我让学生运用“资源导向式思维”模式,从文本资源中按照“举行”“纪念”的语义搜索相关的语义链。
任务1:阅读文段,搜索与“举行”有关的词句,定位与其语义相关的词语,并加以对比分析。
【成果展示】学生通过寻读,寻找到10个与“举行”有关的词句。

【导学】提取词汇语义链,分析和对比“举行”在具体句子中的语义、结构和表达方式。在句子中,除hold有“举行”的含义外,其余的take place、celebrate、have、there be、happen等词语与“举行”含义似乎毫不相干。而在语境中,它们的确贴切地表达了“举行”的含义。因此,在语言学习中,经常关注英语语句的表达方式和用词特点,就能积累表达思想和观念时所需要的丰富词句。
任务2:阅读文段,搜索与“纪念”有关的词句,定位与其语义相关的词语,并加以对比分析。
【成果展示】学生通过寻读,围绕“纪念”在语篇中寻找与其相关的语句,训练“资源导向式思维”。
