But most of us have seen wars in the movies. Now who will tell us your feeling towards war?S1: Have you ever seen the movie Saving Private Ryan? It is a World War II movie directed by Steven Spielberg. It’s three hours of brutal carnage and exhausted emotions. The message is clear: War is bad. Captain Miller, a stoic enigma to his men, who received some unusual orders from the top. He and his company are to rescue Private James Ryan, who has yet to learn that his three only brothers have all been recently killed in action. He is to be found and brought home alive to his grieving mother.As the men make their way through treacherous enemy territory, risking life and limb, the inevitable question arises: Is one man worth it? Furthermore, don't we all have mothers who will grieve? More pain, loss, blood and tears, which in wartime flows ceaselessly. It is a heavy, heavy movie.S2: If the movie Saving Private Ryan didn’t thoroughly convince you that war is hell, Enemy at the Gates should complete the job. In the winter of 1942, the German and Russian Armies meet in the great Battle of the Stalingrad, one of the most vicious engagements of the Second World War.Enter into this horror a young Russian soldier, formerly a peasant boy with an extraordinary ability to sharpshoot a rifle from far distances. The Russian sniper soon gains fame after killinga record number of German officers causing the Germans to bring in their own sniper expert: awar weathered Major who always accomplishes his mission no matter what the cost is. With the Battle of Stalingrad raging around them, these two men must now fight each other. Killing and bleeding are what war means.T: Last century included two global conflicts, World War I and World War II, and climaxed with the invention of a weapon that killed hundreds of thousands of people, and eventually had the potential to destroy the earth itself.The world has come to accept the recklessness of World War. Today there are organizations such as the United Nations to help keep peace, and instantaneous communication allows people to understand what is happening throughout the world. We are unlikely to experience a global conflict in our time, but it is important to understand how close the world came to ruin, and how the forces of the past century influence our lives. Ok in this class we are going to learn War Memories.Before we learn the four extracts, let’s do a quiz first.Step II Before you startDeal with Before you start.Show the photos of wars on the PowerPoint. Ask students to tell the suffering the wars brought. Then students are asked to work in pairs and do the quiz on Page 103. Then they will work ingroups and discuss why wars start. Before discussing, they should think about the Key Words in Ex 2....Step III Reading StrategiesRead to learnBefore dealing with reading, ask students to read the reading strategies individually and Teachers explains the strategies to students.T: In this class we are going to learn Lesson 3 War Memories, which include four passages. Before reading the text, let’s learn the reading strategies: Reading under pr essure. Please read the strategies aloud.After learning the reading strategies, ask students to skim the text and do Ex 4-6. Remind students that they have only 20 minutes to do the exercises.Step IV ReadingDeal with Ex 4.Ask students to work individually, skim the four passages and using the strategies to match the titles with the extracts. Remind students there is one extra title that they do not need. Four minutes later check the answers with the whole class.Deal with Ex 5.Ask students to read the text carefully and complete the gaps in Text B with the given sentences. Students should work individually. Remind students there is one extra sentence that they do not need. Students are given four minutes to complete the gaps. Four minutes later check the answers with the whole class.Deal with Ex 6.Students are given 10 minutes to read the extracts carefully and then choose the best alternative to complete each sentence, a, b, c or d. Students should work individually. After checking the answers, ask students to read the sentences together. Show the sentences on the PowerPoint so that they can have a better understanding of the extracts. Then ask students to sum up the sentences to describe the wars.T: Now work in groups and summarize the extracts.Six minutes later, ask students to present the summaries of the four extracts.SummaryA: American soldiers ordered all of the villagers to sit in the square and shoot them. Chuc survivedbecause he was wounded in the leg and almost unconscious, but he was covered by a pile of dead bodies and thus saved.B: The troops got together on Christmas Day because they were tired of the war.C: A young soldier who had both his legs blown off happened to be number twenty thousand to come through the hospital. He was going to get an award. When the general handed him the watch, he