阅读下面有关作者三年级参加演出时的一次经历的节选,对比中外文化中对母爱理解的异同。
My Mother's GiftSuzanne ChazinI grew up in a small town where the elementary school was a tenminute walk from my house and in an age,not so long ago,when children could go home for lunch and find their mother waiting.At the time,I did not consider this a luxury,although today it certainly would be.I took it for granted①that mothers were the sandwichmakers,the fingerpainting appreciations and the homework monitors.I never questioned that this ambitious,intelligent woman,who had had a career before I was born and would eventually return to a career,would spend almost every lunch hour throughout my elementary school years just with me.I only knew that when the noon bell rang,I would race breathlessly② home.My mother would be standing at the top of the stairs,smiling down at me with a look that suggested I was the only important thing she had on her mind.For this,I am forever grateful.One lunch time when I was in the third grade will stay with me always.I had been picked to be the princess in the school play,and for weeks my mother had painstakingly ③ rehearsed(排练,排演)my lines with me.But no matter how easily I delivered④ them at home,as soon as I stepped on stage,every word disappeared from my head.Finally,my teacher took me aside.She explained that she had written a narrator's part to the play,and asked me to switch roles.Her words,kindly delivered,still stung,especially when I saw my part go to another girl.I didn't tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day.But she sensed my unease,and instead of suggesting we practice my lines,she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard.I watched my mother casually bend down by one of the clumps,“I think I'm going to dig up all these weeds,”she said,yanking(使劲拉)a blossom,up by its roots.“From now on,we'll have only roses in this garden.”“But I like dandelions,”I protested.“All flowers are beautiful—even dandelions.”My mother looked at me seriously.“Yes,every flower gives pleasure in its own way,doesn't it?”she asked thoughtfully.I nodded,please that I had won her over.“And that is true of people too,”she added.“Not everyone can be a princess,but there is no shame⑤ in that.”Relieved that she had guessed my pain,I started to cry as I told her what had happened.She listened and smiled reassuringly(使人安心地).“But you will be a beautiful narrator,”she said,reminding me of how much I loved to read stories aloud to her.“The narrator's part is every bit as important as the part of the princess.”Over the next few weeks,with her constant encouragement,I learned to take pride in the role.Lunch times were spent reading over my lines and talking about what I would wear.Backstage the night of the performance,I felt nervous.A few minutes before the play,my teacher came over to me.“Your mother asked me to give this to you,”she said,handing me a dandelion.Its edges were already beginning to curl and it flopped (垂下)lazily from its stem.But just looking at it,knowing my mother was out there and thinking of our lunchtime talk,made me proud.After the play,I took home the flower I had stuffed(塞) in the apron of my costume.My mother pressed it between two sheets of paper toweling in a dictionary,laughing as she did it that we were perhaps the only people who would press such a sorrylooking weed.I often look back on our lunchtimes together,bathed in the soft midday light.They were the commas in my childhood,the pauses that told me life is not savored(品味) in premeasured increments(增长),but in the sum of daily rituals(惯例) and small pleasures we casually share with loved ones.Over peanutbutter sandwiches and chocolatechip cookies,I learned that love.First and foremost,means being there for the little things.A few months ago,my mother came to visit.I took a day off work and treated her to lunch.The restaurant bustled(忙忙碌碌) noontime activity as businesspeople made deals and glanced at their watches.In the middle of all this sat my mother,now retired,and I.From her face I could see that she relished (喜爱)the pace of the work world.“Mom,you must have been terribly bored staying at home when I was a child,”I said.“Bored?Housework is bo ring.But you were never boring.”I didn't believe her so I pressed.“Surely children are not as stimulating asa career.”“A career is stimulating.”she said.“I'm glad I had one.But a career is like an open balloon.It remains inflated only as long as you keep pumping.A child is a seed.You water it.You care for it the best you can.And then it grows all by itself into a beautiful flower.”Just then,looking at her,I could picture⑥ us sitting at her kitchen table once again,and I understood why I kept that flaky(易破碎的) brown dandelion in our old family dictionary pressed between two crumpled(皱,扭曲) bits of paper towel.母亲的礼物苏珊妮·查馨我是在一个小镇上长大的,从镇上的小学校到我家只需要步行十分钟。

Unit 1 School life单元规划内容预览School life is the theme of this unit. The purposes of this unit are to learn about school life in the UK, to identify the differences between school life in the UK and in China, to enlarge the vocabulary about school facilities, and to recognize attributive clauses, including designing a poster for a new school club. In Welcome to the unit, the students will be presented with four different aspects of school life in the UK and are asked to compare the differences between high schools in the UK and in China. The Reading text deals with an article from a school magazine, which gives us specific information about what school life in the UK is really like. Word Power focuses on words and phrases related to school facilities, with re levant exercises to strengthen the students’ ability to use these phrases. In Grammar and Usage, the students will learn what an attributive clause is and what relative pronouns and relative adverbs function as in this clause. They will learn in what circumstances that, which, who, whom or whose are used. Following is the Task section dealing with reporting school activities, in which students will practice the