Book2 Unit2说课稿师范英语二班闫丽莹201334010225Good morning everyone. It’s my honor to share my lesson with you. My teaching material is from New Senior English for Chinese Student Book2 Unit2, the title is “ An Interview”, the reading part.part1: Teaching Material1.The analysis of teaching material and students.This reading is an interview between Li Yan,a volunteer from 2008 Olympic games and Pausanias, a Greek writer about 2000 years ago, so it may introduce the differences between ancient and modern Olympic games, in this reading, students can learn more Olympic games and reading skills, especially the skimming reading and careful reading. Because our students are all senior one, the words they learned are not enough and ability of spoken English is a little poor, so lead students to be interested in English learning is seems more important. Because this topic is related to our life, 2016 Olympic game will host in Rio soon, so I think it is helpful to raise their learning interests and increase the quantity of reading. Recently the Ministry of Education promulgates the 20 books of high school students, half of them are foreign books. So we can see, it is more and more important to learn English and do English reading.2. Teaching Aims.The teaching aims of this period include 5 aspects: knowledge, skill, cultural, emotional attitude and learning strategy.The first one: about knowledge students are able to know, understand and use new words and phrases, for example: Greek, volunteer, take part in, and practice new sentence pattern: What would like to know? I’d like to know…The second one: about skill, students will read this article twice and think, learn together in order to strengthen language awareness, accumulate language experience, improve reading skill (skimming and careful reading) even to conclude and summarize.T he third one: about culture, students can master the origin and development of the Olympics.The fourth one: emotional attitude, students are able to know more about Olympic, experience Olympic spirit: Never abandon and never give up. Lead students to concerned about and take part in it.The fifth one:learning strategies, students are able to develop self-learning in reading part to gain and deal with language information and form students’ questing habit to improve their ability of finding, analyzing and solving problems.3. Important Points.Help students to learn vocabulary, phrase and important sentence structure well, help students get the reading skills and know how to use it and know how to understand article detail.4. Difficult Points.Students have to know something about Olympic and competitive sports before the class. Students will practice the dialogue with partner, talk about Olympic use the knowledge we learned in this class.5. Teaching Methods.There are two kinds of teaching methods: Task-based language teaching method and heuristic teaching method. I will introduce them in details in next part.Part 2 Teaching Methods.About teaching methods:In this period, I am going to use two kinds of teaching methods. One is task-based language teaching method: firstly, students will be asked to read two questions before we start the first reading then start reading and find the answers. This teaching method helps students to find out the answer quickly and effectively. Another one is heuristic teaching method, in careful reading part, according to the differences between modern and ancient Olympic Games, lead students to find out the similarities. In homework part, teacher will ask students to take a role-playing task: if you are a volunteer in 2016 Rio Olympic Games, what would you want to prepare for it? This teaching method helps students to know how to infer other things from one fact. It’s a really good learning method, students will find more knowledge and interests by themself. Part 3.learning methodAbout learning method:There are two kinds of learning methods: autonomic learning method and cooperative learning method. In the first reading and practice part (find out the reasons why or why not we host the Olympic games)students asked to finished the task by themselves so they have to learn, think, analyze and sum up problems. Another is cooperative learning method, for example, in second reading part: students are asked to learn together to find out the differences between ancient and modern Olympic games. In practice part, students will have dialogue with partners to talk about Olympic Games. It is helpful for students to form the spirit of cooperation and team work. Teacher will listen to students carefully when they discuss in group and instruct them when they have some problems.Part 4 Teaching procedureStep1.Revision (1 minute)In this step, I will extend to students and introduce myself, students will also extend their greeting to me. This part is to remind everyone it is time for class.Step2.Lead-in (5minutes)At first, i will show you a song: 《北京欢迎你》together. Lead students to think about 2008 Beijing Olympic Games. Then students will tell us more about Olympic Games that they know about modern Olympic Games. For example, five rings flag. I will show five colors means with different colors, and how many gold medal we got since 1896 Greece Olympic Games to now, let students know how we get the NO1, then I will show some Olympic sports events icons, students will guess what’s meanings. After this part, students can guess the topic of the interview, and this lead-in will raise the interests of this reading.Step3. While-reading (18minutes)Now we have knew something about modern Olympic games then I will ask students to open the book turn to page to six, then I will writhe the title in the blackboard, before read passage, I will ask two questions about main idea. This action let students to read with questions, it is more effective to get the answers. It is also a good chance to practice skimming reading.After answer my questions we will turn into second reading, this time students will read carefully, after reading, and there a table about the differences between modern and ancient Olympic Games, it include host place, time, events prize and athlete. Students will discuss with partners and complete the blanks. After finish these, students can know details of this reading, it is also a good chance to practice careful-reading.Step4. Post reading/Practice (18 minutes)Now we turn into practice part. After learned the information from the passage, students should be checked whether they can use these knowledge freely.Firstly, students will be asked to finish this task like this: reasons to host the Olympic Games, and in this task students have to cooperate in group. But when students think about reasons not to host they have to think by themselves. This part is to practice their autonomic learning method and cooperative learning method.After that, students will have an interview between their partners and talk about Olympic games with the knowledge we learn in this reading. And two of students will Show us their dialogue. This part is most difficult for them to finish. But it can practice students’ communicative skill and s poken English.At last I will show some true or false questions to check out if there is some knowledge lost.Step5.

