9、hat you will or will not_. Making requests will go a long way to eliminating the “tolerations” in your life.

26、, things will surely be different.HELP!Dear Rose, Glad to hear from you!_Yours sincerelyEditor四、教学反思：该课授课对象是普通中学的高三文科班，虽然是高三，但是学生的认知水平还是有一定局限。再者，此文篇幅较长，生词量较大，语言非常地道，因此，学生理解起来存在一定困难。这就需要教室去做更多的铺垫。该篇文章是典型的议论文，结构总分总，所以非常适合学生模仿此文章的格式写一篇简单的议论文，且文章告诉学生一些具体解决问题的建议，因此笔者在最后设计了一个问题情境，提出问题，让学生参考文章内容去解决问题，并且模仿文章议论文结构去写一篇议论文，真正达到了读写相扣，使学生有话可说，有框架可参考，最后能比较快的写好英语作文。.高考资源网w。w-w*k&s%5￥u高考资源网w。w-w*k&s%5￥u 版权所有高考资源网
