We've been on an amazing journey exploring various fascinating parks in this unit. Now, it's time to assess our progress and see how much we've learned. Before we start, let's quickly think back to some of the wonderful parks we've read about. Who can name one park that left a deep impression on you? Yes, the boy in the front row. 学生回答 1: Sarek National Park. It's so remote and has such unique landscapes. 教师回应 1: Absolutely! Sarek National Park is truly a wonder. Its remoteness and untouched beauty are captivating. Now, let's get started with our assessment. 一、词汇复习（Vocabulary review） 教师讲解 1: First, let's review some key words and phrases from this unit. I'll show you some pictures, and you need to tell me the relevant words. Look at this picture. It shows a very large area of land. What word can we use to describe it? (Shows a picture of a vast plain) 学生回答 2: Vast. 教师回应 2: Correct! “Vast” means very large in area. Now, look at this picture. It shows a place that is far away from other places, not easily accessible. What word comes to your mind? (Shows a picture of a small village in the mountains, isolated) 学生回答 3: Remote. 教师回应 3: Well done! “Remote” describes a place that is distant. Let's move on to a more challenging one. Here's a picture of a place that is full of charm and attracts people a lot. What word can we use? (Shows a picture of a beautiful, unique - looking park) 学生回答 4: Fascinating. 教师回应 4: Perfect! “Fascinating” means extremely interesting or attractive. Now, I want you to work in pairs. One of you describes a word from this unit using a sentence or an action, and the other guesses the word. Let's start. (Students work in pairs) Okay, time's up. Which pair wants to share their experience? Pair 1, please. 小组展示 1: We had the word “territory”. I described it as “the area that belongs to a particular group or country”, and my partner guessed it right. 教师回应 5: Great job! You've explained the word very clearly. Now, let's do an exercise to further test your understanding of these words. I'll give you a passage, and you need to fill in the blanks with the correct forms of the words in the box. The words are “vast”, “remote”, “fascinating”, “territory”, “bless”, “accompany”, “appeal to”. Listen carefully as I read the passage. “My name is Svetlana and I have worked as a guide at Lake Baikal for more than 10 years. Lying in a pretty location in Siberia, the deep and 1.______ lake with more than 300 rivers flowing into it is one of the world’s greatest natural wonders. Every season, I 2.______ and guide tourists. Baikal is a 3.______ with unique wildlife, breathtaking beauty, and local culture. Ancient, inspiring, mysterious, and beautiful, Lake Baikal 4.______ visitors like no other place on the earth. I feel 5.______ to have been born here, and I am looking forward to many more years of welcoming visitors to an unforgettable experience at Baikal.” Start filling in the blanks. (Students fill in the blanks) Let's check the answers. For the first blank, it should be “vast” to describe the large area of the lake. The second blank is “accompany” because the guide accompanies the tourists. The third blank is “territory” as it refers to the area of Baikal. The fourth blank is “appeals to” as the lake attracts visitors. And the fifth blank is “blessed” as the guide feels lucky. Did you all get them right? 二、语法巩固（Grammar reinforcement） 教师讲解 2: Now, let's move on to grammar. In this unit, we've learned about the -ing form as the subject. Let's review some examples. For instance, “Seeing is believing.” Here, “seeing” is the -ing form acting as the subject. Can you give me another example? Yes, the girl in the second row. 学生回答 5: “Reading books is a good hobby.” 教师回应 6: Excellent! You've used the -ing form “reading” as the subject correctly. Now, let's do an exercise. I'll ask you some questions, and you need to answer them using the -ing form of the verb phrases in brackets. For example, if I ask “What impressed you most when visiting Zhangye Danxia Geopark?” and the phrase in brackets is “see the colourful mountains and rocky landscape”, the answer should be “Seeing the colourful mountains and rocky landscape impressed me most.” Are you clear? Let's start. (1) What tops the list of tourists’ favourite activities in Zhangjiajie? (admire the magnificent peaks/landscape, take a raft ride, experience the local customs of the Tujia people and the Miao people) (2) What do tourists like to do at Guilin’s Li River? (take a boat tour, admire the karst landscape) (3) What activities would appeal to adventurous tourists in Lijiang, Yunnan Province? (view glaciers at Yulong Snow Mountain, listen to the sound of rushing water at Tiger Leaping Gorge) 学生回答 6: For the first question, “Admiring the magnificent peaks/landscape, taking a raft ride, and experiencing the local customs of the Tujia people and the Miao people top the list of tourists’ favourite activities in Zhangjiajie.” 教师回应 7: Great answer! You've included all the activities using the -ing form correctly. Now, for the second question. 学生回答 7: “Taking a boat tour and admiring the karst landscape are things that tourists like to do at Guilin’s Li River.” 教师回应 8: Perfect! And for the third question. 学生回答 8: “Viewing glaciers at Yulong Snow Mountain and listening to the sound of rushing water at Tiger Leaping Gorge appeal to adventurous tourists in Lijiang, Yunnan Province.” 教师回应 9: Well done! Now, I want you to write down at least two more questions and answers of your own using the -ing form as the subject. Work on it for a few minutes. (Students write questions and answers) Okay, let's stop here. Who wants to share their questions and answers? Yes, the boy in the back. 学生展示 2: My question is “What is the best way to relax in a park?” And my answer is “Taking a walk and enjoying the fresh air is the best way to relax in a park.” 