Book 9_U1_资源库_教学设计牛津高中英语教学设计单元：Unit 1 Other countries, other cultures板块：ProjectThoughts on the design:本课旨在帮助学生通过一篇“澳大利亚是否是一个热爱运动的国度”的文章的阅读，模仿写一篇关于中国文化特征的议论文。仔细研读，我发现这篇文章论点鲜明、论据确凿、用词精当、感情色彩浓厚，文章的间架结构组织得非常严密。因此，我认为本节课的重点应该放在处理阅读上，在认真学习了文章的写作技巧的基础上引导学生模仿叙述方能水到渠成。本课原来要求制作一个活动挂图，由于时间、资源等方面的限制，难度较大。教师可以在课堂上要求学生提出设计思路，课后安排一定的时间给学生通过小组合作完成和展示。Teaching aims:After reading Is Australia really a sporting nation? the students will not only be able to list the reasons why the writer says Australia is a sporting nation, know how this article is organized, but also realize how to make your article more persuasive; After learning, the students will be able to display one distinctive aspect of the Chinese culture, organize their projects and present their projects to the class.By working together, the students will learn how to cooperate in groups when trying to complete a project.Teaching procedures:Step 1 Have a free talk with the students about countries with some famous aspects of its culture.

Write the number of those who agree and the number of those who disagree on the blackboard.Explanation这一部分作为热身，既顺利过渡到文章的阅读，又能通过交流拓宽学生的视野，丰富其文化内涵。关于法国、英国等国家文化特征的答案学生会有很多，要鼓励他们积极思维。关于运动是否构成澳大利亚主要文化特征的问题，只需要做一个调查统计，所得数字写在黑板上，待学生阅读文章后再进行比较，从而可以看出这篇文章的说服力有多大。Step 2 Get the students to quickly read Paragraph 3Paragraph 8 of the magazine article Is Australia really a sporting nation? and try to answer this question: What sports are popular in Australia?Help the students to group their answers into three families: Water sports, Ball games and Others.SportExamplesWater sportswimming; surfing; sailingBall gamestennis; cricket; rugby; soccer; Australian rules footballOthershorse racingExplanation 这部分采用速读，旨在培养学生检索信息的能力。至于为什么只选取3-8节，主要是为了节省时间、提高阅读速度。Step 3Read the article again while listening to the tape.