Unit 2 The Adventures of Tom Sawyer选读作品导读《汤姆·索亚历险记》是美国著名小说家马克·吐温的代表作,发表于1876年。

小说主人公汤姆·索亚天真活泼,富于幻想和冒险,不堪忍受束缚个性,枯燥乏味的生活,幻想干一番英雄事业。

小说通过主人公的冒险经历,对美国虚伪庸俗的社会习俗、伪善的宗教仪式和刻板陈腐的学校教育进行了讽刺和批判,以欢快的笔调描写了少年儿童自由活泼的心灵。

《汤姆·索亚历险记》以其浓厚的深具地方特色的幽默和对人物敏锐观察,一跃成为最伟大的儿童文学作品,也是一首美国“黄金时代”的田园牧歌。

《汤姆·索亚历险记》的姐妹篇是《哈克贝利·费恩历险记》。

《汤姆·索亚历险记》是美国十九世纪文学大师马克·吐温的代表作,是世界文学宝库的一部杰出经典名著。

《汤姆·索亚历险记》描写了十九世纪密西西河畔一个小镇人民的生活,可以说是当时美国社会生活的一个缩影。

从小说中我们可以了解到穷人和富人,教堂和学校,宗教与犯罪等当时美国生活的各个方面。

作者马克·吐温以满腔热情和真挚的爱为读者塑造了小主人公汤姆·索亚和他的一群小伙伴。

汤姆·索亚是个成长中的孩子,他调皮,喜欢恶作剧,却又善良可爱乐于助人。

他讨厌教堂里老师干巴巴的说教,他不喜欢整天在学校里干燥无味的生活,他向往成为绿林好汉,他希望加入海盗,过新鲜刺激的生活。

他总在危险时刻,挺身而出,做出那些懦弱的“好孩子”,体面的“优秀生”无法做出的正义行为,展示出自己的魅力。

名著节选Tom Sawyer tried to cut the cupboard with the knife. Then, it was the time for him to dress up. First, he must wash his faces and hands in a tin basin of water. But Tom Sawyer didn’t want to take the trouble to1 wash them. So he just poured out2 the water onto the ground. Then, Mary uncovered his secret3 and he had to use soap to wash his faces again. This time, his faces were not completely cleaned yet. The clean part was just like a mask4 on his face. Mary brushed his hair neatly and Tom Sawyer put on unhappily the suit of his clothes. With the efforts of his own cousin Mary, Tom had become a different person. Finally, he got into his shoes.Then, they went to the Sunday school. Tom Sawyer hated the school very much. The school hours were from nine to half past ten and then church service. When the children came to thegate of the school, Tom Sawyer walked slower and asked another boy, “Bill, have you got a yellow ticket?” After they bargained5 for a while, they reached a deal6. Tom gave him a fishing hook and he got the yellow ticket from Bill. In the same way, he exchanged for some red tickets and some blue tickets.In this school, the teacher had set a rule7 to encourage the children to recite the Bible: if hecould recite two verses8, the teacher would give him one blue ticket;ten blue tickets were equal to one red ticket; ten red tickets could beexchanged for a yellow ticket; if anybody could get ten yellow tickets,the teacher would give him or her a new Bible. Getting the thick bookwas the greatest