The third period
(Word Study and Grammar)
Teaching aims:
1.Learn and master the Past Participle used as adverbial.
2.Compare the differences between the Present Participle and the Past Participle used as adverbial.
Teaching Procedures:
Step 1 Song
Ask the students to watch the VCD programme and learn to sing the song AN APPLE A DAY.

T: If two words have the same sound, including a vowel, we can say they rhyme. Who can give us some words that rhyme?
S: Horse and mouse, school and fool…
Now look at Part 2. Please read them and match the words that rhyme.
Suggested answers:
mad-glad tale-fail glory-story recite-night cow-plough shade-afraid isle-smile embrace-base
Step 2 Word study
T: Please turn to Page 29. Look at Word Study, Part 1. Fill in the blanks with words in the text. Have a discussion with your partner and then we’ll check the answers:
Suggested answers:
1. poem 2. absence 3.atmosphere 4.stories 5. poets 6. translated (put)
Step 3 Grammar
Show the two sentences on the screen.
The past participle used as adverbial.
1.Once published, his work became famous for the absence of rhyme at the end of each line.
2. No matter how well translated, something of the spirit of the original work is lost.
T: Look at the two sentences on the screen, who can tell us their Chinese meanings.
1.一經(jīng)出版，他的作品就因不押韻而著名。
2．即使翻譯得再好，一經(jīng)翻譯，原作的一些精華就沒有了。
T: Can you think of another way to express these ideas?
Suggested answers:
1. Once it (his work) was published, his work became famous for the absence of rhyme at the end of each line.
2. No matter how well it is translated, something of the spirit of the original work is lost.
T: From the sentences we’ve discussed, we know that if the past participle is used as adverbial, we can change them into the adverbial clauses, which has the same meaning. Now turn to Page 30. Please look at Grammar Part 1.Complete each sentence by using the past participle of the right verb. Before doing that, who will tell the meanings of the words in the box?
Suggested answers:
1. Frightened 2. followed 3. examined 4. Built 5. Seen 6. trapped 7. shot
Step 4 Practice
Show the sentences on the screen.
1. The castle , burned down in 1943, was never built.
2. If left alone on a deserted island, what would you do to survive?
T: Look at the two sentences on the screen. Each of the sentences has a past participle. Have a discussion about them and decide their functions.
Suggested answers;
1.In the first sentence the past participle phrase “ burned down in 1943” is used as attribute, modifying the noun “castle”. The meaning of the whole sentence is:1943年被夷為平地的那座城堡，再也沒有重建。
2. In the second sentence, “ left alone on a deserted island” is used as adverbial, expressing condition. The meaning of the whole sentence is: “如果你流落到一個(gè)荒涼的島上，為了生存下去，你會(huì)怎么辦呢？
Now look at Part 2 and decide the function of each past participle phrase. You can do it in pairs or groups.
Suggested answers:
1. AT 2. AD 3. AD 4. AT
Step 5 Consolidation
T: Look at the example on Page 30. Here are two sentences. They both have the same meaning but their adverbials are expressed in the different ways. Study the example and then rewrite the sentences on Page 31, using a clause to substitute the past participle phrase.
Suggested answers:
1. When he was asked what had happened, he told us about it.
2. As he was well known for his expert advice, he received many invitations to give lectures,
3. If we were given more time, we would be able to do the work much better.

Step 6 Comparison
Show two pictures. Ask the students to make sentences using the present participle and past participle as adverbial.
A. When crossing the street, you must be careful.
B. Followed by many students, the teacher came in.
T: Well done, so far we have finished learning the present and past participle used as adverbial. Let’s have a revision and make a comparison.
1.共同點(diǎn): 現(xiàn)在分詞和過去分詞在句中不能單獨(dú)作謂語,但可作定語,表語,賓語補(bǔ)足語,狀語.
分詞作狀語時(shí),其邏輯主語是句子的主語.如:
正確:Looking from the top of the hill, we can see the whole town..
錯(cuò)誤:Being an orphan, the villagers take good care of the child.
正確:Seen from the hill, our school looks more beautiful.
錯(cuò)誤:Seeing from the hill, our school looks more beautiful.
2.不同點(diǎn): 現(xiàn)在分詞有時(shí)態(tài)和語態(tài)的變化;而過去分詞只有一種形式,現(xiàn)在分詞常表”主動(dòng)”和 “進(jìn)行”;過去分詞的一般式常表 “被動(dòng)”和 “完成”.
式 語態(tài) 及物動(dòng)詞make的主動(dòng)語態(tài) 及物動(dòng)詞make的被動(dòng)語態(tài)
不及物動(dòng)詞rise
現(xiàn)在分詞 一般式 making being made rising
完成式 having made having been made having risen
過去分詞 made risen
3.易混淆點(diǎn):
a.分詞作伴隨狀語時(shí),若表”正在被……” 的概念,常用過去分詞,而不用現(xiàn)在分詞的被動(dòng)式.
Followed by some officials, Napoleon inspected his army.
b.現(xiàn)在分詞的完成被動(dòng)式和過去分詞兩者都可表示 “完成”和 “被動(dòng)”,但前者更加強(qiáng)調(diào)分詞動(dòng)作明顯先于謂語動(dòng)作;而后者的時(shí)間性不強(qiáng).
Having been told to stay in Beijing, the boy decided not to return to his village.

