Unit 2 English around the world学科:English 授课班级:Senior One 执教教师:授课时间:I.教学内容分析本单元通过对“世界英语”这一话题的探讨,以加强学生对英语语言的了解,对当代语言特别是英语发展趋势的了解。
世界在变化、时代在发展、社会在前进,作为人类交流的工具,语言必然随着时代的发展而变化,特别是英语,这一被公认的通用语言的变化更是让人始料不及。
由于英语在世界上的重要地位和它的广泛使用,各国人民在使用英语的过程中不断发展、改进、更新他们使用的英语和本国语。
这种不断的吸收、交融、容纳、创新就形成了各种各样带有某个国家、某个民族、或某个地区特色的英语。
II.教学重点和难点(一)了解英语在世界上的发展状况,以及各种各样带有民族、地域特色的英语。
(二)了解英语和美语的一些基本的差异,像单词的拼写,单词的发音,句式结构等。
尤其是一些常用词。
(三)掌握本单元教学目的和要求中的词汇的用法。
(四)学会英语中有关交际困难的表达法,,如Pardon? I beg your pardon?熟练掌握祈使句及其间接引语的表达法。

One is British English and the other is American English. Do you know the differences between them? The differences between the British and American English are spelling, pronunciation,usage and the most important is culture.Step 2. Warming UpPurpose: To make students understand the differences between American and British English1. Pair work:(1) Get Ss to discuss other words that they have learned.(2) Give Ss some words and expressions and have a discussion①Words:英美电影films movies 旁注汽油petrol gas, gasoline图钉drawing thumb tack钞票banknote bill跳远long jump broad jump糖果sweets candy(1)Divide Ss into groups and ask them to make a dialogue.(2)Let Ss practice the dialogue with their partners.Periods 2 Pre-reading and ReadingTeaching Goals:1.Get Ss to learn about English spoken around the world2.Improve Ss’ reading ability, especially the skills of summarizing, word guessing andscanning.3.Get Ss to realize the importance of learning English and of love of our own country.4.Encourage Ss to think and talk in English through communicative tasks and provideSs with chances of cooperation.Teaching Procedures:Step 1. Leading-inPresent Ss with the names of seven countries (the UK, the USA, Canada, Australia, South Africa, Ireland and New Zealand), and ask S s: “Is there any relationship between these 7 countries?” Allow Ss to show their own opinions. The answer is that English is the mother tongue to the people in these 7 countries.1.Present Ss with the names of some other countries: India, Pakistan, Nigeria and thePhilippines. Then ask: “Is English spoken in these countries?” Allow Ss to show their own opinions. English is used as an official language in these countries, which is spoken on formal occasions like governing, schooling and news reporting.2.Also in many countries, English is learned as a foreign language, like in China, Japan,France and so on. So although English doesn’t have the most speakers in the world, it is the most popular language all over the world. Today we’re going to read a lesson entitled English around the world.Step 2. Reading1.Skimming:Get Ss to read through the passage and find the topic sentence of each paragraph.Para 1 Today, more people speak English as their first, second or foreign language than ever before.Para 2 Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don’t speak the same kind of English.Para 3 All languages change when cultures communicate with one another.Para 4 English is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia.2. ScanningPurpose: To get Ss to have some details in the text.Read the text quickly and try to get some details from the text. Work in pairs and try to ask and answer questions from the text. Questions can be like these.Q1. How many people spoke English at the end of the 16th century? Where did they live?Q2. Why is English to be spoken in many other countries in the next century?Q3. Which country has the largest number of English speakers?Q4. Why has English changed over time?Q5. Why does India have a very large number of English speakers?Suggested answers:A1. At the end of the 16th century, about five to seven million people spoke English.A2. In the next century, people from England started moving to other parts of the world,so English began to be spoken in many other countries.A3. China may have the largest number of English speakers.A4.Because all languages change when cultures communicate with one another.A5.India has a very large number of English speakers. This is because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947.3.Careful reading:Get Ss to read the passage carefully again and meanwhile try to guess the meaning of the following words or phrases: even if, come up, actually, play a role, vocabulary, usage, identity , government.even if=even though: in spite of the fact; no matter whetherplay a role: to be involved in an activityactually: really; in factvocabulary: all the words and phrases you learnsuch as: for exampleelevator: a machine used for moving people or things up and down4.After reading:Allow Ss to discuss with their partners the meaning of the new words. Then let some Ss explain the words. The teacher can give some further explanations if necessary.5.Answer these questions.(1) Do you think what kind of English you learn matters? Why?(2) Why do you think people all over the world want to learn English?(3) Give Ss chances to ask each other questions on the passage.6.

