说明：链接1是上恐龙这篇文章的多媒体。在上到本教时的结尾时，可以让学生编写恐龙灭亡的故事，把writing的内容插进去上。对程度好的学生来讲，编出的故事会趣味盎然。

 说明：地欧及尼斯是希腊古代哲学家，我们在此处找出一个中国古代哲学家孔子来做相应的对照。

One of the most famous people in ancient China was a wise philosopher named Confucius (circa 551-479 BC). He sometimes went by the names Kong Zi though he was born - Kong Qiu - styled Zhong Ni. He was born in the village of Zou in the country of Lu.

This chinese man was a well-known leader in philosophy and he also made many wise phrases and theories about the law, life, and the government. Philosophy is a kind of a system of ideas and thoughts that talk about the human's behavior, the rules that you should follow to make a successful life, and about the government.

In other words, it's about thoughts and theories that teach other people lessons about principles, or rules, about life and it also teaches you a moral ( sort of like the morals that are at the end of a fable). Confucius is famous for his philosophy because he made many wise sayings in ancient China that helped many people learn about nature, the world, and the human behavior. He also helped the government and the emperor by teaching them lessons on how the emperor should rule his kingdom successfully.

Confucius was born in a poor family in the year 551 B.C., and he was born in the state of Lu. His original name was K'ung Ch'iu. His father, commander of a district in Lu, died three years after Confucius was born, leaving the family in poverty; but Confucius nevertheless received a fine education. He was married at the age of 19 and had one son and two daughters.

He worked as a keeper of a market. Then he was a farm worker who took care of parks and farm animals. When he was 20, he worked for the governor of his district.

 说明：链接3是上迪斯尼课文时的多媒体。迪斯尼一生创作了许多卡通人物，学生对这些角色都很熟悉，我们可以从学生所熟悉的动画片中引出课文。说明：链接4是一份教案。在上本篇时，可穿插上如何查找百科全书。
