It is necessary for us to help students correctly identify various cultural phenomena and make them know that they should be divided into two and look at problems with dialectical eyes. In view of the communication obstacles existing in students' foreign exchanges, proper guidance can make them become a new generation of middle school students with historical vision, contemporary vision and world vision.
Fourth, the teaching process

Next, let's enter the second stop of the world cultural tour.
The second stop: a trip around the world
In this world, there are 196 countries, and each country has its own unique cultural customs, including food culture, clothing culture, architectural culture and so on. The so-called trip around the world is to understand and appreciate the cultural customs of various countries. Which country do you want to go to most during your trip around the world? What cultural customs do you want to know and appreciate?

Slide shows representative cultures of various countries.
Just now, we enjoyed the representative cultures of some countries in the world. Whenever we talk about these cultures, what do you think of?
Student: Think of the countries or regions where these representative cultures are located.
Not only that, every country has some representatives. Whether you like it or not, as long as his name is mentioned, people will think of this country. Don't believe us. Let's have a try?
Hitler Germany Bush USA Andersen Denmark
Shakespeare Britain Hugo France Saddam Iraq
Guide students to think:
1. When we mention a certain representative culture or representative figure, why do we immediately think of this country?
2. What aspects of the country's culture do these characters represent?
3. What influence do these representatives have on the culture of their own country and nation?
Summary: The cultures of different countries and nationalities have their own symbols and representatives. Cultural representatives of various countries are deeply branded with their own countries and nations. At the same time, these representatives introduced their own culture to the world. The various cultures make the world a big garden with flowers in full bloom.
Now, let's continue the "World Cultural Journey" and go to the third stop of the cultural journey.
Third stop: special trip
On the special trip, the teacher will lead everyone to experience the secrets of different cultures. First, please translate a sentence.
There is smoke, there is fire. There is smoke.
Guide students to think:
1. What does the difficulty in translation mean?
2. Are there any good or bad languages in the world?
3. If these differences no longer exist, what will happen?
Summary: Language is a kind of culture. There are differences in languages, regardless of advantages and disadvantages. There are cultural differences, each with its own merits. Every national culture has its right to live and develop freely, and the outstanding cultural achievements of different nationalities all contain the achievements of human civilization. If these cultural differences no longer exist, the world will become monotonous and lifeless.
[inquiry activity]
1 Can we make cultural differences disappear?
Can we unify all the different cultures and implement a cultural standard?
What direction do you want the culture to develop?
Summary: Globalization is different from standardization. Globalization should not lead to cultural singleness, and the development of the world tends to cultural pluralism. In the process of globalization, the cultures of various countries and nationalities are mutually integrated and promoted, showing a pluralistic and harmonious development situation.
