素材，设计20分钟的英语阅读教学方案。教案没有固定格式．但须包含下列要点：·teachingobjectives·teachingcontents·keyanddifficultpoints·majorstepsandtimeallocation·activitiesandjustifications教学时间：20分钟学生概况：某城镇普通高中一年级(第二学期)，班级人数40人，多数学生已经达到《普通高中英语课程标准(实验)》六级水平。学生课堂参与积极性一般。语言素材：GoodteacherTobeagoodteacher,youneedsomeofthegiftsofagoodactor;youmustbeabletoholdtheattentionandinterestofyouraudience;youmustbeaclearspeaker,withagood,strong,pleasingvoicewhichisfullyunderyourcontrol;andyoumustbeabletoactwhatyouareteaching,inordertomakeitsmeaningclear.Watchagoodteacher,andyouwillseethathedoesnotsitstillbeforehisclass:hestandsthewholetimeheisteaching;hewalksabout,usinghisarms,handsandfingerstohelphiminhisexplanations,andhisfacetoexpressfeelings.Listentohim,andyouwillheartheloudness,thequality(音色)andthemusicalnoteofhisvoicealwayschangingaccordingtowhatheistalkingabout.【答案】TeachingContents:Thelessonisapassageaboutthequalitiesagoodteachershouldpossess.TeachingObjectives:(1)KnowledgeobjectiveStudentscangetthemainideaofthepassageandsomespecificinformationaboutit.(2)AbilityobjectiveByreadingthispassage,students'readingskillslikescanningandskimmingcanbeimproved.(3)EmotionalobjectiveBydiscussingandgroupwork,theirawarenessofcooperationcanbearoused.TeachingKeyandDifficultPoints:(I)TeachingkeypointStudentscangetthemainideaaboutthepassageandlistthequalitiesofagoodteacher.(2)TeachingdifficultpointHowtousethereadingstrategiesskillfully.MajorSteps:Step1Pre-reading(4minutes)三、根据题目要求完成下列任务，用中文作答。下面是某初中教师的课堂教学片段。(TaskedSstomakesentencesaccordingtotheinformationontheBb.)T:Now,let′slookattheblackboardandmakesentences.Isay"Idon′thaveabasketball"andyousay"Ourteacherdoesn′thaveabasketball".Isay"Ihaveavolleyball"andyousay"Ourteacherhasavolleyball".LiXing,makethethirdsentence...(TwrotesentencesontheBb.)LiXing:Tomhaveatennisracket.T:IsitcorrectNo,weshouldsayitlikethis"Tomhasatennisracket".Wedon′tput"have"after"He,She,Tom,Lucy".Weshouldsay"Hehas...,Shehas...,Tomhas...,Lucyhas...".(TwrotethewrongsentenceontheBbandcorrectedit.)T:Nextone,LiLei,please.LiLei:Jimhasaping-pongball.T:Yes.