Food Around The World (世界上的食物)
一、教法建议
【抛砖引玉】
本单元同学们要学习如何用英语表达各种各样的食物名称以及有关“就餐”的日常用语。通过课文阅读“Food Around the World”，了解玉米这种植物是如何传到中国的。中国的许多果子又是如何被引进到世界的其它国度的。下面是一篇有关玉米 （corn）的趣味短文，请你阅读后看看玉米都有那些妙用。
Corn is the American name for maize . America is the biggest producer of corn in the world .
“Sweet corn”is the sweetest corn . Many people like to eat sweet corn on on the cob . Popcorn is a highly popular snack food in America . It is sold at the entrance of every cinema .
There are two expressions that include the word “corn”. A selfish person has little sense of shame about his selfishness as he thinks other people are selfish , too . We call this “measuring another\s corn by one\s own bushel ”.
An honest person admits the corn frankly if he loses in a game or debate . We think this is a gentlemanly way of talking one\s own defeat . (corn 是美语对玉米的叫法。美国是世界上最大的生产国。“甜玉米”是最甜的玉米。许多人喜欢吃甜玉米棒子。爆玉米花在美国是很受欢迎的零食。每家电影院的入口处都能买到它。有两个包含 corn 字的习语。自私的人对自己的自私心缺乏羞愧感，因为他认为别人也是自私的。我们就把这个叫做“以自己的标准衡量他人，即以己度人。一个诚实的人，如果比赛或者辩论失败，就坦诚地认输。我们认为，这样接受失败是有风度的。”)
另外，我们在本单元向大家提供一篇难得的快速提高高考听力技巧的文章和一篇新教材中的习语分类欣赏（上）的文章，相信它们一定会让你大饱眼福。
