(you can also shake hands with the person.) nice to meet you. (only used when meeting someone for the first time.)but if we meet a stranger in the street, and we have no choice but to start a conversation with him, what shall we do to make both of you feel comfortable and at ease? how do you introduce yourself to them? greeting a stranger, e.g., before asking him/her questions. excuse me, (sir/madam) / hello! what else is important besides saying “excuse me, or hello”? (students give their own opinions, including body language, and facial expressions, also the mood, strategy)sentences for references: 1. i’m … from…. i’d like to ask you a few questions about your opinions about….2. my name is…. i’m from….. i’d like to ask you a few questions if you don’t mind. it’s for / to…. step 4 practice now that we know how to greet others. it’s time for us to practice a dialogue with our partner. here on the bb are some sentences for us to make up our dialogue. ss may begin their conversation as follows: s1: good morning/ afternoon. s2: good morning/ afternoon. s1: my name is … i’m a member of our school students’ union. i’d like to ask you a few questions if you don’t mind. s2: certainly not. what do you want to know? s1: your articles are often published in some newspapers and magazines. i know you were asked to write an article for our school magazine. could you please tell me what you’re going to talk about? s2: …. about the students’ interests and hobbies. s1: oh, that must be very interesting. which…like best? s2: …. s1: thank you. which…like least? more questions:1. how do you know what other students think about their interests and hobbies?2. how many students are interested in…?3. what about …? …remember you should greet him first and ask him/her the questions. the listeners should not look at your sentence, just listen and answer the questions. now let’s begin! (ask two or three pairs to act out their dialogue before the class.)step 5 skills building 3: analyzing statisticsso you know, we can get information or statistics by asking questions or doing interviews. here, as our homework, we also did an interview about our interests and hobbies. we’ve got the statistics we need. but that’s not the end of our task. we have the numbers, but what do all these numbers mean to us? what conclusions can we make from these numbers? and what should we do to improve some shortages, if there are any? what suggestions can we give to help with decisions? that’s the goal of our survey.look at this sentence: over 80 percent of the students in our school have an english-english dictionary.now analyse 80%. we can draw conclusions: an english-english dictionary is very useful. it is easy to get an english-english dictionary. (ss can draw more conclusions)after we draw conclusions from statistics, we have to make appropriate recommendations based on the conclusions. that is one of our major goals when conducting a survey. according to the conclusions we made above, we can make a recommendation: every student who is studying english should have an english-english dictionary. (ss give more recommendations.)here are some statistics gathered from a school survey about students’ hobbies and interests. analyse the statistics and draw at least three more conclusions. then make your recommendations. (see page 56 pie chart) (ss write down the sentences in the book. they can discuss in pairs.)(help the students to analyse the statistics and give conclusions and recommendations)conclusions: 1. playing sports is the most popular activity for students in the school.2. the second popular activity for ss in the school is surfing the internet.3. most ss in the school do not like reading.4. only a few students in the school like playing musical instruments.recommendations:1. the school should have more sports facilities.2. the school should find ways to arouse ss’ interests in reading.3. the school should guide students in surfing the internet.4. the school should take measures to make more ss become interested in playing musical instruments.this is our report about the survey, and it’s important we write a report after the survey.step 6 practice now let’s look at the statistics we made just now. let’s see what conclusions and recommendations we can make. are they the same with the ones in our book?(draw chart on ppt.) ss analyse the statistics in pairs and give conclusions first, then recommendations. conclusions: (ss write the sentences on the bb) recommendations: (ss write the sentences on the bb) (students discuss in pairs or groups. put the conclusions and recommendations on either end of the bb. ss can come to the bb and write down their answers without putting up their hands.)step 7 writing a report1. page 53, questionnaire. ss practice the interview in pairs, and get the answers. they can use the vocabulary on page 55.2. in groups of four. one of the students will be the boss. ask the rest of the members questions on page 55.3. page 57. suppose you are the boss of the best book club. here are some statistics gathered from the survey. try to analyse them and write down your report. practice in pairs before speaking before the class.

