One of the signs of a well-dressed man in European and American culture is clean and polished shoes. Polished shoes communicate selfrespect and an awareness of proper dress codes. People notice how you dress and evaluate your place in society by such things as how you care for your shoes dirty or scuffed shoes communicate a careless attitude and poor training. Dress codes are so important in Western culture that there are popular books for sale which relate scientific studies of the effect of colors, and clothing styles upon other people. One wellknown book is entitled dress for success.Reading skills:Extracting main ideas: ask students to give one sentence in each paragraph which best expresses its main point.Para 1. in winter the streets in the county were covered with snow but it was warmer i london.

In winter snow fell heavily in the countryside carrington had o walk every morning to the station through deep snow and often got his hsoes dirty and wet. As he was a man who took great care with his appearance, the thought of having to walk about London and sit in the office the whole day in those dirty shoes troubled....CommentsThe author begins his story by stressing the fact that Mr. Carrington always takes care over his appearance. In this way he builds the reader’s curiosity as to what will happen. The story ends in a humorous way. The idea that Mr Carrinton will have to walk about in his stocking feet is quite funy. The embrrassment will be great as people look at him with curiosity and amusement. Initiate a discussion about the following topics.1.nowadays many people commute from home to work. How do you like commuting?2.have ou ever had he humorous but embarrassing experience related to clothing?3.do you feel it si proper to judge someone by what he wrs?

