11、 scanning the title and pictures,students can quickly find specific information they need,for example,Tibetan antelopes,endangered wildlife.The purpose is to inspire the students to read actively,not passively.In addition,the task is aimed to develop the students reading skill by making prediction a

14、e of designSkimming is very fast reading,and a very useful skill of reading.It will allow readers to get information quickly from anything they read.Knowing how to skim will make them better readers.In skimming,the students should attempt to get the main idea of every paragraph plus a few facts.They
15、 cannot hope to pick up all the facts in the story but pick up some facts,names or numbers.In order to get the main ideas and a few of the details,students must begin to leave out material,reading only key sentences and phrases.Read the passage carefully while listening and answer the following ques

23、objective.The only requirement,however,is that each task should be completed step by step.Step FourPurpose of design3.Think over and answer this question.Step FourIntensive Reading lThe author intends to tell us that although the Tibetan antelope has been removed from the endangered species list,the
24、 threats to them have not yet disappeared.,we must change our way of life and learn to exist in harmony with nature.Whats the purpose of this arcticle?Step FourPurpose of designThis question is actually the summary of the passage which emphasizes the intention of the author writing the article.Its a
25、lso what the passage teaches about emotional value.This step of Intensive Reading is the most important part of reading process.It allows students to read every sentence or word to get detailed information such as exact time,place,person,event,cause and effect.Whats more,they can grasp logical relat
26、ionship between sentences and paragraphs through meditation,analyzation,and summarizationStep FourAdditional illustrations Read the sentences below,and decide if each idea is the literal meaning of the text or only implied by the textIdentify literal and implied meaning Identify literal and implied
27、meaning Literal meaning is the usual,basic meaning of the words,i.e.exactly what the words say.Implied meaning is suggested but not directly expressed,i.e.you guess the meaning based on what you know._The Tibetan antelope lives high above sea level.(This is implied by“The air is thin”)_When they fir
28、st saw the antelopes,they were very far away._We should not buy goods made from endangered animals._Human activities are threatening animals and plants._The Tibetan antelope is not an endangered species nowILIIICritical thinking is the ability to think clearly about what to do or what to believe.It
29、includes the ability to engage in independent thinking.Someone with critical thinking skills is able to understand the logical connections between ideas,detect common mistakes in reasoning,and reflect on the judgement of ones own beliefs and values,especially they should distinguish“literal meaning”
30、and“implied meaning”.Step FiveCritical Reading illustrations The literal meaning is the most obvious sense of words.In some cases,when the speaker says a sentence and means exactly and literally what he says,it shows his literal meaning.For example,If a person says,“I keep a lovely bird in the cage”
31、,in fact,there is a bird in the cage.Thats his literal meaning.But there are all sorts of cases where speakers say sentences and mean something different from or even inconsistent with the literal meaning of the sentence.For example,if a person says his father is an early bird,he doesnt really mean
32、his father is a bird but a person who works hard by getting up early.Thats his implied meaning.Step FiveCritical Reading illustrations Implied meaning is not stated directly but can be understood to be what the speaker means in a disguised way.It conveys more than what is said.When you are communica
33、ting with non-native speakers of English,you should be able to judge and distinguish the literal meaning from the implied meaning in case that it might cause confusion and misunderstanding.Step FiveCritical Reading illustrations Complete the passage with the correct forms of the wordsHerds of elepha

37、 can speak English.Make a conversation with the antelope learning about its past and present situation.Your desk mate can play the part of the antelope.Help!Mum,Someone is killing me.Dont be afraid,Dont be afraid,Dear,Ill protect Dear,Ill protect you.you.Guess,whats in my hands?Something good to eat
38、(2min.s)Role-play is an effective technique to animate the teaching and learning atmosphere,arouse the interests of learners,and make the language teaching more impressive.Knowing how to apply it successfully and take the most advantage of it in English class contributes a great deal to the consolid
39、ation of what students have learnt.Purpose of my design:“task-based teaching method”is used here to develop SS ability of communicating with each other.And also their ability of co-operation will be trained.The text is concentrated on what to do for Tibetan antelopes to live in harmony with nature.R

44、ch is the soul of the lesson.As one of the 3-D designed teaching goals,I place it at the back of this class in order to stress its important and significant value.Moving words,pictures,and gentle music are mixed together to arouse students deep thought on the cause of animal extinction and develop s

46、nowledge and skills at their home.For homework in this class,I ask the students to write a short passage about what they should do to protect the wild animals.The assignment requires them to search for various information resources,which can widen their view and continue to inspire their enthusiasm
