Why don’t study the basic sentencepatterns3a Reading and cuttingWe are going to read the text again to study the form and function ofall the predicate verbs.How I learned to learn EnglishLast year/ my English class/ was difficult/ for me. First of all, it wasn't easy/ for me/ to understand the teacher/ when she talked to the class. To begin with, she spoke/ too quickly, and I couldn't understand every word. Later on, I realized that/ it doesn't matter/ if you don’t understand/every word. Also/ I was afraid to speak/ in class, because/ I thought/ my classmates/ might laugh at me. I couldn't always make complete sentences, either. Then/ I started to watch English-language TV. It helped/ a lot. I think that/ doing lots of listening practice/ is of the secrets of becoming a good language learner. Another thing/ that I found/ very difficult/ was English grammar. So/ I decided to take lots of grammar notes/ in every class. Then/ I started to write my own original sentences/ using the grammar/(that) I was learning. It’s amazing/ how much/ this helped. Now/ I am enjoying learning English/ and I got an A/ this term. My teacher is very impressed.Now you may read the statements in the box on page 6 following the text. Write “T” or “F” beside each statement.3b Writing a letterDear Lin Feng,I know it isn’t easy to learn English, but I have some ideas that may help. You said you couldn’t understand people who talked fast. Well, you cantry to listen for the most important words, not every word. It isdifficult to understand by listening what you have not read orwhat you can’t understand well by reading. To listen well youhave to read well. So keep on reading English. Listening andreading to the recording of the text is very important, too. Everytext, after being read, should be listened to and read aloud to the tape. At first you may find it difficult to follow the reader reading aloud the text. Don’t worry. If you keep practicing you will be able to read aloud as fast as the native reader from the tape. And then you can understand people who talk fast in English.Yours,Tai Zuo4 Doing an interviewNext we shall do an interview in groups of four. Ask the three group mates about learning English.

Unit 1 How do you study for a testThe Teaching Plan for “Unit 1 How do you study for a test?”I. Analysis of the teaching materialThe content of this lesson is adopted from Go for it Book III Unit1. The topic of this unit is about learning how to study things. By reviewing this unit, students will be able to master the key vocabulary words and sentence patterns of this unit, and they’ll be better to talk about various learning ways, problems in learning, asking for and giving advice, and comments on ways of learning. Obviously, the topic of this unit is related closely to students' actual life, so it will raise students learning interest. They have a great desire to talk about the problems they met in learning English and they wish to solve these problems. So we can provide situations for students to exchange ideas in the process of study and help them find the most suitable ways to improve their English. It will also cultivate students’ ability of using English to solve the practical problems. Besides, students will learn to regard problems as challenges and try their best to find ways to solve them.According to English syllabus, new curriculum standards and the type of the lesson---- revision, I wi ll use “English learning” as a clue to review the key voc abulary and sentence patterns. Wilkings, a great linguist once said, “Without grammar, very little can be conveyed. Without vocabulary, nothing can be conveyed.” So, in this lesson, I lay great emphasis on the review of vocabulary. As words are used in sentences, I will review the key words and phrases in the sentences or contexts. Generally speaking, I’ll review the unit from the following four parts: ways of learning, problems, advice and comments. The four parts connect to each other closely and the topics are from easy to difficult. On the other hand, the four parts involve the main sentence patterns and key vocabulary stu dents must master in this unit. By reviewing the unit like this, at the end of the lesson, students are expected to write a letter about how to learn Chinese well based on what we reviewed.II. Analysis of learning conditionThe students I’m going to teach are from Wencheng Experimental Middle School. Most of them have a strong English background. So in this period, I mainly focus on how to get students to behave actively. And as a famous Italian doctor says, “Tell me and I will forget. Show me and I understand. Involve me and I remember!” In order to help the students maste r the key language points of this unit, I design different tasks for them to do, which will greatly get them involved in the classroom activities. As a result, they will have a better understanding of the language points.III. Teaching Objectives1. Knowledge O bjectives(1) The students will be able to master the key vocabulary words of this unit byreviewing them in different ways: make flashcards, pronunciation, differently, fast, deal with, regard, make mistakes, afraid, too … to …, etc.(2) The students will be able to use the following four sentence patterns in thegiven situations or daily life:①How do you learn English? I learn English by...② Why don’t you / Why not ...?③ Maybe you should …. / You’d better …④ I think studying Engli sh by …is…because…2. Ability Objectives(1)The students will be able to talk about their learning ways, and commenton the ways of learning English as well as the problems they meet in learning English and the solutions to them.(2) The students will be able to get information from reading passage.(3) The students will be able to use the words and sentence patterns reviewedin this period to write a passage about how to learn Chinese well.3.

