设计意图:在略读和查读过程中,学生在对整个文章的大意有了基本的把握,锻炼了学生快速阅读的技巧。通过任务型教学法,让学生仔细阅读文章,可以加深学生对文章的理解,也锻炼了学生对细节信息的获取能力。
4. Post-reading (5’)
(1) Ask students to retell this passage with the help of the information that we have finished in while-reading.
(2) Have an interview: Imagine the students meet Bill Gates when going out of the museum. Invite a student to act as Bill Gates, the others may ask him the questions like these:
① “Mr. Bill Gates, could you tell us in what ways computers are used now?”
② “Mr. Bill Gates, what do you think the future computers will be like?”
设计意图:根据已有信息复述文章可以加深学生对本课的掌握程度。设置采访活动,可以锻炼学生用英语表达的能力,让学生将所学的知识进行信息输出,加强说的训练。在采访的过程中,增强同学们的合作理念。
