《初中英语九年级全一册》Unit 6 Lesson 18 Steve Jobs
教材分析
本课是北师大版《初中英语》九年级教材第6单元第18课，该单元的话题为模范和榜样，本课Lesson18的主题是成功人士如何获得成功。本文是一篇关于Steve Jobs的人物传记类文章。文章首先介绍了Steve Jobs是何许人-----他是当今世界最具价值的苹果公司的合作创始人，他创造了当今世界无数人日常生活都离不开的众多电子产品。紧接着作者分三个段落围绕他的早年生活和教育经历、早期工作和之后的成就、他的性格及与人相处的方式等三个方面讲述了他的生平，最后是作者对他的评价。
本篇人物传记以时间为轴，从出生和教育经历、到早期工作和取得的进展，以及个人性格特点等，采用过去时态展开陈述，凸显出Steve的成功之路并不一帆风顺。从家庭看，他从出生就遭到遗弃，从教育看，他很聪明但并不适合正规教育，又因家庭无力支付学费被迫停学，他设法又坚持学习了18个月，但始终也没有拿到一张文凭。从工作看，他于1976年与两位朋友合伙创办了苹果计算机公司，但是第一个产品不成功，到1985年他被解雇了。他没有放弃，而是又创办了另外一家计算机公司，之后还创建了一家电影公司，他的电影公司获得了很多奥斯卡奖，并且出品了多部成功的电影，包括：Toy Story, WALL-E and Up。 当他1996年再回到苹果公司后，他改变了公司的很多东西，使之成为了一个在国际范围都有广泛影响力的企业。从性格上看，他是一个善于组织团队工作领导，但是同时又脾气暴躁、固执己见、不能容忍不同意见。
本文的明线是Steve Jobs的生平，记录了他的人生轨迹，也记录了他是如何走向成功的。作者并没有用很多笔墨记录他成功背后的原因，而是以暗线方式铺垫了成功的因素，引导出他的坚持和不放弃的性格是促成他成功的根本原因。文中值得探讨的问题还有，Steve没有文凭，但是却获得了成功；他不仅做计算机，还创办了电影公司，他的性格的两个方面等，都可以引导学生联系自己进行思考和讨论。
本文的难点在于动词以及动词词组比较多，比如 found, suit, afford, fire, state, recognise, give up, set up, grow up, put up with。教学围绕传记写作的五个方面展开，完成对内容的梳理和信息建构，在信息建构的过程中，融入语言（词组和句型）学习和阅读及表达技能的训练，从表层信息到深层分析原因，促进学生的对人生困境和成功的思考，对人生观和价值观的讨论。
第一课时的重点是阅读理解文章，获取文章的主要信息。在明确主题的前提下，从传记文体入手激活学生有关传记文体类的知识。学生分享他们所知道的Steve，教师根据需要引入关键信息和表达方式。然后，教师提出问题，为什么Steve能够获得成功？他有什么特殊经历？以此引导学生开展整体阅读，把握总体结构大意。再进入细节信息的提取，请学生特别注意第二段的第一句话，鼓励学生找到相关的支持证据，适时提出深层次问题，并创造机会让学生之间加强交流、进行归纳和总结，建构有关Steve的结构化知识，辅之以提问和多种活动巩固对信息和表达方式的把握。在此基础上内化和整合。
第二课时在小组辩论“Steve Jobs是否是青少年的榜样？”的任务中进行。在回顾作者对Steve Jobs的评价基础上，开展词汇教学，培养学生在语境中理解词汇的技能，通过在单句、篇章中回填词汇，达成词汇运用的目标，为完成任务储备语言素材。输出阶段定位为让学生通过深层次问题“Steve Jobs是否是青少年的榜样？”的讨论，引导深度学习、思维发展和正确价值观的建立。
