9.我們的祖國歷史悠久,文化燦爛。我國是世界著名的四大文明古國之一,有近5000年的文字記載的悠久歷史,我國各民族人民創(chuàng)造了燦爛的古代文化和科學(xué)技術(shù)。張衡發(fā)明的“渾天儀”、“地動儀”比歐洲早1700多年;祖沖之的“圓周率”推算,比西方世界早了1000多年;華佗的全身麻醉技術(shù)也比西方早10000多年;煉鐵技術(shù)的發(fā)明比歐洲早1900多年……中國的“四大發(fā)明”更是推動了人類歷史文明的進(jìn)程。5000多年的歷史造就了中華民族燦爛的文化,涌現(xiàn)出大批偉大的思想家、文學(xué)家、藝術(shù)家,也出現(xiàn)了一大批優(yōu)秀的藝術(shù)作品,這都是先人留給我們的寶貴精神財(cái)富。以上材料說明 ( )①中華文化歷史悠久,源遠(yuǎn)流長是中華文化的基本特征 ②中華文化博大精深,具有非常豐富的內(nèi)容 ③中華民族對人類世界的發(fā)展做出了巨大的貢獻(xiàn) ④中華文化曾長期居于世界文化發(fā)展的 前列,是世界上最優(yōu)秀的民族文化之一A. ①② B. ①②③ C. ①②③④ D. ①②④
二、 教學(xué)目標(biāo)1、知識目標(biāo):識記影響文化發(fā)展的重要因素;理解文化繼承與文化發(fā)展的關(guān)系。教育在文化傳承中的重要作用;聯(lián)系具體事例,說明應(yīng)如何正確繼承和發(fā)展傳統(tǒng)文化;結(jié)合自身體會,談?wù)劷逃谖幕瘋鞒兄械淖饔谩?、能力目標(biāo):結(jié)合分析文化繼承與文化發(fā)展的關(guān)系,提高歸納與分析問題的能力;利用教材提供的情景和問題,提高學(xué)生自主學(xué)習(xí)、合作學(xué)習(xí)和初步探究學(xué)習(xí)的能力。3情感、態(tài)度、價值觀目標(biāo):通過學(xué)習(xí)本課內(nèi)容,使學(xué)生認(rèn)識文化發(fā)展的歷史過程,正確把握文化傳承中繼承和發(fā)展的辯證關(guān)系,從而作出正確的文化選擇,做自覺的文化傳承者和享用者。三、 教學(xué)重點(diǎn)難點(diǎn)文化繼承與發(fā)展的關(guān)系,教育對文化發(fā)展的作用四、 學(xué)情分析:關(guān)于文化繼承和文化發(fā)展的關(guān)系,學(xué)生易于理解,身邊事例較多;關(guān)于影響文化發(fā)展的重要因素部分,可成分利用好學(xué)生已有的歷史知識作為重要的教學(xué)資源;關(guān)于教育方式變革對文化傳承的影響,學(xué)生更有直接的感受,可以作為教學(xué)資源。
三、宗教改革:1、背景:(1)文藝復(fù)興的影響。文藝復(fù)興中,人文主義學(xué)者盡管對宗教保持較為溫和的態(tài)度,但其以人為中心的思想極大地沖擊了天主教的精神獨(dú)裁,天主教的權(quán)威日益受到人們的懷疑。(2)天主教會對歐洲尤其是德意志的壓榨。中世紀(jì)的天主教會對人民進(jìn)行嚴(yán)密的精神統(tǒng)治,基督教信仰的核心是“原罪”和“靈魂救贖”,即人生下來就有罪,只有信仰上帝,跟隨耶穌才能得救。就“靈魂救贖”而言,最初強(qiáng)調(diào)的是個人信仰的作用,后來,神學(xué)家們又加上了種種繁雜的宗教禮儀,而且必須得到神職人員的幫助,靈魂才能得救。在經(jīng)濟(jì)上,天主教會還是最大的封建主,占有大量的土地,并征收什一稅,對各國人民大肆搜刮。羅馬教廷每年從德意志搜刮的財(cái)富達(dá)30萬古爾登(貨幣單位),相當(dāng)于“神圣羅馬帝國”皇帝每年稅收額的20倍。德意志也成了被教會榨取最嚴(yán)重的地區(qū),素有“教皇的乳?!敝Q。
Step 3 Analyzing article structureActivity 31. Teachers raise questions to guide students to analyze the chapter structure of this diary and think about how to describe the festival experience. (1)What should be included in the opening/body/closing paragraph(s)?(2)How did the writer arrange his/her ideas?(3)What kind of interesting details did the writer describe?(4)How did the writer describe his/her feelings/emotions during the event?2. Students read and compare the three sentence patterns in activity 2. Try to rewrite the first paragraph of the diary with these three sentence patterns. After that, students exchange corrections with their partners. Such as:●This was my first time spending three days experiencing the Naadam