1、Unit 5 The power of nature第一部分教学设计说明About the topic and the structures单元话题和结构本单元的话题是The power of nature/ 自然的力量，介绍了火山、飓风，以及天池等自然现象。火山爆发是一种很严重的自然灾害，它常常伴有地震。火山可以分为死火山和活火山，一段时间内没有喷发的活火山叫做睡火山（休眠火山）。另外还有一种泥火山，它在科学上严格来说不属于火山，但是许多社会大众也把它看作是火山的一种类型。单元句法项目是“-ing form/ 动词-ing形式”。教学设计在单元课时划分上与课本保持一致，即“阅读课、知识课、运

2、用课三课时/三课型划分”。但在实际教学过程中，我们建议教师依据学生基础、教学条件、学校安排的因素，对课本、对教学设计重新划分课时、裁剪、拼接使用我们提供的材料，以便“物尽所用”，达到最佳教学效果。教师也可以参照我们提出的“实际教学过程课时划分建议”进行教学。Period 1Reading 阅读课Warming Up 部分教师可以选择“用词表编短文”、“分享知识”和“了解火山”形式激发背景知识、为其后的阅读作好词语、结构和心理的准备。教师可补充：火山喷发会对人类造成危害，但是它也带来了许多好处。许多宝石都是由于火山喷发形成的；火山喷发也能扩大陆地的面积，夏威夷群岛就是由火山喷发而形成的。 Pre

3、-reading向学生介绍有关“火山学”的知识，为其后的阅读做心理的铺垫和准备。Reading是篇记叙文，记叙了作者，一位火山学家经历地震、火山爆发，以及奋不顾身从事相关研究的激动人心、扣人心弦的事迹。教师可以引导学生从形式入手阅读本文，划出短语，寻找记叙文6要素，完成树型图，复述课文。Period 2Learning about language 知识课Learning about language和课本一样也分两部分：词法和句法。朗读导入后，安排学生做词汇题；再学习单元句法项目；最后是检测题。Period 3Using language运用课Using language首先引导学生听读课文

4、录音；然后是听一段有关火山学家的工作介绍；接下来的口语活动围绕“恐惧、焦虑、沮丧”展开；从形式入手阅读短文；引导学生写一则“长白山”的介绍性文字；最后改写39页的课文。实际教学过程课时划分建议Period 1将Warming Up、 Pre-reading、Reading和Comprehending整合在一起上一节“阅读课”。Period 2将Learning about language 和Workbook中的 USING WORDS AND EXPRESSIONS、USING STRUCTURES 整合在一起上一节“语言知识课”。Period 3将Using language 设计为一节包

5、括听说读写单项技能或组合技能训练的“综合技能课（一）”。Period 4将Workbook 的READING AND LISTENING和TALKING整合在一起上一节“听说课”。Period 5将Workbook 的LISTENING TASK、READING AND WRITING TASK和 SPEAKING TASK整合为一节“综合技能课（二）”。第二部分教学资源说明Section 1Background 背景围绕单元话题“自然的力量”我们提供了若干实用性背景材料。这些材料既可以作为教师教学参考材料为教师所用，也可以直接或改写、重组后作为课堂内外的拓展性阅读材料呈现给学生。Sectio

6、n 2Explanation解析重点针对“阅读课型”中的课文难句，我们提供了详尽的，就句论句的解析和翻译，并且以解析的焦点话题为线索，进行了一定的归纳、辨析和总结，以帮助教师更好地实施“语言形式”的教学。Section 3Vocabulary词汇按照课本单元词汇表顺序，我们重点提供动词、短语搭配的讲解。所提供的例句，经典、地道、实用、易懂，完全可以直接用于教学。第三部分教学测评说明围绕单元词法、句法项目，我们提供了长短不一的“单元教学测评”，并备有参考答案供教师使用。有些测评题目直接源于历年高考试卷，更具有说服力和实用性。Part 1 Teaching design第一部分 教学设计Perio
