Part one Listening Strategy
Identifying Causes and Effects
Identifying causes and effects is a very important strategy in listening prehension. A cause is the reason why something happens, and an effect is the event that happens as a result of the cause or the reason. So while listening, it is necessary for us to make clear the relationship between a cause and its effect.
Usually, there are some lexical markers indicating the relation between causes and effects.
Cause-effect expressions

Text: Genetically Modified Foods---Feed the World?
u Pre-reading
Warm-up Questions / Activities
1. Purposes:
To familiarize students with the topics in the text
2. Activity one
Directions: Ask Ss watch a video clip and answer the following questions.
1) Have you ever eaten genetically modified (GM) foods? Can you list some GM foods?
Tips:
l Yes, we can buy them from supermarkets.
l No, I still have concerns about their safety and the possible side-effects.
l soybean, corn, cotton and canola, potato, tomato, wheat…
2) What do you know about gene technology?
What do you know about genetically modified foods?
l gene technology, genetic engineering, genetic modification, modern biotechnology…
l molecular biology; transfer genes to reconstruct the genetic materials; the improvement of properties; more nutrition…
l We’re confronted with overpopulation, starvation, undernourishment…
l
3. Activity Two
Directions: Ask Ss to discuss what they think of genetically modified foods.
l Are Genetically Modified Foods the answer?
II. Background Information
Directions:ask Ss to work in groups to find related background information and make presentation in class.
1. Gene Technology
l “Gene technology”, “genetic engineering”, “genetic modification” all mean the same thing. They’re all one type of modern biotechnology.
l Until the 1950s, traditional biotechnology was a pretty imprecise and time-consuming affair. Then scientists discovered that the DNA wrapped up inside the cells of all living things is like a blueprint that is passed from one generation to another.
l Modern biotechnology took off when scientists found that all living things use the same genetic message code.
l Gene technology is just one branch of modern biotechnology used in an attempt to control or modify genes, or most significantly, move them between two unrelated species (this is what’s called rebinant DNA technology).
2. Genetically Modified Foods (GM Foods)
l made from crops that have been given specific traits through genetic engineering
l plant products including: soybean, corn, canola, and cotton seed oil; but they are now also experimenting with animals
l controversial
3. Golden Rice
l genetically engineered to produce beta-carotene, a substance which the body can convert to Vitamin A quickly heralded as a miracle cure for vitamin A deficiency (VAD), a condition which afflicts millions of people in developing countries, especially children and pregnant women
4. Franken-food
l Opponents of genetically modified food often refer to it as “Franken-food”, after Mary Shelley’s character Frankenstein and the monster he creates, in her novel of the same name.
l The term was coined in 1992 by Paul Lewis, an English professor at Boston College who used the word in a letter he wrote to the New York Times in response to the decision of the US Food and Drug Administration to allow panies to market genetically modified food.
