III. 教材分析與教材重組

1. 教材分析

本單元以“世界英語”為話題，介紹了英語在當今世界所起的重要作用，使學生進一步了解學好英語的必要性，了解英美語言在詞匯、拼寫、語音等方面的區別，學會用請求和命令兩種方式轉述他人的話語，知曉在寫作過程中盡量使用間接引語的優越性。

1.1 WARMING UP提供了一個因不了解英美兩國人在用詞差異上造成誤解的例子，使學生們認識到掌握英美兩種語言差異的重要性，為Integrating Skills 中英美語言差異一文作了鋪墊。

1.2 LISTENING部分要求學生聽后快速記下房東太太對Brown先生所講的住房規矩，培養學生通過聽快速獲取有效信息的能力，并在“寫”的實際中運用“請求和命令”兩種用語間接轉述他人的請求。

1.3 SPEAKING部分要求學生三人一組合作，學會在不同場合下運用請求和命令兩種用語口頭轉述他人所說的話，提高他們的語言表達能力。

1.4 PRE-READING 是READING的熱身活動。通過對這兩個問題的討論使學生意識到學習第二語言（英語）的重要性。

1.5 READING部分是一篇說明文。文章的三個段落均說明了英語的確是世界范圍內使用最廣泛的一門語言，是聯合國的工作語言，是其他語言無法替代的。

1.6 POST-READING 部分設計了兩種練習，練習一的前兩題是細節題，第三題是一個開放性題目，鼓勵學生將英語學習與現實生活相聯系。練習二是填空題，幫助學生梳理文章、概括中心思想。

1.7 LANGUAGE STUDY分詞匯和語法兩部分。其中，Word study 旨在培養學生用英語解釋生詞的能力；語法部分是有關“請求和命令”用語的直接引語和間接引語的轉換。

1.8 INTEGRATING SKILLS 通過閱讀使學生了解英國英語和美國英語的差異及產生差異的歷史文化背景。在歸納其差異的基礎上寫一篇有關“英美語言差異”的小短文，也可模仿課文寫出你所熟悉的不同方言的一些區別。

2. 教材重組

2.1 從話題內容上分析，WARMING UP與SPEAKING部分的PART TWO話題較為一致。將WARMING UP作為SPEAKING部分PART TWO的引入部分上一節“口語課”，讓學生了解英美語言的確存在差異，有時若不了解其差異會造成很尷尬的局面；進而讓學生練習和掌握語言交際中遇到障礙時的一些常用句型。

2.2 將 LISTENING 和SPEAKING部分的PART ONE設計成一節“聽力課”，為本單元語法課作鋪墊。

2.3 將PRE-READING, READING和POST-READING整合上一節“閱讀課”，訓練學生的閱讀理解能力和技巧。

2.4 將LANGUAGE STUDY和WORKBOOK中的PRACTISING語法練習題整合在一起上一節“語法課”。

2.5 利用INTEGRATING SKILLS的READING和WRITING上一節“讀寫課”，讓學生了解英美兩種語言的差異并將其整理成文。

3.課型設計與課時分配（教材重組后，本單元可用五課時完成）

1st period 口語課

2nd period 聽力課

3rd period 閱讀課

4th period 語法課

5th period 讀寫課

IV.分課時教案

Step I Greetings and Revision

T: Good morning/afternoon, boys and girls!

Ss: Good morning/afternoon, Mr Chen!

T: Sit down, please. Today we are going to learn Unit 2: English around the world, but I want to check your homework first.

1. Check whether they have remembered the ten important sentences.

2. Check whether they have previewed the new words and expressions in this unit. Then the teacher write down: English around the world - The First Period on the blackboard.

Step II Warming up

T: Look at the picture and try to guess:

Qs: 1.What do you think is happening in the picture?

2.Where do you think is the man?

Sa: A funny story is happening.

Sb: The man is in the bathroom.

Ask the students to discuss the following questions.

1. What is Joe’s nationality? How about Nancy?

2. What it is that Nancy thinks Joe wants?

3. What is it that Joe is looking for?

4. What is their misunderstanding about?

After discussion.

Sa: Joe is an American while Nancy is British.

Sb: Nancy thinks Joe wants to have a bath.

Sc: Joe is looking for a toilet.

Sd: In American English the word “bathroom” means a place where there is a toilet and sometimes a bath or shower. In British English, the word “bathroom” means a place where there is a bath or shower and sometimes also a toilet. Joe wants to go to the toilet, but Nancy thinks he wants to take a bath.

T: You did quite well. There are really some slight differences between American English and British English, so in order to avoid misunderstanding, it is necessary for us to know about some differences between American English and British English.

Step III Speaking

T: Now, I think you must know about why the misunderstanding occurred between Joe and Nancy. Then turn your book to page10. Let’s do Speaking-Part Two. In the following box there are several useful expressions. These sentences are all about the language difficulties in communication. When we express our requests and orders, we use them. Here I give you a few minutes to remember these sentences.

Can you spell that, please?

Could you repeat that, please?

What do you mean by ...?

Could you speak a bit slowly, please?

Sorry, I didn’t follow you.

I beg your pardon?

How do you say ... in English?

How do you pronounce...?

What does ... mean?

Can you say that in a different way?

T: Now please work in small groups to make up dialogues about other language difficulties in pronunciation, spelling, grammar, uncertainty, misunderstanding, etc. and act out in class, using the useful expressions above.

Sample dialogues

Situation 1:

Taking a message: A is visiting B, but B is not in , C takes a message for B

A: Is B at home?

C: Sorry, she isn’t in. She went out just now.

A: Oh, could you do me a favor to take a message to her? I am her workmate.

C: I’d be glad to.

A: Could you please tell her we have decided to go out for an autumn outing. Please ask her whether she’d like to join us. My phone is 7500924

C: Could you repeat that, please?

A: It’s 7500924

C: Ok. I have taken it down. I’ll tell her about it the time she comes back

Situation 2:

Answering the telephone: Lucy is trying to call Mary, but Mary is not in .Tom takes a message.

Tom: Hello! This is Tom speaking.

Tom: Could you speak a bit slowly, please?

Lucy: lucy_pretty123456@yahoo.com. Have you got it?

Tom: Ok. Bye.

Situation 3:

The teacher tells the monitor about the task this afternoon. And the monitor tells it to the rest of the students.

T: This afternoon we’ll do some cleaning in our classroom at 4:00 pm . Could you please tell the students about it?

M: Certainly, I’d be glad to .

T: Please tell the students to bring some cloth

M: Ok, I will tell the class about it.

Extension Task: Students can create and practise their own dialogues. They may include other language difficulties such as pronunciation, spelling, grammar, uncertainty, misunderstanding and inability to express what they mean or want to say. (若時間不足，可改為作業)
