The Internet celebrity Gao Yifeng. Years ago, he owned 5 companies and the staffs over 1,000, but during the economy crisis, he became nothing but debt. He was so worried that his hair became white overnight. There was a time when he wanted to killed himself. But after listening to the song Start Over by Liu Huan, he decided to cheer himself up. He started a steamed bun shop and gradually became a national chain shops. Now he became successful again.Walter Haddon said, “Music is the medicine of a troubled mind.” Music contains such a pleasant and inspiring force. Music gave him courage and bravery. When he listened to the song, it made his spirit fly like a kite in the wind. Music gave him strength and brought him relief. It was the rock I leant on to become strong and to get through those hard times. I hope none of us have to go through the same kind of suffering that he did. At the same time, we all go through various periods when we feel sad or alone. During those times, music can help us in the same way that it helped him. I hope we all will somehow begin to treasure music and make it a part of our life. Thank you for your listening !5.Revise your writing each other.Does he/she explain how music has changed his/her/someone else’s life?Are some of the rhetorical devices included and used properly ?Does he/she talk about how music makes him/her/someone feel?Is the first word in each sentences capitalised?Does he/she use correct punctuation ?

Finish Exercise 4 on Page 15 of the textbook.A smart home is one that integrated computers into the structure of the building itself. In this way, many of the things that we now do ourselves become automatic. For example, the smart home could control the air conditioning and lights so that you would no longer have to turn switches on and off, and so that your home would be more energy-efficient. The smart home could also monitor itself to make sure that everything is working as it should, and send you warnings if there is a problem. Such smart homes could even be programmed to detect your health problems, and then give you reasonable advice as to the food you should eat or if you should see a doctor. So, in a sense, smart homes will lead us to living smarter lives.2.Create a smart function for your home, and share your creation in the next period.

This unit is about history and traditions. From the opening page, we can know that this unit will introduce the history and traditions around the world. As Marcus Garvey says “A people without the knowledge of their past history, origin and culture is like a tree without roots”, it is important for students to realize the importance and value of knowing the history and traditions and their further meanings. And this part ( listening and speaking ) is divided into two parts: Part A---share views on historic sites, Part B ---talk about a visit to a historic tourist destination. By talking with a foreigner, the speakers introduce the historic attractions and their cultures. Part A is that William, a British student, who was going to visit the Confucius Temple and a Chinese student, Xiao Kong, who was going to the Confucius Temple to meet with the members of the research group, went together and exchanged their views on the Confucius Temple, Confucius, Confucius' descendants and Confucius' educational thoughts. Part B is a conversation between Xiao Yan, a youth hostel receptionist and Paul, a backpacker about the feelings and experience after visiting the Chinese famous tourist attraction Pingyao.1.

