Q: “Long time no see” and “Have you had your meal” are two typical sentences of greeting when Chinese people meet each other. Suppose President Hu greeted President Bush in this way, how would Mr. Bush react to it?

Q1: As we all know, different countries have different cultures and customs. Look at the following pictures. In which countries do people greet each other in the way like the people in each picture do?

Q2: Why do people greet each other in different ways in different parts of the world?

1. Do you think it’s important to learn cultural differences between different nations? Why?

2. Have you ever experienced cultural differences in your life?

Go through the passage as quickly as possible and try to find answers to the three questions. Just focus on and identify the information needed to answer these questions.

1.     What’s the style of the text?

2.     How many subjects of cultural differences are mentioned in the text?

3.     What are these subjects?

Fill in a form about different

reactions of people from

different countries in different

situations.

1. Do you know some other

gestures which have different

meanings in different parts of

the world?

2. What else do you know

About the cultural differences

between China and other

countries?

1.     Comparison:

Make comparisons between The Double Seventh Festival in China and Valentine’s Day in western countries and ask students which one they think is more interesting to them.

2.     Discussion:                                                                  Nowadays more and more Chinese young people are crazy about Western festivals like Valentine’s Day and gradually forget about Chinese traditional festivals. What’s your opinion?

Of course all the students will laugh and agree that Mr. Bush will be totally at a loss

Students are asked to describe all the pictures to find out the differences in the ways of greeting..

Students will come to a conclusion that the reason lies in cultural differences

Give students 4 mins to discuss with each other in pairs and share their opinions and experiences

Students will read the text quickly and find out the answers to the three questions.

Students will read the text carefully this time and fill in the blanks in the form.

Give students 10mins to talk about these two questions in groups and then ask two or three groups to tell their opinions to the rest of the class.

Give students 15mins to work in small groups and then present their ideas to all of us.

以胡錦濤主席會(huì)見(jiàn)布什總統(tǒng)的照片作為導(dǎo)入，假設(shè)胡主席用中國(guó)人最常用的問(wèn)候方式打招呼，布什總統(tǒng)會(huì)是什么反應(yīng)？以此吸引學(xué)生注意力，活躍課堂氣氛。

讓學(xué)生了解各國(guó)打招呼的方式，增加跨文化知識(shí)，并得出結(jié)論，打招呼方式的不同源自各國(guó)間的文化差異，引出閱讀文章的主題：Cultural Differences

提高學(xué)生口語(yǔ)交流能力，并給予個(gè)別同學(xué)機(jī)會(huì)，讓他們與全班同學(xué)分享自己曾在國(guó)外受文化差異沖擊的親身經(jīng)歷，更具有說(shuō)服力。

培養(yǎng)學(xué)生快速閱讀并迅速找到較簡(jiǎn)單問(wèn)題答案的能力。

并能形成對(duì)文章框架及大意的整體理解。

培養(yǎng)學(xué)生精讀能力。在仔細(xì)閱讀過(guò)程中找到填表所需要的細(xì)節(jié)信息，同時(shí)對(duì)文章有更進(jìn)一步的理解。

此時(shí)學(xué)生的課外知識(shí)得以很好地發(fā)揮，給平時(shí)對(duì)各國(guó)文化感興趣的同學(xué)以展示的平臺(tái)。

由文化差異引出身邊關(guān)于中西方情人節(jié)對(duì)比的熱議話題。從課文內(nèi)容進(jìn)一步延伸，弘揚(yáng)愛(ài)國(guó)主義情感，讓學(xué)生意識(shí)到?jīng)]有必要盲從西方文化，我國(guó)傳統(tǒng)文化對(duì)我們更有意義，更值得保護(hù)和流傳。

教學(xué)反思

 通過(guò)本課教學(xué)，鍛煉了學(xué)生泛讀、精度以及在課文中尋找細(xì)節(jié)信息的能力。并通過(guò)同桌及小組討論，了解到更多文化差異方面的信息。既提高了學(xué)生的興趣，也提高了他們跨文化交流的知識(shí)水平和能力。最后的討論將學(xué)生的愛(ài)國(guó)情感提高到一個(gè)新的層面，有利于培養(yǎng)青少年不盲目接受西方文化，而要尊重及保護(hù)中國(guó)傳統(tǒng)文化的意識(shí)。但由于一個(gè)課時(shí)內(nèi)要完成Welcome和Reading兩個(gè)部分，時(shí)間略顯緊張，學(xué)生討論的時(shí)間不夠充分，只能給部分同學(xué)展示的機(jī)會(huì)，有些遺憾。
