內(nèi)容分析【W(wǎng)hat】本板塊話題為“做一名有判斷力的新聞讀者”，由兩篇新聞報(bào)道和一篇論說文組成。兩則新聞是對亨德森大樓火災(zāi)的報(bào)道：第一篇強(qiáng)調(diào)了消防員面對火情反應(yīng)迅速，很快趕到現(xiàn)場并撲滅大火；第二篇側(cè)重用數(shù)據(jù)體現(xiàn)火災(zāi)之嚴(yán)重并給出火災(zāi)原因的初步調(diào)查結(jié)果。論說文以兩篇報(bào)道為例，分析了基于同一事件的不同報(bào)道之間產(chǎn)生信息差異甚至互相矛盾的種種原因，并就如何批判性閱讀新聞報(bào)道給出了切實(shí)可行的建議。

【W(wǎng)hy】本板塊先給出兩篇新聞報(bào)道，然后對其進(jìn)行分析和討論，以此完成對“批判性閱讀新聞”這一主題的探討，旨在幫助我們清晰而深入地理解成為一名有判斷力的新聞讀者的目的和意義，并學(xué)會(huì)在實(shí)際生活中進(jìn)行實(shí)踐。如文中所說，對待新聞信息需運(yùn)用自己的判斷力，而非盲目相信。本板塊的學(xué)習(xí)能夠培養(yǎng)我們的思維品質(zhì)，讓我們在充斥著各種媒體信息的現(xiàn)代社會(huì)中學(xué)會(huì)批判性思考。

【How】本板塊的三個(gè)文本互相關(guān)聯(lián)，有機(jī)結(jié)合，整體服務(wù)于板塊話題。兩篇新聞報(bào)道結(jié)構(gòu)清晰、內(nèi)容翔實(shí)、語言簡練，具有鮮明的新聞體裁特征。雖然講述的是同一事件，但標(biāo)題、日期、配圖等細(xì)節(jié)均體現(xiàn)了差異，為后面的論說分析作鋪墊。報(bào)道中的用詞以及呈現(xiàn)事實(shí)性信息的方式則有助于我們掌握新聞報(bào)道的撰寫技巧，為后面板塊的活動(dòng)作準(zhǔn)備。論說文首先通過提問的方式引發(fā)我們思考新聞信息差異的原因，并在例證過程中指導(dǎo)我們?nèi)绾闻行缘亻喿x新聞報(bào)道。文章分析層層深入，觀點(diǎn)明確，引證可信，不僅對我們培養(yǎng)批判性閱讀能力有著積極的指導(dǎo)意義，還能讓我們熟悉論說文的文體特征?！艚虒W(xué)目標(biāo)Bytheendofthissection,wewillbeableto:1.identifythekeyinformationinthetwonewsreportsandthedifferencesbetweenthem;2.understandthereasonsforthedifferencesbetweennewsreportsandthewaystobeacriticalnewsreader;3.graspthelanguagefeaturesandwritingtechniquesofanewsreport;4.knowabouthowtobecomeagoodjournalist.Mostofuslearnaboutnewsthroughthemassmedia,butcanwejustbelievenewsasitispresented?Thetwonewsreportsandthearticlebelowencourageyoutobeacriticalnewsreader.Beforeyoureadthenewsreportsandthearticle,thinkaboutthefollowingquestions:1)Doyoubelieveeverythingyoureadinanewsreport?Whyorwhynot?present/pr??zent/v.（口頭或書面）表達(dá)，表示;描述;陳述
