(2)怎樣理解本文的一些相關(guān)論述?【明確】這是一篇科學(xué)講演,涉及較為復(fù)雜的背景知識(shí)。這些知識(shí)和講演的主題是密切相關(guān)的,如果不作必要的交待,講演的內(nèi)容就會(huì)顯得抽象和單薄。如,談到天氣預(yù)報(bào)、大腦工作原理都具有混沌性質(zhì),來(lái)反襯宇宙在大尺度上是"平滑而非混沌"的;如,談到恒星的死亡(歸宿)引出黑洞,為宇宙中暗物質(zhì)的存在尋找理論支持;如,談到現(xiàn)存宇宙對(duì)初始密度的極度敏感,引出了"人擇原理"等等。這些相關(guān)的論述,或從對(duì)立面凸顯觀點(diǎn),或從縱深面強(qiáng)化觀點(diǎn),使論證豐富多彩。(3)這篇講演在語(yǔ)言上具有怎樣的特點(diǎn)?【明確】講演是面對(duì)面的交流,這種交流又是單向度的,如果不注意講演的語(yǔ)言藝術(shù),就達(dá)不到最佳的表達(dá)效果。這篇講演,除了推理嚴(yán)謹(jǐn)外,語(yǔ)言幽默也是其突出的特點(diǎn)。幽默的語(yǔ)言創(chuàng)造出一種輕松愉快的氣氛,更具有親和力,使所闡發(fā)的事理更容易為聽眾接受。
【教學(xué)過(guò)程】第一課時(shí)一、導(dǎo)入新課清代唐彪在《讀書作文譜》中引用武叔卿的話說(shuō):“文章有一筆寫成不加點(diǎn)綴而工者,此神到之文,尚矣。其次須精思細(xì)改,如文章草創(chuàng)已定,便從頭至尾—一標(biāo)點(diǎn)?!蓖瑢W(xué)們能列舉出文學(xué)史上的作家哪些屬于前者,哪些屬于后者嗎?前者有李白。后者如賈島、王安石、歐陽(yáng)修、曹雪芹等。(賈島有關(guān)于推敲的典故。王安石修改“春風(fēng)又綠江南岸”句傳為佳話。歐陽(yáng)修《醉翁亭記》的開頭便是精心改成的。《紅樓夢(mèng)》更是“披閱十載,增刪五次?!保┨釂?wèn):古今的偉大作家為什么像李白式的詩(shī)人很少,而大多數(shù)人卻都要“咬文嚼字”,苦苦修改呢?這節(jié)課我們就來(lái)研究一下這個(gè)問(wèn)題。二、整體感知1.快速瀏覽全文,熟悉主要內(nèi)容。2.根據(jù)“學(xué)習(xí)重點(diǎn)”,確立學(xué)習(xí)目標(biāo)。三、課文分析1.理清觀點(diǎn)與材料的關(guān)系。首先,讓學(xué)生找出本文在論證中所運(yùn)用的材料。
二、課堂教學(xué):1、學(xué)生簡(jiǎn)介背景:教師掌握:漢武帝開始對(duì)匈奴進(jìn)行長(zhǎng)期的討伐戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng),其中取得了三次具有決定意義的勝利,時(shí)間為公元前127年、前121年、前119年。匈奴的威勢(shì)大大削弱之后,表示愿意與漢講和,但雙方矛盾還是根深蒂固。所以,到公元前100年,蘇武出使匈奴時(shí),卻被扣留,并迫使他投降?!短K武傳》集中敘寫了蘇武出使匈奴被扣留期間的事跡,熱烈頌揚(yáng)了他在敵人面前富貴不能淫,貧賤不能移,威武不能屈,饑寒壓不倒,私情無(wú)所動(dòng)的浩然正氣,充分肯定了他堅(jiān)毅忠貞,大義凜然,視死如歸的民族氣節(jié)。2、作者介紹:班固(32——92年),字孟堅(jiān),扶風(fēng)安陵(今陜西咸陽(yáng)市東)人。東漢著名的史學(xué)家。《后漢書·班固傳》稱他“年九歲,能屬文,誦詩(shī)賦。及長(zhǎng),遂博貫載籍,九流百家之言,無(wú)不窮究。所學(xué)無(wú)常師,不為章句,舉大義而已”。其父班彪曾續(xù)司馬遷《史記》作《史記后傳》,未成而故。
