AThe Five Best Countries TO Move To For Retirement Retiring in a different country is gaming popularity. Below are five of the best countries to seek retirement.Costa RicaMild climate, breathtaking landscapes and beaches draw retirees(退休人员)to Costa Rica. The country readily welcomes immigrants and offers a simple residency process. With a monthly income of at least $ 1,000 per month from Social Security or a similar source, people enjoy a high standard of living at a much lower cost than the U. S. MalaysiaRetirees who choose to make Malaysia home will appreciate its rich culture and attractive scenery. Moreover, the country offers modern facilities at modest prices. Immigrants enjoy convenience and comfort in their daily life. You will find low-cost rental units, delicious street food, and various shopping malls.MexicoBecause it’s close to the U.S., Mexico draws more than a million American retirees to its borders. Increasing immigrant communities enjoy seaside living andconversations with friendly. English speaking locals. Plus, legal residents over the age of 60 receive airline, grocery, and restaurant discounts.PanamaGentle ocean wind takes the heat out of hot year-round temperatures, which has been the chief attraction to foreign retirees. Beautiful beaches and a booming economy also attract retirees to Panama. An income of $2,000 per month covers modest living costs. Furthermore, the country offers discounts to retirees with a special visa. EcuadorLazy coastal towns, sun-shining hot spots, and nature-filled views wait for immigrants seeking a carefree lifestyle. Public transportation costs in Ecuador make owning a vehicle unnecessary. A bus ride only costs 25 cents and taxi rides will run about $3.1. What do Costa Rica and Malaysia have in common?A. Convenient shoppingB. Relatively low living costC. Various cultural activitiesD. Simple immigration procedures2. Which country’s location specially attracts retirees from the U. S.?A. Malaysia’s B .Mexico’s c. Panama’s D. Ecuador’s3. What is the main reason for retirees to choose Panama?A. Beautiful beachesB. A booming economyC .A pleasant climate D. Discounts for retireesBSummertime has always been my absolute favorite time of the year. When I was in school, I just lived for the long summer holidays when I could play with my friend and my sister all day at our ease. Everyone has different associations of, summer. For some, they think of the smell of freshly cut grass, for others it's lying on a beach reading a book and for some it might be the taste of lemonade or ice cream.I am so happy to be spending this summer with my family and childhood friends here in the Highlands of Scotland after a year away in France.One of my favorite things to do in summer is go to see the Highland. These events happen all across the Highlands and Islands of Scotland over the summer and are a great chance for friends and family to get together and support the local community.A Highland Games event is a big gathering with food stalls(小摊), fair games for children and sports and athleties competitions. Many of the sports are very specific to Scottish tradition such as “tossing caber". This is a competition in which the competitors attempt to lift a full-length tree log and to toss it up in the air. The oldest Highland Games of Scotland date back, to AD 1344 and they are now an iconic part of the Scottish summer.Summer just would not be complete for me without my favorite fruit-strawberries Here in the Highlands, strawberries are grown as one of our best-sellers over the summer months and one thing I love to do on a warm summer afternoon is to pick some strawberries to eat, with cream at the end of the day. If you come here, I think you will fall in love with them..4. Why did the author treasured summertime as a child?A It was along hot holiday for him. B. He could see his brother every dayC. He was able to feel quite relaxed.D. It was the best time to live a life5. What can we learn according to the first paragraph?A. The author was born and raised in France.B. The author spent one year out of his countryC. The author moved to Scotland with his familyD. The author devoted much time to reading books.6. What will you see at a Highland Games event?A. People giving a hand to those in needB. Kinds of delicious food and happy childrenC. A cultural display of Scottish traditionD. Some extreme sports competitions.7. Why does the author refer to strawberries?A. To show he only takes interest in this fruit.B. To prove Highlands is best for summerC. To attract readers to buy strawberriesD. To suggest strawberries are the best for you. .CStudents should be able to show what they know. Many folks take this as a self-evident truth. But I think it demands closer examination.Possessing a skill or piece of knowledge is not the same thing as being able to show it. This is why many smart young people hate school. Understanding, figuring out, and getting a handle on a piece of knowledge are really exciting, but having to prove to somebody else that you understand is a big fat pain in the neck.Finding proof of student learning is a huge part of the teacher's job, and whether it is done poorly or not makes all the difference in that teacher's effectiveness. There is a huge difference between "How do I figure out if this student understands" and "How do I make this student prove to me he gets it." The first is a valuable approach; the second is the first step on the road toward wasting everybody's time.And the re’s the problem. If we start with the assumption that a student who knows must be able to show his knowledge to our satisfaction, we will be traveling down the wrong road. The more we demand that students prove to us that they know the stuff, the more we will design artificial tasks that demand a set of skills and knowledge entirely different from the skills and knowledge we really want to measure.As a classroom teacher, I have to remember that the burden is on me to find a way to see what my students know; the burden is not on them to put on whatever trained monkey show I design for my own ease and convenience.It may not be the worst thing ever to say "Students should be able to show what they know." But I think it's far more useful to say, "Teachers should be able to discover what students know”.8.What does the underlined phrase in the second paragraph mean?A. Very dangerous.B. Very annoying. C Very difficult. D Vary frequent.9. According to the third paragraph, a teacher should have the ability to_______________A. discover whether his students knowB. avoid wasting the precious time in classC. apply various approaches while teachingD. give students the chance to prove themselves10. What does the author think of the artificial tasks designed to test students' learning?A. They should be limited in number.B. They are a huge burden on teachersC. They should mainly focus on effectiveness.D. They slide away from their original purpose11. What is the main idea of the passage?A. Students should be able to show what they know.B. There are many ways to find proof of student leaning.C. Teachers should be able to discover what students knowD. There should be better understanding between teachers and studentDA new keyboard can tell whether you are its owner. The keyboard records information about the typing pattern and sends it to a computer program. The program then checks to see if the pattern matches the night user. If not, an alarm sounds, and the computer locks the typist out. It locks out anyone else, even if the person knows password. Wh at’s more, this device needs no batteries. It harvests all the energy it needs from the action of your typing. Besides, the keyboard is also self-cleaning and the keys are free of damage from water, oil and dirt.The keys of the new keyboard are made of the same inexpensive plastic that might be found on any other standard keyboard. But instead of being smooth, the keys have millions of tiny plastic nanowires(纳米线) on their surface area to every key, increasing the effective contact area between the plastics and fingers. This ensures that there's enough power to run the keyboard as someone types.Liming Dai, a scientist, did not work on the new keyboard, but he thinks the design could be important in getting better performance from a variety of devices. "It couldalso be applied to a touch screen, for instance, "Dai says. "Then smart phones and notepads could harvest energy from the action of someone typing or drawing.”"Future work might make the keyboard even more useful, "Dai adds. "A later design might build tiny capacitors (电容器)onto the nanowires, " he suggests Capacitors are little deices that temporarily store electric charges. Those might then LEDS to light a Keyboard in the dark.Zhonglin Wang is a co-designer of the new keyboard. His team has built a working model of the keyboard. "If a company decides to fund(投资) its production, this keyboard could be in stores in as little as two years, "says Wang.12. How does the new keyboard tell whether you are its owner?A. By matching the typing pattern to the right userB. By sending alarms to a computer programC. By checking the right user’s passwords.D. By recording information about the typing pattern13. Why are there many nanowires on the surface of the keys?A. To increase the effective contact areaB. To improve the speed of typingC. To make the keys smooth.D To help produce power14. what's Dai's attitude to the new keyboard?A Unconcerned.B Doubtful.C Positive.D Critical15. What is the best title for the text?A.

