摘要:
该初中英语课件围绕Unit 8“Culture Shapes Us”展开,聚焦文化差异主题,通过情景交际(中西方送礼习惯对话)导入,知识点从词汇(如tradition, manner)、语法(deal with/do with辨析)到语篇(短文填空、阅读表达),构建从基础到提升的学习支架,帮助学生逐步掌握文化相关语言知识。
其亮点在于融合文化意识与语言能力培养,通过韩国送礼忌红色、印度用右手送礼等中外文化习俗案例,及“ahorita”的多义性等语言文化现象,引导学生理解文化差异,提升跨文化沟通能力。练习设计注重思维品质,如阅读表达题需分析推断文化现象,助力学生增强文化理解和语言运用能力,也为教师提供系统的文化主题教学素材,提升教学效率。

When you give a gift to someone, it tells them that they are special to you. We give and receive gifts for many occasions(场合), like birthdays, Mother’s Day, etc. In fact, gift giving is so necessary to our world that many countries have developed interesting traditions around it. Here are some of the most interesting ones.
South Korea
In South Korea, you must always use both hands when giving or receiving a gift. New Year greeting cards or gifts are never with a mainly red colour, as it is used for

announcing funerals(宣告葬礼). Also, don’t give gifts that come in sets of four as they stand for death there.
India
When giving a gift in India, you should always use your right hand. Using the left hand is impolite as that hand is considered unclean. If giving money in India, try to give a sum(金额) that ends with 1. Odd numbers(奇数) are seen as very lucky in India. The number 1 is especially lucky as it means a new beginning.
