在这个纪念碑的下方有阶梯, 许多游人在此落座,因为它是打量白金汉宫的最正确位置。

Who rules the country?A. The QueenB. The Prime MinisterC. Both( by the way who is the present Queen and Minister of the UN? //// Elizabeth & Blair )(it may appear to an outsider that the Queen has an important role in ruling the country. However, this is not so.

And Now let’s learn more about this in the first reading passage. (p9) ReadingI. Fast reading1. Read the text quickly and find the main idea of each paragraph (Maybe there is a topic sentence in each paragraph)Para 1 Why people use different words to describe the four countries (history reason)states the topic to be examined in reading. (引起下文) leads in the textPara2 How is Wales linked to England.

Lets try to divide the passage into three parts and write down the main idea of each part.Part 1(Para1-4): It explains why and how the four countries (….) united/developed as a big one. They have similarities and differences as well.Part 2 (5): It shows how England is divided into three zones. And the characteristic of each part. Part 3 (6): It explains why London became the treasure of all and how it is influenced by some invaders. (How great it is / why London is ca ll “the greatest historical treasure of all” / the cultural importance of London)3. Get through the passage within 2 minutes Find out the main idea of the whole text together with your partner.This passage introduces how four counties united as the UK. Differences exist in different parts of the United Kingdom. They each have their own international football or rugby team as well as their own educational and legal systems. But even so they are part of one big country---- the United Kingdom. And then the passage tells us something about one of the most important country ---- England and also the greatest historical city ----LondonPay attention to the title of the passage. Think it over why does the author use such a title? Is that suitable? If not, ca n you give us a better one? Let’s have a discussion in groups of four:A. The United KingdomB. A Brief Introduction of UKC. Puzzles in GeographyD. How Did the UK Come into BeingThere is no right or wrong answers to the question.(Different titles serve different purposes: Some can sum up the main idea of the test; others just arouse the interest of the readers; ….This title is just used to lead in the passage and draw the readers attention of interests.)----- Are you from England ?---- No, I come from Scotland.In my own opinion, this title isn’t a bad one. But maybe your answers are better than the title of the passageOk, so much for the discussion and the title, let’s come to the details of the passage.II. Careful reading1. Read the passage and judge the following statements true or false.1. Wales was linked to England in 15th century AD. (F/ 13th)2. When King James of England became King of Scotland and Wales as well, the three countries united peacefully. (F/ When King James o f Scotland became King of England…)3. The four countries work together in all areas. (F/ some areas; )4. Most of the population settled in the South, but most of the large industrial cities in the Midlands and North of England (T)5. If you want to find out more about British history and culture, you have to go to the big cities.(F / go to the older and smaller towns first built by the Romans. )6. London is a great cultural and historical city. (T)III. Further understanding of the text1. Read the passage again and let’s do some further understanding of the passage.1. The Union Jack flag unites the three flags of the three countries in the United Kingdom. Which country is left out? And why? (p2)(Wales. Because Wales is usually considered to be part of England. )2. When two teams, for example one is the Chinese football team and the other Scottish football team, compete in the World Cup, which team do you think the funs from England will support? (Strange enough, they will support our Chinese team!)3. Which group of invaders did not leave any evidence in London?The Vinkings. (They influenced the vocabulary and place names of the North. But the other three invaders left sth. in London. )4. What is the relationship between the Republic of Ireland and the UK?Two independent countries.5. Can you work out why London is the capital of England, Great Britain and the UK?Because of its importance in transportation, cultural, economic, politic and history.6. Look at the language, the writing style of this passage. Is it formal or informal? Is it a personal opinion or presented factually? Are there any point of view or personal opinions?Formal. In fact this reading is written to explain facts. It is composed in the third person and in a plain, prose style. So it expresses no point of view or personal opinions.说明文expository writing2. Read Paragraph 5 and divide England into three parts in the map (P11)North: Leeds (立兹), York(约克), Sheffield(设菲尔德), Manchester(曼彻斯特)Midlands: Coventry考文垂Birmingham 伯明翰South: Reading, London, Brighton, Plymouth 朴里茅斯III. Retelling of the textRead the text again and try to retell the text according to the key words and phrases on the blackboard.different words describe, be linked to, came into being, similarities and differences, be divided into, historical treasure, invadersIV. Long and difficult sentences:1. There is no need to debate any more about why different words are use to describe the four countries: England, Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland. 对于用来描述英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰和北爱尔兰这四个国家的词语,现在已经没有争辩的必要了。
新人教版英语必修五:Unit 2 The United Kingdom
Unit 2The United KingdomSailors used to speak of a “Jack” when they meant a flag which was set near the bow of a sailing ship.The flag showed the country to which the ship belonged.The Union Jack became the flag of Great Britain.Australia's flag has the Union Jack in the top left hand corner together with the stars of the Southern Cross.They have kept this small part of Britain on their flag because their country was first settled by people from Britain.Australia's flag is the same colour as the Union Jack—red,white and blue.The act of joining together is called a “Union”.The Union Jack was the name of the flag made when England,Scotland and Ireland joined together to make one country.It all began in 1707 when England and Scotland joined together to become one nation.A flag was made using two crosses—one for the patron saint (守护神) of each country.The word “patron”means protector.Many centuries before the English had taken St George as their patron saint,his emblem(标志) was a red cross on a white background.The Scottish patron saint was St Andrew.In memory of him,they used a white cross on a blue background.This cross was shaped like the letter “X”.The new flag was a mixture of both flags with two sets of crosses.When Ireland joined England and Scotland in 1800,another cross was added.St Patrick's cross of Ireland was red and also shaped like an “X”.All three flags made up the Union Jack.【词海拾贝】1.bow n.船首2.settle v.殖民;作为移民在殖民地定居3.saint n.圣人4.background n.背景【问题思考】True(T)or False(F):1.The Scottish patron saint was St George.()2.The Union Jack is the flag of
