Part 2 教学反思
本节课是根据学生的学情—虽然在高一时写过类似文章，但是所写文章的词汇和句式比较单一和贫乏，为了帮助学生尽可能多地掌握介绍两个国家或城市的对比文章中常使用的好词和好句，使学生对如何写好介绍国家或城市的文章的能力，以及构思、点评和修改自己和他人文章的能力有不同程度的提高而进行的设计。

不足之处为学生收集资料的能力欠缺，今后应加强指导。

Part 3 专家点评
这是一节写作课，基本上完成了老师课前预设的教学目标。

学生能够通过分析自己家乡——天津和深圳的异同，学生学会如何将两个事物进行比较，从哪些方面比较两所城市。

同时完型填空的练习使学生对城市之间比较的相关词汇和短语进一步加深印象，从而为学生自己完成一篇城市间比较的文章做好铺垫。

在此基础上，教师鼓励学生多利用连词是文章连贯，这意味着学生的任务难度被提高了，激发了学生的学习兴趣，尤其是基础比较好的学校的学生。