honor for the children. So many children were busyreciting every day. They just wanted to get a Bible. In Tom Sawyer’s memory, it was impossible to get a Bible. So he thought of an easy way. He exchanged his small things for cards in other children’s hands. In this way, he got many cards.At the beginning of the class, the thirty-five-year-old teacher made a habitual9 speech. Tom Sawyer was playing with the boys around him. He pulled a boy’s hair and pinned another, but when they turned around, Tom just read the book carefully, but the children began to talk noisily in the latter one third of the talk. Some children even began to fight.Suddenly, the room turned silent because some visitors came into the room. Three adults and one young girl entered. To Tom Sawyer’s surprise, the little girlwas just the “angle”. Tom Sawyer thought of his meeting with thegirl and the adventure in her garden. Among the visitors, the oldman was somebody and all the teachers, men and women, made upto him in many different ways.Then it was the time to give prize to those children who hadgot ten yellow tickets. The room was quiet. Nobody had enough tickets. When hope was dead, Tom Sawyer stood up with nine yellow tickets, nine red ones and ten blue ones. Tom Sawyer stood in the front of the room, and all the children looked at him with eagerness. Then, the children all of a sudden realized that they were cheated by Tom Sawyer. The teacher didn’t believe Tom Sawyer could get so many tickets, but the number of tickets was exact. The prize was given to Tom Sawyer and he was introduced to the old man.作者简介马克·吐温(Mark Twain l835~1910)美国作家。

本名塞谬尔·朗赫恩·克莱门斯。

马克·吐温是其笔名。

出生于密西西比河畔小城汉尼拔的一个乡村贫穷律师家庭,从小出外拜师学徒。

当过排字工人,密西西比河水手、南军士兵,还经营过木材业、矿业和出版业,但有效的工作是当记者和写作幽默文学。

马克·吐温是美国批判现实主义文学的奠基人,世界著名的短篇小说大师。

他经历了美国从“自由”资本主义到帝国主义的发展过程,其思想和创作也表现为从轻快调笑到辛辣讽刺再到悲观厌世的发展阶段。

他的早期创作,如短篇小说《竞选州长》(1870)、《哥尔斯密的朋友再度出洋》(1870)等,以幽默、诙谐的笔法嘲笑美国“民主选举”的荒谬和“民主天堂”的本质。

中期作品,如长篇小说《镀金时代》(1874,与华纳合写)、代表作长篇小说《哈克贝里·费恩历险记》(1886)及《傻瓜威尔逊》(1893)等,则以深沉、辛辣的笔调讽刺和揭露像瘟疫般盛行于美国的投机、拜金狂热,及暗无天日的社会现实与惨无人道的种族歧视。

《哈克贝里·费恩历险记》通过白人小孩哈克跟逃亡黑奴吉姆结伴在密西西比河流浪的故事,不仅批判封建家庭结仇械斗的野蛮,揭露私刑的毫无理性,而且讽刺宗教的虚伪愚昧,谴责蓄奴制的罪恶,并歌颂黑奴的优秀品质,宣传不分种族地位人人都享有自由权利的进步主张。
