Five periods

本单元围绕情感的话题，通过学习让学生能够表达自己的感受。Section A通过谈论不同
事物对情绪的影响，要求学生学习与情感有关的词汇，并通过听说读写逐步掌握make作使役
动词的语言结构，学习掌握表达情绪和感受的形容词和动词，学习make＋sb.＋do sth.和make
＋sb.＋adj.的结构并能够正确运用这些结构表达人的情绪等相关内容。教学重点一是要帮助
学生建立使役动词(make，let，have)之后要跟省略to的动词不定式的意识；二是在make＋sb.
＋adj.这个结构中，学生要理解这里的adj.有两种形式——形容词和动词过去分词充当的形容
词。学生容易受汉语的影响出错，要帮助学生分析原因，在不断纠正中形成相关的语言意识，
正确运用这一结构，做到熟能生巧。Section B是Section A内容的继续和延伸。在话题上，从事物对人情感产生影响的简单叙述，转向描述人们对某种情感所持有的观念；在语言上，除了进
一步综合训练和掌握单元语言内容外，正确、得体地运用相关形容词描绘情感，表达情感变化
是本部分的重点；在语言技能上，由简单技能训练转向侧重听说读写的综合性训练。Section B
有两个重点：一是让学生形成梳理、寻找并积累成语或习语的意识和习惯；二是要求学生能够
根据阅读课文的逻辑框架描写自己的个人经历。学生要学会按一定的逻辑结构去写，注意这
个结构中的各个环节的衔接和写作内容的完整一致，要充分利用阅读课文的示范性作用，模

Teaching Reflection 【教学反思】
In the reading period，the most important thing is telling the students how to read and
learn the new items in it.It is a good time to train the students' ability of reading quickly and
efficiently.We do this practice again and again.At every reading step，students learn to deal with
one task.They should learn to catch the main and the most important ideas as quickly as they
can.They must learn to use some new words and new language items.Idioms and phrases are
important in English learning.They are supposed to remember them and make sentences with these
idioms or replace some other words.
After reading，we get the students to role－play the conversation.In this way，studentswill practice more and learn easily.The Fifth Period－Section B(3a－3b) & Self Check
