一）听力部分
1.听句子，选图片
96%学生正确，考察重点为学生对所听句子的理解，并能够根据句子中的信息，把对应的图片选出来。其中第三小题有个别学生会出错，究其原因是对课文中一单元最后的拓展部分I like sweets. I like the new shoes . I like the new dress .中的单词意义没有充分的掌握的缘故，教师在本学期期末复习时应对这一容做针对性的复习。第二小题和第四小题中也有个别学生出错，但是是个别现象，究其原因，应该是个别学生对职业的单词意义掌握的不够牢固，老师除了在课上集体复习外，还应该对个别学生进行针对性的辅导，应该能起到比较好的效果。
2.听录音，判断正误
90%的学生正确考察的学生用句子来描述图片的能力，不只是单纯的图片和单词对应。题目较为灵活，是老师在其中复习时所忽略的一部分容。所以学生的出错率很高，尤其是1，6，5这三个小题。因为这三道题目都是用两句话，或是和课本上不同的句子来描述的。学生做错，一是因为老师没有针对性的复习图片，而是因为学生对所学容掌握的比较死板，在今后的教学中，教师可以多尝试看图说话的方式来让学生用所学的句子来描述图片，达到活学活用，而不是只是和课本上对应的词对词，句对句能读对而已。
3. 听录音，选词语
92%学生正确。本题主要考察书中所学的重点单词的认读，学生掌握的基本情况还是可以的，但是也有一些同学对认读单词掌握的不好，老师可以根据学生情况个别辅导，并且要在全班经常性的进行复习，在平时的教学中就因该把这些词语拿出来，让孩子们脫離開图片来认读。达到最终认读单词的目的。
4. 听录音，选句子
98%学生正确，本题主要考察学生课本所学的重点句型的掌握，要能够认读重点句型。由于平时早读课上，老师强调让学生指读单词，并且在复习课上老师叶着重的复习了句型的认读，所以这一题，学生的掌握情况还是不错的。只有个别同学会错，老师可一采取个别辅导的方式去针对性辅导。但是，老师在这句型认读方面也因该稍微腾出一点时间来给看图片，描述图片这一方面的练习来增强孩子的语言综合运用能力。

小学英语期末试卷分析
2009-2010学年度下学期英语期末考试试卷分析学生成绩分析：我校这次的英语成绩从试卷情况来看，学生成绩拉开了档次，尖子生仍然能考满分和90多分，中上等学生能考80多分，中等学生能考70多分或80多分，学困生能考60多分甚至不及格，避免了以往大面积的满分和90多分现象，同时也给学生敲响警钟，即不认真上好每一节课就不能取得好成绩。从成绩分布来看，这次出题的难易程度是适当的，出题方向是正确的，应该说这套试卷是成功的，起到了诊断教学、反馈教学、指导教学的目的。本次考试三年级平均分是91.76 权重得分是97.53.。镇内名次是第一名。四年级平均分是68.29。权重得分是52.63。镇内名次是第四名。五年级平均分是74.21权重得分是67.26。镇内名次是第三名。六年级平均分是66.48。权重是49.20。镇内名次是第二名。 优生率的巩固和增长：三年级优生率有所巩固和增长。四、五、六年级的优生率有些下降。需要教师在今后做大量的培优工作。 差生的转化率：三年级和五年级的差生率转化的较多。四年级和六年级的差生率转化的很少。需要我们教师在今后做大量的辅差工作。 试题分析： （一）听力部分 这次的三，四、五、六年级听力第一题都是听录音选单词，错误率较少。第二题是听音判断或者听音排序。后两题多是听音选图、选句子、选答语等。这些试题主要考虑到小学生的认识能力有限，采用大量的图片作为选项，减少文字阅读量，从而降低难度，让学生边听录音，边看图片并做出选择、判断，灵活真实地考查学生是否能听懂这些简单配有图片的问题，而且又能培养学生的实际动手能力，符合儿童心理特征。但是教师和学生对试卷也有自己的看法，学生普遍的反映是四年级和六年级最后一题录音听不懂，教师的议论在于四年级的试题难度。 （二）笔试部分 笔试部分主要是对语言知识的运用能力、阅读能力、初步的书写能力进行了考察，试题提供了恰当的语境。连贯上下文，同时还配以图片，给学生

