重點語法：短語動詞

1. 現代英語中，動詞之后加介詞或副詞構成短語，表達一種特定的含義，稱為短語動詞。短語動詞如果被拆開，則不能表達這種特定的含義。要把這些習慣用法看作一個整體。

如：come

come out

come in

come up with

2. 短語動詞也有及物的和不及物的分別，及物的短語動詞必須接賓語，不及物的短語動詞則不需要接賓語。如：

look for 是及物短語動詞，look out是不及物短語動詞。

注意：有的短語動詞可能有兩種或更多不同的意思，有些是及物動詞，有些是不及物動詞。

如：take off意為“拿掉”，是及物動詞。

take off意為“起飛”，是不及物動詞。

3. 及物短語動詞所帶賓語的位置

（1）名詞作賓語時，一般放在短語動詞之后，有的也放在中間。

e.g. He took off his coat. / He took his coat off.

（2）代詞作賓語時，大多數情況下，放在短語動詞的中間，有時放在后邊。

e .g. He took it off. 他把它脫掉了。

I’m looking for them. 我正在找他們。

I will give this old coat away. (give away this old coat / give it away.)

我將把這件舊外衣送掉。

4. 認真背誦重點詞組中涉及到的常見短語動詞，掌握其用法。例如：

put off the plan -- put it off

give away the bike -- give it away

cheer up the kid -- cheer him/her up

hand out the books -- hand them out

重點、難點講解：

1. - I’d like to help homeless people.

- You could give out food at the food bank.

（1）homeless adj. 無家的、無家可歸的

-less是否定后綴，通常構成形容詞。

英語中有詞根、前綴、后綴。記住這些對詞匯的積累大有幫助。如：

home (n.) ---- homeless (adj.) forget (v.) ---- forgetful (adj.)

care (v.) ---- careful (adj.) / careless (adj.) thank (v.) ---- thankful (adj.) / thankless (adj.)

help (v.) ---- helpful (adj.) / helpless (adj.) hope (v.) ---- hopeful (adj.) / hopeless (adj.)

（2）Word Note: What is a food bank?

A food bank is a place where you can bring all kinds of food (like cans of soup, peanut butter, baby food) to help other people who are hungry. People can come to the food bank to get food to help feed their families. What else do you think you could bring to the food bank? Do you know what a food bank looks like?

（3）could用法總結：

I. could 是can的過去式，意思是“能夠”。

e.g. He could speak English when he was a child.他小時就能說英語了。

II. 用于現在時，比can更委婉，或表示虛擬語氣。

e.g. Could I help you? 我能幫你做點什么？(比Can I help you?委婉)

e.g. If I could go, I should be glad.假如我能去，那我會很高興。（表虛擬語氣）

III. could表示推測，意思是“大概，可能”，肯定性不大。

e.g. This book could be Mei’s. She studies French.這本書可能是梅的，她學法語。

IV. could 用于提出建議。

e.g. You could ask your parents for good ideas if you don’t know whether you should go to meet internet friends.

-What should I do when I don’t know how to go to some place in Beijing?

-You could go to the website “ Go2map” for help.

2. -I’d like to cheer up sick kids. 我愿意逗生病的孩子開心。 / I’d like to help kids with their schoolwork. 我愿意幫孩子們復習功課。

-You could volunteer in an after-school study program. 你可以在課外學習班做義工。

（1）cheer up sb. = make sb. happier; comfort 使某人振奮、快樂

e.g. Cheer up, boy!

The pleasant music can cheer you up when you’re in blue.

（2）volunteer (n.)：a person who performs or offers to perform a service of his or her own free will 志愿者：按他或她自己的自由意愿進行或要求進行服務的人

hospital volunteers 醫院志愿人員

volunteer firefighters 志愿消防員

volunteer tutoring 志愿導游

e.g. He wants to be a volunteer in a village school and help teach the students there.

Being volunteers is really a great job.

volunteer (v.) help people free of charge 做志愿工作

I could volunteer in 2008 Olympic Games.

He volunteers to help others.

volunteer.. to do sth .自愿做某事

e.g. These three students all volunteer their time to help other people.

這三個學生都自愿花時間來幫助別人。

Girl 2: No, we can’t put off making a plan. Clean-up Day is only two weeks from now.

