高中英语_Unit 4 Earthquakes教学设计学情分析教材分析课后反思
必修一第四单元学情分析经过将近两年的高中学习,学生已经大体感受到了高中英语学习的特点——话题广泛,词汇量大,句式结构复杂,大多注重能力培养。
本单元以Earthquakes为话题,旨在通过单元教学,使学生了解震前、震中、震后的一系列现象及有关地震的知识。
让学生学会自救及保护解救别人,从而做到珍惜生命。
我们学校生源差,学生英语基础较弱,英语学习的兴趣不是很浓厚,对英语语言本身的态度一般都不是很喜欢,学习英语的动机不明确,对学好英语的信心不足,对英语学习的努力程度不够,对英语学习的态度不够端正,英语学习投入的时间和精力较少。
所以,在学习本单元时,还要重视基础知识的落实,从基本的字词句入手,让学生梳理积累掌握。
在上本堂课之前,设计好预习学案,设置好能发挥好学生的主观能动性并且具体好操作的问题,要留给学生充足的做题时间,让学生有效完成。
字词句是建好大厦的基础,所以一定不能忽略这一部分内容。
基础固然重要,但能力更加不能忽视。
我发现学生的能力比较差,在阅读、表达与交流方面有很大的欠缺,所以要重视学生能力的培养。
在落实基础知识之余,要花大力气提升学生的阅读与表达能力。
总体来说,本堂课要“以学生为本”,从各个方面提升学生的英语学习能力。
必修一第四单元效果分析本堂课基本完成了教学目标,梳理积累了基础知识,强调了重点词汇句式结构,深入学习了文章内容,学生加深了对地震知识的认识与了解。
导入部分设计的电影视频起到了很好的效果,学生非常感兴趣,看得非常认真。
本堂课把重点放在了文章内容的理解上,结合内容,进行了针对性训练,学生学得非常专注,效果较好。
特别是电影视频部分,学生非常感兴趣,本堂课展示了震前,震中及震后的一系列现象,明确了重点.理解课文时,因为学生对课文理解不是很熟练,所以进行的较慢,耽误了后面的时间,因此课文复述在课上没有时间进行,只能作为课下作业来处理。
这说明我的课前预设做的还不够好。
以后的教学中,还要进一步加强学情的了解。
人教版高一Unit4Earthquakes说课稿
人教版高一Unit4Earthquakes说课稿Unit 4 Earthquakes说课稿各位老师:大家好!我是XX号考生顾雨,来自河南财经政法大学成功学院。
我今天所说的课题是高中一年级英语上册第4单元Earthquakes。
我说课的内容包括五部分,1.教材内容分析今天我说课的内容是高一英语必修1第4单元Earthquakes,内容主要涉及“中国唐山地震的不眠之夜”“地震后重建的新唐山”“地震的基本知识”“地震中如何自救,救人”,通过本单元学习,掌握如何表达过去的事情,让学生对地震有更多认识,加强自我保护。
2、教学目标分析新课标提出了立体三维教学目标,本课我设计的教学目标如下:1)知识目标:熟悉本课的一些新单词,短语和句型。
语法方面掌握以which,that,who,whose引导的定语从句。
并学会先拟定提纲在写新闻报道的方法。
2)能力目标:训练学生的阅读技巧(略读、寻读等),形成用英语获取信息、处理分析信息的能力。
并鼓励学生开口说英语。
3)情感态度目标:①通过学习激发学生对英语学习的浓厚兴趣;②使学生在领会语言丰富多彩性的同时对地震有更多认识,加强自我保护。
学会在地震中如何自救和救人。
③通过对课文学习的小组讨论等形式,帮助学生养成团结、协作的品质。
3、教学重点、难点:1)教学重点:①让学生熟悉与本话题相关的一些重点单词、短语。
②提高学生的阅读能力,掌握多种阅读方法,如寻读,精读,理解等。
2)教学难点:对阅读中所获取的信息进行加工学习,形成有效的学习策略。
鼓励学生开口说英语。
高一年级的学生已经在初中阶段的英语学习中,已经积累了一定的词汇基础,并掌握了一些简单的学习策略和技巧,具有初步的英语听说读写能力。
但学生的英语水平参差不齐,教学既要进一步培养尖子的学习能力又要保证能力稍弱的学生能听懂,调动他们的积极性,使他们愿意学,在学习的过程中享受到乐趣。
虽然对英语有一定的兴趣但其学习主动性仍有待提高,未能积极主动地通过其他渠道获取信息,自主学习、探究学习的能力还有待于提高。

四川省射洪县射洪中学高一英语人教版必修1 Unit4《Earhquakes》Period 5 Using Language学案
四川省射洪县射洪中学高一英语《 Unit 4 Earthquakes Period5 Using Language》学案从容说课This is the fifth teaching period of this unit. The teacher can first check the homework and review what they learned in the last lesson. Some sentences which contain attributive clauses should be translated for revision.The emphasis of this period is laid on developing the students’ writing ability. This is a best way to test if the students have mastered what they have learned. The task Reading and speaking on Page 30 includes two parts:The first part including 1-2 gives students practice in writing a short acceptance speech. Step 2 clearly outlines what students should include in their speeches. Be sure to have students consider who their audience is and how they choose their words and manner of speaking. This part is a bit challenging for students, but very practical. It requires students to put what they have learned into daily use, which is the real purpose of language learning. The teacher should instruct students in order to make it sound formal. The second part, that is, Step 3 gives students practice in discussing in groups what had to be done to rebuild a city after an earthquake. Students should have their discussion after looking at the design of the new Tangshan stamps.As to the part Reading and writing on Pages 31-32, the teacher should first get the students to read the brief description about how to write a newspaper story and then have them compare a newspaper story to a short story. Explain to students that a newspaper needs a headline to attract the reader’s attention since the reader may not have bought the newspaper before they read the headline. Newspaper stories and short stories are organized very differently. Usually a short story begins with small details and includes big details later. A newspaper story does just the opposite. Both kinds of stories use paragraphs with main ideas. The point-of-view in a good newspaper story is objective(i. e. it has no point-of-view)while a short story is subjective(i. e. has a point-of-view). A newspaper story has no conclusion; a short story generally does. After understanding all the above, students are required to prepare the outline for a short newspaper story for China Daily. Writing is a higher stage of language learning. The teacher should frequently give students some assignments of writing. Only in this way, can students use what they have learned more freely.教学重点Doevelop the students’ writing ability by writing a speech and preparing the outline for a short newspaper story for China Daily.教学难点Get the students to learn how to write a good speech and a good newspaper story.教学方法1.

