高中的英语课文比初中的英语课文篇幅更长，难度更大，高一的学生在阅读课文时，有时不免觉得蛮辛苦蛮枯燥。但是在学习课文时，如果能创造性地阅读，灵活解读文本和整合句子，既能增加课文阅读的趣味性又能激发思维能力。
下面以人教版必修3第五单元《Canada-“The True North”》为例讲讲怎样在学习课文的过程中，解读文本，整合句子，增加乐趣。
这个单元的阅读课文《A Trip on“The True North”》是一篇旅游散文，记叙了Li Daiyu和Liu Qian的旅途见闻。本文以时间为线索，以地点转移为顺序描述了加拿大的自然美景、人口、植物、动物、主要城市、五大湖以及淡水资源。在阅读过程中，可以对文章中的句子结构进行整合，同时训练写作技能：
1. 原文句子：Here in Vancouver， you’re in Canada’s warmest part. People say it is Canada’s most beautiful city， surrounded by mountains and the Pacific Ocean.
整合为：Vancouver， the warmest part of Canada， is the most beautiful city， surrounded by mountains and the pacific ocean.
亮点：用同位语解释Vancouver，同时有过去分词短语，补充说明the city。
2. 原文句子：Skiing in the Rocky Mountains and sailing in the harbour make Vancouver one of Canada’s most popular cities to live in. Its population is increasing rapidly.
整合为：Thanks to its good location， skiing in the Rocky Mountains and sailing in the harbor make Vancouver one of Canada’s most popular cities to live in， which results in the rapid increase of the population.
亮点：添加原因和使用定语从句描述结果，让句子的意思更清晰。
3. 原文句子：The coast north of Vancouver has some of the oldest and most beautiful forests in the world. It is so wet there that the trees are extremely tall， some measuring over 90 metres.
整合为：It is the warm climate that boosts the growth of the oldest and beautiful forests./ So wet is the climate that the trees are extremely tall， some measuring over 90 metres.
亮点：加入强调句结构来整合句子，突出天气所起的重要作用。还可以使用So...that...的倒装句来整合句子。
4. 原文句子：Canada is quite empty. Canadians live within a few hundred kilometres of the USA border， and the population is only slightly over 30 million.
整合為：With a population of slightly over 30 million， Canada seems quite empty， which makes Canadians live within a few kilometres of the USA border.
亮点：使用介词with结构，表达地大人稀的原因。
5. 原文句子：They went through a wheat-growing province and saw farms that covered thousands of acres.
整合为：Thanks to its warm climate on the west coast， one of its provinces is abundant in wheat， with farms covering thousands of acres.
亮点：添加原因，改用了with的复合结构，改用了“富产（be abundant in）”的表达，丰富了句子的色彩。
6. 原文句子：An urban area， the busy port city of Thunder Bay at the top of the Great Lakes. Ocean ships can sail up the Great Lake.
整合为：Thunder Bay， a busy port city at the top of the Great Lakes， is an urban city with a prosperous business of shipping.
亮点：使用了同位语来说明主语，用了with介词短语作为修饰语。
7. 原文句子：Canada has more fresh water than any other country in the world.
整合为：Because of the Great lakes， Canada has more fresh water than any other country in the world.
亮点：添加原因，丰富句子内容。
阅读课文，在解读文本的同时，可以通过以上方式整合和改编课文的句子，可以让句子的逻辑性更强，同时我们也能更明白在英语写作中如何把句子写得有理有据。更重要的是，通过整合句子可以收到以下效果：一是学生觉得原来自己也可以和老师一起把人教版的教材进行整合改编，增强了对语言学习的自信心;二是在整合的过程中，学生对课文的理解更加深入透彻，比教师满堂灌的效果要好。