(TwroteitontheBb.)Nextone,ZhangHong,please.ZhangH0ng:LiLeidon′thaveasoccerball.T:No,no,no.Wrongagain.WhatisthecorrectanswerSs:LiLeidoesn′thaveasoccerball.T:Yes.(TwrotethecorrectanswerontheBb.)【答案】(1)①学生在英语学习过程中缺少语言环境，受母语表达习惯影响。②与汉语不同，英语谓语动词需要随着时态、人称和数的变化而变化。(2)该教师采用了直接纠错法来纠正学生的错误，即学生出现语言错误时，教师对其错误予以正面纠正(说出正确的语言形式，并让学生改正)。(3)①在课堂教学过程中，特别是在提问的过程中，很多学生都缺乏自信，羞于开口说英语。针对学生回答错误的情况，教师应当以鼓励性评价为主，采用多种方法适时地纠错。通过表情、手势、语调等对学生的答案进行评价是教师课堂最常见的反馈形式之一。学生回答问题时谓语动词使用错误，教师最好不要马上否认学生，试着多次重复，并放慢语速，或者摆摆手、摇摇头等，启发学生自己发现错误并改正，并且在此过程中不失时机地给予学生积极强化，这样学生会记得更牢，自信心也不会受打击。②为了有效地纠正学生在英语课堂上出现的语言错误，就必须明确错误产生的原因，这样才能“对症下药”，进而进行有效的引导。教学片段中回答错误的学生主要是由于受母语的干扰，对于新的语言规则掌握不熟练。教师应该在纠正错误的基础上，指导学生掌握有效的学习策略，例如归纳学习、演绎学习、情境学习、认知强化练习等，从而达到“药到病除”的效果。四、根据题目要求完成下列任务，用中文作答。简述形成性评价的概念及目的，并列举其中的一种评价方式。【答案】(1)形成性评价是指在教学活动过程中，评价活动本身效果，用以调节活动过程，保证目标的实现而进行的评价，是为指导教学过程顺利进行而对学生在学习过程中使用所学知识进行学习活动的情况的评价。形成性评价的主要目的不是为了选拔优秀学生，而是为了发现每个学生的学习潜能，促进学生的学习，并为教师提供教学反馈，它是一种双向活动、引发学生真实行为表现的活动。形成性评价重视从学生的日常表现中提取信息，通过收集学生日常学习的情况和学习需要，随时调整教学内容和方法，从而提高课堂教学效率。(2)成长记录袋是形成性评价中的一种重要的评价方式。它是以档案袋为依据而对评价对象进行的客观综合性评价，主要是指收集学生自己认为能够证明自己学习进步、创新精神和知识技能的成果，可以包括计划、中间过程的草稿、最终的成果以及教师的评价等相关的资料，以此来评价学生学习和进步的状况。五、下面是某英语教师在阅读课EnglishAroundtheWorld的教学片段．T:Now,youwillhave5minutestoreadthepassageforthefirsttime,andthenIwantyoutotellmethedifferentideasineachparagraph,andthenyouneedtoanswerthequestionsontheblackboard.WhydidEnglishbegintobespokeninmanyothercountries?DoyouknowthebackgroundofShakespeare?WhycanIndianpeoplespeakfluentEnglish?Youcanreadthepassagenow!结合教学实例进行分析：?(1)教师的活动设计存在什么问题?该问题可能会导致什么负面结果?(10分)(2)针对存在的问题提出相应的改进建议。(10分)(3)谈一谈你对阅读课读后环节的理解，以本实例为依据可以设置哪些读后活动?(10分)【答案】(1)该教师的授课环节属于读中环节，在本教学片段中．教师在读中环节让学生们第一次阅读课文之后既要回答文章每段的大意还要回答一些细致的问题。没有很好地为学生分清层次。学生在一遍阅读中很可能无法兼顾大意与细节，从而无法获取有效的信息，这不利于培养学生正确的阅读策．也可能会影响学生阅读的积极性．(2)一般我们在操作读中环节的时候都会分成两个部分，先是快速阅读(fastreading)，给学生们少量的时间，让学生快速读课文之后回答一些较为简单的问题，例如文章的主题是什么，大意是什么．或者简要归纳每段的段落大意等；之后是仔细阅读(carefulreading)，这个时候再让同学们进行二次阅读，然后回答一些关于文章细节理解的问题。(3)读后环节是教师在带领学生分析清楚了文章的大意之后可以针对文章的论点论据组织一些小组讨论或辩论赛，或者是找同学对文章进行简单的复述，在这个环节既可以检查学生对知识的掌握程度也可以锻炼学生的小组合作能力和口语表达能力．