四川省射洪县射洪中学高一英语《 Unit 4 Earthquakes Period 4Listening》学案从容说课This is the fourth teaching period of this unit. As usual, the teacher will first get the students to review what they learned in the last period, and then lead in the new lesson.The emphasis o f this period should be placed on developing students’ listening ability. Listening on Page 62 in the Workbook provides many facts and describes cause and effect relationships. The teacher can lead in the topic by discussing some questions, such as “Why do earthquakes happen? ”“Can we avoid or at least reduce the loss caused by earthquakes? ”, and so on. First, let the students guess the listening text may be about. Play the tape for the first time for students to listen and decide whether their guessing is right. Second, ask them to listen for the second time to tell whether the sentences in Exercise 1 are true or false. Third, let them listen again to answer the questions and complete the table in Exercise 2. While they are listening, the teacher should pause and repeat the key sentences to help students understand. When checking the answers, explain some difficult listening points if necessary. In the end, show them the listening text and let them read and retell it. This step can help students understand and grasp the listening material far further.As to the parts Listening task on Page 66 in the Workbook and Listening on Page 31 in the Textbook, the teaching procedure can be approximately the same as the above.Perhaps some students will find it hard to listen and understand listening materials. Encourage them not to give up. The more they listen to English, the easier it becomes.教学重点1. Develop the students’ listening ability.2. Let the students know the cause of earthquakes and ways of reducing losses earthquakes bring about.教学难点Get the students to listen and understand different listening materials.教学方法1. Task-based listening2. Cooperative learning3. Discussing教具准备A tape recorder and other normal teaching tools三维目标Knowledge aims:1. Get the students to learn some useful new words and expressions.2. Get the students to know about the basic knowledge of earthquakes the listening materials refer to.Ability aims:1. Enable students to catch and understand the listening materials.2. Develop the students’ ability to get special information and take notes while listening.3. Get the students to learn how to make an earthquake plan.Emotional aim:Get the students to learn more about basic knowledge of earthquakes so as to know how to reduce losses of earthquakes and how to protect oneself and help others in earthquakes.教学过程设计方案(一)→Step 1 Revision1. Check the homework exercises.2. Ask some students to make sentences with attributive clauses.→Step 2 Warming upTell the students:As we all know, earthquakes are disasters to everyone. But why do earthquakes happen? Can we avoid or at least reduce the loss caused by earthquakes? Can we foretell earthquakes? Now we will do some listening and the listening text will tell us the answers.→Step 3 Listening(on Page 62 in the Workbook)1. Look through the part Listening on Page 62 and guess what the listening material may be about. Then listen to the tape for the first time to see whether their guessing is right or not.(This listening material is about the cause of earthquakes and how we can reduce losses from them. )2. Read the following statements and listen to the tape for the second time. Then decide whether they are true or false.1)It is believed that on the surface of the earth are a number of plates.2)The plates are always moving.3)If the plates stop moving, there is an earthquake.4)If the plates move, there is an earthquake.5)Wherever you live, you are in an earthquake area.6)China has two plates pushing on her and they make mountains and earthquakes.Check the answers and try to correct the statements which are false.3. Listen to the tape again and then answer the questions and complete the following sentences.Part 1:1)Why do earthquakes happen?2)Why do California, China and Japan have a lot of earthquakes?Part 2:1)Do not built______________.2)Make sure you