老師們,同學(xué)們:早上好,我是來自初三(11)班孫絲。今天我演講的題目是:中考,青春永不言敗“十年磨一劍,只為中考戰(zhàn),志同心相連,我輩必沖天。我們要做到:不做怯懦的退縮,不做無益的彷徨,我們將喚醒所有的潛能,我們將凝聚全部的力量,將拼搏進行到底,將中考進行到底。流年似水,不應(yīng)該只將淚水鐫刻;風(fēng)雨如磐,不應(yīng)該只把羽翼淬火;或許曾經(jīng)迷惘,或許曾經(jīng)哀傷,然而,沒有地獄的錘煉,哪來建造天堂的力量?沒有流血的手指,哪能彈出世間的絕唱?我們沒有理由,也沒有借口,與成功擦身而過。用我們所有的青春、熱情和義無反顧的勇氣締造中考的神話。而今的我們,每一次的昂首,都是生命中永遠(yuǎn)的從容;每一次的微笑,都是擦干淚水后的堅定。
寫作指導(dǎo):第一題要求寫出自然美,在自然美中融進自己的感情。小路、流水、山巒、森林、天空、大海……都是實體事物,因此首先要求用寫生的辦法把它們表現(xiàn)出來,要寫得準(zhǔn)確,寫出它們的特點和個性,尤其是寫出它們的美。同時,也要把贊美之情不落痕跡地融化在描寫之中。第二題是寫一幅風(fēng)景畫或一張風(fēng)景照片中的自然美景,以及美景中的一些細(xì)節(jié),同時把自己心動的感覺寫出來。在這里,關(guān)鍵是找到畫或照片中的美,找到心動的感覺,如果找到了,再用文字把這美和感覺表達(dá)出來。當(dāng)然,寫風(fēng)景美和寫自己的感覺應(yīng)是乳水交融的。第三題是用動情的筆墨把自己的一種經(jīng)歷寫出來。這些經(jīng)歷似乎都是細(xì)節(jié),都不是驚天動地的大事。是細(xì)節(jié),就容易碰到,在題目列舉的四種中,學(xué)生不難找到。即使不在這四種中,也可以,只要這種經(jīng)歷給了自己心靈以震撼或潛移默化的影響。
1、變換角度,多向思維(多向思維要求思維能針對問題,從不同角度,用多種方法去思考問題。對于作文而言,就是要使學(xué)生學(xué)會對同一問題,同一素材,同一題目,同一體裁的不同進行區(qū)分。)請學(xué)生從這則材料中分析出幾個角度,準(zhǔn)備課堂交流:19世紀(jì)法國著名科幻小說家儒勒?凡爾納,一生寫了104部科幻小說。當(dāng)初他的第一部科幻小說《氣球上的星期五》接連被15家出版社退回。他當(dāng)時既痛苦又氣憤,打算將稿子付之一炬。他妻子奪過書稿,給他以鼓勵。于是他嘗試著走進第16家出版社。經(jīng)理赫哲爾閱讀后,當(dāng)即表示同意出版,還與儒勒?凡爾納簽訂了為期20年的寫作出版合同。這則材料敘述時沒有一定的中心,屬于開發(fā)性材料,分析材料中人物、人物關(guān)系、故事的不同側(cè)面,可以從不同角度得出結(jié)論:
虛構(gòu)不等于說假話。它是一種源于生活,但高于生活的藝術(shù)真實。我們可以舉個例子:我國公認(rèn)的最權(quán)威最真實的史書是——《史記》,那么,大家認(rèn)為《史記》里有沒有虛構(gòu)呢?有。必修一的《鴻門宴》里就有虛構(gòu)。大家想:司馬遷是哪個朝代的人?西漢漢武帝時。劉邦項羽是哪個朝代的?秦末時期。那司馬遷不可能坐時光穿梭機到秦末去參加鴻門宴吧?既然他沒不在場,那課文《鴻門宴》里人物的語言、動作、甚至是表情從何而來呢?對,是司馬遷根據(jù)有限的史料加以補充,想象、虛構(gòu)出來的。那么,同學(xué)們在寫作文時,也可以不必拘泥于親身經(jīng)歷的事情,畢竟生活是平淡的,畢竟大家的生活閱歷也有限,有時候,我們發(fā)揮想象、虛構(gòu)一個故事來反映生活的真實,也許更生動、也更典型。所以,近年來高考試卷中都提示考生:作文可以大膽想象,編寫故事。按照編故事的方式不同,我們的虛構(gòu)性作文又可以寫哪些類型呢:小說,散文,童話,寓言,科幻,故事新編……
