an organized series of acts and performances (usually in one place); “a drama festival.”
From Latin, joyful. Another way of describing a Feast Day.
A special day or season of the year to celebrate an event of importance to a religion. They were and are times of feasting (hence the name) and are often associated with holidays ('holy-days')
A special occasion during the church year.
a religious celebration.
A ceremonial parade
2. Traditional Chinese Festivals
Spring Festival
春节 The most important festival in China is the Spring Festival. Since all the traditional festivals in China are based on the Chinese lunar calendar, the Spring Festival marks the beginning of the Chinese Lunar New Year.
At this festival, people bring out their bounty from hunting, fishing and the field to thank the gods and ancestors for the blessings.
The first meal in Spring Festival is rather important. Family members will have a reunion to eat together. According to historical records, people from both north and south ate dumplings on Chinese New Year's Day. Dumpling means midnight or the end and the beginning of time.
To pay a New Year visit is an important event during the Spring Festival. And from the Ming Dynasty in the 14th century, ordinary people began to exchange cards.
The recreational activities during the Spring Festival are various and colorful. The traditional performances are Dragon Dance and Lion Dance. On New Year's Eve firecrackers are ubiquitous.
Mid
-Autumn Festival
中秋节 Chinese ancestors believed that the seventh, eighth, and ninth lunar months belong to autumn. So the Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th day of the eighth lunar month.
Mid-Autumn Festival celebrations date back more than 2,000 years. In feudal times, Chinese emperors prayed to Heaven for a prosperous year.
There is a beautiful legend about the moon. A long time ago, a terrible drought plagued the earth. Ten suns burned fiercely in the sky like smoldering volcanoes. The king of Heaven sent Hou Yi down to the earth to shoot down nine suns. A beautiful girl named Chang'e fell in love with him. The two soon married. The Goddess rewards Hou Yi with an elixir. Unfortunately an evil man murdered Hou Yi. Chang'e had to eat the elixir herself and decided to choose living on the moon.
Because the full moon is round and symbolizes reunion, the Mid-Autumn Festival is also known as the festival of reunion. People will eat moon-cakes at this festival for cakes shaped like the moon. So don't forget to taste all the delicious moon-cakes at the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Yuanxiao Festival元宵节 The Yuanxiao Festival is on the 15th of the first lunar month. That night there is a full moon, and every household is decorated with colorful lanterns and prepares yuanxiao, a kind of round dumpling made of glutinous rice flour with sweet of salted fillings, which is boiled or fried. When night falls, people go into the street, where exquisite lanterns of diverse designs are hung. Some are pasted with riddles for the passers-by to solve.
Laba and the Eight-Treasure Porridge腊八和八宝粥 Laba is celebrated on the eighth day of the 12th lunar month, because La in Chinese means the 12th lunar month and Ba means eight. The eighth day of that month was considered a day for sacrifice to the gods and ancestors to ensure a peaceful life and a good harvest for the next year.On this day, people will eat Labazhou--the eight-treasure porridge, referring to the many nutritious ingredients used in this porridge.
The eight-treasure porridge was first introduced to China in the Song Dynasty about 900 years ago. According to written records, large Buddhist temples would offer it to the poor to show their faith to Buddha. In the Ming Dynasty about 500 years ago, it became such a holy food that emperors would offer it to their officials during festivals. As it gained favor in the feudal upper class, it also quickly became popular throughout the country.

2. A traveling amusement show usually including rides, games, and sideshows.
A festival or revel: winter carnival.
carnival, communal celebration, especially the religious celebration in Catholic countries that takes place just before Lent. Since early times carnivals have been accompanied by parades, masquerades, pageants, and other forms of revelry that had their origins in pre-Christian pagan rites, particularly fertility rites that were connected with the coming of spring and the rebirth of vegetation.
In recent times, the term carnival has also been loosely applied to include local festivals, traveling circuses, bazaars, and other celebrations of a joyous nature, regardless of their purpose or their season.

