Module 2 Great books
Unit 1 Confucius' works are read by many people
课型：听说课
【教材分析】本模块第一单元对话的话题是上一模块School Magazine的延续，由Betty为校刊栏目寻找素材而引出Great books的话题。在语法上以一般现在时被动语态为主，这是学生们第一次感知、体验并全面系统地学习被动语态这个新语法的起点。 【教学目标】
1. 知识目标：能正确理解并使用下列单词works, influence, thinker, thought, wise, copy, monthly, literature词组和句子What’s up? as far as , not …any more , millions of It’ a pity. Sounds like a good idea! /We’re still influenced by his thought. /He isn’t known as a great thinker like…/That’s what makes …,等。 体验一般现在时的被动语态的语意和构成。
2. 技能目标：掌握一般现在时的被动语态的用法。
3. 情感目标：通过对话学习，对孔子、莎士比亚、马克·吐温这三位伟大的人物有基本
的认识，在交流中鼓励不同层次的学生敢于发表自己的观点。
【教学重难点】: 一般现在时的被动语态的用法 【教学过程】
一、［课前朗读］根据音标读出单词works, influence, thinker, thought, wise, copy, monthly, literature并了解汉语意思，养成学生自主学习词汇的习惯，促进学生迅速进入学习状态。
［检查词汇预习］
（一）学生结对，小组互查等形式来检查学生对词汇的预习情况 （二）朗读单词，注意发音
二、［情境导入］
标题导入:“Recently I’ve read a great book called Romeo and Juliet. I’m deeply moved by it. Have you ever read some great books?” 随即将第2模块的标题 “Great books”呈现在黑板上，鼓励学生说出他们读过的名著。
这里用学生们熟悉的话题导入新课，能够激发学生学习的兴趣，活跃课堂气氛，更重要的是通过老师的表述，如运用重读、稍慢的语速等方式强调被动语态的句子，让学生们在真实的语境中感知被动语态。 三、小听力（自主完成，合作质疑）
听activity2，展示三幅图片，问“Who are they? Do you know something about them? Try to use the words in the table to help you.”,学生们两人一组描述图片，之后，听磁带看学生们的匹配是否与所听到的一致。 四、对话处理

被动语态由 “助动词be＋及物动词的过去分词”构成。人称、数和时态的变化是通过be的变化表现出来的。一般现在时的被动语态构成：___________________________ eg:
