●To listen and speak about school life
Procedures
Warming up by learning new words
To start with, let’s first go to page 147 to go over the vocabulary for this unit. Read to the tape and try to learn off them by heart.
Warming up by learning about “should ﹢ be allowed to”
We shall first learn to use the structures: “should ﹢ be allowed to”. It is actually part of the passive uses of English.
Tense Subject Auxiliary Past
Participle
Singular Plural
Present The car/cars is are designed.
Present perfect The car/cars has been have been designed.
Past The car/cars was were designed.
Past perfect The car/cars had been had been designed.
Future The car/cars will be will be designed.
Future perfect The car/cars will have been will have been designed.
Present progressive The car/cars is being are being designed.
Past progressive The car/cars was being were being designed.
“should ﹢ be allowed to” can be used like this: He should be allowed to come. Animals should be allowed to live in the forest. Children should be allowed to watch TV at weekends.
1a Reading and circling
For practice of the “should ﹢ be allowed to” read the statements in the box on page 18 and circle A for agree or D disagree.
1b Listening and circling
Listen and circle “T” for true or “F” for false beside the statements in the box on page
18.
Tapescript
Woman:So, what are you doing this afternoon, Anna?
Girl:I’m going to the mall with John. He just got his driver’s license.
Woman:I’m sorry. You can’t go with John. I don’t think sixteen-year-olds should be allowed to drive. They aren’t serious enough at that age.
Girl:But I have to go to the mall. Gaby’s getting her ears pierced and I want to watch.
Woman:I don’t think sixteen-year-olds should be allowed to get their ears pierced. They might be sorry later.
Girl:I agree, but it’s fun to watch. Is it OK if we take the bus?
Woman:Well, I guess so.
Girl:Great! I want to buy a new blouse at the mall, too.
Woman:What kind are you going to buy? Maybe I should go with you.
Girl:Aw, Mom. I’m not a child. I think teenagers should be allowed to choose their own clothes.
Woman:Well, I just want to be sure you get something nice.
Now try to copy the expressions from the listening tapescript on the blackboard into your notebook.

Closing down by reciting a kid poem
Another kid's poem
There is nothing under the bed
Or on your closet floor,
The monster is inside your head
Don't worry anymore.
It'll be there every night
In your dreams to give you fright
Every time you turn off the light
As long as you believe it.
There is no monster on the stairs
Nor anywhere down the hall
This old house just settles at night
You hear the creaks, that's all
You think you see a dragon peek
Through the window with a fang-ed beak
And that's why you can't go to sleep
As long as you believe it.
Mama loves you, daddy, too
And you will grow up tall
Nothing's going to happen to you
We'll take care of it all.
You will be a fine young man
A brave little boy who never ran
Whatever you want to do, you can
As long as you believe it.
So listen to me now, you pooh
It's off to sleep right now with you.
Daddy knows what you can do
As long as you believe it.

SELF CHECK
1 Filling in blanks
To test your study this week you are to fill in each blank on page 23 with a correct word given. Change the form if it is necessary.
2 Reading and writing
You are going to read the article on page 23 first and then write a letter to the editor agreeing or disagreeing. Explain your reasons.
While you are reading cut the sentences into thought groups and underline the expressions.
3. Helping and learning
At our school, we sometimes have a special day/ to help others. Last year/ we went to an old people’s home/ and sang songs/ and performed a play /for them. The old people were very happy. We should be allowed/ to take time/ to do things/ like that/ more often. For example, we should visit primary schools/ and help teach young students. I want to be a teacher/ when I'm older/ so it would be a great experience/ for me. Other students would like to do other jobs. For example, my friend Tian Ge wants/ to write for a newspaper. She should be allowed/ to volunteer/ at the newspaper office/ once a week. On Friday afternoons, many students are sleepy/ after a long week of classes. Some students should be allowed/ to have Friday afternoons off/ to volunteer and help others.
Dear Editor,
I would like to reply to the article “Helping and Learning” in your last newspaper. I agree with some ideas and disagree with others.
The article said that students should be allowed to go to an old people’s home and sing songs and perform a play for them. That is very good for us. We should be allowed to take time to do things like that more often. We should be allowed to visit primary schools and help teach young students.
Your article said that helping teach young students would be a great experience for us. I disagree with you on that. Some of us would like to do other jobs than teaching in the future. So helping teach young students at primary schools would be a waste of time for them. For example, my friend Tian Ge wants for a newspaper. People like her should be allowed to volunteer at the newspaper office more often. You said also that students should be allowed to have sleepy Friday afternoons off to volunteer and help others. I do not agree with you on that. We have worked the whole working days. On Friday afternoons we have to take a rest first. We need time to relax ourselves first and then we can do some volunteering work helping others.