教材分析和教材重组
教材分析
本单元以节日为话题,介绍了世界各地的一些节日、含义、由来和民俗。通过本单元的学习,可以帮助学生更多地了解节日、体味文化;同时又能教育学生理解、尊重不同的文化和习俗。通过本单元的语言技能训练,要求学生学会使用请求以及感谢的表达法。
1. Warming Up 要求学生以小组形式完成一个表格填充,列出中国的五个节日和这些节日的时间、庆祝的内容以及节日里人们的所作所为。激发学生的阅读兴趣,为本单元Reading部分的世界节日做好铺垫。
2. Pre-reading 通过若干个问题了解学生对节日的认识,比如:你最喜欢的节日是什么?你喜欢与家人还是与朋友共度佳节?你喜欢节日的哪部分——音乐、拜访朋友,可看的还是可吃的?
3. Reading 由五篇小短文组成,分别介绍古代节日、亡灵节、纪念名人的节日、丰收节和春天的节日等,使学生了解节日的由来及其存在的意义。最古老的节日主要庆祝冬天的结束,春天的播种,秋天的收获等。鬼节是为祭奠亡灵,取悦祖先而举行的节日,例如日本的盂兰盆节(Obon),墨西哥的亡灵节,万圣节(Halloween)等。纪念名人的节日有中国的端午节,美国的哥伦布日,印度的甘地纪念日。春天的节日包括中国的春节,西方的狂欢节、复活节,日本的樱花节。
4. Comprehending 第一部分提出的6个问题让学生对所读文章有一个浅层理解。第二部分要求学生讨论哪些节日是最重要的,哪些是最有趣的,结合所读文章和自己的想法填表。第三部分要求找出各个节日中共有的三件事,然后与同伴讨论为什么这些事情对各地的人们都是重要的。这一任务不仅使学生重温所读文章的内容,而且结合他们的实际,给学生机会阐述自己的想法和观点,挖掘学生的思维潜力。这3个练习的设置由表及里,由浅入深,非常科学。
5. Learning about Language 主要突出本单元的重点词汇和主要语法项目。通过本单元的学习,要求学生熟练掌握情态动词may/ might,can/could,will/would,shall/should,must/can的各种语用功能。
6. Using Language涵盖了听、说、读、写四个部分。Listening通过几位学生参加Trinidad Carnival节日游行的两段对话,使学生体会参加节日游行的真实情景,既训练他们的听力又通过回答问题训练他们的分析能力。Speaking分为两部分。第一部分主要通过电话对话突出本单元交际功能用语的训练。第二部分让学生根据上段的“你”刚从Trinidad回来编对话,学生可以按自己的想象和经历编写谈话内容,这样做有助于训练学生的思维。Reading部分主要讲述发生在情人节的一个伤心的爱情故事。故事中有穿插一个“乞巧节”的传说。阅读后的讨论不但帮助学生理解文章的主旨大意,更重要的是让学生学会寻求解决问题的方法。Writing主要是要求学生根据上面阅读文章的内容写一个与文章结尾不同的结局,让学生通过思考写出自己的思想、自己的做法,尝试自己解决问题。

Notes to some difficult sentences
1. Discuss when they take place. (Warming up)
take place 表示 “发生、产生”。
比较happen与take place:
happen偶然性的没有预料到的事情的发生
take place必然性的发生
Great changes have taken place in my hometown.
We don’t know what has happened to the poor mother.
2. Festivals and celebrations of all kinds are held everywhere. (Reading)
这里festivals and celebrations of all kinds = all kinds of festivals and celebrations。
又如:experiments of this kind = this kind of experiments
—You said he was old. 你说他老了。
—I never said anything of the kind.(=I said nothing at all like that.)我从来没有说过那种话!
注意of a kind的含义:
1) of the same kind:Father and son are two of a kind. They’re both generous.
2) of a not very good kind:It’s advice of a kind,but it wasn’t very helpful.
3. The most energetic and important festivals are the ones that look forward to the end of winter and the coming of spring. (Reading)
look forward to期待, to 在这里是介词。
I’m looking forward to seeing you soon.
下列短语中的to 也是介词。