①圖表1中六項活動及所用的時間
②圖表2中一個數據反映的情況
chart 1 shows the daily average amount of time the students of the school spend on different after-class activities. the students put the most time—93 minutes—into their homework, and next in line is watching tv, which takes up 46 minutes. they put in about the same amount of time listening to music and working on the computer, 34 minutes and 30 minutes each. while 25 minutes is spent on sports, only 12 minutes goes into housework.
as is shown on chart 2, only 10% of the time is taken up with sports activities. i think the school should encourage the students to do more exercise after class. this way, they may be healthier and more energetic。

middle school students have some idea about their future jobs. the most striking contrast is in teaching: 30 percent of girls would like to become teachers while only 5 percent of boys want to do this job. 20 percent of boys want to do business and another 20 percent want to become lawyers while girls take up 15 percent in these two fields.
what boys like to do most is to become managers (30％) and the second largest group would like to be scientists (25％). besides teaching, the second choice for girls is to be scientists (20％) and managers (20％).the number is not small. girls also expect to show their ability in these two fields.

aunt ann was going to have a garage sale this saturday. mike was staying to help. he and his mom had collected various things which were useless to them: baseball gloves, camping articles, tools, handbags, old records, tapes, silver spoons, scarves...
譯文：
“我周一早上再見你！”邁克的媽媽透過車窗嚷道。
這周六安姨要搞一個宅前舊貨出售，邁克留在這兒幫忙。他和他媽媽收集了各種各樣對他們來說沒用的東西，如：棒球手套、野營物品、工具、手袋、舊唱片、磁帶、銀匙、圍巾等
知識點：1) have a garage sale
2) various things
3) called mike’s mom through the car window
through 通過, 穿過, 經過, 遍及, 貫穿, 以……, 經由…… 例如：
go through
walk through
drive through
through, along 和across 的區別：
(1) along 表示“沿著”，通常用于狹長的東西：
i saw him running along the road. 我看見他沿著這條路跑。
we walked along the river. 我們沿河散步。
(2) across 和 through 都可表示“橫過”或“穿過”，前者主要表示從某物的表面“橫過”，涉及“面”的概念；而后者則表示從某個空間內“穿過”，涉及“體”的概念：
he walked across the road carefully. 他小心地走過馬路。
he walked through the forest alone. 他獨自一人走過森林。
有時 across 表示“橫過”也可表示在“體”內進行，但此時它仍與through 有差別：前者表示從某個“體”的一端到另一端，而后者表示穿過兩端
he walked across the hall. 他從大廳的一端走到另一端。
he walked through the hall. 他穿過大廳。
2. “what’s the first thing we need to do?” asked mike.
“well, i think we could set up the tables. we’ll have to start pretty early tomorrow morning. people may come before we get ready.”

譯文：
邁克問：“我們需要干的第一件事是什么？”
“喔，我覺得我們該支起桌子，我們明天早上得很早開始，人們可能在咱們準備好前就來了。”
他倆一起支起了一張長桌子，把一些小的物品放在上面。他們還拉起了一根晾衣繩，將舊衣服掛在上面。然后，他們把所有物品拿到院子里。把這些東西分類并擺好， 花了他們好幾個小時的時間。當他們干完活時，天幾乎黑下來了。

