Step II Grammar

T: Today we will learn grammar. First let’s recall some important concepts of sentence. We know a sentence mainly consists of subject and predicate, besides these; there are other elements, such as object and predicative

u Activity I (5minutes)

(Show a slide of two sentences: 1 I study English.2 I am a student.)

T: Look at these two sentences and then tell me which element do the underlined words belong to

S: They respectively act as subject, object and predicative

T: Here the subject, object and predicative are all acted by word. If these words substituted with sentence, it can be respectively called subject clause, object clause and predicative clause

T: Look at these three sentences then tell me what kind of clause they are.

(Show the three sentences on the slide:)

1. That he will marry her is certain.

2. He tells me that he likes dancing.

3.The trouble is that I lost the key.)

T: who can tell me the answers and why?

S1: The first sentence is subject clause, because it act as a subject

S2: The second sentence is object clause, because that clause is after the verb, and it function as an object

S3: The third sentence is predicative clause, because it is after the linking verb: be

T: Yes very good, these that clause are all called noun clause

u Activity II (11 minutes)

T: Today we will learn another noun clause, which called appositive clause. Look at this sentence.

(Write an appositive clause on the blackboard: The news that he won the first place is right)

T: Here that clause explains the meaning of the news. They refer the same thing, so this clause is called appositive clause. Besides the word “news”, appositive clause can also followed other abstract noun such as: fact, idea, hope, suggestion and so on

(Show the sentences on the slide: 1. He has to face the fact that she does not like him.2. The idea that the earth is square is wrong.3 I accept that the suggestion that I should get up early.)

(Then I will explain the sentences and translate them with students)

T: Until now we have met four kinds of noun clause. Now look at your book and turn to page 37 do the Grammar 1

(After 2 minutes I will ask students give the answers and translate them one by one.)

S1: The first sentence is appositive clause which means認(rèn)為炸魚炸薯?xiàng)l，大本鐘，倫敦塔代表英國的觀念已經(jīng)過時(shí)了

S2: The second sentence is appositive clause which means大不列顛有三個(gè)國家組成這一事實(shí)很多人都不知道

We expressed the hope (that) they had expressed.

S: The first sentence is appositive clause. The that clause is the content of the hope and explain it

S: The second sentence is attribute clause.

(While I explain the sentences, show them the slide of the differences between the appositive clause and attributive clause)

同位語從句定語從句

同位語從句與前面的名詞是同位關(guān)系，表示這個(gè)名詞的內(nèi)容定語從句語與它前面的名詞是所屬關(guān)系，對先行詞起修飾作用，表示“…的”

同位語從句中的連接詞that只起連接的作用不充當(dāng)句子成分定語從句中的連接詞that在從句中常做主語或賓語

同位語從句的that 一般不能省而定語從句中的關(guān)系代詞that，當(dāng)其在從句中做賓語時(shí)，常常可以省略

T: Now are you clear about the differences between appositive clause and attributive clause?

S: Maybe

T: Ok let’s see another two pairs of sentences, and tell me which is the appositive clause and which is attributive clause

u Activity II: Para.2 (8 minutes)

T: Paragraph 2 is about geography of British Isles. Do you remember where the British Isles is?

S: The British Isles lies off the west coast of Europe

T: Yes here the word “l(fā)ie” means 位于，坐落于. And the preposition “off” after it tells the relationship between the British Isles and the west coast of Europe. The word “l(fā)ie ”can be collocated with four position prepositions: off, to, on and in, we can write a sentence pattern with these words to tell the position relationship between A and B

(show the sentence pattern on the screen: A lies off/to/on/in the west /east…. of the B)

T: In the sentence pattern the position preposition “off” means A and B is separated by water. Take two sentences for example. How could you say 大不列顛島位于歐洲的西海岸，臺(tái)灣位于大陸的東南岸。（show the Chinese meaning on the screen）

S: I don’t know what does the phrase “in general”mean.

S: Yes

S: What does the phrase “as much as” mean?

T: It means: 多達(dá). For example “My father earn as much as 10,000 Yuan a month.”

u Activity IV: Para.4 (4minutes)

S: Yes

T: Here the word “ influence” means 影響。 For example “His father influence him greatly” and “I don’t influence your decision ”. Here “influence ” is a verb. It also can be a noun. If it acts as a noun , it can be used in a phrase “have (an) influence on / upon / over Sth” and means對…有影響.

S: No

u Activity VI: Para.6 (8minutes)

T: I think this paragraph isn’t difficult for you to understand. So read it yourself and tell me what kind of the fourth sentence belongs to and find a useful phrase in the last sentence.

T: Who can tell the type of the fourth sentence?

S: It is an emphatic sentence

T: Good, do you know the pattern of the emphatic sentence?

S: No

T: The pattern is: it is (was)+ the emphasized parts +that clause. Here is an ordinary sentence: “she was born in Wenzhou in 1986”. If you want to stress the place where she was born, how can you change the sentence? Who can?

S: It was in Wenzhou that she was born in 1986.

T: Right. And how to emphasize the date?

S: It was in 1986 that she was born in Wenzhou

T: Yes. Here is another sentence. “Miss Liu teaches us English ”. If emphasize the subject which Miss Liu teaches, how do you change the sentence?

S: It is English that Miss Liu teaches us.

T: Very good. If stress the teacher Miss Liu who teaches English, how do you change the sentence?

S: It is Miss Liu who teaches us English.

T: Now look at the last sentence, could you find the phrase?

S: Neither….Nor

T: Yes do you know the meaning?

S: It means 既不也不

T: Yes, now let’s translate the following three sentences together.

He neither likes blue nor redS: She neither loves you nor hates you

S: He walks neither fast nor slowly

T: Good

u Activity VII: Para.7 (5 minutes)

T: The last paragraph is still not very hard to understand. Let’s read it together and I will give you some language points

T: In the fourth line there is a phrase: “be considered as” whose meaning is被認(rèn)為…怎么樣. Now translate these two sentences

(1. 你的計(jì)劃被認(rèn)為是可行的.2.這首歌被認(rèn)為是2004年最好聽的歌. Show them on the screen)S1: Your plan is considered to be workable S2: This song is considered to be the most beautiful of 2004

T: Good and in the last sentences there is an important sentence pattern: “be of great value”. Do you know its meaning? (Show the sentence pattern on the screen)S: I guess it means be very valuable

T: Yes. So the pattern of this phrase is that be of N= be adj. That is to say the abstract noun after the preposition “of” has the same function of the adj of this noun. So could you tell me how to say be useful and be important in another way?

S1: be of use equals be useful

S2: be of importance equals be important.