①闡發(fā)話題式:就是用簡練的語言對所給話題材料加以概括和濃縮,并找到一個最佳切入點加以深層次闡述。吉林一考生的滿分作文《漫談“感情”“認(rèn)知”》的題記是:“同是對‘修墻’‘防盜’的預(yù)見,卻產(chǎn)生‘聰明’或‘被懷疑’的結(jié)果?!星椤鼓苋绱说刈笥抑J(rèn)知’,心的小舟啊,在文化的河流中求索?!边@個題記通過對材料的簡單解釋,將“感情”與“認(rèn)知”二者的關(guān)系詮釋得非常明白,也點明了作者的態(tài)度和議論的中心。②詮釋題目式:所擬題目一般都具有深刻性特點,運用題記形式對題目進行巧妙而又全面的詮釋。云南一考生的滿分作文《與你同行》的題記是:“他們一路同行,一個汲著水,一個負(fù)著火,形影相隨。在他們攜手共進時,就產(chǎn)生了智慧?!边@個題記形象而深刻地對“與你同行”這個題目進行了解釋,言簡意賅,表明了考生對感情和理智關(guān)系的認(rèn)識。
《貧寒是福天道酬勤石智勇從挫折中奮起》也許是自幼的貧寒生活塑造了石智勇內(nèi)向的性格,即使是胸掛金燦燦的獎牌接受全場觀眾歡呼,他的表情也是略顯羞澀的。小時候吃不飽肚皮的經(jīng)歷讓他至今在“最喜歡的東西”一欄還填寫著“食物”二字,而“窮人的孩子早當(dāng)家”的堅韌,卻又是促成他今日輝煌的動力。中國舉重隊副總教練陳文斌賽后說道:“智勇這幾年練得很苦,今天終于有了這樣的成績,這是天道酬勤的結(jié)果。石智勇的奧運會金牌是中國男舉的一次突破,我們非常激動?!痹谙ED神話里,命運女神總是讓英雄歷經(jīng)磨難。石智勇也不例外。四年前的悉尼奧運會前夕,他在一次訓(xùn)練中扭傷腳踝,失去了參賽機會?!爱?dāng)時我傷心極了,不敢看電視直播,我怕參賽的選手成績太低了。高點我還好一點,自欺欺人一下說,哎呀好高,自己去了也拿不了冠軍,要是低了,自己沒去,失去冠軍機會,心里痛啊。后來結(jié)果出來,也不怎么高,心里真難受?!?/p>
方法點撥教師:有的同學(xué)敘述事實論據(jù)時,不突出重點和精華,不注意取舍,水分太多,有許多的敘述描寫,有時還有詳細(xì)的故事情節(jié),文章幾乎成了記敘文,使文章的論點無法得到充分的證明,這是寫議論文的大忌。那么:議論文中的記敘有哪些特點?同學(xué)各抒己見。投影顯示:1.議論中的記敘不是單純的寫人記事,記敘文字是為議論服務(wù)的,其目的是為作者所闡明的道理提供事實依據(jù)。所以,在記敘時要求簡潔、概括,舍棄其中的細(xì)節(jié),僅僅交代清楚事件或者人物的概貌即可,一般不在各種描寫手段上下功夫,只要把能證明觀點的那個部分、側(cè)面交代清楚就行了。2.議論文中的記敘性文字不得超過總字?jǐn)?shù)的1/3,否則視為文體不當(dāng)。能力提升一、教師:了解了議論文中的記敘的特點,接下來我們看看今天的話題:“愛的奉獻(xiàn)”,你想從哪個角度立論?有哪些素材?