“you’re right,” said aunt ann, “i’ve thought of the changes, but i’ve completely forgotten the poster. it would save us a lot of time answering questions. good thinking!”
譯文：
“邁克，你能再想想咱們忘了什么嗎？” 安姨問。
邁克想了想：“咱們是不是需要準備一些零錢找給顧客呀？另外，我覺得咱們需要制作一張海報，注明每樣物品的價格。”
“你說得對。”安姨說：“我倒是想到了零錢，但完全忘了海報的事。這能省去咱們好多回答問題的時間呢。想法不錯！”
知識點：1）think of
think，think of，think about，think over的區別和用法
think單獨使用時表示“思考”，接that賓語從句時意為“認為、覺得”。如：
he is thinking how to work out the problem.他在思考如何解這道題。
i think i’ll take it.我想我會買。
當think后面的賓語從句含有否定意義時，通常形式上否定 think，但意義上卻是否定賓語從句。如：
i don’t think it will rain.我認為不會下雨。
think of意為“考慮到、想到”，后常接代詞、名詞或動詞-ing形式；意為“認為”時，一般用于疑問句中，與what連用。如：
it’s good to think of the future.考慮到未來是對的。
he thought of a good plan.他想到一項好計劃。
如果問對方覺得怎樣，常用what…think of…? 這一句型
what do you think of the play？（＝how do you find /like /enjoy the play？）你覺得這部戲劇怎么樣？
think about，表示“考慮”，特別是考慮某一計劃是否可行，后接名詞、動名詞
或帶疑問詞的不定式。例如：
what are you thinking about?
i am thinking about how to make the poster.
2) think for a moment
3) save
n. 救球
vt. 解救, 挽救, 儲蓄, 保存, 節省, 保留
vi. 挽救, 節省, 救球 例如：
save up for a trip 為準備作一次旅行而把錢儲存起來
do not waste , save! 不要浪費，要節約！
children should learn to save. 孩子們應學會儲蓄。
need to save your work? 需要把你做的工作保存起來嗎？
4. the next morning, they got up early. aunt ann took the green and red sign “garage sale” out of the house. she went inside to cook breakfast while mike waited in the yard. she was right. soon came their first customer of the day, grandpa luis. he was looking for something that his grandson would like. finally he picked up some baseball cards and asked, “ these are 5 cents each, right?”
mike nodded, “ yes, grandpa.”
譯文：
第二天早上，他們起得很早。安姨把綠色和紅色的“宅前舊貨出售”標志拿出院子，然后回來做早飯，而邁克在院子等顧客。安姨說得對，很快就來了當天的第一位顧客—路易斯爺爺。他在找他孫子喜歡的東西，最后，他拿起一些棒球卡片問道：“這些是五美分一張嗎？”邁克點點頭：“是的，爺爺。”
“could i have this set for 1 dollar?”
why not? anyway, they were useless to mike and aunt ann.
when aunt ann came back to the yard with a plate of pancakes. mike grinned at her. three sales already! a good start for today.
“我能一美金買一套嗎？”
為什么不呢？不管怎樣，它們對邁克和安姨來說都是沒有用的了。
當安姨拿著一盤煎餅回到院子時，邁克朝她微笑著。已經有三筆交易了。這對于今天來說是一個美好的開始。
知識點：
grin at sb. 沖某人咧嘴笑
laugh at sb. 嘲笑某人
smile at sb. 沖某人微笑
why not? 為什么不呢？
a le 篇13
m2u1 grammar and usage

1、 構成 have/has done

2） the boy is happy. he has caught a bird.
ii表示過去開始的動作一直延續到現在或者還將持續下去。
1）i have not seen justin since last friday night.
2) daniel has lived in beijing since he came to china.
iii表示動作的確切時間不明確或不重要。此時下列詞匯經常和現在完成時連用：already, ever, never, for, just, lately/ recently, since, yet。
1） the boy has already come home.
2） i haven’t heard anything from him yet.
其中，for + 一段時間，since + 某個時間點。
e.g. we haven’t seen him for two days. we haven’t seen him since last monday.
iv表示到現在為止的一段時間內重復的動作。
1） some villagers say that they have seen ufos many times.
2） i have advised him to give up smoking many times, but he just won’t listen to me.
v 現在完成時還可用于下列句型中：
this/it is the best/ finest/ most interesting … + that- clause,
this/it is the first/ second… time + that- clause, that 從句中的謂語動詞一般用現在完成時。
it is/ has been a period of time since + 一般過去時
1） this is the best book that i have read.
2） it is the first time that i have seen the film.
3） it is/ has been a long time since i came to wuxi.
3、注意
1）現在完成時不和明確的表示時間的詞連用，如yesterday, last week, in 1976等。
2）表示短暫意義的動詞，如begin, leave, arrive, return, stop, open, go, come, die等，不能與表示一段時間的狀語連用。
* read the following sentences and say t or f .
(1) he has come to beijing since last year. f
(2) he has been here for three years. t
(3) he has joined the army for three years f
(4) he has been a solider for 3 years. t
(5) it is 3 years since he joined the army. t
(6) he has joined the army. t
二、 現在完成進行時
1、 構成 have/has been doing
e.g. i haven’t been sleeping well since i returned home.
2、用法
表示動作從過去開始一直延續到現在，可能剛剛停止，也可能仍然在進行。
1）-- sorry, i’m late. have you been waiting long?
-- yes. i have been waiting (wait) for an hour.
2) she is very tired. she has been working (work) all morning.

i have been learning english for three years.
she’s been playing tennis since she was eight.
this whole week, he has been training some new employees.
he has been smoking too much recently.
三、 現在完成時和現在完成進行時的比較
1、現在完成時表示到現在為止已經完成的動作，強調結果；而現在完成進行時強調動作的持續性，強調“一直”，往往表示動作仍未結束。
i have been reading this novel. 我一直在讀這本小說。（書不一定看完）
i have read two novels. 我已讀過兩本小說。（動作已完成）
i have been writing letters. 我一直都在寫信。
i have written three letters. 我已經寫完三封信了。

i have lived here since 1990. / i have been living here since 1990.
they have studied the problem for quite some time. / they have been studying the problem for quite some time.
3、有些動詞動詞本身表示一種持續的狀態，一般不用現在完成進行時，如be, know, love, remember, understand, see, like, last。
i’ve known him for many years.
they have not seen each other for a long time.
the war has lasted for a long time.