His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be farmer. He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract people’s interest, but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said five cents each. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store., selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly form the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada, and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “The customer is always right.”36. Frank took a short business course in order to ____________.A. earn more money for his familyB. learn something from a salesmanC. get away from the farmD. get enough to eat.37. The price of the knives was cut down by half because ______________.A. the factory workers worked 24 hours a day.B. knives were ordered in large quantities directly from the factory.C. the knives were made in Germany, where labour (劳动力) was cheap.D. the knives were produced in one factory.38. _____________ make Woolworth a world-famous man.A. His business skills and his wealth.B. The low price of the goods he sold.C. His trip to Germany and his huge order of knives.D. His natural skill for showing things.39. The belief that : “The customer is always right”suggests that _______________.A. whenever there is a quarrel between the customer and shop assistant, thecustomers are always right.B. If you want to succeed, the rule is the only way.C. stores must always follow the customer’s orders if they want to make moremoney.D. stores should do their best to meet the customer’s needs if they want to besuccessful.BThere are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?”by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job.40. What is the passage mainly about?A. Finding a job.B. College students’part-time jobs.C. Craigslist Web site.D. The relation between study and work.41. “What Color is Your Parachute?”is a book which gives tips to those who want to _____.A. work on the airplaneB. buy a parachuteC. publish a bookD. find a suitable job42.

