本章教學目標

1. 提高交際能力(表達意愿的用語)；

2. 理解省略這一語法現象；

3. 學會使用一些單詞、短語和句型。

重點難點突破

【對話】

1．I wish we could go to the seaside today.但愿我們今天能去海邊玩。

wish后接賓語從句用虛擬語氣。從句的時態如下：

(1)與現在事實相反，從句的謂語動詞用過去時(did)，(無論第幾人稱，be的過去時都用were)；

(2)與過去事實相反，從句的謂語動詞用過去完成時(had done);

(3)若表示將來不大可能實現的愿望，從句謂語動詞用過去將來時(could/would)。

I wish he were good at his lessons.(=But in fact he isn't.)

I wish I had seen the film long before.(==But in fact we didn't.)

I wish I could fly to the moon.(==It's a pity we can't fly to the moon.)

注意；hope做動詞，所表示的是估計可能實現的愿望，故其后的賓語從句都用陳述語氣

2．Pity we live so far from the sea.真遺憾，我們住的離海太遠了.

(1)此句應為It's a pity that we live so far from the sea. It's a pity that...是用來表示遺憾的交際用語。在口語中，It's a和that可以省略。

Pity you can't swim.(It's a pity that you can't swim.)真遺憾，你不會游泳。

(2)pity 作具體的一件“可憐的事”、“憾事”解釋時，是可數名詞。

It is a pity to waste time.浪費時間是一件憾事。

What a pity(it was that)we didn't meet last time!真遺憾我們上次沒見面!

(3) pity作“同情”、“惋惜”解時，是不可數名詞�？梢院蚮eel，take，have構成詞組，請注意pity后面的介詞的搭配。feel pity for；take pity on；have pity on是常見的詞組。

He feels no pity for the disabled and the poor.他不同情殘疾人和窮人。

“Have pity on me.”The wolf begged to MrDongGuo.“可憐可憐我吧!”狼哀求東郭先生。

3．He's doing very well in the navy.

do well in...do fine；be good at“在……方面做得好”；get on well(工作、學習、生活、生長情況進展好。

Jack doesn't do well in his lessons but he is good at sports.

The patient is doing well.病人大有起色。

Everything in the garden is doing well.花園里的花木都長得不錯。

比較：do well做得好，做得對；do good做好事，有好處；

Giving up smoking will do you good.戒煙對你有好處。

4．make up one's mind是與“遲疑”、“動搖”、“不知所措”等相對的說法，意味著打定主意、下了決心、認定某事，后跟動詞不定式或從句，也可單獨使用。注意mind的單復數。

They have made up their minds to keep up with the others.他們決定趕上其他人。

Aristotle had made up his mind that heavy objects always fell faster than light objects.亞里斯多得認定重的物體比輕的物體落地快。

5．Take a deep breath and I'll time you.你使勁吸一口氣，我給你計時。

take a deep breath/draw a deep breath深深地吸一口氣；hold/catch one's breath屏住呼吸；out of one's breath上氣不接下氣；waste one's breath(浪費口舌)。

注意：take breath(歇一歇，喘口氣)...have/take a rest

【課文】

1．That is 3.5％by weight. 按重量計也就是百分之三點五。

注意：by(to form adverbial phrases of time，length，weight，number)”(單位)按……，以……計算。”注意定冠詞的使用。

(1)by the day按日計算；by the month按月計算；by the hour按鐘點計；by the kilo論公斤；by the dozen按打;by the piece按件。

In England，sugar is sold by the pound，eggs by the dozen and cloth by the yard.

(2)by volume按體積(計算)； by weight按重量；sell by retail零賣(買);比較：in calories用卡；in centuries 用百年；in years用年；in meters用米

sell by wholesale批發；by price計價；by distance計程；by time計時

2．The Mediterranean=The Mediterranean sea；The Atlantic=The Atlantic Ocean英語中在表示江、河、海、湖、山脈、海灣等專有名詞前要加定冠詞。例如：the Yangtze River(長江)，the Mississippi(密西西比河)，the Red Sea(紅海)，the West lake(西湖)，the Alps(阿爾陴斯山脈)，the Persian Gulf(波斯灣)等.

但當其用作定語修飾后面的名詞時，則可不用定冠詞，如：Mediterranean water(地中海的水)，Atlantic water(大西洋的水)等。

3．a depth of深度有……；有……的深度

We found water at a depth of 10 metres.我們在深達10米處找到了水。

The lake has a depth of300 feet in the middle.該湖的中心深達300英尺。

The sperm whale can dive to a depth of 1000 metres.鯨魚可以潛到1000米的水下。

歸納：表示事物長(length)、寬(width)、高(height)的句型有三種：

The snow is 3 feet in depth./The snow is 3 feet deep./The snow has a depth of 3 feet.

