教学建议

课文分析

　　本单元的课文是一篇幽默故事。通过这个有趣的故事，对粗心大意的人和事进行了含蓄的讽刺和批评，并通过它来教育学生克服粗心大意的不良习惯，养成严谨认真、一丝不苟的作风。

　　Part1 (Paragraph 1 ) Dr Baker accepted the invitation to the 199. . .Medical Conference in London.

　　Part 2 (Paragraphs 2―10) Dr Baker was surprised to be asked to give a talk on DNA, which he knew nothing.

　　Part 3 (Paragraphs 11―18) Someone had made a careless mistake by writing Dr D. Baker instead of Dr Peter Baker, and Dr Baker gave a talk on ENT.

　　下面的短文概括了这个幽默的主要内容，可供复述：

　　Dr Baker was very much surprised to receive an invitation to the 199. . . Medical Conference in London. However, he decided to attend the meeting himself. On the morning of the second day of the conference , the main speaker failed to arrive because of the bad weather at the airport. So he was asked to give a talk instead. When the organizer asked him to give a talk on DNA, Dr Baker told him that he was an expert on ENT. Later the organizer discovered the mistake. Though the organizer had put Dr P. Bakers name on the list of speakers, when the invitation list was being done, someone had made a careless mistake and had written “Dr D. Baker” instead. Anyhow Dr Baker did give a talk that day and everyone at the conference was very interested in it.
