present Queen Elizabeth II. United England under his rule in 829.

The ancient doctrine（教义；主义）held that the

sovereign（元首；君主）derived his authority from God, not from his subjects.（臣民）This was used by the kings as an excuse for abusing power. And the

dispute over the power of the king and the parliament led to the civil war.

the power of the king against Parliament in the 17th C.

name meaning “Great Charter”. In 1215, King John

was forced by a group of feudal(封建的) barons and the Church to grant them a charter（宪章）of liberty and political rights. Magna Carta placed some limits on the king’s ability to abuse his royal power. This is still regarded as Britain’s key express ion of the rights of citizens against the Crown.（王权）

law(成文法), which are laws passed by Parliament; the

common laws(普通法,判例法), which are laws established through common practice in the courts; and conventions(习惯法), which are rules and practices not existing legally, but regarded as vital to the workings of government.

5. The Parliament and the government

(1)the Great Council(大议会)

--- in medieval times, this referred to a group of leading, wealthy barons who were summoned by the king several times a year to give the king some extra money. By the 13th C., representatives of counties, towns and cities were also included in order to raise more money. This was the beginning of what we know as Parliament today. ---Two houses: the House of Lords and the House of Commons

利法案)

husband William of Orange were invited by the politicians and church authorities to take the throne, on condition that they would respect the rights of Parliament. After this Glorious Revolution, the Bill of Rights was passed in 1689 to ensure that the King would never be able to ignore Parliament

The real center of British political life which consists of about 650 Members of Parliament (MPs) elected by the people to represent them. These MPs are elected in the General Elections and should make and debate policy in the interests of the people who vote for them.

要因素，因此我努力创造宽松民主、和谐的教学空间。 1、尊重每个学生，积极鼓励他们在学习中的尝试，保护他们的自尊心和积极性。 2、把英语教学与情态有机地结合起来，创造各种合作学习的活动，促进学生互相学习，互相帮助，体验成就感，发展合作精神。 3、关注学习有困难的或性格内向的学习，尽可能地为他们创造语言的机会。 4、建立融洽、民主的师生交流渠道，经常和学生一起反思学习过程和学习效果，互相鼓励和帮助，做到教学相关。 三、加强对学生学习策略的指导，让他们在学习和适用的过程中逐步学会如何学习。 1、积极创造条件，让学生参与到阶段性学习目标，以及实现目标的方法。即让学生体会到成功学习的快感。 2、引导学生结合语境，采用推测、查阅和协调的方法进行学习。即充分利用好词典。 3、引导学生在学习过程中，进行自我评价，并根据需要调整自己的学习目标和学习策略。即教会学生发现适合自己的学习方法。 新课程改革不是纸上谈兵，后必须要与实践相结合，即将努力学习，积极进取，积极参与课程改革，在课改中不断学习，不断实践，不断反思等有机结合起来。在以后的教学

高二英语工作总结

高二英语工作总结 篇一：高二英语教学反思 转眼间，2015年即将结束一个学期又要过去了。一年的结束总是意味着的收获，也意味着对一年的反思和总结。很多时候都会对自己的教学有一些想法，但是灵感一闪而过，我却由没有及时地抓住它。下面是我这学期感触颇深的几点课堂教学反思。 一、引导学生通过DailyReport进行自我实现。 首先，教师要引导学生根据自己的学习现状来着手DailyReport。要引导学生拓展DailyReport的内容（包括广度和深度）。DailyReport的内容不仅是对周围环境的观察和汇报，如天气变化，学校生活中的大事等。也可以是自己昨天或以前的某段经历，某种对人对事的感受。还可以是学生对某门学科或技能或社会现象的看法及感受。学生对自己在学习中遇到的问题、解决问题的过程，如英语学习中碰到的某个不懂的语言现象是如何把它弄懂的。还可以是经验介绍，如怎样记单词，怎样练听力，怎样练会话，怎样练写作等。另外学生也可以通过DailyReport对教师的教学、作业和班级管理等方面提出个人的看法和建议。总之，DailyReport的内容没有大小之分，没有重要不重要之分；但要求内容有一定的真实性，要求用正确的英语语言表达一定的中心。这样，通过对DailyReport的准备和进行，使学

