Unit 17 Disabilities

Ⅰf Statements Based on the Unit

This unit mainly tells us the difficulties that the disabled people may face. The text“Disabled? Not me!”shows us a middle school student-Zhong Xiaowen, who could only move around in her wheelchair, could overcome lots of difficulties, and finally succeeded.

Describe the current situation and suggest ways to improve the situation.

Suggested writing:

After several days’ survey, I found that the government paid a little attention to the disabled and spend much money on new buildings. There is no special road for the blind. The buildings have many steps, and it’s difficult for the disabled to get into them.

A new government programmed has been designed to help disabled people. More special schools will be built. Not only will help be given to people to find jobs, but also medical treatment will be provided for people who need it. But the truth is that everyone should take care of disabled people, not just the government. If everyone shows love to them, their life will be much better.

Step Ⅹ Record after Teaching

Unit 18 Invention

Ⅰ單元教材內容分析

當全世界科學技術發展迅猛，各種發明創造層出不窮，是因爲人的思維品質與思維方式即（creative thinking）對發明創造起着至關重要的作用。因此培養學生的探究性思維能力，創造思維能力是時代社會對教育的要求。教師在課堂教學設計中力求體現“開放、啓發、引導、自主”的教學原則，幫助學生運用相關的詞彙表達自己的思想及思維過程，培養學生用英語描述某一發明創造，如構造的工作原理、用途等的能力。況且，我們曾經在高一（上）Unit9 Technology，高二Unit 1 Make a Different, Unit 6 Life in the future, Unit 11 Scientific achievement 等單元中已積累一些詞彙。

本單元的中心話題是：“發明”（Inventions），課文始終圍繞這一主題展開。具體涉及“科學技術發展”、“人的思維”、“創造性思維及其品質”、“對發明的新認識”等，語言知識和語言技能部分主要是圍繞“發明創造”這一中心話題時行設計的，要不斷豐富鞏固這一話題的詞彙及習慣短語。

“熱身”（Warming up）部分設計了三個練習，列舉了四件與學生日常生活聯繫密切的，富有啓迪意義。

“聽力”（Listening）部分提供了兩人申請發明專利的情景。兩項發明均未被接受。學生一方聽懂兩項發明，而且還要判斷髮明是否有用。這個聽力練習要求學生運用聽的技能的同時，還要學生思考、分析和解決的問題。

“讀前”（Pre-reading）部分設計了三個問題，這三個問題的設計提供給學生開放性的思維，可以利用“頭腦風暴”（brainstorming）讓學生展開思維，闡述自己的觀點，爲正文的閱讀作好語言鋪墊。

“閱讀”（Reading）部分介紹了偉大的思想家產生新發明的一些思路和思維模式：框外思維、換個角度看問題、聯想和不斷試驗。安排這篇文章的目的在於培養學生的創造性思維。這是一篇說明文，可以用來幫助學生學習說明文的結構。

“讀後”（Post-reading）部分是在閱讀的基礎上，通過兩個活動，檢查學生的理解程序，誘導學生聯繫實際，拓展思維。問答題的設計從表層引入深層、由課文導向課外。第一題爲判斷題，主要檢測學生對文章細節的理解和掌握。第二題實際上爲文章提出的發明創造的思維模式列舉了具體的例子。

“語言學習”（Language study）分詞彙和語法兩部分。詞彙部分設計了兩個練習，其目的是幫助學生複習所學過的詞彙（包括詞性和詞形）及短語。語法部分圍繞定語從句而展開，而且選用了謎語，生動有趣。

“綜合技能”（Integrating skills）部分有閱讀和寫作兩個任務。閱讀的文章說明科學隱喻（運用通俗的名稱於新的發明之中，如電腦中的memory，storage和paste、print等等）的作用及其侷限性。寫作題有兩個：“未來的電子計算機”和“向十九世紀的人介紹電腦”，由學生選作。這個任務符合學生的年齡特點、貼近現代生活，能夠引起學生的興趣。

