II. Supporting sentences
Exercise 1
The Chinese character 青 is an interesting word because you can hardly tell what the color exactly is. Sure, in most cases it means green, such as 青草 (green grass), 青山 (green mountains), and 青菜 (green vegetables). It’s the color of spring, as the ancient Chinese dictionary defines qing as “birth”, so the word 青春, literally translated to “green spring”, means youth. But sometimes qing is blue, and it comes from the words of a Confucian philosopher named Xunzi, who says, “Qing comes from blue, yet better than blue”, which has become a fixed expression used to describe how the student could outperform the teacher. What’s more, qing may also be used to describe color black. For example, 青丝 means black hair and 青衣 describes a main female role in the Chinese opera, because most of them wear black clothing. By By By By
Question: Can the writer introduce the meaning of black first Why
Exercise 2
Topic sentence: A simple Chinese word “chi” (to eat) has a lot of extended meanings. Supporting sentences:
□ As the Chinese saying goes, “People can’t do without food.”
□ Chinese people’s love or concern for food has lent many colourful expressions to their mother tongue.
□ The word sometimes goes beyond its literal meaning. For example, “chimoshui” means “to receive education” instead of “to eat ink,” and “chicu” means “to be jealous” rather than “to eat vinegar.”
□ It can be referred to as “to depend on.” For instance, “chilaobao” means “to live on labour security funds” and “kaoshan chishan” means “those living in a mountainous area depend on the mountains for a living.”

一、教学设计与说明
1. 教学目标
本课为本单元的第 5 课时，核心目标为培养学生在书面表达中运用细节支撑 主题句和口语表达中吸引听众注意力。
2. 设计思路
该板块含有两个任务，一是学生围绕“有趣的汉字”学写扩展句，形成段落。 二是学生根据所写段落进行口头介绍，学习运用打招呼和提问的方式开场吸引听 众注意。围绕题眼“有趣”二字，学生将学习通过举例、解释、引用等方式撰写 扩展句，并按合理的顺序展开形成段落。教材内提供了 4 个有关“吃”的句子让 学生就主题句选择合适的扩展句，并进行段落排序。为了让学生更直观地感受举 例、解释、引用等方式的效果， 教师可适当补充段落范例，让学生整体理解扩展 句的写作方法。在段落书写的基础上， 口语环节训练学生能使用打招呼和提问的 方式开场，自然地介绍一个“有趣的汉字”。由于这是学生在高中阶段第一次进 行演讲，教师可提供演讲视频，让学生观察和模仿演讲者的语速和体态等。
本节课中学生需要当堂完成短文撰写，文中所包含的文化背景可能描写不够 准确和详实，因而学生可在课后继续查阅资料完善短文内容，并依据口头表达的 评价量表进行演讲彩排，提高口语表达能力。

in
most
cases
it
means
green,
such
as
青草
(green
grass),
青山
(green mountains),
and
青菜
(green

Chinese
dictionary
defines
qing
as
“birth
”,
so
the
word
青春
,
literally translated to
“green
spring”, means youth.
But
sometime
s
qing
is blue,
and
it
comes
from
the
words
of
a
Con

philosopher
named
Xunzi,
who
says,
“Qing
comes
from
blue

yet
better

What’s
more,
qing

be used to describe color black. For example,
青丝
means

青衣
describes a main female role in the Chinese
opera, because

them wear black clothing.
