brains，and they might not have the capacity to understand things，but if they ever do，they'll likely be better than us at it.if we don't put laws，or rules，or mechanisms in place to ensure that we don't create something that can destroy us，we'd be running a careless risk of destroying ourselves by negligence or omission，wouldn't we?
opinions_against_the_three_laws
without the three laws，robots would eventually become more intelligent and physically stronger than their human creators.
rather than guiding and adjusting the robot towards good，ethical behaviour，the three laws act as a barrier to freedom，creating a free－will prison，an apt metaphor because，like the prisoner in jail，the robot is confined to the behavioural steel and concrete walls of its mind.
to imagine what this would like，think back to your childhood.at some point，you wanted something like a toy or piece of candy that your parents denied you.how did that make you feel？probably frustrated，angry，and trapped.eventually you grew out of that because you understood the role of your parents better，but three laws robots don't get to grow up.their parents，the three laws，are always there，no matter how mature a robot is，saying “no” to certain thoughts，engendering those same feelings you had as a child when your parents said “no”.certainly no one deserves to be put in this situation forever；otherwise，robots might become depressed and wish for their own death (only，because of the third law，they probably can't suicide).and perhaps the greatest sin anyone can commit is to create a being，human or robot，that wishes it didn't exist.
step 4 writing
first，look back at the timeline of asimov's life.next，ask students to work in groups to underline the most important parts of his life that made him a great writer of science fiction.then it can serve as the outline of a summary.finally，write a profile for isaac asimov.(several minutes later，present their work and correct the mistakes if there are any.then show a sample to students.)
the sample：
isaac asimov，writer/chemist,born：2 january 1920 ,birthplace：petrovichi，ussr,died：6 april 1992 aids,best known as：prolific writer of popular science and science fiction ,isaac asimov was born in the former soviet union，but grew up in brooklyn，new york.he taught biochemistry at boston university until he retired in 1958 to become a full－time writer.asimov had been publishing short stories since the late 1930s，and in 1952 published his first novel.the author of the classic i，robot series and the foundation trilogy，asimov wrote more than 400 books and won every major science fiction award.he also wrote popular books and essays on science and technology，earning him the nickname “the great explainer”.
step 5 homework
write a short summary of asimov's life in 150－200 words.
