教學建議
對話課建議:
在Lesson 21 有關打電話的對話練習,教師引導學生以口頭練習為主,讓學生在對話交際功能學會打電話的用語。教師可設置情景對話讓學生們進行操練,比如說:教師讓兩個學生們到前表演,話題為談論借英語學習雜志或其它使用學生們感興的題目,教師給學生在黑板上寫一些電話用語的日常用語如:Can/May I speak …..? This is ….speaking? Is that..? so on教師在這里只充當配角。
課文建議
教師在Lesson22中,讓學生分小組學習本文章,復述課文,分小組討論集郵的好處。教師與學生們共同參與完成本課的學習內(nèi)容。教師盡力給學生們多提供有關本課內(nèi)容的信息和圖片。
聽力建議
1.首先,教師對學生講今天要學習的是收集硬幣的知識,教師介紹在這段對話中共有五個人,他們都有不尋常的硬幣。
2.教師讓學生們閱讀每一個練習的問題,弄清楚學生們在聽的過程中應抓住哪些重點,然后教師在播放磁帶,以泛聽和精聽為過程,最后教師檢查學生做練習的情況。
教材分析
本單元是一個復習課,本文的對話是以打電話為主,練習打電話用語,語句比較簡單,兩篇閱讀課是有關于收集硬幣集郵的介紹,文中用一些數(shù)字表明硬幣的發(fā)展過程,同時也學習提供一些集郵的建議,在23課中語法主要是復習1至5單元所學的知識點及詞性的轉換。
重點難點
辨析:pack與parcel,packet
這三個詞都指包。
pack多指較小的包,與package可以互換;學生用的背包可用pack,如:
The soldier carried a pack on his back. 這個軍人背上背著一個小包。
packet也指較小的包,多指同類東西的“一束”,“一盒”等,如:
a packet of letters(一捆信),packet(pack)of cigarettes(一包香煙)
parcel多指“郵包”。
shape,form,figure的區(qū)別
shape著重指人或物的比較具體的整個外形,不太正式。
We saw a shape through the mist but we couldn’t see who it was.我們從霧中看見一個人影,但我們看不清那是誰。
form指有具體結構和看得見的某種特殊形狀或是抽象的形式
In the early morning light we could just see the forms of the mountains.在晨曦中,我們僅能看到群山的輪廓。
figure指物時,側重指輪廓;指人時,著重指姿態(tài)。
I could see a tall figure near the door. 我可以看見門附近有一個高大的身影。
possible, probable的區(qū)別
這兩個詞的反義詞是impossible, improbable
1)possible作“或許”解,有“也許如此,也許不如此”之意。強調(diào)客觀上有可能性,但常常帶有“實際可能性很小”的暗示。
2)probable用來指有根據(jù),合情理,值得相信的事物,帶有“大概,很可能”的意味。語氣比possible要重,是most likely之意。
It’s possible, though not probable. That he will accept the terms.他也可能接受這些條件,但希望不大。
(2) be possible, be probable常用形式主語it,構成句型為:
It is possible/probable + that …(從句)
It is possible /probable+ for sb. to do sth. 例如:
他有可能做這件事。
[√] It is possible for him to do this.
[√] It is possible that he will do this.
[×] He is possible to do this.
particular, especial或special區(qū)別
三者均有“特別的”之意,
但particular指同類事物中具有獨特性質(zhì)的一個
especial和special相同,強調(diào)某種特殊的目的或用途,但especial為書面語,口語中多用special。
There was a particular expression in his eyes. 他眼睛中有一種特別的神情。
The patient needs special/ especial care. 病人需要特殊的照料。
Coins can be made of many different kinds of metal mixed together.
mixed together(=…which are mixed together)過去分詞短語作后置定語,相當于一個省略的定語從句。
He is reading the short stories written by Lu Xun. ( =He is reading the shorts stories which were written by Lu Xun. )
Please give me letters received yesterday. (=…the letters which were received yesterday. )
如果這個分詞是一個單詞,就位于修飾的名詞之前,作定語。
She is our respected teacher.
