Period 3 Grammar (1) -- v-ed form as adverbials
■Goals
●To learn about the v-ed form as adverbials
■Procedures
Step 1: 过去分词作状语 1. 过去分词作状语过去分词作状语表示被动的和完成的动作. (1) Written in a hurry, this article was not so good! 因为写得匆忙,这篇文章不是很好. 【注意】written 为过去分词作状语,表示这篇文章是被写的,而且已经被写. 值得注意的是,有些过去分词因来源于系表结构,作状语时不表被动而表主动.这样的过去分词及短语常见的有: lost (迷路); seated (坐); hidden (躲); stationed (驻扎); lost / absorbed in (沉溺于); born (出身于); dressed in (穿着); tired of (厌烦). (2) Lost / Absorbed in deep thought, he didn't hear the sound.因为沉溺于思考之中,所以他没听到那个声音. 2. 过去分词作状语时其逻辑主语为主句的主语,此时应注意人称一致. (1) Given another hour, I can also work out this problem. 再给我一个小时,我也能解这道题.(given 为过去分词作状语,它的逻辑主语为主句主语 I ,即 I 被再给一个小时.) (2)_ Seen from the top of the hill, the city looks more beautiful to us. 从山顶看城市,城市显得更漂亮.(seen 为过去分词作状语,表"被看",由语境可知,它的逻辑主语必须是城市,而不是"我们",因为"我们"应主动看城市.) 【注意】如果过去分词作状语时,前面再加逻辑主语,主句的主语就不再是分词的逻辑主语,这种带逻辑主语的过去分词结构实际上属于独立主格结构. (1) The signal given, the bus started. 信号一发出,汽车就开动了.(the signal 是 given 的逻辑主语,因此主句主语 the bus 就不是given 的逻辑主语. (2) Her head held high, she went by. 她把头昂得高高地从这儿走了过去.(her head 是 held high 的逻辑主语,因此主句主语 she 就不再是held high 的逻辑主语.) 3. 过去分词作状语来源于状语从句. (1) Caught in a heavy rain, he was all wet. 因为淋了一场大雨,所以他全身湿透了. (caught in a heavy rain 为过去分词短语作原因状语,它来源于原因状语从句 Because he was caught in a heavy rain.) (2)_Grown in rich soil, these seeds can grow fast. 如果种在肥沃的土壤里,这些种子能长得很快.( grown in rich soil 为过去分词作条件状语,它来源于条件状语从句 If these seeds are grown in rich soil. 【注意】状语从句改成过去分词作状语时有时还可保留连词,构成"连词+过去分词"结构作状语. When given a medical examination, you should keep calm. 当你做体格检查时要保持镇定. 4. 过去分词作状语的位置.过去分词可放在主句前作句首状语,后面有逗号与主句隔开;也可放在主句后面,前面有逗号与主句隔开. He stood there silently, moved to tears. = Moved to tears, he stood there silently. 他静静地站在那里,被感动得热泪盈眶.
Step 2: Read the sentences and underline the V-ed forms

Module 5 Ethnic Culture-Grammar
Period 4 Grammar (2) -- phrasal verbs
■Goals
●To learn the usage of some phrasal verbs
■Procedures
Step 1: General introduction
The grammar items in this unit focus on phrasal verbs. You will learn that a phrasal verb is made up of a verb plus an adverb or a preposition. You will also learn some rules to use phrasal verbs. You are expected to apply what you have learnt to practical use by finishing a conversation and a word game.
Step 2: Explanation:
1. Look at the following sentences. Compare them and tell the part of speech of each underlined word.
He looked around and saw nothing.
She is looking after the old lady carefully.
In the two sentences, around is an adverb while after is a preposition.
She was so ill that it seemed unlikely that she would pull through.
He has gone through a difficult time recently.
Here the first through is an adverb while the second through is a preposition. So we know an adverb or a preposition is used to make up a phrasal verb.
2. Try to understand the meaning of the phrasal verb ‘make out’. Many phrasal verbs have more than one meaning. Do you know the meanings of the phrasal verbs in the following sentences?
1) His accent gives him away as a southerner.
2) He gave away most of his money to charity.
3) They gave away their last chance of winning the match.
4) The mayor gave away the prizes at the school sports day.
5) She took me in completely with her story.
6) He was homeless, so we took him in.
7) Fish take in oxygen through their gills.
8) I hope you’re taking in what I’m saying.
9) S he pays the bills by taking in washing.