教师回应 10: Wonderful! That's a very practical answer. Now, let's move on to reflecting on what we've learned in this unit. 三、反思与回顾（Reflection and review） 教师引导思考: Let's think about what we've learned about parks that we didn't know before. Discuss this with your partner for a minute. (Students discuss) Okay, time's up. Who wants to share? Yes, the girl in the middle. 学生回答 9: I learned that some national parks, like Sarek National Park, have very strict rules to keep the land in its natural state, and only certain indigenous people are allowed to live there. 教师回应 11: That's a great point. It shows the importance of protecting the natural environment of these parks. What else did you learn? The boy in the third row. 学生回答 10: I learned about different types of parks, not just the regular city parks but also geoparks and national parks with unique geological features. 教师回应 12: Exactly! There's so much diversity in the world of parks. Now, let's think about what else you would like to learn about parks. 学生回答 11: I would like to learn more about how parks contribute to the local economy and how they are managed to balance conservation and tourism. 教师回应 13: That's a very interesting aspect. Parks do play an important role in both the economy and conservation. Now, of the parks in this unit, which would you like to visit most? And why? 学生回答 12: I would like to visit Zhangye Danxia Geopark the most because the colourful mountains and rocky landscape look so amazing. I've never seen anything like that before. 教师回应 14: It is indeed a spectacular place. Now, let's talk about the problems you or your friends had in studying this unit. How did you solve them? And what advice did you give each other? Discuss in your groups. (Students discuss in groups) Okay, let's hear from one of the groups. Group 2, please. 小组讨论展示 1: Some of us had trouble understanding the long descriptions of the parks in the reading passages. We solved this by reading the passages slowly, sentence by sentence, and underlining the key information. We also advised each other to look up new words in the dictionary immediately when we encountered them. 教师回应 15: Great strategies! Reading slowly and looking up new words are very helpful. Now, let's move on to a more creative and challenging part - creating your ideal theme park. 四、项目活动：创建你理想的主题公园（Project activity: Create your ideal theme park） 教师布置任务: First, let's discuss these questions in groups. What kind of theme park do you want to create? You can choose one of the ideas below, or come up with one of your own. Also, think about what your park will offer visitors. Come up with at least three things for each category. (Shows some theme park ideas on the screen, such as a science - fiction theme park, a fairytale - themed park, etc.) For example, if you choose a science - fiction theme park, you might offer visitors virtual reality experiences, exhibits of future technologies, and rides that simulate space travel. Start your discussion. (Students discuss in groups) Okay, time's up. Which group wants to share their theme park idea? Group 1, please. 小组展示 3: We want to create a nature - conservation - themed park. In our park, we will offer visitors nature - watching tours where they can see different kinds of rare birds and animals. We will also have workshops on how to plant trees and take care of the environment. And there will be an interactive museum that shows the importance of conservation through fun games and displays. 教师回应 16: That's a wonderful idea! It combines education and entertainment. Now, let's move on to the next step. You need to create a map of your theme park. Decide where each attraction, facility, and activity area will be located. Work on this in your groups. (Students work on creating the map) Let's see the maps that some groups have created. Group 3, please show us your map and explain the layout. 小组展示 4: (Shows the map) In our fairytale - themed park, the entrance is designed like a big castle gate. Right in the middle, we have a large area for a stage where fairytale performances will be held. Around it, we have different areas for rides. For example, there's a “Pumpkin Carriage Ride” over here, and a “Magic Carpet Ride” on the other side. We also have a snack area shaped like a giant mushroom, and restrooms designed like little cottages. 教师回应 17: Very creative! The layout seems well - thought - out. Now, the final step is to create a poster to promote your theme park. Your poster should include the name of the park, some key attractions, and a catchy slogan. Work on your posters. (Students work on creating posters) Let's take a look at some of the posters. Group 4, please share your poster. 小组展示 5: (Shows the poster) Our park is called “Wonderland Adventure Theme Park”. Our key attractions are a “Dinosaur Valley” where visitors can see life - size dinosaur models and learn about them, a “Flying Islands” ride that gives a bird's - eye view of the park, and a “Mystery Forest” area with hidden paths and surprises. Our slogan is “Come to Wonderland Adventure and let your dreams take flight!” 教师回应 18: Fantastic poster! The name, attractions, and slogan are all very appealing. Now, let's take a moment to appreciate all the hard work you've put into this project. Each group has come up with unique and creative theme park ideas. 教师总结: Today, we've assessed our progress in this unit by reviewing vocabulary, grammar, and reflecting on what we've learned. We've also had a lot of fun creating our ideal theme parks. Remember, learning a language is not just about memorizing words and grammar, but also about being able to use it to express your ideas and creativity. For homework, I want you to write a short paragraph about the theme park you created in class. Include more details about why you chose that theme and what makes your park special.
