Step I学习理解
活动一:感知与注意
1. Brainstorm.
Before listening, ask students to discuss the following questions with their partners.
What is a healthy lifestyle
What bad habits do you think concern young people ethe most Make a list of good habits of a healthy lifestyle. Then give your reasons why you think they are important.
Suggested answers:
A healthy lifestyle is more than just diet and exercise. It’s not just about being physically fit and free from any health abnormalities but also having a happy and well-balanced physical, mental, and social life.
They might be smoking, drinking alcohol, playing smart phone or games too much, oversleeping, eating too much junk food, not sleeping enough and so on.(略)
2. Discuss.
Ask students to look at the pictures on Page 18 and. discuss the following question.
What choices or preferences make it easier for people to develop these bad habits
Suggested answers:
①Choosing to stay up too late playing computer games can mean that one does not sleep enough.
②Preferring to play games or use social media on phones can make it easier for people to use them too much.
③Choosing to eat when one feels bored or depressed can lead to overeating.
④Choosing to buy many things one wants and not things one needs can lead to overspending.
⑤Staying up too late and not sleeping enough can lead one to drink too much coffee the next day.
【设计意图】在听力之前,让学生讨论与健康的生活方式、良好的习惯及不良习惯形成的原因等有关的话题,有助于激活学生对单元主题内容的兴趣。
活动二:获取与梳理
1. Complete the chart.
Ask students to listen to the conversation and complete the chart below.
Student 1 Student 2
Problem
Cue
Routine
Reward / /
Suggested answers:
Student 1
Problem: Has trouble sleeping because of using the phone before going to sleep
Cue: Going to bed
Routine: Don’t keep the phone in the room so you won’t pick it up before bed
Student 2
Problem: Feels depressed about being a little overweight
Cue: Finishing dinner
Routine: Walk outside for just 5 minutes
2. Answer the questions.
Ask students to listen again and answer the questions.
Why is a good night’s sleep important for the first student
Why does the second student never exercise
What is the expert’s bad habit Do you think it is a health problem
What would you advise the expert to do to control this habit
Suggested answers:
A good night’s sleep is important because it will help with their schoolwork.
Because he always picks up his phone instead of exercising.
The expert drinks too much coffee. It can be a health problem because too much is bad for the heart and can cause headache and other problems.
I would suggest that the expert change the habit slowly by drinking smaller cups of weaker coffee, and then try to change coffee for another drink. Later he should do more exercise as this can stimulate the body like coffee does but has more positive benefits.
3. Facts or opinions.
(1) Learning strategy.
Go through the sentences and make sure students understand their meanings.
(2) Decide whether these statements from the conversation are facts (F) or opinions (O).
①________ It was a really interesting talk. ②________ It often takes me half an hour to fall asleep at night. ③________ You look tired. Not enough sleep, right ④________ It is affecting my schoolwork. ⑤________ I failed in all my school subjects this semester. ⑥________ I usually pick up my phone. ⑦________ I think the phone is the problem. ⑧________ A five-minute walk is so easy that it is hard to say no!
Suggested answers:
①O ②F ③O ④F ⑤F ⑥F ⑦O ⑧O
【设计意图】通过完成表格、回答问题和判断活动,学生获取听力材料的相关细节信息,有助于单元主题意义的理解,也有利于口语活动的开展。
Step Ⅱ 应用实践
活动三:分析与判断
Ask students to work in pairs and discuss the opinions in last activity with a partner and see if they agree on them. Have students give some suggestions for the problems.
【设计意图】在听力之后,让学生讨论自己是否同意听力材料中的观点并尝试给出自己的建议,有助于对听力材料的深入理解,也有助于提高学生对听力深度理解的能力。
活动四:描述与阐释
1. Choose a bad habit.
Ask students to choose a bad habit from the following pictures and have a conversation with their partner about it. The expressions below may help them.
sleeping too much Internet addict
overeating staying up too late
game addict overspending
TV addict smoking
2. Learn language.
(1) Ask students to read the following structures.
Asking for and giving advice My problem is... I’m having problems with... I cannot stop. Please give me some advice about... I think/ believe you should... So, why don’t you... Well, have you thought about... In my opinion, …
Accepting and refusing advice Sure, I’l1 do that. That’s a good idea! That's just what I need! Lovely! Great! Terrific idea! Sorry, but I... I’d like/ love to..., but… That’s a good idea, but... Thank you for telling me, but… It’s a nice thought, but… I cannot...because…
(2) Ask students to make a conversation about asking for and giving advice.
Example
A: I think I'm watching too much TV.
B: Yeah. Me too.
C: In my opinion, you should spend your time on something more active instead. For example, try to get more exercise.
B: OK, sure, I’ll try that.
A: That’s a nice thought, but I don’t really enjoy exercising.
C: Hmm. How about reading more books instead
A: All right, maybe I can try that.
【设计意图】在口语对话之前,教师给学生提供一些图片以及请求和提供建议﹑接受和拒绝建议的句型,为口语活动提供了语境和语言结构,使得学生有话可说。在这个过程实现了所学语言的内化,提高了学生的语言表达能力,深化了对主题的认识。
