Unit 2 Wildlife Protection

Reading for Writing

【教材分析】

The activity theme is “making effective poster”. The protection of wildlife needs the participation of the whole society. It is imperative to educate the public on wildlife protection and arouse the public’s awareness and enthusiasm for wildlife protection. Teenagers are not only the main body of education, but also the “ambassador” of publicity and promotion. To make posters, students need to understand and study the situation of endangered animals and think about protection measures. In the process of reading and understanding the content of posters and making posters, students should be trained to master and use the style of posters, and their social responsibility and sense of responsibility should be cultivated.

The reading text is two posters. The first poster, “give ugly a chance!” calls on people to protect all kinds of wild animals and not treat them differently because of personal likes and dislikes. No matter how beautiful or ugly animals are, they have the meaning and value of existence. The world is beautiful because of the diversity of biology. The article uses the tone of statement to make people unconsciously accept the author’s point of view. The second POSTER “don’t make paper with my home!” adopts anthropomorphic rhetoric and takes koala’s heart cry as the title, criticizing those behaviors of deforestation and destruction of animal homes. The text is a progressive explanation of the title. Exclamatory sentences and rhetorical sentences are used in this paper, which express the author’s attitude and point of view. In addition, the title of these two posters uses exclamation sentences with strong appeal and emotional color, coupled with vivid pictures, making the posters more powerful.

Step 5: Use what you have learnt to write an English poster:

Save Cute Pandas

Not only is the giant panda a rare animal in China but also one of the rarest animals on the earth. As more and more habitats are being destroyed and most of the bamboo has been cut down, it is becoming more and more difficult for giant pandas to find food for themselves. So they are becoming extinct. To save giant pandas, our government has set up some nature reserves. But more funds and attention are needed to carry out this important rescue project.
