課時跟蹤練(三)Ⅰ.閱讀理解

A Thanksgiving Day is a special holiday in the United States and Canada.Families and friends gather to eat and give thanks for their blessings.Thanksgiving Day is really a harvest festival.This is why it is celebrated in late fall, after the crops are in.But one of the first thanksgivings in America had nothing to do with a good harvest.On December 4,1619, the Pilgrims from England landed near what is now Charles City, Virginia.They knelt down and thanked God for their safe journey across the Atlantic.The first New England Thanksgiving did celebrate a rich harvest.The Pilgrims landed at what is now Plymouth, Massachusetts, in 1620.They had a difficult time and the first winter was cruel.Many of the Pilgrims died.But the next year, they had a good harvest.So Governor Bradford declared a three-day feast(盛宴).The Pilgrims invited Indian friends to join them for their special feast, Everyone brought food.In time, other colonies(殖民地)began to celebrate a day of thanksgiving.But it took years before there was a national Thanksgiving Day.During the Civil War, Sarah Josepha Hale persuaded Abraham Lincoln to do something about it.He proclaimed(宣布)the last Thursday of November 1863 as a day of thanksgiving.Today, Americans celebrate this happy harvest festival on the fourth Thursday in November.Canadians celebrate Thanksgiving Day in much the same way as their American neighbours.But the Canadian Thanksgiving Day falls on the second Monday in October.語篇解讀：本文介紹了感恩節的來歷以及各地慶祝的方式。

B Several different stories are told about the origin of Saint Valentine’s Day.One legend dates as far back as the days of the Roman Empire.According to the story, Claudius, the Emperor of Rome, wanted to increase the size of his army.He knew that it would be easier to get young men who were not married to join.Therefore he made a rule that no young man could marry until he had served a certain number of years in the army.A priest(牧師)named Valentine broke the rule and secretly married a great many young people.Finally, Claudius found out about Valentine and put the priest in prison, where he remained until his death on February 14.After his death, Valentine was made a saint(圣人), and the day of his death was named Saint Valentine’s Day.It became the custom for lovers to send each other message on this day.Now Saint Valentine’s Day is a time for people to send one another

greetings of many kinds.February 14, Valentine’s Day, is sweethearts’ day, on which people in love with each other express their tender(溫柔的)emotions.People sometimes put their love message in a heart-shaped box of chocolates, or a bunch of flowers tied with red ribbons(帶子).Words of letters may be written on the flower covered card, or something else.Whatever the form may be, the message is almost the same: “Will you be my Valentine？”

語篇解讀：本文是一篇說明文。介紹了一個關于圣瓦倫丁節傳奇故事以及如今人們慶祝圣瓦倫丁節的方式。

1．Valentine was put in prison because ________.A．he secretly got married B．he didn’t serve in the army C．he married many young people secretly D．he broke the laws 解析：選C 細節理解題。根據第二段中的“A priest(牧師)named Valentine broke the rule...”可得出答案。

C It is common and usual to see people freak_out when they face challenges in their life.We all pass in different life problems and challenges.No one is free of life problems.Only a dead man faces no problem.As long as you are alive, challenges are everywhere.How do you face problems and challenges in your life? Problems and challenges are the building blocks of your personality.They make you who you are.Besides, whether what happened in your life builds or destructs you depends on how you look at it.If you take your problems as troubles, they will be troubles and may cause destruction.If you take them as constructive tools, you are going to be built up on them.Problems are everywhere.No one can avoid them.And they are good too.They open up a different look and opportunity if you are willing to see.When you face troubles, do not frustrate or freak out.Just cool yourself to think in a different direction.Think in a positive way.Every problem has its own good as well as bad sides.Focus on the good one.Look at the bright side.Besides, there is always a good person, perhaps your mom or dad, or one of your friends, right beside you who can turn everything into your best if you are willing to turn to them.No matter what happens, they will be there to help you.Trust them and they will never let you down.All you need to know is that you are loved wherever you are.語篇解讀：本文是議論文。人生難免會遇到困難，沒有人可以避免困難，但是困難能開闊視野，也能提供機會。