4．on(an/the) average平均起來，一般來說

She receives two letters each day on(an/the)average.她平均每天收到兩封信。

The price of apples is about four yuan per kg on average.蘋果大約每公斤4元錢。

其它用法：above the average(在一般水平以上)；below the average;(在一般水平以下)；up to the average(接近一般水平)；the average of winter temperature(冬天的平均氣溫)。

Tom's work at school is above the average ,John's is below the average and Jim's is up to the average.湯姆的成績在平均水平以上，約翰的在平均水平以下，吉姆的接近一般水平。

5．The minerals are partly supplied by hundreds of natural springs which flow into the Dead Sea，and partly by the River Jordan.

partly為副詞，意為“部分地”。在表示有兩部分的原因時，可以用它來分別說明。其句型為：partly through+名詞…+partly through+名詞；partly because+從句…partly because+從句。

He has failed in the examination partly through carelessness and partly through laziness他考試沒及格，一方面是因為粗心，一方面是因為懶.

I was late for work partly because I got up late and partly because I met with an accident.我上班遲到，一方面是因為我起床晚了，一方面是因為我遭到意外。

6．at a time

at a time作“一次(性)地，每次，個別地”解，常用于“數詞(時間名詞)+at a time”結構，間或也可表示“在某一時期”，相當于at onetime，常用于過去時的句子中。

The teacher asked the students to come to his office one at a time.

The accident took place at a time when national tension was at its peak.這個事故發生在國內緊張局勢處于高峰的時刻。

聯想：at one time 度，有一個時期，曾經； 同時，一齊

at times有時，偶爾，相當于 sometimes, from time to time

at all times 不停地，經常，始終；不論什么時候(at any time)

at the same time同時，一齊;可是，然而

7．occur happen，take place發生； appear 浮現

(1)sth. occur=sth. happen某事發生了

Terrible things usually occur at midnight.可怕的事情通常在午夜發生。

(2)sth. occur to sb.某人心中突然想起某事

A good idea occurred to me.我心生一計。

(3) It occurred/occurs to sb.to do sth.某人想起做某事

(4)It occurred/occurs to sb.that...某人想到某事

If you want to buy the new house，leave out the price，we all can help you.你如果想買這套新房，不要考慮價錢，我們大家都會幫你的。

9．I beg your pardon/beg your pardon/pardon對不起，請原諒。常用于下列情況：

(1)做了錯事道歉時。I beg your pardon. I took your pen by mistake just now.

(2)談話中提出異議前。Beg your pardon. I don't agree with you.

(3)沒聽清楚對方的話，希望重復一遍時，這里也可只用“Beg your pardon. Pardon.”(說時用升調)Pardon? I didn't catch you.

10．Cross out/off劃掉，勾銷，劃出，更著重用筆劃出，做出記號

Some of the words are unnecessary. Cross them out.一些詞沒必要，把它們劃掉。

Cross out all the grammar mistakes and leave them out.把語法錯誤劃出，并刪除。

11．Squids take in water and then force it out of holes in their bodies.

take in吸收(absorb)；接納，接受(accept)；理解(understand)；改小(衣服等)

The students take in most of what the teacher has said.學生們理解了老師講的大部分內容。

Could you take in the coat a little for me?你能將這件大衣改小一點嗎?

【重點難點解析】

1. Seen from space, the earth looks blue.

從太空望去，地球看上去是藍色的。

句中Seen from space為過去分詞狀語表示條件，相當于一個條件狀語從句。If it is seen from space, the earth looks blue. 又如：

Taken good care of, the machine will last long.

Invited to the Palace ball, they will be very happy.

2. It takes 80 years for Mediterranean water to be chanced with Atlantic water, as there is only one narrow entrance where the Mediterranean meets the Atlantic.

需要80年時間才能使地中海的水與大西洋的水對流，因為地中海和大西洋的匯合處僅有一個狹窄的入口。

句中It takes some time for sb. to do (be done)為固定句型，相當于It takes sb. some time to do sth. (be done)，意為“花掉某人多長時間干某事”。

地中海為專有名詞，其前面一定要加冠詞the，即the Mediterranean(sea)。又如the Salt Lake, the Atlantic Ocean等，但當它們做為形容詞時可不加定冠詞the。如Mediterranean water地中海里的水。

meet在句中意為匯合，交匯，此處其相當于join。又如：The house stands where three roads meet. =The house stands where three roads join.

