Step4：Study Grammar ——The simple past tense
一般过去时（1）
一般过去时表示过去某个时间里发生的动作或状态；过去习惯性、经常性的动作、行为；动词 be 的过去时的基本结构：肯定：主语 + was/were + 其他；否定：主语 + was/were + not + 其他; 一般疑问：were/was + 主语 + 其他。
be 动词的过去式:
原 形
am
is
are
否定缩略式
am not
isn’t
aren’t
过去式
was
was
were
否定缩略式
wasn’t
wasn’t
weren’t
学习动词 be 的一般过去时，下面有一口诀，它可以帮大家更好地掌握动词 be 的一般过去时。动词 be 的过去时有四巧：
一是时间状语巧，表示过去的短语要记牢；二是形式巧，单数 was，复数 were；否定句结构是三巧，not 紧跟was／were；四是疑问句式巧， was／were 向前跑(提前)。
【一巧】 时间状语巧。一般过去时表示过去发生的动作或存在的状态，恰巧与表示过去的一些时间状语连用。例如：yesterday, last night／week／month／year, last Saturday, the day before yesterday, in 1998, five?years?ago 等。
【二巧】 形式巧。它与一般现在时一样，形式多样：当主语是第一人称单数或第三人称单数时，谓语动词用 was；主语是第二人称或其他人称复数时，谓语动词用 were。例如：I was in the classroom yesterday morning． 昨天早上我在教室里。 They were at school last Tuesday． 上周二他们在学校。
【三巧】 否定句结构巧。与动词 be的一般现在时一样，它在动词后面加 not 即可变成否定句，并且 was, were 与 not 可以缩写成 wasn’t, weren’t。即：主语 ＋ wasn’t／ weren’t ＋ 表语 ＋ 其他。例如： I was not (＝wasn’t) here yesterday． 昨天我不在这儿。
【四巧】 疑问句式巧。把 was, were 提到句首，句末用问号即可变为一般疑问句。即：Was (Were) + 主语 + 表语 ＋ 其他？这恰巧与动词 be 的一般现在时的疑问句式相似。
例如： Were you at home the day before yesterday? 前天你在家吗？ Was she late this morning？ 今天早上她迟到了吗？
更巧的是疑问句的答语也相似，肯定回答用“Yes, 主语 + was／were．”；否定回答用“No, 主语 + wasn’t／weren’t．”。
Step5：Complete the sentences with the correct form of “be”.
1. Lingling _____ (not) here last weekend.
She ______ in Xucun.
2. —_____ Tony born in Cambridge?
—Yes, he _________.
3. — ________ Daming born in Beijing.
—Yes, he ____________.
4. —__________ they at school on Monday?
—No, they _____________.
5. —_______ they at home this morning?
—No, they ____________.
6. —_____ your first teacher strict?
—Yes, she _____________.
7. — _______ your friends at your first
school difficult.
—No, they _____________.
8. —_______ you happy at your first school?
—Yes, I______________.
Step6：Work in pairs. Complete the sentences with the correct form of the word and expressions from the box.