It is the capital of theUnited Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. The city was founded about 43 AD, when the armies of the Roman Empire conquered Britain.2.The English policeman has several nicknames but the most frequently used are ―copper’ and―bobby‖. The frist name comes from the verb to ―cop‖, meaning to ―take‖ or ―capture‖, and the second comes from the first name of Sir Robert Peel who reorganized the London police force.Clues to Mrs. Frobisher’s problems.Health problems: she had a bad leg and had to walk with the help of a stick.Financial problems: she was not well-off. She could not afford the entrance tickets to parks; she wore a pair of old shoes and longed for a good pair; it was getting colder but she had not enough clothes to warm herself.Emotional problems: she felt lonely and depressed. She was reluctant to be out of her flat; her days were long and dull; she had no interest in life.Ask the students to use four adjectives to describe what Mrs. Frobisher thought of herself. (Old, poor, sick, and useless)How did mrs. Frobisher change her view about herself?(she helped the policemen to catch the criminal. This caused her to look at herself with fresh eyes; she was not as useless as she used to think.)Some proverbs for the students to remember.1.If you wish good advice, consult an old man.2.Years know more than books.3.The best wine comes out of an old vessel.4.Never too old to learn.5.As the old cock crows, so crows the young.6.An old man never wants a tale to tell.7.You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.CommentsOld people sometimes feel useless. The story ends with the statement: ― i’ m not as useless as i used to think,‖Mrs, Frobisher told herself. What value is an old person to society? What contributions can they make to enrich the lives of others around them? Is the feeling of ― being useless‖ something the old have decided about themselves or is it reality? Ask the students to tell of an old person who greatly influenced them.Sentences for the students to use as models(Line 18, 46, 77, 82, 97, 137)Text 8 Travelling LightCInformation related to the text:Travel: humans have travelled ever since they first appeared on the earth. I primitive times they did not travel for pleasure but to find new places where their herds could feed, or to escape fro unfriendly neighbours, or to find more favourable climates. They travelled on foot and their journeys were long, tiring, and full of dangers. Being wise and inventive, human beings soon discovered easier ways of travelling. They rode on the backs of horses and donkeys; they made canoes out of tree trunks to travel across water. Later, they travelled, not from necessity, but for fun and excitement of seeing and experiencing new things.T-shirt: for many years, t-shirts wre simple short-sleeved undershirts for men and boys. T-shirts came in only one color—white. And since they were worn under sweaters or shirts, they were generally not seen. Although t-shirts are now available in a wide variety of bright materials and styles, the most popular kind is the traditional cotton version, which resembles the old t-shirt but with a slogan or picture printed on it. Such t-shirts may bear a single word, a popular phrase, pictures of rock musicians, or an advertisement. With the increasing popularity of tshirts, new ideas to beautify them appear all the time.Warm up questions:1.for what purposes do people travel nowadays?(for pleasure or recreation; for health reasons; to visit friends and relatives; on business)2.what are the advantages of travelling?(to meet new people, make new friends and share new experiences with them; to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the world and the wonders of mankind; to learn about the local customs and cultures; to widen one’s horizon and make one more openminded.)Some fmiliar proverbs related to travelling.1.Travel broadens the mind.2.He that travels far, knows much.3.He who does not travel will not know the value of men.4.Noting is so necessary for travellers as languages.5.The heaviest baggage for a traveller is an empty purse.A good title is usually short but suggests a lot. Ask the students to paraphrase the title of this text in simple Englsih.(it is best to take as little as possible for your trip.)Questions to grasp the main idea.1.what is the simple rule you have to follow while packing for your trip (pack light)2.what are the four tips given by the writer in this text?(make a list of what you need duringyour trip.Prepre and take what is essential for everyday use.Bring only the most suitable and necessary clothes and shoes for your trip.Make sure all your possessions are well packed in your simple, light bag.)江西外语外贸职业学院教案备课纸(2)主任审阅授课教师年月日年月日授课内容Text 10 CowboysInformation related to the text:A cowboy is a hired hand, especially in the western united states, who tends cattle and performs many of his duties on horseback. The American cowboy, who was the product of the opening up of the vast central plains of the US after the Civil War, has become a legendary folk hero, celebrated in many films and novels....Warm- up questions:1.what is a cowboy?(a man who herds cattle on horseback)2.what does a typical cowboy look like?(He wears a broad-trimmed hat, a brithtly coloured kerchief around his neck, blue jeans and high-heeled riding boots.)3.what kind of life did a cowboy lead?(he moved from place to place on horseback, tending large herds of cattle. He had to battle with the bad weather, wild animals and sometimes with Indians. So his life was full of hardships and adventures.)The main idea of the text:1.The cattle ahd to be driven to twon as there were no buyers on the ranges and no lorries orrailways to carry the meat to towns if the cattle were killed there.2.the jorney to the market often took many weeks and it was full of dangers.3.the cowboys lived a very hard life on the trail. They had to put up with all kinds of dangers.4.railways changed coboys’ way of life. They provided a quicker and more efficient means ofbinging cattle to town.Sentences for the students to use as models:1.it was no good killing them on the ranges...2.... perhaps a rain storm caused a river to flood so that the herd could not cross...3.the cows would become so frightened or wild that they would rush away before the mencould stop them.4.... it might take days to round up the cattle after they had stampeded.Summary of the text : This text presents us one aspect of the life cowboys lived- getting the cows form ranges to the market. The jorney was long and dangerous: cows might fall sick and die: the weather was bad and changeable; Indians sometimes attacked; and the greatest danger was that the cows might stampede and cowboys would be hurt or even killed if such a thing took place. So the cowboys lied a very hard life on the journey. When railways were built, they took the place of cowboys. They took the cowherd to the amrket very quickly, and saved the cowboys a long, insecure journey to town.Text 11 The Garden of EdenInformation related to the text:Bible: the bible, a collection of sacred books of Judaism and Christianity, consists of the Old Testament and the New Testament. The old Testament was originally written in Hevrew and later it was translated into Greek and Latin. The Old Testament is traditionally divided into three parts: the law, the prophets and the writings.The bible is not only a sacred book, it is also important literature and a source of literary inspirations.

Socrates was one of the wisest and bravest teachers the world has ever known. He was famous for teaching by questioning his listeners, and showing them how inadequate their answers were. Because of his unusual teaching methods, unorthodox views on religion, and disregard of public opinion, he made enemies among influential Athenians. He was arrested and brought to trial on the charge of corrupting the youth and showing disrespect for religious tradtitions. He was sentenced to death.