4. The country is covered with cherry trees flowers so that it looks as though it might be covered with pink snow.
as though=as if好像;仿佛;似乎;
The boy looks as if he were a big man.
5. In European countries it is the custom to decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit. (Reading)
it在这里是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的不定式to decorate churches and town halls with flowers and fruit。
6. If they are not given anything, the children might play a trick. (Reading)
play a trick (on sb) 在这里是“捉弄某人”的意思。类似是表达还有laugh at sb 嘲笑某人;make jokes about sb开某人的玩笑。
The naughty children like playing tricks on their maths teacher.
Don’t laugh at the people in trouble.
How dare you make jokes about your boss?
7. Because they thought these festivals would bring a year of plenty. (Reading)
year/ day/ life of plenty表示“富足的年景/日子/生活”。
You have a life of plenty, what would you be worried about?
英语中的情态动词虽然为数不多,但是要掌握好它们的用法并不容易。本文结合同学们在使用情态动词时不易掌握的难点谈几点看法。
1. can表示可能性时,指的是理论上的可能,它通常不用来表示某事实际发生的可能性或真实性。如:
Accidents can happen.Anybody can make mistakes.
如果我们要表达某事发生的实际可能性,要用may, could或might等。
We may spend our summer holidays in Hangzhou this year.
Will you answer the telephone?It could/may/might be your mother.
2.could用来征求意见时,语气要比can委婉,但在回答问题时我们不能用could,因为语气委婉,可能性就变小了。如:
—Could I use your telephone?—Yes, please go ahead.
3.在过去时态的肯定句中需要某种条件或努力做成某事,我们要用was/were able to而不能用could。如:
It was a holiday and the children were able to go to the seaside.
The girl worked hard so she was able to pass the final test.
4.must与have to都可以表示“必须”的意思,但要注意以下两点区别。
1) must只有现在时,而have to有现在时、过去时和将来时。如:
We must work hard, or we’ll fail in the examination.
Years ago, the poor girl had to leave school for lack of money.
2) must表示主观看法,have to则侧重于客观需要。如:
We must be strict with ourselves in everything.
In cities with many cars, some people have to wear masks.
5.must表示推测时,其反意问句有好几种形式。
1) “must+动词原形”对目前的情况进行推测时以及用must+be+-ing形式对目前正在发生的情况进行推测时,疑问短语部分要与must之后的动词相一致。如:
The mathematics teacher must be in the office now, isn’t he﹖
2) “must+have+过去分词”用来表示对已经发生的事情进行推论。如果句子中有过去的时间状语,疑问部分用助动词didn’t否则,疑问部分用haven’t或hasn’t。如:
The children must have watered the tomatoes yesterday, didn’t they﹖
The minister must have arrived in Shanghai, hasn’t he﹖
6.shall可以用来征求对方意见,用于第一、三人称。此外它也可以用来表示说话人的命令、警告、允诺、威胁或决心等,这时它用于第二、三人称。如:
Shall she go to the concert with us this evening﹖ (征求意见)
You shall go to the front at once.(命令)
Don’t worry.You shall get the answer this very afternoon.(允诺)
He shall be sorry one day.I tell you.(警告)
Nothing shall stop us from fighting against pollution.(决心)
7.在表示将来的时间、条件状语从句中,不能用will(这时的will不是情态动词,而是助动词,帮助构成将来时)。如:
If it will rain tomorrow, we shall not go to the mountain village.(误)
If it rains tomorrow, we shall not go to the mountain village.(正)
当情态动词will表示意愿或决心时,是可以用于条件状语从句的。如:
If you will listen to me, I’ll give you some advice on how to learn English.
如果你愿意听我的话,我将给你提点学习英语的建议。
If you will come this way,the manager will meet you.
请您往这边走,经理现在要见你。
8.should除表示必要或义务外,还可表示推测或可能。如:
The American friends should be here now.
“should/ought to+have+过去分词”既可表示本该做而事实上没有做的事,也可以表示惊讶、责备、赞叹等情绪。如:
You should have told her about it the day before yesterday.
It’s wonderful that you should have achieved so much in these years.
“情态动词+have+过去分词”是很重要的一种句型,除should外,may, might, must, couldn’t, needn’t, ought to等都可以用于这一句型,但要注意使用不同的情态动词句子的意思就有所不同。
9.ought to与should意思接近,大多数情况下二者可以互换,但是should谈的是自己的主观看法,ought to则更多反映客观情况,在谈到法律、义务和规定时使用。如:
We should/ought to help each other and learn from each other in our work.
She is your mother, so you ought to support her.
We ought to go and see Mary tomorrow, but I don’t think we will.
10.need用作情态动词,仅用于否定句和疑问句,而不用于肯定句。在肯定句中要用must, have to, should, ought to或将need当作行为动词使用。如:
We need report the matter to the boss immediately.(误)
We must report the matter to the boss immediately.(正)
We need to report the matter to the boss immediately.(正)
dare的用法也一样。
dare与need 的用法
1) dare作为情态动词,主要用于疑问句,否定句和条件从句中,一般不用于肯定句。
a. How dare you say I’m unfair?
b. He daren’t speak English before such a crowd, dare she?
c. If he dare break the rule, he will be punished.
2) need表示”需要”或”必须”,作情态动词用时,仅用于否定句或疑问句、条件从句中。“有……必要”。在肯定句中一般用must, have to, ought to或should代替。
a. You needn’t come so early.
b. —Need I finish the work today?
—Yes, you must. / No, you needn’t.
c. If you need go there, please let me know.
3) dare和need常用作实义动词,有时态、人称和数的变化。所不同的是,在肯定句中, dare 后面通常接带to的不定式; 在否定和疑问句中, dare后可接带to或不带to的不定式。
a. I dare to swim across the river
b. He doesn’t dare (to) answer.
c. We need time and money.
d. The dining room needs/ wants/ requires cleaning every day.
= The dining room needs/ wants/ requires to be cleaned every day.
e. Does he need to take the medicine four times a day?
需要注意的几点:
1. 表示猜测,can一般不用于肯定句中,除非是“经验之谈” 。这时can可以表示客观的可能性,并不牵涉具体的事情是否会发生;要表示某事发生的可能性别时需要用could,may, might。
Children can often get ill suddenly.(小孩常常可能突然生病)
Certain things in the home can be dangerous,especially if you have young children.(家里的某些东西可能有危险,尤其是有小孩的时候。)上面两句可以看作医务工作者或抚养过孩子的人说的话,属“经验之谈”。
Accidents can happen on such rainy days.
2.may和might都不用于疑问句中。如:
(正)Can/Could it be cloudy tomorrow?
(误)May/Might it be cloudy tomorrow?
3.must的否定式是can't/couldn't,不是 needn't或mustn't。
4.would +V原形:想必现在/过去……;现在/过去可能……
He would be back today/yesterday.想必他今天/昨天回来了。(他今天/昨天可能回来了。)
5.should/ought to+V原形:想必现在/将来会……
The dinner should/ought to be ready now.想必晚饭现在已备好。
He should/ought to ring up this afternoon.想必他今天下午会打电话的。
6.will +V原形:将来一定/准会……
Try your best,and your wish will come true.尽力吧,你的理想准会实现的。

