Unit 1 Women of achievement教学设计(英语人教版高中必修4)
Unit 1Women of Achievement◆Analysis of Teaching Material 教材分析本单元的话题是“取得成就的优秀女性”，通过介绍几位不同国度、不同时代、不同职业、不同理想与追求、不同经历的杰出女性，探讨了女性对社会、对人类的价值和贡献，展示了女性的风采和她们在社会各个领域的成就。
学习本单元有助于提高对妇女社会角色的认识，了解成功女性的奋斗经历和勇于斗争的精神，培养学生（尤其是女生）的事业心和社会责任感，建立正确的性别观和和自信心。
Warming up中的材料是古今中外六位杰出女性的简介。
这部分要求学生通过讨论来区分伟人与名人。
其作用有二：一是统领全单元主题，二是引导学生树立正确的世界观、人生观和价值观。
教师在这一点上要起到引导作用而不是简单的说教。
Reading这部分由Pre-reading，Reading和Comprehending三部分组成。
Reading一文介绍了Jane Goodall与其同事们在非洲森林里的一天，并由此引出她的工作方法及其所取得的成就。
同时阐明了她的观点，即要理解、尊重和保护动物。
Pre-reading部分提出了两个问题：Why do you think Jane Goodall went to Africa to study chimps rather than to a university？和Do you think her work is important？Why？这两道题给了学生这样的提示：在研究动物时如何体现科学与人道的结合。
Comprehending中针对课文内容从细节到中心思想，由浅入深地设计了练习题，可帮助学生真正了解Jane Goodall 及其所从事的事业。
Learning about Language 这部分包含两方面的内容：词汇和语法。
词汇部分主要涉及一些构词法、重点词汇和短语。
语法部分是“主谓一致”，重点在如何确定集合名词的数。

All-China Women’s Federation didn’t take their responsibility for women's rights.
organization
Despite these changes, the gap and discriminates（歧视） between men’s and women’s rights still exist.
Since the feminist movement, women have been no longer satisfied with the old lifestyle.
What is more, they are demanding for both political and social status.
At that time, obedience(孝顺) is the criterion for women's value.
全新版大学英语综合教程2学生用书课后习题答案
全新版大学英语综合教程2学生用书课后习题答案全新版大学英语第二版综合教程2答案Unit1 Ways of LearningContent Question1. They were studying arts education in Chinese kindergartens and elementary schools in Nanjing.2. Their 18-month-old son Benjamin was fond of trying to place the key into the slot of the key box during their stay at the Jinling Hotel.3. They would come over to watch Benjamin and then try to teach him how to do it properly.4. Because he realized that this anecdote was directly relevant to their assigned tasks in China: to investigate early childhood education and to throw light on Chinese attitudes toward creativity.5. Most of them displayed the same attitude as the staff at the Jinling Hotel.6. He emphasized that the most important thing is to teach the child that on can solve a problem effectively by oneself.7. He means that this incident pointed to important differences in educational and artistic practices between China and the USA.8. The manner in which the Chinese staff saw the need to teach the child by guiding his hand in the characteristic of a broader attitude to education, one that stands in contrast to the Western preference for leaving the child to explore and learn unaided.9. One example is of children at the age of 5 or 6 painting flowers, fish and animals skillfully and confidently; in a secondexample, calligraphers 9 and 10 years old were producing works; and in a third,young artists work on perfecting their craft for several hoursa day.10. Americans think that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge, and skills can be picked up later. Chinese think that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired, and there is no hurry to promote creativity.11. This is mainly due to the difference in their way of thinking.12. The author makes the suggestion that we should strike a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1.1) The text begins with an anecdote.2) His thoughts are mainly about different approaches to learning in China and the West.3) He winds up the text with a suggestion in the form ofa question.2. Chinese1) Show a child how to do something, or tech by holding the hand2) Give greater priority to developing skills at an early age, believing that creativity can be promoted over timeAmericans1) Teach children that they should rely on themselves for solutions to problems2) Put more emphasis on fostering creativity in young children, thinking skills can be picked up laterUnit2 ValuesContent Question1. The Salvation Army is a religious charitableorganization. A Salvation Army bell ringer is a volunteer who help it collect donations.2. The boy asked him: Are you poor? He did it simply out of confusion and curiosity. Obviously he knew nothing about the Salvation Army bell ringer.3. He said, “I have more than some people, but not as mu ch as others.” This means that he was neither poor nor rich.4. The boy’s mother scolded h im because the question was social inappropriate, especially to a person who looked poor.5. Yes, economically he is poor. He lives in a small basemen t apartment. He doesn’t even have a color TV. He falls into the lowest income category. And so on.6. No, the writer does not feel poor. This is because he has enjoyed good health and creativity which he thinks are much more important than material goods.7. He feels out