Step1:自主探究。1.(教材P52)Born(bear) in the USA on 2 January 1970, Whitacre began studying music at the University of Nevada in 1988.2.(教材P52) Moved(move) by this music, he said, “It was like seeing color for the first time.”3.(教材P56)I was very afraid and I felt so alone and discouraged(discourage).4.(教材P58)Encouraged(encourage) by this first performance and the positive reaction of the audience, I have continued to play the piano and enjoy it more every day.Step2:语法要点精析。用法1:过去分词作表语1).过去分词可放在连系动词be, get, feel, remain, seem, look, become等之后作表语,表示主语所处的状态Tom was astonished to see a snake moving across the floor.汤姆很惊讶地看到一条蛇正爬过地板。Finally the baby felt tired of playing with those toys.终于婴儿厌倦了玩那些玩具。注意:1).过去分词作表语时与被动语态的区别过去分词作表语时,强调主语所处的状态;而动词的被动语态表示主语是动作的承受者,强调动作。The library is now closed.(状态)图书馆现在关闭了。The cup was broken by my little sister yesterday.(动作)昨天我妹妹把杯子打碎了。2)感觉类及物动词的现在分词与过去分词作表语的区别过去分词作表语多表示人自身的感受或事物自身的状态,常译作“感到……的”;现在分词多表示事物具有的特性,常译作“令人……的”。
帮助学生通过讨论与对主题的提升,反思自己的旅游方式,以便做出更优化的安排,在今后的旅程中有更多的收益。 Activity 2: Further discussion of the 6 elements above and supplement of more background knowledge 本活动为实现课时教学目标2。 1.Target Q: The writer’s clear target of traveling, meeting the people and experiencing the culture, is closely related to his major in social studies. Then what is social studies? Social studies is a part of a school or college curriculum concerned with the study of social relationships and the functioning of society and usually made up of courses in history, government, economics, civics, sociology, geography, and anthropology. (Dictionary by Merriam-Webster) Reflection: When you go out to travel, what targets do you usually have in mind? 2.Research Q: Suppose you are traveling to Hangzhou during the school holidays, how will you do research on the city? (surf the internet, read books or travel brochures, consult friends, ...) What information will you be interested to know? (location, iconic sites, local cuisines, interesting customs, shopping malls ...) 3.Abandonment To make the most of time, we have to learn to abandon so that we can accomplish our plan.

