酸楚的名字：留守儿童

有这样一群孩子，他们还嗷嗷待哺时，父母就远离家乡，到遥远的城里谋生糊口。很多时候，他们只能从电话中或者从偶尔寄来的汇款单中，才能感觉父母的存在。当别的孩子都在享受花样年华的时候，他们被留在乡下，孤独地像荒2 / 9

草一样生长。人们给这群孩子起了一个酸楚的名字：留守儿童。根据2005年全国1％人口抽样调查的抽样数据推断，全国农村留守儿童约5800万人。

由于贫困的现实处境，“留守儿童”过早地体会到生活的辛酸和物质匮乏的压力。他们只能孤独寂寞地成长，享受不到来自父母的关爱和亲情。

由于他们与父母的长期分离造成了家庭教育的弱化，情感缺失和心理失衡导致许多留守儿童心理不能健康发展，轻者经常逃学、打架，重者违纪犯法，给社会造成不良影响。

(给出本文背景资料和图片，让学生能够更好地了解文章的主题和内容。） Think about the following two questions after reading it. 1.What’s the main idea of this passange 2.What kind of problems might Li Wei have?

(不必针对学生的猜测判断对错，旨在让学生掌握根据标题和插图来预测文章内容的能力，引导他们带着问题去阅读下面的文章）

Li Wen is a normal stay-at-home child.Let's read the article and learn more about his life.

Step 2 Fast reading

1.Skim the article on page 30. Then match the paragraphs with their main ideas. 1.Li Wen’s unhappiness began to influence his school work. Para.1 2.They had a long talk and Li Wen understood his parents . Para.2 3.Li Wen’s background. Para.3 3 / 9

4. Li Wen has really changed. Para.4 （目的在于让学生快速地浏览课文，把握每一段的中心意思，为下一步“把缺失的句子放入正确的位置”降低了难度。）

2.Read the passage and put the sentences [A-D] in the correct places. A. They had a long talk

B. Now Li Wen has really changed

C. However, things began to change a few years ago D. His teacher was worried about him

（给予学生方法上的指导，例如，Paragraph 1: C 由上文“当他小时候，他很少惹麻烦，他的家人和他在一起生活”，以及下文“他的父母搬到城市里去找工作，他很想念他们而且觉得很孤独和不开心”，可知李文的生活发生的变化，故应选C。）

Step 3 Careful Reading 1.Read Para. 1 and answer : 1)Where is Li Wen from?

2)How did he feel when his parents moved to the city?

Then according to the answers, talk about Li Wen’s background. 1. ...a 15-year old boy from the countryside Li Wen’s background

2. ...felt lonely and unhappy when... 2.Read Para. 2

4 / 9

1)Reading strategy:Tell Ss that they have to use the clues from the passage to help them guess the meanings of the words in the paragragh: influence, absent, boarding school, in person.Make sure Ss know how to do it. 例如:如何猜测influence的意思？ 读 “until a conversation with his parents influenced his way of thinking”一句，然后再读第三段可知，父母和李文的谈话让他理解了父母对他付出多少，让他意识到自己问题的所在，故可推测是其父母亲和他的谈话“影响”了他思维的方式，故influence一词应译为“影响”。

(这一步一方面要培养学生在阅读中学会猜测词意的能力，另一方面为理解第二段扫清了语言上的障碍。）

2）Read Para.1 and Para.2,fill in the form: Li wen’s problems 1.He often felt______________________. 2.He became_______________________. 3.Sometimes he _____________and failed_____________. 4.He was shy and ___________________________. 5.He wanted _____________________________.
