Unit 2 The Olympic Games I．教学内容分析

本单元的中心话题是“奥运会”。

Warming Up部分通过讨论让学生了解古代和现代奥运会的异同。

Pre-reading部分的三个问题则进一步考查学生对奥运会基本常识的了解。

Reading部分作者通过一个虚拟的采访向读者介绍了古代奥运会与现代奥运会的异同。

Comprehending部分帮助学生归纳他们已知的和刚学到的关于古代与现代奥运会异同，并且进一步讨论奥运会相关知识。

Learning about Language部分都同单元主题紧密相关，词汇和语法结构的呈现也尽可能地安排在相关的语境中。

Using Language部分通过一个希腊神话故事来引导学生进行读、听、说、写的综合训练。

Learning Tip部分鼓励学生在两人活动和小组活动中积极发言，这样既可以消除害羞的心理，又有利于学生掌握恰当的交际策略。
