Unit 4 Earthquakes

— Warming up & Reading教学设计

一、教学内容简析：

本课的内容是人教版高中英语必修1 Unit 4 Earthquakes 中的Reading 阅读理解部分，包括Warming up, Pre-reading, 阅读理解课文A Night the Earth Didn’t Sleep和Comprehending 内容在内。Warming

up部分提供了唐山地震和美国旧金山地震的两幅图片，要求学生描述地震对这两个城市造成的危害并展开讨论。Pre-reading部分提供了地震前兆的图片，让学生了解地震前动物和自然界奇特的异常变化。阅读课文A Night the Earth Didn’t Sleep是一篇新闻报道类记叙文，叙述了唐山大地震前夕的“怪现象”、地震造成的损失及震后的救援情况。Comprehending 部分设置了些练习，主要是帮助学生更好地理解课文内容，培养学生整体把握文章的能力。

二、学习者分析

本单元的话题是“地震基础知识（basic knowledge about earthquakes）”和“遇到灾难时如何自救以及帮助他人（how to protect

oneself and help others in disaster）”。具体涉及地震的成因、预兆、地震造成的损失、地震时的应急救生以及震后的救援等内容，对于高一学生来说要完成这些内容的学习也并非是一件易事。目前，学生上 2 课以interpersonal的交流为主，而interpretative和presentational形式比重不够均衡。由于文化教学不够重视，学生的跨文化意识不高。此外，学生跨学科学习的意识不够，语言和信息的双向促进关系的认识不足。对于比较策略主要运用在英汉汉英互译的语言层面，未进入文化比较和思维比较。学生的课外语言活动环境不够丰富和重视程度不高，通常以词汇、语法等练习为主，缺乏真实的语言运用。
