Unit2TheOlympicGamesI．教学内容分析本单元的中心话题是“奥运会”。WarmingUp部分通过讨论让学生了解古代和现代奥运会的异同。Pre-reading部分的三个问题则进一步考查学生对奥运会基本常识的了解。Reading部分作者通过一个虚拟的采访向读者介绍了古代奥运会与现代奥运会的异同。Comprehending部分帮助学生归纳他们已知的和刚学到的关于古代与现代奥运会异同，并且进一步讨论奥运会相关知识。LearningaboutLanguage部分都同单元主题紧密相关，词汇和语法结构的呈现也尽可能地安排在相关的语境中。UsingLanguage部分通过一个希腊神话故事来引导学生进行读、听、说、写的综合训练。LearningTip部分鼓励学生在两人活动和小组活动中积极发言，这样既可以消除害羞的心理，又有利于学生掌握恰当的交际策略。II．教学重点和难点1．教学重点(1)本单元的生词和短语；(2)学会使用将来时的被动语态；(3)让学生熟悉奥运会—世界上最重要的体育盛会；能用英语就奥运会的基本知识进行互相问答，并能简述奥运会的基本知识；(4)鼓励学生表达自己的兴趣爱好，要多让学生讲自己熟悉的话题。2．教学难点(1)指导学生按类别归纳整理词汇，让学生学会有效的记忆词汇的方法；(2)引导学生发现本单元重点语言结构，让学生自己发现并感悟相关的语言规律，培养他们的语感。III．教学计划本单元分六课时：第一、二课时：Warmingup，Pre-reading,Reading,Comprehension第三课时：LearningaboutLanguage第四课时：Reading,Writing(UsingLanguage)第五课时：Listening,Speaking,Writing(UsingLanguage)第六课时：Youcanuseitfreely.IV．教学步骤：Period1WarmingUp,Pre-reading,TeachingGoals:1.ToarouseSs’interestinlearningaboutthehistoryoftheOlympics.2.ToreadaninterviewabouttheOlympics.TeachingProcedures:Step1.Leading-inPurpose:ToactivateSsandarousethemtotalkaboutmascotsintheOlympicGames.Showthepicturesaboutthe2008Olympicmascots(吉祥物).AskSswhethertheyknowsomeothermascots(吉祥物).Step2.WarmingUpPurpose:ToleadSstothetopicofthisunitthroughaquiz.Pairwork:GetSstotalkaboutthequestionsbelow,andthenaskthemtopresentitbeforetheclass.1.WhenandwheredidtheancientOlympicGamesstart?A.776BC;OlympiaB.393BC;RomeC.1896;Greece2.WhendidtheancientOlympicsstop?A.776BCB.393BCC.1888AD3.WhenandwheredidthemodernOlympicGamesstart?A.1888AD;PairsB.776BC;OlympiaC.1896;Athens4.WhendidChinafirsttakepartintheOlympics?A.1932B.1928C.19365.WhowasChina’sfirstgoldmedalwinnerandforwhatevent?A.ZhouJihong;divingB.Lining;gymnasticsC.XuHaifeng;shooting6.DoyouknowthethreewordsthatshowthespiritoftheOlympicGames?A.taller,faster,strongerB.higher,swifter,strongerC.stronger,quicker,longerSuggestedAnswers:1.A2.B3.C4.A5.C6.BStep3.Pre-readingPurpose:TohaveSslearnaboutsomemoreaboutOlympicsandarousetheirinterest.Individualwork:GetSstoanswerthisquestionindividually.1.HowmanyeventsaretherefortheSummerandWinterOlympics?Canyoulistsomeofthem?2.WhenandwherewillthenextOlympicsbeheld?WhatdoyouthinktheChineseteamwilldoinordertowinmoremedals?SuggestedAnswers:1.IntheSummerOlympics,therearerunning,swimming,shooting,wrestling,jumping,football,basketball,volleyball,tabletennis,throwing.Javelin,weightlifting,gymnastics,boxing,etc.IntheWinterOlympics,thereareskiing,skating,icehockey,skijumping,sledding,snow-boarding,etc.2.The29thOlympicswillbeheldinBeijingonAugust18th,2008.Period2ReadingandcomprehensionTeachingaims:1.Tocatchthemainideaofthetext.2.Tounderstandsomeusefullwordsandexpressio.3.Toimprovethestudentslisteningandreadingability.TeachingprocessStep1.ListeningPurpose:Togetabriefunderstandingofthetext.TotrainSs’listeningability.(1)Listentothetape.(2)AskSstofindthewritingtypeandthemainideaofthetext.Thewritingtype:conversationalstyle(aninterview).Mainidea:comparingthedifferencesbetweenAncientandModernOlympics.Step2.ScanningPurpose:TogetSstohavesomedetailsinthetext.Readthetextquicklyandfindoutthesimilarities&differencesbetweenAncientandModernOlympics.(1)Whatarethesimilarities?HowoftenBothareheldeveryfouryears.WhatforBothareheldnotformoneybutforhonor.BeliefsTheyarethesame.Swifter,Higher,andStronger.CompetitorsMenareallowedtotakepartbothinancientandmodernOlympics.EventsSomeeventsarethesame,suchasrunning,jumping,shooting,andthrowing.(2)Whatarethedifferences?AncientModernGamesSummerSummer&winterCountryOnlyGreeceCountriesfromallovertheworldCompetitorsOnlymenMenandwomenPrizeOlivewreathMedalEventsAfewManymoreStep3.ReadthepassagecarefullyandsilentlyandfinishEx2(P11).SuggestedAnswers:(1)PausaniasisamazedthatmanycountriestakepartintheOlympicGamesandwomentooandtherearetwosetsofGames-theWinterandtheSummerOlympics.(2)BecauseLiYanhasexplainedthatitisagreathonortohosttheOlympicGames..(3)HethinksthatsomanythingshavechangedintheOlympicGamesthathefearsthatthespiritoftheOlympicsmayhavechangedtoo.Step4．DiscussionYouknowourgovernmenthastrieditsbesttocompeteforhostingthe29thOlympicGames.Ithascostalotofmoney.Doyouthinkitisworthwhile?Why?Foryourreference:ItisworthwhiletohosttheOlympicGames.TohostOlympicGamescanmakeourcultureandpeopleunderstoodbytheotherpeoples.TohostOlympicGamescanmakeourcountryknowntothewholeworld.TohostOlympicGamescanstimulateoureconomy,andhelptospeedupitsdevelopment.Step5.ImaginationImaginewhatwewilldoandwhatwecandoforthe29thOlympicGames.Foryourreference:Maybewecanserveasvolunteerstohelptheforeignvisitorsandathletesfromallovertheworld.Soatpresentweshouldstudyhard.EspeciallyweshouldtryourbesttolearnEnglishwell.Step6.SummaryAswehavefinishedthepassagewe’llsumupwhatwehavelearned.Firstlet’sseethewritingskills.Itiswritteninaconversationalstyle.It’sinaveryinterestingway.ItadoptsadialoguebetweenPausaniaswholived2000yearsagoandaChinesegirdinmodernworld.Throughtheirdialogue,thedifferencesandsimilaritiesbetweentheancientandmodernOlympicGamesaremadeknowntothereaders.Justbecauseitisinaconversationalstyle,therearequiteafeworalspokenEnglishandellipticalphrase
