2.Translate paragraph4
Customs play a significant role in festivals,but sometimes they can change over time. With the development of modern society and the spread of new ideas,some traditions may fade away and others may be established.One example is the typical Chinese Spring Festival custom of lighting firecrackers to drive away the evil spirits and celebrate the new year.Nowadays,many big cities have given up this custom in order to avoid air pollution.Another example is Halloween,which slowly became an exciting festival for children,in spite of its religious origins.
风俗在节日中扮演重要角色，但有时也随时间而变化。随着现代社会的发展和新 思想的传播，有些传统会渐渐消失，而另一些传统则得以建立。中国春节燃放鞭 炮以驱鬼神、贺新年这一典型风俗就是一个例子。如今，为了避免空气污染，许 多大城市已经摒弃了这一风俗。另一个例子是万圣节，尽管有宗教渊源，但它慢 慢成为孩子们激动人心的节日。

课后反思
首先感谢领导给了我一次锻炼自己的机会，让我有机会为自己充电，能够学 习那些老教师的先进经验，专家老师点评的每一句每一个字对我来说都很宝贵实 用，也很现实，所以我都用笔记得非常细致，认真，那些老师的高效课堂艺术， 使我受益匪浅，获得了不少的教学经验以及教学方法，你们真的让我佩服的五体 投地!我感觉这次课上得还算成功。首先按照新课标完成了本节课的教学目标： 一是使学生充分理解课文大意并完成所给的任务，促进学生自主学习。二是训练 学生运用阅读技巧如何进行略读、寻读和精读。三是鼓励学生用英语表达自己的 观点并进行简单的理由阐述和做出决定。根据学生的课上反应和配合来看，基本 达到了预期教学目标，自我感觉还算是比较成功的一课，整节课的教学环节设置 有序，衔接得当，教学设计思路清晰；课堂气氛轻松愉快；学生乐于参与表现， 但是自我感觉做得不足的地方是教学用语还有待提高，应更加精炼准确有效，在 课堂上争取把更多的时间和机会留给学生去说、去练。其次，学生在课上被提问 回答问题时也有紧张情绪，应更多地鼓励学生，放开自我，积极主动地参与到学 习中来。另外，个别学生发音存在问题，需要在日常教学中加以规范指导。还有 个别学生不能主动参与到小组讨论和课堂学习中来，跟不上课堂节奏，对于这些 学生，课下应给与更多的鼓励和关注，提高他们对于英语学习的兴趣和自信心。 总之，本课基本上完成了课前的教学目标，学生课上的表现也达到了课标要求。 希望以后能够继续改进，呈现更好的课程
