本文基于高中英语听力教学的课例(外研版选修7 Module 1)研究,以课堂的真实过程为基础,对英语听力课进行反思,从而提出如何进行英语听力课教学的建议。
1. 预设反思问题
上听力课之前所准备的几个问题: 听力课的主要目的是什么? 为什么一篇材料一看就懂,而听却不是那么回事? 听力教学在整个英语教学中起什么作用?听、说、读、写、译在整个高中英语教学中起什么作用?单词音标在高中阶段的长难单词拼写记忆中起什么作用?多读在高中英语教学中起什么作用?尤其是音标读音的条件反射模式需要多久才能建立?孩子们反映的听力不太好,与单词音标读得少有什么关系?
2. 按照课文的设置步骤
选修7 Module 1的LISTENING AND VOCABULARY
2.1 Work in pairs. Before you listen, answer the questions about basket ball.
(1) How many players are there in a basketball team?
A. five B. eleven
(2) How long does a professional NBA basketball game last?
A. There are four 12-minute periods. B. There are two 20-minute halves.
(3) What happens if the scores are a tie at the end of the game?
A. Both teams receive one league point. B. There is overtime of five minutes.
(4) What is a time out?
A. The end of the game.
B. A time when the coach can talk to the players.
答案:AABB
核对答案,必要的地方做点解释,要考虑到本班的实际情况,因为学生的水平基础参差不齐。
这部分内容的作用是引导学生走进听力内容,是听力的热身部分。也是激活学生的大脑中存储的关于篮球比赛的相关材料。
2.2 Listen to Part 1 of the passage. Decide which two people are speaking and when. Choose from the list.
(a) A commentator and a player speaking before a game starts.
(b) Two commentators speaking at the beginning of a game.
(c) Two commentators speaking at the end of a game.
答案:b
这部分听力要求比较简单:听出是谁在比赛的什么时段进行解说,通过与语气和用词可以辨别出是在比赛的开头,两个解说员对比赛的球队双方进行解读,对比赛的结果进行预测性推测。
2.3 Listen to Part 2 of the passage and check the words you hear.
( ) amazed (√) amazing (√) disappointed (√) disappointing ( ) excited (√) exciting (√) exhausted ( ) exhausting
这部分内容是听取解说员的态度,主要是形容词来描述他们激动、失望、惊讶等情感,所以可以从解说员的语音、语调和语气等方面听出来,这一點要给学生点出来。教师懂了并不代表学生就都明白,可能有的少数学生明白,多少学生还没有到达这个反思总结的层次。……
