选修三Unit4 Adversity and Courage教案设计
单元主题
本单元的中心话题是歌颂坚韧不拔的顽强精神,比如:不怕困难,勇往直前,持之以恒,坚持不懈,以及团结合作、积极乐观,渴望挑战和冒险的精神等。语言技能和语言知识都是根据这一中心话题设计的。
Reading部分讲述的是一个真实的南极探险故事。1914年以沙克尔顿爵士为首的28名勇士搭乘“持久号”前往南极探险。这次探险被称为一次“成功的失败”。说失败,是因为他们还没到目的地船就沉了,没有完成探险任务;说成功,是因为全船的人意志坚强,团结一致,克服了种种难以想象的困难,最终奇迹般全部生还。文章作者以第一人称的方式生动的描写了亲身经历的这次探险。教师引导学生阅读时,重点注意他们在遇险时采取了那些措施以摆脱险境,尤其注意作为一船之长的沙克尔顿在整个过程中所起的领导作用。
