首先，围绕The United Kingdom 这一话题，通过问题，小测试及头脑风暴的形式展开读前的热身活动，并用媒体图片展示，以激活学生对于这一话题的背景知识和兴趣，为“读”做好铺垫；然后，用英国的全称导入本节课的话题并辅之以英国地图，让学生在读前对英国的现有组成部分有所了解并通过课文标题和文中图片对课文内容进行预测；再然后，通过设计活动展开阅读教学活动，让学生通过略读、寻读、细读、研读四个环节，完成概括大意，填补文章，问题等阅读任务，了解文章的主旨和细节以及篇章结构等信息。
使学生理解课文，了解英国文化，并培养学生的如skimming, scanning 等阅读技能，形成良好的阅读策略；最后，在post-reading这一环节，设计四个活动（Summary, Role Play和Writing）旨在导用，以用固读，让学生结合所学的课文，联系实际生活进行语言实践活动，并通过课外写作延伸阅读，提升学生的综合运用语言能力。
