给大家讲个典故，听大笨钟的名字来历很特别，原来的一个王子修了一口大钟，可是没有人能把这口钟放在他的钟楼上。后来，一位名叫“笨”的大力士把这口钟放在了钟楼上，于是这口钟便叫“大笨钟”了。Please remember it.

教学反思:

本课是学习关于英语文化的内容，让学生了解英国标志性建筑----大本钟，我从它的历史引入，先让学生对此产生浓厚兴趣，再进入重点知识学习。接着通过课件展示让学生直观观察大本钟，学习词汇及句型，从它的位置到它的面再到整体，引导他们运用词汇和句型有条理地描述它。本课要补充介绍钟面上的罗马数字知识，让学生感受在记数上的文化差异。

在整个教学活动中采取以教师讲解为主，结合学生听、说、读、写相结合的方式。全课结构紧密，时间分配合理，知识趣味性强，能较好地激发学生的学习兴趣和动机。

不足需改进的是：整课容量较大，学生操练不够，难点突破不够。
