Step 4. Reinforcement

Deal with the exercises on page 126

Suggested answers to Ex 2 on Page 126

Higher primates, such as chimpanzees, are genetically very similar to human beings. They walk like us (upright) and have hands and feet that can grasp. Chimpanzees and other higher primates also behave in “human” ways: they live in groups, they communicate with each other, and they use tools to find and eat food. However, these similarities do not mean that higher primates necessarily think like humans or are able to do what humans do, such as the solve problems and use human language. Some primates, such as chimpanzees, also have opposable toes, but human beings don’t.

Step 5. Language points

1. …are better than other animals 是比較級表最高級的用法

(1)比較級+than+ any other+單數名詞

He is taller than any other boy in his class. 他在班上是最高的。

(2)比較級+than+ all the other+復數名詞

He is taller than all the other boys in his class.

(=He is the tallest of all the other boys in his class.

(3)比較級+than + anyone (anybody) else

He is taller than anybody else in his class. 他是班上最高的。

2. have a sense of …

3. that指代“the brain”

辨析: it, that, one

(1)it代替的是前面提到的同一名稱的同一事物，即同名同物，所指代的名詞可以是可數名詞，也可以是不可數名詞。

(2)one代替的是前面提到的同名異物的任何一個（不定指），所代名詞只能是可數名詞，其前可代冠詞，還可被this, that或形容詞修飾，其后也可有定語。

(3)that代替前面提到的同名異物中特指的事物，所代替的名詞可以是可數名詞也可以是不可數名詞，但其前不能有修飾語。

(4)如果前面提到的名詞是復數形式，為避免重復，則可視具體情況分別為they, them, ones或those代替。

(5)it和that可代替前面整個句子的意思，而one卻不能

(6)that可引導一個限制性定語從句,代替某個先行詞(單復數名詞均可),it和one則不能

(7)it可以代替不定式、動名詞從句，用作形式主語或形式賓語，而one和that則不能。

4. Compared to (with)與……相比較

Nov. 12, 2004 Friday Sunny

This evening I went to the KTV with some of my good friends.

This was the first time that I had been to a KTV and at first I didn’t want to go. I was ( had been ) in a bad mood the whole afternoon because I didn’t do well in the math exam. At the KTV, everybody sang their favorite songs very happily except me – I was only one of the audience. I dared not have a try because I was afraid that I couldn’t sing well. Encouraged by my classmates, I picked up the microphone and sang an English song entitled “I believe I can fly”.

I have become cheerful now and above all I’ve regained my self-confidence. I believe that the worst enemy in one’s life is oneself. I shouldn’t lose heart just because of one or two failures because I still have chances to try.