Sincerely yours,
John F. Ken
Just for fun
To end this busy period we shall take time to learn and read aloud an English poem for kids.
My Feet
My feet, my feet,
I love my feet.
I think they're great,
I think they're neat.
They're pretty, pink,
and picturesque.
They look so perfect
on my desk.
Unfortunately,
sad to tell,
they also have
a funny smell.
So though I'm fast,
and though I'm fleet,
and though at sports
I can't be beat,
no team will pick
me to compete,
because they always
smell defeat.
--Kenn Nesbitt
Reading: Should I be allowed to make my own decisions?
Before you read, go over the new words for this part on 148.
While you read, listen to the recording and underline all the expressions.
Many teenagers have hobbies. But sometimes these hobbies can get in the way of schoolwork, and parents might worry about their child's success at school. Teenagers often think they should be allowed to practice their hobbies as much as they want. Do you agree?
Liu Yu, a fifteen-year-old from Shandong, is a running star. He is in his school running team, and has always wanted to be a professional athlete. However, his parents won't allow him to train as much as he would like to. “Of course we want to see Liu Yu achieve his dreams,” says Mr Liu, “and we know how much he loves running. That's great, and my wife and I watched him in every one of his races. We have nothing against running! But we do think that our son needs to be realistic. Now he is getting older, he needs to think about what will happen if he doesn't become a professional runner in the end.”
Liu Yu doesn't really agree. “Well, I think I should be allowed to make decisions for myself,” he says. “ My parents have always taught me the importance of working hard and not just to do what I enjoy. I understand this. But I'm serious about running. Being a professional runner is the only thing I have ever wanted to do.”
Mr and Mrs Liu believe that Liu Yu should study hard in the evenings, and so they don't allow him to practice running on school nights. “I know this might seem strict,” says Mrs Liu, “but we think we're doing the right thing. He has to understand that very few people can become professional athletes. It's a very difficult dream to achieve. We don't allow him to practice every day because we think he needs to spend time on his homework.”
But Liu Yu still doesn't agree. “I know my parents care about me,” he says. “But they are always talking about what will happen if I don't succeed. But I will succeed! I think I should be allowed to make this decision myself. Only then will I have a chance of achieving my dream.”
After you read, read aloud the text again, to yourself, or to the tape and copy down all the expressions, too.
Part 2: Teaching Resources(第二部分:教学资源)
The Trouble with Teenagers
People now care more about what teenagers are thinking about and feeling because they know there are hard moments in the life of teenagers.
Varieties of troubles are seriously puzzling teenagers, such as hard study, the gap between parents and kids, relationship between themselves and their classmates, teachers and friends.
Among them, the problem of ”the generation gap“ has become more and more obvious. The argument on this is widely spread. Different people hold different views. But we cannot fail to admit the fact that there are no hearts as delicate as those of teenagers, as everything is happening to them for the first time. Teenagers are certainly different from adults in many ways. They don't know the right way in which they can make everyone happy and satisfied. They are certainly lack of experience. That's why parents are always complaining about their being misunderstood. They say, they love their kids so much as to do everything for them. Is that the true love their children want? No, teenagers say, the true love which they long for should contain courage, correct guide and support instead of endless complaints about marks, marks, marks and strong pressure. So the teenagers are now even said to have been leading a harder life.
The trouble with teenagers is that they haven't learned how to be controlled. Living life right down the middle, with all its attendant landmines, is all they know. It hasn't occurred to them to run in a zigzag pattern.
They are more emotional than people think. If something serious happens to them, they will be deeply hurt. You can always hear the voice from a teenager that they haven't learned enough how to appear to be fine.
The adults have recognized that they should show more care for the teenagers, especially their school life. Teenagers have their own special way of thinking.
I have also got my own troubles. My grandpa passed away in September last year, which has greatly changed my life. He was even one of my best friends ever since I was born. He lived with my family for the past 18 years, the happiest time in his eyes. I have never admitted his death as a fact till now.
Things which happened between us have come to my mind. All over again, I felt those powerful losses crisscrossing my own heart, and I know that when you say goodbye to a beloved grandparent, you say goodbye to something happy, something young in yourself. And that something never really returns and the pain never really goes away.
No matter how hard a life the teenagers are leading, they will forever stand still and march forward straight and bravely.

