人教版高中語文必修4《短文三篇》教案
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的生命。④或者就只是一簇一簇無名的野草，春綠秋黃。歲歲枯榮。它們只有三兩片長長的細瘦的薄葉，那細微的葉脈，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出根須，只為了少向母體吮吸一點乳汁，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，那么它正說明生命的本能是多么尊貴，生命有權(quán)自認為輝煌壯麗，生機竟是這樣地不可扼制。⑤或者就是一團一團小小的山花，大多又都是那苦苦的蒲公英。它們不似田野上的同宗長得那樣茁壯，它們的莖顯得堅韌而蒼老。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備了一個可靠的抓手。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)律盡管無情。但一切適者就是戰(zhàn)勝環(huán)境的強者。生命現(xiàn)象告訴你，生命就是拼搏。
人教版高中語文必修4《李清照詞兩首》教案
2．【提問】《醉花陰》反映的是早年丈夫趙明誠游宦在外，作者一個人留在家中的生活狀況和內(nèi)心感受。對于這樣的“閨怨”題材，應當怎樣評價呢？【明確】作者作為一個封建時代的婦女，能夠坦率地表達出自己對于丈夫深深的思戀之情，描寫了閨中生活的孤獨寂寞，這在當時乃是一種很大膽的行為。所以，有人批評說：李清照作詞是“無顧忌”地“肆意落筆”。其實，感情的充沛、真摯，敢于正面地展露自己的行為和內(nèi)心世界，正是她創(chuàng)作成功的重要原因之一，也正是她的詞最值得珍視的地方。3．【提問】古人常常愛用花比喻人之美貌，如“芙蓉如面柳如眉”，“人面桃花相映紅”等，而李清照卻說“人比黃花瘦”，這樣的比喻有什么豐富的內(nèi)涵？【明確】黃色的菊花不止外形上雅淡、清秀，與作者因相思而消瘦的體態(tài)相近，而且在菊花品格的傳統(tǒng)象征意義上，也酷似作者清高、淡泊的精神，這樣的比喻正比較恰切地反映了當時作者由于離開丈夫而孤獨、愁悶的生活狀態(tài)和內(nèi)心情感。
人教版高中歷史必修2開辟新航路教案
材料五航路開辟后，東方香料輸入歐洲的總量較中古之時猛增30倍，而胡椒、丁香等在印度購入和在英國賣出的差價亦高達10至29倍，其他貨物的獲利同樣驚人。這一時期，新的商品不斷涌現(xiàn)，特別值得注意的是美洲的特產(chǎn)——玉米、馬鈴薯、煙草、可可等——被傳播到歐亞大陸。這時，世界性的對外貿(mào)易主要通過大西洋，地中海與意大利皆告衰落，而沿大洋的英、荷等漸居中心。到17世紀時，英國的倫敦與荷蘭的阿姆斯特丹成為世界貿(mào)易中心。問題4：材料五表明，新航路開辟后對世界貿(mào)易產(chǎn)生了哪些重大影響？答案4：結(jié)束了世界相對孤立狀態(tài)；各地文明開始會合交流，日益連成一個整體；歐洲商人直接同世界各地建立商業(yè)聯(lián)系；促進不同國家和貿(mào)易的發(fā)展，促進世界市場雛形開始出現(xiàn)。
人教版高中歷史必修2古代商業(yè)的發(fā)展教案
中國古代商業(yè)的發(fā)展有哪些表現(xiàn)？綜觀中國古代歷史，商業(yè)在不同的歷史時期有不同的表現(xiàn)。主要表現(xiàn)在：（1）商業(yè)活動的場所的變化：先主要在城市中進行，后來農(nóng)村集市貿(mào)易逐漸發(fā)展。唐時加快，明清時突出，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)開始時以販運、交流地區(qū)間的土特產(chǎn)品，經(jīng)營統(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)濟的發(fā)展，市場商品種類增多、行業(yè)分細，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)容和地域的擴大，出現(xiàn)了以貝殼等為代表的一般等價物。
人教版高中歷史必修2大眾傳媒的變遷教案
【課后研討】當互聯(lián)網(wǎng)正大踏步走進人類生活的時候，人們對網(wǎng)絡作用的認識似乎還是模糊不清。一種意見認為，作為中學生，他們上網(wǎng)的機會很多,互聯(lián)網(wǎng)向他們展示了各類知識結(jié)構(gòu),網(wǎng)絡為他們提供了大量信息，又給他們提供了一個接觸社會的個性化和國際化的空間，給了他們一個展示自身能力的大舞臺,所以他們對于知識選擇的靈活性大大增加，學習的主動性也大大提高，學習的內(nèi)容自然大大超出了狹隘的課本范圍，這對于學生能力的提高應是大有裨益的。另一種意見認為，網(wǎng)絡的出現(xiàn)無疑為推進素質(zhì)教育提供了一塊綠洲.但部分中學生上網(wǎng)更多的是為了消遣和娛樂，因為網(wǎng)絡--這個完全虛擬的世界是他們放松自己的最佳場所。同時也許正基于這一點，家長和師長才會對中學生上網(wǎng)出現(xiàn)不同程度的抵制，因為他們認為網(wǎng)上娛樂分散了他們過多的精力，會對學業(yè)造成影響；更為重要的是，他們害怕網(wǎng)絡上的不良信息對他們的身心不利。
人教版高中歷史必修3美術(shù)的輝煌教案2篇
畫中的諸多圖像反映了畫家對于傳統(tǒng)繪畫因素的吸收。那個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；那個高舉雙手仰天驚呼的形象，與戈雅畫中愛國者就義的身姿不無相似之處；而那個張臂倒地的士兵形象，則似乎與意大利文藝復興早期某些戰(zhàn)爭畫中的形象，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，同時也是一位尊崇和精通傳統(tǒng)的藝術(shù)家。教師須強調(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，它們大都反對傳統(tǒng)的寫實主義，追求新奇，空間結(jié)構(gòu)錯亂，色彩配置隨意，點線紊亂，缺乏透視可謂它們共有的特點。在創(chuàng)作主旨上，它們都主張強調(diào)自我，表現(xiàn)個人情感和內(nèi)心世界?？梢哉f，現(xiàn)代美術(shù)藝術(shù)再現(xiàn)了20世紀西方世界的精神狀況。
