39、学生的主动性和学习兴趣，除进行必要的、经常的目的性的思想教育之外，还要培养他们良好的学习习惯。英语课是一门语言实践课，是一门技能训练课，所以要学生学好英语，必须引导他们仔细听、认真看、勒动脑、多动笔、反复模仿等，即所谓的“眼到、u 到、手到、心到”。在英语课堂上，应鼓励学生大胆地回答老师提出的问题，养成用英语思维的良好习惯；在课外，也要培养学生乐于开口、勤于动手实践的习惯。教学流程一、图片导入 向学生展示一些食品、饮料、运动的图片，引导他们说出图片所包含的内容，复习一些常用词汇 引导学生讨论什么样的饮食习惯与生活方式才有利于健康二、师生互动 播放2a部分的录音，引导学生完成2 a部分的学习任务

64、ago)萨卡杰别开斯村，每 年 11月 1 日都要举行风筝节(KitesDay)o玛雅人(Maya)的风筝节连续举行两天。节日第一天，成千上万的观众赶来观赏。人们在旷野里(inI he open air)放风筝，有时在公墓草地(grass)上进行。据说这是为了悼念死者i 寄托亲人的哀思，祝愿下一代幸福长寿(a happy and long life)玛雅人的风筝很特别(special),它的直径长达三至六米。20世纪初，风筝直径一般不超过五十公分。到本世纪30年代，有人做了一个直径一米二十公分的风筝，并在风筝节上进行放飘表演，获得了成功(success)。此后，风筝越做越大，到了 50年代初，

65、别具匠心的巧手们已经能做出直径四米多的大风筝了。现在玛雅人的风筝可说是世界上最大的一种，需要四五个小伙子合作才能把风筝放上天空。风筝款式大多为圆形，犹如一把撑开的大伞(umbrella)。风筝上绘有各种各样的图画，在风筝上部还插上小旗，把风筝装饰得五颜六色、鲜艳夺目。风筝节上，玛雅人和游人可以互相戏谑取笑，而男女青年也可以谈情说爱，是挑选意中人的美好佳节。玛雅人有许多清规戒律(tal)oos),严禁男女青年在平时随便交往。但在风筝节期间可解除律令，青年男女才能充分利用这个难得相识的机会，相互表达自己的爱慕之情(10ve feelings)。小伙子为了要在风筝上打开爱情的天窗，赢得姑娘的心，往往

66、在风筝节前五至七周就动手制作风筝了。风筝上的画面都有一定含义(meaning),画上两颗心，表示年轻恋人倾心相爱；玫瑰花象征结婚典礼(wedding eeremony)；家兔意味着喜得贵子，幸得千金；鸽子象征着爱情和友谊(friendiship)；苍鹰(goshawk)和老虎则表现风筝设计制造者的英俊、顽强、刚毅和坚定的性格。如果哪一个年轻小伙子能在风筝节上成为优胜者(winner),他就会得到许多姑娘的爱慕。这样，风筝便成为玛雅未婚青年男女相爱的“月下老人”(march.maker)o每 年 11月的前两天，在圣地亚哥萨卡杰别开斯村镇的上空，满天的风筝在迎风飘动，五颜六色，相映生j辉，不仅使人赏心悦目，充分享受风筝节的愉快，同时也寄托着玛雅人对美好前景的向往(long for a brightfuture)o单元综合检测题I.单项填空。(10分)()1.She likes to play today.A.d football B.footballs C.football D.thefootball()2.does Daniel going swimming in the lake?T