一学期已经过去,回望自己的教学,深深感到存在着很多的问题和不足,下一个学期就是九年级的复习冲刺阶段,时间紧,任务重,为了为下学期的综合复习做好充分的准备,我对本学期的英语教学工作从学生和课堂教学等方面进行反思和总结,以便更好的做好下学期的复习工作。
一、课堂教学中存在问题及反思
(一)存在的问题
本学期由于是新接手的班级,学生的情况不是十分了解,他们的英语基础如何,在后来的教学中才慢慢的显现出来。我在自己的课堂中总感觉学生不能适应自己的教学方式:学生上课回答问题不积极,参与教学活动的积极性不高。只是一味的听老师讲和做笔记。听课效率不高。经分析,原因是自己上课方式与学生以前的老师的教学方式不一样,学生不能适应;课堂上我用的英语过多,语速过快,学生跟不上、听不懂。而自己也没有很好的了解学生的实际情况,学生不回答问题或不参与教学活动,只是一味的埋怨和批评,致使学生上课更不敢回答问题,生怕回答错了以后老师会不高兴。
(二)课后反思
1、教师要有课堂效益意识。有效的媒体手段有助于课堂容量、密度和速度的提高。不但可以活跃课堂,更能提高学生的参与面,能有效的吸引并集中学生的学习注意,从而最终提高学习的听课效益;自己正好缺乏这方面的运用;其次,课堂效益还体现在如何设计教学。课堂设计要有助于学生在课堂上积极参与,有助于他们有效内化知识与信息,复习过程中要重视学习方法的指导,在教学中恰当地渗透中考的信息,拓宽教学内容。
2、英语课堂上教师应及时有效获取学情反馈,有效地进行课前回顾,课堂小结等环节的落实。制定激励性的英语学习效果评价制度,对学生的听课、作业、笔记等方面进行跟踪,及时了解学生的学习、复习情况,以便在课堂教学过程中做出针对性的调整。
3、注重课堂教学效率的提高,要切实抓好备课这一环节,即备课要精,练习要精,作业要精。及时调整教学方法,优化教学过程。在课堂教学中强调基础知识的学习。
4、要强化分层次教学与辅导,通过分层次教学和辅导提升学生的成绩,从方法上,要抓住学生学习的薄弱点,区别不同情况,有针对性辅导。从策略上,加强学生实际问题的研究,做到缺什么、补什么,从对象上,要重点关注学科明显薄弱的学生,采用教师定学生、师生结对、辅导等有效形式使学生随时能得到。
二、学生英语学习中存在的问题
(一)存在问题
1、学生对英语学习缺乏兴趣、自信心和学习动力;在英语课堂上不积极参与,缺少主动发言的热情或根本不愿意发言;另外,相当一部分学生在听新课时跟不上老师的节奏或不能理解教师相对较快的指示语。
2、学生对英语课堂知识的掌握不实在、理解不全面,课外花的冤枉时间多。大部分学生对书本知识不够重视,找不到英语学科复习的有效载体,不能有效的利用课本,适时地回归课本,英语复习缺乏系统性,英语学习缺乏主动性。
3、部分学生缺少教师明确的指导,在复习时缺乏系统安排和科学计划,或者学习和复习没有个性化特点, 导致学习效果不明显。
(二)课后反思
基于以上情况,我认为作为学生中考的把关者,首先要有正确地意识,应充分认识到:一节课有没有效益,并不是指教师有没有教完内容或教得认真不认真,而是指学生有没有学到什么或学生学得好不好。如果学生不想学或学了没有收获,即使教师教得很辛苦也是无效教学;或者学生学得很辛苦,却没有得到应有的发展,也是无效或低效教学。
1、英语教学和其他学科一样,有严谨的系统性和连贯性。
学生在七、八年级所获得的语言技能,能否在初三年级得到继续发展,是防止分化的又一个问题。这就给教师提出了更高的要求,即力求把教学搞“实”、搞“活”。所谓“实”就是讲究实际效果,把课程标准化为具体的要求,落实到教和学上,对每课时的教学计划逐项落实。课堂上,少讲空话,多做实事,精讲多练,以学生为主;对每个单元进行考查、总结,分析存在问题,及时补缺补差,帮助学生过关。平时作业或测验得到好成绩或有进步的,一定在班上进行表扬,给予肯定;对作业错漏较多的当面批改,及时订正。所谓“活”就是侧重知识的活用训练,把外语课由“讲演课”变成“实践课”。采用任务型的教学方法,在既紧张而又活泼的气氛中学习英语,学生在情景中大量实践,用已知的学习未知的,很容易掌握所学内容。英语和其它功课一样,需要多练多做。
2、良好的师生关系对培养学生的兴趣大有帮助。
我以前上课总希望学生能跟上老师的节奏和步伐,学生做不到是就容易冲动、发火,而使课堂气氛显得十分沉闷。因此,我将在今后的教学中注意控制自己的情绪,关心学生,尤其差生,同他们交朋友,不歧视他们,不动辄呵斥他们,鼓励他们的学习自信心和学习热情。让他们在自信中学习,在快乐中进步。
新课程改革不是纸上谈兵,必须要与实践相结合,今后我要努力学习,积极进取,积极参与课程改革,在课改中不断学习,不断实践,不断反思。
3、培养良好的英语学习习惯。
