（校园网 何滟秋）On the afternoon of March 28^th in 2018, all English teachers from Grade 8 came to the lecture theatre to join the training about listening and reading for the senior high school entrance examination. Keynote speakers are Mr. Guo Yongtian and Miss Li Wenchun.

2018年3月28日下午，我校初二英语组全体成员来到阶梯教室就中考听力和阅读专题进行培训。本次培训主讲人是郭永田老师和李文纯老师。

Mr. Guo shared his research on listening test of the Senior High School Entrance Examination with all of us. He analyzed every single part of the listening test.

郭永田老师带着精心研究的成果，向大家分享了新中考中听力试题的特点。郭老师详细地就每部分的试题特点做了分析。

Listening test is not too difficult and usually easy for students to get full grades. The test starts with a greeting which makes students feel friendly and make it easy for them to begin the important exam. The conversations are all different from each other and the options are different, too. Wh-questions are always seen in both listening material and test questions. The conversations nowadays get more and more smooth and natural.

中考的听力测试在整张试卷中属于低难度试题。整个测试通常以一个问候开始，容易让学生感到亲切，也便于他们迅速进入考试状态。听力材料中所涉情景无雷同，选项也基本没有重复。对话和试题中常会使用what，how，when，who，why等常见疑问词。特殊疑问句是所考察的主要语法项目。近年来中考对话考题都更注重语言在场景中的交流，对话更自然。

At the end of the speech, Mr. Guo offered some practical advice for daily English teaching. For example, English teachers should pay more attention to teaching students some listening skills. Students need to learn how to predict before listening, how to delete totally wrong options and how to grasp the main and key information, especially how to take notes while listening.

在演讲的最后，郭老师还给了大家很多适用于平时教学中使用的建议。例如，在日常教学中，要注重培养学生的听力技巧。听前学会预测，排除干扰项，听众能够运用策略捕捉题目或材料中的关键信息。尤其重要的是学会记录笔记，并推测听力材料可能的意向。

What’s more, English teachers can sometimes create some kinds of situations that are benefit for students to learn English and to improve their interests for English. For example, there can be some activities like dubbing for English films, singing English songs and so on. In these ways, students’ passion towards English study can be aroused.

并且，老师可以为学生创设有利的语言环境。比如开展英语趣配音，英语歌曲比赛，歌曲分享等活动，在愉快轻松的氛围中培养英语兴趣。

After listening to his speech, everyone benefited a lot. We all realized that it is very important and necessary to teach students pronounce and read correctly. Some pronouncing skills like stress should also be emphasized in English class. At the same time, teachers can inspire students to imitate the listening material so that they can pronounce more natively.

通过这次学习，每个人都受益匪浅。我们也意识到平时的教学中，指导学生掌握正确的语音、语调及朗读技巧尤其重要。特别是单词的重读、连读、弱读、同化等语音知识也应该得到重视。同时，还可以鼓励学生模仿听力材料中的标准化发音培养语感，清楚听力过程中的语音障碍。

Then Miss Li shared her last training about the Senior High School Entrance Examination with us. She emphasized the reading class by Miss Liu Jinjing and the explanation of the Senior High School Entrance Examination of 2018 by Mr. Chen Chunhui. The reading class, based on the teaching method of students’ mutual help and study, included self-study, sharing and feedback, breakthrough of difficulties, development and creativity.

接下来李文纯老师和我们分享了她去参加培训的学习内容，重点展示了重庆八中刘金菁老师的一堂阅读复习课和重庆市教研员陈春晖老师就2018年中考考试的说明。阅读复习课主要利用了“生生互助”“生生互学”的教学方法。课程内容包括自主学习，分享反馈，难点突破，拓展运用，创新升华五个部分。

At last, Miss Li conveyed the explanation of the Senior High School Entrance Examination of 2018 by Mr. Chen Chunhui, including changes about scores, vocabulary and grammar, which helps us know the direction of the Senior High School Entrance Examination of 2018.

最后，李文纯老师向我们传达了陈春晖老师关于2018年中考考试说明，包括分值、词汇和语法部分的变化。这使所有老师明确了2018年中考方向。

After the training, Miss Zhang Shanwen concluded and highly praised the progress of young teachers in our Grade. In addition, based on the new trend of English teaching in Chongqing, she assigned lesson preparation in order to build efficient classes. Young teachers benefited a lot and promised to be creative and united in the future teaching.

培训结束后，张善文老师对今天两位老师精心准备的分享内容进行了总结，并对我组青年教师的成长给予了肯定，又根据重庆市英语教学的新趋势进行了备课组任务部署进而打造高效英语课堂。年轻老师获益匪浅，表示要在今后的教学中多创新，团结互助，砥砺前行！
