Ⅲ..教材分析與教材重組

1. 教材分析

本單元的中心話題是“Sailing the oceans”,內(nèi)容涉及海洋航行、人類早期的航海技術(shù)、中國歷史上最著名的航海家鄭和、辛巴達的第一次冒險航行等。本單元的語言技能和語言知識都是依據(jù)“航海、發(fā)現(xiàn)探索未知的大陸”這個中心話題設(shè)計的。

1.1 “熱身”(Warming up)部分提出了三個問題:航海家的含義;航海家與探險家的不同之處。看圖對中外歷史上的三個著名人物鄭和、馬可波羅、詹姆斯庫克進行討論,誰是航海家,誰是探險家。通過討論使學生的言語技能和語言知識得到充分運用。

1.2 “讀前”(Pre-reading)部分要求學生看圖回答問題。通過這項任務(wù)的完成,可以激起學生了解早期航海情況的興趣。

1.3“閱讀”(Reading)部分是一篇說明文,用百科全書的形式呈現(xiàn)出的內(nèi)容是讓學生了解在現(xiàn)代化的航海儀器發(fā)明之前人們是怎樣航海的。閱讀的內(nèi)容分為兩部分,首先介紹古代航海者怎樣借助自然環(huán)境的幫助進行航海。然后介紹早期的航海者怎樣利用航海儀器來確定經(jīng)度和緯度。1.4 “理解”(Comprehending)部分設(shè)置了五個練習。這些練習能幫助學生更好地理解閱讀內(nèi)容。這部分的練習1和練習4主要用以消化閱讀的細節(jié)內(nèi)容,只要學生理解了課文,不難回答。練習2、3、5設(shè)置了幾個不同的情景,要求學生利用課文內(nèi)容進行討論與回答。這些練習能幫助學生更好地理解課文內(nèi)容。

1.5 “語言學習”(Learning about Language)部分由詞匯和語法兩部分組成。這個部分的練習主要用來幫助學生進一步學習、鞏固課文中出現(xiàn)的詞語,加深學生對謂語的語法概念,同時也幫助學生了解庫克船長的航海探險經(jīng)歷。

1.6 “語言運用”(Using Language)該部分包括兩項內(nèi)容,對學生進行聽、說、讀、寫的綜合訓練。該部分內(nèi)容緊密結(jié)合了本單元的功能項目“Cause and effect”。

1.7“小結(jié)”(Summing up)部分涉及三個方面:第一項是本單元關(guān)于航海的主題;第二項是學習本單元的收獲;第三項是關(guān)于本單元的語言知識。通過該小結(jié),可以讓學生對本單元的學習有個整的概念。教師可以利用該材料做些拓展性和鞏固性練習設(shè)計。

A navigator explores new routes across the sea.

An explorer discovers new places on land.

A navigator is somebody who finds the position and plots the course of a ship, an aircraft, a car, etc, using maps and instruments. An explorer is somebody who travels into or through a place in order to learn about it. Very often navigators are also explorers.

In history there are four famous voyage explorers in the world, including Zheng He in China, James Cook in England, Christopher Columbus in Spain and Abel Tasman in Holland.

In this unit we’ll talk about Zheng He, James Cook and some other explorers like Marco Polo and Captain Bligh.

這個隊翻盤而險勝。

Step4 Discussion

Discuss these situations in fours and then hold a class discussion.

1. Would you have behaved like the person in the reading and joined Captain Bligh in the open boat or stayed on the “Bounty”? You should have reasons for your choice.

2. At the time that the nineteen men in the boat sailed for Timor they did not know if they would survive or not. What do you think were the most important things they would need to take with them? Who should decide these items? Remember that the boat was already very full with people and could not hold very much more.

3. Many men who wanted to go into the boat were unable to because of the lack of space. If they stayed on the “Bounty” and were caught by the British navy, they should be killed according to the law.

4. What would the students have done to avoid being caught and punished if they had been part of the group who took over the “Bounty”? Would they have gone back to Tahiti or looked for another place to live? Which place would be the safest?

5. After the discussion let students prepare for the speaking exercise and encourage them to make notes of their ideas. Follow this format: Discuss in pairs. Make a list of the ideas.

6. Swap ideas with another pair and resolve differences. Make a new list of the ideas.

7. One member of the group should give the ideas to the class in turn. Other groups can discuss these ideas and evaluate them.

One sample dialogue:

Li Pei (LP), Du Zhou (DZ), Wen Fuqing (WF) and Liu Yongfu (LY) are discussing the journey and Captain’s Bligh’s leadership qualities.

LP: Why are you convinced that this journey shows the greatest navigational skill? I’m sure there must have been others that were as good, if not better!

