《Unit 2 English around the world》试讲逐字稿
Good morning, Judges!
I am Candidate No. 1, applying for the Senior High School English Teaching position. It’s truly an honor to be here. Now, let me begin my presentation.
Leading in
Teacher: Good morning, boys and girls! It’s great to see you all today. Did you watch any Olympic events last night?
Students: Yes!
Teacher: Nice! What sport did you see? A football match, perhaps?
Students: Yes!
Teacher: Who won the match in the end? The Spanish team? Did you enjoy it?
Students: It was awesome!
Teacher: Fantastic! The Olympic Games never fail to excite us, do they?
Pre-reading
Teacher: Let’s look at some pictures together. Okay? Here’s the first one on the screen. What do you see?
Students: It’s obvious—they’re playing football!
Teacher: Exactly! But do you know another word for "football"? How about you, the boy by the window?
Student: Soccer.
Teacher: Correct! We can also call it soccer. Now, here’s the next picture. What’s this? It’s simple, right? We usually call it a flat. Any guesses about my next question? You, the girl at the back, please.
Student: A flat is also known as an apartment.
Teacher: Excellent! Many English words have different expressions that are all correct in speaking and writing. But why do these differences exist? Any ideas? How about you, the boy with the black glasses?
Student: Because there’s more than one type of English in the world—like British English and American English.
Teacher: Brilliant! I knew you’d get it. That’s why our topic today is "The Road to Modern English."
While-reading
Teacher: First, I’ll play a recording for you. While listening, please note down the timeline of English development and any new words you hear. Clear? Let’s start.
(Recording plays)
Teacher: Time’s up! That’s the end of the recording. Who’d like to share their timeline of English development? Serena, go ahead.
Serena: (Shares her timeline)
Teacher: Are you sure? I’ll give you one more minute to double-check. Ready? What’s your updated answer?
Serena: (Revises her answer)
Teacher: Great! There was just a tiny error, but no worries. Now, did you spot any new words in the text?
Students: Yes! We found subway, elevator, petrol, gas, official, voyage, conquer, and native.
Teacher: Perfect! You can check the translations I’ve provided to help you understand them better. Now, please read the passage again and fill in the blanks on page 11. I’ll give you 8 minutes to complete it.
(Students work on the task)
Teacher: Alright, let’s pause there. Who wants to share their answers? John, please come up and write them on the board.
(John writes his answers)
Teacher: Well done! But I see one small mistake. Can anyone help him out? Lim, your turn.
(Lim corrects the error)
Teacher: Spot on! Now, let’s dive deeper. Read the passage carefully and answer these three questions in your own words:
What is the history of English development?
How does ancient English differ from modern English?
What are the differences between British English and American English?
Understood? Let’s read it once more.
(Students read)
Teacher: Who’d like to tackle the first question? Lilei, go for it.
Lilei: (Answers the question)
Teacher: Awesome! Your spoken English is impressive. Next, the second question—Elizabeth, please.
Elizabeth: (Answers the question)
Teacher: Fantastic work! And for the final question, the girl next to Elizabeth, please.
Student: (Answers the question)
Teacher: Terrific! You’ve all done wonderfully.
Post-reading
Teacher: There are some exercises on page 11. Could you work on them with a partner?
(Students collaborate)
Teacher: Great job! We’ve highlighted a few key sentences, like: "English is a language spoken all around the world" and "More than 42 countries have a majority of English speakers."
Summary
Teacher: Alright, everyone! We’ve covered a lot today. Who can sum up what we’ve learned? Lucy, please.
Lucy: We learned new words and sentences, and that English is spoken globally.
Teacher: Spot on! But have you thought about why that is?
Homework
Teacher: After class, ponder that question. The keywords and sentences we discussed will be useful, so try to memorize them. Also, please write a short story about your own English learning experience before our next lesson. That’s all for today!
