靈通英語(yǔ)第一冊(cè)第一單元教案 Unit 1 Education I. Warm-up 1. What have you done in the past vacation? 2. Do you have any suggestions for this semester’s teaching schedule? II. Fun Start—A Fable The North Wind and the Sun were arguing about who was the stronger. Suddenly they saw a traveler coming down the road. The Sun said, “I see a way to settle our argument. Whichever of us can cause that traveler to take off his coat shall be seen as the stronger. You begin.” Then the North Wind blew as hard as he could, but the harder he blew, the tighter the traveler wrapped his coat around him; and at last the North Wind gave up trying. Then the Sun began to shine hot. Soon the traveler found it too hot to walk with his coat on, so he took his coat off. i. Questions 1. What did the North Wind do to make the traveler take off his coat? 2. What did the Sun do, then? 3. Who proved to be stronger, the North Wind or the Sun? 4. What do you think made it successful? ii.Quotes and Proverbs 1. Spare the rod, spoil the child. 2. If you study to remember, you will forget; if you study to understand, you will remember. III. Text A Asian Students in Western Colleges i.Background Information 1. SAT Most colleges require the test for admissions and use it to award scholarships. The SAT is given 7 times per year. The test lasts for 3 hours, 45 minutes. It consists of three sections: Critical Reading, Math and Writing sections (200-800 points per section). Recent additions to the SAT include an essay, grammar, and mathematics. 2. Confucian Ideas Confucianism descends from the Analects (sayings) of a Chinese philosopher named Confucius (551-479 B.C.). Below are the major premises of this philosophy. The Silver Rule—”Do not impose on others that which you yourself do not desire—is the central ethical principle in Confucian thought. Thus, benevolence is the highest good, the gentleman/scholar is the ideal being, and the cultivation of life through study and proper actions is the supreme duty. Note his famous “Five Virtues”: Benevolence, Wisdom, Righteousness, Sincerity and Propriety. ii. Pre-reading Questions 1. Which factor do you think is more important for a student to achieve success in learning, hard work or high IQ? 2. How much do you know about Confucian ideas? iii.Text In America, the land of equal opportunity, Asians seem better able than most other people groups to succeed, especially in the field of education. It is becoming more and more common for the top students in American schools and colleges to be the ones with the Asian faces. In one of the U.S. college entrance exams, the SAT, Asian-Americans had an average score of 1,091, while white students had an average of 1,068, Hispanics 922, and blacks 864. 1. Who seem more successful in American schools? Asians seem more successful. 2. What does “in the field of education” refer to? In schools or in colleges. 3. Who get the highest test scores in American college entrance exams? Asian-Americans. Main idea: Asians are better able people in American schools Asian Students in Western Colleges It isn’t just being Asian, however, that guarantees such amazing test scores. Filipino-Americans, for example, are not usually top academic achievers, although they do very well for themselves overall. The Asians who are usually at the head of the class are mostly those from Asian cultures most strongly influenced by Confucian ideas, such as China, Korea, Japan, and Vietnam. 1. Which countries are these successful Asian students mostly from? China, Korea, Japan and Vietnam. 2. What about students from the Philippines? They are not usually top academic achievers. 3. Why do these students from China, Korea, Japan and Vietnam usually perform better? Because the cultures of these countries are strongly influenced by Confucian ideas. Main idea: Only Asians from Confucian cultures can be top academic achievers. So why do these Asians usually rise to the top of the academic world? Because of their hard-working immigrant background? That might seem to be the answer, but many top students are Asians no longer from immigrant families, but from families which have lived in the U.S. for three or four generations. Another theory that some scientists have suggested is that Asians from Confucian cultures generally have a higher IQ because of having a culture with longer history of jobs that depended on brains rather than just physical strength. This theory, though interesting, is not supported by the facts, as these Asians are not as a rule academically successful in other countries around the world. 1. What kind of families are many of the Asians from? From families which have lived in the U.S. for three or four generations. 2. According to some scientists, why do Asians from Confucian cultures generally have a higher IQ? Because of having a culture with longer history emphasizing jobs requiring mental ability. 3. Why isn’t the theory supported by the facts? Because these Asians are not successful everywhere else in the world. Main idea: Two possible reasons why Asians rise to the top of the academic world. The general conclusion of most is that Asians’ academic success is, in large part, due to the strong influence of the Confucian ideas of filial piety, respect for education, and hard work. These Confucian ideas together with the Western system of higher education have made the perfect environment for success for young Asian students. 1.According to the passage, what are the Confucian ideas? Filial piety, respect for education and hard work. 2. What function has the Western system of higher education performed in the success of Asian students? It has helped to make the perfect environment for success for young Asian students. Main idea: Confucian ideas together with the Western system of higher education have made the perfect environment for success for young Asian students. ⅳ. Vocabulary Study 1.