IndiaD. BritainSuggested Answers: (1) A (2) D (3) C (4) D (5) BStep 3. Discussion1.After reading the passage, we’ve learned so much about English spoken around theworld. Do you think it’s necessary to have a good knowledge of English? Why do you think so? Please form groups of four and discuss these questions with your partners.(The teacher should walk around to provide any necessary help.)2.Give the students chances to express their opinions freely.3.Summary by the teacher:Through learning this passage, we have got to know that English is becoming more and more popular all over the world now. So English learning seems important to everyone, especially us students of the new century. With China’s entry into WTO, English will play a more important part in business, in tourism, and even in people’s daily life. So it’s no doubt that everyone should have a good knowledge of English. And I hope every one in our class can make an effort to learn English well. But on the other hand, it does n’t mean English is better than Chinese just as some students said just now. We must keep it in mind that one’s mother tongue is the most beautiful language in the world. The reason why we learn English is that we should thus be more capable of building up our country(It’s a good chance to lead the students to love our own country as well as to learn English well.)Step 4. Words and expressions1. Native English speakers can understand each other even if theydon’t speak the same kind of English .以英语作为母语的人,即使他们讲的英语不尽相同,也可以相互交流。
高中英语 Unit2 English around the world 教材导学 新人教版必修1
Unit 2 English around the world【单元导航】中国式英语欧洲人做过精细的统计,自1994年以来加入国际英语行列的词汇中,中式英语贡献了5%到20%,超过任何其他来源。
除“孔夫子(Confucious)”、“中国功夫(kung fu)”、“麻将(mahjong)”或者“豆腐(tofu)”之类绝无仅有的称谓,再挑拣几个真正有中国气质、代表华夏气派、并影响全球当代生活的“鸡蛋词”。
(一)丝绸——silk中国是养蚕大国,丝绸的故乡。
“silk”的发音,显然是汉语的音译,这个词代表了中国高超的工艺技术和贸易强势。
即便现在,丝绸仍在现代生活中充当雍容华丽、典雅高贵的象征。
(二)茶——tea这个词,又是英国人从拗口的闽南话里偷走的。
茶,和丝绸、瓷器比肩,堪称古代中国对外贸易的拳头产品。
目前,品茶代表了一种生活方式和文化品位。
18世纪的柴斯特顿勋爵在《训子家书》里写道:“尽管茶来自东方,它毕竟是绅士气味的;而可可则是个痞子、懦夫,一头粗野的猛兽。
”(三)世外桃源——Shangrila (Xanadu)这是两个近义词,都有“世外桃源”的意思。
“Shangrila”出自西藏的传说之地——香格里拉,“Xanadu”则是蒙古的元上都。
如果要表达“世外桃源”,通常采用“Xanadu”这个词。
(四)风水——Feng Shui风水,还是音译。
它凝聚了古代中国在活人住宅和死人墓地方面的集体智慧。
近年来,风水在美国红极一时,从中国人唇齿之间发出的音节,已经成为当代人急需探究的学问。
(五)走狗——running dogs中国式英语“running dogs”贴切地表达了一种见利忘义、供人驱使的“下三烂”。
最先运用这个词的是中国人,还是英国人,已无从考证;重要的是,英语世界接纳了“走狗”,并以汉语的思维抚育这个“外来词”。
接纳词汇的同时,无形中也接受了中国人的价值观。
(六)大款、巨亨——tycoon这种称呼是近些年才流行街巷的,指有钱、有势的商人或者企业家,中国传统的叫法是“大掌柜”。

教学过程Step 1 Warming-up and lead-in (8 mins)(1) 小测试: 对比阅读Robert Burns的诗A Red Red Rose和一首现代诗(4 mins)T: Hello, class. You have all been learning English for at least 3 years. But how good is your English? How much do you know about English? Today, let’s look here and have a test to see how good your English is. Here is a poem by Robert Burns, who was an English poet, or exactly, a Scottish poet. This poem, A Red Red Rose, is one of the most famous in the world. Read it and listen. Let’s see if you have any difficulty in understanding it.A Red Red RoseRobert BurnsO, my Luve's like a red, red roseThat's newly sprung in June;O, my Luve's like the melodie,That's sweetly play'd in tune.As fair art thou, my bonnie lass,So deep in luve am I;And I will luve thee still, my dear,Till a' the seas gang dry.Till a' the seas gang dry, my dear,And the rocks melt wi' the sun;I will luve thee still, my dear,While the sands o' life shall run.And fare thee well, my only Luve!And fare thee well, a while!And I will come again, my Luve,Tho' it were ten thousand mile!T: Did you find it easy or difficult? What about this one? This poem was written by a modern writer.I Am Not YoursI am not yours, not lost in you,Not lost, although I long to beLost as a candle lit at noon,Lost as a snowflake in the sea.You love me, and I find you stillA spirit beautiful and bright,Yet I am I, who long to beLost as a light is lost in light.Oh plunge me deep in love—put outMy senses, leave me deaf and blind,Swept by the tempest of your love,A taper in a rushing wind.T: Why is the first poem difficult to understand while the second one not? (Mainly because of some of the words used in the first poem, which are not often used now. Robert Burns lived in the 18th century while the writer of the second poem is a modern poet.) So we can see people in the past used different words from what is used today.(2) 听一段一位学生和来自澳大利亚的外教的对话(4 mins)T: Now, when one day Qiu Zhensong met our foreign teacher Zak, who is from Australia, what happened? Let’s welcome Zak and Qiu Zhensong.(After the dialogue, the foreign teacher explained.) Did you understand our dialogue? (Ss: No.) What’s the difficulty? (Different words were used in Australia which you do not know in American or British English.) T: So from the two poems and the dialogue we can see people from different countries speak different English and people in different times also use different English. How did the difference come about?[意图说明] 引入话题:不同时代、不同国家所使用的英语有所不同。