Festival in China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region and it was an enjoyable and exciting experience. ●I'll never forget my experience at the Naadam Festival because it was my first time to watch the exciting Mongolian games of horse racing, wrestling, and archery so closely. ●I'll always remember my first experience at the Naadam Festival in China’s Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region because it was so amazing to spend three days witnessing a grand Mongolian ceremony. Step 4 Accumulation of statementsActivity 41. Ask the students to read the diary again. Look for sentences that express feelings and emotions, especially those with the -ing form and the past participle. Such as:● …h(huán)orse racing, wrestling, and archery, which are all so exciting to watch. ● some amazing performances● I was surprised to see…● I was a little worried about. . . ● feeling really tiredOther emotional statements:●I absolutely enjoyed the archery, too, but the horse races were my favourite part. ●I'm finally back home now, feeling really tired, but celebrating Naadam with my friend was totally worth it. ●He invited me back for the winter to stay in a traditional Mongolian tent and cat hot pot. I can’t wait!2. In addition to the use of the -ing form and the past participle, the teacher should guide the students in the appreciation of these statements, ask them to memorize them, and encourage them to use them reasonably in writing practice.

一、教材分析《加強(qiáng)思想道德建設(shè)》是人教版高中政治必修一《文化生活》第十課第一框題的教學(xué)內(nèi)容。主要學(xué)習(xí)加強(qiáng)思想道德建設(shè)的原因和要求,在前后兩個框題中起到了承上啟下的作用。二、教學(xué)目標(biāo)1、知識目標(biāo)識記:社會主義思想道德建設(shè)的主要內(nèi)容。理解:加強(qiáng)社會主義思想道德建設(shè)的主要內(nèi)容必要性和重要性分析:社會主義榮辱觀的特點(diǎn),以及它和加強(qiáng)社會主義思想道德建設(shè)的內(nèi)在聯(lián)系。 2、能力目標(biāo)通過對社會主義榮辱觀的特點(diǎn)的學(xué)習(xí),提高學(xué)生多角度認(rèn)識和分析問題的能力。3、情感、態(tài)度、價值觀目標(biāo):通過本課的學(xué)習(xí),提高對加強(qiáng)社會主義思想道德建設(shè)的認(rèn)識,自覺樹立社會主義榮辱觀,做“明榮知恥”的中學(xué)生。三、教學(xué)重難點(diǎn)教學(xué)重點(diǎn):為什么要加強(qiáng)思想道德建設(shè)。教學(xué)難點(diǎn):怎樣加強(qiáng)思想道德建設(shè)。
評價分析法,就是引述事例后,對所引述的事例作適當(dāng)?shù)脑u價,從而使自己的觀點(diǎn)得到印證。例如,在論“節(jié)儉”時,引用了“曾國藩以儉戒子,其子曾紀(jì)澤終成出色的外交家;方志敏居官不貪,一生清貧,千古留名”的事實(shí)后,接著進(jìn)行分析:是的,“儉者心常富”,節(jié)儉能培養(yǎng)人同困難作斗爭的勇氣和意志,而這正是一個人立業(yè)最重要的素質(zhì)。從這個意義上說,有人說饑餓是人生的佐料,吃苦是一種資本也不無道理,而自覺和戒奢尚儉則更是促人修身養(yǎng)性,磨煉意志的有效途徑。這里,作者緊扣論點(diǎn),對論據(jù)進(jìn)行了評價性分析,這種評價分析使作者的觀點(diǎn)得到強(qiáng)化。(四)因果分析法因果分析法,就是抓住論據(jù)所述的事實(shí),并據(jù)此推求形成原因的一種分析方法。事出必有其因。我們可以依據(jù)事物發(fā)展變化的因果關(guān)系,由事物發(fā)展變化的結(jié)果,推導(dǎo)出產(chǎn)生這種結(jié)果的原因,從而揭示出一定的生活規(guī)律,使事例有力地證明觀點(diǎn)。