論證方法之引證法如何用好引證法:1.所引用的名言警句等針對性要強。每句名言都產(chǎn)生于特定的背景,都應(yīng)用于特定的交際目的,即使談同一個問題,也有不少名言可供選取。2.要簡潔,不宜過多。議論是在發(fā)表自己的見解而不是在介紹他人的見解。引用他人的話,目的是為了讓讀者更加信服自己的話。3.要注意直接引用和間接引用的區(qū)別。直接引用務(wù)求文字、甚至標(biāo)點均準(zhǔn)確無誤;間接引用只須述其大意,但要注意人稱的轉(zhuǎn)換。論證方法之喻證法喻證法是用設(shè)喻來論證論點的方法。在議論文中,設(shè)喻可以使論點更易懂、更風(fēng)趣、更容易獲得讀者的認(rèn)同。喻證法能化抽象為具體、化艱深為淺顯、化枯燥為生動。論證方法之喻證法如何用好喻證法:1.以小見大,就近取譬。要精選生活中細(xì)小的、人們熟悉的事物做為設(shè)喻的喻體。2.喻體不求形似,只求神似。做為喻證的喻體與做為比喻的喻體不同。比喻的喻體是為了強調(diào)特征,描繪事物,側(cè)重形似,以形比形;而喻證的喻體是為了闡發(fā)觀點,以正視聽,力求神似,以義取形。
一、語文學(xué)習(xí)中學(xué)生自我評價能力的培養(yǎng)1.營造氛圍,培養(yǎng)學(xué)生自我評價的意識。學(xué)生自我評價能力是教師長期培養(yǎng)的結(jié)果,而保護學(xué)生自我評價的熱情,更是持續(xù)自我評價的保證。在我們的實際教育教學(xué)中,教師一直處于評價的絕對主體,很少去關(guān)注學(xué)生自我評價意識和能力的培養(yǎng),學(xué)生常常不理解:為什么要認(rèn)真聽講?為什么書寫要工整、為什么發(fā)言要積極?為什么老師、父母對考試分?jǐn)?shù)會有那么高的要求?當(dāng)前出現(xiàn)的學(xué)生許多諸如“離家出走”、“毒殺親人”等教育、行為、品德方面的問題,我想其中除了家長、教師的評價意識和評價藝術(shù)等原因之外,學(xué)生的自我評價意識的缺乏是根本的原因。所以我認(rèn)為,學(xué)生自我評價意識的培養(yǎng)刻不容緩。(1)熱情鼓勵,提供成功的心理體驗。在教學(xué)過程中,教師要善于發(fā)現(xiàn)、肯定學(xué)生自我評價的點滴進步,對于他們每一點進步都要真誠熱情地鼓勵。讓學(xué)生覺得我這么做,這么想是對的。讓學(xué)生在教師的鼓勵中體會到強烈的愛,感受到自己的進步,增強自己的信心?!靶娜粼?,夢就在!”教師的熱情鼓勵是一種強大的催化劑,促使學(xué)生在學(xué)習(xí)中樂于自我評價。
教學(xué)目標(biāo):1、了解文學(xué)作品解讀的個性化及其原因。2、探討個性化解讀遵循的基本原則,合理解讀文學(xué)作品。教學(xué)重點:引導(dǎo)學(xué)生關(guān)注文學(xué)現(xiàn)象,培養(yǎng)他們對文學(xué)作品理解的多重思維能力。教學(xué)難點:把握個性化的度。避免偏激的理解、過度的張揚所謂個性,嚴(yán)重歪曲文學(xué)作品。教學(xué)方法:導(dǎo)讀、計論、合作探究。教學(xué)時間:一課時教學(xué)過程:一、創(chuàng)設(shè)情境、揭題導(dǎo)入:記得有這樣一個故事:一個小孩在四歲就能背《登鸛雀樓》,可平時只有在大人的要求下,他才背出來。直到六歲的某一天,他父母帶他去旅游,在他登陸上山頂時,竟然隨口背出:“欲窮千里目,更上一層樓”來。這說明了什么?……(討論)文學(xué)作品解讀的個性化。二、探討個性化解讀的原因1、讀者的差異導(dǎo)致解讀的個性化A、同一作品,閱讀的時間不同,解讀不同。如上面的例子。如《從百草園到三味書屋》和《風(fēng)箏》主題的多元化理解?!皽毓手隆?,名作重讀,不但有趣,而且有益。B、同一作品,不同讀者,解讀不同。