首先,要培养学生良好的学习习惯,课前多预习,课堂45分钟让学生集中注意力听讲,把老师讲的内容真正听懂。不是似懂非懂。课后认真完成配套练习,不懂的地方,多向老师或成绩好的学生请教。其次,学生学习要主次分明,主要学科课后时间分配相应的因当多一些,特别是对英语学科,因为他毕竟不是语文。基础不打好,以后想提高也难。第三,要灵活掌握学过的知识点,学习要讲究方法,举一反三,融会贯通,只有这样,学生才能把所学的知识串联起来,不容易忘记。
总之,要让学生明白,学习英语不是一天两天的事,是要靠平时慢慢积累起来的。我也会在今后的工作中,多向其他英语教师请教,逐步改进自己的课堂教学模式。让自己的课堂成为学生学习英语的一片乐土,帮助他们不断提高成绩和运用英语的能力。
新目标九年级英语上册教学工作计划
新学期,新面貌。在学校领导的大力信任和支持下,本学期我有幸担任九年级101和102班的英语教学工作,为了更好的完成教学工作,现将本学期计划安排如下:
一 、教材分析。
本册教材以“英语课程标准”为宗旨,适应新课程改革的需要,面向全体学生,提高学生的人文素养,增强实践能力和创新精深。正确把握英语学科特点,积极倡导任务型教学摸式。培养学生积极地情感态度和正确的人生价值观,提高学生综合素质为学生全面发展和终身发展奠定基础。学生应有较明确的英语学习动机和积极主动的学习态度。能听懂教师对有关熟悉话题的陈述并能参与讨论。能读供七至九年级学生阅读的简单读物和报纸杂志,克服生词障碍,理解大意。能根据阅读目的运用适当的阅读策略。能与他人合作,解决问题并报告结果,共同完成学习任务。能在学习中互相帮助,克服困难。能合理计划和安排学习任务,积极探索适合自己的学习方法。在学习和日常交际中能注意到中外文化的差异。
二、本册教材重难点分析。
《新目标英语》九年级,全书共有十五个单元,另三个复习单元。本学期学习十个单元及二个复习单元。本教材各单元话题灵活,贴近生活实际。同时每个单元后都提供了一篇阅读文章,用以训练学生的阅读能力,扩大学生的阅读量。课本增加了读写训练的比重,以便于听说读写的全面训练。其内容主要反映了学生的日常学习和生活。课本设计了中外学生同校学习的情景,便于介绍英语国家的风俗习惯和文化。题材范围更广,除了学生的学校生活和家庭生活,还反映了学生的校外活动、劳动、卫生保健、体育运动、节日、尊师爱生、团结友爱、助人为乐的道德风尚。
三、教学目标。
针对本年级的实际情况,我制定了以下几方面的教学目标:
1、语言技能:
(1)听:能听懂课文大致内容;能抓住简单语段中的观点;
(2)说:能使用恰当的语调和节奏表达课文大意;能经过准备就一般话题作短暂表达
(3)读:能理解阅读材料中不同的观点和态度; 能识别不同文体的特征;能通过分析句子结构理解难句和长句;
(4)写:能简单写出连贯且结构较完整的句子, 能默写课文;能在写作文中基本做到文体较规范、语句较通顺;
2、语言知识:
(1)语音:逐步做到语音、语调自然、得体;根据语音辨别和书写不太熟悉的单词或简单语句。
(2)词汇:运用词汇描述比较复杂的事物、行为和特征,说明概念等;尽可能学会使用规定的习惯用语或固定搭配。
3、语法:进一步掌握描述时间、地点、方位的表达方式;进一步理解、掌握比较人、物体及事物的'表达方式;使用适当的语言形式进行描述和表达观点、态度、情感等;学习、掌握基本语篇知识并根据特定目的有效地组织信息。
4、功能:掌握询问信息、谈论物件,表示否定,表示不肯定,表示发生在某一过去时间之前的行为。灵活运用已经学过的常用功能项目,进一步学习并掌握如何描写与分类,描写物体,和叙述等语言功能项目;恰当理解和表达义务、道歉和应答,忠告等交际功能
四、学情简要分析。
我任教九年级2个班英语。从整体情况来看,普遍学生英语基础较差,兴趣不高,甚至有部分学生的听说读写能力还不够小学三年级水平,所以在课堂教学时,出现有学生不守课堂规则,不愿听课、睡觉或是做与课堂无关事情的现象,难以形成英语学习氛围。有少部分学生基础较好,自制能力较强,能认真听课,按老师要求完成各项任务。总的来说,这两个班的英语教学具有挑战性,需要耗费不少时间和精力。
本班课堂学习积极性较高,回答问题较积极,绝大多数同学能做到自觉完成作业、自觉背诵课文。受学习态度、风气的影响,刻苦学习之风渐渐稀薄,轻浮之风开始产生,很多学生上课不认真,课后死记硬背,当然有大部分学生还是劳逸结合,掌握了科学的学习方法。从学生成绩来看,存在明显不平衡。少数优生优势不明显,差生面较广,培尖补差任务重。学生受当今社会环境影响,厌学情绪严重。
五、提高教学质量的措施及教改措施。
1、认真专研教材和课标,精心备课,认真上好每一堂课。确定每堂课的基础内容,预备内容和拓展内容,满足ABC类不同层次学生的不同需求。
2、充分利用现有的现代化教学设备,加强直观教学,提高课堂效率。
3、多与学生沟通,了解学生学习状况和需求,及时改进教学中存在的问题和不足。
4、积极开展丰富多彩的英语活动,提高学生兴趣。如英语演讲比赛、单词听写比赛、朗读比赛、英语手抄报比赛、学唱英文歌曲,课前五分钟活动等。
