二、教学内容及重点难点：
本设计选取的是牛津高中英语模块六第一单元的阅读课文，它具有如下特点：
第一：就体裁而言，本文是说明性文章，介绍的是西方流行的单口喜剧和著名单口喜剧演员Billy Crystal 。因此，教学过程中应引导学生获取与主题相关的基本信息。
第二：就内容而言，单口喜剧来源于西方，不同于中国的相声，小品或滑稽戏，同学对此比较陌生，所以教学内容的重点之一就放在单口喜剧的分类和识别上。另外; 通过对Billy
Crystal的身份，能力和流行度的归纳来帮助学生加强对主人公的认识。本文第三板块的主旨是Laughter is good for your health，采用讨论的方法拓展了同学对主题的理解并深化了主题。
第三：就结构而言，本文段落清晰。因此，教学过程中应该引导学生体会和理解这种结构来运用到写作和演讲的实践中。
Important points（重点）：
1.To understand the structure of the whole passage.
2 Understand the definition of stand-up as well as its type
3 Get to know Billy Crystal
4 How to guess the meaning of unknown or unfamiliar words

1.To develop the students’ reading skills.
2.To make sure that everyone understand the article well
3.To help the students guess the meaning of the words correctly
4.To practice laughter is the best medicine in our daily life
三、教学对象及其学习需要分析
目前，高二学生经过一年多的高中英语学习，有一定的阅读技巧，但阅读过程中常局限信息碎片的获取而难以形成整体上的把握。因此，引导学生学会从课文结构和内容层次分析的角度把握段落和文章。高二学生已经具有一定的英语语言功底，部分学生能够较为自如地表达自己对一些事物的观点；另一部分学生在掌握了一些关键词汇的基础上也能就一定话题发表自己独到的看法，学生之间的合作学习也有了很好的发展。通过上下文的语境来猜测词义是教学中一直强调的重点，学生在这一方面略有进步。在本课的授课过程中采用了归纳课文内 2 容和猜测词义相结合的方式，帮助学生加强这一能力的培养。通过让他们积极参与实践、学习和使用英语，调动他们学习英语的兴趣。
四、教学媒体选择：
计算机多媒体技术，投影仪，课件
五、教学过程：
教学方法：启发式、任务型阅读、师生互动
Teaching procedures:
Step1：Lead in
1.Can you name these great comedians?
2.Introduce Rowan Atkinson
a well-known British comedian; famous for the character Mr. Bean.
Mr. Bean is funny because he makes funny faces, he acts stupidly, he seems to be
quite silly, and the things he does are strange.
3. A joke for the Ss to enjoy.
A joke usually makes you laugh, and there are other things that will make you laugh. Besides the
forms we mentioned above, what else can make us laugh?
[Explanation]
喜剧的幽默能激发学生的学习热情，让学生从熟悉的中国喜剧笑星到外国的憨豆先生熟悉本单元的话题Laughter并适时地通过与学生的对话引出本课的话题stand-up，然后从一个图文 3 并茂的笑话入手，引起学生的兴趣，接着再问起还有哪些形式会引人发笑也就顺理成章。在这个过程中引入“stand-up”这个概念很容易引起学生的好奇，为下一步的阅读做好铺垫，并有利于他们对课文的理解.
Step2: Fast Reading
1 What is stand-up？
A kind of comedy.
2.Where is stand-up comedy usually done？
On a stage.
3. Who is Billy Crystal？
A famous comedian.
4.What is laughter good for?
Our health.
[Explanation]
让学生通过阅读第一段和小标题获取文章主体意思，既可以避免学生长时间阅读的沉闷，又可以引导学生对文章首段和小标题的关注，有利于其阅读策略的养成。
Step3：Reading Strategy
Go through the reading strategy, and find out how to guess the meaning of new words.
1. The writer will give the meaning of difficult or technical vocabulary in the sentences around it.
2. The way a word is used may also give you some idea of the meaning.
[Explanation]
疏通阅读策略，让学生知道遇到生单词时可以通过两种方法来猜测单词的意思。
Step4Detailed Reading
1. Read the part of “Types of stand-up”
Ask the Ss to find out the different types of stand-up and explain them.
（If the Ss don’t know the meaning the new words of the four types, guide them to guess from the
context.）
2. Read the part of “A famous comedian”
(1) Ask the Ss to read the first few lines and answer the question “Who is mentioned here as a
famous comedian?”—Billy Crystal
(2) Ask the Ss to read this part carefully and try to complete the file for Billy Crystal. When
talking about Billy’s idols, give the Ss some information about Bob Hope and George Burns.
(3) Ask the Ss to discuss in groups of 4: “What special qualities should a comedian have?”
(The teacher can give some answers after the discussion, but don’t limit the students’ answers.)
3. Read the part of “Laughter is good for your health”
Ask the Ss two questions:
(1) What does your brain do when you laugh?
--When you laugh, your brain sends chemicals around your body that are
good for you.
(2) What is the English idiom about laughter mentioned in the text?
--“Laughter is the best medicine”
[Explanation]
因为课文本身的三个部分相对独立，让学生分部分阅读有利于学生注意力的集中和教师的有效引导。“Types of stand-up”部分让学生根据原文找到四种不同类型之后，再即时应用，让学生再运用中真正理解文本内容。“A famous comedian”部分让学生填写Billy Crystal的档案，有利于学生有条理的寻找所需要的信息，并且教师在这一部分补充一定的其他信息，让学生所了解到的人物更完整和丰满。“Laughter is good for your health”部分比较简单，主要让