4、維新思想推動下的變法運(yùn)動雖然失敗了。但這是中國近代真正意義上的一次思想解放潮流,為什么?展開:維新派提倡西學(xué),興民權(quán),對封建專制制度和傳統(tǒng)觀念進(jìn)行了沖擊,促進(jìn)了中國人民的覺醒,為資產(chǎn)階級民主思想的傳播奠定了基礎(chǔ),具有思想解放的啟蒙作用。是一次救亡圖存的愛國運(yùn)動,也是一次發(fā)展資本主義的改革運(yùn)動;他們提倡資產(chǎn)階級新學(xué),批判封建主義舊學(xué),引導(dǎo)人們重新認(rèn)識世界,他們痛感民族危機(jī)的嚴(yán)重,號召人們奮起救國,謀求國家的獨(dú)立富強(qiáng);給古老的中國社會注入的活力是不可低估的,站在歷史長河的高度看,由傳統(tǒng)農(nóng)耕社會向近代工業(yè)社會轉(zhuǎn)變是一股不可抗拒的歷史潮流,盡管它在19世紀(jì)末的中國遭到了暫時挫折,但對清朝的封建專制統(tǒng)治卻是一次巨大的強(qiáng)烈的沖擊波,它留下的痕跡是永不磨滅的,是永遠(yuǎn)鼓舞與啟迪后人的。

教學(xué)目的:通過學(xué)生課前收集資料、課堂展示、小組討論及教師總結(jié)和講解等形式,明確文化競爭力在國際競爭中的地位,感受各國各國日益激烈的文化競爭力,探討如何提升中國特色社會主義文化的競爭力,培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的分析解決問題的能力,增強(qiáng)責(zé)任意識、科技意識和成才意識。教學(xué)時間:1小時課前準(zhǔn)備:(1)學(xué)生分組收集美國、日本、英國等國家文化產(chǎn)業(yè)的發(fā)展?fàn)顩r和中國文化走向世界的資料,并要求制成簡單的課件。(2)分組討論課本P23—25的三個探究問題(①運(yùn)用這些資料,從物質(zhì)和精神兩個方面,說明發(fā)展文化有什么意義。②你還能從社會生活的哪些現(xiàn)象中感受到一個國家的文化競爭力?③今天,中國文化為什么能夠在世界各地贏得尊重與喝彩?),組長整理好討論結(jié)果。
(2)偉大的意義:這些精神文明創(chuàng)建活動,是人民群眾“移風(fēng)易俗”、改造社會的偉大創(chuàng)造,也是人民群眾自我教育、自我提高的有效途徑。各具特色的精神文明創(chuàng)建活動,使人們在自覺參與的過程中思想感情得到熏陶,思想覺悟得到啟發(fā),精神生活得到充實(shí),道德意識得到增強(qiáng),道德境界得到升華。這對整個中華民族的精神面貌,正在產(chǎn)生不可估量的積極影響?!簏c(diǎn)撥:“相關(guān)鏈接”描述了青年志愿者活動,引導(dǎo)學(xué)生感悟其精神,升華道德境界,增強(qiáng)參與意識。(3)必然的選擇:投身于社會主義精神文明建設(shè)的偉大實(shí)踐,做新時期中國先進(jìn)文化的傳播者和建設(shè)者,是當(dāng)代中國青年成長、成才的必然選擇?!笸卣寡由欤涸谌罕娦跃裎拿鲃?chuàng)建活動中涌現(xiàn)出的先進(jìn)人物和英雄模范,像孔繁森、張海迪、徐洪剛、韓素云、李國安、徐虎、李素麗等,在全社會起到了良好的示范作用;提出的一些響亮口號,如“從我做起,從現(xiàn)在做起”“崗位學(xué)雷鋒,行業(yè)樹新風(fēng)”“單位做個好職工,社會做個好公民,家庭做個好成員”等,不斷激勵著人們。
(2)社會主義思想道德體系應(yīng)該與社會主義法律規(guī)范相協(xié)調(diào)。法治和德治,從來都是相輔相成、相互促進(jìn)的。法治以法律的權(quán)威性和強(qiáng)制性規(guī)范社會成員的行為;德治以道德的說服力和感召力提高社會成員的思想認(rèn)識和道德覺悟。建設(shè)中國特色社會主義,既要加強(qiáng)社會主義法制建設(shè),依法治國;也要加強(qiáng)社會主義思想道德建設(shè),以德治國。◇課堂探究:你能否引述與上述道德規(guī)范相關(guān)法律條文。◇探究提示:上述道德規(guī)范見諸很多法律當(dāng)中,例如:2O()5年4月27日頒布的《中華人民共和國公務(wù)員法》規(guī)定:公務(wù)員應(yīng)當(dāng)“忠于職守,勤勉盡責(zé),服從和執(zhí)行上級依法作出的決定和命令”“遵守紀(jì)律,恪守職業(yè)道德,模范遵守社會公德?!毙抻喓蟮摹吨腥A人民共和國婚姻法》規(guī)定:“夫妻應(yīng)當(dāng)互相忠實(shí),互相尊重;家庭成員間應(yīng)當(dāng)敬老愛幼,互相幫助,維護(hù)平等、和睦、文明的婚姻家庭關(guān)系。”

