13、asking certain questions.For example,for each of the three texts above,we can ask these questions:Text 1:What is a pet?What are pets for?Why do people love pets?Are there any problems with pets?Text 2:What is a jungle?Where can you find jungles?What do you think has happened to the jungles?Text 3:Wh

19、 is that the readers has something in his mind and he should ignore the irrelevant parts when reading.Besides,we can also ask students to scan for vocabulary which usually have certain semantic connections with the theme.Though teachers pre-teaching,students will facilitate the reading tasks that fo

29、urther oral and/or written language practice.第27页/共42页Reading comprehension questionOne of the most frequently used methods in teaching reading is asking students to answer comprehension questions.Nuttal suggests that we can classify questions according to the kind of information that they require s

30、tudents to get from the texts,or the kind of thinking that we wish students to engage in.第28页/共42页She lists five types:Questions of literal comprehension.These are questions whose answer are directly and explicitly expressed in the text.Questions involving reorganization or reinterpretation.These qu

31、estions require Ss to put literal information together in a new way or reinterpret it.Questions for inferences.They require Ss to consider what is implied but not explicitly stated.Questions for evaluation or appreciation.Such as making judgment about what the writer is trying to do and whether the

32、writer is biased or dishonest.Questions for personal response.The answers to these questions depend most on the readers reaction to the content of the text.第29页/共42页Understanding references:All natural language,spoken or written,uses referential words such as pronouns to refer to people or things al

34、 important reading skill.It requires the readers to use background knowledge in order to infer the implied meaning of the author.Making inferences is actually the process of relating the given information to what we have known about the world.Sometimes,inferences can be made only after we have read

36、at you are using.第32页/共42页Post-reading activitiesIn this area,teachers have to be most inventive or imaginative.They have to design tasks which are relevant to the text being studied and appropriate to the students level.The tasks can fulfil several functions,whether they are used in an extensive or

37、 an intensive reading context.At the post-reading stage,teachers often rely upon reading aloud,asking comprehension questions or asking students to paraphrase sentences of a text.第33页/共42页Sometimes sentences by sentence translation is conducted.We consider these activities inadequate to fulfil the f

38、unctions of post-reading tasks.Post-reading tasks should provide the students with opportunities to relate what they have read to what they already know or what they feel.In addition,post-reading tasks should enable students to produce language based on what they learned.第34页/共42页DiscussionRole play

42、The teacher provides key words and phrases and Ss retell the story according to these words or asks them to retell from another characters point of view.Retelling第38页/共42页WritingThe Ss are asked to write something based on what they have read.For example:Produce a tourist brochure for a place descri

44、otivation for reading,which can be achieved through pre-,while-,and post-reading for activities.The purpose of teaching reading is to guide students to learn to read so that they can read to learn in the future.Remember:it is important to make reading an enjoyable and fruitful experience for the students.第40页/共42页Thank You!第41页/共42页感谢您的观看！第42页/共42页