生达到一种自我定位和自我实现。教师也可以从他们的DailyReport中了解他们的学生。 二、通过阅读教学有效提高学生阅读能力。 1、设计提问,激发学生的主体思维 问题设计是英语阅读教学的重要手段,是帮助学生理解、鉴赏文章的切入点。教师设计问题,要遵循循序渐近的原则,要把问题建筑在学生的注意力和兴趣之上,服务于全面提高学生素质水平的目标需要。高中英语课文大多篇幅较长。课文内容参透了丰富的审美以及科学教育内容。在这些兼顾知识性、趣味性、思想性的阅读课教学中精心设计既有启发性又能激起学生探讨兴趣的系列问题,可以启迪学生动脑,激发学生思维,培养学生主动学习的习惯。教师设计问题时,要紧扣教材,层层推进,要具有一定的思想梯度。在提问、解答的过程中,教师要启发引导,以激活学生的思维欲望,帮助学生认知和理解。 2、保证学生积极而有效的参与 (1)要营造良好的参与环境,宽松、和谐、融洽、平等的学习氛围。 (2)要留下足够的参与时间和空间。教学不要“满堂灌”,也不能“满堂问”,学生能讲的,要尽量让学生讲;学生能动的,要尽量让学生动。 (3)要创造良好的参与条件,提供合适的参与机会,组织学

英语国家概况课程标准

英语国家概况课程标准 课程代码： 适用专业：商务英语 一、课程概述 1．课程性质 语言是文化的载体，文化是语言的基础。英语语言学习和英国国家文化相互依存、密不可分。一个优秀的英语语言学习者，若不了解该语言背后所承载的民族文化，其交际能力也会受到限制。该课程能使学生了解和掌握英美两国政治，历史，经济，社会，文化和教育等基本知识，了解英美国家社会发展、现状和影响这两个国家社会发展的因素，拓展学生的知识面，培养学生文化意识，启发学生了解西方社会，了解交际规则，增强学生的英语语言学习能力，为后续专业课程的学习打下一定的基础，进而为培养高技能应用型复合人才打下基础。 2．课程设计思路 本课程在设计上围绕合作学习法—任务型教学法、比较教学法、线索梳理法、启发式等教学法。 合作学习法—任务型教学法 合作学习法又称协作学习，是以合作学习小组为基本形式，系统利用教学中动态因素之间的互动，促进学生的学习，以团体成绩作为评价标准，共同完成教学活动。任务型教学法是一种以任务或活动为核心单位计划组织语言教学的途径,一种强调“在做中学”的语言教学方法。合作学习法与任务型教学法结合是指教师设计学习任务，指导并帮助学生以小组为单位通过合作、协商完成学习任务的教学过程。主要采用组织演示、演讲、讨论等形式。 2）比较教学法 比较教学法是在教学过程中，利用教学内容的相互联系和区别，促进学生掌握和巩固教学内容、达到教学目标的一种逻辑思维方法。例如，在学习美国的政体时，我们可以和英国政体、甚至是我国的政体进行比较，异中求同，同中求异。从而对“Parliament”、“Congress”和我国的NPC （The National People’s Congress）形成更深刻的理解。运用这种教学法不仅有利于学生掌握基本知识与技能，而且有利于提高学生的创造性思维能力。3）线索梳理法 线索梳理法，尤其是历史年代轴线表示法是表达历史线索最清晰的一种方式，这种方式的特点是易于梳理，可操作性强，非常直接，便于记忆。比如说，英国历史很长，如果不进行梳理，很难记忆，如果整理成一条线索，效果却不能同日而语： Early settlers——Roman invasions——Anglo-Saxons——the Viking and Danish Invasions——the Norman Conquest——William’s Rule——the Great Charter——the Hundred Year’s War——the English Reformation——the English Renaissance——the Civil War——the Glorious Revolution——the Industrial Revolution——the two World Wars 同样，美国历史部分可整理成这样一条线索： The war of Independence——the War of 1812——territorial expansion and Westward Movement——the Civil War——the two World Wars——the Cold War——the Berlin Blockade——the Civil Rights Movement in the 1950s——the Vietnam War 二、课程培养目标 1．知识目标 了解主要英语国家的地理，历史，经济和政治等方面的概况；了解主要英语国家的文化传统，风俗习惯和社会生活的其他有关情况。 2．技能目标 扩大知识面，有效弥补英语专业学生知识面窄的不足；提高英语阅读的能力和语言应用能力。 3．素质目标
