Unit 4 Making the news 第一部分

《金色教案》教学设计说明

About the topic 本单元的话题是Making the news/ 创造新闻，介绍了“新闻”产业的运and structures 单元话题和结构

the 作过程。单元句法项目是：倒装句。

《金色教案》教学设计在单元课时划分上与课本保持一致，即“阅读课、知识课、运用课三课时/三课型划分”。但在实际教学过程中，我们建议教师依据学生基础、教学条件、学校安排的因素，对课本、对《金色教案》教学设计重新划分课时、裁剪、拼接使用我们提供的材料，以便“物尽所用”，达到最佳教学效果。教师也可以参照我们提出的“实际教学过程课时划分建议”进行教学。

Period 1 Reading

阅读课

Warming Up

部分教师可以选择Warming up by discussing （Think like a reporter），Warming up by reading a piece of news in English 或者Warming up by talking about the term "news" itself的导入形式激发背景知识、为其后的阅读作好词语、结构和心理的准备。

教师可补充：新闻，是以报纸、电视、广播节目或互联网的形式对最新事件进行的报道和传播。涵盖范围包括地方、全国以及全世界。新闻报道有自己特定的写作格式。大多数新闻都由记者调查和报道，通常经通讯社传播。

Pre-reading 以going over expressions for news making形式进行读前活动。补充：记者主要在报社、电视台、广播电台、杂志社、通讯社等机构工作。网络出现之后，也有部分记者替网络媒体（网络报）或专业网站工作。许多政府机关、社团内，也有编制内的记者。还有不在固定媒体工作的记者，一般称为「自由撰稿」或「自由记者」，接受媒体委讬或靠投稿维持生计。记者的表现方式可以分为报导、专题、调查采访、专访、精确报导等等。但记者的稿件、照片、影带等，通常还要经过编辑台的处理。

Reading是篇对话体记叙文，记叙了“我”在“中国日报”第一份工作的经历。应当引导学生从结构和意义方面读懂课文、摘记要点。补充“记

Photographer Editor Designer Printer Takes photographs of important people or events Makes sure the writing is clear, concise and accurate; checks facts Lays out the article and photographs Prints the newspaper Well done! By the way, have you ever heard “journalist”? Is there any difference between journalist and reporter?

Ordinarily speaking, a reporter is a person whose job is to discover information about news events and describe them for a newspaper or magazine or for radio or television. And a journalist is a person who writes news stories or articles for a newspaper or magazine or broadcasts them on radio or television. Maybe in Chinese we can understand it better: reporter; journalist reporter＝news reporter“新闻记者”，特指外出采访的记者。

journalist“记者”泛指新闻工作者，如报纸的编辑、采访记者、摄影记者都可以叫journalist。

Now let’s do with the pre-reading questions.

⑵Warming up by taking about working for a newspaper Common sense 1. Reporter and journalist mean the same. Yes?

No?

Your opinions

2. Only the chief editor decides on the

content of the newspapers. 3. A good reporter is usually well educated.

4. Only the content of the newspaper is

decided on the day, it won’t be changed.

5. In covering an event, sped is playing an

important role in making the news.

⑶

Warming up by talking about the term "news" itself

These days we've got so much topical news: American Election, Yasser Arafat's death... You know, there's an old saying in English--No news is good news. Does that mean if we do hear the news it's supposed to be bad? Everybody has his or her own opinion. However, I don't want to comment on any news here. I'd like to talk about the term "news" itself. So far how many expressions have you known about the news? You might mention "breaking news", "Daily news" ...

Not enough! :)