more people use English as their first or 2nd language.3.The US has the largest number of English speakers.4.Native English speakers can understand everything because they speak the same kind ofEnglish.)S g:The first one is true.S h:The second one is true.S i:The third one is false.China has the largest number of English speakers.S j:The fourth one is false.Native English speakers may not be able to understand everything because they do not speak the same kind of English.T:You did a very good job.Now please read para.3 after the tape.And then fill in the formThe Road To Modern EnglishThe cause:Cultures communicate with one anotherTime Things that happenedBetween AD 450and 1150Based on German1150 to 1500 Less like German;more like French→why?→because Frenchmen ruled England thenIn the 1600’s Shakespeare broadened the vocabulary.A big change in English,giving its own identity→why?→caused by “American Dictionary of the English language”written by Noah WebsterLater British people brought English to AustraliaT:We know culture communication brings about changes in English.Can you think of any effect that Chinese has on English?S k:In English there are some Chinese words such as gongfu,long time no see,...T:Great!With more closely communication of culture,English is changing more frequently.T:As we all know,English is spoken as the native language mostly in western countries.Then what about English in some other parts of the world?After reading the last paragraph,would you please say something about the present situation of English in your own words?S l:It is also spoken as a foreign or 2nd language in many other countries.For example,in India,it is used for government and education.In some African and Asian countries,it is also spoken,such as in South Africa,Singapore and Malaysia.While in China,the number of English speakers is increasing fast.T:Quite good.Step 7 DiscussionT:So far,we’ve known that English is becoming more and more important in China.It has been an important subject for Chinese students.But someone say that Chinese is a much more elegant language.So it is more important for us to master it and it is not so necessary for us to master a foreign language.Do you agree with this opinion and why?Suggested answer:I don’t agree with it.With the cultural communication becoming more and more frequent,the chance to contact foreigners,exported goods,international conferences,and so on,is more and more.As the most widely used language,English is regarded as the language used in most international situations.Thus,if we want to keep up with the times,we’d better master English and use it as a tool.Step 8 Summary and homeworkT:Today we’ve learned an article on “the road to modern English”.After class,you shouldread it again and again to get the idea of the text further.Do the exercises of comprehending and try to tell your partner something about English in our own words.That’s all for today.Class is over.●板书设计Unit

some words from other languages in English.Differences Pronunciation Spelling MeaningUsage...Words from other languages Chinese Japanese French Spanish German...●备课资料Soon There Will Be No Such Thing As “Wrong”English In this article:Senior Indian journalist Gautaman Bhaskaran says that English is so flexible that one day there will be too many variations around the world.English is a victim of its own success.The other day The Times in London displayed a cartoon showing an excited schoolboy flaunting his test scores:“I done good in English.”Days later,editors of the Oxford Dictionary of English rued the spread of what they termed “greengrocer’s English”.Grammar and syntax,they regretted,were going out of fashion.Others in England—in the Oxf ord University Press,the BBC and so on—said the incorrect use of cliches were marring the smooth flow of a great language whose ability to imbibe and absorb has been one important reason for its success.This success also stems from the language’s unique position of being the only one spoken in most parts of the world.Really,English has no boundaries.Even in countries such as Japan and China,which were not colonized by Britain,English is making a determined “conquest”.Unfortunately,such a conquest is not always welcome because a language sometimes doubles as a political weapon.At some point it ceases to be just a means of communication and English is a classic example of this.It has always led a troubled life.It has been disliked,even hated,largely because the people who originally spoke English conquered,colonized and terrorized half the world,or just about.The animosity to the language continues,at least in some places.The bitterness that the French,for instance,have for English is a g ood example of a language being giving a quasi-political role in society.Fortunately,this aversion does not run as it did some years ago,and there is a growing realization that English is the lingua franca.China and Japan,among a host of other nations,have been making serious efforts to promote the language.Some months ago there was a hue and cry in Singapore over the spread of “terrible English”which the authorities called “Singlish”.