③于是,大自然出現(xiàn)了驚人的奇跡,不毛的石縫間叢生出倔強(qiáng)的生命。④或者就只是一簇一簇?zé)o名的野草,春綠秋黃。歲歲枯榮。它們只有三兩片長(zhǎng)長(zhǎng)的細(xì)瘦的薄葉,那細(xì)微的葉脈,告知你生存該是多么艱難;更有的。它們就在一簇一簇瘦葉下自己生長(zhǎng)出根須,只為了少向母體吮吸一點(diǎn)乳汁,便自去尋找那不易被覺察到的石縫。這就是生命,如果這是一種本能,那么它正說(shuō)明生命的本能是多么尊貴,生命有權(quán)自認(rèn)為輝煌壯麗,生機(jī)竟是這樣地不可扼制。⑤或者就是一團(tuán)一團(tuán)小小的山花,大多又都是那苦苦的蒲公英。它們不似田野上的同宗長(zhǎng)得那樣茁壯,它們的莖顯得堅(jiān)韌而蒼老。它們的葉因枯萎而失卻光澤。它們已經(jīng)不能再去為人們作佐餐的鮮嫩的野菜,卻默默地為攀登山路的人準(zhǔn)備了一個(gè)可靠的抓手。生命就這樣地被環(huán)境規(guī)定著,又被環(huán)境改變著,適者生存的規(guī)律盡管無(wú)情。但一切適者就是戰(zhàn)勝環(huán)境的強(qiáng)者。生命現(xiàn)象告訴你,生命就是拼搏。
(一)上片:描寫杭州的自然風(fēng)光和都市的繁華“東南形勝,三吳都會(huì),錢塘自古繁華”,“東南形勝”,是從地理?xiàng)l件、自然條件著筆寫的。杭州地處東南,地理位置很重要,風(fēng)景很優(yōu)美,故曰:“形勝”?!叭齾嵌紩?huì)”,是從社會(huì)條件著筆寫的。它是三吳地區(qū)的重要都市,那里人眾薈萃,財(cái)貨聚集,故曰:“都會(huì)”?!板X塘自古繁華”,這一句是對(duì)前兩句的總結(jié),因?yàn)楹贾菥哂羞@些特殊條件,所以“自古繁華”。下面就對(duì)“形勝”、“都會(huì)”和“自古繁華”進(jìn)行鋪敘?!盁熈嫎颍L(fēng)簾翠幕,參差十萬(wàn)人家”是對(duì)“三吳都會(huì)”的展開描寫?!霸茦淅@堤沙。怒濤卷霜雪,天塹無(wú)涯”是對(duì)“東南形勝”的展開描寫。這里選擇了錢塘江岸和江潮兩種景物來(lái)寫。“市列珠璣,戶盈羅綺,競(jìng)豪奢”是對(duì)“錢塘自古繁華”的展開描寫。描寫了兩個(gè)方面:一是商業(yè)貿(mào)易情況——“市列珠璣”,只用市場(chǎng)上的珍寶,代表了商業(yè)的豐富、商業(yè)的繁榮;二是衣著情況——“戶盈羅綺”,家家披羅著錦?!案?jìng)豪奢”,又總括杭州的種種繁華景象。
B重點(diǎn)與難點(diǎn)重點(diǎn):伽利略對(duì)物理學(xué)發(fā)展的重大貢獻(xiàn);經(jīng)典力學(xué)的建立;相對(duì)論的提出;量子論的誕生。難點(diǎn):物理學(xué)各階段發(fā)展的原因;對(duì)科學(xué)發(fā)展創(chuàng)新性的理解。D教學(xué)過(guò)程【導(dǎo)入新課】1632年,伽利略撰寫的《關(guān)于托勒密和哥白尼兩大世界體系的對(duì)話》科學(xué)巨著出版后,立刻引起教會(huì)的恐慌,把伽利略投入監(jiān)獄。教皇烏爾班八世的御用工具——宗教裁判所在1633年6月21日宣布對(duì)伽利略的判決:“我們判決你在宗教法庭監(jiān)獄內(nèi)服刑,刑期由我們掌握,為了有益于補(bǔ)贖,命令你在今后3年內(nèi),每周背誦7篇贖罪詩(shī)篇……”這一紙胡言,竟使伽利略蒙冤300多年,致死都沒有撤銷判決,甚至死后還被禁止舉行殯禮,不準(zhǔn)葬入圣太克羅斯墓地。那么,是什么原因?qū)е伦诮滩门兴鶎?duì)伽利略作了如此判決?我們應(yīng)如何看待伽利略在科學(xué)領(lǐng)域的貢獻(xiàn)?
