(Show the following on the screen.) 1.What life will be like in the future is difficult ot predict. 2.They are careful about what they eat and exercise regularly. 3.The schools of the future will proba-bly be quite different from what they are today. 4.We can not be sure whether our dreams will come true，but we can at least be hopeful that… 5.If we learn to accept change and ap-preciate what is new and different,we will be well-prepared for whatever the future may have in store. (Teacher asks the students to do it one by one.) S1：“What life will be like in the future”is used as the subject. S2：“What they eat and exercise regular-ly”is the object of preposition“about”. S3：“What they are today”is the object of preposition“from”. S4：“Whether our dreams will come true”is used as the predicative. S5：“What is new and different”is used as the object of verb“appreciate”and “whatever the future may have in store”serves as the object of preposi-tion“for” Step Ⅳ Practice T：OK.Look at Part 2 on Page 46.Use the expressions in the right box to change your questions about the fu-ture in the left box into Noun Clauses.You may do like this. e.g.How we should use modern tech-nology is a big issue.But you should pay attention to the word order in the Notm Clause.Normal word order is used in it.Do you understand? Ss：Yes. (Give the students three minutes to practise and then ask some of the students to read out their sentences. One student,one sentence.) Suggested answers： 1.I can’t imagine what the advantages of e-schools are. 2.Scientists have(not)found answers to the question why there is no life on the moon. 3.The problem is how we should use modern technology. 4.We cannot be sure when we’ll be able to travel in space. 5.They are worried about whether robots will be smarter than people. 6.We cannot be sure whether the future will be better. T：Now let’s do the exercise in Part 3.The main purpose of this exercise is to help you understand the differences between a Noun Clause and an Attrib-utive C1ause.Who’d like to tell me the differences between them? S：I’d Iike to try.A Noun Clause is used as a subject，object，predicative or op- positive in the main clause.An Attrib-utive Clause serves as an attribute to some noun or pronoun in the main clause，and it is often placed after this noun or pronoun.The Attributive Clause is introduced by the relative pronouns and the relative adverbs. T：Very good.Sit down please.Now please read the sentences in Part 3 first.Then identify the type of clause in the sentences.If it is a Noun C1ause，write“NC”;if it is an Attributive C1ause，write“AC”.Are you clear?
