Several Ss are invited to come up with “proper ways of eating spaghetti” and demonstrate to the class, using the fork.c) T dictates the following passage t
7、o Ss (pre-teach some words like “poke”, “scoop”, “prong”, “twirl” if necessary):i. Hold the fork in your hand as if to poke the spaghetti.ii.

9、ping movement, gather up the roll around the prongs and place it in your mouth.viii. Gently gather up any stray spaghetti ends that dont make it all the way into your mouth.d) T asks one S to come up and demonstrate the right way of eating spaghetti. 3) T asks Ss the following questions:(8 minutes)_
10、Would you enjoy writing “The Art of Eating Spaghetti”? Why or why not?_Why did Russell Baker enjoy writing “The Art of Eating Spaghetti”? (Hint: Para.4)_Look at the title of Text A, then find out in which paragraph a similar phrase appears. Read that paragraph carefully and explain in your own words
11、 what the author means by saying “write for myself”. (Hint: Para.5)4. While reading tasks1. Grasping the structure of the text: (15 minutes)1) Ss circle all the time words, phrases in Text A (They include: since my childhood in Belleville, until my third year in high school, until then, when our cla
12、ss was assigned to Mr. Fleagle for third-year English, late in the year, until the night before the essay was due, when I finished, next morning, two days passed, when I saw him lift my paper his desk when Mr. Fleagle finished). When they finish, T asks several Ss to read aloud what they have circle
13、d.2) T draws Ss attention to Organization Exercise 2 , reads its instructions, and asks them these two questions:_Refer to the time words/phrases/clauses you have just circled and tell from which point on Baker starts talking about his new experience. (Hint: the paragraph containing “later in the ye
14、ar”)_Starting from which paragraph does Baker stop writing about his new experience? (hint: the paragraph containing “when I finished” and “next morning”3) In this way Ss will be able to divide the text into 3 parts and sum up the main ideas.4) Several Ss report the main ideas they have summed up to
15、 the class.2. Cultural background-T explains the U.S. grade school system and how school teachers are dressed. (see Cultural Notes) (3 minutes)3. T explains language points and gives Ss practice. (see Language Study) (60 minutes)4. Grammatical structures. (25 minutes)1) T asks Ss to form pairs and a
16、sk each other questions based on Para. 2 using the structure “sb./ sth. is said/believed/reported to do/be”. T may offer the following model: _What kind of person is Mr. Fleagle?_He was said/reported/believed to be very formal, rigid and hopelessly out-of-date.Afterwards, a pair or two may repeat th
17、eir questions and answers to the class. 2) Ss do Structure Exercise 2 in the textbook.5. T draws Ss attention to Writing strategy in Theme-related Language Learning Tasks, especially the part about details. (also see Text Analysis) T then asks the following questions:_In Part 1, what details are sel
18、ected to show “I d been bored with everything associated with English courses”?_In Part 1, what details are given to show that Mr. Fleagle was dull and rigid?_In Part 2, which sentences show that at first Baker was unwilling to write the essay?_In Part 3, the author didnt tell us directly that his e
19、ssay was very good. By which sentences did he manage to give us the impression that his essay was very good? (12 minutes)6. Synonymous words or phrases in this text (see Text Analysis):1) T chooses one words from each group of synonyms listed in Text Analysis, and asks Ss to scan for respective syno
20、nyms. If Ss findings are inconclusive, T may reveal those they have neglected.2) T may further provoke Ss thinking by this question: Why does Russell Baker employ all these synonymous words and phrases? (15 minutes)7. When T and Ss come to the sentence “In the eleventh grade, at the eleventh hour as
21、 it were, I had discovered a calling.” In Para. 9, T may ask Ss to recall a similar sentence they have read. (Para.1, “The idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my childhood in Belleville, but it wasnt until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold.”) By this T
22、 will show Ss the importance of coherence in writing. (5 minutes)5. Exercises1. Think alone: According to Mr. Fleagle, what is the very essence of the essay? (5 minutes)Then T invites several Ss to give their opinions. T may sum up by this sentence-The essence of good essay is to write what one enjo
23、ys writing about.2. T checks if Ss have done the rest of the after-text exercises in their spare time, and discusses some common errors that crop up. (10 minutes)3. T checks on Ss home reading (Text B). (3 minutes)4. Ss do Part Iv: Theme-related Language Learning Tasks in class. (1 period)5. T asks
24、Ss to prepare the next unit:1) Do the pre-reading task;2) Preview Text A. (2 minutes)6. Confusable phrases.Severe, stern & strictSevere: 作“严厉”解时,可以来形容人(severe father),人的面貌(severe look 严厉的神色),人的态度(the teacher is severe with his students.教师对学生很严厉。Stern 与severe相近,但用途比较窄,一般用于人的容貌或态度。例如 a severe father和
25、a stern father都可以用,但含义稍有有同:a severe father指对于子女有严厉的要求,积极的意义较多;a stern father则指对子女不含温情,要他们服从,消极的意味较多。Strict 相当于汉语的“严格的”,须先假定有一种客观的标准(如规章、纪律、定义、真理等)。例如:The teacher is strict with his students. There is a strict regulation against smoking in the auditorium.6. Writing StrategyHow to write a narrative (记
26、叙文) (1)The essay are going to write is, in a sense, an account of what once happened to you in your life. Writings of this kind usually take the form of narration. When planning a narrative, you should consider the following points:l ContextWhen, where, and to whom the action of a narrative happened
27、 is often made clear at the beginning of the narrative. This will provide the reader with a context so that he may have no difficulty in understanding the whole story.l Selection of Details A narrative comprises details. It is important to remember only those details that help bring out the main ide
28、a of the narrative are useful and effective. When selecting details, therefore, you should keep in mind your purpose in writing the narrative.Homework writing: My favorite teacherII. Text AnalysisRussell Baker is very good at selecting details (see Part Iv Writing Strategy) to prove his point. For e
