教材分析

本课为人教版新目标Go for it!七年级下册

Unit 5 Why do you like pandas? Section A 第一课时，课型为听说课。本单元的主要话题是描述动物，表达个人喜好，并说明理由。在英语新课标中属于“喜好”这一功能意念。该部分内容涉及动物，是中学生比较喜欢的话题，贴近学生生活，极易激发学生的主动性和学习兴趣。通过本单元的学习，学生能巩固并运用“why”的问句及回答，并能较流利地运用所学词汇和句型描述动物，表达个人喜好。同时，在本单元听、说、读、写的各个环节中，唤起大家保护动物的意识。

二、学情分析

学生已经学过表达自己喜好及询问原因的句型，因而学生在句型的输入和理解过程中不会存在较大问题。难点主要集中在本课时将要学习的表示动物的新词及描述这些动物的形容词上。另外，如何在以上句型中正确使用名词的单复数以及人称代词的主宾格上，仍是学生应注意并掌握的重难点。

通过本课时的学习，希望学生在拓展新词的基础上，能正确、较流利地使用所学句型表达自己对动物的喜爱，并能陈述原因。
