二、写作训练 (P13) 1）Structure Analysis As the name of our textbook implies, we read English in order to write in it. But how to write in the English way?As is known to all of us, what we write reflects what we think; and how we write mirrors how we think. In that light, our best way of writing in English is to know well how to think in English as the American or British people do. What is their way of thinking then? Different from us who think in the spiral way (螺旋式), they tend to think in the linear way (线性方式 ). As far as paragraph writing is concerned, deduction (演绎法) is typical of their linear way of thinking, as shown below: Starting from this book, you are moving from paragraph writing to short essay writing. In a likely manner, however, we will go through the same process for essay writing as we did for paragraph writing. In college writing, an essay normally has three main parts: introduction, body, and conclusion. The introduction is usually one short paragraph that introduces the topic to be discussed and the thesis or thesis-advancing statement which is often placed at the end of the introductory paragraph. The thesis statement can be an opinion, an attitude or a stand about the topic. An introductory paragraph should be inviting to make the reader want to continue reading. A good introduction may start with an anecdote, a short story, an interesting personal account, a thought-provoking question, a famous quotation or a general statement. Read the example now. 2）Writing practice Directions: Write an essay of no less than 150 words on one of the following topics. One topic has an outline you can follow.

Looking for the key idea in a sentence, especially for a complex sentence, is of crucial importance to comprehension of the whole passage. And, finding the key ideas of a sentence is also of great importance since we always read for information. While a sentence may give a great deal of information, it usually offers one key idea. Students must be able to find the key ideas in order to understand sentence meanings clearly. 2) What can the skill “reading for the key ideas in sentences” do for us? It does render students’ ability in reading: It can help readers understand the meaning of a sentence clearly; It can help students separate minor details from the main idea. It can help readers quickly grasp the main idea of the whole paragraph even to the text while doing skipping reading. 3) What to keep in mind to find out the key idea of a sentence? Who or what the sentence is about. What action is taking place. (What is the person or object doing? What is being done to the person or object?) What are minor details and what are the main ideas. (Many words in a sentence describe things about the subject of the sentence but they merely find the details to it. If we ask when, what, where, or why, we will find out these details, which further help us to see the key idea of the sentence.) 4) What to keep in mind to find out the key idea of a sentence? Of course, we cannot always easily decide which details are simply descriptive and which add much to the key idea. However, the starting point for determining the key idea in a sentence is to find who or what the sentence is about and what the person or object is doing. 2. 文本学习 1) Applying the reading skill What can the title “The Great Journey of Learning” tell us? The title “The Great Journey of Learning”, coupled with the topic “Language in Mission” of the unit, tells us the central idea—The process of learning has a profound effect on one’s life. 2) Detailed understanding of the text Read Text B and choose the best answer to each of the questions (Page 24) Read the text again and think about the following questions: 1. Why did Malcolm X want to learn English? Because he was poorly educated, he felt inadequate to teach his new beliefs to others. 2. What motivated Malcolm X to launch on a quest to overcome his language deficiencies? Malcolm X’s considerable frustration at his inability to read and write launched him on a quest to overcome his deficiencies. 3. How did Malcolm X move from basic literacy toward true proficiency? (Para. 5) He copied dictionary, read everything he had written aloud and logged important things that happened every day. Repetition helped move him from basic literacy toward true proficiency. 4. What did Malcolm X obtain from language learning? (Paras. 9-10) Reading had changed forever the course of Malcolm X’s life. As he acquired knowledge, his horizons expanded. He had left behind the narrow, ignorant world of his youth to join the world community of thoughts and actions ever since he started with his great journey of learning English in prison. 3. 知识总结 听说训练 第四次课 教学目的及要求??