Carla and Hari are students in Trinidad. Their Chinese friends, Li Mei and Wu Ping, are visiting for the Carnival holiday in February.CARLA: Li Mei, why are you wearing those shoes? You can’t be serious! Your feet will hurt so much by the end of the parade that you won’t be able to stand. Would you like these comfortable shoes?LI MEI: Thanks, Carla, but I wanted something to go with this dress. Those are the wrong colour.
CARLA: You must be joking! That dress is too thick. Do you realize that it’ll be thirty-five degrees out there and that you’re going to walking and dancing until midnight?You have to have something light and cool ─ and a hat!
Part2
The boys are already there when the girls arrive. The music over the loudspeakers makes it difficult to hear each other. One after another, big bands arrive, along with thousands of dancers and musicians. The Carnival is beginning!C=Carla WP=Wu Ping H=Hari

already tired and thirsty!C: We’re each going to need a lot of water tonight! Shall I run over to the stand there and get something to drink for everybody?
H: Hurry up, Carla! The bands are moving!
C: OK, I’ll hurry! But remember… We’re
going to go slowly at first, so Wu Ping
and Li Mei can get used to the music and
the heat! H: Yeah, OK! Remember, you two, if we
get separated in the crowd, We’ll
meet at the north end of the parking
lot by 8 o’clock. Then we can go
together to see the winners of
year’s awards for best band and best

最精心制作的复活节彩蛋甚至不是真蛋。一个叫卡尔·费伯奇的俄国珠宝商曾用金、银和珠宝做成彩蛋。打开蛋还可以看到小小的人、动物、植物和房子。俄国皇帝以此作为礼物送人。 复活节兔子是非常古老的复活节象征的现代说法。野兔是兔子的大个子亲戚,它是专供厄俄斯特女神用的圣物。
在复活节穿新衣服的习俗是在公元后300年左右开始的,大约在第一个基督徒皇帝康斯坦丁的时代。他下令在复活节那天朝臣们都得穿最好的衣服。First Listening: Listen to this conversation between Chen Bin and his American friend, Joey. What is the main topic of their conversation.The main topic of the conversation is about the meaning of Easter and some of its traditional customs. Second Listening: Listen again and fill the blanks.Easter
CHEN BIN:Hey,Joey! I was watching a movie last night that showed some
people celebrating Easter. What is Easter?
JOEY: Oh, Easter is the holiday every spring when Christians around the world celebrate Jesus coming back to life from the dead.Third Listening: Listening textCHEN BIN: Coming back to life?
JOEY: Yes, it’s a famous story in the
Bible about Jesus. Easter is always
celebrated on a Sunday. It’s said that
Jesus rose from the dead on a Sunday.
People will often go to church on Easter
Sunday to sing songs and hear about
Jesus.CHEN BIN: I saw in the movie that a mother was making little cakes with Xs on them.
JOEY: Oh Yes. Those are “hot cross
buns”. The cross on the bun is to remind people how Jesus died.CHEN BIN: I remember last year on
Easter you gave me an egg that was painted
many different colours. Why do you colour eggs on Eater?
JOEY: That’s mostly an American tradition. Children will colour the eggs before Easter. Early on Easter morning, parents will hide the eggs inside the house or outside in the garden. Then when the children wake up, they try to find the eggs. The parents often say that the eggs were left by the Easter bunny.
CHEN BIN: The Easter bunny? What do eggs and bunnies have to do with Jesus?JOEY:I guess it is because people think they represent life. We also often have lilies at Easter to represent life that is new and clean.
CHEN BIN: So Easter is about Jesus, hot cross buns, eggs, bunnies and lilies?JOEY: Well, it’s supposed to be about Jesus. But today many people forget the story and just remember the hot cross buns or the eggs and bunnies!Listening (Page 45) 1. part of