5、注重个别辅导,在面向全体学生的基础上,培优补差。
A类学生:课堂上要求能回答较难提问,思考问题积极,教学任务能当堂完成,课后要求阅读一定量课外读物,考试时要求失分不大。
B类学生:加强双基教学,多鼓励多表扬,使他们爱好语文,并且用抓两头促中间的办法使他们时时有危机感。要求能较好地完成教学任务,能回答上课提出的稍难问题。
C类学生:教学中多关心、多爱护他们,平时与他们多进行谈话,让他们认识到英语学科的重要性,平时对他们要求严格但要

名词可以分为专有名词和普通名词,专有名词是某个(些)人,地方,机构等专有的名称,如Beijing,China等。普通名词是一类人或东西或是一个抽象概念的名词,如:book,sadness等。普通名词又可分为下面四类:
1)个体名词:表示某类人或东西中的个体,如:gun。
2)集体名词:表示若干个个体组成的集合体,如:family。
3)物质名词:表示无法分为个体的实物,如:air。
4)抽象名词:表示动作、状态、品质、感情等抽象概念,如:work。
个体名词和集体名词可以用数目来计算,称为可数名词,物质名词和抽象名词一般无法用数目计算,称为不可数名词。归纳一下,名词的分类可以下图表示:
名词 专有名词 不可数名词
普通名词 物质名词
抽象名词
集体名词
可数名词
个体名词
1.1 名词复数的规则变化
情况 构成方法 读音 例词
一般情况 加 -s 清辅音后读/s/ map-maps
浊辅音和元音后读 /z/ bag-bags /car-cars
以s, sh, ch, x等结尾 加 -es 读 /iz/ bus-buses/ watch-watches
以ce, se, ze,等结尾 加 -s 读 /iz/ license-licenses
以辅音字母+y结尾 变y 为i再加es 读 /z/ baby---babies
1.2 其它名词复数的规则变化
1) 以y结尾的专有名词,或元音字母+y 结尾的名词变复数时,直接加s变复数。例如:
two Marys the Henrys
monkey---monkeys holiday---holidays
2) 以o 结尾的名词,变复数时:
a. 加s,如: photo---photos piano---pianos
radio---radios zoo---zoos;
b. 加es,如:potato--potatoes tomato--tomatoes
c. 上述a和b两种方法均可,如zero---zeros / zeroes。
3) 以f或fe 结尾的名词变复数时:

c. 上述a和b两种方法均可,如handkerchief: handkerchiefs / handkerchieves。
1.3 名词复数的不规则变化
1) child---children foot---feet tooth---teeth
mouse---mice man---men woman---women
注意:由一个词加 man 或 woman构成的合成词,其复数形式也是 -men 和-women,如an Englishman,two Englishmen。但German不是合成词,故复数形式为Germans;Bowman是姓,其复数是the Bowmans。
2) 单复同形,如deer,sheep,fish,Chinese,Japanese ,li,jin,yuan,two li,three mu,four jin等。但除人民币的元、角、分外,美元、英镑、法郎等都有复数形式。如:a dollar, two dollars; a meter, two meters。
3)集体名词,以单数形式出现,但实为复数。例如:
people police cattle 等本身就是复数,不能说 a people,a police,a cattle,但可以说a person,a policeman,a head of cattle, the English,the British,the French,the Chinese,the Japanese,the Swiss 等名词,表示国民总称时,作复数用,如The Chinese are industries and brave. 中国人民是勤劳勇敢的。
4) 以s结尾,仍为单数的名词,如:
a. maths,politics,physics等学科名词,一般是不可数名词,为单数。

3. 代词
代词是代替名词的词类。大多数代词具有名词和形容词的功能。英语中的代词,按其意义、特征及在句中的作用分为:人称代词、物主代词、指示代词、自身代词、相互代词、疑问代词、关系代词和不定代词八种。
一、人称代词是表示”我“、”你“、”他“、”她“、”它“、”我们“、”你们“、”他们“的词。人称代词有人称、数和格的变化,见下表:
数 单数 复数
格 主格 宾格 主格 宾格
第一人称 I me we us
第二人称 you you you you
第三人称 he him they them
she her they them
it it they them
例如:He is my friend. 他是我的朋友。
It's me. 是我。
二、物主代词是表示所有关系的代词,也可叫做代词所有格。物主代词分形容性物主代词和名词性物主代词两种,其人物和数的变化见下表。
数 单数 复数
人称 第一人称 第二人称 第三人称 第一人称 第二人称 第三人称
形容词性物主代词 my your his/her/its our your their
名词性物主代词 mine yours his/hers/its ours yours theirs
例如: I like his car. 我喜欢他的小汽车。
Our school is here,and theirs is there. 我们的学校在这儿,他们的在那儿。
三、指示代词表示”那个“、”这个“、”这些“、”那些“等指示概念的代词。指示代词有this,that,these,those等。
例如:That is a good idea. 那是个好主意。
四、表示”我自己“、”你自己“、”他自己“、”我们自己“、”你们自己“和”他们自己“等的代词,叫做自身代词,也称为
”反身代词“。
例如:She was talking to herself. 她自言自语。
五、表示相互关系的代词叫相互代词,有each other 和one another两组,但在运用中,这两组词没什么大的区别。
例如:They love each other. 他们彼此相爱。
六、不是指明代替任何特定名词的代词叫做不定代词。常见的不定代词有a11,both,each,every等,以及含有some-,any-,no-等的合成代词,如anybody, something,no one。这些不定代词大都可以代替名词和形容词,在句中作主语、宾语、表语和定语,但none和由some,any,no等构成的复合不定代词只能作主语、宾语或表语;every和no只能作定语。
例如:--- Do you have a car? --你有一辆小汽车吗?
--- Yes,I have one. --是的,我有一辆。
--- I don't know any of them. 他们,我一个也不认识。
七、疑问代词有who,whom,whose,what和which等。在句子中用来构成特殊疑问句。疑问代词都可用作连接代词,引导名词性从句(主语从句、宾语从句和表语从句)
例如:Tell me who he is. 告诉我他是谁。
八、关系代词有who,whom,whose,that,which,as等,可用作引导从句的关联词。它们在定语从句中可作主语、
表语、宾语、定语等;另一方面它们又代表主句中为定语从句所修饰的那个名词或代词(先行词)。
例如:He is the man whom you have been looking for. 他就是你要找的那个人。
3.1 人称代词的用法
1)人称代词的主格在句子中作主语或主语补语。例如:
John waited a while but eventually he went home. 约翰等了一会儿,最后他回家了。
John hoped the passenger would be Mary and indeed it was she. 约翰希望那位乘客是玛丽,还真是她。
说明:在复合句中,如果主句和从句主语相同,代词主语要用在从句中,名词主语用在主句中。例如:
When he arrived, John went straight to the bank. 约翰一到就直接去银行了。
2)人称代词的宾格在句子中作宾语或介词宾语,但在口语中也能作主语补语,第一人称在省略句中,还可以作主语。
例如: I saw her with them, at least, I thought it was her. 我看到她和他们在一起,至少我认为是她。(her做宾语,them做介词宾语,her做主语补语)
a. -- Who broke the vase? --谁打碎了花瓶?
b. -- Me. --我。(me做主语补语= It's me.)
说明:在上面两例句中,her和me分别作主语补语。现代英语中多用宾格,在正式文体中这里应为she和I。
3.2 人称代词之主、宾格的替换
1) 宾格代替主格
a.在简短对话中,当人称代词单独使用或在not 后,多用宾语。
---- I like English. --我喜欢英语。
---- Me too. --我也喜欢。
---- Have more wine? --再来点酒喝吗?