“Down with it!”they said,and urged Singaporeans to learn correct English,the phenomenal flexibility of which has often made things difficult for those who have to use it every day.Today even university graduates find it hard to pen a couple of correct sentences in it.More horrifying is that many teachers and university vice-chancellors speak and write poor and ungrammatical English.Often,they are found to be out of touch with what is called “usage”and,as we all know,this is one of the pillars the language rests on.Yet,despite the mess that English is in India,the nation has—more than two centuries after Samuel Johnson wrote his English dictionary—become the hottest destination for top lexicographers.The new 10th revised edition of the Oxford Concise English Dictionary includes hundreds of Indian words.Leading the list of 600 Indian English entries are “Hindutva”(Hindu identity),“dada”(older brother),“panchayat”(local administration),“chai”(tea),“pani”(water),“puri”(a dish made of wheat)and “dosa”(rice pancake).In fact,Indian words from 20 per cent of entries and rank as the third-largest component after American and Australian English segments.Other former British colonies such as New Zealand,South Africa and the Caribbean islands follow the Indian English collection of words.English,despite its hiccups,is endearing to the common Indian man or woman.About 150 years after Lord Macaulay introduced the language in India to create “babus”(clerks)for the British bureaucracy,70 million Indians speak English,a number that is higher than that in Britain.However,there is a sneaking fear among Puritans that with this kind of sp read,English may stop being English.While the French have fanatically preserved the purity of their language,the English have liberally allowed other influences to affect their lingo.So,what is seen as its strength —the fact that people all over the world understand it—can be an undermining obstacle.There might be a serious problem if every state or continent were to have its own version of English.As one writer said:“There is a risk in relentless atomization.”With too many variations of the language,a time may come when one group of English-speaking people may not be able to understand another.This is happening.Hear the way Singaporeans speak English.Listen to the Australians pronouncing “e”;it sounds like “a”.A few of the films made lately by British directors Ken Loach and Mike Leigh had to have subtitles in English.Accents in the north of Britain can be hard for people in the south to understand,let alone those outside the island.The point is,no language must be allowed such flexibility—anything goes in the name of functional communication—that people begin to take liberties with it.Ultimately,there may be no such thing as wrong English.The schoolboy in the Times cartoon was doing just that.He knew nobody would scold him for getting his English wrong.不久以后就没有“错误的”英语这一说了英语成了自身成功的牺牲品,前几天,伦敦的《泰晤士报》刊登了一幅漫画,上面画了一个兴高采烈的男学生炫耀他的考试成绩:“I done good in English”(我的英语成绩不错)。

高中人教版必修一 Unit 2 English Around the World 第一部分 教案
A Teaching Design for Unit2——English Around the WorldDo warming up by answering a questionnaire.1) Tell the students they are going to answer a questionnaire about why they arelearning English.2) Ask the students to think as many reasons as they can.3) Write the words: Reasons for learning a foreign language on the center of theboard.4) Divide the class into pairs.5) Give out each student one questionnaire paper.6) Explain the task. The students must question eachother about their languagelearning needs (or motivations). Tell them that you are going to take in the questionnaires at the end, and that you‟d like them to make clear notes. It works better if the two partners swap tasks (questions and answers) after each section of the questionnaire. If they wait till the end to swap, one student may use up all the time available.7) When the task is finished, ask a couple of students to summarize their partners‟answers. (This may develop into a class discussion about language needs).8) The students write five sentences on their feeling about learning English.9) Collect the questionnaires and choose two to share with students.Design aims: arouse students‟ interest and enthusiasm in class .Step 2: Lead-in (6 min)1) Guess picturesT:Present some national flags of English speaking countries on the ppt.S: name the English-speaking countries according to the national flags2)Pair work: Ask the students to listen to a piece of BBC news and a piece of VOAnews.