3. Coral needs certain conditions in order to live.

珊瑚需要一定的生存條件。

句中certain為形容詞，其基本用法如下：

A. 表示“確鑿的，可靠的，無疑的”，在句中可做表語也可做定語。

如：The facts are certain. 事實確鑿。

This is a certain remedy for giving up smoking.

這是戒煙的有效辦法。

B. 表示“有把握的”、“肯定的”、“確信的”，相當于sure，一般做表語。

We are certain to win. 我們肯定會贏。

I'm not certain whether he will come or not.

我不能肯定他是否會來。

C. 表“某種”、“某一”、“一定的”，只做定語。

A certain Tom is waiting for you at the school gate.

一個叫湯姆的人在校大門口等你。

I'm very sorry not to tell you the truth for a certain reason.

由于某種原因，我非常抱歉不能告訴你真相。

4. By doing this the animal can hold its breath for a long time.

這樣一來巨頭鯨就能較長時間地摒住呼吸。

句首By doing this中的this指代前面的整個句子，介詞by在此處引導v. -ing短語，作方式 狀語，表示“用……，通過……�！�

如：By using the computer they solved the problem.

他們利用了計算機解決了那個難題。

5. I wish I could go to the seaside.

但愿今天能去海邊就好了。

I wish(that)…是表示“愿意”的交際英語，且表示不可能實現的愿望，可譯為“但愿…… ”，“……就好了”等。其后接的賓語從句要用虛擬語氣。若表示現在不能實現的愿望則用過去式，若表示過去未能實現的愿望則用過去完成時，若表示與將來事實可能相反的愿望則用would+動詞原型。

I wish it were spring all the year round. (表現在)

How I wish I had gone there with you!(表過去)

I wish he would try again. (表將來)

這里的雨水極少，每年平均(降水量)只有60毫米。

本句中的merely是“僅僅，只不過”的意思。e. g.

習慣搭配

語法

掌握好省略句的語法。

典型例題

【基礎題】

★例1

--Don't all speak at once!

________.

A．Each at a time. B．One by one time.

C．One for each time. D．One at a time.

導析：本句的意思是“不要所有的人同時說，每次一位”。解題的關鍵是抓住all...at once和答句中的固定搭配at at time(每一次)就能迎刃而解。

答案：D

★★例2

--Do you think it's going to rain over the weekend?

--__________.

A．I don't believe B．I don't believe it

C．I believe not so D．I believe not

導析：該句是考查交際英語中的簡略回答。如果補充完整，便是I don't believe that it is going to rain over the weekend.也是考查賓語從句的省略。類似的有：I don't think so.I think not; I hope so; I hope not; I'm afraid so／not.

答案:D

【易錯題】

★★例1Dr Black comes from either Oxford or Cambridge, I can't remember ___________.

A．where B．there C．which D．that

導析：本句的意思是“我不記得布萊克博士是從Oxford or Cambridge中哪一個來的”。本句補充完整是I can't remember which one he comes from.

答案：D

★★例2We _____ the work would complete, but it won't.

A．want B．expect C．wish D．hope

導析：動詞expect, wish和hope后都可以帶賓語從句，但只有wish后的賓語從句用虛擬語氣。根據but it won't的語境可以判斷出試題wish后的賓語從句表示的是將來不可能實現的愿望。賓語從句的謂語如果是“would+動詞原形”，則是一種常用的希望。答案：C

【創新題】

★★例

--How are you getting on with your study?

--All goes well as __________.

A．to be planned B．being planned

C．planned D．planning

導析：在從屬連詞as引導的比較狀語從句中常用省略，答語中的as 后省略了it(study)is。例如：Fill in the form as(you are)instructed.按照要求填寫了表格。答案：C

【名校模擬題與高考題】

★★★例1(2002年，上海春季)How I wish every family __________ a large house with a beautiful garden!

A．has B．had C．will have D．had had

導析：該題考查的是wish后面從句的時態。句子的意思是“要是家家都有帶花園的房子該多好啊!”很明顯，主語表示的是現在的愿望。與現在事實相反時從句用過去時。答案：B

★★例2___________it rain tomorrow, you would have to put off the visit to the Yangpu Bridge.