language skills of listening, speaking, reading, and writing. They will learn how to talk about school activities and write a notice about one of them. In the Project section, students will be asked to read two texts about school clubs and design an attractive poster for a new school club. In the self-assessment section, the students are supposed to rank their confidence level on different skills with the help of the chart on page 20 first, and then they can make plans to improve some parts, with which they have some difficulty. If possible, the students can turn to the teacher or their classmates for help.This unit not only provides a chance for students to get an idea of school life in the UK and asks them to identify the differences between school life and in the UK and in China, but also intends to teach the students the two of the basic reading skills, skimming and scanning, which are important to improve the students’ reading ability. This unit will practice topic-related skills. Students are expected to participate fully, in order to develop both their language skills and overall abilities. Also this unit enables students to compare different information given to them and choose useful information needed, and lastly, to make correct decisions. They are expected to apply what they have learnt to practical use by designing a poster for a new school club. A series of activities are designed to develop the students’ listening, speaking, reading and writing abilities, together with the purpose of getting the students to learn to be cooperative and helpful when taking part in class-activities.三维目标1.

At the beginning of the term, the students in senior one may feel very curious about the fresh school environment. High school is a time that will be treasured and kept in our memories forever. Therefore, it is a good chance for the teacher to lead in this topic. First of all, teachers can let the students recall their junior life, and ask what high school life they think will be like. The teacher can encourage them to show their opinions about the differences between high school and junior school. Later, the teacher can take different measures to enable them to compare school life in the United Kingdom with school life in China. In this section, four pictures and texts representing school life in the UK are given. Each text gives a brief description of the subject. The teacher can divide the students into groups to discuss the four topics: school buildings; school facilities; class teaching and the number of students in each class; the relationship between teachers and students. There are also some questions presented to cause the students to consider further, such as,What kind of school activities do you enjoy?What is your dream school life like?What is your favorite subject?Among all the subjects we are learning now, which do you like least? Why?What do you think we can do with the subjects we don’t like?Students are to fully participate in the discussion and brainstorm by combining what they have already known about the high schools in the UK with the help of the information in the text. The related topics and activities are designed to grab and attract students’ attention by involving their full participation. Students are expected to be active in the discussion, practice their spoken English and express their opinions by comparing and discussing the differences between school life in the UK and in China. The purpose of this period is to give the students some impression of the school life in the UK and inform the Ss of the differences between schools in China and the UK as well as the differences between high school life and junior school life, and to enlarge the students’ knowledge and make them know the imp ortance of school life in one’s life.三维目标1. To introduce and develop the theme of school life, especially to get the students to know of differences between high school life and junior school life as well as to identify the differences between school life in different countries.2. To help the students enlarge their vocabulary, especially those related to the topic.3. To develop listening and speaking by talking about life in the new school.4. To enable the students to know how to compare.5. To learn to be cooperative and helpful when working together.重点难点1. To find out the differences of their life between senior high and junior high.2. To learn something about the high school life in the UK.3. To encourage the students to talk about their former school life and about their dream school life.4. To know how to get on well with high school life/study.5. To ensure every student to have a chance to express himself/herself.教学方法1. Discussion in pairs or in groups.2. Task-based in-class activities.3. Explanations of some language points.教具准备A tape recorder and the multimedia.课前准备1. The topics we are going to deal with in our next periods are not only very interesting and attractive, but also a bit challenging as well. Ask the students to prepare for a free-talk for about two or three minutes. They can introduce themselves to their classmates or say something about their junior middle school life, or even make a plan for their high school life. This will help all the students to take part in in-class activities and help them adapt to high school life quickly.2. Encourage the students to prepare for the following topics. It is best for all of us to make preparations first, either by searching for information on the Internet or looking through background information in some books and so on. They can also be divided into several groups to get some information about high school life in different countries as they like.3. Prepare the following questions in advance.Questions:1)Do you know of any differences between the lives of Chinese and British high school students?2)What differences exist between high school life and junior school life?3)What is your dream school life like?4)What should we prepare for the new