of place among people who are primarily interested in material things.8. She told him th at she was interested in what’s on the inside. but after he took her to his poorly furnished apartment, she changed her mind completely.9. It only shows that to her the most important thing was still material goods rather than what she had claimed before.10. Commercial can put people under pressure to purchase more than is really necessary.11. Because December is the time for to work for the Salvation Army as a bell ringer, which gives him a genuine sense of belonging and brings him happiness in helping others.12. The boy’s question has helped the writer realize that, despite his lack of expensive possessions, he is rich in many other ways and shouldbe thankful for that.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1.1) a.√2) the essay is meant to explain something that is, the author’s view of life.3) That one can live a life full of riches without being rich financially.2.Part One: The writer’s encounter with a boy who raised the question “are you poor?”Part Two: In search of an answer the writer finds that not having expensive possessions doesn’t make him feel poor mainly because he enjoys life in many other ways.Part Three: In conclusion, the writer thinks he’s grown to understand more about himself because of the boy’s question.Unit3 The Generation GapContent Question1. There are seven characters---Father, Mother, Heidi, Diane, Sean, Restaurant Manager, and Mrs. Higgins.2. No. Because what he does usually ends up embarrassing them.3. To buy a guitar.4. To check if Sean was going to embarrass him.5. He knew his father was going to embarrass him.6. It was unnecessary and embarrassing.7. He wanted Dan to pressure his son into asking Diane to the senior prom.8. He would speak to his son and insist that the latter give Diane a call.9. She felt humiliated.10. Because the Thompson had just moved.11. He tried to let her know how exceptionally talented a young woman Heidi was.12. Because she couldn’t bear being embarrassed by her father. Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1.1. A fast-food restaurant2. The Thompson family dining room3. An office at a high school2.Scene One: Father embarrassed Sean by talking too proudly to the restaurant manager.Scene Two: Father embarrassed Diane by persuading a colleague into pressing his son to ask her to the senior prom.Scene Three: Father embarrassed Heidi by boating to an official at her new school about how talented she was.Unit4 The Virtual WorldContent Question1. She used to be a television producer, but now she is a writer.2. She writes and edits articles online, submits them via email, and communicates with colleagues via the Internet, too.3. She could stay computer-assisted at home for weeks, going out only t get mail, newspapers and groceries.4. They feel as if they had become one with the computer,and life seems to be unreal.5. That people who grew used to a virtual life would feel an aversion to outside forms of socializing.6. She gets overexcited, speaks too much, and interrupts others.7. She is bad-tempered, easily angered, and attacks everyone in sight, all because she has long become separated from others and lacks emotional face-to-face exchanges with people.8. She fights her boyfriend, misinterpreting his intentions because of the lack of emotional cues given by their typed dialogue.9. Because we rely on co-works for company.10. She calls people, arrangers to meet the few friends remaining in the City, gets to the gym, arranges interviews for stories, doctor’s appointments---anything to get her out of the house and connected with others.11. No, she doesn’t feel happy. She feels being face to face is intolerable.12. She makes her excuses and flees, re-enters her apartment, runs to the computer, clicks on the modem, and disappears into the virtual world again.Text OrganizationWorking On Your Own1.1. 2-32. 1,4-10,133. 114. 122.The first paragraph describes the consequences of living a virtual life and the last tells of the author’s escape back into it. Together, they bring out the dilemma people at present are in: Because of modern technology, we have a choice between a virtual life and real life, but find both unsatisfactory.Unit5 Overcoming ObstaclesContent Question1. Because the pole was set at 17 feet which was three inches higher than his personal best.2. Because pole-vaulting combines the grace of a gymnast with the strength of a body builder.3. His childhood dream was to fly. His mother read him numerous stories about flying when he was growing up.4. Because he believed in hard work and sweat.