小学英语期末考试试卷分析
前三个单元学完了，Recycle 1的本课时一篇《seasons 》文章写得很美，学生也用心体会了其中的美景。下面的练习第二题是写写自己城市的四季，配套练习册的练习题也是写出”my favourie season”,要求不少于50个单词。看到这个要求，很多同学感觉很难，50个词对他们来说太多了。但是，欣赏完这几篇文章，大部分学生心里就有数了。首先我们以spring 为例进行描述。从天气、颜色、穿着、饮食和干什么等方面进行描述。每一个方面，都请同学站起来大声描述，就组成了一小篇文章：I like spring best. It's warm. It's green. I wear shirt. I can fly kites. 有关四季的文章连起来，早就超过了50个单词。这种文章，大部分学生都能轻松的完成。但是对于词汇丰富的学生来说，感觉意犹未尽，这种描写有些枯燥，可以加入一些形容词，让句子更加优美。如：Spring is my favourite season. It always warm and sunny. Sometimes it rainy.The class is green .The flowers are red. I can wear my beautiful shirt. I can fly kites with my friend.这样描写，文章就更生动了。在以后的教学中，应注意针对不同层次的学生布置任务，让优秀的学生能吃得饱，让基础差些的学生也能吃得了。这样下来，学生就不但能描述自己最喜欢的季节，并能根据个人能力分层次完成。 试卷分析： 本套试题仍然分为笔试和听力两部分，在听力环节中使用电脑播放。这一单元的试题无论是听力还是笔试，学生的完成情况都不理想。分心发现，听力失分主要是因为播放设备的发音不清，并且个别单词的发音与教材上的不同造成的。笔试部分的失分主要就是不用心、不动脑。现在就出错较多的题目进行分析：听力部分 一、听录音、选出所听到的单词6.brown其实这个题很清楚，其它两个单词的末尾发音都有区别，主要就是学生对以前的单词遗忘严重。 二、听音、判断对错5.I like summer because I like summer vacation.这个题出错就是看图不清，只看见了杯子，没看见July和August。9. Why do you like winter? Because I often make a snowman. 学生只在意卷中意思在雪地里玩，其实堆雪人

董亚芬大学英语精读(第三版)第1册教案Unit3解析
Unit 3 The Present I. Background information 1. Traditional Birthday Celebration in Western Countries In the West, it is customary to hold a party in celebration of a person’s birthday. The guests will come to the party with birthday presents and say “Happy Birthday” to the birthday person. The guests then watch him or her open the presents and he or she thanks them for the presents they have brought. At the party drinks and food are served. Toward the end of the dinner the lights in the room are turned off, and someone comes in from another room with a cake on which are lighted candles, one for each year. At the sight of the cake the guests begin singing “Happy Birthday to You” and the birthday person makes a wish before he or she blows out the candles on the cake. It is said that the wish will come true if all the candles go out in one puff. After that, the cake is cut in slices usually by the birthday person, one piece for each guest.

Important birthdays in the West At 21, the age of majority (now lowered to 18 in many countries), one becomes an adult. Usually the family has a big party for the new adult and a major present—an expensive watch or a car—is given him or her. The present, of course, various from family to family. Any birthday past 70 is celebrated in a special way by family members just because the birthday person is getting old and may die before another birthday comes round. That is why the author of The Present says “eighty was a special birthday”. And then, 100—the centennial birthday—is generally regarded as an unusual occasion because few people reach it. The centenarian may even receive a telegram or a letter of congratulations from prominent political figures, such as the Prime Minister and the Queen if the anniversary is celebrated in Britain. Again the family may hold a party attended by relatives and surviving friends as well. Among other things the centenarian takes delight in counting great grandchildren and grandchildren at the party.