refused, because the watch couldn’t help him walk. And he cried.D: We could do nothing to help when we saw a plane with five on fire. Because there was danger of an explosion with bombs and petrol.Step V ExplanationDuring this procedure Teacher will play the tape for students. Students will underline the difficult sentences. After listening to the tape, Teacher will explain the text and deal with language problems. T: Now we will deal with some difficult language focuses. Now I will play the tape for you. Please make marks where you have difficulties.After listening to the tape, explain the difficult sentences to students. Before explaining the difficult points, students are asked to refer to the notes to the text on Page 115-116.T: Do you have any difficulty in the text?S1: Could you please explain the sentence in Extract C line 3 “This really turned me off to begin with …”?T: I think the third sentence in Ex 6 will help you understan d the sentence. Let’s read the sentence together. “The nurse wasn’t enthusiastic about the award ceremony from the start because she didn’t like her boss’s attitude toward the VIPs.” (Show the following on the PowerPoint)turn sb off: cause sb to be bored or disgusted by sth.It really turns me off when Richard wears his smelly socks to bed.You could see him turn off as the speaker droned on.The radio turned me off, so I turned it off.That song really turns me off.The play turned the audience off.Any other question?S2: In Extract C line 6 “This patient still had fresh scars from his first visit to us and this time he’d had both his legs blown off —he was all of about twenty years old.” Could you explain it to us? T: From the text we learn that the soldier was very young — probably more than 20 years old. But this was his second time to be sent to the hospital. It was not long before he was sent to hospitalagain, for his scars were still fresh. But this time he lost both his legs. That was why he refused the award. He needed his legs to walk. He was very sad to have lost his legs in the war. Wars have left thousands of people disabled. I hope all of governors can realize this and they can resolve the conflict in a peaceful way. Any other questions?Ss: No.T: Ok, so much for the text. Today’s homework is to find more about wars so that you can understand the sentence “Wars are fought for many different reasons. Some are fought for the good of mankind. Others are the result of man’s greed and prejudices.” Some one say the cause was the same as every other war; greed. The lies, excuses, & justifications, are still around today.And the same will be true of the next war, and the one after that, and so infinitude. Which opinion are you for and give your supporting reasons.Step VI Homework1. Get prepared for Ex 8 on Page 25. Find enough information on wars from the library or on the Internet.2. Finish exercises in Remember on Page 71.。

高中英语真题:Unit23 ConflictⅠ.阅读理解AFor anyone who is determined to be a fashion designer，it is not enough to have succeeded in college.The real test is whether they can survive，and become established during their early 20s，making a name for themselves in the real world where busine ss skills can be as important as talent and creativity.Fashion is a hard business.There is a continuous amount of s tress because work is at a constant and extremely fast speed to prepare for the next season’s collections.It is extremely co mpetitive and there is the constant need to make attractive ad vertisements of the latest fashion in newspapers and magazin es.It also requires continual freshness because the appetite fo r new ideas is hard to satisfy.“We try to warn people before th ey come to us about how tough it is.” says Lydia Kemeny，Head of Fashion at St.Martin’s School of Art in .“And we point out that drive and determination are absolutely necessary.”This may seem far removed from the popular opinions of fashionable young people spending their time designing pretty dre sses.That may well be what they do in their first year of study but a good college won’t be slow in introducing students to co mmercial realities，“We don’t walk our foot on the blossoming flower of creativity but in the second year we start introducing the restrictions of price，producing ability，marketing and so on.”Almost all fashion design is done to a brief.It is not a form of s elfexpression as such，although there is certainly room for imagination and creativity. Most young designers are going to end up as employees of a producer or a fashion house and they still need to be able to work within the characteristic style of their employer.Even tho se students who are most modern in their own taste of clothes may need to adapt to produce designs which are right for the mainstream of the market.They also have to be able to work a t both the expensive and the cheap end of the market and the challenge to produce good design inexpensively may well be demanding.【语篇解读】成为时尚设计师并不是件容易的事。
