Don’t exaggerate something.ResourcesAmerican English and British English share a lot of similarities. However, there are still some differences. These differences are considered to be caused by several factors, such as different national histories, cultural development and the influences of local and regional idioms and expressions. Some words share the same pronunciation while their spellings vary a bit, for example, colour and color, cheque and check, realise and realize. In addition, different words are used to indicate the same thing. For example, ‘toilet’ in British English is ‘rest room’ in American English. Likewise ‘trousers’ are ‘pants’, ‘cooker’ is ‘stove’ and ‘angry’ is ‘mad’.。

牛津高中英语教学设计单元：Unit 2 Growing pains板块：Word powerThoughts on the design:本节课是以听、说、读为主的词汇拓展教学课。
本节课的设计在教材原有的基础上增加了语言信息的输入：一方面提高了学生对语言的直观的感性认识；另一方面信息的选择也注重通过情感教育增加学生对语言的情感融入。
此外，本节课对于教材的处理有所侧重，并适当延伸。
在教授词汇知识和学习策略的同时，适当增加了词汇所蕴含的文化知识的输入。
整节课应当在师生的情感互动、学生的情感融入和师生共同的情感体验的过程中进行。
Teaching aims:After learning this session, the students will be able to know and recognize some differences between American and British English, and some colloquialisms as well. With this teaching design, the students will experience more differences between American and British language and culture. Besides, the students will obtain more cultural background information as well as more interest in English language and culture.Teaching procedures:Step 1Show a poster and introduce the movie «the Parent Trap».Show two questions about the movie: (1) What’s the difference between the twins? (2) Can you tell Annie from Hallie in the movie? Try to find the answers while watching the following movies and reading the texts concerned.[Explanation]本单元的主题是成长，因此向学生推荐这部有关成长的电影。
下面将通过视频与文本的形式具体讲述电影情节，因此此处只需简单介绍以引入下面的主题。
The Parent Trap, presented by Disney in 1998, tells a story of a pair of twins getting reunited after 11 years separation since birth. Lindsay Lohan elegantly played two main characters, the twins, one from the UK and the other from the USA.说明：在介绍过程中，教师宜强调双胞胎姐妹分别来自英国和美国，提醒学生留心两人语言上的差异。
也即随后的两个问题。
这两个问题只需提出而不需要学生回答，仅仅要求学生在下面欣赏和阅读的过程中思考。
Step 2Show the movies.Show the texts, and fill in the blanks according to the movies.Chapter I MeetingAt Maine Summer Camp, eleven-year olds Californian Hallie Parker and Londoner Annie James meet each other. Though they look surprisingly ________ to one another, they develop a ________ for each other, and attempt to play tricks on one another in a series of childish competitions. (alike, dislike)Chapter II RealizationFinally, both girls are punished to stay together in an isolation cabin, where they learn that they have much in ________. They then realize that they are in fact ________ sisters that were separated at birth. They each have one half of the same photograph, a wedding picture that their _________ took eleven years and nine months ago. (common, twin, parents)Chapter III PlanDesperately wanting to meet the other parent they’ve n ever seen since ________, the sisters hatch a plan: Hallie will return to London ________ as Annie, and Annie will return to California as Hallie. Of course, the plan will eventually be __________, and the two girls imagine their parents having to meet after 11 years in order to change them back. (birth, acting, discovered)Chapter IV DiscoveryAfter some training lessons, where they each learn about one another, they head 'home' separately, and the plan begins. Due to their slightly different ________, and their greatly different manners, they are soon discovered one after another. With the help of others, they continue with their plan to bring their parents back together again. (language)Chapter V Re-unionIn the end, of course, they _______ in bringing the whole family together as one. (succeed)[Explanation]PPT第5到14页是一个整体，通过该电影的几段剪辑和文字叙述简单地介绍了这个故事。
电影片段的播放只需要单击电影画面即可。
文本部分的填空简单检测学生对所看内容的掌握。
整个故事分了五个章节：第一章“meeting”是两姐妹相会；第二章“realization”是姐妹俩发现真相；第三章“plan”是姐妹俩策划交换身份的情节；第四章“discovery”有两段剪辑，分别介绍俩姐妹各自被发现的过程；第五章“re-union”没有视频，直接通过文字介绍故事结局。
整个过程教师宜以口述来过渡五个部分，并适当加入情感因素。
Step 3Finish the exercise of true or false.1) Annie is from the USA while Hallie is from the UK. (F)2) They’ve never met each other before. (T)3) They recognize one another at the first sight. (F)4) They each have one half of the same picture. (T)5) According to their plan, Hallie will go to California, and Annie, London. (F)6) The language they speak is completely different. (F)[Explanation]这部分是对故事内容的回顾检测。
Step 4Show the two questions at the beginning of the class: (1) What’s the difference between the twins? (2) Can you tell Annie from Hallie in the movie? Ask students to discuss about them.Annie Halliefrom London, UK California, USAlanguage British English American Englishexamples give me a fright scare me dizzy woozyMy God! [ɒ] My God! [ɑː][Explanation]此时对于前面提出的两个问题，学生应该心里有数了，但是仍然很难用语言来表述清楚。
因此，紧接着的表格简化问题，易于学生回答。
