It is larger than the USA and reaches nearly a quarter of the way round the earth. The distance from east to west is over 5,500 kilometers and the country covers six of the world’s 24 time zones. However, its population, about 33.8 million, is only about one-fifth of Russia’s. Nearly 90% of Canadians live within 200 km of the border with the United States, which means that Canada contains vast expanses(宽阔的区域) of wilderness to the north. Canada’s native peoples make up less than two percent of the population.The weather is different from area to area. In the north, the winters are long and hard, with snow for six months of the year. The temperature can fall to 60℃(centigrade ['sentɪgreɪd]) below zero, and in summer 21℃. The west coast of Canada is the warmest place in winter. The average January temperature is 3℃, and in July it is 18℃. Here it rains a lot every month of the year. Plants grow well all the year round and the parks and gardens are famous for their flowers.Canada has one third of the worl d’s supply of fresh water. There are five great lakes in the south, and there are many others, especially in the north. Most of the electricity is produced by water. The country has a great deal of coal, oil and natural gas, and these are all exploited([ɪk'splɒɪt; ek-]开发) for energy.Much of the country is covered by forests, and wood is cut and sold all over the world. Canada is also the world’s biggest producer of the kind of paper that is used for newspapers. Fishing is also very important for Canadians. Fish from the east and west coasts is sold to many other countries.Reading: A trip on “The True North”Leaning aims1. to get the main idea of each paragraph by scanning;2. to make judgments about details by careful reading;3. to summarize the passage.Step I Scan the passage and finish Task 1 and Task 2.Task I Find the main idea of each paragraph( ) Para 1 A. the train went southward to Toronto.( ) Para 2 B.

Unit5 Reading 名师教学设计（一）基于阅读圈的英语核心素养的培养教学设计一、设计理念1.阅读圈是我校英语组的正在进行的省级研究课题，试图采用一种新型的阅读教学模式，改变课堂生态，让学生成为阅读体验的主体。

在阅读中，学生被分为为若干个小组（circles）每个成员又被赋予各自的角色任务，在各自的阅读完成之后进行小组讨论、分享、团体评价2.文本解读多元化，培养学生多角度解读文本，读透具体信息所承载的深层含义，让学生不仅会获取信息还会处理和分析所获得的信息。

二、教材内容分析本节课的内容是人民教育出版社出版的NSE高中教材选修3第五单元，本单元话题为“加拿大”，通过两位女孩李黛玉与刘茜的加拿大之旅，向我们展示了加拿大的一些基本概况，包括它的地理位置、主要城市、风土人情以及它的多元文化。

通过学习本单元，让学生对加拿大有更多的了解，使学生能够用所学的词汇与句式表达方向与位置，并学会条理地写出旅游过程中的所见所闻。

本单元阅读部分是一篇游记“在旅途中看加拿大”，两位女孩李黛玉与刘茜沿着从西向东的旅游路线向我们介绍了加拿大的面积、地貌、主要城市、人口、生态环境等。

她们在旅途中看到了自然美景及野生动物，文章还介绍了加拿大的自然资源，让学生对加拿大的美丽、富饶、幅员辽阔、地广人稀有更深的了解。

学生可以通过学习课文掌握新的词汇、句型和游记的写法，提高学生的阅读能力。

教师在充分利用教材资源的基础上，结合学生的实际情况设计阅读圈的教学策略，帮助学生有效地掌握阅读技能，形成有效的学习方法和阅读策略。

本课教学的重点在于如何在课堂中运用阅读圈的阅读策略让学生快乐轻松地学习加拿大的文化，进而延伸到日常生活中如何运用所学知识描写游记。

三、教学目标（语言能力；思维品质；文化意识；学习能力）一、语言能力：1. 在文本阅读中学生会根据语篇理解新出现的句型以及重点词汇和短语，如rather than, baggage, scenery, eastward, surround, harbor, measure, aboard, have a gift for, manage to do, catch sight of的意思等。
