Bodylanguage阅读课教学设计

Bodylanguage阅读课教学设计 一教学目标: 知识与技能: 理解、内化、运用以下生词及词组—fold、anger、vary、thub、crazy、od、part、hug、bo、pal、shrug、incredible、pat、getthrough、teardon、chart 获取关于bodylanguage的相关信息,且进行siing,scanning,carefulreading,generalization,guessi ngeaning等阅读技能训练。 充分利用多媒体,强化学生自主学习的意识,培养学生组织语言、运用语言的能力。 过程与方法: 培养学生通过自主学习和合作学习,获取信息和处理信息的能力。 培养学生质疑意识,分析问题、解决问题、综合问题的能力和创造性思维能力。 情感态度价值观: 在有趣的话题激励下,诱导学生积极参与,充分调动他们学习的兴趣。 使学生了解身势语在各国人民交往中的重要性。了解在各国相同身势语所表示的不同交际含义。增强对中外“身势

语”差异的敏感性,培养世界意识;通过文化地域对比,加深对祖国相关知识的理解,增强对祖国的热爱之情。 二教学重点: 训练学生的略读与扫读技巧是本课的重点。根据英语课程标准关于语言技能的教学建议,略读与扫读是阅读教学的基本技能之一,是学生必须掌握的。 三教学难点: 怎样使学生理解不同国家的身势语,正确的使用身势语及比较各国身势语的不同是本课的难点。根据英语课程标准,文化意识是内容标准之一,要求学生掌握一些行为规范、风土人情等方面的知识,这有利于培养学生的世界意识,有利于形成跨文化交际能力。 四学习方式设计: 个体探究。 在完成较简单直观的任务时以个体探究为主,鼓励学生有独立自主的思维意识。 合作学习。 当面对难度较大的学习任务时鼓励学生采取小组合作的方式,这是因为“合作学习”更方便英语的交流和体验,有利于培养学生与他人合作的能力,同时信息差异也更能激燃起学生的“创新火花”。 五教学策略及教法设计:

Body language 课文

Yesterday, another student and I, representing our university's student association, went to the Capital International Airport to meet this year's international students. They were coming to study at Beijing University. We would take them first to their dormitories and then to the student canteen. After half an hour of waiting for their flight to arrive, I saw several young people enter the waiting area looking around curiously. I stood for a minute watching them and then went to greet them. The first person to arrive was Tony Garcia from Colombia, closely followed by Julia Smith from Britain. After I met them and then introduced them to each other, I was very surprised. Tony approached Julia, touched her shoulder and kissed her on the cheek! She stepped back appearing surprised and put up her hands, as if in defence. I guessed that there was probably a major misunderstanding. Then Akira Nagata from Japan came in smiling, together with George Cook from Canada. As they were introduced, George reached his hand out to the Japanese student. Just at that moment, however, Akira bowed so his nose touched George's moving hand. They both apologized - another cultural mistake! Ahmed Aziz, another international student, was from Jordan. When we met yesterday, he moved very close to me as I introduced myself. I moved back a bit, but he came closer to ask a question and then shook my

1 A walk to convey power; a greeting that gets the upper hand; a gesture that can hide a lie, body language can betray us. When a president is under pressure, or a celebrity is in the media glare, look beyond the words, their body language says it all. This is a certain poise, self-touch gesture, hot spot, or micro-expressions. In this special, experts will dissect the body, the face and the voice—It’s about our country. —to reveal its hidden meanings, its secrets. This is a world where what we say is all important. — They said this day would never come. —We hang on every word.—Tomorrow we begin again. Thank you. —But are we getting all the message — Older, darker, mean psychopaths, serial killers hang around… Research has shown that just 7% of human communication is through the actual words. 93% of what we communicate with others is non-verbal.— Bang, bang, bang! —93%! Think about that. 93%! So it’s our tone of voice, our pitch, our posture, micro-expressions on our face and different gestures that we might use. So we put all the

