高中英语人教版 (2019)必修 第二册Unit 3 The internet教案及反思

Unit 3 The Internet

  Period 1 Listening &Speaking＆Talking教学设计

Listening and Speaking introduces the topic of “ask about online habits”.

Many middle school students have been surfing the Internet for many years, but what they do with the Internet and how much time they spend every day may not be very clear to themselves, nor to other students. This section allows students to investigate their peers' Internet use, which is conducive to their mutual understanding and understanding of the Internet. It can also help them reflect on their own online behavior, learn from other people's good online habits, and get rid of their bad online behavior.

The listening text of this section is an investigation interview. The investigators interview specific groups with the same questions to obtain information, so as to understand their views, practices or attitudes on this issue. There are two specific questions: “how much time do you spend online every day? What do you usually do online?”.  The answers of the three respondents provide rich and different information, and achieve the purpose of the investigators. The oral discourse structure of survey interviews generally includes greeting and explaining the purpose of the interview, presenting the interview questions and the respondents' answers.

Listening and Talking introduces the theme of “choosing the right application ".  Listening text is a conversation between Laura and Xiao Bo. In this part of listening, “oink”； “piggy bank” may cause the students' hearing comprehension limitation. Oink refers to sound word and pig's sound. So, add some oink to my piggy bank is often used to describe "making a little money".