9．What’s the meaning of the underlined phrase “freak out” in Paragraph 1? A．Feel shy.C．Feel happy.B．Feel upset.D．Stay calm.解析：選B 詞義猜測題。由本句“when they face challenges in their life”可猜測freak out意為“心煩意亂的，不安的”。

10．In Paragraph 2, the writer implies that ________.A．problems cause troubles B．challenges can be avoided C．attitude is everything D．personalities are built on failures 解析：選C 推理判斷題。由文章第二段“If you take your problems as troubles...If you take them as constructive tools”可知態度決定一切，故C為正確選項。

11．According to the last paragraph, when we’re in trouble, we ________.A．can only depend on our parents B．are not confident C．should only believe ourselves D．are not alone 解析：選D 細節理解題。由文章最后一段“Besides, there is always a good person...right beside you”可知當處于困境時，我們并不孤獨，故D為正確選項。

12．What’s the writer’s purpose to write the passage? A．To explain.C．To prove.B．To compare.D．To encourage.解析：選D 推理判斷題。本文論述了人生難免會遇到困難，但是困難也能開闊視野，也能提供機會。最后作者告訴人們無論在什么情況下，都有人在你身邊。故本文是鼓勵的語氣。

Lesson4 Superhero(說課稿）

大家好，今天我說課的內容是北師大版高中英語必修一第二單元lesson4 Superhero。下面我將從教材分析、學情分析、教法學法、教學過程以及教學反思等五方面來展開。

一、教材分析

1.本教材是北京師范大學出版社出版的普通高中課程標準實驗教科書，本課是高一必修模塊一第二單元第四課的閱讀課型，本單元圍繞“英雄”展開，涉及中西方文化中的許多英雄人物，內容豐富，十分重要。本節課的教學思想是在英語教學中落實新課程標準，在教學過程中與學生積極互動，共同探討，并且引導學生調查、探究，幫助學生掌握一定的閱讀技巧，形成自主、合作的學習方法，使每個學生都能學有所得。

2.教學目標

知識與技能：1）通過啟發式閱讀，學生能理解文章大意；2）掌握與主題有關的一些詞匯，表達方式；3）學生的閱讀技能可以得到提高。

過程與方法：通過課堂活動，學生自主以及合作解決問題的能力得以提高，創新思維能力得到發展。

情感態度與價值觀：通過對現實生活中的superhero及其事跡的學習，培養學生頑強不屈應對各種挑戰的精神。

3.重難點

重點：重點詞匯及表達方式的掌握；通過快速閱讀掌握文章大意，解決問題

難點：熟練運用英語表達看法，交流觀點。

二、學情分析

優點：大多數學生來自較優秀的中學，基礎好，基本功扎實；對本課主題很感興趣，有深入了解的欲望

缺點：創新能力不強，快速反應能力較差

三、教法學法

教法：根據當前的教學改革尤其是課程改革的先進理念，以及高一學生的知識和能力水平，為達成前面所說的教學目標，我認為應采用任務教學法、交際教學法、愉悅教學法相結合的形式展開教學，這里所提到的每一種教學方法都不是孤立存在的，它們的有機結合能充分調動學生的學習積極性，能收到良好的效果。

學法：本著“授人以魚，不如授人以漁”的教學原則，我認為學生的課堂學習方法應主要是自主學習法、合作學習法、討論學習法以及創新學習法。這些學習方法使學生既學到了知識，又培養了能力，更增進了感情，一舉三得，應用于閱讀課尤為必要。

