Unit 5　Canada—“The True North” Period 4　Using language: Listening and talking 整体设计 教材分析 This is the fourth teaching period of this unit. As usual, the teacher will first get students to review what they learned in the last period, and then lead in the new lesson. We will focus on training students’ listening ability in this period. The listening passage introduces information about the cultural and racial composition of Canada. Canada is one of the few countries that have an official multicultural policy. The population is changing rapidly and immigrants from China are among the most numerous recently. Make sure students go through the exercises before they listen to the tape. This is to sharpen their attention. It will also help them get the gist of the listening text. The teaching procedures may be as follows: First, let students think about and discuss what they know about Canada’s population and the fact that it is a country of immigrants. Second, go through the incomplete sentences in Exercise 2 and guess what the topic of the listening text is. Play the tape for students to listen to and decide whether their guessing is right. Third, ask them to listen again for them to do Exercise 2. Fourth, let them listen a third time to check their answers. While they are listening, the teacher should pause and repeat the key sentences to help students understand. When checking the answers, explain some difficult listening points if necessary. In the end, show them the listening text and let them read and retell it. This step can help students understand and grasp the listening material far further. Next, students will listen to a report which Li Daiyu and Liu Qian were asked to give telling their new Canadian friends about China. The purpose of this listening passage is to allow students to make a comparison between Canada and China in terms of geography and natural features. The teacher can let students read the directions and go through the exercises before listening.