build______________.3)You must______________._____________ buildings will fall down and_____________ ones may______________.A few minutes later, check the answers with the whole class.4. Discuss this question in small groups: Why do some earthquakes kill more people than others?5. Reading and retellingShow the students the listening text and let them read it. Then ask them to retell the cause of earthquakes and the ways of reducing losses from earthquakes.LISTENING TEXTWhy do earthquakes happen? Scientists explain that the outside of the earth is made of a number of different plates. At San Francisco, the Pacific plate which is moving towards the northwest meets the North American plate. The Pacific plate is moving very slowly—at 5. 3 centimeters a year. Sometimes these two plates stop and do not move for years. Then suddenly, they jump and an earthquake is felt. As a result of the movement of these plates, California has always had a lot of earthquakes. When the 1906 earthquake happened, the Pacific plate jumped 5-6 meters to the north.China also has an unlucky place on the earth. The Pacific plate is also pushing on China from the east as the plate moves west. Likewise, the Indian plate is pushing on China from the southwest as that plate moves northeast. The same power that produced the great Himalayan Mountains now causes earthquakes in China.We cannot stop earthquakes, but we can do things to make sure they do not destroy whole cities. First, it is not a good idea to build houses along the lines where two of the earth’s plates join together. Second, if you think there may be an earthquake, it is better to build houses on rock than on sand. Third, you must make the houses as strong as possible. Weak buildings will fall down in an earthquake, but strong ones may stay up.→Step 4 Listening task(on Page 66 in the Workbook)Turn to Page 66. Look at the pictures and discuss what the might have learned.1. In four let the students discuss what would be the best way to protect oneself if there was an earthquake.2. Ask one member of the group to give their ideas to the class.3. Let the class evaluate each group’s idea and see if they agree. If they do, write the idea on the board. Collect the ideas all the groups have contributed.4. Ask the students to choose the three that they think are the most useful if an earthquake comes.5. Listen to the tape for the first time and see if the ideas on the tape are the same. Discuss why the plans on the tape are different from the ones suggested by the class.6. Now make the earthquake plan. Then listen to the tape for the second time to improve the earthquake plan.My Earthquake Plan1st thing I must do:I must drop to the floor and cover my head and neck with my arms.2nd thing I must do:Make sure I hide under something like a table to protect myself from things falling on top of me.3rd thing I must do:I must hold onto the furniture so it doesn’t move away from me during the earthquake.7. Listen to the tape a third time and then write down any other advice that you think is useful.My Earthquake AdviceIf you are outside, you should keep away from power lines, trees, signs, cars and buildings.If you are in the living room, you should make sure that the bookcases are fastened to the wall and the TV set is tied to a table so that they can’t move.If you are in the house alone, you should ring a family friend to tell them where you are and collect your personal earthquake bag.8. Read the listening text and make it more clear what to do during an earthquake.LISTENING TEXTPRACTICE AND PREPARESince the San Francisco earthquake, all children in California have been taught what to do during an earthquake.Teacher:Now, students, do you remember what you have to do before the earthquake comes?S1:Yes. We must make an earthquake plan.T:Good and w hat’s that?S2:It’s a list of things you should do if an earthquake comes. It should tell us what to do, where to be safe and who to contact.T:Right. So what are these things?S1:What we must do when the earthquake comes is “drop, cover and hold”.T:What does that mean?S2:We must drop to the floor and protect our head and neck with our arms. Then we must cover ourselves by hiding under some furniture like a table. That will protect us from things falling on top of us. Finally we must hold