3、相關(guān)活動做思路鋪地。學(xué)情分析：盡管書信、電子郵件等應(yīng)用文體一直是高考寫作任務(wù)的考查重點，但學(xué)生在日常學(xué)習(xí)生活中，使用電子郵件的真實場景并不多，因此，常會出現(xiàn)套用書信模板寫不同郵件等刻板交際現(xiàn)象，影響個人語言特點的表達。同時，學(xué)生對文化亮點可能缺乏關(guān)注或理解片面，推薦理由與介紹不夠具體?；谝陨戏治?，教師嘗試將從推薦內(nèi)容、情感表達、標點符號等方面細致處理課文文本，培養(yǎng)學(xué)生自主閱讀能力、自主探究意識，以及批判性思維能力。在深度分析文本并學(xué)習(xí)推薦文化亮點的介紹方法之后，教師將手把手講解寫郵件的基本文體特點和方法，并引導(dǎo)學(xué)生回復(fù)郵件，以此加強學(xué)生的寫作能力，提升學(xué)生的表達信心；同時，從不同角度地看待同

4、一事物或體驗，引導(dǎo)學(xué)生對本國或本土優(yōu)秀文化的認同與自信。教學(xué)目標：經(jīng)過本課學(xué)習(xí)，學(xué)生能夠： 獲取郵件中介紹美國紐約曼哈頓百老匯文化區(qū)等具體信息，初步理解文化亮點的意義； 復(fù)習(xí)與關(guān)注電子郵件的基本文體特點，體會運用不同方法表達個人喜好及推薦理由； 通過對不同區(qū)域的文化亮點的關(guān)注與認同，合理推薦具有中國文化亮點的城市以及具備本土特色的地區(qū)，增強民族文化自信，提升語言綜合運用能力以及批判性思維能力。教學(xué)重點和難點： 學(xué)生能夠掌握寫電子郵件的方法，通過對本國或本土文化亮點的關(guān)注與認同，增強民族文化自信，提升語言綜合運用能力與批判性思維能力；（教學(xué)重點） 學(xué)生能夠從文化亮點的意義出發(fā)，合理篩選具有本國或