四、教學過程 Step1：Lead-in 通過導入有關超人以及主人公的一些圖片讓學生預測文章內容，了解一些相關的背景知識并且激發學生的學習興趣，活躍課堂氣氛。Step2：Presentation Task1：Words and expressions 通過對一些詞匯及表達的學習使學生掌握一些基本語言點，且有助于接下來的閱讀部分學習。Task2：Skimming 在閱讀基本無障礙的基礎上要求學生運用相關閱讀技巧快速略讀文章，主要是集中注意力，抓關鍵詞，找出段落主旨句等方法。回答一道與段落大意有關的習題，意在提高學生的閱讀能力，主要是快速找到主旨句的能力。Task3: Scanning 要求學生通過查讀的方法解決幾道判斷題，同時提醒學生應當注意具體的有關信息，而不必通讀全文。這樣做是為了鍛煉學生在閱讀中掌握關鍵信息的能力。Task4：Careful reading 在精讀練習中，我會讓學生精讀一遍課文，然后根據課文內容，完成我所給出的表格中的信息填寫。精讀過程中，有必要對語言點進行系統的學習。Step3：Group work Discussion：我們能從superhero的事跡中學到什么?讓學生通過討論各抒己見，用英文發表自己的看法。這樣做主要是為了鍛煉同學們的口語表達能力，也能培養學生應對困難，團結協作的精神。Step4：Reflection 在此過程中引導學生對今天所學知識技能進行梳理，加深印象，鞏固所學。Step5：Homework 布置同學們寫一封信給自己的朋友，內容就是告訴他關于Christopher Reeve的故事。既能提高學生的寫作能力，也能鞏固本節課的所學內容。Step6：Blackboard design 居中寫上本課的標題，黑板左邊板書一些重點詞匯，語言點等，右邊填寫作業的布置。

五、教學反思

1.首先我認為鑒于本節課是一節閱讀課，因此激發學生的閱讀興趣很重要。2.把閱讀和練習結合起來，形式多樣，收效明顯。

3.注重學生綜合語言運用能力的培養，不只局限于閱讀，但又不顯得繁雜。

以上是我的說課內容，謝謝！

English Tea And Coffee Culture

One thing British and Chinese cultures share is a love for fine tea.Today, when we think of the English and beautiful china tea cups.Afternoon Tea

People believe that an English duchess, Anna, the 7th Duchess of Bedford(1788-1861)first introduced the idea of afternoon tea.In the 18th and 19th centuries, the English ate only two main meals each day – breakfast and a heavy supper that would last for several hours in the evening.As a result, people often got these two meals.To solve this problem, the Duchess came up with the clever idea of inviting some friends to join her fir an afternoon meal between four and five o?clock.This meal included cakes and sandwiches, and tea was served to wash down the food.In order to make this afternoon meal important, fine china cups and plates, and silver teapots, knives, forks and spoons were used.Soon, afternoon tea parties became popular social occasions.Today, afternoon tea parties continue to play an important part in the social life of wealthy people in modern Britain.Will you come for coffee? Coffee also has an important role in British culture.People often use the words “will you come for coffee?” to mean “Would you like to come to my home for a chat?” Normally, several different drink like orange juice will be served as well as coffee, and you will be asked what you would like.However, you will not normally be offered wine at a “coffee” party.Coffeehouses and the London Stock Exchange

In the 17th century London, coffeehouses were busy, noisy places.Merchants and bankers went to coffeehouses to do their business, as well as to drink coffee.In fact, the London Stock Exchange is believed to have started from these coffeehouses.文化角

英國茶和咖啡文化

一個英國和中國文化共享是一個愛的好茶。今天，當我們認為英語和美麗的中國茶。

下午茶

人們認為，英國公爵夫人，安娜，第七貝德福德公爵夫人（1788-1861）首先介紹了下午茶的想法。在第十八和第十九世紀，英國只吃兩個主餐每一天–早餐和豐盛的晚餐會持續幾個小時在晚上。因此，人們經常把這些兩餐。為了解決這個問題，公爵夫人想出邀請一些朋友到她的杉木四和五點之間一個下午餐的聰明的主意。這頓飯有蛋糕和三明治，茶是用來沖洗食物。為了使下午茶的重要，好的瓷器杯子和盤子，銀質的茶壺，刀子，叉子和勺子被使用。很快，下午茶變成了流行的社交場合。今天，下午茶聚會中繼續發揮富人在現代英國社會生活的一個重要組成部分。

你要來杯咖啡嗎？

At the bottom of the bed was the stocking, now full of kinds of small presents and sweets.Christmas morning was bright and I went out into the garden to play a lunch!Was bright and sunny and, after church, my with our new presents.Lunch was always late, but what a lunch!A big turkey with all the vegetables followed put so much food in my mouth sometimes that it was laughed at jokes, put on silly paper hats and laughed again.After lunch, the adults slept on the sofas in front of the Queen?s speech on television whole we all played cards.Then we had tea, with a huge Christmas cake covered eating.By bedtime all of thr children were very tired.As soon as we turned off the light, we all fell into a deep, happy sleep.④圣誕節 圣誕回憶

Happy Halloween!