onto the furniture so it doesn’t move away from us during the earthquake.T:Well done. That’s fine. You’ll be safe in the classroom but what if you’re outside?S1:To be safe, you must move to an open space. Keep away from power lines, trees, signs, cars and buildings.T:E xcellent. You’ve remembered well. Now where can you be safe if you’re in the living room where books and the television are kept?S2:If you are careful you’ll already have fastened the bookcases to the wall. You should also have tied the television to a ta ble so it can’t move. Nobody wants to be killed by their own furniture.T:Quite right. What must we remember to do if we’re in the house alone when the earthquake starts?S2:I know. We must ring a family friend to tell them where we are. We must also collect our personal earthquake bag and go to the emergency shelter if there is one near our house.T:OK. So for your homework I want you to think about what you might put into the bag. We’ll discuss tomorrow.→Step 5 Listening(on Page 31 in Using language)1. Tell the students: We are going to listen to a story told by a man who wasa survivor of the great San Francisco earthquake of 1906.2. Go through the sentences in Exercise 2, then listen to the tape for the first time, and try to tell whether the statements are true or false.The teacher plays the tape for the students to listen and finish the task. After listening, the teacher checks the answers with the class.3. Go through the questions in Exercise 3, then listen to the tape for the second time and answer the questions.After listening, the teacher asks some students to answer the questions and checks the answers with the whole class.4. Tell the students: While listening to the tape, you should not only pay attention to the contents, but also the pronunciation and intonation. The sentences in Exercise 4 show us the sequence. I will play the tape again, and you should pay attention to liaison and incomplete explosion in these sentences. Then practice reading them aloud.5. Reading and retellingShow the students the listening text and let them read it. Then ask them to retell it.LISTENING TEXTI awoke as I was thrown from my bed. When I tried to walk, the floor shook so that I fell. I grabbed my clothing and hurried downstairs. Suddenly the lights went out, and everyone rushed for the door. Outside I saw things I never want to see again. It was daytime. The air was filled with falling rocks. People around me were getting buried under buildings that were crashing down. Other huge buildings were shaking. Every moment there were terrible sounds. I asked a man standing next to me what happened. Before he could answer, hundreds of bricks fell on him and he was killed. All around me were great fires. As I ran people everywhere were crying and calling for help.I thought the end of the world had come! Then I met a man who knew the way to a boat, and we ran in its direction. Men, women and children were trying to dig themselves out of the ruins. Thousands of people, crazy with worry, were running down the street and every minute someone was hit by falling bricks. In some places, the streets had cracked and opened. Huge holes were all around me. I saw many frightened cows rush up Market Street and drop into a great crack in the earth. How I reached the boat I cannot say. Some people even tore the clothes from the backs of others as they tried to get into the boat. Later, the survivors searched for water they could drink. People slept on the streets and hills away from the fires, which made the night bright as day. Soldiers kept water from the crowds to give to the rescue workers. The next day the soldiers found more water and some bread to give to those still alive.→Step 6 Homework1. Finish off the Workbook exercises.2.

Pre-reading1.Talking and sharingWhat are the signs of an earthquake? (e.g. Cows, pigs and dogs become too nervous too eat. The mice will run out of the fields looking for places to hide. The water in the wells will rise and fall. Walls of the wells in village will have deep cracks. There will be bright light in the sky….)2. Imaging and sharingImagine there is an earthquake now, your home begins to shake and you must leave it right away. You have time to take only one thing. What will you take? Why? III. Reading1.

