亲爱的小宝贝们，你们相信有外星人吗？他们来地球啦！今天我们一起来阅读FIVE LITTLE MEN IN A FLYING SAUCER这册绘本，看看外星人来地球都看到了什么？注：视频里面是用“the earth”而不是&the world&，意思都是一样的。当五个小外星人从外太空来访问地球，他们左看看右看看，不喜欢眼前看到的地球遭到破坏和忽视的种种景象，随处排污水的工厂、马路上拥堵的车、被砍光的森林和流离失所的动物们、被漏油的船污染的南极、堆积如山的垃圾，于是他们一个个相继飞走了。因此，他们没有看到地球上仍有一处美丽安宁的地方。有一天，当五个小外星人重返地球时，他们左看看右看看，发现这片乐土，于是他们决定留下来……本绘本通过外星人的观察角度来引申出环保的主题，视角非常独特，画风简单却很细致，画的内容丰富却很通俗易懂，你可以在书中找到很多不同的动物和交通工具、各种场景，角色的表情动作（欢喜忧伤、嬉戏玩耍）都在细节体现得很完善。同时，这本洞洞书的设计也相当巧妙，孩子们可以边玩边唱边观察思考，是一本很有教育意义的书。flying saucer飞碟alien ['eli?n] “外星人”，书中没出现这个单词，little man指的就是外星人了。sight [sa?t] &景象，视野，视力&the world 这里指的是“地球”，主要是人文组成的世界，从外星人的角度，来地球探索的主要是我们的文明。除此之外，the earth, the globe都是指“地球”，the earth意义比较泛，强调人文和自然共同组成的世界。the globe多为学术上的讲法或意指单纯的球体。fly round &飞来飞去，急勿勿地走&fly away &离开，飞离&绘本里面单词句式并不多，都是蛮简单的单词和句式，基本上读几遍就可以背起来了，很好掌握。第1页：5个小外星人从外太空向地球靠近，我们可以看到地球周围有不同的星球，还有从地球外看到的地球上各种工厂肆意排污的景象，5个小外星左看看右看看，到处是污染，好沮丧失望，有一个小外星人看到就飞走了。第2页：4个小外星人离地球越来越近，他们从云层往下看，左看看右看看，看到了拥堵的交通，车多如麻，他们都感到好惊讶，有个小外星人看到这种景象，难以忍受就飞走了。第3页：3个小外星人飞到地球上空，他们左看看右看看，看到了热带雨林里面的树木已被砍伐大半，远处还有熊熊大火在燃烧，动物们看起来都好忧伤，他们失去了自己的家园以及赖以生存的食物来源，动物的数量越来越少的，它们越来越孤独……小外星人看了都好伤心，有个小外星人就飞走了。第4页：2个小外星人飞到南极，他们左看看右看看，看到有一艘油轮漏油了，大量的油渗入到大海，污染了海洋，有一条鲸鱼被困在油污里面，性命危在旦夕，还有好多的企鹅，可怜巴巴地看着自己的家园被破坏……2个小外星人实在是看不下去了，有一个小外星飞走了。第5页：1个小外星人孤怜怜地坐着飞碟来到一处地方，他左看看，右看看，看到堆积如山的垃圾场，各种生活垃圾没有经过合理的处理就堆放在那里，这对环境得有多大的影响，周围都成废土了……他看了有点忧伤，于是决定飞走了。第6页：5个小外星人都飞走了，飞碟空无一人，飞到一个新地方。一架飞机腾空而过，我们看到下面有好茂密的森林，海水也是湛蓝色的……但是小外星人都飞走了，没人欣赏这里的风景。第7页：5个小外星人又重返地球，他们这次看到了一片还不错的景象，绿树草地，有些人在植树，有些人在打球，瞧，有两个散步的人在朝外星人们招手呢。蜿蜒的沙滩像一条黄色的绸带，海洋不断地涌到海滩上来。海洋里面，有好几个风力发电机，有艘帆船在海面上行驶。太阳照着大海，两条鲸鱼欢快地喷水嬉戏，还有海豚跃出海面……5个小外星人喜出望外，他们决定留下来，飞碟接收到信号，放下梯子。之前飞走的小外星人，本来空空无人的飞碟，通过洞洞，又奇妙地组合在一起。小朋友可以边玩边看，很有乐趣。太阳系大八行星（按离太阳由近到远排序）：水星、金星、地球、火星、木星、土星、天王星、海王星。宇宙是个奥秘无穷的地方，我们居住的地球是目前太阳系唯一有生命的星球。人类一直在探索，不断挖掘出星空里面的故事。太阳系行星之最：密度最大--地球亮度之最--金星肉眼能看到的最远的行星--天王星质量体积最大--木星，比太阳系其它行星质量总和还要大。行星环之最--土星，木星、土星、天王星、海王星周围都有大小、形态各异的行星环，最壮观的当属土星。绘本第1页左上角那个指的应该就是土星。磁场之最--木星，其磁场强度比地球高10倍。高山之最--火星的奥林匹斯山，海拔高度2.13万米，为太阳系最高的山。争议之最--冥王星，2006年之前，它是太阳系9大行星之一，日下午，在第26届国际天文联合会通过决议，由天文学家以投票正式将冥王星划为矮行星，自行星之列中除名。2015年，“新视野”号首次飞掠冥王星重测其直径，又引发了让它重返行星行列的热议。《E.T.》是由史蒂文·斯皮尔伯格执导的科幻电影。影片描述了一个十岁男孩艾里奥特与迷失的外星造访者E.T.建立了纯真友谊，并帮助他找到回家方法的温馨故事。这是一部引人深思的好电影。豆豆最近每次选书都喜欢选这本，小朋友的视角跟大人真是不一样，对我来说，这本环保主题他是理解不了的，只能当儿歌来学学。有时，我会动起来，用手势或者身体边读边演给他看，比如飞碟飞来飞去，外星人飞走了……他有时也跟着动起来，对于能量无限好的他，是个很不错消耗体力的的游戏。如果是有很多个小伙伴，可以一起扮演外星人，更有趣。套手指：把五个外星人分别画成手指大小的头像，套在手指上，跟宝贝一起做游戏。当一个外星人飞走，就把头像取下，套到另外一只手上（也可以套在孩子手指上）。