曼德拉十大经典语录
●“当我走出囚室迈向通往自由的监狱大门时，我已经清楚，自己若不能把痛苦与怨恨留在身后，那么其实我仍在狱中”。
●“让黑人和白人成为兄弟，南非才能繁荣发展。”
●“在那漫长而孤独的岁月中，我对自己的人民获得自由的渴望变成了一种对所有人，包括白人和黑人，都获得自由的渴望。”——曼德拉对战争与和平拥有独特的认识。
●“压迫者和被压迫者一样需要获得解放。夺走别人自由的人是仇恨的囚徒，他被偏见和短视的铁栅囚禁着。”
●“我已经把我的一生奉献给了非洲人民的斗争，我为反对白人种族统治进行斗争，我也为反对黑人专制而斗争。我怀有一个建立民主和自由社会的美好理想，在这样的社会里，所有人都和睦相处，有着平等的机会。我希望为这一理想而活着，并去实现它。但如果需要的话，我也准备为它献出生命。”——1964年被判终身监禁时，曼德拉将审讯法庭变成了揭露种族隔离制度罪恶和唤醒广大民众的讲坛。他那长达4个小时的声明是这样结束的。
●“在这次伊拉克战争中，我们看见了美国和布什的一举一动，到底谁是世界的威胁？！”——曼德拉谴责美国总统布什肆意践踏伊拉克主权。
●“你(克林顿)如果不高兴就跳进游泳池去吧！”——曼德拉最不喜欢别人对南非指手画脚，1998年3月克林顿访问南非，在联合记者招待会上，曼德拉公开表示南非将与古巴、伊朗、利比亚保持密切关系，并宣布不久将出访伊朗，令与其并肩站在一起的克林顿大为尴尬。
●“我已经演完了我的角色，现在只求默默无闻地生活。我想回到故乡的村寨，在童年时嬉戏玩耍的山坡上漫步。”——退休后的曼德拉甘愿做一个平民。
●“我想用乐观的色彩来画下那个岛，这也是我想与全世界人民分享的。我想告诉大家，只要我们能接受生命中的挑战，连最奇异的梦想都可实现！”曼德拉84岁时曾在南非举办了个人画展，作品主题是监狱生活。在27年的铁窗生活中，曼德拉用木炭和蜡笔绘画来打发时间，渐渐形成了独特画风：线条简单、色彩丰富。他最喜欢用画笔讲述自己的铁窗故事，但并不选用“黑暗、阴沉”的颜色，而是明亮轻快的色彩，以此来表现自己乐观积极的心态。
●“别担心，放轻松，要快乐！”——85岁的曼德拉依然精神矍铄，性格开朗。在这位尝过近30年牢狱之苦的老人心中，自由就是幸福。·“从今往后，我的生活添加了两个重要内容，第一个是格拉萨，第二个是到莫桑比克吃大虾。”——曼德拉与莫桑比克前总统遗孀相伴晚年。
曼德拉的一生
纳尔逊·罗利赫拉赫拉·曼德拉（Nelson Rolihlahla Mandela）1918年7月18日出生于南非特兰斯凯一个大酋长家庭，先后获南非大学文学士和威特沃特斯兰德大学律师资格，当过律师。曾任非国大青年联盟全国书记、主席。非国大执委、德兰士瓦省主席、全国副主席。他成功地组织并领导了“蔑视不公正法令运动”，赢得了全体黑人的尊敬。于1994年至1999年间任南非总统。曼德拉曾在牢中服刑了27年，在其40年的政治生涯中获得了超过一百项奖项，其中最显著的便是1993年的诺贝尔和平奖。南非首位黑人总统（任期：1994年-1999年），被尊称为南非国父。
2008年7月18日，曼德拉90岁生日。对于早已隐退的他，南非以至于整个世界似乎都不愿意接受曼德拉的隐退。
在姆贝基刚成为总统时，《金融周刊》编辑穆博蒂曾描绘他是如何受到欢迎，但如今他则写道：“无需多说，他们的王子已经变成一只青蛙。”“曼德拉团结了这个国家，姆贝基却分裂了它。”
曼德拉一生致力于消除的差距依旧触目惊心地存在，在富裕的社区里，白人拥有豪宅而黑人只能给他们锄草施肥。作为后种族隔离时代的许多改革措施之一，白人和黑人的孩子们坐在同一个教室里上课，白人家长惊讶于他们的下一代如此和睦相处。但是仍然可以看到差别：白人小孩家中塞满了玩具，而黑人小孩家里只有可怜巴巴一间房。
南非正遭受着除战争区之外最严重的暴力犯罪，尤其是在约翰内斯堡附近的豪登地区。该国艾滋病病毒携带者居世界首位。姆贝基遭到工会和左翼人士的抨击，因为非国大的亲商政策迟迟未能兑现黑人政权造福贫困人口的承诺。失业率徘徊在23%左右。