29、xample, in Para. 2 he creates an unfavorable image of Mr. Fleagle by describing his “formal, rigid and hopelessly out-of-date” eyeglasses, hairstyle, clothes, jaw, nose, and manner of speaking.Whats more, Russell Baker employs repetition not only to make it easy for readers to follow what he is sayi
30、ng, but also to impress them more deeply. For example, in Para. 2, there are 9 prims or primlys in as few as 3 sentences! Thus readers will have in their mind a vivid picture of what Mr. Fleagle looked like. Another example of such repetition can be found in Para. 5. Count how many I wanteds there a
31、re in this paragraph (Therere 5!). They help to emphasize Russell Bakers strong desire to write for himself. On the other hand, where this stylistic device is not justified, Baker is also expert in avoiding repetition by employing synonymous words and phrases. Here are some examples:a. dull, lifeles
32、s, cheerless, tedious b. turn out, write, compose, put downc. anticipate, prepare for d. formal, rigid, prim, correct, proper, respectable e. vivid memories of sth. come flooding back to sb., sth. reawakes in ones mind, sb. Recalls sth.f. recapture, relive g. pleasure, delight, happiness h. contempt
33、, ridicule i. topic, title III. Cultural Notes Grade schools in the U.S.: It is necessary to have some knowledge of grade schools in the U.S. because Ss have to realize that “the third year in high school” (Para.1) equals “the eleventh grade” (Para.9). U.S. students generally go through elementary s
34、chools (kindergarten to 5th or 6th .grade), middle schools (grades 6-8) or junior high schools (grades 7-9), and high schools (grades 9-12 or 10-12).1. What American teachers wear in school: Nowadays, people in the U.S. love to dress casually. Even among those companies with a rigid dress code some
35、now allow employees not to wear suits on Fridays. U.S. teachers wear fairly formal clothes to school, but not necessarily suits and ties. Bow ties are considered even more old-fashioned than ties.2. Spaghetti and the proper way of eating it: Spaghetti is the Italian-style thin noodle, cooked by boil
36、ing and served with sauce. Usually you would put a fork into a plate of spaghetti, turn the fork several times so that spaghetti will wind around the fork, then place the fork into you mouth. Its impolite to suck.IV. Language Study 1. The idea of becoming a writer had come to me off and on since my
37、childhood in Belleville, but it wasnt until my third year in high school that the possibility took hold.: Ever since I was a child in Belleville, I had thought of becoming a writer from time to time, but I didnt make up my mind until I was in the eleventh grade.off and on (or on and off): from time
38、to time, now and again, irregularlyE.g. It has been raining on and off for a week. Thats why the clothes feel damp. As her patient slept soundly during the night, Nurse Betty was able to doze off and on in a bedside chair.Possibility: state of being possible; (degree of) likelihood (usu. Followed by
39、 that-clause or of)E.g. Is there any possibility of life on Mars? They havent arrived. There is a possibility that have taken the wrong road.Take hold: become establishedE.g. The idea of one child only has taken hold in many Chinese families. Old habits die hard. Thats why you should stop smoking be
40、fore the habit takes hold.2. Until then Id been bored by everything associated with English courses.: Up to then I had lost interest in things related to English courses.Bore: make (sb .) feel tired and lose interestE.g.: The speaker went on and on, and the audience grew bored by his speech. Tom Saw
41、yer grew bored with painting the garden fence, so he thought of a way to make others paint for him.Associate (with): join or connect together; connect or bring in the mindE.g.: We associate Egypt with pyramids.I cant associate this gentle young woman with the radical political essays she has written
42、.Jim wished to forget everything associated with his former life.3. I hated the assignments to turn out long, lifeless paragraphs that were agony for teachers to read and for me to write.: I found it painful to write long, boring essays as required by teachers; neither did teachers enjoy what wrote.
43、Turn out: produceE.g.: New computers are soon outdated since newer models are turned out constantly. American film studios turn out hundreds of films every year.4. When our class was assigned to Mr. Fleagle for third-year English I anticipated another cheerless year in that most tedious of subjects.
44、: When it was decided that Mr. Fleagle would teach us English during my third year in high school, I expected the English course to be as boring as before.Anticipate: expect (usu. Followed by gerund or that-clause)E.g.: The police had anticipated from the soccer fans and were at the ground in large
45、numbers. They anticipate that deaths from AIDS will have doubled by 2002. We anticipate running into problems in carrying out the medical welfare reform. 5. tedious: boring and lasting for a long time E.g.: The movie was so tedious that many viewers left before it was over. Laura found George to be
46、tedious and decided not to see him any more. 6. reputation: (an) opinion (about sb. Or sth.) held by others E.g.: Premier Zhu Rongji has a high reputation as a statesman in the world. Jim Kerry has quite a reputation for being comic.7. inspire: fill (sb.) with confidence, eagerness, etc.E.g.: Martin
47、 Luther King, Jr.s speeches inspired people to fight for equal treatment of African Americans,The last leaf on the tree that never fell off inspired the dying patient with the will to live on.8. rigid: (often disapproving) fixed in behavior; based on correct or accepted rulesE.g.: If he had been a l
48、ittle less rigid about things, his daughter would not have left home at such a young age.The rigid headmaster would button up his clothes even on the hottest days,9. out of date: old-fashionedE.g.: New words are constantly added to our vocabulary while some old words go our of date.Although her clothes were out of date, the old woman appeared clean and dignified.10. severe: 1) completely plainE.g.: The widow wore a severe black dress to her husbands funeral.