His compositions and music journal greatly influenced the music of his time. Though he wrote orchestral and chamber music, he best expressed his ardent romanticism in his piano works and songs. Most of the latter were composed in 1840. and many of his best known piano pieces were written for his wife, the pianist Clara schumann.Concerto: concerto is a musical composition for one or more solo instruments supported by an orchestra. The three-movement orchestral form ws elaborated by German compsoser Jojann sebastian bach....As a warm-up, the teacher may begin by asking the students if they are interested in classical music and then ask them, if they are, to name some great composers.This story is written with a touch of humour, built on a series of misunderstandings on the part of the author because of his eagerness to help his friend enjoy music. Ask the students to find examples in the text which reflect the misunderstnadings.1.he took the different expression on his friend’s face, the bright eyes and the smile for theeffect that the music had on him; so he came to the conclusion that ― he had been listening!‖2.when he found Fred holding he recod in his big hands, he thought his friend appreciated therecord. This discovery made hime too pleased to tell hime to be careful aobut the record.3.when he asked Fred if he enjoyed it, he meant if Fred enjoyed the music. Fred’s affirmativeanswer created another misunderstanding on the part of the author. This misunderstanding led him to offer the record to Fred.This story has a surprise ending: the present Fred gave the author turned out to be made out of the recor. Ask the students if they expect such an dending as they read the story, and then see how many examples of foreshadowing they can find in the text to justify their answer.1.the author spent hours pointing out the beauties of a particular piece, but all the time Fredwas gazing at the little black statue of monkey on the mantelpiece and hadn’t been listening to a word the wuthor said.2.fred once told the author that he would loe to make a copy of the little monkey some day.3.the different expression on his face, the bright eyes and the smile after Fred saw the recordimply that he had discovered something: the record was the very thing he could use to reproduce the statue. When the author offered him the record, he hesitated to take it, after all it ws a precious record and it would be a pity to melt it.Lead a discussion about the following two questions:1.what kind of man is the author?2.how do you think the author felt when he was given the ―present‖?Text 17 The Seven GiftsSynopsis: abt two million years ago, a chage of climate set in, and the world entered a time known as the Ice Age. During this period of time, nearly half the world was covered with ice. So life was extremely hard for the first people. Compared with the animals around them, they were only poor, feeble creatures, unprotected against a bitter climate and a large number of antural enemies. Yet, man survived the dangers of the Ice Age, because he alone was possessor of the seven gifts—his upright posture, his two legs, arms, hands, his vision, his huam brain—the greatest of the seven—and the power of speech.Warm-up questions:1.what are the seven gifts?2.who has the seven gifts?3.what role did the seven gifts play in man’s struggle against the hardships of the Ice Age? The structure of the text:The first part: from the beginnig to para 4---describes the harsh climate of the ice age and man’s disadvantages in this bitter environmet.The second part: from para. 5 to the last para. but one.---the seven gifts and their funcitons in man’s struggle for existence are explained one after another in simple and claear terms.In the last para. The author ends the story by pointing out that it was the seven gifts that made it possible for man to conquer a hostile environment and prosper.Ask the students to retell in simple and clear English the functions of the seven gifts.With the upright posture, early men could see far and wide.With two legs, they could walk long distanc and outwalk any animal.With hands and arms, they could hold things and use tools.With their vision, early men could see in depth and fix their sight on the object.With the human brain, they could remember past experiences and learn from them to plan for the future.With the power of speech, they could communicate in words and pass on wisdom and experience to the next generations.Some rhetoricald devices used in the text.1.Simple but vivid expressionsEg. Line 5, 6, 252.Parallel consturcitons for emphasisEg. Line 19, 26, 79Sentences for the students to use as models1.Nature gave them no warm fur pelts against the cold, no swiftness to escape any enemy, noweapons for fighting.2.they could remember experiences from the past and learn from them for the future.3.although the beasts could also communicate with each other by voice, ...only people couldcommunicate in words.。