Boy 2: You’re right, Sally. While we talk, I’ll write down all our ideas. Then we can decide which ideas are best.

Girl 1: Um…Well… we could put up signs.

Boy 2: That’s a good idea!

Girl 2: I’ll hand out advertisements after school.

Boy 1: OK. Great! And we could each call up ten people and ask them to come.

Boy 2: Hey, we’re coming up with a lot of good ideas, aren’t we?

（1）come up with: think of, find (a solution or an answer)

4. Section B: 2a/2b

Boy: Good morning.

Man: So, Jimmy, tell our listeners what you do.

Boy: Well, as you just said, I find or buy old bikes that nobody wants. Then I fix up the bikes and give them away to kids who don’t have enough money to buy their own bikes.

Man: That’s fantastic. What gave you the idea?

Boy: I guess I take after my father. He’s always helping people.

Man: Wow! Your parents must be proud of you.

Boy: I guess so. But now I’ve run out of money to buy old bikes.

Man: Oh, that’s too bad.

Boy: Yeah. I need to come up with some way of getting money or I’ll have to stop.

5. Not only do I feel good about helping other people, but I get to spending time doing what I love to do. 關于幫助別人，我不但感覺很好，而且我開始花時間做我喜歡做的事。

not only … but also… 不但…而且… (連接并列的兩個成分或內容)

（1）它可以連接句子的主語、謂語、表語、賓語等，強調but also引出的內容。當用來連接主語時，謂語應與最近的主語保持一致。如：

Not only I but he likes soccer.

（2）not only…but also…中的also可以省略。

e.g. I like not only soccer but (also) tennis.

（3）not only…but also… 是個并列連詞短語，連接謂語時，不能用not去構成否定句，更不能用縮寫形式。如：

He not only gave me some English books but also told me how to learn English.

不能寫成：He did not only gave me some English books but also told me how to learn English.

或 He didn’t only gave me some English books but also told me how to learn English.

（4）當Not only位于句首時，前一個分句倒裝，即謂語或部分謂語提到主語前面。并列主語時除外。

五. 閱讀理解。

(A)

Hundreds of years ago, life was much harder than it is today. People didn’t have modern machines. There was no modern medicine, either.

Life today has brought new problems. One of the biggest is pollution(污染). Water pollution has made our rivers and lakes dirty. It kills our fish and polluted our drinking water. Noise pollution makes us talk louder and become angry more easily. Air pollution is the most serious kind of pollution. It’s bad to all living things in the world.

Cars, planes and factories all pollute our air every day. Sometimes the polluted air is so thick that it is like a quilt over a city. This kind of quilt is called smog(煙霧).

Many countries are making rules to fight pollution. Factories must now clean their water before it is thrown away, they mustn’t blow dirty smoke into the air.

We need to do many other things. We can put waste things in the dustbin and not throw it on the ground. We can go to work by bus or with our friends in the same car. If there are fewer people driving, there will be less pollution.

Rules are not enough. Every person must help to fight pollution.

（B）World hunger

Most of us don’t think too much about world hunger. When we are hungry, we can always find something to eat- usually something delicious. But in many parts of the world –even in some rich countries – adults and children go to bed hungry every day. According to the World Hunger Program in Newport, Rhode Island, 780 million people in the world don’t get enough to eat. One out of every six babies in the world is born underweight and even worse, one out of every three children is underweight at age five.

There are two main causes of hunger – food “shortage” and food “poverty”. A food shortage happens when there isn’t enough food in an area to feed all the people that live there. This has happened recently in some African countries when there wasn’t enough rain for people to grow the food they needed. Sometimes a food shortage affects just one part of a country, and other times the entire country is affected. Food poverty is the cause of hunger when people don’t have enough money to buy food. There is plenty of food in the stores, but some people can’t afford to buy enough food, so they go hungry.

(a). 詞義連線。

1. underweight a. one person

2. shortage b. whole

3. entire c. have enough money

4. individual d. too small

5. afford e. not enough of something

(b). 完成表格。

2. The World Hunger Program offices are in ______________________________ (where?)

3. ___________________________ babies are underweight when they are born. (how many?)

5. A ___________________ happens when there is no food in an area for people to buy. (what?)

6. _______________ happens when some people don’t have money to buy enough food. (what?)