DZ: Do you know of many other sea voyages of this kind?

WF: Well, there’s that journey by Shackleton from Elephant Island in the Antarctic to get help from another island with a whaling station. He wanted to rescue his men. The weather was terrible and he was in an open boat, too.

LY: How can you think that journey was more difficult? It didn’t last very long. Captain’s Bligh’s journey lasted over forty days, was very hot and they had very little food and water. It was because Captain Bligh was a great leader that they survived.

DZ: Now that I’ve heard about it I am very impressed. All those men pushed together in a very small boat, it must have been terrible for them to stay friendly. Meanwhile they were being driven mad by lack of fresh water and there was all that salt water all around them. That’s the reason I think it was the greatest sea escape.

LP: When you put it that way I suppose it was a great achievement. Captain Bligh was certainly excellent in the way he kept the men occupied and tried to take their minds off their troubles. In addition he treated everyone the same when it came to food or water. So I think you are right and it was the greatest example of navigational skill against the odds! Do you agree?

DA, WF and LY (together): Yes. We do.

Step5 Homework

Finish exercises in workbook.

After class write a report to your letter explaining to him why you think Captain Bligh should or should not receive the medal.

Sample letter

Dear Sir,

I think Captain Bligh should certainly receive a special medal for his amazing voyage across the sea to Timor. This is a journey that could not have been completed without great navigational skill. In addition Captain Bligh did not lose one man.

First, he showed his leadership qualities by sharing the food and water fairly with the men in the boat. Everyone was treated equally and this made for good feeling between the members of the boat.

Second, he kept everyone in the boat cheerful by discussing what they would do when they arrived safely. No one was allowed to think about what might happen if they did not arrive!

Third, he kept them occupied by organizing the complicated mathematical calculations needed to find their position at sea. The crew who had taken over the “Bounty” had left Captain Bligh with only a quadrant and a compass. This meant that numerous calculations were needed to find their correct position. Captain Bligh regularly and each person was given a different activity was important because it stopped the men from thinking about how little food and water there was.

So I hope you will give Captain Bligh this medal. He has shown leadership, fairness and concern for his crew and helped them return to England safely.

Yours,

(your name)

1. James Cook was a great English navigator and Pacific Ocean expedition leader.

2. He had not only an outstanding ability in navigation and exploration, but also a real concern for sailors' health. He carried out compulsory dietary reforms that were copied by many other ship captains.

3. He had led three great Pacific voyages during his life.

4. In his first Pacific voyage in 1769, James Cook rounded Cape Horn, then spent six months charting New Zealand, and finally explored and claimed possession of eastern Australia.

5. In 1772, Captain Cook set sail to look for a "theorized great southern continent". Although they could not manage to reach Antarctica owing to the ice, he predicted that if it did exist, it would have to be a wasteland.

6. In 1776, Captain cook started his third Pacific voyage, searching for the Northwest Passage from the Pacific Ocean to the Atlantic Ocean. Unfortunately, he was killed in a dispute with Hawaiian natives and his men's attempt at the Northwest Passage was unsuccessful. However, this voyage is still recognized as especially significant in the history of the discovery of the west coast of North America.

III. Ask the students to do exercise 2 about Revising useful structures. Then ask some pairs to act out the dialogue.

Suggested dialogue:

Susan: Do you think you'll be going to that pop concert next week?

Clare: No. Let's forget about that as it'll soon be time for our exams.

Susan: Do you need to do more revision?

Clare: I don't really think I need to do more revision. I've done enough but it'll help me forget the concert you'll be enjoying.

Susan: Is there another reason why you don’t want to come to the concert?

Clare: Actually there is a reason. I don't think I'm going to have enough money even though I've been saving especially for this occasion.

Susan: Perhaps I can help you. I always earn extra money by cleaning cars. My father always pays me when I clean his.

Clare: Well, thank you for offering to help me. Ill happily clean your father's car if he'll pay me too.

Susan: I’m sure he will. He’s always been kind to my friends.

Clare: I hope you'll thank him for me. I'd never be allowed to clean my father's car. He is so proud of it he won't let anyone touch it.

Susan: Oh this is my father’s fourth car so the excitement has worn off a little.

Clare: His fourth car? My goodness. He must have been earning a lot of money to have owned so many.

Susan: I suppose so. He has his own business so he needs a car for his work

Clare: Oh J see! That explains things Please would you phone him now and ask him when it would be convenient for me to clean it?

Susan: Of course I11 do that right aw a

Clare: That’s so kind of you. Now while I’m doing the cleaning perhaps you can order our tickets for the concert. I’ll go and get ready to begin work. See you soon. Thanks and goodbye.
