The topic of this unit is Manners, Customs and Cultures and this section is titled Reflections of an Exchange Teacher. It is helpful for the students to improve their ability of getting the main idea and some useful information from long stories.This section is looking at cultural differences from a Westerners point of view, so it also can help them to deepen their understanding of cultural difference and might help the students to think about Chinese language, customs, traditions and practices in comparison with those in the Englishspeaking countries.In fact, I consider this series of units on culture topic almost in every module are the most important for our students English study. They can help the students believe that only by studying the culture can we learn a foreign language really well. Teaching aims and demands1.

They have learned attributive clauses and appositive clauses, but maybe still mix them up.Part 3. Teaching Methods, Studying Ways and AidsHigh School English Teaching Syllabuses and High School English Curriculum Standards demand the students should be able to:1. understand biography, story, narrative and so on with less than 3% new words in it at the speed of 70-80 words per minute.2. grasp the main idea, main facts, main clues and the order of time and space with basic reading skills.3. figure out the writers attitude and opinionand so on.So, according to the theory of “making the students the real masters in class while the teacher himself acts as the director”, I will follow the “double activities teaching method” and “question-and-answer activity teaching method” using different levels of exercises to help them to be a logical thinker.As students differ, I will choose right questions for right students to answer in class. In this way, students of different level will be respected and they also can gain self confidence, which will arouse their enthusiasm.Teaching aids: 1. multimedia 2. a tape recorder 3. blackboard Part4.
