Thoughts on the design:

本节课是本单元的第二课时,是以读为主的阅读教学课。阅读教学应当着重培养学生获取和处理主要信息的能力,理解文章主旨和作者意图,通过上下文的线索进行推理,所以,设计了由浅入深多项阅读理解题;同时,本单元要求培养学生形成良好的辨认客观观点的阅读策略,所以在题目中也有所体现。

Teaching aims:

1. After learning the reading material Important Film Events around the World, the students will be able to identify a transcript of a television show;

2. After reading, Ss will be able to describe different film festivals around the world;

3. After learning the reading strategy, Ss will be able to identify objective views;

4. After reading the passage, Ss will be interested in searching for more knowledge about films.

Teaching procedures:

Step 1 Lead-in (PPT 5-11)

Check the homework. (Ask Ss to surf the Internet or refer to some relevant books to find background information about film events around the world and their favorite directors or films.)
