高中英语 Unit 5 Canada—“The True North”Section Ⅰ Warmi
Section I Warming Up & ReadingⅠ.阅读理解AThe first people in Canada crossed the Bering Strait from Asia. In the north the Inuit lived by hunting seals, walruses (海象) and whales. They also hunted caribou (北美驯鹿). On the west coast people hunted deer, bear and beaver (河狸). They also fished. On the plains people lived by hunting buffalo. In the east people grew crops of beans, squash (南瓜), maize (玉米) and sunflower seeds.The first Europeans to reach Canada were the Vikings. In 986 a Viking called Bjarni Herjolfsson was blown off course by a storm and he spotted a new land. However he sailed away without landing. In 1001 a man named Leif Eriksson landed in the new land, which he named Vinland (it was part of Canada). However Eriksson did not stay permanently. Later the Vikings did establish a colony (殖民地) in North America but they abandoned it because of conflict with the natives.However after the Vikings Canada was forgotten until the end of the 15th century. In 1497 the English king Henry Ⅶ sent an Italian na med John Cabot on an expedition across the Atlantic to Newfoundland. Cabot discovered rich fishing waters off the coast of Canada.Then in 1534 and in 1535～1536 a Frenchman named Jacques Cartier (1491～1557) sailed on two expeditions to Canada. On 10 August 1535 (St Lawrence's Day) he sailed into the St Lawrence River，which he named after the saint.However no permanent European settlements were made in Canada until the early 17th century. In 1603 a Frenchman named Samuel de Champlain (1567～1635) sailed up the St Lawrence River. In 1604 he founded Port Royal in Acadia (Nova Scotia). In 1608 Samuel de Champlain founded Quebec. (The name Quebec is believed to be an Algonquin word meaning a narrow part of a river). In 1642 the French founded Montreal. The new colony in Canada was called New France. By 1685 the population of New France was about 10,000. By 1740 it was 48,000.【语篇解读】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了加拿大人口的构成与城市的逐渐形成。

At the beginning of the class, the teacher can lead in the topic of the unit by showing students a map of Canada or other pictures of Canada and let the students describe them or talk about Canada.Warming Up is intended to find out how much general knowledge students already have about Canada. It will also give a chance to those who have visited or read about Canada to share their knowledge with the rest of the class. So allow students some time to give short talks, show photographs, etc. and motivate others to become interested in Canada too.Pre-reading contains three questions which encourage students to reflect on their personal experiences and information and their own ideas. This discussion leads to the reading passage in which they may find some facts they recognize as well as new information. Students can be encouraged to discuss these questions. Then they are asked to look at the title of the reading passage and the pictures to predict what the passage is about. This part is very useful for the next part Reading.The reading passage A TRIP ON “THE TRUE NORTH” describes a trip across Canada by train. Have students read the passage by themselves and identify new words and expressions. As they read, ask them to find the places mentioned on the map of Canada. It is useful to have them discuss with a partner what they think the new vocabulary mean, and to work together on the map. The teacher can identify new words and structures that students might find difficult and pre-teach them to make the reading easier. Students are encouraged to skim for the general idea and scan for further understanding. After reading, students are required to do the exercises in Comprehending to see how much they have understood the reading passage. The teacher can let them work in pairs or in groups to find the answers cooperatively, and then check their answers with the whole class. Meanwhile, deal with any language problems that students meet.To consolidate the contents of the reading passage, students should be required to read the passage again and then retell it. In order to arouse their interest, the teacher can hold a competition. The teacher also needs to make a summary on the passage including the general idea, writing characteristics, and so on to let students understand the passage further at the end of the class.教学重点1.

