教学建议

关于本单元教材内容的分析

本单元围绕“Travel”这一中心话题，结合Lesson 14“Jim’s train ride”和与travel相关的对话Lesson 15开展教学活动。Lesson 13是由格林先生打电话给校长引出了本单元的语法功能项目——宾语从句。由that引导的宾语从句是本单元教学的重点知识之一。本单元学习了用英语写电话留言(telephone message)，重现和新学了一些打电话的专用术语。本单元所阐述的有关travel的内容，和我们生活密切相关，如Lesson16，应灵活掌握，就其中的某些问题能有自己的独特见解。对于有关travel的交际用语，学生应学会熟练地使用。

关于本单元重难点知识的分析

1. I hope to see him as soon as possible.

as…as possible是一个固定词组，与as … as I can/ could同义。soon为副词，可将soon换为别的副词或形容词，作“尽可能……地(的)”解。如：

as soon as possible 尽可能早

as quick as possible 尽可能快

as often as possible 尽量经常

as friendly as possible尽量友好

【例】

(1)You’d better leave here as soon as possible.

你最好尽早离开这里。

(2)Try to be as friendly to your classmates as possible.

对同学要尽可能友好。

(3)Your should go home to see your sick mother as often as possible.

你应当尽可能多回去看你病中的母亲。

(4)Get up as early as possible tomorrow ==Get up as early as you can.

明天清尽早起床。

(5)Will you please say it as clearly as possible? =Will you please say it as clearly as you can?

请你能尽可能说得清楚些吗?

(6)Do it as quickly as possible =Do it as quickly as you can.尽快去做吧。

需要注意的是as soon as possible指时间的迟早;而as quickly as possible则表示动作的快慢。

2. I’ll leave a message on his desk. 我将在他的桌子上留言。

(1)leave a message. “留言;留话”，类似的还有：

give sb a message 给某人带个口信;

take message带个口信，带个话;

send a message to sb 发信息给某人

(2)leave 的用法归纳

1)离开;出发。词组有：leave…for… 离开…去…;leave for 动身去…，如：

When will you leave Beijing? 你们什么时候离开北京?

We are leaving Beijing for Shanghai. 我们将离开北京去上海。(leave此句中是及物动词)

When are you leaving for London?什么时候你将动身去伦敦?(leave此句中是不及物动词)

2)留下;丢下;遗忘。常用结构：leave+宾语+介词短语，如：

I left my bay in your home. 我把我的书包忘在你们家了。

3)过去分词left 用在名词后作宾语，意为“剩下”，如：

Don’t worry, there is some time left. 不要着急，还剩一点时间。

4)leave还可表示“让……处于……状态”，例如：

Will you leave the door open? 请把门敞开好吗?

3.I’m free every day except today. 除了今天我每天都空。

在英语中，besides，but和 except作为介词，都有“除……之外”的意思。besides是“除……之外，还有……”是肯定的;而except和but是“除……之外，没有……”是否定的。在否定句中，besides可以和 except，but同义。与but相比，except所含“除外”的意味更明确，语气也更强烈。例如：

(1)All came back besides Kate.除了凯特已回来，其他所有人也回来了。

(2)All came back except/ but Kate.除了凯特，全都回来了。(意思是凯特还没有回来)

(3)I dont want anything but / except this.除了这个，我什么都不要

(4)We go to school everyday except Sunday.除了星期天，我们每天都上学。

4. What does the teacher say?

She says that she will leave a message on the headmaster’s desk.

在这个句子中that是一个引导词，用来引导一个宾语从句。that在口语中可以省略。在使用含有宾语从句的复合句中，当主句是一般现在时的时候，从句可以用任何时态。但是，当主句是一般过去时的时候，从句必须用过去的某一种时态(客观真理除外)。例如：

I hear she will be back in an hour.

He said she lived with her mother.

He told me that the sun is the biggest of the three.