A．Were B．Should C．Would D．Will

導析：Should位于句首時，省略了if，屬于虛擬語氣條件從句中的省略。had和were也可以放在句首。答案：B

【有關"Unit 16 The Sea" 的教學設計】

教學設計1. g2u16 The Sea 教案

學習目標：

Ⅰ. 詞匯學習

四會單詞和詞組：sailor , do well , make up one’s mind , bathe , time ( vt .) , spring , beg , beg one’s pardon , captain , depth , merely , huge , construction

三會單詞和詞組：seaside , beach , dive , navy , drown , come up , vast , surface , solid , various , variety , float , the Dead Sea , partly , on average , pole , the South Pole , huge , at a time , occur , treasure , voyage , load , cycle , kg = kilogram(me) , the Atlantic = the Atlantic Ocean

Ⅱ. 交際英語

道歉和遺憾

一般來說，中國人喜歡反復強調自己的謙意，并喜歡用“非常抱歉”、“深表歉意”等表示程度傾向的語句，而英美人士則不同，對于因客觀原因而造成的過失或差錯，則不必主動工過分向對方表示歉意。如一定要向對方道歉，說聲 sorry 即可，一般不用 very , terribly , truly 等表示程度的詞。因為在美國，過分的道歉或自責反而顯得不太誠懇，令人感到虛假或另有用心。

Some useful expressions：

1 . Sorry / Pardon / I'm sorry .

2 . I'm sorry for/about…

3 . I'm sorry to do sth . / I'm sorry to have done sth…

4 . Excuse me ( for… )

5 . be afraid that…

6 . What a pity/shame !

7 . It's a pity that…

8. That's all right . /It doesn't matter . /That's nothing .

9 . That's OK . /It's quite all right . /Never mind . /No trouble at all . / That's not your fault .

交際示范：

( A is late for a birthday party ) .

A : Come in , Mr Smith . Nice to see you .

B : Nice to see you too . I'm very sorry to be late . ( I'm sorry to have kept you waiting . )

A : It doesn't matter . We're glad you could come .

B : I didn't quite remember the number of your house , so it took me a long time to find your house .

【關于“Unit 16 The Sea”的常見問題】

常見問題1: 高二英語 Uint 16 The sea

問題：

We don‘t visit Tom _____ .

A.as many as we used to B.an many as we were used to

C.as much as we used to D.as much as we were used to

解答:

本題考點是兩個：一是 used to 同 be used to 的區別；另一個是 many 和 much 的區別。 ( 1 ) used to 表示“過去經�；蚍磸偷膭幼鳌�；used to do sth . 表示“過去常做某事”，它只有過去時的形式。be used to 表示“習慣于……”，to 是介詞，后接名詞或動名詞，be 可用于各種時態。 ( 2 ) much 和 many 都表示“多”，many 可修飾或代替可數名詞； much 可修飾代替不可數名詞，還可以修飾動詞、形容詞比較級。as much as 多作狀語，本句中修飾動詞 visit，因此答案是 C。

常見問題2: 高二英語 Uint 16 The sea

問題：

A.How many times B.How often

C.How long D.How much time

解答:

根據對話內容，可知是問：“你曾去過長城多少次 ? ”考點是幾個疑問詞的區別。how long ( 多久 ) ，是用于對一段時間提問，多由 for 引導；how often ( 多久一次 ) ，是針對“once a week ( month ) ”等進行提問的。本題重點是 time 的用法。time 單數 ( 不可數 ) 表示時間，“how much time”表示“多少時間”；times 復數 ( 可數 ) ，可表示“次數、倍數、時代”等。本題答語是“only once” ( 只有一次 ) ，答案理應是A。

問題：

So tired ____ after getting the thief down on the floor that he ____ say a word .

A.was my brother ; could hardly

B.did my brother ; could hardly

C.was my brother ; wouldn’t hardly

D.my brother was ; could hardly

解答:

( 1 ) hardly 是否定副詞，could hardly 意指“幾科不能”，符合題意，可先排除 C；( 2 ) 從句子結構看，本句意在強調“tired”，tired 是形容詞，應作表語，強調表語時，表語放在句首，主語和動詞要用倒裝語序，為此，再排除 D；在系表結構中，動詞用 be 動詞而不用 did，因此答案是 A。

- No , I haven‘t . I’m anxious to know ____ .

A.how is he getting along

解答:

根據語境，空白處應填賓語從句，賓語從句用陳述句語序，故可先排除A，C；be getting along ( on ) 表示“進展 ( 情況 ) 如何”，常與 how 連用，因此，答案是 B。