---- Not me. --我可不要了。
b.在表示比较的非正式的文体中,常用宾格代替主格。 但如果比较状语的谓语保留,则主语只能用主格。
He is taller than I/me.
He is taller than I am.
2) 主格代替宾格
a. 在介词but,except 后,有时可用主格代替宾格。
b. 在电话用语中常用主格。
---- I wish to speak to Mary. --我想和玛丽通话。
---- This is she. --我就是玛丽。
注意:在动词be 或to be 后的人称代词视其前面的名词或代词而定。
I thought it was she. 我以为是她。(主格----主格)
I thought it to be her. (宾格----宾格)
I was taken to be she. 我被当成了她。 (主格----主格)
They took me to be her. 他们把我当成了她。 (宾格----宾格)
3.3 代词的指代问题
1)不定代词 anybody,everybody,nobody,anyone, someone, everyone,no one, 及whoever和person在正式场合使用时,可用he, his, him代替。
例如: Nobody came, did he? 谁也?

Teresa Lopez
From Cali, Colombia Marc LeBlanc
From Lausanne, Swizerland
Where I’m from, we’re pretty relaxed about time. If you tell a friend you’re going to their house for dinner, it’s okay if you arrive a bit late. Spending time with family and friends is very important to us. We often just drop by our friends’ homes. We don’t usually have to make plans to meet our friends. Often we just walk around the town center, seeing as many of our friends as we can!
In Switzerland, it’s very important to be on time. We’re the land of watches, after all!If someone invites you to meet them at 4:00, you have to be there at 4:00. If you are even fifteen minutes late, your friend may get angry. Also, we never visit a friend’s house without calling first. We usually make plans to see friends. We usually plan to do something interesting, or go somewhere together.
And now you are supposed to fill in the chart.

Unit 4 What would you do?
Part 1: Teaching design (第一部分:教学设计)
Structures: Second conditional, Should for advice
Target language:
What would you do if you won a million dollars?
I’d give it to medical research.
I can’t sleep the night before an exam. What should I do?
If I were you, I’d take a long walk before going to bed.
Vocabulary: million, charity, pimple, confident, shirt, tie, medical research
Learning strategies: Matching, Listening for key words
SECTION A
Goals
●To learn to use Second conditional and Should for advice
●To listen and talk about imagined life
Procedures
Warming up by learning about Second conditional and Should for advice
The second conditional (also called conditional type 2) is a structure used for talking about unreal situations in the present or in the future. This page will explain how the second conditional is formed, and when to use it.
The structure of a second conditional sentence
Like a first conditional, a second conditional sentence consists of two clauses, an ”if“ clause and a main clause:
if clause main clause
If I had a million dollars, I would buy a big house.
If the ”if“ clause comes first, a comma is usually used. If the ”if" clause comes second, there is no need for a comma:
main clause if clause
I would buy a big house if I had a million dollars.
We use different verb forms in each part of a second conditional:
if clause if + subject + simple past verb*
main clause subject + would + verb
1a Talking about imaginary situations
What would you do if you had a lot of money?
If I had a lot of money, I would give it to charity.
If I had a lot of money, I would buy snacks.
If I had a lot of money, I would give it to Hope Project.
If I had a lot of money, I would buy books for the poor.
1b Listening and numbering
Now you are going to listen and number the pictures 1 to 3 in the order you hear them.
Tapescript
Girl1: Hey, did you see this newspaper article? An old man had a million dollars. And he gave it to charity.
Boy1: Wow, what a nice man!
Girl1: What would you do if you had a million dollars?
Boy1: If I had a million dollars, I’d give the money to the zoo. I want to help the pandas.
Girl1: That’s a gook idea! I know what I’d do. I’d buy a big house for my family.
Girl2: Really? I’d put the money in the bank. Then I’d just watch it grow!
Boy2: Hmmmm… I think I’d give the money to medical research. I’d want to help other people.
Now listen again and write down the sentences with Second conditional and Should for advice
1c Doing pairwork
Let’s pretend that we are the people in the picture on page 26. Talk with your partner about what you would do if you had a million dollars.
Look. This old man had a million dollars, and he gave it to charity.
Wow! What would you do if you won a million dollars?
I’d give it to medical research.
I’d take a chance to achieve my dream of flying to the moon.
If I won a million dollars, I’d stop working and become a professional runner.
I’d go to an old people’s home to help them.
I’d volunteer at the hospital twice every week.
2a Listening and circling
Listen to the tape and circle the reasons in the box on page 27 why Larry is nervous.
