教师详解详析
本课教学资源
素材一 新课教学方法
1.教学方法
(1)课前调查法:教师布置任务,让学生课前调查家长上学时所用的交通工具。教师提问:How did your parents go to school when they were students?
(2)话题导入法:教师就“变化”话题与学生交流:Our city has changed a lot, and we've changed too. For example, I used to be single. I felt lonely from time to time. Now I'm married. Life is better in some ways. 教师可根据自己的情况设计交流的内容,尽量涵盖新单词、新知识,如:lonely, from time to time, married, in some ways等。
2.学习方法
内容记忆法
要记忆,一是要有信心,即暗示自己“我能行”;二是苦练,下工夫;三是要摸索适合自己的记忆方法。
(1)朗读背诵记忆法
学习时一遍接一遍地念,直到熟读,这种方法叫朗读法。高声朗读,记忆效果好。但诵读要与背诵相结合,效果会更好。
(2)覆盖关键部分记忆法
先用笔或纸盖住材料中你认为难以记忆的内容,这些被覆盖的部分自然无法看见,而再读这些材料时,可以想出被覆盖部分的内容。如果实在不能记住,则挪开笔或纸,反复几次,便记住了。
(3)开头、结尾记忆法
一般来说,开头、结尾的部分较容易记住,所以可以先把这两部分的内容记住,然后再重点记忆中间部分。
(4)单侧体操记忆法
单侧体操记忆法就是经常做左半身体操,充分发挥右半脑作用以增强记忆的方法。
(5)交谈记忆法
和同学一起讨论最近记忆的知识是有效的记忆方法。通过谈话,会使自己尚未扎根的记忆和没有自信的记忆变成确切的记忆,会更加牢固地铭记在脑海中。
素材二 课堂活动案例
活动一:学生两人一组活动,一名学生扮演Daniel的爷爷,对当地的变化很熟悉;另一名学生扮演一位电视台记者,想通过采访了解阳光镇的变化。让学生自己设计问题,教师注意引导学生,使对话情境更加真实。
活动二:请两至三组学生上台表演采访过程,为学生提供事先准备好的道具——话筒,使采访的情境更真实。
活动三:学生两人一组,讨论班级的变化。可采取采访教师或其他同学的形式,然后向全班同学汇报。教师提出问题:Our class has also changed in some ways. What has changed in our class?由此来引出话题。
素材三 新课导入设计
Daniel's grandfather has lived in Sunshine Town since he was born, so he knows the town's past and present. Millie wants to interview him to get some information. She wants to write about the changes in the town for her history project.

10.D 考查非谓语动词的用法。句意:政府已经采取行动来减少污染。take action to do sth意为“采取行动做某事”。故选D。
