Lead-in归园田居（其一）陶渊明少无适俗韵，性本爱丘山。误落尘网中，一去三十年。羁鸟恋旧林，池鱼思故渊。开荒南野际，守拙归园田。方宅十余亩，草屋八九间。榆柳荫后檐，桃李罗堂前。暧暧远人村，依依墟里烟。狗吠深巷中，鸡鸣桑树颠。户庭无尘杂，虚室有余闲。久在樊笼里，复得返自然。Haveyoureadthispoem?Shareyourunderstandingofit?12Tounderstandthemainideaofthepassage,analysethestructureofit,thereasonwhythetwopoetscamebacktonatureandhownatureshapedtheirwritingstylesTousethekeylanguagepointsfromthepassagecorrectly目标一:Tounderstandthemainideaofthepassage,analysethestructureofit,thereasonwhythetwopoetscamebacktonatureandhownatureshapedtheirwritingstylesActivity1:ReadtheshortintroductionstoTaoYuanmingandHenryDavidThoreauandsharewhatelseyouknowaboutthemwiththeclass.BornintoapooraristocraticfamilyintheEasternJinDynasty,TaoYuanming(365-427)wasoneofChina’sgreatestpoets