Unit 6 Women, Half the Sky Teaching plan全新版大学英语二
Unit 6 Women, Half the SkyI. Teaching plan (5 periods)1. Objectives1) Grasp the main idea (the belief in superwomen encourages average women to achieve their goals) and structure of the text;2) Appreciate how the author achieves coherence for her essay;3) Master key language points and grammatical structures in the text;4) Conduct a series of reading, listening, speaking and writing activities centered upon the theme of the unit.1) Listen to the recording (script for recording on Page 302 of text book 1) two or three times and then think over the following questions:-----Why can’t women be ignored?Because of their huge numbers----What happens to women if you try to break their will?You can bend them but you can never break them. It only serves to make them more determined to achieve their final goal.2) Free writing: Is my mother busy? What are her main tasks in daily life?3) Introduction to Text A: Whether you like it or not, women in many cases have to take up more responsibilities than men. That’s why the author of Text A, Adrienne Popper, writes: Men have generally been assured that achieving their heart’s desires would b e a piece of cake. Women, of course, have always believed that we can’t have our cake and eat it too.” What she means is that men are encouraged to achieve their goals in life, but women know that they can only achieve some goals at the expense of other goals. However, there are superwomen in the real world who are capable of great deeds as well as enjoying life. It is they who give the average woman the courage to go on.4. While-reading tasks1) Text OrganizationThe text could be divided into parts in several ways organizationally.Part one (Para 1-3)Despite her friend’s advice, the author, unable to resist the temptation, falls for superwomen stories again.Part two (Para 4-7)Her encounter with a superwoman and its impact on herPart three (Para 8-11)She tells about what prevents her from becoming a superwoman herself.Part four (Para 12-14)She analyzes why she is still fascinated by modern superwomen tales.Part five (Para 15)She comes to the conclusion that to her, admiring a heroine is something worth doing. 2) The author explains how difficult it is to be a superwoman mainly by personal experiences:She is unable to get her act together.She can almost expect something to go wrong as soon as she sets to work.Anything might happen that would take up much more of time she puts aside for a certain job.She casually feels exhausted after a busy day.If I believed everything in the report, she had a bridge in Brooklyn she’d like to sell me. Folktales about people who are so gullible they have been persuaded to buy a well-known landmark by confidence tricksters are numerous in America and elsewhere.5. ExercisesSynonyms: also, as well, tooAlso is unusually used before a verb, after “be” or auxiliary; also can be used at the beginning of a sentence to modify the sentence. Too is sometimes put after the first word in a clause.E.g. To my knowledge, Mary is also a superwoman.He also liked to try to place the key into the slot.It’s too large for us. Also, the rent is a bit too high.As well and too usually come at the end of a sentenceUsage: Get+ to doGet+ infinitive is often used to mean one has the opportunity to do something.E.g. I got to do a little work in General Motors when I was in Detroit.You’ll get to speak English more easily as tim e goes by.Structure: If onlyToo+ adj. + for...We use “If only” to say that we would like things to be different; the clause with “if only”often stands alone without a main clause, which means the same as I wish.E.g. I wish it were that simple!If only it were that simple.Too+ adj. + for... can be used to indicate that an amount or degree of a quality is more than is desirable or acceptable.6. Writing StrategyCoherenceWhen you write, be sure to make all the ideas and sentences in your paper fit together around its thesis, the central idea, and the writing flow smoothly from one sentence to another. This is what we call coherence.The main devices used in achieving coherence include transitional words or phrases like however, but, therefore, thus, fi rst, second, what’s more, as to, and in terms of, repetition of key words and phrases.Write a short essay entitled “Women Hold up Half the Sky”1) Men and women are created equal;2) Women’s unfavorable social status;3) What brings about this problem and how to solve it?II. Text AnalysisAs mentioned in Writing Strategy for this unit, there are three main ways of achieving coherence: the use of transitional words and phrases, the repetition of key words and phrases, and the use of parallel structure.Text A does employ such transitional words like but, however, yet. Para 8 to 10 provide a good example of using transitional phrases and sentences, so much so that we can consider this section as a mini-essay. The topic is made clear by the last sentence of Para 8: “No matter how carefully I plan my time, the plan always goes wrong.’ Para 9 goes on to say that something must go wrong with the kids when “I” make schedules of military precision. Para 10 states: “Other days (boldfaced by editors), every item on my schedule will take three time the number of minutes set aside.”Yet the most striking feature of Text A is the repetition of key words and phrases. The occurrences of the phrase Brooklyn Bridge or the bridge weave the essay into a coherent piece. Synonyms like superwomen, heroine, super sisters, and super heroines appear five times to remind readers of the topic of this essay. The five instances where the phrase “in her spare time” is used to emphasize the amazing fact that some super-capable women can still find spare time in their tight schedule. On the other hand, synonymous phrases like modern fairy tale, fantasy, dream, incredible achievements, and extraordinary deeds point out the fact that many people do not believe in super-women stories.There is no strictly parallel structure in this essay. However, some may regard the comparison between “my” daily struggle and the achievements of Kate L., the daughter of a politician, the woman executive, etc. as parallel.III. Cultural Notes1. Feminism:in the 1960s feminism (= the belief that women and men are equal in abilities and should have equal rights and opportunities)2. The Brooklyn Bridge: the bridge over the East River in New York City that connects Manhattan with Brooklyn.IV.

It came about because of daring, indomitable women. Women like Abigail Adams, who brought on the ridicule of her husband John by advising him to “remember the ladies” in our founding documents.

女人半边天的英语作文Women as Half of the Sky。
In the vast canvas of human history, women have always played a pivotal role, often overshadowed but never diminished. They are the gentle breeze that softens the harshness of life, the resilient root that sustainsfamilies and communities, and the creative force that shapes our world. It is said that women hold up half of the sky, and indeed, their contributions are immeasurable and indispensable.Firstly, women are the bedrock of society. From the cradle to the grave, they nurture and care for those around them with unwavering devotion. Mothers instill values and wisdom in their children, shaping the future generation. Wives and daughters provide emotional support and companionship, strengthening familial bonds. Their selfless love and commitment are the glue that holds society together.Moreover, women are agents of change. They have been at the forefront of social movements, fighting for equality, justice, and human rights. From the Suffragettes who fought for women's suffrage to the activists who advocate for women's empowerment today, women have been instrumental in bringing about positive transformations in society. Their courage and resilience have inspired generations to come.Furthermore, women are creators and innovators.
