Therefore, the teacher is supposed to use pictures and film excerpt to arouse Ss’ curiosity about the cruse and the mummy. Then, to emphasize the importance of the reading strategy of this unit, and actually because that Ss are intended to become better and more active readers, it would be a good idea to make a copmparison: prediction from title and from the first paragraph. After that, Ss can draw a conclusion that which one is the fast and suitable way topredict in advance and it’s essential for them to have such a good reading habit in the further study. Only with this feature can we grasp general idea in the smallest amount of time. In terms of reading contents, Ss need to get prepared for the detailed reading.

LiberalArtsGuidance2021年02月（总第400期）文理导航No.02,2021Serial No.400■文科指导/英语人物传记类高中英语阅读教学的课例探究———以“The curse of the mummy ”为例叶彩琴(太仓市明德高级中学,江苏苏州215400)【摘要】牛津高中英语阅读材料中有不同体裁的文章，其中有很多人物传记类文章，本文将结合课例探讨如何进行人物传记类高中英语阅读课的教学。

让学生通过对历史人物的学习，提高自身精神品质，形成正确人生观。

【关键词】人物传记；阅读教学；课例探究普通高中英语课程标准(2017版)建议教师在研读语篇时,应该首先尝试回答三个问题:第一,语篇的主题和内容是什么?第二,语篇的深层含义是什么?第三,语篇具有什么样的文体特征,内容结构和语言特点?文本的题材往往会告知读者文本的内容以及作者的情感态度,而把握文本体裁,就可以理清文章的脉络,更好的掌握作者是如何写的。

因此为了促进有效阅读,学生需要正确掌握文本体裁。

人物传记是高中英语常见的文章类型。

人物传记是人物或人物资料的有效记录形式,对历史和时代的变迁等方面的研究具有重要意义。

它是通过对典型人物的生平、生活、精神等领域进行系统描述、介绍的一种文学作品形式,也是对人物特征和深层精神的表达和反映。

笔者将结合牛津高中英语模块二第三单元Reading The curse of the mummy ,探究如何进行人物传记类高中英语阅读教学。

一、情境导入教师可以利用时长三分钟的关于图坦卡蒙的视频片断,给学生以视觉和听觉的刺激,引起他们想进入图坦卡蒙的墓中探索的好奇心,营造生动的课堂情境,激发学生对课文的阅读兴趣。

二、文本处理(一)渗透快速阅读传记类文本策略教师先让学生找出文章标题的两个关键词“curse ”和“mummy ”并理解其含义,由标题先推测文章内容。

接着要求学生阅读课文第一段,找出段落大意,并划出所有形容词,对文章内容进行再次猜测。