豆豆和我一起参与，乐得不行。小小的纸片，他自己玩弄了许久。找一找1. 这五个小外星人，长得有什么不同吗？长相：五个小外星人都是绿色的皮肤，肤色深浅有点差别。颜色：每个小外星人都穿着不同颜色的衣服，一个穿紫红色衣服背着绿色的飞行器，一个穿紫色衣服背着橙色的飞行器，一个穿黄色衣服背着紫色的飞行器，一个穿白色衣服背着红色的飞行器，一个穿着橙色衣服背着蓝色飞行器。天线：每个小外星人头顶上的天线也是不同的呢，有圆形，圆圈，U型，尖角，星星五种形状。耳朵：有的耳朵大而长，有的耳朵小而短。亲爱的小朋友，你还能找出什么不同点吗？2. 书中有什么动物、交通工具呀？每一页都有不同的交通工具，而第3、4、7有不同的动物，跟爸爸妈妈一起找找吧。如果你是会乐器的妈妈，还可以给宝贝演奏下这首歌曲。学习左右方向：可以让小朋友举起左手，再举起右手，学习方向的辨识。培养环保的生活习惯：垃圾分类、出门不乱丢垃圾，节约用水用电、资源合理利用，素质教育从娃抓起。培养环保意识：日本：幼儿园的小朋友就知道怎么分类垃圾，政府也是大力宣传垃圾分类，比如说，横滨市向市民发放了一本27页的垃圾分类手册。日本幼儿园还特别注重引导幼儿进行密切接触自然的游戏和在自然中进行的游戏。英国：教育五六岁的孩子应该知道哪些是经再生制造的“环保餐具”。德国挪威：鼓励孩子亲近自然，户外设施与大自然浑然天成，激发孩子们对大自然的热爱从而培养他们的环保意识。观测星球，你相信有外星人吗？你想看到天上的星星其实都是长什么样子的吗？带着孩子去天文馆，亲自用天文望远镜探寻星空的奥秘，想必孩子们都会非常兴奋的，培养孩子的兴趣，未来的科学家就在他们之中哦。Five little men in a flying saucer flew round the world one day.有一天，五个小外星人坐着飞碟绕着地球飞。They looked left and right, but they didn’t like the sight...他们左看看右看看，却不喜欢眼前的景象……...so&one man flew away!于是，一个小外星人飞走了！Four little men in a flying saucer flew round the world one day.有一天，四个小外星人坐着飞碟绕着地球飞。They looked left and right, but they didn’t like the sight...他们左看看右看看，却不喜欢眼前的景象……...so&one man flew away!于是，一个小外星人飞走了！Three little men in a flying saucer flew round the world one day.有一天，三个小外星人坐着飞碟绕着地球飞。They looked left and right, but they didn’t like the sight......so&one man flew away!于是，一个小外星人飞走了！Two little men in a flying saucer flew round the world one day.有一天，两个小外星人坐着飞碟绕着地球飞。They looked left and right, but they didn’t like the sight...他们左看看右看看，却不喜欢眼前的景象……...so one man flew away.于是，一个小外星人飞走了！One little men in a flying saucer flew round the world one day.有一天，一个小外星人坐着飞碟绕着地球飞。He looked left and right, but he didn’t like the sight...他左看看右看看，却不喜欢眼前的景象……...so then he flew away.于是，他飞走了！No little man in a flying saucer flew round the world one day.有一天，没有小外星人坐着飞碟绕着地球飞。Not one looked left and right, so nobody saw the sight...没人左看看右看看，所以没人看到眼前的景象……...so no one flew away!所以没人飞走Five little men in a flying saucer came back to the world one day.有一天，五个小外星人坐着飞碟重返地球。They looked left and right, and they really liked the sight..他们左看看右看看，非常喜欢眼前的景象……...so they decided to stay!所以他们决定留下来！长按，识别二维码，加关注

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
Literary Archive Foundation
Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
array of equipment including outdated equipment.
Many small donations
($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
