Unit 2

Working the land

本节课所授内容是必修4第二单元第二课时，是一节阅读课，全单元围绕“农业”展开话题，我们都出生于农民家庭，这一话题对我们农村的孩子来说并不陌生。

“热身”（Warming Up）部分围绕有关农业、农村和农作物种植的内容提问，让学生谈谈对农村和农业劳动的认识。采用讨论法，根据图片设置几个问题，通过学生讨论，主动、自愿回答这些问题，了解农民的生活现状，提高他们对农业的更深一步的认识。

（Reading）部分介绍中国著名的农业科学家、“水稻之父”袁隆平和他的巨大成就。第一段通过对袁隆平的外貌描写，刻画出一个普通中国农民的形象。袁隆平也称他自己是农民，也和农民一起耕种，他的科研殿堂就是广阔的农村。然后介绍袁隆平的科研成果—超级杂交水稻。第二段介绍袁隆平的家庭背景、学业和科研情况。第三段勾勒出袁博士不图名不图利，无私奉献的高尚品质。教学中我们可以引导学生从不同角度分析袁隆平的工作、成就、生活及人格魅力等，勾画出一个过着普通人的生活，干着伟大的事业先进人物；塑造了一个朴实、务实的中国农业科学家的形象。

通过阅读A pioneer for all people,这篇语言材料，达到强化语言意识，积累语言经验，培养学生阅读能力的目的。我们班大多数学生的父母亲都是农民，教育他们尊重农民的劳动，理解我们的父母，要尊重我们的父母，我们应以他们为荣。