“學習建議”（Tips）介紹不同的學習策略，如聯想、猜測、圖示以及分析錯誤等。

“複習要點”（Checkpoint）複習了定語從句。同時通過兩個問題引導學生對本單元所學的內容　進行一次反思。

II 教材內容處理

1、本單元教材重難點處理

我校大部分學生具有較充分的閱讀詞彙，但學生語法知識，口語表達能力較弱，用英語思維表達的習慣很弱。學生具有一定的自學能力，學校局域網健全，並配備學生專用電子閱覽室。這些使學生的自主探究學習成爲可能。基於上述學生情況，我列出本單元4項重點和4項難點。旨在突出圍繞本單元課題的詞彙，獲取文章大意的閱讀能力及闡述觀點的能力，以培養學生聚合思維和發散性思維，從而達到培養學生Creative thinking way，這也是本單元的教學目標之一。在word study 課時中把重點放在學生自我發現、練習鞏固上，講練結合，當堂鞏固。在定語從句複習與寫作訓練中，以圖式理論爲指導，採用分類列舉法幫助學習記憶語法規則，用列表法爲學生提供必要的說看材料，讓學生擴展成文。同時，以“引導、鋪墊、分散、突破、反饋”爲原則，處理課堂教學任務；以分組合作，筆頭記錄、口頭彙報的方式反饋兩項主題活動，這也是本單元2個非常重要的預習作業；以測試性評價手段，藉助多媒體來鞏固構詞法、定語從句和本單元的重點詞彙。在整個單元教學中，始終堅持任務目標，材料輸入（導說領先），活動或討論，筆頭落實，環環相扣。碰到一項較難的任務時，以教師提供幫助或教學內容在教學程序上的鋪墊來減輕任務的難度，從而使大部分都能獲得成就感。

2、教材運用的改編或增減

增加部分：增加構詞法的練習鞏固

　　增加定語從句的改錯練習與單選題

　　增加workbook中的聽力練習,同時把workbook integrating作爲泛讀材料

　　增加中學生科技發明獎的新聞材料，讓學生讀後討論

is the young scientist? What nationality is he?

is the teenager’s invention?

do the judges think of the new invention?

advantages does the new invention provide?

many projects take part in the competition and how many of them made it through to the final round?

Discussion:　 a creative student always a top student in subjects?

do you think makes him a creative student?

刪減部分：Wb P131 Ex2

Wb P133 Ex3

改編教材：1、把P62 part4作爲第一課時的導入材料，以激發學生的興趣

　　2、把P62 Ex3改編成遊戲。

　　3、把P61 Ex3改編成競賽活動。

　　4、把wb P130 listening P131 talking與speaking部分相結合，作爲第二課時，主要培養學生的合作意識和口語能力。

3、測試安排

以同步作業本（科學普及出版社）進行同步作業佈置，學生自我檢測，教師批改、課堂分析、鞏固。

4、本單元教學設計創意之處

①始終堅持任務目標→導說領先→活動或討論→反饋或筆頭落實→環環相扣，逐步鋪墊。

②增減或改編了部分教材，講練結合，當堂鞏固，達到知識到能力的正向遷移。

③設計兩項主題活動提高學生合作學習意識和能力。

④中學生科技發明類的新聞材料來源於學生的生活實際，肯定能使感到興趣盎然，能喚起學生進行科技創新的意識。

⑤單列一個課時speaking，圍繞三個話題，培養學生口語表達能力。

“How much do you know invention?”

“a smart something”

“apply for a patent”

V 單元課時教學設計

Period 1 Warning up ＆ Listening

Period 2 Speaking ＆ Talking

Period 3 Pre-reading & Reading & Post-reading

Period 4 Language study ＆ Practice

Period 5 Integrating skill ＆ Writing

Period 6 the Revision of the Attributive Clause (possible)

Period 7-8 the two periods for exercises

Period 1 Warming & Listening

Goals 1. Improve the Ss’ listening ability.

2. Enable the Ss to get involved in the topic and familiar to some new words and expressions.

Step1 Lead-in

Today’s topic is invention.

When we speak of invention, we can’t help thinking of the four great inventions in ancient China. What are they? Meanwhile， with the development of science more inventions have come about. These inventions are wonderful.

T：Now what invention do you think is the most useful? Why?

Ss: Collect the Ss’ opinion

T: But some inventions are so common that we often forget how wonderful they are. For example, zippers are very useful, but they are forgotten. Almost none of us know who invented them. Do you think so? Do you think it is important to know how things were invented?

If you want to invent something, you need to train yourself to have creative thinking to think about them in a different way based on the present things.

Now let’s do some riddles to see how clever you are? (on the screen)

1. What is it that Adam has none Eve has two and everyone has three?

2. What is it that the dead eat and that the living would die if they ate.

3. What is it that you use your head to your toes and the more it works the thinner it gets.

4. What is it that is not an airplane but moves through the sky not a river but is full of water?

Step 2 Warning up and discussion

Let the Ss look at the pictures to tell anything special about each picture and then ask the Ss to match each picture with the correct description below.

