Self-check & Reading

主编:黄冈中学英语集体备课组

Step 1 The introduction to the text

  Is the art of giving and receiving gifts in China the same as that in western countries? Of course not. In China, people can’t give friends a clock or an umbrella as a present. It is proper to send others money on their birthdays. After receiving the gift, Chinese people can’t open it until the giver leaves. However, in the west, people like the gift that has some thought behind it. So they don’t often send others money as gifts. After getting the gift, people should open it at once and say thanks to the guest. At present some middle school students like to choose something expensive as birthday gifts. As the saying goes,“It’s the thought that counts.”So it’s unnecessary for students to send each other expensive gifts. True friendship doesn’t depend or how much your gifts are. You can make a card by hand for friends or send them an e-card.

I’d like to have dinner in Blue Lagoon. To start with, the atmosphere is relaxing.

(2)起初;开始时(尤指后来情况发生变化)

It was sunny to start with, later on it rained.

The flight to New York takes off at 8:30 am.(反义词是land)

.key sentences

1.Q:as 引导的是时间状语从句还是原因状语从句呢?

A:是原因状语从句,as意思是“因为”。

2.引导原因状语从句的连词主要的有because, as, since, for。他们的用法区别是:

(1)because表示直接的原因而不是推断的原因,语气最强,从句是全句的强调部分。往往用来回答由why开头的特殊疑问句。

—Why were you late for class?

—Because I missed the school bus.

He can’t go to school today because he is ill.

(2)since语气较弱,意思是“既然”,表示已知或明显的原因,主句的内容是全句句意的重心所在。

Since Jane isn’t free now, you have to go shopping alone.

(3)as引导的状语从句,一般位于主句之前,表示的原因不如because强。如果位于主句之后,则表示的语气更弱,是对主句的附加说明。

As Mike is not strong, he can’t carry the box.

As Mike is a new student, we should try to help him.

(4)for是个并列连词,连接两个并列句,表示对前句内容的原因的推断。

Spring comes, for the flowers come out.

The ground is wet, for it rained last night.

 

Grammar宾语补足语(Ⅱ)

动词+宾语+动词的适当形式

1.动词+宾语+动词不定式 宾语和宾语补足语之间存在逻辑上的主谓关系。

Parents always tell me to concentrate more on studies.

I would like Maria to help me with English.

注意:有此用法的动词有ask, tell, want, teach, get, order, like, love, prefer, warn, would like, invite, force, allow, wish, want, expect, encourage, advise, cause。

2.动词+宾语+动词原形

I often see Jim play sports after school.

Let’s go fishing tomorrow.

注意:

(1)感官动词一觉(feel)、二听(hear, listen to)、三让(let, make, have)、四看(see, watch, look at, notice)有此用法。感官动词接动词原形作宾补时表示动作的整个过程。

(2)在被动语态中,在宾语补足语动词原形前面要加上省掉的to。

The boy was seen to play with water on the lake.

Jenny was heard to read English in the classroom.

3.动词+宾语+现在分词

I heard someone singing in the next room.

Look! Can you see a boy running towards us?

Did you smell something burning?

注意:所有的感官动词都有此用法。表示动作正在发生或者进行。

4.动词+宾语+过去分词

You aren’t supposed to get your ears pierced.

Jim has had his hair cut.

Speak louder so that you can make yourself heard.

注意:动词have, make, get有此用法。此结构中done表示被动。
