1、必修5 Unit 4 Making the news教学设计教材分析I教学内容分析 本单元的中心话题是“新闻”，内容涉及新闻工作者应该具备的素质和新闻采访的基本程序等。语言技能和语言知识主要围绕“新闻”这一中心话题进行设计的。Warming up部分通过讨论来引出报社各工作人员的工作类别和所负的责任。关键在于Whats the job?和 What it involves?Pre-reading部分首先通过一个调查问卷来引导学生去考虑一个优秀的记者应该具备的素质；然后引导学生谈他们难忘的经历和感受；最后通过一个“假设”为下一部分的学习做好准备。Reading部分通过Zhou Yang,一个跃跃

2、欲试的新手和他的上司Hu Xin, 一个经验丰富的资深记者之间的谈话引导学生了解新闻工作者应该具备的素质，新闻采访的基本程序及采访时应该注意的要点等。Comprehending设计了四个教学活动来加深学生对“阅读”（Comprehending）部分的理解和复习。 第一个活动要求学生根据要求，通过阅读找到所需要的信息，重新组织后再呈现出来。 第二个活动要求学生把阅读部分分成三个小节，并说明每个小节的要点。 第三个活动通过形容词归类进一步去引导学生思考一个优秀的文字记者和摄影记者应该具备的素质。 第四个活动要求学生朗读后半部分对话，练习句子重音和语调。Learning about language

3、 归纳和运用了本单元的一些重点词汇和语法。Using language部分涵盖了听，说，读，写四项语言基本技能。 第一部分学生首先通过阅读“获得独家新闻”一文。写出“新闻”报道的步骤和见报前的有关程序，然后讨论这位“影星”可能说了什么谎话。 第二部分首先听一段对篮球明星姚明的采访。随后的练习设计既训练了学生获取要点的能力，又引导学生如何获取细节。 最后要求学生通过开展两人对话活动复习巩固有关交际功能“约会”的用语。 Summing up部分归纳了本单元的主要学习内容并引导学生对学习效果进行自我检测。Learning tip部分建议学生尽可能多的阅读一些适合于中学生的英文报纸。教师不妨推荐一些给

Explanation of the grammar在英语中，主语和谓语的语序通常是主语在前，谓语在后。但有时谓语的全部或者一部分（通常是助动词或情态动词）却提到主语的前面，这种语序叫做“倒装”。倒装的原因，一是语法结构的需要，一是为了强调。倒装有两种类型：完全倒装和部分倒装。所谓完全倒装是指整个谓语移至主语之前。Eg Out rush

44、ed the students to welcome the foreign friends.所谓部分倒装是指只把系动词，情态动词，助动词或表语放在主语之前。Eg Seldom does he go to school late.英语中常见的倒装句，有下列一些情况情况例句说明含有否定意义的副词或连词放在句首时Never before have we seen such a sight.Little did I think that he could be back alive.Not until New Years Day shall I give you a gift.Not only wa

45、s everything that he had taken away from him, but also his German citizenship.常用的否定词有：never, not, hardly, scarcely, seldom, little, not until , not onlybut also, no soonerthan ，（scarcely）when等。一般主句用部分倒装。副词only放在句首时Only then did he realize his mistakes.Only in this way can you learn math well.Note:(O

46、nly Mother can understand me.Only three of us failed in the exam.)Only起强调作用，其句型为“only +状语部分倒装”。如置于句首的only修饰主语，则不用倒装结构。虚拟语气条件从句中Were they here, they would help us.Had I been informed earlier, I could have done something.Should you fail, take more pain and try again.把从句中if省略将were, had或should放在主语的前面。直接

47、引语的全部或一部分放在句首时“He is a clever boy, ”said the teacher.“Go, Dick, go!” cried Tom,“Go home and get help.”“What do you think of the film?” he asked.Note:(“Im leaving for Hong Kong next month”Mary told me yesterday.)主句主语和谓语次序颠倒，用完全倒装。但如果主句主语为代词时或谓语部分比主语长，一般不用倒装。表示祝愿的句子中May you succeed!Long live the Commu

48、nist Party of China.谓语动词或谓语的一部分放在主语的前面。副词so在句首He is interested in popsongs, and so I am.They will learn chemistry next term, so will I.I can drive a car, so can my younger brother.表示前面所说的情况也适合于另一个人或另一事物的肯定句中。Note:Tom won the first prize for the English competition .So he did.It was cold yesterday. S

49、o it was.如果后面的句子只是单纯重复前句的意思，不表示也适用于另一个人或另一事，则不用倒装结构。在频度状语often, always, many a time 等开头的句子中Often did we warn them not to do so.Many a time has she helped me with my English.在方式状语thus开头的句子中及程度状语so放句首时Thus ended his life.So loudly did he speak that even people in the next room could hear him.介词短语作状语，放

50、在今句首时In the middle of the room stood a little girl.In the distance was a horse.在强调表语的句子中Such was Albert Einstein, a simple man of great achievement.Such is life.Nearby were two canoes in which they had come to the island.表语提前，不仅为了强调，而且为了使句子结构达到平衡协调，或使上下文紧密衔接。4.
