1 MODULE 4 UNIT 4 BODY LANGUAGE
必修4 第四单元 身势语 第二课时：COMMUNICATIONS:NO PROBLEM?

2 教材分析 本节课是第四单元的第二课时，是一篇阅读文章。以机场迎接客人为场景，讲述了来自几个不同国家的学生由于文化背景的差异，在初次见面时互相问候的方式迥然不同而造成的一些小误会，形象地表明了身势语与文化背景的密切关系，以及身势语在人们日常交际中的重要作用。这篇文章的写作方式颇有特色，可以让学生在阅读的过程中，很自然地以“你”自己的身份去观察、倾听在机场发生的一切。

3 教学目标 知识目标：让学生理解文章所述内容，掌握课文知识要点和approach,likely,defense等重点单词和词组。
能力目标：能用自己的语言复述课文内容，了解不同国家由于文化的差异而出现的不同问候方式；讨论并陈述跨文化交际的意义和困难。 情感目标：接受并尊重每个国家的文化，提高学生对英语国家文化的兴趣，培养学生自主探究的能力。

4 课文重点、难点和关键点 重点：掌握课文新的单词（如：represent/ approach/ major等）和新的短语（如：in defense/ be likely to do等）的意义。 关键点：全面透彻理解整篇文章；学会新的语言表达方式。 难点：运用所学语言表达方式根据所提供素材进行讨论，口头表述在跨国际文化交流过程中如何正确应对出现的困难。

5 教法与学法 根据我的教学对象，为了更好地实现教学目标，以新课程提倡的三维教学观（呈现、操练、实践）为原则，采取了直观呈现教学、任务型教学、整体语言教学、合作学习教学的方法； 在教学过程中指导学生抓重点、鼓励学生互相交流探讨并勇于表达自己观点，并引导学生主动拓宽学习渠道，把英语学习从课堂延伸到课外。
