[设计说明]在听力训练正式开始前,在班级里组织讨论,激活学生的背景知识,有利于随后进行的关于盲文创始人路易斯·布莱尔的生平介绍的听力训练顺利展开。如果学生的背景知识比较贫乏,教师可以对盲文作一个简单的介绍。 step 2 listening task 1.paul's teacher has asked everyone in the class to prepare a talk about a great inventor.listen to paul's talk about louis braille.then answer the following questions: (1)what country did louis braille come from?