Miller’s company is helping people choose careersD. California Career Services mainly serves university students43. How many ways of finding a job are mentioned in the passage?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. Six.CLanguage is always changing. In a society where life continues year after year with few changes, the language does not change either. The earliest known languages had difficult grammar but a small, limited vocabulary. Over the century, the grammar changed, and the vocabulary grew. For example, the English and Spanish people who came to America during the sixteenth century gave names to all the new plants and animals they found. In this way, hundreds of new words were introduced into English and Spanish vocabularies. Today life is changing very fast, and language is changing fast too.There are several major language families in the world. Some scientists say there are nine main families, but other scientists divide them differently. The languages in each family are connected, and scientists think that they came from the same parent language. About 3 percent of the people in the world speak languages that are not in these major families.44. The early language had ________.A. a lot of problemsB. words and easy grammarC. words but no grammarD. grammar but not many words45. In the next few hundred years we can expect language to _____.A. stay exactly the sameB. change a great dealC. change only a littleD. ask more words and drop some grammar46. What this article shows is that _____.A. languages change fastB. languages really don't want to changeC. language really with changes in societyD.

His family were very poor farmers, and there was never enough to eat. Frank decided he did not want to be farmer. He took a short business course, and went to work as a salesman in a large city.Woolworth realized he had a natural skill for showing goods to attract people’s interest, but he soon learned something more important. One day his boss told him to sell some odds and ends (小商品 ) for as much as he could get. Frank put all these things on one table with a sign which said five cents each. People fought and pushed to buy the things and the table was soon cleared.Soon afterwards, Woolworth opened his own store., selling goods at five and ten cents. But he had another lesson to learn before he became successful. That is, if you want to make money by selling low-price goods, you have to buy them in large quantities directly form the factories. Once, for example, Woolworth went to Germany and placed an order for knives. The order was so large that the factory had to keep running 24 hours a day for a whole year. In this way, the price of the knives was cut down by half.By 1919, Woolworth had over 1000 stores in the US and Canada, and opened his first store in London. He made many millions and his name became famous throughout the world. He always run his business according to strict rules, of which the most important was: “ The customer is always right.”36. Frank took a short business course in order to ____________.A. earn more money for his familyB. learn something from a salesmanC. get away from the farmD. get enough to eat.37. The price of the knives was cut down by half because ______________.A. the factory workers worked 24 hours a day.B. knives were ordered in large quantities directly from the factory.C. the knives were made in Germany, where labour (劳动力) was cheap.D. the knives were produced in one factory.38. _____________ make Woolworth a world-famous man.A. His business skills and his wealth.B. The low price of the goods he sold.C. His trip to Germany and his huge order of knives.D. His natural skill for showing things.39. The belief that : “ The customer is always right” suggests that _______________.A. whenever there is a quarrel between the customer and shop assistant, thecustomers are always right.B. If you want to succeed, the rule is the only way.C. stores must always follow the customer’s orders if they want to make moremoney.D. stores should do their best to meet the customer’s needs if they want to besuccessful.BThere are many ways to find a job. It can be as easy as walking into a neighborhood store to look at its announcement board. Local stores often have areas where people can put small signs telling what kind of service they need or can provide. Such services include caring for children or cleaning houses.Or, job searchers can look in the newspaper. Local newspapers have employment announcements placed by companies seeking workers.Another popular tool for finding jobs is the Internet. For example, people in four hundred and fifty cities around the world can use the Craigslist Web site to buy objects, meet people or find a job. Craigslist says that it receives two million new job listings each month.Another useful way to find a job is through a college or university. For example, students at the University of Texas in Austin can go to the Career Exploration Center to get help in finding a job. Of course, looking for a job requires knowing what kind of work you want to do. For example, there is a book called “What Color is Your Parachute (降落伞)?” by Richard Bolles. This book has been helping people choose a career (职业) since it was first published in nineteen seventy.Some experts also help people find jobs. Susan W. Miller owns a company called California Career Services in Los Angeles. She says her company helps people find jobs by first helping them understand their strengths, goals and interests. Then she provides them with methods and resources to help them find the right job. 40. What is the passage mainly about?A. Finding a job.B. College students’ part-time jobs.C. Craigslist Web site.D.