high school life in order to succeed?5)What can you find in these four pictures?6)How do you find school life in Britain?7)What do you want to know by learning this unit?4. Ask the students to read the following passage to help them know something about high school.High SchoolHigh school sounds like a scary time for everybody. But when you really get to high school, it doesn’t seem that bad.What high school is likeHigh school is a lot like middle school. Of course you might get lost the first few days looking for your classes. But after a while, you learn that what seemed like a large school really isn’t.One thing that is really cool about high school is that there are more classes to choose from, Some are even unavailable in middle school like photography or psychology. If you happen to like art, there are many art classes. So there are many things that are new in high school, but often, it’s these new things that make high school so much better.What to look for in high schoolIn high school, some things are really similar to those of middle school, while new opportunities occur as well. There are more clubs, sports and other activities you can join in.The activities you join in can help you make new friends who have the same interests as you. These activities also give you a chance to learn something you might not have had the opportunity to learn before.What to expect in high schoolThe high school experience is different for everyone-depending on what classes you take or what clubs you decide to join in. But there is one thing that is certain. More than likely, you are going to have just as much fun in high school as you did in middle school. And if middle school wasn’t that great for you, high school is a chance to makeup for it.High school isn’t just fun, though. At the same time, you are growing up and have to be responsible. Teachers aren’t going to chase you down to do your homework or beg you to complete all your tests.Everything changes when you get older. The changes between high school and middle school aren’t that bad. So you shouldn’t worry about it.教学过程→Step 1 Greetings and self-introductionActivity 1 GreetingsTeachers can have a short talk to welcome them to the senior high English class. Teachers may start like the following: “It’s the beginning of a new term. You have just finished junior school study and are about to enter a new period in your studies. I am very happy to have all of you in my class and I hope we can be friends. ”This is the first semester of the high school and most students are not familiar with each other, so it is necessary for them to introduce themselves to know about each other. Students may feel nervous to speak English in public, especially to the strangers. In order to encourage the students to make a self-introduction, teachers had better introduce themselves, and ask them to take it easy. Let the students know it doesn’t matter even if they may make mistakes, because it is hard for people to avoid making mistakes when speaking. After one student finishes his or her free-talk, other students or teachers can ask him or her some questions. If students are nervous to introduce themselves, teachers can ask them some questions to help them to express herself or himself. Teachers may use such questions as the following:Q1: What’s your name please?Q2: Which school did you graduate from? /Which school are you from?Q3: Do you have any hobbies?Q4: How do you often spend your spare time?Q5: What subjects did you study when you were in your junior school?Q6: Which subject do you like best? Why?Q7: Who is your favorite teacher? Why do you like her or him?Q8: What kind of school life did you dislike in your junior school? Why?. . .Activity 2 TalkingThen the teacher can ask the students to talk about high school life in their mind. High school time is very important and it is often considered as golden time in our life. However, some of them may feel nervous and uncomfortable when they first come here. Teachers may ask the following questions:1. What difficulties have you had since you came to this high school?2. What do you think you can do to overcome these difficulties?3. If you have difficulty, who do you think you can turn to for help first? why?Activity 3 ListeningListen to dialogues and find out where the dialogues may take place and what has happened. Meanwhile, ask the students to pay attention to how to start a conversation and how to ask the way.Sample answers: This dialogue may take place on the street. A person lost his way.Activity 4 SpeakingTeachers may start this part like this: Just now, we listened and knew he lost his way. He asked the way for help. Such things also often happen to us. When you came to our campus on the first day, you might be lost. You didn’t know how to get to your destination. Then you had to ask the way. Please discuss the following questions:1. What is the best way to get someone’s attention when you need help to find the way?2. What should you do if you have difficulty in following the speaker?3. Which expressions can be used to ask the way?After their discussion, teachers should offer them chances to show their opinions. The answers are various, not fixed.Sample answers:1. The best way is to say ‘Excuse me’ first. This expression can be used regardless of sex and age. In this way you will never make a mistake about their titles.2. You can repeat the key words you think you heard like ‘three blocks’. In this way, the speaker will realize that he has been speaking too fast and will probably slow down for you.3.Role A Role BExcuse me. Would you like to tell me how to get to. . . ?Could you tell me the way to. . . ?How long will it take to get to. . . ?How far is it from. . . to. . . ?What’s the best way to get to. . . ?What is the school’s address?Could you tell me where there is. . . ?How many miles is it to the nearest. . . ?Does this bus go to. . . ?Please tell me which bus should I take for. . . ?Hello, I can’t find my way back to. . .

