课后所思
阅读时，可分为计时阅读，快速阅读和细节阅读。通过几个层次的阅读理解培养学生的能力，强化读取信息的意识，为巩固和运用知识打下了基础。?
?1.快速阅读（scan）指定的内容（用眼读而不是用嘴读，逐句读而不是逐字读）；??
２．提问好、中、差各层次的学生，问题要围绕中心思想（main?idea）；????
3．细读：布置任务，反复阅读课文，反复思考；?
4．分小组讨论问题答案，然后全班检查答案。
5.鼓励学生用简略的方式表述自己对文章的见解和领会，而不是复述课文；不要纠正学生的语音、语法错误，哪怕比较严重；?
6．在学生对课文理解的基础上，检查学生对生词的猜测情况，既然是猜，能沾边达意就行。??
7．把语言运用到实际生活中去。围绕已学课文开展各种形式的口头交流活动。比如可以复述课文，分角色扮演，讨论某个问题，调查一个项目，采访相关人士、仿写与课文相关的话题等；也可动笔对课文进行改写，列提纲、评述等。具体根据学生的具体情况而定。?
总之，教学方法多种多样，目的都是一致的，那就是以学生发展为本，促进他们的学习习惯和学习能力的提高。

Unit8 Section B ReadingReading skills:
1、 skimming（扫读）
即通过对文章标题和首尾句的阅读，对文章的内容结构有一个整体的印象，让学生在短时间内了解作者的意图或文章所要涉及的问题。
2、 scanning（跳读）
为获得特定的信息而进行的符号辨认的过程，让学生很快能抓住中心句，并能对生词作出猜测，以提高学生自学新单词的能力。
3、 close-reading（细读）
指学生在对全文有个整体印象的前提下所进行的深入细致的阅读，要求了解各段落的主要意思和文章的细节，并在此基础上提出新的问题或观点，发展学生的思维能力。2.