Over 2000 years ago, people known as the Celts lived in Northern Europe.They worshipped the sun god and believed the god made their crops grow.On the night of 31 October, after their crops had been harvested and stored for winder, the Celts began a 3-day New Year holiday.During this time, they offered crops and dead animals to thank the god and danced in costumes made from animal heads and skin.Later, when the Romans invaded Europe.They adopted the Celts? New Year customs and used them in their own festivals.After 835 AD, the Catholic Church in Europe invented a holiday on 1 November, All Hallow?s Day, to honour saints.Later, it invented another holiday on 2 November, All Souls? Day, to honour dead people.To celebrate All Souls? Day, people, made big bonfires and dressed up as angels, devils, saints and witches.They lit candles in lanterns made of hollowed-out turnip or pumpkin to frighten away ghosts.On this night, people also traveled from village to village to ask for food.It was believed that any village that did not give food would have bad luck.Gradually, over the years, the Celtic, Roman and Catholic customs and holidays got mixed together, and finally 31 October became known as Halloween.In the nineteenth century, Irish immigrants took Halloween customs from Europe to the USA.Today, in the USA and the UK in particular, Halloween has become a special occasion for young people.In these countries, children wear spooky costumes and go from door to door saying “Trick or treat!” and they are given sweets to take home.文化角 萬圣節快樂！

2000多年前，人們稱為凱爾特人居住在歐洲北部。他們崇拜太陽神，認為神造他們的作物生長。在10月31日夜，在莊稼已收割和儲存的繞線機，凱爾特人開始了為期3天的新年假期。在這段時間內，他們提供的作物和動物尸體感謝上帝和從動物的頭和皮服裝跳舞。

后來，當羅馬人入侵歐洲。他們采用了凱爾特人的新年習俗和使用他們自己的節日。在公元835年，歐洲的天主教了假日，在1十一月，萬圣節，紀念圣徒。后來，它發明了另一個節日在十一月2，萬靈節，紀念死去的人。為了慶祝萬靈節，人，大篝火，裝扮成天使，魔鬼，圣徒和巫婆。他們點燃蠟燭制成鏤空的蘿卜還是南瓜嚇跑鬼燈籠。在這個晚上，人們也專程從村莊找食物。據認為，任何的村莊，不給食物會帶來壞運氣。

漸漸地，在過去的幾年中，凱爾特人，羅馬天主教的習俗和節日混合到一起，并最終成為被稱為萬圣節十月31。

在第十九世紀，愛爾蘭移民把萬圣節習俗從歐洲到美國。今天，在美國和英國，萬圣節已經成為年輕人的一個特殊的場合。在這些國家，孩子們穿著怪異的服裝和挨家挨戶說“惡作劇還是款待！“給他們糖果帶回家。

“Are you the Ghost of Christmas Future?” Scrooge asked nervously.The ghost did not answer.It took Scrooge and showed him scenes of the future.In one people were talking about Scrooge?s death, but not one person was unhappy about it.The ghost also took him to the Cratchit family.The family was very sad.The little boy, Tiny Tim, him died.The next morning Scrooge opened his window and asked, “What day is it today?”

“Why sir, it?s Christmas Day,” replied a young boy in the street.“Merry Christmas!Merry Christmas!” He wished everybody he saw Merry Christmas.He met the man who had asked for money for the poor and gave him a large sum of money.Scrooge then went and visited his nephew and had the best Christmas dinner in his life.The next day he went to his office early.He waited for Bob Cratchit.“You are late!” said Scrooge in an angry voice.“Yes, I?m very sorry…” replied poor Bob.“In that case, I?m afraid I?m going to…increase your salary!Merry Christmas, Bob!”

From that day, Scrooge was the happiest man in the world.He gave money to the poor.He helped Bob Cratchit?s family.And people always said of him: “he knew how to celebrate Christmas.”
