摘要:
该高中英语课件围绕“身边事物”主题,以T-shirt的旅程为核心线索,通过导入环节的pair work(讨论T恤数量、购买习惯及产地)连接学生生活,读前预测文本类型与目的,读中用表格梳理其从乌兹别克斯坦棉田到尼日利亚市场的全旅程,构建从生活观察到文本深度分析的学习支架。
其亮点在于融合语言能力(通过复合名词、短语动词练习提升表达与理解)、文化意识(展示不同国家生产环境与劳工问题,培养社会责任感)和思维品质(T-shirt旅程表格分析、mini-project调查产品影响,锻炼分析能力)。采用任务型教学(pair/group work、深度阅读、项目调查),评估表自评目标达成,作业结合口语记录与写作描述。学生能提升语言运用与跨文化理解,教师可依托清晰结构落实核心素养,提高教学效率。

The T-shirt’s journey What happens to the T-shirt? Who are the people involved in this journey? What are their lives like?
the cotton field in Uzbekistan
Cotton for the T-shirt is grown, watered and picked here; harmful chemicals are used.
Farmers like Feruza. They work 10-12 hours a day in over 30°C temperatures, get very little pay, and their eyes may be hurt by harmful chemicals.
a tiny factory in Mumbai, India
The cotton is made into the T-shirt here.
20 adults and 5 children. They work in a factory without air conditioning; adults make the T-shirts while children check them, facing poor working conditions.
a huge discount shop in the UK
The finished T-shirt is sold here at a low price.
Shoppers like 15-year-old Ryan. They don’t care where the clothes come from, just want to look good without spending much money.
Yaba market in Nigeria
The second-hand T-shirt is put on sale here for $3.
Shop owner Abeke and local young men. Abeke sells cheap second-hand clothes from America and Europe; the young man can only afford $1.50 for the T-shirt.

Deep reading
Work in pairs and discuss the questions.
(1) Is it important to know where your clothes come from? Why or why not?
(2) If you buy one fewer T-shirt, will it make any difference? Why or why not?
Yes, it is. Because knowing where clothes come from can make us aware of the working conditions of the workers and the environmental impact of production, which helps us make more responsible shopping choices.
Yes, it will. If everyone buys one fewer T-shirt, it will reduce the demand for clothing production, which in turn saves a large amount of water and resources, and reduces the exploitation of workers and child labor.

Mini-project
Jeans
Making jeans is a major economic industry in some developing countries. It involves designing, washing, cutting and packaging. This is a source of income for local people. On the other hand, the washing process produces wastewater. If it goes directly into rivers without proper treatment, they may later turn blue, smell strange and become poisonous. This will have a harmful effect on people’s drinking water as well as their farmland.
Shoes
Shoes are usually designed in developed countries and produced in developing countries. Workers in shoe factories often work long hours for low pay, and the production process may produce a lot of wastewater that pollutes the environment. For consumers, cheap shoes are affordable, but many people throw away old shoes quickly, leading to waste. When reporting, we can share these points and call on everyone to buy fewer shoes and recycle old ones.