2.Finish the workbook passage "The Birth of Modern Poetry" by yourself.
Unit4 summary
本單元的topic是英國詩歌，包括詩歌的種類，英國詩人，英文詩歌的發(fā)展史等。
文科班的學(xué)生對(duì)詩歌很感興趣，但了解并不多，通過本單元的學(xué)習(xí)，可幫助他們對(duì)詩歌有更深的了解，開拓他們的視野，并幫助他們了解如何開始選擇閱讀詩歌，陶冶情操。
語法部分是有關(guān)過去分詞做狀語的練習(xí)，由于本部分曾系統(tǒng)講過，所以現(xiàn)在只是復(fù)習(xí)學(xué)過的知識(shí)，通過練習(xí)，仍發(fā)現(xiàn)不少問題，學(xué)生們大部分仍不能靈活使用分詞，不能舉一反三。
本單元體會(huì)最深的是：大量的詩歌欣賞使得學(xué)生們熱情高漲，他們自己背誦和搜尋了很多自己喜愛的英文詩歌，并爭先在課堂上展示，這樣就達(dá)到了教學(xué)目的。
不足之處：學(xué)生們語法部分薄弱，課堂教學(xué)效果不太明顯，有待提高。

The measure of a man’s real character is what he would do if he knew he would never be found out. - Thomas Macaulay
Some thirty years ago, I was studying in a public school in New York. One day, Mrs. Nanette O’Neill gave an arithmetic __26__ to our class. When the papers were __27__ she discovered that twelve boys had made exactly the same mistakes throughout the test.
There is nothing really new about __28__ in exams. Perhaps that was why Mrs. O’Neill __29__ even say a word about it. She only asked the twelve boys to __30__ after class. I was one of the twelve.
Mrs. O’Neill asked __31__ questions, and she didn’t __32__ us, either. Instead, she wrote on the blackboard the __33__ words by Thomas Macaulay. She then ordered us to __34__ these words into our exercise-books one hundred times.
I don’t __35__ about the other eleven boys. Speaking for myself I can say: it was the most important single __36__ of my life. Thirty years after being introduced __37__ Macaulay’s words, they __38__ seem to me the best yardstick (準(zhǔn)繩) , because they give us a __39__ to measure ourselves rather than others.
Few of us are asked to make __40__ decisions about nations going to war or armies going to battle. But all of us are called __41__ daily to make a great many personal decisions. Should the wallet, found in street, be put into a pocket __42__ turned over to the policeman? Should the __43__ change received at the store be forgotten or __44__? Nobody will know except you. But you have to live with yourself, and it is always __45__ to live with someone you respect.

It would be very exciting to be a reporter on a newspaper. As soon as a reporter’s boss gives him a story to write, the reporter is on the job. He keeps his mind on what he is going to do. He does not begin writing the story until he knows what he is supposed to find out. He must know why he should write the story.
At times a reporter must search hard to find all of the facts he needs for a story. The facts may not be right under his nose. To find the facts, he must also be able to recognize important details (細(xì)節(jié)).
As a reporter is gathering information for a story, he asks himself questions: Should I use this piece of information? Is this an important fact?
A reporter writes the story as fact as he can, so it can go right away into the newspaper. The story also needs a headline, which tells very quickly what the news story is about. The headline is the part of the news that is printed bigger and blacker than the rest of the news story.
Every big newspaper has many reporters, because many stories are needed in the newspaper. Would you like to be one of them?

Dear Li Ming,
How are you? Are you still spending a lot of time in studying English? I remember that you told me you wanted to find some proper English newspaper to read. Now I have an exciting news to tell you.
New Century School Edition was published on October 15th , 2003. So far, it’s the first weekly English newspaper in China which is edited according to the reading level and requirements of middle school students. Many popular things are introduced in simple English. It has many sections, for example, our world, campus trends, entertainment, sports, science life and learning with us. Reading them can help you enlarge your vocabulary and broaden your knowledge. I advise you to read the newspaper if necessary. I’m sure you can learn more from it.
I’m looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Best wishes,
