内容大纲
本教材以主题为线索,以内容为依托,选材多元化,涉及教育、艺术、文化、科学等方面的内容,旨在通过语言和内容的融合学习,帮助学习者理解语言的思想内涵和文化积淀,在语言习得的同时,潜移默化地拓展学习者的跨学科视野,培养人文情怀和科学素养。
每个单元通过口语练习、批判性阅读、写作练习三大板块重点培养学习者的语言应用能力、思辨能力和自主学习能力。通过有认知挑战的口语话题和项目研究引导学习者学会从多渠道获取信息,对信息进行批判性思考和加工,通过分析、推理等思辨技能的综合运用解决实际问题。每个单元的两篇阅读文章或观点对立或内容互补,以此拓展学习者的创新思维,进而提升学习者思维的广度与深度。写作部分既重视基础写作方法和技巧训练,又充分满足学习者提高学术英语写作能力的需求,通过循序渐进地教学指导,有序而高效地提高学习者的思辨能力和写作水平。 -