Tapescript
Girl1: Where are you going, Larry?
Boy1: To Tom’s party.
Girl1: Lucky you! I’d love to go to that party!
Boy1: Yeah, well, I’m a little nervous. I don’t know what to wear.
Girl1: If I were you, I’d wear a shirt and tie.
Boy1: And I don’t have a present. What if everyone brings a present?
Girl1: If I were you, I’d take a small present-a pen or
something. Keep it in your pocket and if everyone has a present,
you can give him yours. If not, you can keep it.
Boy1: OK. But what if I don’t know anyone?
Girl1: If you don’t know anyone, you can talk to Tom. He’ll introduce you to people.
Boy1: I guess I can do that.
Girl1: Look! You’re sure to have fun. But if you’re still nervous, you can leave.
Now listen again and write down all the expressions onto your phrase book.
go to that party, a little nervous, wear a shirt and tie, have a present, bring a present, take a small present, keep…in your pocket, know anyone, talk to…, introduce… to …, have fun
2b Listening and checking
Listen to the tape again and check on page 27 the four things Larry’s sister says to him.
2c Doing pairwork
Xu Linfeng, you are Larry. Men Yating, you are Larry’s sister. Xu is going to talk about his worries and Men is going to give him advice.
X: I don’t know what to wear. M: If I were you, I’d wear a shirt and tie.
X: I don’t have a present. What if everyone else brings a present? M: If I were you, I’d take a small present-a pen or something.
X: What if I don’t know anyone? M: If you don’t know anyone, you can talk to Tom. He’ll introduce you to people.

be really shy, enjoy parties, get nervous before big parties, get pimples, look terrible, the night before…, take a big exam, do well, help with…, eat lots of fruits, drink lots of water, take a long walk, go to bed, look friendly, feel shy
3b Thinking and role playing
Next you are going to think of different advice for the problems in activity 3a. Role play conversations with your partner.
A: I am really shy. I don’t enjoy parties. B: If I were you, I’d go and shout in the street. I’d set up parties and invite all my classmates to come and sing and dance.
A: I get nervous before big parties and I get pimples. B: Pimples look good to me. They are not terrible at all. If I were you, the night before the big exam I’d lie in bed counting the cows, the sheep, the cattle and the horses. Then I’d have a nice sleep. If you count as many cows as possible you’d do well in the exam.
A: I can’t lose my weight. B: If I were you, I’d eat lots of fruits, drink lots of water and take a long walk before going to bed every evening.
4. Doing group work
You are put into pairs and find out each other’s problems at school and at home. Then give each other advice.
I really want to go to the mall with my parents, but I don’t have the time. Finish your homework at school and stop going to Sunday classes. You’ll find time that way.
I failed the driver’s exam and cannot get my driver’s license. Go practicing driving more often and go over the textbook three more times. You won’t fail next time.
My father does not want me to get my ears pierced. If I were you, I’d go to my mother for support. Or you can ask your mother to have her ears pierced first.
I have to go to school on foot. I want to take the bus. Going to school on foot is good for your health. Go on going to school, to any places nearby on foot. It save money, too.
I like to choose my own clothes, but my mother doesn’t allow me to do that. Wear your school uniforms while you are still a student. Wait till you are a big man and you’d have the right to choose your own clothes.

3a Circling and underlining
On page 54 is a newspaper article about Paris. While reading it, circling the things you like about visiting Paris and underling the thing you don’t like.
TRAVEL SPOTLIGHT: PARIS
For your next vocation, why not consider visiting Paris? Paris is the capital of France, and is one of the liveliest cities in Europe. It doesn’t have any beaches or mountains, but there are still many things to do there. For example, it has some fantastic sights, including the Eiffel Tower and Notre Dame Cathedral, one of the most famous churches in the world.
Traveling around Paris by taxi can cost a lot of money, but it’s usually quite convenient to take the underground train to most places. In general, though, France is quite an expensive place. One thing that is not expensive in France, however, is the wine!
Most people in France have learned English. But many people don’t like to speak English, especially in Paris. So unless you speak French yourself, it’s best to travel with someone who can translate things for you.
Read the article the second time and blacken all the expressions. You may copy them after class.

Closing down by reading a poem
Terrible Dream
I'm feeling rather ragged.
I'm feeling rather rough.
I'm looking like I stayed up late,
and didn't sleep enough.
I went to sleep at bedtime
and dreamt all through the night,
but when I woke this morning
I was feeling far from right.
For though I drifted quickly,
and slumbered long and deep,
I'm totally exhausted
'cause I dreamed I couldn't sleep!