南非的经济增长正遭受电力危机威胁，通胀可能继续走高。由于对津巴布韦危机的调解不力，姆贝基也受到批评。该国正在恶化的危机使得数百万难民涌向邻国，尤其是南非。今年5月，这些难民成为骇人听闻的排外暴力的目标。外国人被活生生烧死的情景令人想起种族隔离晚期的诸多野蛮暴力。
每当危机爆发，人们都期望听到曼德拉的声音。“我渴望这位伟大领袖归来，”作曲家史蒂芬·米勒表示，“真是异常地怀旧啊！”
“曼德拉是在南非转型期间起到决定性作用的人物，南非人民至今仍然认同曼德拉的价值观。”克顿贝也说。
但也有一些分析师认为，这些担心有些夸大其辞了。罗德斯大学的斯蒂芬·弗里德曼说，虽然曼德拉在调解种族关系方面扮演了重大角色，但“他过去不是、现在也不是弥赛亚”。
分析家认为，曼德拉虽然建立起一个新民主国家，但是他似乎并未着力解决经济问题，而这些要让姆贝基解决。“姆贝基的最大长处和缺点是他是一个过分相信政策，而不关心人民。曼德拉执迷于人民而忽视政策。”弗里德曼说。
而在22天前的伦敦海德公园音乐会上，曼德拉对台下的年轻人说：“现在是时候靠年轻一代人的力量来清除世界上的痛苦了。”
曼德拉对于南非意味着什么？
曼德拉是一个标志，他代表了历经千辛万苦、南非人民用生命作为代价所换来的政治转型。对于这个国家而言，他扮演了“国父”的角色。

一般过去时表示过去某个时间里发生的动作或状态；过去习惯性、经常性的动作、行为；动词 be 的过去时的基本结构：
肯定：主语 + was/were + 其他；
否定：主语 + was/were + not + 其他;
一般疑问：were/was + 主语 + 其他。be 动词的过去式学习动词 be 的一般过去时，下面有
一口诀，它可以帮大家更好地掌
握动词 be 的一般过去时。
动词 be 的过去时有四巧：
一是时间状语巧，表示过去的短语要记牢；二是形式巧，单数 was，复数 were；否定句结构是三巧，not 紧跟was／were；四是疑问句式巧， was／were 向前跑(提前)。 【一巧】 时间状语巧。一般过去时表示过去发生的动作或存在的状态，恰巧与表示过去的一些时间状语连用。例如：yesterday, last night／week／month／year, last Saturday, the day before yesterday, in 1998, five?years?ago 等。【二巧】 形式巧。它与一般现在时一样，形式多样：当主语是第一人称单数或第三人称单数时，谓语动词用 was；主语是第二人称或其他人称复数时，谓语动词用 were。例如：I was in the classroom yesterday morning．
昨天早上我在教室里。 They were at school last Tuesday．
上周二他们在学校。【三巧】 否定句结构巧。与动词 be的一般现在时一样，它在动词后面加 not 即可变成否定句，并且 was, were 与 not 可以缩写成 wasn’t, weren’t。即：主语 ＋ wasn’t／ weren’t ＋ 表语 ＋ 其他。例如： I was not (＝wasn’t) here yesterday． 昨天我不在这儿。 【四巧】 疑问句式巧。把 was, were 提到句首，句末用问号即可变为一般疑问句。即：Was (Were) + 主语 + 表语 ＋ 其他？这恰巧与动词 be 的一般现在时的疑问句式相似。例如： Were you at home the day before yesterday? 前天你在家吗？ Was she late this morning？
今天早上她迟到了吗？
更巧的是疑问句的答语也相似，肯定回答用“Yes, 主语 + was／were．”；否定回答用“No, 主语 + wasn’t／weren’t．”。 你掌握了吗？你太棒啦！Complete the sentences with the correct form of be.1. Lingling ______ (not) here last weekend.
