Some people think that the weather is unpleasant,the city ugly and dirty, the competition fierce and the streets unsafe.It is a city in a hurrry, but a very exciting place to be.

B.Language points:

1.It is a city in a hurrry, but a very exciting place to be

现在分词和过去分词在意义上不同。一般说来，现在分词表示主动的意义，过去分词表示被动的意义。

excited spectators 激动的观众。(观众被激动)

2)a moving film:一个动人的影片(影片使人感动)

a moved audience.一常被感动了的观众。(观众被感动)

2)intense: fierce concentration

3)unpleasantly or uncontrolled strong: fierce heat.

His plan met with fierce opposition.

3. In 1626 the island of Manhattan was bought from local Indians, Native Americans, for a handful of goods worth about $24. Today Native Americans express their anger over this business deal.

A.worth:adj 形容词 be worth:动词

英语的一个简单句中必须要有一个动词，be worth做动词时不能漏掉be. 而worth做形容词修饰名词的用法，老师们要提起注意，也许会成为高考的考点。

I paid only $4000 for this used car but it’s worth a lot more.

B.deal: n.名词agreement,esp in business. 协议，交易。

They both wanted to use the car, so they did a deal.(=reach a compromise)

It’s a deal.(=I agree to your terms.我同意你的条件)

StepIV.Writing a composition:

The fierce wars between the new settlers and the local Indians broke out.Settlers made agreements with Native Americans chiefs but always broke them afterwards.At last, they came to a deal: The Native Americans were forced onto the poor land that the settlers did not want.

Passage 2:

To our surprise,the island of Manhattan was bought from local Indians for a handful of goods worth about $24. Even today Native Americans express their anger over this business deal.In 1858 an area of poor housing was torn down and Central Park was created.