七、聯(lián)系實際·拓展延伸看云起云飛——交流對我國現(xiàn)代科技發(fā)展轉(zhuǎn)機的看法甲生說:本文作者把成立京師大學(xué)堂、廢除科舉、派遣留學(xué)生看作三件有劃時代意義的大事,是很有見地的。京師大學(xué)堂是戊戌變法的產(chǎn)物,是北京大學(xué)的前身,是我國第一次設(shè)立的大學(xué),所教東西比較全面,包括了現(xiàn)代的科學(xué)。這表明,國人已經(jīng)從先前的自大、愚昧的精神狀態(tài)中轉(zhuǎn)過彎來。先前不少人把西方科技看作是雕蟲小技,而認(rèn)為我們才是正宗的。這是狂妄自大。又有一些人走到另一個極端去,產(chǎn)生了什么“種族退代論”,這是自卑感在作怪。成立京師大學(xué)堂,標(biāo)志著國人的認(rèn)識產(chǎn)生了根本的變化。我們對西方科技有了正確的認(rèn)識,看到科技在國計民生中起的重要作用,克服了自大缺點。我們又重新樹立了信心,認(rèn)識到,改革教育、辦好學(xué)校,我們也同樣能夠培養(yǎng)出一批優(yōu)秀的科技人才,同樣可以發(fā)展科技,借以富民強國,這就克服了自卑感。
(三)合作探究、精講點撥。探究一:探究問題:如何看待排名一名高中生在談到“排名的二重性”時說:“我們既不能盲目地張揚排名,也不能簡單地否定排名。作為學(xué)生,如果用片面的觀點對待排名,排在前面沾沾自喜、驕傲自滿,排在后面灰心喪氣、一蹶不振,就會停滯不前,甚至倒退;如果通過排名了解自己的學(xué)習(xí)實力以及同別人的差距,做到知彼知己,揚長避短,就會出現(xiàn)先進更先進、后進趕先進的生動局面?!眴栴}:(1)在排名問題上,人們的看法往往各不相同,這是為什么?(2)為什么我們應(yīng)看到排名的“二重性”?(3)聯(lián)系生活中類似的事例,談?wù)勆钆c哲學(xué)的關(guān)系。教師活動:指導(dǎo)學(xué)生閱讀以上的材料,并思考所提問題。學(xué)生活動:閱讀材料,分組討論問題,發(fā)表自己的觀點,分析材料中包含的哲學(xué)道理。教師點評:(1)在排名問題上,人們的看法不同,主要是因為人們的思維方法不同。
一、教材分析本框題包括什么是哲學(xué)的基本問題、為什么思維和存在的關(guān)系問題是哲學(xué)的基本問題兩個目題。第一個問題:什么是哲學(xué)的基本問題。其邏輯順序是:什么是哲學(xué)的基本問題→哲學(xué)的基本問題所包含的兩方面的內(nèi)容→對哲學(xué)的基本問題第一方面內(nèi)容的不同回答是劃分唯物主義和唯心主義的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)→對哲學(xué)的基本問題第二方面內(nèi)容的不同回答是劃分可知論和不可知論的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。第二個問題:為什么思維和存在的關(guān)系問題是哲學(xué)的基本問題。其 邏輯順序是:思維和存在的關(guān)系問題是人們在現(xiàn)實生活和實踐活動中遇到的和無法回避的基本問題→思維和存在的關(guān)系問題,是一切哲學(xué)都不能回避的、必須回答的問題→思維和存在的關(guān)系問題,貫穿于哲學(xué)發(fā)展的始終,對這個問題的不同回答決定著各種哲學(xué)的基本性質(zhì)和方向,決定著對其它哲學(xué)問題的回答。 二、教學(xué)目標(biāo)(一)知識目標(biāo)(1)識記哲學(xué)的基本問題(2)解釋哲學(xué)的基本問題
4.That was an experience that frightened everyone. →That was _____________________. 答案:1. taking 2. being discussed 3. in the reading room 4. a frightening experienceStep 6 The meaning and function of V-ing as the predicative動詞-ing形式作表語,它通常位于系動詞后面,用以說明主語“是什么”或“怎么樣”一種表示主語的特質(zhì)、特征和狀態(tài), 其作用相當(dāng)于形容詞; 另一種具體說明主語的內(nèi)容, 即主語等同于表語, 兩者可互換。The music they are playing sounds so exciting. 他們演奏的音樂聽起來令人激動。The result is disappointing. 結(jié)果令人失望。Our job is playing all kinds of music. 我們的工作就是演奏各種音樂。Seeing is believing. 眼見為實。Step 7 Practice1.

