1 . Teaching material
The topic of this unit is history and traditions. My lesson is the part of Reading and Thinking. The reading text is an expository article about the United Kingdom. Starting from the puzzle about the different names of the country,the text mainly talks about the long and complicated history of the UK as well as the relationship of the four countries.By studying this text, we’ll enable students to know the history and culture of the United Kingdom and develop the interest in the country.
( As we all know, reading belongs to the input during the process of the language learning. The input has a great effect on output, such as speaking and writing.) Therefore, this lesson is in the important position of this unit. If the Ss can master it well, it will be helpful for them to learn the rest of this unit.

16世纪时,邻国威尔士并入英格兰王国。随后,苏格兰在18世纪也加入进来,从而诞生了大不列颠王国。19世纪时,爱尔兰加入,组成了大不列颠及爱尔兰联合王国。最后,在20世纪时,爱尔兰南部脱离了联合王国,形成了今天的英国全称:大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国。大多数人只是使用简称:“联合王国”。联合王国的人被称为“英国人”,这意味着联合王国也经常被称为英国或大不列颠。

英国历史源远流长、别有趣味,等待你去探索,帮助你更加深入地了解这一国家及其传统。英国历史上有四个不同民族在不同历史时期执掌这个国家。无论你身处英国何方,这些民族的遗迹都随处可见。第一族群是古罗马人,于公元一世纪进入英国。罗马人的伟大成就在于他们建立了城镇、修建了道路。之后是安格鲁—撒克逊人,于公元五世纪达英国。他们引入了英语的雏形,并改变了人们建造房屋的方式。维京人于公元八世纪到来,留下了诸多的新的词汇,并给英国境内的许多地方命名。最后一个是诺曼人,11世纪著名的黑斯廷斯战役之后,诺曼人征服了英格兰,四处修建城堡,并改革了法律制度。诺曼人即为法国人,许多法语单词也因此慢慢进入了英语。
