Unit 11
Sad movies make me cry.
本单元围绕情感的话题，通过学习让学生能够表达自己的感受。Section A通过谈论不同事物对情绪的影响，要求学生学习与情感有关的词汇，并通过听说读写逐步掌握make作使役动词的语言结构，学习掌握表达情绪和感受的形容词和动词，学习make＋sb.＋do sth.和
make＋sb.＋adj.的结构并能够正确运用这些结构表达人的情绪等相关内容。教学重点一是要帮助学生建立使役动词(make，let，have)之后要跟省略to的动词不定式的意识；二是在make ＋sb.＋adj.这个结构中，学生要理解这里的adj.有两种形式——形容词和动词过去分词充当的形容词。学生容易受汉语的影响出错，要帮助学生分析原因，在不断纠正中形成相关的语言意识，正确运用这一结构，做到熟能生巧。Section B是Section A内容的继续和延伸。在话题上，从事物对人情感产生影响的简单叙述，转向描述人们对某种情感所持有的观念；在语言上，除了进一步综合训练和掌握单元语言内容外，正确、得体地运用相关形容词描绘情感，表达情感变化是本部分的重点；在语言技能上，由简单技能训练转向侧重听说读写的综合性训练。Section B有两个重点：一是让学生形成梳理、寻找并积累成语或习语的意识和习惯；二是要求学生能够根据阅读课文的逻辑框架描写自己的个人经历。学生要学会按一定的逻辑结构去写，注意这个结构中的各个环节的衔接和写作内容的完整一致，要充分利用阅读课文的示范性作用，模仿练习。
