英语寒暑假作业怎么编?

熊老师经常苦恼,如果不做寒暑假作业,长假后学生们不仅会忘记很多英语单词,而且语感也会退化很多。但是想给学生布置一些寒暑假作业,很难找到合适的寒暑假作业。如果让学生选择现有的寒暑假作业,不仅经常会出现作业量不当或难度不符的问题,而且寒暑假作业太枯燥,可能会被学生抛弃,达不到预期的效果。

针对这种情况,建议教师们考虑亲自为学生做暑假作业。那么,怎样做英语的寒暑假作业呢?以下是熊老师写的关于寒暑假作业的粗浅探索和尝试。

一、良好的英语仲夏作业评价标准

对英语寒暑假作业的评价没有确定的标准。仁者见仁智者见智。熊老师认为,好的英语寒暑假作业至少符合知识性、趣味性、难度等几个标准。其中,知识性是根本,趣味性和难度适当是必要条件。编得好的仲夏作业很难适当地做,必须是知识和趣味高度结合的产物。这种寒暑假作业会让学生们心甘情愿地完成,学习收入。

知识性是仲夏作业编写的根本条件。我们写寒暑假作业的原因是希望学生们在完成作业时能够巩固知识,达到学习的目的。好的寒暑假作业要有较强的知识性。学生完成寒暑假作业后,不仅要对上学期学的知识有一定的启发和理解,还要对下学期的新知识有一定的启发和理解。学生完成作业后,如果收效甚微或毫无收入,这个作业不仅会白白浪费老师的时间和精力,还会浪费写寒暑假作业的时间和精力。没有知识性的仲夏作业不需要存在。

乐趣是英语寒暑假作业的必要条件。为什么是必要条件?首先,寒暑假作业是假期要完成的作业,所以假期里学生的心态处于相对放松或懒惰的状态,所以太枯燥的寒暑假作业会让学生厌烦,即使不得不完成,也会乱应付。相反,充满乐趣的寒暑假作业会引起学生的兴趣,积极完成。第二,寒暑假作业是在没有老师督促的情况下学生一个人完成的作业。如果寒暑假作业没有意思,就不能吸引学生完成,就失去了作业的意义,也就无法达到想要的效果。

另外,老师们在写英语寒暑假作业时,要把握好寒暑假作业的难度,根据本校本年级学生的学习水平选择合适的题目。考虑到暑假学生的状态比较放松,寒暑假作业最好减少难题。最好以中间题目为主。制定作业题目顺序时,最好从容易到难依次排列。让学生越来越过分,不要一开始就列出最难的主题,让学生害怕,不要厌倦观看。

二、英语寒暑假作业量和题型设计。

做英语寒暑假作业时,要根据学生的英语水平设置适当的题量。作业量太大,学生难以完成,不仅造成人力和物力的浪费,还给学生带来巨大的压力,引起学生对英语学习的厌烦。作业量太少,没有达到训练的目的。因此,写寒暑假作业时,要根据假期天数决定寒暑假作业量。熊老师认为平均每天30分钟到1小时的题量是合适的。特别是寒假作业,问题量相对减少,所以要给学生适当放松春节,留出探亲的时间。

熊老师在做寒假作业的时候,经常编排15个单元,约20小时的分量。(有看电影等任务,一部电影大约2个小时左右。)暑假作业时,可以根据30分钟到1小时的题量设置为一个小单位(unit),要求学生每天完成一个单位。此外,可以以周为单位填写,一周的提问量可以作为一个大单位,一个大单位涵盖除听力问题外的所有传统题型和各种有趣的新题型,整个单元包括约4至8小时的练习量。

在主题型设计方面,为了提高寒暑假作业的趣味性,在编写英语寒暑假作业时,可以设计出更丰富多样的主题型。除了听力、阅读、完成、语法填充、纠错、作文题等高考考试中考试的传统题型外,还可以制作更有趣的题型。比如看英语电影、学英文歌、读英语书、写英语日记、摘录名人名言、谜语问题、绕口令问题、朗读问题、背问题等。这种题型不仅可以提高寒暑假作业的趣味性,让学生以轻松有趣的方式学习或复习英语,还可以让学生接触到更加地道的英语,扩大学生的课外知识面。

有趣的主题型中,学生们最推崇的主题型是看英语电影、学习英语歌曲、谜语、口令问题、朗读等。熊老师在学生中进行过小范围的调查,发现很多学生暑假比较喜欢的活动是看电视、看电影、听歌等。对此,熊老师结合学生的兴趣活动和寒暑假作业,设计了看英文电影、学英文歌曲等题型。