六、根据题目要求完成下列任务，用中文作答。在语法教学中，语法练习的形式有哪几种(10分)?请对任意两种练习形式进行举例说明(10分)。【答案】(1)语法练习的形式①机械型练习。这类练习的作用是帮助学生熟记、掌握语法规则和形式，一般使用互不连接的单独结构、短语或句子。常见的练习形式有填空、选择和替换等。②意义型练习。这类练习强调形式的正确理解和输出，但同时涉及了意义。练习仍然使用互不连接的单独结构，答案通常是确定的。常见的练习形式有：基于意义的填空或选择、配对、改错及合并句子、汉译英或英译汉等。③交际型练习。这类练习最有使用价值和趣味性，它强调以交际为目的的意义输出或理解.在交际过程中同时注意结构的运用。常见的练习形式有：两人活动、小组讨论活动、角色扮演活动、头脑风暴活动等。(2)练习举例①机械型练习——替换练习T：I’mtryingtofindabookinthebox.S：I’mtryingtofindabookinthebox.T：shelf.S：I’mtryingtofindabookintheshelf.T：bed.S：I’mtryingtofindabookinthebed.⑦意义型练习——汉泽英我打算在我家乡买套房子。七、根据题目要求完成下列任务，用中文作答。课堂教学设计是以获得最优化的教学效果为目的，提高课堂教学质量的一项关键工作。简述其五个基本要素，并说明基本程序。【答案】(1)课堂教学设计的五个基本要素：教学任务及对象；教学目标；教学策略；教学过程；教学评价。(2)课堂教学设计的基本程序：①分析教学任务，阐述教学的预期目标；从学习的需求分析开始，了解教学中存在的问题，学生的实际情况与期望水平之间的差距。这样以解决“为什么”及“学什么”和“教什么”的问题。②分析学生特征，教师在分析具体的教学内容时，不仅要考虑课程、单元及课时的教学内容的选择和安排，更需考查学生在进行学习之前，对于本课程中本单元的学习内容具有什么知识和技能，即对学生初始能力的评定，了解学生的一般特征和对所学内容的兴趣和态度，即确定学生的起点状态。③明确具体的学习目标，分析学生从起点状态过渡到终点状态应掌握的知识、技能或应形成的态度与行为习惯：即学生通过学习应该掌握什么知识和技能。④确定教学策略，考虑用什么方式和方法给学生呈现教材，提供学习指导；考虑怎样才能实现学习目标或教学目标。解决“怎么学”和“怎么教”的问题，其中应考虑教学媒体的选择和应用，根据不同的情况选择不同的教学媒体或教学资源。⑤实行教学设计评价，考虑如何对教学的结果进行科学的测量与评价。考虑用什么方法引起学生的反应并提供反馈：对学和教的行为做出评价，在行为评价时，一方面要以目标为标准进行评价，另一方面评价提供了关于教学效果的反馈信息，从而对模式中所有步骤作重新审查，特别应检验目标和策略方面的决定。八、设计任务：请阅读下面学生信息和语言素材，设计一节课的教学方案。教案没有固定格式，但须包含下列要点：·teachingobjectives·teachingcontents·keyanddifficultpoints·majorstepsandtimeallocation·activitiesandjustification教学时间：45分钟学生概况：某城镇普通中学高中一年级第一学期学生，班级人数40人。多数学生已经达到《普通高中英语课程标准》（实验）五级水平。学生课堂参与积极性一般。语言素材：Pompeii:ThefactsAugust24,intheyearAD79,begannormallyforthepeopleinPompeii,atownatthefootof?MountVesuvius.Farmerswentouttotheirfields,shopkeeperssetouttheirgoodsforsale,craftspeople?openedtheirworkshopsandtherichwalkedtothepublicbathswhiletheirservantscleanedtheirhouses?andwashedtheirclothes.Unfortunately,theendofthedaywasfarfromnormalforthe20,000citizensof?Pompeii.Earlyintheafternoon,whenmanypeoplewererestingfromtheheatoftheday,MountVesuvius?erupted.Millionsoftonnesofash,lavaandpumicepouredontothesurroundinghillsidea