Ask some questions:

1. What kind of shoes is it? Is there anything special with the shoe?

2. In picture2 the chopsticks can be eaten.

Which word means eaten? edible chopsticks

3. What does nose-top computer mean?

How can you use it?

4. What does “inflatable bike” mean?

What are the advantages of bikes of this kind?

Discussion:

1. Which of these inventions do you think would be useful? Why?

教師可以幫助學生運用：I think ** would be the most useful invention because by using **, we can …

2. Is there anything you would like to invent? If so, what and why?

Possible sentence: I would like to invent a multi-use car. The multi-use car is a new type of car which can pass through any place when it is crowded. For example… You will never be late and save a lot of time for you.

Step 3 Pre-listening

We know when someone has invented something, usually he will go to a patent officer to apply for his patent. Now let’s listen to two dialogues.

In the dialogues, Mr Dean and Mr Scoles both have invented something. They’re trying to get the patent for their inventions from the patent officer. Let’s go through the questions on P15 first and then do the listening.

Step 4 Listening

Play the tape twice for students to listen to and them answer the questions. Play it a third time for the students to check their answers in pairs. At last check the answer with the whole class.

Blackboard:

Creative thinking

edible chopsticks

environmentally friendly(read-friendly)

inflatable

apply for 申請（vi） apply 應用（vt）

apply for a patent for sth

the patent officer

give a patent

hold a patent

step6 Assignment

1. Find out as many inventors as possible and try to describe one of most important inventors you think to the class, using the attributive clause if possible.

Period2 Speaking & Talking

Goals: Expand the topic around inventions to develop the Ss’ creating thinking and speaking ability.

Step1 Lead-in and reporting

T: Well, let’s begin our lesson. So far we’ve known some inventions and their inventors. Who is your most admirable inventor. Please describe something him or her to the class? Anyone will be the first?

Invite the some individual to report their preparations one by one.

Step2 Talking

T: We know inventions are important and great. It seems a little difficult to invent something. But do you think it is always difficult to think of something special?

S: No, sometimes it is not so hard to think of “A smart something”. And in our real life. We can create many smart things, for example, a smart refrigerator can tell you when you need to buy more milk or eggs. A smart air-conditioner can change the temperature itself when it is becoming hot or cold.

T: What smart objects can you think of ?

Ss: Collect Ss’ ideas and then let the Ss turn to P131 Ex.1 and choose two of the smart devices below and have a discussion with your partner to see how they could be used and then decide one to give a report.

Smart money Smart shoes Smart basketball Smart clock Smart pen

Smart car Smart medicine Smart bike Smart heater

Step 3 Speaking (role-play)

From the last lesson we also know how to apply for a patent. Now you are in a patent office. Let’s play a game. Each of you will be given a role card work in groups of five: four inventors and one patent officer. Each inventor should explain how the invention works and why it is useful. The patent officer should ask question and decide whether each invention is a good or not. And I’ll show you some useful expressions to help you. In the end show out some example dialogues.

This invention can help people…

This new invention will make it possible for people to…

This is a new way of…

It has many functions like…

What does it look like…

What’s it make of…?

How does it work…?

How would people use it ?

What are some advantages compared to other product of this kind?

專利官員評判時可使用以下句型:

1. I’m much impressed by ________

2. I think your invention is ____________

3. That’s really a good idea ___________

4. I’m afraid it might not _____________

5. I’m sorry ,but I can’t give you a patent for

6. I think you can have the patent for ________

Possible examples：

A=Patent Officer

B, C, and D =Inventors

A: Good morning. Please tell me about your invention.

B: Yes, well, I have invented a car that uses water instead of petrol. This invention is great for the environment. Imagine how nice and clean our cities would be if we didn’t have all the air pollution from cars.

A: Yes, it does sound good. How does it work?

B: Well, I can’t explain the details, but it uses a new kind of engine that can turn water into energy. The new engine is a bit expensive, and the cars won’t be able to drive very fast, but I think it will become cheaper with time. It is a new way of producing energy, so we will have to build new cars. It can’t be used for normal cars.

A: I see. What about your invention?

C: I have invented a machine that makes it possible for people to know the future.

A: That sounds incredible! How does it work?

C: It’s a small computer that is connected to your brain. It uses everything you know, and all the information on the Internet. Then I use a special equation to guess what will happen next. The machine is right almost90% of the time.

A: How would people use it?

C: Well, let’s say you want to know what questions will be on the maths test next week. You ask the computer to guess and it will predict the questions. Or, if you want to know what will happen two weeks from now, you just type in the date and the computer will describe what will happen to you.