P2语篇领悟答案 1.cultures 2.own 3.a 4.they5.may 6.each7.women8.with9.in10.feelings P4 用本单元所学词组、句型翻译下列短文 身体语言是与人交流的一种方式。然而,并非所有的人都可以用同一种身体语言进行交流,有着不同文化背景的人们对彼此的手势很有可能产生误会。比如,我们向某人点头时表示我们同意他的观点,但在有些国家点头表示的是反对;我们认为交谈时正视别人表示我们在认真倾听,但在有些地区却意味着敌视。即使在同一个国家的不同地区也会有不同的身体语言。因此,如果你身在国外,了解当地的身体语言是非常重要的。 Body language is a way of communication. However,not everybody can use the same body language to communicate with others. People from different cultures may misunderstand the gestures they use. For example,when we nod at somebody we mean we agree to his opinion. But in some countries nodding one's head means disagreement. We will look at somebody in the eye to show that we are listening to him attentively,while in some districts,it means hostility. People may have different body languages even if they live in the same country. Therefore it is very important for you to have a good understanding of the body languages there if you are in a foreign country.

必修四unit 4 body language课文翻译

沟通:没问题吗? 昨天,我和另一个学生代表我们大学的学生会去首都国际机场迎接今年的国际学生。他们是来北京大学学习的。我们会先带他们去宿舍,然后去学生餐厅。等了半个小时后,他们的航班到了,我看见几个年轻人进入等候区,好奇地环顾四周。观察了他们一分钟后, 我便过去和他们打招呼。 第一个到达的是来自哥伦比亚的托尼·加西亚。紧接着是来自英国的朱丽.亚史密斯。在与他们碰面并介绍他们彼此认识后,我(对看到的情景)感到很吃惊。托尼走近朱莉娅,摸了摸她的肩膀,并亲吻了她的脸颊! 她后退了几步,看上去有些吃惊,她举起双手,仿佛在自卫。我猜想这里可能有个大的误会。然后日本的永田明笑着走了进来,同时来的还有来自加拿大的乔治.库克。我为他们作了介绍后,乔治把手伸向了这位日本学生。然而,就在那时田永明鞠了一躬,所以他的鼻子碰到了乔治伸过来的手。他们互相道歉——这又是一个文化上的误会! 另一个国际学生艾哈迈德·阿齐兹,来自约旦。我们昨天见面,我作自我介绍的时候,他靠我很近。我往后退一点,但他又走向前问了我一个问题,然后同我握手。当来自法国来的达琳.库隆从门口匆忙进来时,她认出了托尼·加西亚微笑的面孔。他们握了握手,然后在对方的面颊上吻了两下,因为法国成年人见到熟人就是这样做的。相反,艾哈迈德阿齐兹只是朝女孩子们点了点头。来自中东或其他一些穆斯林国家的男士在谈话时通常站得离其他男士很近,但一般不会和女士接触。 随着认识的国际朋友越来越多,我也了解到更多不同文化背景下的“身体语言”。各种文化背景下人们互致问候的方式不尽相同,相互接触和相互所感到舒适的程度也并不一样。用口头语言交流的同时,人们还使用不出声的语言,通过身体间的距离、动作或姿势来表达他们的感情。比如, 英国人通常不会站在离别人很近的地方,也不会一见面就(用身体)触碰陌生人。不过,来自西班牙、意大利或南美国家的人会站在离别人很近的地方,而且更可能(用身体)接触对方。现在世界上大多数人见面要互握手问候,但有些文化(背景的人)会使用另外一些寒暄方式。比如日本就更喜欢鞠躬。 这些行为都无所谓好坏,只不过是文化发展的不同方式而已。然而,我发现肢体语言的文化风俗是多元的——同一种(民族)文化中也并非所有成员的行为都一样。但总的来说,在当今文化交融的世界,学习不同国家的习俗肯定能帮助我们避免交往中的困难。
