1. Greeting

2. Leading-in

教师活动：教师通过问问题激发学生的兴趣。

What would you do if you could time travel?

If I could time travel, I could see the results of my actions or other people's actions, and if the results were bad, I could travel back to the present time, too, and then take another course of action that had a better outcome. But I must learn not to depend on time travel and “cheat” every time when I failed or met something bad. I will choose the most important moment to return and not to change others fates without consideration.

教师简要介绍作品背景和作者，引导学生观察教材中的图片，思考以下问题。

Open queations:

Look at the portrait. Who is he?
Look at the pictures on pages 8 and 9. What does the time machine look like? How is it different from what you expected?

二、     While-class

（1）          学生活动：快速阅读语篇完成活动2。教师利用流程图帮助梳理语篇中启动时间机器的次数。

（2）学生活动：学生精读语篇，完成活动3。

1. How does the Time Traveller first know he has travelled through time?
He saw the clock move forwards.

2. How does the Time Traveller feel when travelling through time? What rhetorical devices does the writer use to describe his feelings?

It felt strange and unpleasant. He uses the simile: “It felt like I was being driven fast on a winding road.”

3. Why is the Time Traveller worried about stopping the machine?

If he stopped and the same space was being occupied by something else, they would be forced together and explode like a bomb.

4. Where does the Time Machine arrive when the man finally stops it?

In some mud in the rain.
（3）学生活动：讨论活动4中的问题。根据问题提示，口头续编故事结尾。

What date do you think it is when the Time Traveller finally stops?

What do you think is different about that time from the time he left?

Who or what do you think the Time Traveller will meet?

What adventures do you think he will have in the future?

Do you think he will ever return to his own time?
The Time Traveller stops in the year802701. The whole earth looks like a garden with beautiful, happy people called Eloi who play all the time, but this hides a horrible truth; there is a whole world of people called Morlocks who live underground in a dark, mechanised society who use the Eloi as a source of food. The Time Traveller meets an Eloi woman and falls in love with her. The Time Traveller and the Eloi woman are attacked by Morlocks. He is able to escape, but he loses contact with the woman and perhaps she is killed. The Morlocks then steal the Time Machine and use it as bait to capture and kill the Time Traveller. However, once he is in the Time Machine, he pulls the lever and begins to travel in time again and is able to make his escape. He travels 30 million years into the future to see the sun cool and the earth turn into a lifeless planet. He then travels back to the time from where he started out, only to find that three hours have passed.
（4）学生活动：结合活动5当中的问题，就如何深化自创故事的现实意义展开讨论。

1. Think about what your machine will look like. Is it a vehicle or a machine?

2. How does your time machine work? What do you have to do to make it work?

3. What period in time do you want to travel to? Think about interesting things and people you would like to see there.

4. Imagine what it might feel like to travel through time. Think of words to describe this and make your story as vivid as possible.

5. Include rhetorical devices in your story, like metaphors, similes, overstatements, etc.

三、After-class

学生完成故事初稿。小组采取“文学圈”（Literature Circles）的形式，根据科幻作品的特点逐一评价组内作品并进行修改。

第一步：组员分工，设置不同身份与工作任务，包括组织者（负责组织小组讨论）、科学家（专注习作中的科学现象）、哲学家（专注习作中涉及文化、哲理等方面的内容）、文学家（专注习作中文学修辞手法的应用）和语言学家（帮助组员减少语言错误，完善语言表达）等。

第二步：根据各自的身份与角色，逐一对作品进行阅读分析，提出修改完善作品的意见。

每组推选一篇作品进行展示，师生共同点评，可就故事的新颖性、语言的感染力等对作品进行多角度的评价。各组根据评价进一步完善作品。

作品展示：

I thought this summer vacation at Aunt Jenny's would go as interesting as watching paint dry. Hers was an old house, built before time began, it seemed. One hundred years ago it was often filled with people coming to stay for the summer-it was such large, grand house that there would be thirty or forty guests at a time, and the host barely knew who some of them were. Then there was the host himself-my great grandfather. He was widely thought of as the smartest, funniest man of his age, and people would come from all over the world to see him.

But that was all in the past. Now the only person who lived here was Aunt Jenny, who lived in one small part of the house and kept the rest closed up. Then I caught the sun shining in my eyes from a tall mirror in the hallway.

"How pretty! It must be a hundred years old. If only I could go back and see my great grandfather! "I said, cleaning the dirt off the mirror with my hand. Suddenly, the shiny mirror became a sea of clouds and I felt myself being pulled inside it. The world began to spin, and I felt confused.

Then, just like that, everything stopped. I looked around, and there I was with the mirror and in the same hall, but things were different. The family photos on the wall were now replaced by paintings of people I did not recognise. The furniture all looked new but old-fashioned at the same time. "I must be one hundred years into the past!" I thought to myself. Then a woman wearing old-fashioned clothing came down the hall. Drawing near, she frowned and said, "Oh, that won't do! The party starts in twenty minutes and you are still in casual clothes! What? You didn't bring anything? I've got a lovely dress you can borrow. I think it will just fit. "She led me away to her room and helped me get dressed like I was an old friend, and then together we went down to the parlour, which was filled with people dressed in fine clothes gathering around my great grandfather, listening to every word he said.

I spent the summer there, pretending to be a distant cousin from the city who was there on holiday. No one seemed to mind or care, as my great grandfather was quite wealthy and always had lots of guests. I tried to spend as much time as possible with my great grandfather and his friends, and it was the most wonderful time of my life. Then when the end of summer drew near, I went back to the mirror and rubbed it with my hand again. I found myself back in the same hall, but in modern time. Not a minute had passed. Then I realised that I still had a full summer ahead at boring Aunt Jenny's. "Now what am I going to do?" I asked myself.