英语电影和英文歌都是学习英语的好素材,电影中的台词是原初的英语,英语台词不太规范,但能让学生感受到英语使用的不同语境,加上学生对电影或歌曲的热爱,学习充满了强烈的兴趣,更加令人印象深刻。

在看英语电影的时候,为了防止学生看暴力色情的电影,熊老师在给学生看英语电影问题时经常会出范围,例如结合所学的课文,安排学生看《百万英镑》、《窈窕淑女》、《威尼斯商人》等。

正在度过寒暑假

作业的时候,可以把有趣味性的题目和传统的题目穿插编在一起,或者创造性地把一种或者几种传统和有趣题型结合在一起,增强寒暑假作业的趣味性和多样性。例如,把英语幽默故事或者英语笑话和阅读理解相结合。即,在设计传统的阅读理解题时,选择内容幽默风趣的故事或者选择英语笑话当做阅读内容,增加了题目的趣味性,让学生在轻松阅读的过程中学有所得。

又例如:把看电影和写作相结合。让学生在观看英美电影时体会原汁原味的英语使用意境,之后,让他们写观后感,写出他们对电影的理解和感受。或者让他们把看电影和学习体会地道的英语句子相结合,在看电影的时候,把自己喜欢的英语台词摘抄下来,体会那些句子在电影中的使用。或者针对电影内容、人物或者台词发表自己的见解。

有一位学生在一篇电影观后感中写道,他看到电影字幕上出现"Oh, my!"这样的台词,而字幕上的翻译是"哦,我的"。学生就提出了,他认为那样的翻译不对,至少是翻译得不好。他提出,那句"Oh, my!"相当于"Oh, my God!",按照电影中的情节,应该翻译成"哦,天啊!"或者"哦,我的天啊!"熊老师对于他的见解很是赞同,同时也为学生们完成寒暑假作业时在完成作业,巩固知识的同时对英语的学习有更深刻的理解而倍感欣慰。

三、英语寒暑假作业的布置、完成和提交方式

传统的寒暑假作业的布置和提交方式往往是:把寒暑假作业印刷在纸张上,放假之前发下去,让学生在假期中完成作业,假期结束之后,把寒暑假作业收上来。

这样的方式对老师来说相对轻松简便,只要编好试题印刷出来,分发给学生就可以了。但是,这样的传统方式有一些弊端,比如:不少学生往往是在假期结束之前才匆匆忙忙赶作业,甚至还有学生为了应付而抄答案。

熊老师在此介绍一种在网络上布置寒暑假的方式。有条件的老师,可以用如今比较流行的网络培训模式,通过网络平台:网络论坛、QQ组群、微信组群等,定点签到,布置适量的作业,限时提交作业答案。

比如说,在班级的QQ群里定时签到,签到的考勤也算是寒暑假作业分数的一部分。签到之后开始布置作业,设置一定的答题时间,时间到之后让学生提交作业答案,然后,老师公布参考答案,让学生交换批改并打分,统计分数,签退。此外,如果学校有门户网站的话,在网上布置寒暑假作业会更加方便:老师可以在学校的门户网站开设寒暑假作业专栏,定期发布寒暑假作业,让学生定期提交寒暑假作业的答案。

这样利用网络布置寒暑假作业有利有弊。

有利的方面是:

1. 利用网络的平台可以设置更加丰富多样的寒暑假作业题型,比如学唱英文歌曲或者背诵课文等,可以让学生直接在网络上提交语音文件,这是传统的方式无法完成的。

2. 利用网络的平台布置寒暑假作业本身就是比较新颖的方式,而学生对于使用电脑和手机比较感兴趣。这样用电脑或手机完成寒暑假作业的新颖时尚的方式会增强学生完成作业的兴趣。让学生乐意写寒暑假作业,积极写寒暑假作业,甚至还可以提高学生学习英语的兴趣。

3. 利用网络的平台布置寒暑假作业,可以帮助学生树立正确的网络、电脑、手机的使用观念。不少学生都以为网络、电脑、手机仅仅是游戏娱乐的工具,利用网络的平台布置寒暑假作业,不仅满足了他们对电脑手机的好奇心,也让他们明白,网络、电脑、手机还有更重要的功能:工作和学习。

4. 利用网络布置寒暑假作业可以节约纸张,节约作业成本。

然而,正如那句英文谚语说道的那样"Every coin has its two sides. (任何事情都有利弊两面)",利用网络的平台布置寒暑假作业也有一些弊端。就熊老师所知,利用网络的平台布置寒暑假作业有如下两个方面:

1. 难以监管。让学生使用电脑或者使用手机来完成作业,需要学生有比较强的自制力,否则可能会有部分学生利用电脑、手机进行娱乐、游戏,从而荒废了作业。

2. 需要老师在假期里抽时间来监管学生,需要老师花费大量的时间和精力。牺牲了老师的寒暑假休息时间。不过,这一点可以培训课代表和其他班干组织来克服。老师可以在放假之前培训好几个班里的骨干,让班里的骨干代为管理,这样老师只要在方便的实话露个脸抽查一下就可以了。

教师为自己的学生量身打造一份充满趣味性的寒暑假作业。不仅可以让学生在假期里也可以轻松学习英语,巩固复习,学习新知识,还可以激发学生学习英语的兴趣。

V Reading Comprehension(阅读理解)

A

Dear Highlights,

My sister is always in a bad mood, which gets me in a bad mood. What should I do?

Tessa, Virginia

It can be hard to be around someone who is in a bad mood. Since you can’t change another person’s mood, try to focus on what you can control: your own mood and reaction.

You might find it easier to stay in a good mood if you leave your sister alone when she feels grumpy (脾气暴躁的). The next time she is in a bad mood, go to a quiet place in your house. Read, exercise, draw, listen to music — do something that makes you feel happy.

Your parents might have some good suggestions for you, too.

Dear Highlights,

I play soccer, but sometimes I play badly. How can I do better?

Jarom, Utah

To be good at anything, determination and practice are important. Listen closely to your coach, watch other players, then practice, practice, practice! Professional athletes continue to practice their sports each day, knowing that if they start to get lazy, they won’t keep or develop their skills.

In addition to practicing with teammates, you can work on drills on your own.

Learning more about the sport may help too. Your coach can likely direct you to some good resources on skills development.

Dear Highlights,

I was moved up a grade a few years ago. Now, almost everyone in my previous grade asks me why. It wouldn’t be a problem, except some boys ask over and over just to be annoying. What do I do?

Allison (by e-mail)

If you’re sure that they are trying to be annoying, you might respond with something humorous. For example, you could say something like “They told me that the lunch lines would be shorter.” Use the situation to turn annoying questions into something to laugh about.

1. What should Tessa do when her sister gets bad-tempered?

A. Accompany her. B. Change her mood.

C. Try some happy things. D. Leave her in a quiet place.

2. When talking about Jarom’s problem, Highlights especially stresses the importance of ______.

A. determination B. practice C. team spirit D. the coach’s help

3. What’s Allison’s problem?

A. She cannot get along well with her classmates.

B. Some boys in her class annoy her on purpose.

C. She is fed up with being asked the same question.

D. Her friends cannot accept that she moved up a grade.

4. What can we learn from the answer to Allison’s question?

A. Laughter is the best medicine.

B. He who laughs last laughs longest.

C. A sense of humor makes you easy-going.

D. Humor can ease the tension in many situations.

B

The secret of happiness could be as simple as remembering the good times and forgetting the regrets. People who look at the past through rose-colored glasses are happier than those who focus on negative past experiences and regrets, according to a new study published in the journal Personality and Individual Differences.

The study helps explain why personality has such a strong influence on a person’s happiness and the findings suggest that people with certain personality traits (特征) are happier than others because of the way they think about their past, present and future.

“We found that highly extraverted(外向型的) people are happier with their lives because they tend to hold a positive view of the past and are less likely to have negative thoughts and regrets. On the contrary, neurotic (神经质的) people are likely to have the exact opposite view of the past and are less happy as a result,” said Ryan Howell, assistant professor of psychology at San Francisco State University.

“This is good news because although it may be difficult to change your personality, you may be able to change your view of time and improve your happiness,” Howell said.

The authors suggest that enjoying happy memories or reframing (重新构筑) painful past experiences in a positive light could be effective ways for individuals to increase their life satisfaction.

“Personality traits influence how people look at the past, present and future and it is these different perspectives on time that drive a person’s happiness,” Howell said.

5. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means ______.

A. view the past in a very positive way B. look back with very beautiful glasses

C. have experienced a wonderful past D. love glasses with a rose color

6. According to Howell, if you want to improve your happiness, you can ______.

A. change your personality B. deny your painful past experiences

C. improve your life standard D. change your perspective on time

7. The text is probably taken from a ______.

A. research paper B. lifestyle magazine C. medical textbook D. fashion journal

C

David Beckham thinks he would be more useful as a player than a coach at the 2012 London Olympic Games when Britain fields (使参加比赛) its first Olympic football team since 1960.