中國(guó)古代商業(yè)的發(fā)展有哪些表現(xiàn)?綜觀中國(guó)古代歷史,商業(yè)在不同的歷史時(shí)期有不同的表現(xiàn)。主要表現(xiàn)在:(1)商業(yè)活動(dòng)的場(chǎng)所的變化:先主要在城市中進(jìn)行,后來(lái)農(nóng)村集市貿(mào)易逐漸發(fā)展。唐時(shí)加快,明清時(shí)突出,出現(xiàn)了專業(yè)性的市集(如絲市、葉市、豬市等),以至逐漸形成了新興的市鎮(zhèn)(有的更是專業(yè)性的集散市集);而不是先有農(nóng)村商業(yè),而后才有城市商業(yè)的發(fā)展。(2)交易內(nèi)容的變化:商業(yè)開始時(shí)以販運(yùn)、交流地區(qū)間的土特產(chǎn)品,經(jīng)營(yíng)統(tǒng)治者所需要的奢侈品為主要內(nèi)容,以后隨著商品貨幣經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展,市場(chǎng)商品種類增多、行業(yè)分細(xì),為一般人民所需要的主要農(nóng)副產(chǎn)品以及城市手工業(yè)所生產(chǎn)的大小商品在整個(gè)流通界地位提高。這種情況在宋代已經(jīng)顯現(xiàn)。(3)交易媒介的變化:商品交換最原始的形態(tài)是物物交換,不存在交易的媒介。隨著商品交換的內(nèi)容和地域的擴(kuò)大,出現(xiàn)了以貝殼等為代表的一般等價(jià)物。
【課后研討】當(dāng)互聯(lián)網(wǎng)正大踏步走進(jìn)人類生活的時(shí)候,人們對(duì)網(wǎng)絡(luò)作用的認(rèn)識(shí)似乎還是模糊不清。一種意見認(rèn)為,作為中學(xué)生,他們上網(wǎng)的機(jī)會(huì)很多,互聯(lián)網(wǎng)向他們展示了各類知識(shí)結(jié)構(gòu),網(wǎng)絡(luò)為他們提供了大量信息,又給他們提供了一個(gè)接觸社會(huì)的個(gè)性化和國(guó)際化的空間,給了他們一個(gè)展示自身能力的大舞臺(tái),所以他們對(duì)于知識(shí)選擇的靈活性大大增加,學(xué)習(xí)的主動(dòng)性也大大提高,學(xué)習(xí)的內(nèi)容自然大大超出了狹隘的課本范圍,這對(duì)于學(xué)生能力的提高應(yīng)是大有裨益的。另一種意見認(rèn)為,網(wǎng)絡(luò)的出現(xiàn)無(wú)疑為推進(jìn)素質(zhì)教育提供了一塊綠洲.但部分中學(xué)生上網(wǎng)更多的是為了消遣和娛樂(lè),因?yàn)榫W(wǎng)絡(luò)--這個(gè)完全虛擬的世界是他們放松自己的最佳場(chǎng)所。同時(shí)也許正基于這一點(diǎn),家長(zhǎng)和師長(zhǎng)才會(huì)對(duì)中學(xué)生上網(wǎng)出現(xiàn)不同程度的抵制,因?yàn)樗麄冋J(rèn)為網(wǎng)上娛樂(lè)分散了他們過(guò)多的精力,會(huì)對(duì)學(xué)業(yè)造成影響;更為重要的是,他們害怕網(wǎng)絡(luò)上的不良信息對(duì)他們的身心不利。
(2)世界需要中國(guó):中國(guó)入世后,為全球提供一個(gè)誘人的大市場(chǎng)。WTO亟須中國(guó)帶來(lái)新的生機(jī)和平衡。世界需要中國(guó)。中國(guó)作為世界上最大的發(fā)展中國(guó)家,入世后,其巨大的需求潛力將轉(zhuǎn)化為現(xiàn)實(shí)的購(gòu)買力,為全球提供一個(gè)誘人的大市場(chǎng)。目前,與世貿(mào)組織成員間的貿(mào)易額占我國(guó)外貿(mào)總額的90%,來(lái)華落戶的跨國(guó)公司多來(lái)自世貿(mào)組織成員。世貿(mào)組織幾任總干事先后在不同場(chǎng)合表達(dá)過(guò)相同的意愿:WTO亟須中國(guó)帶來(lái)新的生機(jī)和平衡。2、影響:(1)對(duì)世界:促進(jìn)了世界經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展,有利于建立完善的世界貿(mào)易體系。(2)對(duì)中國(guó):對(duì)中國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)發(fā)展有利有弊,但利大于弊。中國(guó)加入世貿(mào)組織,是機(jī)遇也是挑戰(zhàn)。有利:加入世界貿(mào)易組織,促進(jìn)了我國(guó)經(jīng)濟(jì)的發(fā)展,進(jìn)一步完善了社會(huì)主義市場(chǎng)經(jīng)濟(jì)體制。
(2)根據(jù)材料二與所學(xué)知識(shí),從經(jīng)濟(jì)、政治、思想文化三個(gè)方面,分析歐洲近代科技迅速發(fā)展的原因。答:資本主義工商業(yè)的成長(zhǎng)刺激了對(duì)技術(shù)的需求,為近代科技的發(fā)展提供了工具和手段;資產(chǎn)階級(jí)革命為資本主義發(fā)展、科技進(jìn)步開辟了道路;人文主義和理性精神解放了思想,推動(dòng)近代科技迅速發(fā)展。(如答出其它原因,言之有理,可酌情加分,但不得超過(guò)該問(wèn)總分)(3)根據(jù)材料二三與所學(xué)知識(shí),分析清代(鴉片戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)前)中國(guó)科技發(fā)展停滯的原因。答:君主專制維系腐朽制度;重農(nóng)抑商、閉關(guān)政策阻礙資本主義萌芽發(fā)展;自然經(jīng)濟(jì)不能提供近代科技發(fā)展的物質(zhì)基礎(chǔ);文化專制政策(或崇尚理學(xué)、八股取士、文字獄等)禁錮思想,摧殘人才,阻礙科技發(fā)展。(如答出其它原因,言之有理,可酌情加分,但不得超過(guò)該問(wèn)總分。)(4)簡(jiǎn)述從中西方科技發(fā)展變化的歷史中得到的啟示。答:評(píng)分說(shuō)明:圍繞生產(chǎn)力發(fā)展,政治經(jīng)濟(jì)變革、思想解放與科技發(fā)展的關(guān)系等任一角度回答,言之有理,均可酌情賦分