D: Excuse me, may I tell you about my new invention?

A: OK.

D: I have invented a flying bicycle. This invention can help people get around in crowded cities.

A: What’s it made of?

D: The bicycle is made of very light plastic. The bike doesn’t weigh more than 50 grams.

A: And how does it work? What does it look like?

D: There is a small engine on the bike----it looks a bit like a helicopter. If you want to fly, you just start the engine and take off.

( The discussion continues.)

Step 4 Extensive Listening practice (part 1)

Go through Ex.1 on P130 and do extensive listening practice for exact information

Step 5 Summary

Today we’ve learnt how to express and support an opinion. And we’ve learnt how to apply for a patent when you have made an invention. Many of you have wonderful ideas about new inventions. Study hard now and I believe you’ll make your own invention in the future.

Step6 Assignment

1. Preview the text and learn the make out difficult sentences new words and expression.

2. Draw your invention and to apply for a patent, please give a good description to it, including how it looks, how it works, and how people can use it.

Period 3 Reading

Goals: 1. Learn the text and train the Ss’ reading ability.

2. Learn some useful words and expressions.

3. Help the Ss to learn to be more creative.

Step 1 Lead-in and Pre-reading

T: Greeting and ask:

In modern times, we have so many inventions? What inventions have you known?

Yes, the inventions can make people’s life easier and better. They will do a lot of good to people.(on the screen)

① But how do they come up with ideas for new invention.

② Do you think you have to be very intelligent to be an inventor?

③ Are some people born creative or is it possible to learn to be creative?

If you want to be an inventor yourself, you must have a lot of questions. New read the passage quickly to find the answers to these questions above.

Step 2 Reading

Allow the Ss a few minutes to find the answers to the questions.

T: Are you finished?

Ss: Yes.

Then collect different opinions from the Ss.

Focus on:

1. Why is it possible to learn how to be creative?

3. Guide the Ss to say out the following points.

① People should try new ways to solve a problem and break away from old thought patterns.

② People should try to combine new with old ideas in many different ways as possible. By comparing and connecting ideas and objects in new ways. People may think of new application and solutions.

③ Good ideas are no accident. They are the result of a long process of trial and error. So keeping trying is important. Failure is the mother of success, as we know.

( look like, development, uses of computers in different fields, machine, at high speed, calculate, in many fields, it is said that) These words maybe available and helpful

Let the students have a discussion and writer their composition. Check one student’s writing and then give out a sample description.:

Samples:

Have you ever seen a computer?Now let me tell you something about the computer. A computer is an electric calculating machine that can store and recall information and make calculations at very high speed. It is a wonderful machine and can do most of the things people can do, but it can work millions of times faster. The first large, modern computer was built in 1946, and people needed a large house to put it in. In the last few years there have been great changes in computers. Today they can be used in many fields. People even use it to pay their bills or order what they want . It is said that in the future computers would arrange everything for people, and do almost all kinds of work. That would be a real computer society! I believe that the computer will sure become smaller and smart, which you take where you go.

Step 5 Summary and Assignment

Today we read a passage about toe scientific metaphors and know these phrases (omission). In this Unit we also learn how to become more creative by practising good thinking strategies. They can be used to study English too. Read the tips on P64 and try the ideas in future and they are helpful for your English study. Don’t forget to finish the workbook

Young Scientist of the Year 2003

Congratulations to 16-year-old Adnan Osmani from St Finians College, Mulllingar, Co Westmeath who is the winner of the 2003 EsatBT Young Scientist and Technology winning entry incorporates a new type of browser for speeding up internet usage by 400%. The project, labelled 'The Graphical Technological and User-friendly Advancement of the Internet Browser: “XWEBS is”, says Adnan “the most feature-packed web browser the world has ever seen.” It will allow users to load up even the heaviest of websites in less than 18 seconds, something which the schoolboy says is up to four times faster than any existing internet explorer. The project impressed the judges with its comprehensive range of features which includes an animated character using human speech to read out web pages. The judges described his achievement and depth of knowledge as 'far in advance of his years' and tipped 16-year-old Adnan Osmani to take over from Bill Gates as the world's computer whiz ady a number of major computer companies have expressed an interest in the teenager's invention. More than 1,000 students had taken part in the competition and out of 910 entries, 477 projects made it through to the final round. Minister for Education and Science Noel Dempsey and Tom Byrne, of ESAT-BT, presented Adnan with a cheque for ¤3,000, a Waterford Crystal trophy and the opportunity to represent Ireland at the European Union Contest for Young Scientists taking place in Budapest in September tional awards presented included Best Group Winners Cathal Mullin, Eimear Smith and Liam O'Kane from St Patrick's CoEd Comprehensive, Derry; individual runner-up went to Mairead McCloskey, Loretto College, Derry.