The former England captain will be 37 when the Olympics come to London, but he says that fitness will not be an issue.

“There are several months to go and there are a lot of decisions to be made but I would love to be part of it,” Beckham told the BBC on Monday. “I’m sure I’d be better as a player than a coach so I’ll have to wait and see. I still feel as if I’m 21 when I’m playing. I still love the game like I did when I was 21. I still feel as fit.

“Everyone knows I have looked after myself eating-wise, fitness-wise. So I’m not in bad shape and I’ll continue to work hard and hopefully I can be part of it.”

Stuart Pearce, the manager of England under-21, the feeder team for the England national football team, is going to take charge of the team, with The Football Association administering the team and set to provide all the players.

The Scottish, Welsh and Northern Irish associations won’t be part of the team because of fears it would affect their independence and voting rights within FIFA.

Beckham was at the World Cup last year as a member of England coach Fabio Capello’s support staff (辅助人员) after being ruled out because of a serious injury.

While Beckham made the last of his 115 appearances for England in October 2009, he is still playing for the Los Angeles Galaxy.

But Beckham might not be with the Galaxy by the time the Olympics start in July 2012, with his five-year Major League Soccer contract coming to an end at the end of this year.

8. The underlined word “it” in Paragraph 4 probably refers to ______.

A. coaching staff at the World Cup B. England under-21

C. Britain’s Olympic football team D. the England national football team

A. Fabio Capello was once Beckham’s coach.

B. Beckham was ruled out by Fabio Capello.

A. Beckham hasn’t played for England for 2 years

B. Beckham will attend the 2012 London Games

C. 37-year old Beckham looks as young as 21

D. Beckham plays football every day to keep fit

Beijing has started a battle to get rid of “Chinglish” (Chinese English). The “Language mandarins” of Beijing have decided that Chinglish is a disease for China’s modernizing claim and must be obliterated before the city hosts the Olympic Games in 2008.

A road sign on the Avenue of Eternal Peace (Chang’an Street), for example, advised: “To Take Notice of Safe; The Slippery are Very Crafty,”a warning that the sidewalk was slippery. Another sign in a Beijing park reads: “Little grass is smiling slightly, please walk on sidewalk “.

Li Honghai, the city official in charge of the battle , said : “Linguistic perfection (语言美)is becoming increasingly important with the rise in the number of the foreigners flowing into the city .”

However, not everyone shares the disdain(蔑视)of the Beijing government for the mixed language. “The choice of words is pretty much. One can either choose the verbs, adverbs, nouns or whatever one likes,” explained one Hong Kong linguist on an Internet website.

So many examples exist that several Internet sites have been set up to collect Chinglish phrases. Many come from English instructions on packages such as a candle marked with “Keep this candle out of children” and a model boat—curiously named Posh Sailboat—which means “Please don’t place it in dusty play .”

If the battle against Chinglish is successful, Chinese will also turn their attention to the English—language versions of newspapers, which play an even more important role in teaching right English.

12. The underlined word “obliterated” refers to .

A. removed B. exploited C. translated D. beautified

13. From the passage, we know that .

A. everyone shares the disdain for the mixed language

B. all the people don’t share the disdain for the mixed language

C. Chinglish usually communicates in many cases

D. several Internet sites have been set up to clear the Chinglish phrases

14. We can infer that the English—language versions of newspapers .

A. should be in duty to teach normal English B. should report the battle above

C. should be paid more attention to D. should collect more Chinglish phrases

15. Which of the following signs is Chinglish?

Watch your step.

Slippery sidewalk.

Keep off the grass, please.

No smoking , please !

Tourists do not enter.

第二节 根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。

Are you simply moving through your day without fully living? I think many of us have done this. Everyone wants to fully live every day. 1 So I’ve decided to share with you some ways to help you enjoy every moment.

Sit in the morning. When you wake up, in the quiet of the morning, sit on the floor. I often use this opportunity to stretch (伸展). 2 I also just sit, and focus on my breathing going in and out.

Read in silence. Find a quiet time, and a quiet place, and read a good novel. Have no television or computers on nearby. And just put yourself in the world of the novel. It might seem difficult to let your mind move from the present into the time of the novel, but it’s a great practice in focus. 4

Yesterday I went to the park. I happened to see a touched event. At that time, some people were boating in the lake. A happy family was taking photos when suddenly the girl falls off the boat into the water. The girl could swim and was struggling, so her parents cried out, “Help! Help!” It was obviously that they could not swim, either. Hearing the cry, the young man immediately rushed to the lake.