泛读教程 I 教案
泛读教程I 教案Unit 1 University Student Life教学目标或要求:1.Students learn how to guess the meaning of new words by reading context.2. By the two articles “On Being a Student” and “Getting the Best value for Time”,the teacher gives students suggestions on how to improve reading skills and how to make good use of time in the university.3. After learning unit one, students should have the basic understanding of suffix and prefix and try to use the word-building knowledge to expand their vocabulary.教学内容(包括基本内容、重点、难点):I. Reading skill: Context Clue to Word MeaningContext means the words or sentences before or after the item you do not know. Context sometimes provides definition clues. Consider: Linguistics, the scientific study of language, is very important for language students. Notice the italicized word is clearly defined. Besides the formal definition, the writer may also give explanation after such punctuation marks as comma, dash or within parentheses.Context sometimes gives example clues. Consider: like horses, human beings have a variety of gaits, they amble, stride, jog and sprint. Notice several examples are given to shed light on the meaning of the italicized word “gait”, a way of way of walking. In the sentences with example clues, the examples are usually signaled by certain words or phrases like such as, including, for example, for instance or to illustrate.Although context clues are useful in discovering the meaning of an unknown word, there are some limitations to this approach. The meaning you get from the context may be vague or general. Sometimes there is too much unfamiliar language to allow you to use the context. While you don’t interrupt your reading to look up new words in a dictionary, you may still want to check your guess if you find that some word is used often, and seems to be an important one in your field. In such cases, mark the unknown words when you are reading, and look them up later.II. Text: University Student LifeStep one: word pretest before going to text On Being a Student.Check the meaning of ten new words: profession, involve, explore, diminish, urge, performance,discipline, sack, linger, awkward.Step two: give students five minutes to scan the text and discuss the following questions: How is your college life different from your high school days? What is your plan to improve your reading skills?Step three: detailed explanation of the text. Being a university student is your profession for at least the next four years and this involves a change of attitude in many ways. First you chose one major subject instead of several subjects because you find it interesting and worth exploring further. Second, you have before you the goal of getting a degree. Another change is the relationship with teachers. You are now active learner instead of passive receiver. Teachers are only coaches and you would not be discouraged if you get back with a poorer mark than you expected and with various criticisms. In order to adapt to all the changes you must put in hours of regular practice every day. Some activities like reading, writing and note-taking, speaking and discussion are basic to studying. Make sure that you are doing these efficiently.III. Vocabulary buildingWord match exercise. Give students three groups of new words and definitions and match the word with the definitions. Some basic knowledge on suffix. Many verbs end in suffix –ize, such as realize, organize, criticize, characterize; many adverbs end in the suffix –ly, such as efficiently, certainly, professionally. If we study carefully, we can save a lot of time memorizing new words.1.How to guess the meaning from context reading2.How to get used to life in the university3.Some ways to enlarge vocabularyAssignments:Should teachers establish personal relationship with their students? Why or why not?Unit 2 Culture Shock教学目标或要求:1. Introduce some information on culture shock2. Enlarge students’ vocabulary3.Do more exercise on skimming and scanning教学内容(包括基本内容、重点、难点):I. Reading skill: context clues to word meaningTry to guess the meaning from context. E.g.When the student meets another miserable person from the same country, he will pour out his unhappy feelings. Together they can complain in their native language.If you are driving across the country or through a city, you can also check the billboards you will see along the roads. They advertise not only products but also coming events and sights to see.Through context reading, we can easily get the meanings of “complain”-say bad words about something and “billboard” – a place to put on notice.II. Word PretestLet students guess the meanings for “acquaintance, symptom, depress, hostility, temporary, inevitable, located, dwelling on”III. TextMaking a Cultural ChangeExplanation of the text: the students who studies in a foreign country leave behind a familiar, loving, comfortable environment.

Those cues or signs include various ways in which we adapt ourselves to the situation of daily life.Assignments1.What kind of people adjust best to foreign cultures?2.Do you have any difficulty in adapting to a new environment of your university?Unit Three Movie教学目标或要求:1.Students learn how to guess the meaning of new words by context clues.2.By the two articles “How Do the Movie Do it?” and “The Man Who MadeMickey Mouse”, the students are suggested to collect som e information about American movies.3.After learning unit three, students should have the basic understanding of suffixand prefix and try to use the word-building knowledge to expand their vocabulary. 教学内容(包括基本内容、重点、难点):I.

II.Text: How Do the Movies Do it?Step one: word pretest. Check the meaning of eight new words: crash, flood, apply to, absolutely, flame, instantly, deviceStep two: give students five minutes to scan the text and discuss the following questions: What kind of movie is your favorite? Do you think to become an actor or actress is a good job for young people?Step three: detailed explanation of the text. Have you ever seen a movie in which a building was burned down or a bridge was destroyed? Have you seen films in which a train crashed or a ship sank into the ocean? If so, you may have wondered how these things would happen without harming the people in the film. The man is called special effect man. In a scene for one movie there was a big glass bowl filled with water in which the fish were swimming. The director of the movie wanted the fish to stop swimming suddenly when they seemed to stare at an actor. Then the director wanted the fish stop staring and swam away. But fish cannot be ordered to do anything. It was quite a problem. At last controlling the fish through a harmless use of electricity solved the problem. As in other parts of movie making, there are those who have developed particular skill in creating certain kinds of effects. All this requires training, skill, and experience. It also adds a great deal to the expense of producing the film. It helps explain why so many movies are very expensive to make.III. Vocabulary buildingWord match exercise.