The theme of this section is “Talk about festival activities and festival experiences”.Festival and holiday is a relaxing and interesting topic for students. This part talks about the topic from the daily life of students’. In the part A ---Listening and Speaking, there are three conversations among different speakers from three countries(Japan, Rio and China), where the speakers are participating in or going to participate in the festivals and celebrations. So listening for the relationship among them is a fundamental task. Actually, with the globalization and more international communication, it is normal for Chinese or foreigners to witness different festivals and celebrations in or out of China. In the Conversation 1, a foreign reporter is interviewing a Japanese young girl who just had participated in the ceremony of the Coming-of-Age Day on the street and asking her feeling about the ceremony and the afterwards activities. Conversation 2, Chinese girl Li Mei is witnessing the Rio Carnival for the first time, and her friend Carla gives her some advice on the costumes which enables her to match with the carnival to have a good time. Conversation 3, a Chinese guide is showing a group of foreign visitors around the Lantern Festival and introducing the customs of the festival to them. The three conversations have a strong vitality and insert the festival and cultural elements from different countries. So perceiving the festivals and cultures from different countries is the second task. At the same time, the scripts also insert the targeted grammar --- v-ing as attributive and predicative, which students can perceive and experience in a real context and make a road for the further study. That is the third task. In the Part B--- Listening and Talking, the theme is “Talk about festival experience”, which is the common topic in our daily conversations. During the conversation, Song Lin, a Chinese student, asked Canadian friend Max about how to spend Christmas. In the conversation, Song Lin talked about experience and the feelings during the Chinese Spring Festival, during which there are not only some enjoyable things but some unpleasant things. After the listening, perhaps students find there are some similarities between Christmas and the Chinese Spring Festival as there are some differences in the origins and celebrations. For example, people always visit friends and relatives, decorate their houses, have a big dinner together, chat and give presents to each other.
