《The Chinese Writing System:Connecting the Past and the Present》说课稿 人教版必修第一册Unit 5 LANGUAGES AROUND THE WORLD Respected judges and teachers: Good day! Today, the content of my lesson presentation is "The Chinese Writing System: Connecting the Past and the Present". This article is from Unit 5 LANGUAGES AROUND THE WORLD of Compulsory 1 of People's Education Edition High School English, and the target students are those in Grade 1 of high school. Next, based on the requirements of the core literacy in the new curriculum standard, I will conduct a detailed presentation in terms of textbook analysis, analysis of students' situation, teaching objectives, key and difficult points of teaching, teaching methods and learning methods, teaching procedures, and teaching reflection. Textbook Analysis: "The Chinese Writing System: Connecting the Past and the Present" focuses on the Chinese writing system with profound cultural background and historical inheritance. Through a unique perspective and in-depth elaboration, this article leads students to trace the long process of the evolution of Chinese characters from ancient times to the present. The textbook presents the rich variations of Chinese character forms clearly, ranging from the mysterious oracle bone script, the elegant seal script, to the regular clerical script and the dignified regular script. Moreover, the article also deeply analyzes the irreplaceable and crucial role that the Chinese writing system plays in inheriting Chinese culture, maintaining national emotions, and promoting social development. In terms of language knowledge, the text covers a wide range of difficult vocabularies, such as "evolution", "significant", "contribute to", etc., as well as complex sentence structures and diverse grammar usages. This provides students with rich language learning materials and helps improve their language comprehension and expression abilities. In addition, the article is well-structured and logically organized. Through reasonable paragraph division and transition, students can gradually understand and master the development context and core points of the Chinese writing system. This not only helps cultivate students' reading comprehension abilities but also guides them to learn and imitate excellent writing techniques and textual structures. In conclusion, this article is not only high-quality material for language learning but also an important carrier for cultivating students' cultural awareness and thinking abilities, which is of great significance for improving students' comprehensive English literacy. Analysis of Students' Situation: After the English learning in junior high school, students in Grade 1 of high school have acquired a certain amount of basic vocabulary and initial abilities in listening, speaking, reading, and writing. They are full of curiosity and eagerness for new knowledge, and possess certain autonomous learning abilities and logical thinking abilities. However, when it comes to such a complex and abstract topic as the Chinese writing system, students may lack in-depth understanding and systematic knowledge. In their daily cognition, Chinese characters are more regarded as a communication tool, while they may not have conducted in-depth thinking and exploration on the profound historical and cultural connotations, artistic values, and far-reaching influences on the nation and society behind them. At the same time, although students have been exposed to some English grammar and sentence patterns in junior high school, they still face certain difficulties and challenges in understanding and analyzing complex long and difficult sentences, as well as expressing their viewpoints and ideas accurately and fluently in the English context. In terms of cross-cultural understanding, due to the limitations of life experience and knowledge reserves, students may have difficulty sensitively capturing the differences in writing, language, and thinking patterns between Chinese and Western cultures, and thus need more guidance and inspiration. Teaching Objectives: Based on the requirements of the core literacy in the new curriculum standard, I have formulated the following comprehensive and targeted teaching objectives: Language Ability Objectives: Students can accurately understand and skillfully apply the key vocabularies related to the Chinese writing system in the text, such as "evolution", "significant", "contribute to", "complex", "distinctive", etc., as well as relevant sentence patterns and structures, such as emphasis sentences and attributive clauses, thereby enriching their language expressions and improving the accuracy and richness of the language. Through in-depth reading and analysis of the article, cultivate students' reading skills, such as quickly skimming to obtain the main idea, intensive reading to understand detailed information, reasoning and judging the author's intention, etc., to improve their reading comprehension ability.

Enable them to respect and appreciate the unique values of different cultures and enhance their understanding and tolerance of multiculturalism.