Teaching Methods1、Communicative approach2、Task-oriented method3、Practicing approach4、Situation-experienced methodVII. Teaching AidsMulti-media equipmentsVIII. Teaching ProceduresStep 1.Leading-in & Brain-stormingT: Class begins! Good morning, everyone!Ss: Good morning, teacher!T: Glad to meet you! Today is the first time we meet each other. Now let me introduce myself to you. I come from No. 2 Experimental Middle School. My name is Hu Haiyan. You can cal l me Miss Hu. I think we’ll have a good time together. Ok, now I’d like to know something about you. What’s your name? What’s your favorite subject? Why?S1: ….T: Do you like English? How do you study English?S2: …T: What about you? What do you think of your way?S3: …T: Hi! Nice to meet you! How long have you been learning English?S4: ….T: Well, most of you have been learning English for many years. And all of you have your own ways to learn English. Now take out the worksheet I gave you just now and fill in the mind map about the ways of English learning. Let’s see who can write t he most ways.(Ss try to write as many ways of English learning as possible.)T: O K. Are you ready? How many ways have you written? Show me your answers please. Who’d like to share your answers?(Ask two or three students to say the ways of English learning.)Design purpose: Talk with students freely can get a general idea about how well students mastered this unit and on the other hand, can help construct a relaxing learning atmosphere. The brainstorming activity can activate students’ knowledge about the ways of learning English. As a result, help them review the phrases of learning ways.Step 2. Survey & ReportT: So there’re many ways of English learnin g. And how do you learn it? What about your friends. What do you think of the ways? Please work in groups of four and make a survey about it. Fill in the chart in your worksheet.(Ss work in groups and try to fill in their charts.)T: Well, have your completed your survey chart?Ss: Yes.T: Good. Let’s make a report. Please pay attention to the sentence patterns you use. For example, when we find one way is not successful, we can say I think it’s not helpful at all. (Write “not …at all” on the blackboard.)Who’d like to give a report about it?(Let 3or 4 students give reports about their survey results.)Design purpose: This activity makes students work cooperatively and use phrases in sentences properly, which will not only review the sentence patterns, but also train students’ communicative ability. As to the students who are good at English,they can further their ability by giving reports about how their friends learn English. And the students will try to express their own attitudes toward various ways of learning in target language.Step 3. InterviewingT: You see, every one has his or her own ways of learning. And some students’ ways are really very successful. Recently there is an English Speech Contest in Wenzhou. Some students really did well in it. And the winders are asked to hold a news conference. Suppose you took part in the contest, too. Now please work in groups of four to role play it. One is the winner; the others are the reporters from different TV stations. Try to ask as many questions as you can.(After students practice for a while, invite one or two students to come to the front as a winner, and let the other students ask them questions about English learning.)Design purpose: There are two purposes for the design of the News Conference: One is to review the two sentence patterns “Do you …” and “Have you ever …” And the other is to train students’ speaking ability and activate the classroom atmosphere ---- Get every student involved in the activity.Step 4. PracticingT: Congratulations! Your spoken English is really wonderful. What about other students? It seems you’re not confident enough to come to the front. Are you good at English? Do you have any difficulties in learning English? If so, what are they?(Let some students talk about the problems they face.)T: Well, don’t worry. It’s quite common to meet problems while learning something. My students have trouble learning English, too. Here’re their problems. But some of the words are missing. Can you help me to complete the sentences? Please take out the worksheet again. And try to complete the sentences in it.(Check the answers after students finish the task and help the students to review the key words and phrases presented in the ten sentences.)Design purpose: By doing exercise, students will review the main sentence patterns about the problems students meet in learning English and the words related to this topic. And in the process of checking the answers, the teacher can remind the students of the usages of some important words and phrases.Step 5. PairworkT: Well done. You’ve got all the answers right. But here comes another problem. There are so many problems we may meet in learning English, but we still need to learn English well. How can we deal with them? How do you deal with the problems you meet in learning English? Show me your ideas.(Let different students talk about how they solve problems.)T: Good idea. I’ll tell these solutions to my students. Do you know how I usually solve my problems?Ss: No.T: Well, generally speaking, I have two ways to solve problems. First of all, I’ll deal with my problems by regarding them as challenges. And I’ll try my best to overcome the difficulties. And if I can’t solve them by myself, I’ll ask someoneelse for advice. Do you like to ask others for advice?Ss: Yes.T: Then let’s work in pairs and tell your partner your problems. I think we can solve the problems together. Do you think so?(Ss work in p airs and make conversations. After they practice for a while, invite some pairs of them to present their conversations.)Design purpose: In this activity, students are asked to ask for and give advice to each other. By doing this, students will review the sentence patterns about how to make suggestions.Step 6. ReadingT: Good job. I wish all of you will try to regard all your problems as challenges and try your best to overcome them. I really appreciate these kinds of people. My friend Tom is such a person. Let’s see what problems he met and how he solved them. Please read the passage about him in your worksheet and try to complete the chart below it.(Students read the passage individually and try to get information to fill in the chart.)T: Are you ready?Ss: Yes.(Check the answers.)T: Excellent! Your reading ability is pretty good. Now we’ve known how Tom studied English. What do you think his solutions? I think studying English by joining an English club is a good way because you can ask others when you have questions. What’s your opinion?(Let different students comment on the ways of learning English, using the sentence pattern “I think studying English by… is … because…”) Design purpose: In this part, students are supposed to get information from the reading passage quickly and to give comments on ways of learning by using the sentenc e pattern “I think studying English by … is … because ….” As to this step, students should learn to combine simple sentences to make a complex one. This will help them improve their writing ability.Step 7 WritingT: Ok. Today we talked much about English learning. Suppose you have a pen pal named Bob is coming to Wencheng soon. And he’d like to learn Chinese. As a Chinese, I believe you can give him much advice. Please write a letter to him and tell him how to learn Chinese well. You can use the key words provided in your worksheet. And here are some tips for you. Try to answer the following questions in your mind, and you’ll know what should be included in your writing.1.How long have you been learning Chinese?2.How did you learn Chinese?3.What challenges did you meet in learning Chinese?4.What’s your attitude toward the problems you met?5.How did you deal with the problems of Chinese learning6.What do you think your ways of learning Chinese?(Ss work individually to write the letter. If time is enough, I’d as k some of the students to read their letters and give comments on them.)Design purpose: The writing task is designed to see if students have already mastered all the points reviewed in this period. And it provides students a chance to output the language they learned. On the other hand, this activity helps students have a summary of what they have reviewed in this unit by answering the questions the teacher provided in sweet tips. Step 8. Emotional Education T: How t ime flies. There is not enough time for us to present your writing now. Before we end the lesson, I’d like to have a word with you. Where there is a will, there is a way. Believe yourself and work persistently, you’ll get good grades in the Entrance Examination to Senior Middle School.Design purpose: This step is to guide students to form a good attitude toward the difficulties they meet in learning procedures or daily life.Step 9. HomeworkT: Ok. Today’s homework:1. Make a vocabulary list of the key words and expressions learned in this unit.2. Finish your writing and try to improve it.3. Complete the two exercises in your Homework sheet.So much for today’s lesson. Wish you succeed every day. Goodbye, class. Ss: Goodbye, Miss Hu.IX.