You should pay attention to the first sentences of each paragraph. In what order is the text written? (The text is written in time order. The general idea is the mixture of the first sentences of each paragraph, that is, the text tells us something that happened before the earthquake, during the earthquake and after the earthquake.)2. Reading an d underliningNext you are to read and underline all the useful expressions or collocations in the passage. Copy them in your notebook after class as homework. Collocations fro m A NIGHT THE EARTH DIDN’T SLEEPa smelly gas, come out of, in the farmyards, too nervous to eat, run out of,for place to hide, water pipes, think little of sth., as usual, it seemed tat anend, one hundred kilometers away, one-third, eight kilometers long, th meterswide, cut across, in ruins, be injury, the number of, reach more than 400, everywhere, everything was destroyed, be gone, blow away, sth. be not safetens of thousands of, give milk, half a million, instead of, be shocked, lthat afternoon,be trapped under the ruins, fall down, all…is/was not…,hun dreds of thousof,dig out, the dead, to the north of, coal mines, built shelters, fresh wat3.

Answers: 1, 3, 4, 5 are easy to answer.2. Maybe at that time people didn’t have knowledge of an earthqu6. The students have their own answers.4. Discussing writing styleAs you have understood the general idea of the text, I still put more questionsto you.1.From whose point of view are events described? How do you know? (Awriterwho didn’t see the quake uses the third person “they” when he writes.)2.Why do you think the writer chose to express her feelings about the quakerather than simply report what happened? (Although the writer was notthere he felt sad for the people of Tang Shan. He knows that giving somefeelings will make the read ing more interesting.)3.Why is the title “A NIGHT THE EARTH D I DN’T SLEEP”? (As usual, nightis the time to sleep, and night should be quiet and safe. But that nighteverything changed. The writer used it as a title to show how terribleand how unusual that night is.)5. Reading and understanding difficult sentences.If you have some difficult sentences to understand, come to me for help.IV. Closing down Closing down by doing exercisesNow please do the comprehending Exercises 1, 2 and 3 on page 27.Closing down by discussingBy now you’ve known that earthquakes are terrible natural disasters andthat China is unlucky enough to have a lot of them. Now imagine that yourgroup lives in the city that has a lot of earthquakes, what should youdo during an earthquake?

DisasterJuly 6,1944,was a day of nightmare(噩梦) that I will never forget.That afternoon when I was making up my face in a dressing tent at the moment,I suddenly heard someone run past shouting “Fire! ” Fire was what we circus(马戏团) people most feared for there was a large audience in the tent,including many children.I rushed towards the tent with a bucket but I could do nothing with it since the tent was burning too high and the flames spreading quickly.In the burning tent was a scene of panic(恐慌):people rushed towards the exits,and some even jumped twelve feet from the top rows of the grandstand to the ground outside.Some people,after getting out,tried to re-enter to help their relatives or friends.Yet it was impossible for them to get through the crowd;instead,they blocked the way,I fought at one exit,shouting at the top of my lungs.