教学设想 本节课是以听、说为主的口语教学课。口语教学不仅要做到语言的“输入”，更要强调语言的“输出”，要充分调动起学生对本单元话题的兴趣，使学生“有话可说、有话会说”。教材由四幅图画和三个讨论题组成。首先通过图片展示了四位古今中外的“amazing people”,熟悉的人物能够激发学生的兴趣，让他们“有话可说”。三个讨论话题则引导学生进一步思考这些杰出人士所做的贡献以及他们对社会的影响，并让学生通过小组活动来展示自己心目中的英雄、描述他们的事迹。进而让学生总结出这些人物的共同点，引出“amazing people”的定义。最后引导学生树立“做一个对社会有贡献的人”的理想，达到德育渗透的目的。整堂课密切围绕话题，将一些有深度的话题穿插在图片讨论中，通过各种活动调动每个学生积极参与，使他们“有话会说”，并为下一步的阅读课做好充分的热身准备。

Is this a good thing Sometimes, when Mr. Ballmer and his 16-year-old daughter, Elizabeth, listen to rock music together and talk about interests both enjoy, such as pop culture, he remembers his more distant relationship with his parents when he was a teenager.“I would never have said to my mom, ‘Hey, the new Weezer album is really great. How do you like it ’” says Ballmer. “There was just a complete gap in taste.”Music was not the only gulf. From clothing and hairstyles to activities and expectations, earlier generations of parents and children often appeared to move in separate orbits.Today, the generation gap has not disappeared, but it is getting narrow in many families. Conversations on subjects such as sex and drugs would not have taken place a generation ago. Now they are comfortable and common. And parent—child activities, from shopping to sports, involve a feeling of trust and friendship that can continue int0 adulthood.No wonder greeting cards today carry the message, “To my mother, my best friend.”But family experts warn that the new equality can also result in less respect for parents. “There’s still a lot of strictness and authority on the part of parents out there, but there is a change happening,” says Kerrie, a psychology professor at Lebanon Valley College. “In the middle of that change, there is a lot of confusion among parents.” Family researchers offer a variety of reasons for these evolving roles and attitudes. They see the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication and a more democratic process that encourages everyone to have a say. “My parents were on the ‘before’ side of that change, but today’s parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the ‘after’ side,” explains Mr. Ballmer. “It’s not something easily accomplished by parents these days, because life is more difficult to understand or deal with, but sharing interests does make it more fun to be a parent now.”36. The underlined word gulf in Para.3 most probably means _________.A. interest B. distance C. difference D. separation37. Which of the following shows that the generation gap is disappearing A. Parents help their children develop interests in more activities.B. Parents put more trust in their children’s abilities.C. Parents and children talk more about sex and drugs.D. Parents share more interests with their children.38. The change in today’s parent-child relationship is _________.A. more confusion among parentsB. new equality between parents and childrenC.1ess respect for parents from childrenD. more strictness and authority on the part of parents39. By saying “today’s parents, the 40-year-olds, were on the ‘after’ side.” the author means that today’s parents _________.A. follow the trend of the change B. can set a limit to the changeC. fail to take the change seriously D. have little difficulty adjusting to the change40. The purpose of the passage is to _________.A. describe the difficulties today’s parents have met withB. discuss the development of the parent—child relationshipC. suggest the ways to handle the parent—child pare today’s parent—child relationship with that in the pastVI. Homework1.Write a short passage about your hero or heroine. (100 words or so)2. Write a summary about Howard Carter3. Finish the relative exercises in the Workbook.

16题可见前文有smiled at each other，所以很明显是一起together。
17题出现了破折号，表示後文是对前文的解释，找到能概括后半句一个词即可，也就是goals,　目标。
18题可以参看Challenge的题目Egg Drop所以很自然选dropped over。
19题为固定搭配，抹butter cream, spreading。
20题空后有个词container，而在37题时，破折号后出现了protective container to keep an egg ……表明container是盛装egg并protect egg的，所以40题很明显选择egg，而同时21题即选择protect。
22题属于词义题，将篮子上系上降落伞，attach绑上，附加上。
23题在空前出现了一个表程度的little，因而它所修饰的名词也应该和它表示的程度相一致，从而选fight(口角)而不是challenge（对抗）。
24题通过引号发现应该是前文The parachute is better than that stupid idea的一个引述，即stupid。
25题考查前后两句的关系，这两句不是转折和顺承关系即but和and排除；而while表示时间点，而since表示时间段，後文作者的friendship仍在被challenged，而不是仅发生在words had been out这一时间点上，因此选since。
26题had to表明了被迫，而admit作为高考的常考词，它做承认解释时通常理解为（被迫）承认，而且後文通常会出现转折。
27题空后接逗号表明考察关系词，後文出现了Egg-cellent Egg Cream didn’t look quite scientific，与admit后的Egg Force One looked pretty good形成了对比，因此therefore表结果，otherwise表非此即彼排除，而besides在07年中出现过一次，表示层进，不引导对比关系，只留下anyway。
28题空后的three more和again都表明是重复前文carried container up的动作，因此选择walked up。
29题空后的描述表明I和Cassie仍然survived，因此寻找survive的同义词即可，left(留下)。
30题只参考48题不难得到steps。蛋碎了表明此次drop是一次failed（失败的）即31题答案。
32题是词义考察题，考察race的生僻含义：快速运动，尤指心跳加速。
33题，34题都需要A tie来完成，既然是tie那么Cassie也失败了，她的鸡蛋弹出了篮子，所以33题为empty,34题out。
35题可根据後文I laughed和She smiled表明两人重归于好，所以glare（怒目而视）应该soften。
IV.
36. B 从后一句“…move in separate orbits”可知。
37. C 从文中“… , but it is getting narrow” 及 “such as sex and drugs” 的例举。
38. B 从Para. 6 “…family expert warn that…”得知目前的亲子关系的新转变。
39. A Para. 7 “the 1960s as a turning point. Great cultural changes led to more open communication…” 使得 the 40-year-olds 能顺应变化的趋势。
40. B 本文阐述了亲子关系的发展。