In order to help them make a successful dialogue, teachers first introduce some school facilities, such as, library, car park, classroom, lecture hall, art room, science laboratory, stores, offices, garden, swimming pool, dormitories, medical center, gym, canteen, classroom.In order to help the students practice their speaking ability about how to ask for help, teachers should prepare some situations to help the students to make a proper dialogue in advance.Suppose students may have met the following puzzling problems.1)On the first day, you suddenly felt sick and wanted to see a doctor. But you did not know how to get to the school medical center.2)If you were to buy food in the school canteen, you didn’t know where the school canteen was and you got lost.3)You found your golden watch lost, and you felt very worried, so you wanted to go to the school Lost and Found Office and look for a lost watch.4)Fix a date with your teacher for a face-to-face talk about one of your problems.Teachers should give the students some minutes to prepare for it. If they have some difficulty, teachers will help them smooth them away. After some minutes, encourage the students to act out their dialogues.→Step 2 PresentationActivity 1 BrainstormingAccording to the given passage titled “High School” and their opinions on high school, ask them to present any expression on it. Teachers may ask the following question: “When we are talking about our school life, what will we probably think of? ”.Try to encourage all of them to be active in this activity, and teachers had better write down some wonderful expressions on the blackboard. Or draw the picture as the following.It is also a good time for teachers to help the students to form the right views on school life.Activity 2 DiscussionAfter the students show their understanding about high school, teachers can ask them to tell the differences between school lives between junior schools and high schools.After the students show their opinions on the differences between school lives in junior schools and high schools. Teachers may start like this: As we all know, there are differences in school lives between junior schools and high schools. So there must be differences in different cultures. Some of us must be eager to know what the school life in other countries is like. For example, we have studied English for three or more years, what is the UK school life like? How different is it from that in China? You know, there are many famous schools and universities in the UK. Today, we will pick up this subject.1. What have you known about schools in the UK?2. If you were offered a chance to study in the UK, would you like to attend school there? Why or why not?Teachers should give the students enough time to consider and discuss these questions, and then encourage them to share their opinions with others.Activity 3 Talking about the picturesAfter the discussion, students have already known something about the differences in school life between junior schools and high schools. At that time, ask them to talk about the pictures on page 1. Teachers may ask in this way:Look at the pictures, what can you learn from them?Which picture leaves the deepest impression on you? Why do you appreciate it the most?Later, ask the students to express her/his opinion. The following is for reference.In picture 1, we can see very low-rise houses and huge campus. They are very different from those in China. In China, students usually have large buildings and campus to make sure students have enough space to study in and play in.In picture 2, we can see lockers for every student. In China, students don’t have lockers.In picture 3, we can see a larger classroom with fewer students in it. The students sit in two lines face to face. There is a narrow passage between the two lines. The students are putting up their hands eagerly. Maybe they are answering the teacher’s questions. This is quite different from that of China. Students always have a full classroom with students sitting in several lines facing a blackboard. And in most cases, students are not so eager to answer the teachers’ questions.In picture 4, two students are discussing something with their teacher. They look quite at ease with their teacher as if they were staying with their friends. In China, it is quite different. Children or students often feel embarrassed when they are with their teachers.Activity 4 Comparison—Group workStudents may have gained more knowledge about school life in the UK by talking about the pictures, so they can make a comparison about school life in the UK and China. Teachers may start this part like this:We have studied the four pictures about schools in the UK. Now, discuss with your group members about the following question: What’s the difference in schools between China and the UK? Then draw some conclusions to complete the following form.Aspects Schools in the UK Schools in Chinacampus and buildingsfacilitiessize of every classrelationship between teachers and studentssome other aspects you knowAfter discussion, let the students exchange their opinions with other groups. Teachers can offer some answers to students for referring.Aspects Schools in the UK Schools in Chinacampus and buildings S tudents can see huge campus and low-rise buildings.It is the biggest difference from schools in China.Schools in China usually have a large enough campus to make sure students have enough space to study and play in.But most school buildings are taller, at least three storeys.facilitiesThere are rows of lockers by the classrooms for students to put their stationary, books, exercise books and other belongings.Students bring what they need for lessons to school and then take it all back home after school. Most schools in China do not have the equipment in the classroom.size of every classThere are fewer students in a class, no more than 30 per class. There are usually more students in high school, perhaps 40 to 50 per class. Recently some school are beginning to limit the number of students in each class.relationship between teachers and studentsStudents have a close relationship with their teachers. They feel at ease and comfortable with them.It is similar in China. Nowadays, lots of teachers and students have established a good relationship with each other. They respect each other and work to gain a better understanding of each other.some other aspects you knowStudents in the UK can choose whatever subjects they like or drop ones they are not interested in; they are graded A, B, C, D for every subject they choose rather than 100 points. In China, students have to learn the subjects required for all the high school students. They are not free to drop subjects even though they hate learning at all. They are scored according to the fixed points, such as 100, 120 and 150.