新视野大学英语第三版读写教程第二册Unit1教案
UnitlLanguage in missionUnderstanding and LearningOverviewThis unit focuses on learning English with text Atalking about how grammar and vocabulary canbe taught efficiently and text B how the languagecan be learned successfully. In other words, one is about how to teach and the other how to leam.The writing style between the two texts is alsosomewhat different, the first one is more relaxedand humorous, a typical style in English discourse.The tone of the second text howeveris more formal and serious. When teachers familiarize students with the texts, they need to point out their respective writing styles and also think about how to involve students in class activities from twodifferent angles: teaching vs. learning. Meanwhile students should be encouraged to express their opinions about the current way of teaching in anEnglish class, thereby expressing their thoughts freely. Activities can range from class discussion to peer interview and panel debate such as whether grammar is of crucial importance in leamingEnglish and how one can excel when learning thatlanguage. Students need to share their leamingexperience and find out more effective ways to learn English grammar and vocabulary. Section AAn impressive English lessonBackground information1.Learning English grammarThe goal of developing learners’ functional competence in a second language is not a new idea. Originally, the term Grammar referred to the art of writing. As used today by many teachers and learners, grammar is loosely understood to be a set of rules that govern a language. Communicative language teaching has placed a renewed emphasis on the role of grammar, especially in the early stages of instruction. Viewing grammar with all of its components helps language teachers andleamers understand the complexity of what itmeans to know the grammar of a language. Clearly,the goal of language learning in a communicative classroom is for learners to acquire the grammar of the second language in its broadest sense toenable them to understand and make meaningthat is, to become proficient users of the language.Research and experience have shown that explicitteaching of grammatical rules does not producesuch competence. How should grammar be taughteffectively? It still has remained a question to all thelanguage teachers. Detailed study of the text1. If I am the only parent who still corrects his child’s English, then perhaps my son is right. To him,I am a tedious oddity: a father he is obliged to listen to and a man absorbed in the rules of grammar, which my son seems allergic to. (Para. 1)Meaning: My son is probably right if there is no other parent like me who still corrects his child’s mistake in English. To my son, I am a boring and strange father, who he has to listen to ; I am also the one who pa ys lots of attention to grammar rules, which he doesn’t seem to like.★tedious: a. boring and continuing for too long )〔长乏味的Telling thestory has become tedious, as I have done it so many times.讲述这个故事已变得单调乏味,因为我己经讲了这么多次了。

The reason this particular protest isstill remembered and famous is because of the unfortunate result of the demonstrations.On April 30, 1970, US President Richard Nixon announced an escalation of the war in Vietnam with a military invasion of Cambodia, which neighbors Vietnam. At that time, the war was extremely unpopular with the public and many people were frustrated and angered by this new development—especially students. Many people had been encouraged by Nixon's promise two years earlier to end the war, but, in 1970, there was still no end in sight.On May 1, students at Kent State University in Kent, Ohio protested against the American invasion of Cambodia and were calling for an end to the war. The campus protest was peaceful, but emotions grew throughout the day, and riots soon erupted in the town's streets that night. In response, the governor sent National Guard troops to the Kent State University campus to stop the riots and protests.Small protests continued over the next two days, and then, on the morning of May 4, approximately 2,000 students gathered in the center of campus to protest both the war and the presence of soldiers at their school. The soldiers ordered the students to disperse and return to their dorms. When they refused, the soldiers began firing tear gas into the crowd.During the morning, the situation escalated, along with tensions, emotions, and anger. Shortly after noon, the National Guard soldiers opened fire on the students. The cause of this action remains unclear to this day. However, at the end of the day, four students were killed and nine others were wounded. Some of those students were not even involved in the protest. They were just walking by or watching the protest from a distance.41. What were the students at Kent State University protesting?A. The American invasion of Vietnam.B. The American invasion of Cambodia.C. The election of President Richard Nixon.D. The election of the Ohio governor.42. National Guard troops were sent to the Kent State campus because _______.A.

大学英语教材第一册课文原文Unit 1 TravelText ATravelingTraveling by air is becoming more and more popular. More and more people are using the air services. But why do they prefer traveling by air to traveling by train or by car?Speed is one of the important things. You can travel hundreds of miles in a few hours by plane. You can get to most places in the world in twenty-four hours or less. In the past, a journey of that distance often took weeks. Some journeys still take weeks or even months now if you do not go by air.But the most important reason for traveling by air is comfort. On a modern plane, you can sit in a comfortable seat with plenty of room. You can get meals and drinks during the flight. And you can walk around the plane if you want to. You do not have to sit in one place all the time. When the weather is good, you can enjoy the beautiful view from the windows. When the weather is bad, you can read, watch TV or just sleep.But not all air travel is comfortable. Economy class travel can be uncomfortable. You usually have very little room for your legs and there is very little personal service.Still, most people think that it is better to travel by plane than by train or by car. Even though air travel is sometimes uncomfortable, it is both faster and more convenient than other types of travel.ExercisesA. Choose the correct answers:1. Which one is an important reason for traveling by air?A. Speed.B. Comfort.C. Low cost.D. Adventure.2. How long does it take to travel by plane to most places in the world?A. A few hours.B. Two days.C. Weeks.D. Twenty-four hours or less.B. Complete the following sentences according to the text:1. Air travel is becoming more and more popular. _______ ______________ _______ the air services.2. On a modern plane, you can sit in a _______ _______ with plenty of room.3. _______ _______ _______ in the past, a journey of hundreds of miles often took weeks.Text BFour Ways of TravelingMany people like to travel. There are different ways of traveling, and they all have their advantages and disadvantages. Here we look at four ways of traveling.Two of the most popular ways are traveling by car and traveling by train. Traveling by car has some advantages. It is cheap, and you can stop whenever and wherever you want. You can also carry a lot of luggage with you. But there are also disadvantages. Sometimes there are traffic jams and accidents, and you can spend a lot of time waiting. Traveling by train is comfortable and you can see the country. You can move around on the train and you can eat in the restaurant car. But trains are not as flexible as cars. They only go to certain places, and you have to catch the train at certain times.Another way of traveling is by boat. If you like ships and the sea, traveling by boat is an excellent way to relax and enjoy yourself. Boats are big and comfortable, and you can have a very good time on board. You can eat and drink in the restaurants and bars, and you can do a lot of shopping. But moving around on a boat can be tiring. You can only go where the boat goes, and you may have to share your cabin with other people.Finally, there is air travel. It is the fastest and most comfortable way of traveling long distances. You can get to most places in the world quickly and easily by plane. You can eat and sleep on the plane, and you can watch TV or listen to music. But air travel is expensive. And sometimes airports can be crowded and noisy.So if you like traveling, what is the best way? It depends on where you want to go, how much money you have, and how much time you have.。
