课时：第 6 课时 设计者： 课题：The Beauty of Nature 课型：阅读课
一、教学设计与说明
1. 文本分析
本文属于“人与自然”主题语境下的“自然生态”主题群。主题语境的内容要求为“自然环 境保护”，以及“人类生存、社会发展与环境的关系”。本文是一篇记叙文，开篇作者感伤 自然环境遭到破坏，遗憾人类的子孙后代会错失现有的自然宝藏；第三段开始作者提出，
除了要保护自然，使其可持续发展之外，更要懂得欣赏自然之美；其后三段作者运用生动 形象的细节，描绘出自然带给人类感官上美的享受，并告诉读者，自然之美可以改变人类 的心境，甚至重塑人类的内心世界，带来新的希望；最后一段运用排比的修辞手法描绘了 人与自然和谐共处的美丽图景，点明人类应该对自然充满感激，通过学会欣赏自然之美来 塑造我们更加强大美好的内心世界。本文的语言优美，运用了较多的排比句式和细节描写， 给读者以美的享受的同时，有力地传达出作者的情感倾向。本文的主题意义是让学生对自 然充满感恩，学会欣赏自然之美，从而更好地来保护环境。
2. 教学设计思路
该语篇为记叙文，景的描述生动具体，但情的描述却相对抽象。教学过程中需要把景 和情有机结合，让学生能有代入感地品味咀嚼作者优美的文笔，从而激发学生对自然环境 的热爱，增强环境保护意识。
文本理解的第一部分以 mind-map 的形式呈现，梳理文章脉络，检验学生理解。第一 第二两段以提问和句型解读的方式带领学生感悟作者对自然环境遭到破坏的伤怀。第二部 分主要以图片欣赏的形式给学生提供视觉上的享受，带领学生在图片的引导下用文中优美 的文字来描述图片信息和相对应的情感。最后一段以讨论和分享的方式点明人类应该对自 然充满感激，并抛出问题 Is the author calling on us to preserve nature or appreciate nature Why 激发学生深入思考作者的意图和人与自然的关系。最后请学生学以致用，利用文中 所学句型和表达来描述自然美景和个人情感。