Was he in danger? If he were taken away by aliens, how would they treat him?
All the endings are acceptable.
3 Ask students to turn their attention to the questions in F. Let students do some speaking practice according to the sample.
Resources
1 Newspaper articles are often seen as shortened forms of news report that gives full information. The lead----- the first paragraph of a news story plays the most important part in the understanding of the whole story. It is usually a one- or two- sentence summary of the particular event being reported, because so much information are usually put into a small space, and some complex sentences are generally used in the first paragraph. The headline and first paragraph effectively summarize the story's content.
The teacher can encourage students to read English newspapers. There are several advantages of using a newspaper to improve our English. A newspaper is inexpensive, easily obtained and the materials are authentic. Besides, understanding the news stories rely on the students' knowledge of social and cultural experience. Newspapers mirror our national values, habits and preferences. Newspaper reading is more like the overall improvement of students' abilities than being simply informed of new information. Students will find time and efforts devoted to understanding the social and cultural materials rewarding.
2 Following are some newspaper activities the teacher can utilize in their teaching:
a Encourage students to read the newspaper daily. Ask them what articles they find interesting and read and discuss those articles with them.
b Read newspaper coverage of a major news story and watch the same story presented on television. Talk about the differences between reading newspapers and watching television news.
c Read the newspaper for issues that have some direct effect on students' families. Locate news stories and opinions in editorials, letters to the editor and editorial columns. Ask students which facts are most important and which opinions are closest to theirs.
d Review TV and movie schedules, discussing which shows and movies are appealing and why. Compare reviews with those written by media critics.
e Ask students to find persuasive letters to the editor. Identify and discuss the author's style and tone. Encourage students to respond with their own letters to the editor when they encounter ideas with which they disagree.
a le 篇15
descriptionin this section, students will be asked to talk about the following phenomena, including traces of ufo, real existences of yeti and the loch ness monster, reasons for building stonehenge and the great pyramid and disappearances of ships and planes in the bermuda. all these have a common characteristic, that is, no evidences or proofs have been provided to explain the mysterious phenomena. students are expected to make full use of resources and share their imaginative ideas with each other by participating in all the activities.suggested teaching proceduresl brainstorming1 ( before taking up the task)the teacher assigns students a task, that is, all of them are required to surf the net or refer to some reference books, in english or in chinese to get some information about ufo, yeti, the loch monster, bermuda, stonehenge and the great pyramid. the activity can be conducted like this:the topics we are going to deal with in our next period are not only very interesting and attractive, but a bit mysterious as well. they are beyond our knowledge. even the advanced science and technology of today cannot offer satisfactory answers, so i recommend if we’d like to discuss these topics, it is best for all of us to make preparations first, either by searching for information on the internet or looking up background information in some books. besides collecting information, you have to note down your answers. it’ll be more convenient for you to report back your answers if you do so.2 ( focusing on the pictures ) a ask students to read the instructions and focus on the six pictures and illustrations individually first. the teacher can arouse their interest by asking them the following questions: do the six pictures have something in common? what is it? (unexplained; no satisfactory answers; mysterious; no evidences…) can scientists explain these phenomena? how do you feel about them? are you a bit curious? b ask students to think of as many expressions as possible to answer the above questions, encourage them to make up sentences and report back their answers. the teacher can share the following sentences with students. they are mysterious because no satisfactory answers have been offered to explain their reasons. though these mysteries have puzzled people for a long time, people show great interest in them.people feel puzzled due to their mysteries.c ask students to report back the information they have collected. as students have been required to prepare for the topics, their answers might be various. the teacher can vary the activities according to students’ responses. if possible, some answers students provide can be used as a prompt for a class discussion. for example: teacher: what information have you got about ufo? student a: ... … … teacher: do you think student a’s introduction interesting? what about the information you’ve got? is there something different? student b: ……… this activity can be conducted flexibly.d ask students to have a discussion about the topics by exploring some other activities. in order to conduct them more conveniently, the teacher can arrange numbers from left to right, from top to bottom first. for example: (picture 1) have you ever read some reports about ufo in chinese? are you interested in it? is it really from another planet? what does ufo stand for? for what reasons do you think ufo visits our planet?