Unit 5 Canada—“The True North”Section ⅠWarming Up & Reading—Prereading Ⅰ.阅读理解AThis is Tornado and Severe Weather (龙卷风与恶劣天气) Awareness Week.It’s important to know what to do and where to go during severe weather.A Wisconsin couple says an early warning could have been the difference between life and death when a tornado hit last summer.Larry and Rita Krznarich were camping in northern Wisconsin last year.The day started off nice，but took a turn for the worse in the evening.So they turned on their weather radio.“I turned the radio on and there was a specific warning：A storm is about to hit the TurtleFlambeau.Take cover immediately，” says Larry Krznarich.“I said to Rita，‘Head for the table.I’m going to warn the neighbors.’”Larry joined Rita under the picnic table and within minutes a tornado hit.A falling tree hit Larry and broke his leg bone，but without the warning the couple says things could have been worse.“The tent，where we may have been if not for the weather radio，was completely covered by trees；all of our things were completely covered，”says Rita Krznarich.With spring here，people are being reminded to plan for severe weather.That includes buying a weather radio.“The great thing about the weather radio is that it’s instantaneous.It’s directly from the weather service，so you’re getting information at exactly the same time they’re getting it，” says Tod Pritchard，Emergency Preparedness Coordinator.Larry has recovered from his injuries and now the couple makes sure everyone they know has a weather radio.“Ever since the storm，we’ve given weather radios as gifts to people.You can get them for $20 so there’s no excuse not to have one or a couple，”says Larry.语篇解读本文是记叙文。

为什么加拿大会有郁金香节呢？The Canadian Tulip FestivalEach year in the first week of May, Canada's capital city of Ottawa becomes a flower ocean.These beautiful flowers announce the arrival of spring and the official opening of the Canadian Tulip Festival, which is the world's largest tulip festival.Why does Ottawa celebrate the tulip festival with such enthusiasm(热情)? Thetradition began about 70 years ago. The German army had invaded(侵略) the Netherlands in May 1940, and the royal family was forced to run away from their country. They went first to London then on to Ottawa where they were given Government House as a shelter. In 1943, Princess Juliana's daughter, Princess Margriet was born at the Ottawa Civic Hospital.After the royal family returned to their homeland in 1945, Princess Juliana gave 100,000 tulip bulbs to the Canadian government and the citizens of Ottawa as a reward. This started a tradition and every year ever since, another 100,000 tulip bulbs were sent to Ottawa and planted all around the city.

Unit 5 Canada-“The True North” Period One Warming Up & Reading 话题导入Canada is one of the few nations in the world to have two official languages：English and French.There are 10 provinces in the country but only one of these—Quebec—is known as “French Canada”．This is because it was founded by French explorers while British adventurers discovered the rest.Canada left the British empire in 1867 to become an independent country，and English and French have been recognized as the official languages ever since.Most people speak English as their first language and the two national television networks broadcast in English throughout the country.Apart from in Quebec and a few places on the east coast，French television is very rare.The same goes for ，for example.Outside of Quebec，there are only a few places where you’ll see traffic signs in French.And in restaurants，it’s almost impossible to find French on the menu unless you are in the heartland of “French Canada”．However，all products sold in Canada must，by law，have labels and instructions in both languages.In Canada’s Englishspeaking provinces，official bilingualism(双语) means that students can choose to complete a special French language course.Under this programme，they are taught most of their subjects in French.If a student begins the course in kindergarten or Grade One，it is likely that all their lessons will be in French.However，if they start at junior high school,25 percent of the teaching will continue to be in English.根据上文完成下列各题1．Where can you watch French television programmes?In Quebec and a few other places.2．Which country ruled Canada before its independence?Britain.3．Fill in the blank in Paragraph 4 with proper words.(no more than 5 words) traffic signs and menusPeriod One Warming Up & ReadingⅠ.单词1．v.chat聊天measure测量surround包围2．n.quiz测验minister大臣continent洲，大陆baggage行李scenery风景harbour海港border边界acre英亩eagle鹰3．adj.Canadian加拿大的prime首要的eastward向东的westward向西的upward向上的slight轻微的urban城市的multicultural多种文化的Ⅱ.短语1．与其；不愿rather than2．定居；平静下来settle down3．设法做manage to do4．看见；瞥见catch sight of5．对……有天赋have a gift for1．Rather than take the aeroplane all the way，they decided to fly to Vancouver and then take the train from west to east across Canada.她们不想一路乘飞机，而决定先飞到温哥华，再从西海岸乘火车横穿加拿大到达东海岸。