畫中的諸多圖像反映了畫家對(duì)于傳統(tǒng)繪畫因素的吸收。那個(gè)懷抱死去孩子的母親圖像,似乎是源自哀悼基督的圣母像傳統(tǒng);手持油燈的女人,使人聯(lián)想起自由女神像的造型;那個(gè)高舉雙手仰天驚呼的形象,與戈雅畫中愛國(guó)者就義的身姿不無(wú)相似之處;而那個(gè)張臂倒地的士兵形象,則似乎與意大利文藝復(fù)興早期某些戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)畫中的形象,有著姻親關(guān)系。由此可以看出,畢加索不僅是一位富于叛逆精神的大膽創(chuàng)新者,同時(shí)也是一位尊崇和精通傳統(tǒng)的藝術(shù)家。教師須強(qiáng)調(diào):現(xiàn)代主義美術(shù)是現(xiàn)代美術(shù)流派的總稱,現(xiàn)代美術(shù)流派眾多,多姿多彩,但它們也表現(xiàn)出許多共同的特征。在技法上,它們大都反對(duì)傳統(tǒng)的寫實(shí)主義,追求新奇,空間結(jié)構(gòu)錯(cuò)亂,色彩配置隨意,點(diǎn)線紊亂,缺乏透視可謂它們共有的特點(diǎn)。在創(chuàng)作主旨上,它們都主張強(qiáng)調(diào)自我,表現(xiàn)個(gè)人情感和內(nèi)心世界??梢哉f(shuō),現(xiàn)代美術(shù)藝術(shù)再現(xiàn)了20世紀(jì)西方世界的精神狀況。

Listening and Speaking introduces the topic of “how to save endangered wildlife and help wildlife in their neighborhood.” Due to the continuous deterioration of the living environment, a large number of wild animals are always facing the threat of endangered or extinction. Listening and speaking period enables students to understand the fact and reason why wild species are disappearing from the earth at an amazing speed, and realize that human beings ought to enhance the awareness of protecting wild species as soon as possible.Listening and Talking introduces the theme of " how to help wildlife in Ss’ neighborhood.". Now there are many volunteers who spontaneously protect wild animals, carry out various activities according to local conditions, and contribute their own strength to local animal protection with practical actions. Middle school students are also enthusiastic participants. They organize activities in their spare time, and take this opportunity to make friends, broaden their horizons, cultivate team spirit and communication skills. This section describes a bird watching activity organized by several middle school students of Bird watching Club. It aims to stimulate students' interest, improve their understanding of bird watching activities, and use the language structure of “being used for; in order to, so as to, to, so that, in order that ” to express the purpose for communication and discussion.1. Guide students to understand the content of listening texts in terms of using visuals to predict content.2. Cultivate students' ability to guess the meaning of words in listening; discuss with their peers how to save endangered wildlife and help wildlife in their neighborhood.3. Instruct students to use functional sentences of the dialogue such as “I am concerned about…” “what do you know about the endangered animals in…" and so on to talk about one of the endangered animals.
This lesson is about wildlife protection.
