《儿子的创意》阅读附答案

《儿子的创意》阅读附答案 阅读文段，回答下面问题（16分） 儿子的创意毕淑敏 有一天，儿子突然说：“我准备到日本旅游一次。”因为他经常异想天开，我置之不理。 他说：“咦，你为什么不表态?难道不觉得我很勇敢吗?”我说：“是啊是啊，很勇敢。可世上有些事并不单是勇敢就够用。比如这件事吧，还得有钱。” 他很郑重地说：“这上面写着，举办一个有关宗教博物馆建筑的创意征文比赛。金牌获得者，免费到日本观光旅游。”说着，把一本海外刊物递给我。我看也不看地说：“关于宗教，你懂得多少?关于建筑，你懂得多少?金牌银牌历来都只有一块，多么激烈的争夺。你还是好好做功课吧。” 他毫不气馁地说：“可是我有创意啊。比如这个博物馆里可以点燃藏香，给人一种浓郁的宗教气氛；比如这个博物馆里可以卖斋饭，让参观的人色香味立体地感受宗教。比如……”我打断他说：“别比如了，人家征的是建筑创意，要像悉尼的贝壳状大歌剧院，有独特的风格。我记得你小时候连积木都搭不好，还侈谈什么建筑!” 十几岁的儿子好脾气，不理睬我的挖苦，自语道：“在地面挖一个巨大的深坑，就要100米吧，然后把这个博物馆盖在地下……” 我说：“噢，那不成了地下宫殿?”儿子不理我，遐想着说：“博物馆和大地粗糙的岩石泥土间要留有空隙，再用透明的建筑材料砌外墙，这样参观的人们时时刻刻会感到土地的存在，产生一种神秘感。从底下向阳光明媚的地面攀升，会有人的自豪感。地面部分设计成螺旋状的飞梯，象征着人类将向宇宙探索……”。他在空中．比画了一个上大下小的图形。 我不客气地打断他：“挖到地下那么深的地方，会有矿泉水涌出来。你想过没有?再说什么样的建筑材料，可以长久地保持你所要求的透明度?还有你设计的飞梯，空中螺旋状，空中的螺旋状，多危险!还有……”儿子摆摆手说：“妈妈，您说的问题都是问题。不过那是工程师需要解决的问题，不关我的创意。妈妈，您知道什么是创意吗?那就是最富于创造性的意见啊!”我叹了一口气说：“好了，随你瞎想了。不过我要提醒你一句，对于一个学生来说，我以为最好的创意莫过于一个好成绩了。” 儿子在电脑上完成了他的创意。 很长时间过去了，在我们几乎将这件事淡忘的时候，儿子收到了一个那家征丈举办部门寄来的，写着他的名字并称他为“先生”的大信封。我们拆开信，里面是一张请柬，邀请儿子到海外参加发奖仪式。儿子苦恼地说：“现在赶去也来不及了。再说他们也没说清我是不是获奖者。” 当我们把这件事完全忘记的时候，接到了征文举办部门的第二封信。信中说，我的儿子没能去拳加那天隆重的发奖仪式，他们深感遗憾。儿子得了创意银牌奖，奖牌及奖金他们设法转来。 儿子放学回来，还没有摘书包，我就把信给他。他看了一眼，然后淡淡地说：“银牌啊?我想我是该得金牌的。一定是他们觉得我年岁小，一个人到日本去不方便，商量了一下就说，算了，给他个银牌吧”

I like music that I can dance to . I love singers who can write their own music.” 2）能够自如地谈论自己所喜欢的音乐和音乐家。 3、情感目标： 通过学生谈论对音乐和音乐家的好恶，从而使学生学会欣赏音乐的美。 三）重点和难点： 1、重点 1）本节课的教学重点是学会并掌握先行词为物或者人时，引导词“that ,who ,which”的使用方法。 2）“prefer …to…”的用法

九年级英语人教版unit 9 说课稿 各位评委老师，大家好！ 今天我说课的题目是初中英语九年级“unit 10 by the time i got outside,the bus had already left”，整个说课我将分五部分进行讲述，即教材分析、教法、学法、教学程序、板书设计。 一、说教材 本单元主要围绕“april fool’s day”为话题，谈论发生在过去的事情，培养学生对发生的事情进行客观评价的能力，并学习自主解决问题的能力;通过讨论“发生在过去的事情”这个话题，学习过去完成时的构成和基本用法以及现在完成时和过去完成时的区别。而本课是本单元的第一课，初步接触过去完成时，并且过去完成时是英语中非常重要的一种时态，占据着相当重要的位置。 根据英语教学大纲的要求，我确定以下教学目标： teaching aims: knowledge objects（:知识目标） 1 new words and phrases:by the time,gotten,oversleep,got outside,start doing.; 2 target language: by the time i got outside,the bus had already left. by the time she got up,her brother had already gone into the bathroom. ability objects:（能力目标） 1 train the students’listening and speaking skills with the target language 2 train the students to narrate the past events with the past perfect tense 3 train the students’writing skills with target language moral objects:（道德目标） it’s a good habit to go to bed early in the evening and get up early in the morning.so you’ll never be in a hurry in the morning.also the whole day’s work depends on the plan in the morning. teaching key points（教学重点） 1 master the words：by the time,oversleep 2 master the target language by the time i got outside,the bus had already left. by the time she got up,her brother had already gone into the bathroom teaching difficult points（教学难点） 1 train the students to understand the listening material. 2 train the students to narrate past events with the past perfect tense 二、说教法 1．英语学习的目的重在更好地运用语言于实际的交流之中，单调地重复课文内容或机械地操练吸引不了我们的学生。为达到交流的目的，我采用情境教学法、直观教学法，