“Go on! Keep moving!” At every exit,circus people were doing the same thing.In the midst of this scene,the musicians kept on playing until the tent was a fire overhead.City fire equipment finally arrived and put out the fire.All the circus people were safe though some were bruised(撞伤) or burned during the rescue work.The audience,however,were not that lucky.In a panic,they all tried to use the regular exits through which they had entered the rent.As a result,168 people had died in the fire ─the worst circus disaster in history.。

本单元的话题是“地震基础知识(basic knowledge about earthquakes)”和“遇到灾难时如何自救以及帮助别人(how to protect oneself and help others in disasters)”。
具体涉及地震的成因、预兆、地震造成的损失、地震时的应急救生以及震后的救援等内容。
语言知识和语言技能等各项语言活动都是围绕这些话题展开的。
为了围绕话题开展听、说、读、写活动,本单元安排了八个部分:“热身(Warming Up)”“读前(Pre-reading)”“阅读(Reading)”“理解(Comprehending)”“语言学习(Learning about Language)”“语言运用(Using Language)”“小结(Summing Up)”和“学习建议(Learning Tip)”。
“热身(Warming Up)”部分通过两张图片引出话题“一旦大地震发生,将会造成怎样的危害?”,为本单元的主题作了“热身活动”。
“读前(Pre-reading)”部分设置了两个开放性的问题,要求学生描述、讨论与地震有关的话题。
目的是增加学生的生活常识,提高他们的应变能力。
这部分为接下来的阅读作了很好的铺垫。
学生可通过讨论,参阅有关地震的书籍,并运用一些生活常识来回答这两个问题。
“阅读(Reading)”部分是一篇新闻报道,详细介绍了1976年唐山大地震前的预兆、地震造成的城市建筑和人畜损失以及震后人们勇敢面对现实并及时实施抢救和重建工作的情况。
文中关于地震的词汇较多,教师可在课前布置学生查找新唐山的中英文资料和与地震相关的词汇;文中还提及了很多孩子失去双亲成为孤儿,矿工在地震中的遭遇,救护人员和解放军官兵不顾自身安危奋力抢险的事迹,灾难无情人有情,感人至深。
教师可将这些作为素材,设计多种任务,展开课堂教学活动。
另外文中还出现了大量的定语从句,这对学生的语言阅读能力提出了更高的要求。
在阅读教学中教师还可指导学生通过各种渠道如报纸、杂志、图书馆和网络等资源查找有关唐山的资料,使学生进一步了解唐山大地震和如今的唐山,形成对比和强烈的震撼,从而更好地了解学习唐山人民勇敢面对自然灾害,积极进行灾后重建的精神。
最后,通过对文章的学习,了解新闻的特点,为后面的写作作准备。
重点词汇和语法的学习可结合文章进行,并配以适当的练习。
“理解(Comprehending)”部分包括五个练习:练习1要求连接句子的正确部分;练习2要求列出唐山地震中发生的事情和时间;练习3要求写出文章的段落大意,并概括文章大意;练习4要求学生用自己的话解释文章标题;练习5要求学生就课文某一段落作采访活动。
主要目的是为了帮助学生更好地理解“阅读(Reading)”部分的文章,尤其是练习3更突出了培养学生整体把握文章的能力。
“语言学习(Learning about Language)”部分涉及本单元的重点词汇和主要语法项目。
词汇部分设计了4个练习:练习1是从阅读材料中为下面的每一项释义找到正确的单词或短语;练习2要求学生从阅读文章中找出尽量多的单词来分类描绘地震;练习3是用课文中的一些单词完成段落;练习4要求完成句子,考查as if的用法。
这部分的目的是要求学生在整体把握文章的基础上,掌握重点词汇的词义及使用,注重培养学生运用上下文猜测词义的能力。
语法项目是定语从句,设计了三个练习:练习1要求找出阅读文章中带定语从句的句子;练习2要求用that, which, who和whose填空完成句子、翻译成汉语并作比较;练习3要求通过游戏的形式造句并用定语从句扩展这些句子。
该部分主要通过阅读和句型练习帮助学生学习由that, which, who和whose引导的定语从句,培养学生自主学习的能力。
“语言运用(Using Language)”部分分“读和说(Reading and speaking)”、“听力(Listening)”和“读和写作(Reading and writing)”三个步骤:“读和说(Reading and speaking)”训练提供了一封邀请函,要求学生阅读后写一篇在地震纪念公园落成仪式上的演讲稿,接着观察新唐山纪念邮票然后以小组的形式讨论地震后城市重建的问题,主要培养学生在实际生活中运用英语的能力。
在随后的“听力”(Listening)部分里,一位美国人以第一人称讲述了他在1906年旧金山大地震中的可怕经历,要求学生根据听力材料进行正误判断和回答问题,旨在培养学生学会获取听力材料中的细节要点的能力,并通过听来模仿标准的语音和语调,同时让学生了解人们在自然灾害中的经历和感受。
“读和写(Reading and writing)”部分要求学生先阅读一篇新闻故事,然后为报纸写一篇新闻报道,描写家乡的一件不同寻常的事件,旨在培养学生按照规范的步骤进行写作,如选择适当的标题、组织语言、清晰地表达等,学会拟定写作提纲。
“小结(Summing Up)”部分帮助学生整理、巩固本单元所学到的知识,其中包括学到的关于地震的知识、有用的动词、名词、表达方式和新的语法项目。
一个单元学完后,鼓励学生进行一番归纳和总结是非常有用的,这样可以起到事半功倍的效果。
“学习建议(Learning Tip)”部分要求学生重视听的技能的训练,并就听英语方面给出了一些建议,建议学生多听广播或多看电视里的英语节目。
多听不仅能够提高听力水平,还能够帮助学生改善语音、语调,从而提高说的能力。
因此,听不仅是吸收信息的重要渠道,也是学好英语的重要手段之一。
教师可鼓励学生常听英文广播或电视节目,以扩大视野和增加英语的词汇量。
