Year 9 English

At the preparation stage of VCE, Year 9 students are expected to learn how to analyze the reading materials, and to understand how and why evidences are used to demonstrate the authors’ intentions and power of writing. The reading resources are mainly selected from the mainstream media such as news papers, TV reports and features, intending to help them think actively about social affairs and issues and learn how to express their opinions with different writing styles. In the second semester of Year 9, novel reading will be integrated in the English curriculum, helping students to lengthen their reading lists and enhance their ability of literature appreciation. The novel recommended is from the VCE novel lists, which help students be familiar with the literature they are going to study in VCE stages and improve their skills of literature appreciation at early as this stage.

作为VCE的准备阶段,9年级的学生要学习如何分析文章,了解作者是如何利用论据、为什么运用这些论据表达自己的写作意图,文字的力量是如何表现出来的。我们选择的学习资料主要来自主流媒体,如报纸、电视报道和专题节目,鼓励学生积极思考社会热点问题,学习如何使用不同的写作风格表达自己的观点。从下半年开始,9年级学生还会在老师的指导下额外读一本我们推荐的英语小说,扩大阅读量,熟悉他们在VCE阶段即将学习的文学作品,提高阅读鉴赏能力。

A large amount of resources about the latest social affairs will be used as the learning materials to stimulate discussion, persuasion and debate within which students are supposed to grasp the skills of influencing their readers in a clever and powerful way. Literature analysis will also be focused to help students work out how every single word and evidence is used by experienced writers to influence the readers, which is also an important part of VCE exams.

在高级写作2的课程中,学生将接触更多针对VCE考试的写作练习,尤其是说服文。我们将运用大量有关社会时事的资料,帮助学生展开讨论、说服和辩论,学生要学习如何用巧妙而有力的方式影响读者的能力。我们还会向学生介绍文学分析的写作,帮助学生了解专业的作家是如何运用精准的词汇和论据感染读者,这也是VCE考试的一个重要部分。