UNIT 1 How do you study for a test？方法技巧1.动名词的用法同学们也许对动名词的提法并不感到陌生，但相信大家对它并没有全面而细致的了解，现在我们就一起来学学动名词吧！动名词是由v.+ing 构成的，变化规则和现在分词一样。

动名词具有名词的性质，在句中可以作主语、宾语和表语等。

同时，它又具有动词的特点，可以接宾语构成动名词短语。

动名词所作句子成分例句主语Seeing is believing.眼见为实。

宾语We all like singing.我们都喜欢唱歌。

表语Your task is cleaning the room.你的任务是打扫房间。

定语Our school has a r eading room.我们学校有一个阅览室。

教你一招：巧记只跟动名词作宾语的动词或词组，有些动词或词组只跟动名词作宾语，你能快速掌握它们吗？请试试下面的顺口溜吧！学习英语有点难，忙于放弃摆面前（be busy，give up），不禁期望你喜欢（can’t help，look forward to，enjoy），介意作业做不完（mind，finish），优美文章值得看（be worth），继续练习莫推延（keep on，practice，put off）。

2. 议论文三部曲议论文是以议论为主要表达方式，通过摆事实、讲道理表明作者见解或主张的一种文体。

在近几年的中考试题中，出现了不少写议论文的题目。

写议论文需要确立论点，并辅之以充分的论据加以论证。

论点、论据和论证被称为议论文的三要素。

在英语议论文的写作中，应注意三个事项：（1）论点的基本要求是观点正确、认真概括、有实际意义。

（2）论据的基本要求是真实可靠、充分典型。

（3）论证的基本要求是推理符合逻辑。

英语议论文的结构一般较为固定，通常包括三个部分：（1）导语在导语部分提出需要议论的议题。

（2）正文在正文部分对所提出的论点进行论证。

（3）结论在结论部分对以上的论证进行总结和归纳。