The lost key has been found.
A year passed when it was realized that the parcel had been sent to the wrong destination.一年以后才發(fā)現(xiàn)包裹送錯了地方。
It’s possible that one of them kept a bank where the workers could keep their money safe.有可能他們中的某個人辦了一家銀行,工人們可以放心地把錢存在那兒。
這是一個由形式主語it引導的復合句,真實主語是后面的that從句。其句型結構為:It is+形容詞+that從句,常用于這個句型的形容詞有:possible,necessary, important, clear, certain, strange等。
It is necessary that we master one or two foreign languages.我們精通一至二門外國語是很必要的。
keep a bank意為“開辦銀行”。此處keep為及物動詞,意為“經(jīng)營”、“管理”、“養(yǎng)活”。
keep a shop意為“開辦商店” keep the farm意為“經(jīng)營農(nóng)場”
keep the house意為“管理家務”keep the family意為“養(yǎng)家糊口”
It contained 54,951 coins dating from the year 260-275 AD.那一次挖掘的硬幣共有54951枚,都是公元260-275年間的硬幣。
dating from在句中作定語,相當于定語從句…which dated from the year…修飾先行詞coins, date用作vi., 意思是“起始”、“興趣于”。date from 表示“始于……時期”。
過去分詞短語和現(xiàn)在分詞短語用作定語時相當于一個定語從句。如:
Tell the children playing (==who are playing) there not to make so much noise.讓那些在那兒玩的小孩別這么吵。
They’re problems left (=which have been left) over by history.這些是歷史遺留下來的問題。
這座古廟的歷史可以追溯到兩千年前。
[×] The old temple is dated from 2,000 years ago.
[√]The old temple dates back 2,000 years ago.
[√]The old temple dates back to 2,000 years ago.
[√]The old temple dates back 2,000 years.
It does not matter if /whether they are old. 郵票)新舊沒關系。
1) It does not matter if/whether…是一個很有用的句型。
It doesn’t matter ( to me ) if I miss my train, because there's another one later.對我來說錯過一趟火車沒關系,因為后面還有。
2) It doesn’t matter 后還能跟其他從句
If she does her best, it doesn’t matter what people think of her.只要她盡了力,別人怎么看她無關緊要。
If you are just starting to collect stamps, here is some advice for you to follow.
1) start 和begin, continue有一點是相同的,即它們可以用動詞不定式或動名詞作賓語。
He started learning / to learn English when he was ten.
They began building / to build the dam in 1994.
How can you continue working / to work with all that noise going on?
2) 但是當這些動詞本身是進行時態(tài)時,一般后面跟動詞不定式。
starting to collect 一般不能換成starting collecting。
It’s starting / beginning to rain.開始下雨了。
3)start或begin后跟的動詞是表達有關感情和思想的動詞時,一般也不用動名詞,而用動詞不定式。
She started / began to understand. 她開始理解了。
打電話的說法:
l)電話鈴響時,當你拿起話筒,通常首先自報姓名和自己的電話號碼。如:
Hello, Bob Dorson.
Hello, 742511.
This is Bob Dorson speaking. Who is that speaking?
Yes?
2) 若對方要找的不是Bob而是Chris,對方可能詢問:
Is Chris in/at home / there ?
May /can /Could I speak to Chris?
I’d like to speak to Chris , please.
若Chris在家,Bob去叫Chris,則對方稍等一會:
A moment, please.
Hold on, please.
Hold the line, please.
Don’t hang up, please.
3) Bob通知Chris 聽電話:
Telephone for you.
You are wanted on the phone, Chris.
4) 在互報完姓名后,就可以開始談話了。
若Chris不在家,你可告訴對方,并請他留下口信。
Chris isn’t in /here right now. Can / Could I take a message for you?
Would you like to leave a message?