(生练读课文)2.读出层次,概括内容师:请同学们自由朗读课文、借助课下注释,用自己的话把卖炭翁的故事讲给同桌听。故事示例:一个卖炭的老翁,一年到头都在终南山里砍柴、烧炭。他满脸灰尘,脸色完全是烟熏火燎的颜色;两鬓的头发已经斑白,十个指头却像炭一样黑。卖了炭得到一点钱,拿来做什么用呢?只不过是为了身上的衣裳和口中的饭食。可怜他身上的衣服破旧又单薄,但他却担心炭价太低,只盼望天气更加寒冷……(生自由朗读,根据课下注释理解内容,讲故事)师:请同学们用“人物+事件”的方式概述卖炭翁的遭遇。(生交流明确,师引导)预设 诗歌主要讲了一个卖炭翁辛苦烧的一车炭最终被宫使用半匹红纱一丈绫掠夺一空的故事。师:这首诗围绕着“炭”叙事,如果主体事件用“失炭”来概括的话,前面还记叙了哪些事?请同学们填空。
(1)看题目。题目中蕴含着诸多信息,如时间、地点、人物、事件以及诗人的心情、诗歌的意境、诗歌的类型等。抓住这一切入点,有助于我们理解诗歌的思想感情。(2)看作者。作品是作者思想情感的具体化,所以,要准确理解诗词,把握作品的思想感情,就不能脱离作者孤立地臆断。作者的生平、写作风格、思想等等,无不影响着作者的情绪,所以,在鉴赏作品时,首先要了解作者的相关背景等。(3)看时代。把握时代风貌特征,把诗歌放在时代背景下评析,才能准确领悟其蕴含的思想感情。(4)看意象。诗歌的创作讲究含蓄、凝练。诗人的抒情往往不是情感的直接流露,而是注重弦外之音、言外之意。写景则借景抒情,咏物则托物言志。因此意象也就是作者的主观感情与客观物象的完美结合,是诗人情感显现的载体。把握诗中的意象,就能参悟意境,理解诗中蕴含的情感。
海伦·凯勒一岁多时不幸染上疾病,致使她双目失明、双耳失聪,随之又丧失了说话的能力。从此,她坠入了一个黑暗而沉寂的世界,陷入了痛苦的深渊。17岁,海伦·凯勒考进哈佛大学,还掌握了英、法、德、拉丁和希腊五种语言。大学期间,她开始写作。毕业后,她把自己的一生献给了盲人福利和教育事业,并在繁忙的工作中先后完成了14部具有世界影响的著作,最著名的是其自传《假如给我三天光明》。海伦·凯勒无比敬爱和感激自己的老师莎莉文,她说:“假如给我三天光明,我首先要长久地凝视我的老师——安妮·莎莉文!”海伦把自己的学习分成四个步骤:1.每天用三个小时自学。2.用两个小时默记所学的知识。3.再用一个小时的时间将自己用三个小时所学的知识默写下来。4.剩下的时间她运用学过的知识练习写作。在学习与记忆的过程中,她只有一个信念:她一定能够把自己所学习的知识记下来,使自己成为一个有用的人。她每天坚持学习10个小时以上,经过长时间的刻苦学习,她掌握了大量的知识,能熟练地背诵大量的诗词和名著的精彩片段。
设问2:第3段和第4段都写繁华,两段的区别是什么?预设 第3段是概括总写繁华景象,第4段则是具体描绘繁华景象。两段之间是从概括到具体的逻辑关系。【设计意图】通过细读课文,让学生在把握生字词的基础上对课文有初步的感知,可以用简单的词语概括作者所感知画面的整体特点,而且能够用文中具体的语句加以印证。以此训练学生自主把握文章重要信息的能力。三、自主探究寻繁华1.浏览课文,理清全文的说明顺序设问1:作者介绍了这幅画哪些方面的信息?在文中进行勾画批注,并说说文章可分为哪几个部分,概括主要意思。(生浏览勾画,批注交流)预设 文章分为三个部分:第1段:介绍这幅画作的创作背景,引出本文的说明对象——《清明上河图》。第2段:介绍了这幅画作的作者张择端及其创作动机。
预设 清政府派遣这些留学生去国外留学,目的是学习国外先进的科学技术,回来报效国家,然而实际上他们在国外不学无术,忘记了自身使命和肩上的责任。作者在描写完留学生的这些丑态之后,采用了反语的手法,用一句话进行了总结——“实在标致极了”,仿佛是压抑不住的火山爆发,极尽讽刺之能事,酣发鄙夷、憎恶之胸臆。师:作者在这里采用了反语的手法,暗讽“清国留学生”们的丑态,除此之外,文中还有哪些地方运用了这种手法?预设 作者称日俄战争时的日本学生为“爱国青年”,说自己国内的论敌为“正人君子”,都是运用反语进行嘲讽。又如说日本对医学的翻译“并不比中国早”,说日本青年虽抗议托尔斯泰引用《新约》中的话,但他们“暗地里却早受了他的影响了”,都是话里有话,含义无穷的。【设计意图】此环节通过“咬文嚼字”,让学生学会从字里行间来品析文章深意,同时使学生进一步揣摩鲁迅先生“幽默讽刺、含蓄深蕴”的语言风格。
文帝之后六年,匈奴大入边。乃以宗正刘礼为将军,军霸上;祝兹侯徐厉为将军,军棘门;以河内守亚夫为将军,军细柳:以备胡。这一段主要围绕“大入边”之“大”来构建段落。整段文字看似与“大”无关,实则处处围绕“大”字做文章。写汉文帝三封将军“以备胡”,这是从内容上写胡人“入边”之“大”:边关吃紧,战势严峻。为了达到内容与形式的珠联璧合,司马迁在言语上连用三个“以……为……”的排比句式,以排山倒海的“声”势从言语上体现了“大”,以此增强文章的气势,形成一种“山雨欲来风满楼”的危急感。不仅如此,司马迁甚是在意言语细节。在连用三个“以……为……”时,打破言语的惯性,突然在第二个“以……为……”中省略了“以”字,这看似唐突,实则其心可鉴,省略第二个“以”字后,“以宗正刘礼为将军,军霸上;祝兹侯徐厉为将军,军棘门”不仅在视觉上间隔缩短,而且在朗读时彼此节奏加紧,联系更加紧密,军情更显危急,胡人“入边”之形势就显得更“大”了。而且,三个“以……为……”;“……为……”;“以……为……”之间张弛有度,一紧一松,营造了语势上的跌宕起伏,极具音韵之美。
