Which of these things do you think is the most important: money, family, jobs, health, good looks or friends? Why? Try using this phrase to express their own ideas:

二、学情分析
枯燥的话题很难提高学生的学习兴趣。在这节课，通过一个有趣的假想的话题--假如你是一位残疾人，你会怎么做，来激起学生的兴趣，让学生主动谈自己的想法和看法，学有所得。
三、教学方法
本课采用任务型阅读教学法，用If you are a disabled person, what do you do ?这个问句，引出谈论假想情况的话题。 采用提问、启发、讨论和归纳的教法，让学生易于接受教材内容，理解阅读内容，培养学生的语言运用能力。
四、教学过程设计
Step Ⅰ. Greet the whole class as usual.
Step Ⅱ. Warming-up questions:
T: Do you know Helen Keller?
S1: Yes, I know.
T: Can you say something about her?
S1: I only know she is a very famous writer, but she is blind.
T: Yeah. You are right. She is a disabled person. Thank you. Sit down, please.
(To the whole class) Now class, do you know another disabled people? Can you give me their names?
S2: Zhang Haidi and SangLan.
T: Thank you.
(To the whole class) Now class, you know Zhang Haidi SangLan and Helen Keller are all disabled people, but do you know what is their attitude toward life? Suppose:
If you don’t have arms or legs, what do you do?
If you can’t see anything, what do you do?
If you can’t hear anybody say something, what do you do?
S3: I’ll buy a wheelchair to help me.
S4: I’ll be very sad and cry all the time.
S5: I’ll try my best to touch everything in the world.
T: OK, stop here. Please listen to me carefully, that is my answers:
If I were a blind person, I would use my ears to listen to the sound of the world carefully.
If I were a deaf people, I would use my eyes to say the beauty of the world.
If I don’t have arms or legs, I can use my heart to feel the world, and try my best to enjoy the life.
Step Ⅲ.Listening
1. Play the audiotape. Have the class follow the audiotape while looking at the text. And try to answer the following questions:
① What happened to Jane when she was ten years old?
② How Jane became disabled?
③ How old is Jane now?
④ What did she do after she became disabled?
⑤ Did she have any children?
⑥ What did she think of her disability?
⑦ Why Jane think her life is full of good things?
2. Correct the answer.
Step Ⅳ. Reading
1. Have the class to read the text and do the exercise Ⅱ on Activity Books.
2. Check the answers while give them some important language points of the text. For example:
She is unable to do many things.
be unable to do sth. (be not able to do sth)
be able to do sth.
She enjoys encouraging her daughter to play the piano.
enjoy doing sth /finish, dislike, hate, feel like doing
encourage somebody to do sth.
Conclusion:
Everyone has problems, if you think about your problems; you will have a life full of problems.
Do you know who is really disabled? People who don’t know how lucky they are.
StepⅤ. Do the Project
Which of these things do you think is the most important: money, family jobs, health, good looks or friends? Why? Ask the students to talk about each other. Using this phrase:
I think that_____ is the most important because_____.
Discussion:
I think money is important because money can buy everything.
I think health is the most important because…
I think family is the most important because…
Step Ⅵ. Summary and Homework
1. Read the fifth reading in the reader.
2. The remaining exercises in the activity book.
3. The next reading in the student book.
1、以这样的问题提问，会使学生很感兴趣。因为在语文阅读课中刚刚读过海伦凯勒的文章《假如给我三天光明》
2、从海伦凯勒到张海迪和桑兰，让学生的思维有准备的过程，并且使学生积极地思考，找出她们的共同点，主动学习。
3、学生考虑的层次较低，有些同学还带有消极的想法和做法，而没有积极进取的思想和正确对待生活的态度，教师应积极引导。
4、这个内容也为下一步做听力练习奠定了语言基础，适当减轻了听力难度，同时使学生能对课文有一个整体的了解，学会怎样获得文章中的关键信息。
5、有了热身部分的听力铺垫和听音后的反馈练习，这一部分的问题回答显得很简单.语言点的理解也很容易了,并很快概括出文章的中心句.启发学生自己讲出要用健康的心理对待生活,并珍视自己的健康.
6、进一步熟悉巩固前几课学过的句型：
I think that ____is
The most important because________.
7、通过讨论让学生明白健康的重要，同时需要教师进一步引导学生正确处理家庭、金钱、健康、容貌及朋友在生活中的关系。增强他们的学习兴趣和信心。
8、积极预习，为下一节课做准备。
五、 板书设计

六、教学反思
1．用假设的条件句引导学生循序渐进，顺利进入阅读课文。
2．学生对阅读课的理解能力有所提高，表现在能迅速找到文章的中心句和课后反思的问题。
3．学生讨论后，做口头报告时，表达不够顺利，原因是学生词汇量有限，口语表达能力欠缺。
4．阅读与思考的时间较多，使得口语练习的机会相对较少。
