高二英語Unit 16(全)(人教版高二英語下冊教案教學設計)

一. 教材分析

㈠. 教學內容

本單元的中心話題是 “美國” ,課文圍繞 “美國南部” 及 “美洲平原上的野牛” 展開, 讓人感受美國的變遷過程. 本單元有助於培養學生跨文化交際意識,進一步拓寬視野,爲終身學習奠定良好的基礎.

“熱身”(Warming up)部分, 給我們提供了三幅畫面,有利於我們從宏觀上和微觀上把握美國地理特徵.練習題引導學生從美國的歷史淵源,經濟等方面認識美國,有利於學生的探究學習.

“聽力”(Listening) 部分設定了三個練習,由淺到深,層層深入. 練習1不僅有利於我們瞭解紐約市,而且有利於培養學生在聽力中快速捕捉資訊的能力. 練習2 和3有助於學生了解美國的背景知識,豐富學生的文化內涵.

“口語”(Speaking)部分要求學生根據提示描述一個場所.題目設定貼近學生生活. 教師除了課本所提示的說明處,還可以引導學生描述自己的學校.

“讀前”(Pre-reading) 部分設計了兩個練習.練習1要求學生列一份自己家鄉的年表,並列出重要的事件以及變化過程,討論其前因後果. 練習2 要求學生在年表上填寫美國曆史上發生的五件大事, 這有利於訓練學生的邏輯思維能力,爲閱讀有關美國曆史的課文做準備.

“閱讀”(Reading)部分 “美國南部” (The American South), 介紹了南部------一部充滿災難的歷史, 同時也是一部充滿成功與希望的歷史.文章重點介紹了美國南部佐治亞亞特蘭大市自內戰以來的發展和變化. 着重闡述了反對種族隔離制度鬥爭的美國民權運動, 及其傑出的領袖馬丁.路德.金的鬥爭精神. 透過閱讀這篇文章可以瞭解,美國是個多民族的多元文化國家. 由於文章涉及美國曆史的變化, 城市的發展, 需要對比的手法描寫, 本篇文章可稱得上是一篇對比性寫作的範文.

“讀後”(Post-reading)部分練習1有利於學生透過實例來闡明觀點. 練習2 要求學生進行兩人小組討論或者多人小組討論, 題目強調了語篇意識,設定層次性強,有利於培養學生的思辨能力.

“語言學習”(Language Study)部分包含詞彙和語法兩部份. 詞彙學習涉及構詞法知識,設計新穎,看似簡單,其實靈活, 有助於學生留意某些詞加後綴時意義的變化, 有利於避免負遷移. 語法練習2考察學生在語篇中使用非限定動詞的能力, 注重學生綜合素質的提高.

“綜合技能”(Integrating Skills)部分包含閱讀和寫作. 透過閱讀 “美洲平原上的野牛” , 人們瞭解了美國曆史上大規模屠宰野牛,破壞美洲草原生物鏈的教訓. 寫作部分要求學生寫一封電子郵件, 幫助美國學生了解中國.這就需要學生在理解教材的基礎上,從面積,人口,語言,民族,重要城市等方面比較美國於中國的區別.這項任務有利於提高學生的語言運用能力.特別是語言概括能力.

“學習建議”(Tips)部分指導要求學生開展寫對比分析文章,以及學生寫作時要注意的相關事項.

“複習要點”(Check points) 透過練習引導學生對非限定動詞作一次小結,並對要求學生對描述處所的詞彙進行一次小結,有利於培養學生的自學能力.

二．課時安排和教學思路

本單元的中心話題是美國。我們將本單元的學習設計成從美國的東部經南部到西部的一次文化旅行。從美國的概況，東部城市（紐約和 Ellis Island），南部城市（Atlanta），和西部大草原（bison）來了解美國， 感受美國的變遷過程。。

Period 1 Warming up &speaking

本節課從一個“猜猜她是哪個國家”的遊戲匯入。接着透過美國地圖和一張表格來了解她的概況。然後是一組圖片（包括著名的城市和人物），目的是爲聽力和閱讀做鋪墊，降低難度。再做一個對錯小測試，增加學生對美國的瞭解。根據遊戲的做法進入口語部分。要求學生寫一小段文字描述一個場所，用上useful expression, 讓其他學生猜猜是哪裏。在寫之前先造句，掌握常用句型Are there…? There is … the north ..。It is …es/ feet long/wide/ high/tall…. It looks like …..

