Things I wish I had known when I was younger
By Adrian Savage
Most people learn over time, but often learning comes too late to be fully useful. There are certainly many things that I know now that would have been extremely useful to me earlier in my life; things that could have saved me from many of the mistakes and hurts I suffered over the years—and most of those that I caused others to be suffered too.
I don’t buy the romantic idea that my life has been somehow richer or more interesting; nor that the mistakes were “put” there to help me learn. I made them myself — through fear, and a stupid wish to have everyone like me — and life and work would have been less stressful and more enjoyable without them. So here are some of the things I wish I had learned long ago. I hope they may help a few of you avoid the mistakes that I made back then.
Most of it doesn’t matter. So much of what I got excited about, anxious about, or wasted my time and energy on, turned out not to matter. There are only a few things that truly count for a happy life. I wish I had known to concentrate on those and ignore the rest.
Waiting to do something until you can be sure of doing it exactly right means waiting for ever. One of the greatest advantages anyone can have is the willingness to make a fool of themselves publicly and often. There’s no better way to learn and develop. Heck, it’s fun too.
____________________①________________________.You can be a cheap imitation of the ideal of the moment; or you can be a unique individual. The choice is yours. Religion isn’t the opiate of the masses, fashion is.
If people complain that you’re too fond of going your own way, you must be on the right track. Who wants to live life as a herd animal? The guys in power want you to stop causing them problems and follow their orders. You can’t have the freedom to be yourself and meekly fit in at the same time.
____________________②________________________. The worst way to spend your time is spreading more. People who spread gossip are the plague-carriers of our day. Cockroaches are clean, kindly creatures in comparison.

Besides, you can never really know what others do want, so a good deal of whatever you do in that regard will go to waste. Be comforted. Those who love you will probably love you regardless, and they are the ones whose opinions are worth caring about. The rest aren’t worth five minutes of thought between them.
Every winner is destined to be a loser in due course. It’s great to be up on the winner’s platform. Just don’t imagine you can stay there for ever. Worst of all is being determined to do so, by any means available.
Everything takes twice as long as you plan for and produces results about half as good as you hoped. There’s no reason to be downhearted about this. Just allow for it and move on. .

备注:教材修改思路:
保留了原始材料当中贴近学生生活经历,能够让学生引起共鸣的十个要点。此外,还考虑到IA选修模块中阅读文章的长度和难度,对原文进行了删减和修改。
结合09年浙江英语新高考IB模块的考查模式,设计了五选四的阅读任务。
阅读中输入是为了输出,新的语言输入多少决定了语言输出的多少。因此在阅读中设计了词汇与意思匹配的练习,为了最终的写作作铺垫。之后的讨论部分是一种输出方式,同时也是为写作作铺垫。
阅读作为一种语言输入方式,最终是为了语言输出。于是,在教学过程中设计写作环节。

一、设计思想
英语是一门应用性的学科。语言学习的最终目的是为了应用。而阅读作为一种语言学习的主要输入方式,最终是为了语言的输出。本堂课的设计思路是让学生在对文章进行深层次的理解之后,最终能够以书面的形式表达自己对于本文的读后感,从而达到读与写的有效结合。这样,不仅培养了学生在大量语言信息中有效筛选重要信息的阅读能力,更进一步促进了学生批判性思维能力和运用语言做事的能力的发展。真正让学生“在做中学,在学中做”,成为一个高效的学习者。《高中英语课程标准》要求培养学生英语综合语言运用能力,涉及五个层面(语言技能、语言知识、情感态度、学习策略和文化意识)。本堂课中旨在培养学生的语言知识,语言技能,情感态度以及贯穿课堂始终的学习策略的培养。
二、教材分析
该阅读材料来源于英国作家Adrian Savage写的Things I wish I had known when I was younger,为原版材料,主题为人生中年轻时未曾做到的十五件事情。在文中作者写了自己在生活不同方面的人生感悟。该文章难度比较大,生词较多,如果把原文原封不动地呈现给学生,学生很难准确而快速地理解文章。
在分析教材内容和估计桐乡市高级中学高二学生的语言基础和能力的前提下, 本人对教材做了大胆的删减和适当的改动处理。只保留原文中作者提到的十五件事情当中的十件,供学生阅读,学习和思考。通过文章的学习,学生能够初步体会和领悟作者感悟到的事情。能通过阅读讨论,了解相互之间对于这些感悟所产生的共鸣。从而能够促使学生将学到的东西运用于生活实践。
三、学情分析
高二学生已完成高中英语必修一至五模块的学习,通过会考,已基本达到了七级目标要求,掌握了大量的单词、句型,培养了一定的语感。能读懂供高中生供高中学生阅读的英文原著简写本及英语报刊。能就熟悉的话题交流信息,陈述自己的观点和想法。而桐乡高级中学的学生整体水平较高,因此他们能够完成我所设计的课堂内容,能够就这个话题展开讨论,并写出有自己独到见解的小文章。

??? 本部分旨在培养学生通过自主阅读,合作探索,来获取有关知识,扩大他们的词汇量,提高阅读能力。与作者提出的十件事情产生共鸣,并且能将作者的建议运用到实际的学习生活当中。
五、重点难点
教学重点:1. 掌握本篇课文的重要词汇及其在最后写作环节中运用。

3. 怎样以阅读课的教学为依托,训练学生的听、说、读、写能力,特别是写作能力。
4. 如何引导学生通过课文十件事情的理解和探讨,总结一些可供学习生活实践参考的准则,促进学生自主学习。
六、教学策略

2.小组合作讨论及汇报。
3.独立完成写作及评价。
七、课前准备
1. 学生的学习准备
如果许可的话,给学生适当的任务,作为上阅读与写作课的热身。
2. 教师的教学准备
教材的处理:① 保留了原始材料当中贴近学生生活经历,能够让学生引起共鸣的十个要点。此外,还考虑到IA选修模块中阅读文章的长度和难度,对原文进行了删减和修改。②结合09年浙江英语新高考IB模块的考查模式,设计了五选四的阅读任务。③阅读中输入是为了输出,新的语言输入多少决定了语言输出的多少。因此在阅读中设计了词汇与意思匹配的练习,为了最终的写作作铺垫。之后的讨论部分是一种输出方式,同时也是为写作作铺垫。④阅读作为一种语言输入方式,最终是为了语言输出。于是,在教学过程中设计写作环节,有了读写结合的设计思路。
