摘要:
该高中英语课件围绕“自然平衡与环境污染”展开,核心知识点包括污染类型、不同社会角色对污染的态度及环保措施。课堂导入先复习生态系统、物种等词汇,通过头脑风暴引导学生列举全球变暖、水污染等污染类型,再以电视节目 transcript 为文本,设计快速阅读分析角色及对话邀请方式,详细阅读探究居民、工厂经理和环保委员会的态度与理由,搭建从词汇积累到文本理解再到批判性分析的学习支架。
其亮点在于融合语言能力与思维品质培养,通过分析居民James因污染导致生活质量下降的不满态度、工厂经理Vincent强调减排措施与经济贡献的辩护观点,引导学生推断不同立场的理由,提升文本分析和逻辑推断能力。采用任务型阅读和小组讨论,结合“reduce, reuse and recycle”等实际行动指导,增强学生环保责任感与社会参与意识,帮助教师高效开展读写结合教学,助力学生语言应用能力与批判性思维发展。

1. Find out the attitude of James Smith
2. Why?
Detailed reading
Paragraph 3
SMITH: It's been awful, really. When I first moved
here, the air was fresh, the grass green and the
water clear. Then heavy industry factories moved in, and things became entirely different. I don't enjoy outdoor activities any more. The river is dirty and smelly. The smog in the air has coloured the sky a smoky grey; it's also given me a cough that I can't get rid of. For health and safety reasons alone, heavy industry has to go.

Find out the attitude of many businessmen like Vincent Brown
Detailed reading
BROWN: Well, I'm sorry you feel that way, Mr Smith. People tend to connect factories with pictures of clouds of dirty smoke and irresponsible businessmen eager to make huge profits. In defence of the factories, however, I'd like to point out that we also try to control the amount of pollution we produce. I think I speak for all factory managers when I say we're deeply concerned about the environment. We've been taking various measures, including the use of new technologies, to reduce pollution in the production process, even though these measures raise our production costs. I'd also like
to draw your attention to the economic benefits factories have brought to Norgate. We've created many jobs for local residents and helped the city's economy grow.
Paragraph 5
Points of view
Vincent Brown (1) Factory managers care deeply about the environment and the community. L22
(2) Factories have taken various measures to reduce pollution, even though these measures raise their production costs. L23
(3) Factories have helped Norgate’s economy and created job opportunities for local residents. L26
Read paragraph 7
What have the committee done to protect the environment in Norgate?
Detailed reading
ARCHER: Well, our committee has a major role to play in maintaining air and water quality. We have to achieve a balance between environmental protection and economic development. We've made environmental policies for businesses to observe, like strict clean-up requirements. We also work hand in hand with other branches of government to ensure that development strategies are followed in an environmentally friendly way. However, fighting pollution isn't just a task for factories and the government. It has to be a community-wide effort, and everyone can help by following the golden rule: reduce, reuse and recycle. For example, you can save energy by taking the bus or the subway, or using the bike-sharing system.
Paragraph 7
1. What measures can we take to improve the environment?
2. Do you think things will change significantly in the future? Work in groups and describe what the world will be like 20 years from now.
Pollution is a serious problem around the world, and much effort has been put into the fight against it.
1. For government, ...
2. For senior managers of local factories, ...
3. For our senior high school students, ...
You can answer the first Q from many perspectives...
Sample answer:
I predict that the world will be much cleaner and greener in 20 years. First, cars running on traditional fuels will be replaced by those powered by new energies, such as electricity or solar energy. As a result, the effect of greenhouse gases on the climate will be significantly reduced. Second, almost all reading and writing will be done on computer and phone screens, so people will cut down fewer trees and use less paper. Third, new technologies will be invented to make sure that our daily activities do not have a negative impact on the environment.
