Unit 5 More Reading A letter from the school counsellor
教材分析:
高中牛津教材的每一个单元有两篇文章:Reading 和 More Reading。两篇文章往往有某种程度的关联;
Reading 篇幅较长而 More Reading 篇幅则短小精悍。本单元的两篇文章就是这样的模式:Reading—— What
should I do,以刊登在校报上的三封信件摘录为载体,以故事的形式讲述了 3 个学生遇到的不同困难和困
惑。More Reading——A letter from the school counsellor, 以顾问老师的口吻对三位学生的疑惑在一封回信中
分别进行解答,在给出建议的同时也帮助学生正确的分析问题。
学情分析
授课对象为授课老师所教的曹杨中学高一(7)班学生,老师对学生较为熟悉。经过一个多学期的高中英
语学习,学生们的词汇、语言和阅读技巧有了一定的积累,能够独立看懂文章。但要运用所学来进行表述,
还需要老师正确引导。