Announcing the new Built-in Orderly Organized Knowledge device

or BOOK

The BOOK is a revolutionary breakthrough in technology: no wires, no electric circuits, no batteries, nothing to be connected or switched on. It's so easy to use even a child can operate it. Just lift its cover!

Compact and portable, it can be used anywhere -- even sitting in an armchair by the fire -- yet it is powerful enough to hold as much information as a CD-ROM disc.

Here's how it works:

Each BOOK is constructed of sequentially numbered sheets of paper (recyclable), each capable of holding thousands of bits of information. These pages are locked together with a custom-fit device called a binder which keeps the sheets in their correct sequence. Opaque Paper Technology (OPT) allows manufacturers to use both sides of the sheet, doubling the information density and cutting costs in half.

Experts are divided on the prospects for further increases in information density; for now BOOKs with more information simply use more pages. This makes them thicker and harder to carry, and has drawn some criticism from the mobile computing crowd.

Each sheet is scanned optically, registering information directly into your brain. A flick of the finger takes you to the next sheet.

The BOOK may be taken up at any time and used by merely opening it. The BOOK never crashes and never needs rebooting, though like other display devices it can become unusable if dropped overboard. The "browse" feature allows you to move instantly to any sheet, and move forward or backward as you wish.

Many come with an "index" feature, which pinpoints the exact location of any selected information for instant retrieval.

An optional BOOK mark accessory allows you to open the BOOK to the exact place you left it in a previous session, even if the BOOK has been closed. BOOK marks fit universal design standards; thus, a single BOOK mark can be used in BOOKs by various manufacturers. Conversely, numerous BOOK marks can be used in a single BOOK if the user wants to store numerous views at once. The number is limited only by the number of pages in the BOOK. (BOOK marks can be purchased commercially in a wide variety of styles, or easily created at home from readily available materials by the BOOK user.)

You can also make personal notes next to BOOK text entries with optional programming tools: Portable Erasable Nib Cryptic Intercommunication Language Stylus (PENCILS).

Portable, durable, and affordable, the BOOK is being hailed as the entertainment and information communication wave of the future. The BOOK's appeal seems so certain that thousands of content creators have committed to the platform. Look for a flood of new titles soon.

高二英語下冊教材培訓

SEFCB2 unit 19 The merchant of Venice 說課稿

一、教材分析

本單元的中心話題是“莎士比亞與他的戲劇”；內容涉及“莎士比亞”、“威尼斯商人”、“亨利四世”、“哈姆雷特”、“羅密歐與朱麗葉”、“特洛伊羅斯與克瑞西達”等。語言知識和語言技能都是根據“莎士比亞與他的戲劇”這一中心話題設計的。

1、 Warming up部分由兩個練習組成。第一個練習要求學生說出書中對白出自莎士比亞的哪部戲劇，並解釋他們的含義。要完成這個練習，學生首先得對莎士比亞的作品要有所瞭解，因爲，要準確理解戲劇中的對白，學生就必須要了解故事情節及相關背景。第二個練習的目的是要幫助學生更多地瞭解莎士比亞的作品，尤其是他創作的戲劇。

2、 Listening部分由兩個練習組成，聽力內容是一段獨白，向學生介紹了《威尼斯商人》的故事片段，該片段爲閱讀部分的故事提供了背景。第一個練習就故事的主要內容設置了四個問題，比如，故事發生的地點、借款與還款方式等。第二個練習用圖表的形式，直觀地考察學生對故事中五個主要人物的身份、表現以及他們之間的關係的理解。這兩個練習主要訓練學生把握文段細節的能力。

3、 Speaking部分要求學生就“同情與報復”和“愛情與金錢”這兩個話題進行討論。這是貫穿《威尼斯商人》始終的兩條線索，對他們的討論至今仍有着現實意義。對這兩個問題的回答，直接或從側面反映了人們的人生觀、價值觀以及人們對待生活的態度。因此，在教學和訓練本單元有關“在交談中強調細節”的日常用語的同時，教師還有責任給學生以正確的引導，幫助學生明辨是非，確立正確的人生價值取向，建立符合社會規範的道德體系，並做遵紀守法的公民。

4、 Reading部分是根據莎士比亞的戲劇《威尼?