status with the IRS.
The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
with these requirements.
We do not solicit donations in locations
where we have not received written confirmation of compliance.
SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
particular state visit http://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf
While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
approach us with offers to donate.
International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
outside the United States.
U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.

Section 5.
General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
Professor Michael S. Hart is the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
with anyone.
For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
unless a copyright notice is included.
Thus, we do not necessarily
keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
Each eBook is in a subdirectory of the same number as the eBook's
eBook number, often in several formats including plain vanilla ASCII,
compressed (zipped), HTML and others.
Corrected EDITIONS of our eBooks replace the old file and take over
the old filename and etext number.
The replaced older file is renamed.
VERSIONS based on separate sources are treated as new eBooks receiving
new filenames and etext numbers.
Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
EBooks posted prior to November 2003, with eBook numbers BELOW #10000,
are filed in directories based on their release date.
If you want to
download any of these eBooks directly, rather than using the regular
search system you may utilize the following addresses and just
download by the etext year.
(Or /etext 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 99,
98, 97, 96, 95, 94, 93, 92, 92, 91 or 90)
EBooks posted since November 2003, with etext numbers OVER #10000, are
filed in a different way.
The year of a release date is no longer part
of the directory path.
The path is based on the etext number (which is
identical to the filename).
The path to the file is made up of single
digits corresponding to all but the last digit in the filename.
example an eBook of filename 10234 would be found at:
http://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/1/0/2/3/10234
or filename 24689 would be found at:
