1、Unit 5 Travelling abroad 教材分析和教材重组 本单元的中心话题是“出国旅游” ，课文始终围绕这一主题展开。旨在通过单元教学， 使学生了解在国外旅行或学习时可能会遇到的一些问题，并学会怎样去解决问题。要求学 生学会表达和支持个人观点，能用所学的有关出国旅游的词汇描述在国外居住生活的情况， 在国外旅游时能根据所给的信息选择恰当的旅游线路。语法方面要求学生会正确使用非限 制性定语从句。 课时一：Warming Up and Reading Task “热身”(Warming Up)部分设计了四个讨论题目，帮助学生在大脑中形成有关国外旅 游的信息，让学生讨论在国外旅行会遇到什么