Make sure thateveryone is familiar with those requirements.2)Ask students to form into pairs and to complete the word puzzle. They havethree minutes to work out it.Design aims:let students review new word they have learned in this unit. Arouse their attention into the class again.

Let them learn some new sentence structure.Step 6:Using Structures (10 min)A.Explain what direct speech and indirect speech is.We may report the words of aspeaker in two ways.1)Direct SpeechWe may quote the actual words of the speaker. This method is called Direct Speech.2)Indirect SpeechWe may report what he said without quoting his exact words. This method is called Indirect Speech or Reported Speech.Example:• Direct: Clinton said, “I am very busy now.”• Indirect: Clinton sai d that he was very busy then.B.How to change Direct to Indirect Speech?i. We have used the conjunction …that‟ before the Indirect Statement.ii. The pronoun “I” is changed to “HE”. (The Pronoun is changed in Person)iii. The verb “am” is changed to “was”.iv. The adver b “now” is changed to “then”.C.Rules for changing Direct into Indirect Speech:A. When the reporting or principal verb is in the Past Tense, all the PresentTenses in the Direct Speech are changed into Past Tense.a. A simple present tense becomes simple past tense.Example:• Direct: He said, “I am unwell.”• Indirect: He said that he was unwell.b. A present continuous tense becomes a past continuous.Example:• Direct: He said, “my mother is writing letter.”• Indirect: He said that his mother was writing letter.c. A present perfect becomes a past perfect:Are you clear about the conversion of Direct to Indirect Speech?Example:• Direct: He said, “I have passed the examination.”• Indirect: he said that he had passed the examination.d. As a rule the simple past tense in the Direct Speech becomes the past perfecttense in Indirect Speech.Example:• Direct: He said, “His horse died in the night.”• Indirect: he said that his horse had died in the night.B. The tenses will not change if the statement is still relevant or if it is a universaltruth. We can often choose whether to keep The original tenses or change them.Examples:• Direct: “I know her address”, said John.• Indirect: John said that he knows/knew her address.In this Indirect Speech, both the past tense and the present tense make thesentence a correct one.• Direct: The teacher said, “The earth goes round the sun.”• Indirect: The teacher said that the earth goes/went round the sun.The past tense is often used when it is uncertain if the statement is true or when we are reporting objectively.C. If the reporting verb is in present tense, the tenses of the Direct Speech do not change. For example, we may rewrite the above examples, putting the reporting verb in the present tense.Examples:• Direct: He says, “I am unwell.”• Indirect: He says that he is unwell.D. The pronouns of the Direct Speech are changed where necessary, so that their relations with the reporter and his hearer, Rather than with the original speaker are indicated.Examples:• Direct: He said to me, “I do not believe you.”• Indirect: He said that he did not believe me.E. Words expressing nearness in time or places are generally changed into words expressing distance.Examples:• Direct: He said, “I am glad to be here this evening.”• Indirect: he said that he was glad to be there that evening.D.Then do the exercise in the book.E.Summaries whole lesson.
