T:
Comfort
food
let
us
touch
our
tongue.
However,
the
most
important
thing
is
that
it
is
more
than
a
kind
of
food.
It’s
food
for
the
soul.
We
can
express
our
feelings
through
it.
As
Chen
Shou
says,
“Food
is
as
fundamental
to
man
as
the
people
are
to
the
state”.
(国以民为本,民以食为天。)
By
eating
comfort
food,
we
can
keep
a
positive
attitude
towards
our
life.
【设计意图:第一个问题的设置让学生思考作者在写作中所运用的写作手法,鼓励学生在自己的写作中也可以依葫芦画瓢。第二个问题的设置培养学生的思维能力。最后一个任务向同学推荐自己的comfort
food,实现学生对课本知识的一个迁移和创新。这部分是一个很好的分享环节。老师的总结引导学生用正确的态度热爱生活,体现了人与自我的情感升华。】
