分析

教材分析：本模块以人类探索宇宙的行为为背景引入现在完成时的用法,通过人类对宇宙太空所做努力的描述强化现在完成

时的表意功能,开展听说读写教学活动。教学内容为语法的

学习和使用提供了必要的感性材料。本模块的中心话题是介

绍航天知识,着重介绍了火星探索计划以及宇宙中太阳系的

部分知识。要求学生能够了解一点航天知识,学会利用现在

完成时描述人类已经实施的太空探索计划。

学情分析：人类探索宇宙,是否真的存在外星人,太空旅行……这些一直都是学生们非常感兴趣的话题,学生会觉得有话可

说。但是在讨论这一话题时将涉及较多的专有名词,学生掌

握的难度较大。所以如果教材内容处理不当,会导致学生有

话想说,却无法用英语来表达的尴尬场面。因此在具体安排

教学内容时,应注意适当降低难度与要求,通过开展生动骨

趣的活动将航天知识深入浅出的传授给学生。在前一个模块“ Experiences”的学习中,学生初步掌握了利用现在完成时态谈论旅游、看电影、看书等经历,学习了现在完成时的一般疑问句及肯定、否定的回答方法。在本模块中,学生将继续学习yet, already,just等词在现在完成时态中的用法及 have been to与 have gone to之间的区别。