(picture 2) where is himalayas? what’s the weather like there? why do some people make great efforts to climb it? (hobby; dream; challenge themselves; make discoveries; overcome …) yeti is reported to be half-man and half-beast, have you heard of it? do you think some climbers’ disappearance have some connections with yeti? (pictures3, 4 and 6) stonehenge and the great pyramid of egypt are both cultural relics. where is the great pyramid built, on the east coast of the nile or on the west of it? what are its reasons? do you think the great pyramid a wonder in the human history? how was the great pyramid built? i haven’t heard of stonehenge or the ness monster. they are a bit new to me. what about you? will you be interested in making discoveries about them when you grow up? (picture 5) while talking about picture 4, the teacher can show a map to the students and point to them clearly where florida and the bermuda florida are on the map. are there any monsters in these areas? why do ships or planes disappear in this area? do you think it is too mysterious? suppose there is a ship equipped with the latest scientific equipment and it can make contact with scientists on land at any time, do you think it will be possible to solve the mysteries? l sharing information1 pair students up first. let different pairs focus on different questions. if possible, the first question can be adapted easily like this:do you believe in ufos? what may be the explanations of ufos?—— aliens from space without a doubt
—— military test craft without a doubt
——some ufos are alien, some are test craft
—— ufos are evidence of human space travel
—— ufos are neither alien nor test craft
—— ufos don't existencourage students to express their agreements or disagreements about it.2 ask different pairs to summarize their answers and then report them back.sample answers1 like any other intelligent and rationale person, i have a firm belief in ufos. in fact, i have seen a few myself. ufo stands for unidentified flying object, that is, an object, apparently moving in the sky, that we cannot identify. however, if you ask me whether i believe spacecraft carrying visitors from outer space, i would say ‘no’. i do not believe it.2 the continent of antarctica was discovered in 1818. a map known as the 'piri reis' map, a genuine document made in constantinople in 1513, clearly shows the continent of antarctica. how could this have been possible if antarctica was not discovered until 300 years later? antarctica was supposed to have been covered by ice for the last million or so years, but samples taken from sediment deep beneath antarctica in 1949 revealed that great rivers had once flowed in antarctica until about 6000 years ago.3 i’m always interested in the stories of ufos and aliens. and i hope i will have the chance to meet one some day. if it really happens to me, i will ask questions such as ‘who or what are you?’ ‘where are you from?’ ‘how long does it take to travel from your place to our planet?’ i will try my best to communicate with them, discovering what their life is like and why they come to the earth. resources (picture 1) the following is a description from a witness: the light was travelling west to northeast. they were saying it then changed direction from west to southeast. there was no colour, just bright light like a large spotlight. at first my husband thought it was a helicopter with a spotlight, but there was no noise. it seemed to move in a slow, steady speed. from my perspective it changed direction at the last moment.’ for more information, you can surf the following web-site: ~geibdan/framemst.html (picture 2) the yeti has lived in the himalayas as a mystery for many years. known as "the rock living animal" in sherpa, and as "the abominable snowman" in the west, the sightings of yeti have been reported since the late 1800s. the following website gives you more information ; (picture 3) loch ness is a vast and beautiful body of water. although nessie was sighted as far back as the 6th century ad, it is the modern day sightings that have attracted the public imagination. for more information you can surf the following website : (picture 4) the huge three-sided section of the atlantic ocean, surrounded by bermuda, puerto rico and florida, did not receive its famous nickname until 1964, but reports of strange happenings there, or nearby, have been recorded for centuries. the following website tells you more: (picture 5) stonehenge is surely britain's greatest national icon, standing for mystery, power and endurance. its original purpose is unclear to us, but some have guessed that it was a temple made for the worship of ancient earth god or goddess. for more information, you can surf the following website: (picture 6) the great pyramid of khufu is a typical example of the knowledge and experience of all previous pyramids, and it is the only surviving member of the ancient seven wonders of the world. the following website tells you more:
