1、ReadingCanadaland of maple treesTorontoMontrealVancouverEdmonton To gain some information about the geography, the history and four cities of Canada To learn to sort information into sections To master the words and expressions in this passageObjectives漢語是我們的母語，我們從學(xué)英語開始，就是用漢語來解釋和記憶英語的。變“用漢語解釋和記憶英語”為

2、“用英語解釋和記憶英語”。避免了將英語轉(zhuǎn)換為另一種語言漢語所帶來的不便和時間耗費。不但提高了效率，而且久而久之，有可能在頭腦中建立起兩種思維系統(tǒng)，即在漢語思維之外，還可以逐步建立起獨立的英語思維系統(tǒng)。用英語解釋和記憶英語，本身就是在學(xué)習(xí)和運用英語，對提高英語語感和英語的閱讀理解能力以及綜合運用能力很有好處，是一舉多得的好方法。真正做到了用英語品味英語，越品越有味；用英語理解英語，理解更準(zhǔn)確。鑒于本環(huán)節(jié)初次嘗試此種設(shè)置，可能有些學(xué)生對英語解釋不能完全理解，為降低難度，英文解釋后還配有中文解釋，以方便學(xué)生回顧早讀課中已預(yù)習(xí)過的單詞，進(jìn)一步加深記憶。the line that divides one

6、段落第一行，關(guān)注文章中反復(fù)出現(xiàn)的關(guān)鍵詞。 略讀時，要用充足的時間讀懂段落的第一句和第二句，因為第一句往往是該段的主題句(topic sentence)，而第二句往往是對前句的延伸(extension)或進(jìn)一步的解釋(explanation)。通過略讀把握文章大意 運用掃讀(scanning)迅速瀏覽從第三句開始的后面部分,搜尋作者對開頭兩句的支持句(supporting sentences),并同時注意文章中間是否有轉(zhuǎn)折詞(transition),因為這些詞常常會把文章的思路逆轉(zhuǎn)或加入其它重要的信息。當(dāng)讀到段落的最后一句時,我們又要使用略讀,這時必須再次放慢速度(slow down your

7、pace)直到完全消化作者對段落的小結(jié)(conclusion),因為該小結(jié)有可能與主題句截然相反或引導(dǎo)讀者進(jìn)入下一個段落。通過掃讀尋找特定信息或特定詞組Reading strategyskimmingscanninga general idea certain informationtitles and headingsthe first and last sentences of paragraphsthe first and last paragraphspictures and chartsScan the text forkey words and phrases, dates, et

9、n Canada, and the maple leaf, which is on the Canadian flag, is considered Canadas national symbol.SkimmingReading Comprehension ICareful reading to solve difficult pointsTips for teacher本模塊的careful reading主要是針對句型和部分短語的解釋，教師可以根據(jù)學(xué)生的預(yù)習(xí)情況來選擇性講解。為了引導(dǎo)學(xué)生進(jìn)行自主學(xué)習(xí)，自己查找相關(guān)資料學(xué)習(xí)新單詞，這里不對詞匯做解釋。但為了方便，在每個單元的language

10、points板塊中會對本單元的詞匯做一個重點講解。Canada is one of the largest countries in the world, second only to Russia, and has always been famous for its fantastic natural scenery.短語second only to 意思是“僅次于”, 強調(diào)某事物接近最大或最重要等。This seaside city is second only to the capital in terms of population.second to none 最好的短語be fa

11、mous for意思是 “因為而著名”。Canada has vast areas of wilderness, from the Arctic north, where average winter temperatures are usually minus 20 degrees centigrade, to the 8,892-kilometer-long border with the USA to the south, which is the longest border in the world not defended by an army or the police.本句是主

12、從復(fù)合句，句中where和 which分別引導(dǎo)一個非限制性定語從句。介詞短語fromto說明地域范圍之廣。 For those who love natural recreation, it is possible to walk, sail or cross-country ski for hoursor even dayswithout meeting another person. 1) it is possible (for sb.) to do 某人做某事是有可能的,某人可能做某事 possible, probable, likely的用法: likely 1. 很可能的+to-v

13、+that John is likely to be in London this autumn. 今年秋天約翰可能在倫敦。 2. 適當(dāng)?shù)?正合要求的(+for) The park is a likely place for the picnic. 這公園倒是個適合野餐的地方。 possible, probable的區(qū)別 這兩個詞的反義詞是impossible, improbable1）possible作“或許”解，有“也許如此，也許不如此”之意。強調(diào)客觀上有可能性，但常常帶有“實際可能性很小”的暗示。 2）probable用來指有根據(jù)，合情理，值得相信的事物，帶有“大概，很可能”的意味。語氣

14、比possible要重，是most likely之意。 Its possible, though not probable. That he will accept the terms. 他也可能接受這些條件，但希望不大。 be possible, be probable常用形式主語it，構(gòu)成句型為： It is possible/probable + that （從句） It is possible/probable + for sb. to do sth. 例如：他有可能做這件事。 It is possible for him to do this. It is possible that

15、 he will do this. He is possible to do this.Montreal, a port in the province of Quebec, is the second largest city in Canada, and also the second largest French-speaking city in the world, Paris being the largest.句中 a port in the province of Quebec 是Montreal 的同位語。Paris being the largest是獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu)，表示補充說

16、明，Paris是分詞短語being the largest的邏輯主語。如They are trying their best, everyone working day and night.Vancouver has one of the largest Chinese populations in North America.句中population用作可數(shù)名詞，表示某一地區(qū)或某一類別的人口總數(shù)。如：The 2010 population study shows that Native American populations in the south-west continue to gr
