人教版高中語文必修3《馬嵬（其二）》教案2篇
結合歷史自古以來，江山美人歷來都是引無數(shù)英雄豪杰競折腰的，如果說英雄選擇了美人卻丟了江山，把所有罪名都歸結于“女人是禍水”。但是，紂王無道，和有了妲己有必然的聯(lián)系嗎？有人說妲己壞透了，壞透了的妲己如果不是取得紂王的信任是壞不起來的，紂王聽信了妲己的讒言，聽與不聽決定權在紂王，而不在妲己。強勢永遠在紂王一邊。再來看看西施和楊貴妃：西施是作為越國貢獻給吳國的供品來到吳王夫差的身邊的，楊貴妃更是先是李隆基的兒媳婦被看中而得寵的。所以，西施和楊貴妃這兩個可憐的女人根本沒有自己的獨立選擇，沒有獨立的愛情，如果沒有西施，就會有南施，或北施；如果沒有楊貴妃，就會有李貴妃，王貴妃，總之什么施，什么妃是不能少的，因為那是吳王和李隆基的需要。
人教版高中語文必修3《蜀道難》教案2篇
【明確】“一夫當關，萬夫莫開”言劍閣有易守難攻的險要形勢，暗示中央朝廷的部隊很不容易打進來，因而野心家可以據(jù)險發(fā)動叛亂，“化為狼與豺”，搞地方割據(jù)。如果割據(jù)勢力之間出現(xiàn)矛盾沖突，難免要發(fā)生混戰(zhàn)，結果必定是“殺人如麻”。詩人這番預言在十多年后就得到了證實：從上元二年到大歷初即有段子璋、徐知道、崔旰等人相繼發(fā)動叛亂。詩人的意圖是要嚴防野心家發(fā)難。詩人從劍閣的險要引出對政治形勢的描寫。他化用西晉張載《劍閣銘》中形勝之地，匪親勿居的語句，目的在于勸人引以為鑒戒，警惕戰(zhàn)亂的發(fā)生，并聯(lián)系當時的社會背景，揭露了蜀中豺狼的磨牙吮血，殺人如麻，這既是描寫蜀道猛獸，又是影射政治黑暗的雙關語句，表達了對國事的憂慮與關切，為詩篇增加了現(xiàn)實的內涵、深厚的意蘊。唐天寶初年，太平景象背后正潛伏著危機，后來發(fā)生的安史之亂，證明詩人的憂慮是有現(xiàn)實意義的。

人教版高中政治必修3體味文化教案2篇
3、文化是人們的一種素養(yǎng)（1）人的文化素養(yǎng)是在社會生活、實踐中形成的。每個人所具有的文化素養(yǎng)，不是天生的，而是通過對社會生活的體驗，特別是通過參與文化生活、接受知識文化教育而逐步培養(yǎng)出來的。文化素養(yǎng)的形成，離不開生活、實踐和教育。人們在社會實踐中創(chuàng)造和發(fā)展文化，也在社會生活中獲得和享用文化。（2）人的文化素養(yǎng)表現(xiàn)在日常言行中。教師活動：引導學生閱讀教材7頁“公交車漫畫”材料，并思考所反映的問題學生活動：積極思考并討論問題教師點評：人們的精神活動離不開物質活動，人們的文化素養(yǎng)總是要通過他在日常生活中的言行、在社會實踐活動中的表現(xiàn)等表現(xiàn)出來。我們通過觀察人們的社會行為，就可以從中透視人們的精神世界和精神生活。4、文化的傳承和發(fā)展離不開物質載體。社會文化和精神產(chǎn)品離不開物質載體，一個時代的文化和精神產(chǎn)品，往往是這一時代社會發(fā)展軌跡的反映。
人教版高中語文必修2《荷塘月色》教案3篇
請問，作者究竟聽到歌聲沒有？”學生回答：“沒有?！薄斑@里是比喻，因為這里用得是‘仿佛’一詞……”對，是比喻。也就是說，作者是用歌聲來比喻荷香，是吧？“但是，“荷香與歌聲有什么可比的共同點嗎？”“荷香與歌聲都是斷斷續(xù)續(xù)、若有若無的?！薄岸译鼥V朧的。”“對。“荷香和歌聲都是‘縷縷’的、‘渺茫’的。這是比喻。這是一種特殊的比喻，錢鐘書先生把它叫做‘通感’。人們通過視覺、聽覺、觸覺、味覺、嗅覺等五官感知外界事物時，在一般情況下，彼此不能交錯；但在特殊情況下，五官功能卻能出現(xiàn)互相轉化、彼此溝通的現(xiàn)象叫“通感”，也叫“移覺”。舉幾個例子來說明：詩人艾青曾寫詩這樣描繪日本著名指揮家小澤征爾：‘你的耳朵在偵察，你的眼睛在傾聽……’這也是通感。又如：“那笛聲里有故鄉(xiāng)綠色平原上青草的香味，有四月的龍眼花的香味，有太陽的光明。”（郭風《葉笛》）
