Do you think it matters what kind of English you learn? Why?Possible answer:I dont think so. Here are the reasons: Native speakers from different parts of the world have no difficulty in understanding each other despite the fact that they speak a bit differently. It is necessary for us to learn the narrow difference between different kinds of English if we hope to communicate fluently with native speakers of English from all over the world. Different kinds of English have the same language core. If you have got a good command of one kind, you will almost have no difficulty understanding another kind of English.(Any persuasive and supporting reason the students give can be accepted.)2) Why do you think people all over the world want to learn English?Possible answer:The reasons why people all over the world want to learn English: With economy globalization, English has become the best bridge to serve the purpose of people all over the world communicating with one another. However, like all major languages in the world, English is always changing. In order to adjust to native speakers from different parts of the world, it is a must for people all over the world to learn English, whether in English speaking countries or in non-English speaking countries. Also, people from different parts of the world speak English with various accent and dialects, and people have to learn about the difference between different kinds of English in order to avoid misunderstanding while communicating.课后反思：本课是阅读课。英语阅读教学是高中教学的重中之重。许多英语教师对阅读训练也给予了足够的重视，但是在训练方式上却存在较多的问题。多数教师过分注重语法结构的分析和句子的机械翻译而忽视技巧培养。只有在阅读教学中教给学生一些学习策略，培养阅读技巧，才能让学生有可能通过课外自学来扩大知识的摄取量，从而弥补课堂英语阅读教学的不足。由于时间仓促以及学生口语水平的局限，本课时在学生让学生讨论的环节上，气氛不够热烈，讨论时间不足，今后应尽量鼓励学生多开口说英语，以弥补这方面的缺陷。Period 3: Reading (Language points)Aimto master some words and phrases1. include v.a) containeg.
