教师播放英文歌A Big Big Girl ,活跃气氛,为上课作好准备。 Warming-up

1. Ask students to talk about the pictures and answer. Do they look good and feel good?

Then show some pictures including a fat person. (Students may laugh) T: Do you feel it’s interesting? Why?

S: In the picture, there’re women models. Women models means they have good figures. But there’s a fat man among them.

T: What kind of person do you like better, the fat or the slim? [设计意图]

课堂一开始教师由幻灯和问题导入新课,为任务呈现作准备,并进一步引发学生对本课话题的好奇心和兴趣。 2. Discuss about this question:

If you are the person who is over-weight, how will you lose weight? Suggested answers

Going on a diet Exercising in a gym Receiving surgical treatments Taking weight-loss pills [设计意图]

简单讨论时下减肥方法,让学生初步认识到吃减肥药是不正确的,有害健康。以此引出今天的话题人物—Amy。 Fast reading

T: To be fat or thin is important for a person? To make it clear, let’s read the three e-mails about Amy fast and do Ex.C1 on Page44.

要求学生根据提供的选择题到课文中寻找相关信息。 Suggested answers 1--6 B D C B B C [设计意图]

通过完成这个任务使学生粗略地了解邮件的内容,同时使快速获取信息的能力得到提高。 Careful reading 1st E-mail

T: What happened to Amy? Please read the first e-mail quickly and retell it. I’ll give you some hints:

Used to go to the gym --Now( take weight-loss pills)-- Why ( be ashamed of…)-- How? (feel … )--But Mum said: dangerous and priceless [设计意图]

运用复述教学方式不仅可以锻炼学生的阅读理解能力并对事件有大致的了解,同时让学生自己组织语言来表述事件经过,给学生语言的替换能力和口头表达能力的锻炼机会。 2nd E-mail

1. T: In the first e-mail ,we know that Amy took the weight-loss pills and lost 7kg,which made her feel not very energetic. Then what happened to her? Did she succeed? Read the second E-mail and fill in the blanks.

where what why

[设计意图]

让学生了解第二封信的主要内容,在此基础上完成以上空格,并训练学生提取并准确表达信息的能力。

2. T: Now that we have read the tow e-mails .Let’s analyse detailly, I think there’re three periods about Amy’s mood, what is her mood in each period?

Period One (in the first E-mail) happy Period Two (in the second E-mail) regretful Period Three (in the hospital) feeling better (The teacher can offer the answers to the students.)

T: We know that in the first e-mail Amy wanted to be thin very much and in the second Amy was going to die because she had taken some weight-loss pills .So what’s the meaning of the title “dying to be thin…”

S: There are two points : 1. Amy really wanted to be thin.

2. Amy was going to die because she had taken some weight-loss pills . [设计意图]