Period 2 Listening &Reading

本節課的中心話題是東部城市紐約和 Ellis Island，透過聽力和閱讀兩個環節完成。先從圖片引出紐約城，進入聽力。她是美國甚至世界重要的城市，有必要增加一些資訊量所以要求學生再閱讀一段短文（從高三閱讀文章中摘出3小段），增加資訊量。透過幾個對錯判斷來檢查學生的理解程度。

Period 3&4 Reading

首先播放兩小段視頻。一是描述美國南部過去災難和戰爭的《飄》，另一個是展現Atlanta的現代與富裕。兩者形成鮮明對比，自然匯入本節課的學習內容。Skimming透過回答問題了解文章的篇章結構和中心內容。Scanning細節理解，主要是透過完成表格，來對比Atlanta的今天和昨天，突出文章重點(明白Atlanta爲什麼是典型的南部城市及她又克服了哪些困難才成爲一個現代的大都市)及對比性寫作的特點。聽完課文錄音後，要求學生完成一個任務設計，編一段對話。。假設你是一個歷史系的學生來到Atlanta旅行，你的筆友帶你參觀Atlanta，你們一起討論Atlanta的過去和現在。透過對話編寫來檢查學生對課文的理解掌握，複習所學的內容。最後拓展思維，不同文化背景的人生活在一個城市裏，有何好處和不利之處。

Period 5 Language study

由聽寫匯入複習部分詞彙。然後複習構詞法。接着是複習非謂語的被動形式。最後透過選擇題全面檢查學生對這語法項目的掌握情況。

Period 6 Integrating Skill

由bison的圖片匯入閱讀文章。透過回答問題。細節理解，對錯判斷。完成圖表，來了解美國西部歷史上大規模屠宰野牛,破壞美洲草原生物鏈的教訓.。最後是寫作任務。採用對比手法，幫助美國學生了解你的家鄉。

三．教學反思

本單元的話題是美國，着重引導學生注意美國曆史的變遷。其實美國的文化，建築，地理特徵，名勝古蹟，民間傳說，民俗特色，政權形式，科學成就都很值得老師引導學生去了解，這對學好英語是有很大的幫助的。 尤其是能夠體會領悟美國的社會特徵和人文特點，在學生閱讀文章時就能夠減少好多障礙。但是內容涉及很廣，我們不可能在一個單元的時間內讓學生都瞭解，但是應當鼓勵學生上網或去圖書館查閱資料，自主學習。同時也應該提醒學生思考中國和美國這兩個國家的相似的地方和不同的地方，做一些比較。

Step.3 Reading

Now let’s know more about NY by read the following material. (adapted from SB3 Lesson 49)

New York

New York is built on a group of islands on the east coast of the USA at a point where several rivers flow into the ocean. The first westerner to discover these islands was Italian explorer in 1524. In 1626 the island of Manhattan was bought from local Indians, Native Americans, for a handful of goods worth about $24. Today Native Americans express their anger over this business deal. After the War of Independence ended, New York became the capital of the USA for a short time (1789--90) before Washington, D.C.

The building of skyscrapers in New York began around the year 1900. Because Manhattan Island is made of solid rock, it is safe to build very tall buildings. A 55-stored building went up in 1913 , and in 1931 the Empire State Building was completed., then the tallest building in the world. It has 102 storeys and 73 lifts. From the top of it, you could see up to a distance of 130 kilometres on a clear day. Today it is no longer the tallest building in the USA, or even in New York. The World trade Centre , an office building for over 1200 firms employing about 50,000 people, is even higher at 411 metres. The twins towers are 110 storeys high, but high-speed lifts controlled by computer take only a minute to reach the top. The towers are further apart at the top than at the base, but this is no mistake. This is because the surface of the earth is not flat but round. But unfortunately the twin towers were destroyed by terrorist attack on Sep11,2001. …….

New York never sleeps. The underground railway runs 24 hours a day, and there are all –night cinemas, bars and restaurants. Some people think that the weather is unpleasant, the city ugly and dirty, the competition fierce and the streets unsafe. It is a city in a hurry, but a very exciting place to be.

e islands were first discovered by an Italian explorer in 1524.

3. New York became the capital of the USA for a short time after Washington, D.C.
