unit-2-English-around-the-world课文及翻译讲解学习
u n i t-2-E n g l i s h-a r o u n d-t h e-w o r l d课文及翻译the Road to Modern EnglishAt the end of the 16th century, about five to seven million people spoke English. Nearly all of them lived in England. Later in the next century, people from England made voyages to conquer other parts of the world and because of that, English began to be spoken in many other countries. Today, more people speak English as their first, second or a foreign language than ever before.Native English speakers can understand each other even if they don’t speak the same kind of English. Look at this example:British Betty: Would you like to see my flat?American Amy: Yes. I’d like to come up to you apartment.So why has English changed over time? Actually all languages change and develop when cultures meet and communicate with each other. At fist the English spoken in England between about AD 450 and 1150 was very different from the English spoken today. It was base more on German than the English we speak at present. Then gradually between about AD 800 and 1150, English became less like German because those who ruled England spoke first Danish and later French. These new settlers enriched the English language and especially its vocabulary. So by the 1600’s Shakespeare was able to make use of a wider vocabulary than ever before. In 1620 some British settlers moved to America. Later in the 18th century some British people were taken to Australia too. English began to be spoken in both countries.Finally by the 19th century the language was settled. At that time two big changes in English spelling happened: first Samuel Johnson wrote his dictionary and later Noah Webster wrote The American Dictionary of the English language. The latter gave a separate identity to American English spelling.English now is also spoken as a foreign or second language in South Asia. For example, India has a very large number of fluent English speakers because Britain ruled India from 1765 to 1947. During that time English became the language for government and education. English is also spoken in Singapore and Malaysia and countries in Africa such as South Africa. Today the number of people learning English in China is increasing rapidly. In fact, China may havethe largest number of English learners. Will Chinese English develop its own identity? Only time will tell.通向现代英语之路16世纪末期大约有5百万至7百万人说英语,几乎所有这些人都生活在英国。

Period 7 Writing如何写海报Ⅰ.写作策略探究海报的特点之一是有一个明确的标题,它一般是一个论述性的疑问句,如“Why should we learn Englis?h ”“ Why should we do exerc?ise”接着列举理由,最后得出结论。
海报其实就是议论性文体,首先提出问题,接着列举理由进行论述,最后在所列举的理由的基础上,自然地得出结论。
注意列举的理由要与主题有关,且能支持自己的观点,否则降低了论述的力度,不能使人信服,自然就失去了效力。
此外,要注意海报是应用文,应用一般现在时态来表述,因为它没有特定的时间范畴。
再次,要注意语言措辞得当,是以建议性的语气而不是以命令性的语气来表述。
最后得出恰当的结论,使主题得以升华。

Ask students to make a brainstorming map with a partner.Several minutes later, ask a student draws the map on the blackboard.Sample map:→ Step 4 Making a posterFirst ask the students to make guesses about how English can help some aspects of Chinese life, in particular its economy. Then, students work on their poster in pairs. Finally, ask several pairs to present their poster in class for assessment.Sample posterChina ' s Future Lies in Learning EnglishReasons for learning English:World trade is done in English;International organizations(such as the UN)use English;We need contact with the developed Western world to build our country;The developed world uses English in its dealings.Why the Chinese language will not do?Very few people in the West speak Chinese;Chinese is a difficult language to learn;Most businessmen do not have time to learn new languages every time they enter a new international market.So China ' s Future Lies in Learning English→ Step 5 Writing a short passage1.The title is “ Should we learn English? ”2.Show the structure on how to write the passage.1)State your points of view.2)Show the supporting reasons.3)Get a conclusion3.Show the students connecting words which can help them to join the sentences and paragraphs.Illustration:I think. . . , I believe. . . , In my opinion. . . , As far as I am concerned. . .Addition:firstly, secondly, then, besides, at last. . .Contrast:however, but, on the other hand. . .Summary:in short, in a word, therefore, so. . .Sample passage:Should we learn English?Many people all over the world speak English as their second language. It is not too much to say that it has become an international language. So I strongly think we should learn English.Firstly, learning English can make life fun. It enables you to watch American movies, read English books and listen to English songs. Moreover, as English is an international language, you will be able to communicate with foreigners when you are on a trip abroad. Traveling will be more interesting that way.Secondly, it is a good idea to make friends with foreigners. In my opinion, it is the best way to improve your English. In addition, it will be fun and it will expand your view of the world. If you make friends with a native speaker, you can practice your spoken English more often and then you can communicate with people around the world. You can also become familiar with the customs and habits of different cultures.However, there are some people who are afraid to make friends with foreigners because they are not confident of their English. However, many foreigners do not care about grammar. They will get your key words in the sentence and figure out the whole meanings. Therefore, it is unnecessary to be afraid to make friends with them; just go ahead!Learning English helps us meet different people and learn more about their culture, thus facilitating mutual understanding and harmony. Briefly said, English is so useful to us that we should all learn it.→ Step 6 HomeworkWriting task on Page 53 in the workbook. 设计方案(二)→ Step 1 Revision1. Check the homework exercises.2.