The topic of this part is “Discover the reasons for festivals and celebrations.The Listening & Speaking & Talking part aims at talking about the experiences and feelings or emotions about the festivals and celebrations. This section aims at detecting the reason why the people celebrate the festivals, the time, the places, the types and the way of celebrations. It also explains why some traditions in the old celebrations are disappearing, like the firecrackers in the big cities and some new things are appearing like the prosperity of business or commerce. 1. Students can talk about what festivals they know and the reasons and the way of celebrating them.2. Students should learn the reading skills such as the headline and get the topic sentences, the structures of articles.3. Students can understand the past, the present situation of some festival around the world and why there are some changes about them. 4. Students can have the international awareness about the festivals.1. Students should learn the reading skills such as the headline and get the topic sentences, the structures of articles.2. Students can understand the past, the present situation of some festival around the world and why there are some changes about them.Step 1 Lead in---Small talkWhat festival do you like best ? Why ?I like the Spring Festivals because I can set off the fireworks, receive the lucky money and enjoy the Gala with my families.Step 2 Before reading---Pair workWhy do people celebrate different festivals ?The Spring Festivals is to celebrate the end of winter and the coming of spring and new life.The Mid-autumn Day is to celebrate the harvest and admire the moon.
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.
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.
The topic of this part is “Write about your festival experience”.During the Listening and Speaking and Talking, students are just asked to say out their festival experiences such as the Spring Festival, Mid-autumn Day, but this part students will be asked to write down their own festival experiences. During the reading part, it introduces the Naadam Festival in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, which can give students a good example to imitate. Students not only learn the festival, but touch and feel the Inner Mongolian’s character, the spirit and cultural atmosphere, which can help students form the cultural awareness and learn to enjoy and value the diversity of Chinese culture.Concretely, the dairy tells the experience that the author spent the Naadam Festival in Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region with his/her friend. The structure is clear. In the opening paragraph, it introduces the topic of the Naadam Festival and the whole feeling. Then it introduces the items of the festival like the ceremony, wrestling and horse racing. Finally, it summarizes this experience. Because this part is a travel journal, we must guide students pay more attention to these details: 1. use the first person. 2. use the past tense to tell the past thing and use the present or future tense to describe the scenery. 3. use the timeline to tell the development. 4. be careful for the author’s psychology, emotion and feeling, etc.1. Read quickly to get main idea; read carefully to get the detailed information about Naadam Festival.2. Learn the structure of the reading article and language.3. Write an article about a festival experience4. Learn to use the psychology, emotions and feeling in the writing.1. Write an article about a festival experience.2. Use the structure of the reading article and language.

Example:One day, a poor boy who was trying to pay his way through school by sending newspapers door to door found that he only had one dime(一角)left. He was so hungry that he decided to beg for a meal at the next house.However, he lost his nerve when a lovely young woman opened the door. Instead of a meal he asked for a drink of water. She thought he looked hungry so she brought him a large glass of milk. He drank it slowly, and then asked, “How much do I owe you?” “You don’t owe me anything,” she replied, “Mother has taught me never to accept pay for a kindness.” “Then I thank you from the bottom of my heart.” With these words, Howard Kelly left that house.Years later the woman became badly ill and was finally sent to the hospital in a big city. Dr. Howard Kelly, now famous, was called in. When he heard the name of the town she came from, a strange light filled his eyes. Dressed in his doctor’s clothes, Dr. Kelly went into her room and recognized her at once. From that day on, he gave special attention to her, and decided to do his best to save her life.At last the woman was saved. Dr. Kelly asked the business office to pass the final bill to him. He looked at it and then wrote something on the side. The bill was sent to the woman’s room. She was afraid to open it because she was sure that it would take the rest of her life to pay for it off. Finally she looked, and the note on the side of the bill caught her attention. She read these words: “Paid in full with a glass of milk, Dr. Howard Kelly.” Tear of joy flooded her eyes.
