3、掌握语法点：thecomparativeandsuperlativedegreesofadjectives(形容词的比较级和最高级)
［学生分析］
1、利用多媒体课件上英语课，学生视听感受明显，表现出极大兴趣，在欣赏和享受中学习，学习效果很明显。
2、学生以前已经学过形容词的比较级和最高级，但掌握的强度不够，对单音节和多音节形容词的比较级和最高级的表达上总是出现错误。通过对本课的学习可以巩固所学知识，掌握用正确的语言结构表达人物特点和人物比较。
［教学目标］
1、谈论学生感兴趣的话题，指导学生学习有关人物特点的单词、人物比较的表达及语法知识点“形容词的比较级和最高级”。
2、学生根据班级的真实情况，采用“名人专访”、“公众投票”、“明日之星”的游戏，培养学生的想象力、自信心和合作精神。
3、通过学习本课，增强师生、生生间的相互了解和沟通。
4、培养学生的口头表达能力、阅读理解能力和写作能力。