Miller’s company is helping people choose careersD. California Career Services mainly serves university students43. How many ways of finding a job are mentioned in the passage?A. Three.B. Four.C. Five.D. Six.CLanguage is always changing. In a society where life continues year after year with few changes, the language does not change either. The earliest known languages had difficult grammar but a small, limited vocabulary. Over the century, the grammar changed, and the vocabulary grew. For example, the English and Spanish people who came to America during the sixteenth century gave names to all the new plants and animals they found. In this way, hundreds of new words were introduced into English and Spanish vocabularies. Today life is changing very fast, and language is changing fast too.There are several major language families in the world. Some scientists say there are nine main families, but other scientists divide them differently. The languages in each family are connected, and scientists think that they came from the same parent language. About 3 percent of the people in the world speak languages that are not in these major families.44. The early language had ________.A. a lot of problemsB. words and easy grammarC. words but no grammarD. grammar but not many words45. In the next few hundred years we can expect language to _____.A. stay exactly the sameB. change a great dealC. change only a littleD. ask more words and drop some grammar46. What this article shows is that _____.A. languages change fastB. languages really don't want to changeC. language really with changes in societyD.

第４课：甲午中日战争 历史组：孙秀苹 我说课的内容是八年级上册，第一单元，第四课《甲午中日战争》一课，我从以下方面给大家介绍：1、是教材分析；2、学情分析；3、教学目标；4、设计思想；5、学法指导；6、教学流程 一、教材分析 甲午战争是中华民族历史上又一次深重的民族灾难，它给中国人民带来了前所未有的耻辱，大大加深了中国社会的半殖民地化。

它上承两次鸦片战争，但损失之惨重超过了鸦片战争以来历次外祸之总和；下启帝国主义瓜分中国的狂潮，在这以后中国更为全方位地被迫开放，并且相继受到大规模的军事侵略，是民族危机最严重的时期。

清王朝腐朽不堪、积贫积弱现象彻底暴露，亡国之祸迫在眉睫。

也正是这场战争，促成了自鸦片战争以来前所未有的民族觉醒，危机也是转机。

因此本课在教材中的地位举足轻重，让初中生深入认识甲午战争这一重大历史事件并从中吸取教训是非常必要的。

二、学情分析 1、初中二年级的学生，因为已经学习了一年多的历史，已经掌握了一定的历史知识，也具备了一定的分析能力。

因此，在课堂上，应当针对学生的特点，激发学生的积极性，让学生主动学习。

对学生的积极思维给予充分肯定，巧妙引导，从而激发学生敢想、敢说、爱说的欲望，增强学生学习的自信心。

2、可是因为刚进入初二的学生对自主学习还不大习惯，缺乏相应的主动性；另外从学生的心理角度出发，他们对新鲜的、有趣的事物有强烈的好奇心。

因此本课要提供大量的学生感兴趣的材料，从而激发学生的积极性，并养成自主学习的习惯。

三、学习目标的设计 根据初二学生的特点我设计了以下三方面的学习目标 1、知识目标：甲午中日战争的概况；《马关条约》的主要内容。

2、能力目标：通过自主学习、合作探究、多媒体教学手段感知历史，灵活思维。

学会运用所学知识综合分析问题的方法。

3、德育目标全力投入，享受学习的快乐。

增 强历史责任感，树立民族自尊心和自信心。

教学重点难点 重点： 黄海海战中邓世昌的主要事迹及《马关条约》的主要内容和影响。