→Step 3 DiscussionFirst, organize the students into pairs or small groups. Get the students to discuss the following questions:1. What is your dream school life like?2. What kind of school activities do you enjoy?3. What do you think of your life here in the new school?During the time of discussion, teachers had better take part in the students’ discussion and offer them some language help if necessary. Then, get small groups to report their conclusions to the whole class.→Step 4 Activity (show)Ask the students to describe a good teacher in their mind, and make a vivid description about a good student in their view, together with the ideal relationship between teachers and students. Teachers can ask some questions, for example:1. What kind of teachers do you like best in your mind? What characters does a good teacher should have in your opinion?2. In your opinion, what kind of students can be regarded as good students?3. What relationship between teachers and students should we have?In order to encourage the students to consider these questions deeply, teachers are advised to give students enough time to discuss with their group members fully. During practicing it, teachers are also advised to organize a competition to arouse students’ interest. If possible, students can draw pictures to express their thoughts.Sample answers:To question 1:S: I hope my teachers can have a strong sense of humor.S: If teachers can treat every student equally, I think we will all love them.S: We hope we can learn a lot of knowledge from teachers, so I think teachers who are learned must be very popular among us.To question 2:S: But I think a good student must be clever, open-minded and are ready to help others.S: First of all, a good student must be competitive and civilized.S: He or she should have good manners.To question 3:S: I think it is necessary to understand each other between teachers and students.S: Cooperation can help to build a good relationship between teachers and students.S: Teachers should be respected, while students are also respected. Respect is an important element for good relationship between teachers and students._____________After discussing these questions, teachers are to continue to let the students consider the following question:Many people think high school life is such an important period in our life. Do you know why?Encourage the students to show their different opinions. Later, teachers can draw a conclusion, that is, high school life is a bridge to success. And then, students are grouped to discuss this question:What can help us to succeed in our high school life?Suggested answers:S: Determination can help us succeed.S: Confidence leads to success.S: We should work hard, which leads to success.S: I think team work can help us succeed.S: Perseverance is important for success.S: Competence plays an important part in success.S: Wisdom and intelligence lead to success.Teachers can also draw a picture to show the keys to success according to what students say.→Step 5 Language pointsIt’s time to deal with language points in this part. Teachers can ask the students to deal with these language points by looking them up in the dictionary or explain to them in an interesting way.1. look at the pictures below. (作后置定语)看下面的图片。

Somewhere in the world, right now, students are hard at work in school and some are enjoying holidays. With over 190 nations across the globe's 24 time zones(时区), there are different types of school year. Here's a brief introduction to the typical school year in the following three countries.AustraliaStudents in Australia attend school for 200 days a year. Their school year lasts from late January to late November. Since Australia is in the Southern Hemisphere(半球), it experiences summer while it's winter in China. Summer vacation for Australian students is from December to late January. The school year in Australia is divided into four terms, with each term lasting 9 to 11 weeks. Students then have two weeks of vacation between each term. The typical school day is from 9 a.m. to 3:30 p.m., and lunch is eaten at school. Students are required to attend school for at least nine years.FranceThe school day in France typically runs from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m., with a half day on Saturday. Lunch is a two-hour break for public school students. Students usually attend school from the age of 6 to 18. The school year lasts from August to June, and is divided into four seven-week terms. Students in the primary grades learn basic skills in reading, writing, and math, as well as participate(参与) in exercises to develop observation,imagination, and physical abilities. Older students study French, math, physical and natural sciences, foreign language, history, etc.JapanMost Japanese schools run on a trimester(三学期制) schedule. The school year begins in April and ends in the following March, with summer, winter and spring holidays to separate the three terms. Uniforms are required and there are many rules for hairstyles, shoes, socks, skirt length, etc. Students in Japan study academic subjects, such as Japanese language, math, reading, social studies, and they also receive moral(道德的) education.