To practise talking about ethnic culture
■Procedures
Step 1: Warming up by a discussion
In this module, we will talk about ethnic culture. As we all know, there are so many minorities, for example, the province of Yunnan is one home to many ethnic minorities. How much do you know about Yunnan Province?
“Yunnan” this word refers to “the South of Clouds”, it sounds beautiful and it is really a beautiful place. Let me tell you something about this wonderful land.
Yunnan, located in the Southwest China, has a vast territory, magnificent mountains and rivers, and abundant natural resources. With an area of 390,000 square kilometers, Yunnan is the eighth largest province in China. It is an inland province, with Guizhou Province and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region in the east, Tibet Autonomous Region in the northwest, and the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in the southwest. Outside China, Yunnan borders on Burma in the west; Vietnam and Laos in the south. With a long borderline, is the main passageway connecting China with the Southeast Asian nations.
In Yunnan, there are more than 6000 rivers which belong to 6 river-systems and 37 lakes with an area of over 1 square kilometer can be seen here, boasting a large number of plateau lakes. For example, the Dianchi Lake was called the bright pearl of Plateau. There are 700 hot springs as well, all of which attract lots of friends all over the world.
According to our Chinese culture, a perfect place should consist of both the waterscape and the mountain. Yunnan’s mountains are also famous, including the Yulong Xueshan Mountain in Lijiang, which was regarded as one of the key scenic spots at state level. The mountains and rivers in Yunnan are both very superb landscape.
Besides the landscape here, the climate in Yunnan is pleasant. As we all know Kunming is called the Spring City that’s because it’s always warm as in spring. The feature of Yunnan Climate is that it has little difference in the seasonal temperature but considerable difference of temperature in a day. In general, the weather is favorable throughout the year, cool in summer and warm in winter, which makes Yunnan a favorable resort all the year round.

■Procedures
Step 1: Warming up by brief Introduction of Lijiang
Lijiang is a beautiful shining jewel on the Northwest Yunnan Plateau neighboring the southeast side of the Tibetan Plateau which is considered to be the “Roof of the World”. It is impressive because of its scenery and lush vegetation. Lijiang boasts of breath-taking wonderful sights such as Jade Dragon Snow Mountain (Yulong Xueshan Mountain) (玉龙雪山) and its modern maritime glacier, the only one of its kind in the southern end of the Northern Hemisphere; Tiger Leaping Gorge(虎跳峡); the world - famous grand canyon; Lugu Lake(泸沽湖), the cultural cradle of the “Matriarchy”of the Yongning Mosuo people in Ninglang.
Lijiang Town is officially called “Dayan Town”—— “Dayan” literally means a “great ink stab”, a graphic description of the town’s location on a piece of rich flatland fed by a river and surrounded by green mountains. There is no other town in China like Dayan which incorporates the folkways of so many people and the architectural styles of both north and south China. The people of Naxi, while developing their land of snow-clad mountains and turbulent rivers since ancient times, have to their credit the “Dong Ba Culture” seen as one of the world wonders, a culture all-embracing while unique. All these natural sceneries and these cultural treasures of the minority peoples have been continuously drawing tourists from all over the world and have recently vote Lijiang as one of the favorite destinations in China.

■Goals
To get some idea about the Bai ethnic group
To draw out useful information from the text
■Procedures
Step 1: Warming up by reading a passage about the Bai ethnic group.
Hello, everyone, we have known something about the ancient town of Lijiang and the history of the Naxi ethnic group. Today we’ll go on with our study. We’ll learn something about the Bai ethnic group.
Archaeological finds from Canger and Haimenkou show that the Erhai area was inhabited as early as the Neolithic Age, and artifacts of the period indicate that the people of the region used stone tools, engaged in farming, livestock rearing, fishing and hunting, and dwelt in caves. Possibly, they began to use bronze knives and swords and other metal tools about 2,000 years ago.
The people in the Erhai area developed closer ties with the Han majority in inland provinces in the Qin and Han dynasties. In 109 BC the Western Han Dynasty set up county administrations and moved a large number of Han people to this border area. These people brought more advanced production techniques and iron tools, contributing to the economic development of the area. During the Sui and Tang dynasties, the farming there had reached a level close to that of the central plains.
Bai aristocrats backed by the Tang court unified the people of the Erhai area and established the Nanzhao regime of Yis and Bais. Its first chief, Piluoge, was granted the title of King of Yunnan by a Tang emperor.
Slaves were used to do heavy labor; whole “free” peasants were subject to heavy taxation and forced to render various services including conscription into the army. Some of them, who lost their land, were made slaves.
The Nanzhao regime lasted for 250 years. During that period of time, while maintaining a good relationship with the central government, the rulers cruelly oppressed the slaves and mercilessly plundered other ethnic nationalities through warfare. Productivity was thus seriously harmed. This caused slave rebellions and uprisings. Nanzhao’s power came to an end in the year 902. Then a regime based on a feudal lord system, known as the Kingdom of Dali, was established. The kingdom adopted a series of measures such as abolishing exorbitant taxes and removing conservative ministers. As a result, social productivity was restored.
The kingdom lasted for over 300 years as a tributary to the Song Dynasty court. It sent warhorses, handicrafts and precious medicines to the court, and in return received science and technology, as well as books in the Han language. Economic and cultural exchanges with the Hans contributed greatly to the development of this border area.
The kingdom was conquered by the Mongols in the 13th century, and the Yuan Dynasty rule was established there. The Mongols designated Yuan a province while establishing Dali and Heqing as prefectures. In order to strengthen their control over Dali, the Yuan rulers offered former chieftains official posts and granted their families hereditary privileges. Though land was mainly concentrated in the hands of the local aristocracy at that time, the feudal lord system began to give way to landlord system.
The Ming Dynasty took power from the Yuan rulers in 1381. The Ming court removed local chieftains and replaced them with court officials. This kind of reform resulted in the weakening of the political and economic privileges of the local lords, brought freedom to the slaves and raised the enthusiasm of the peasants for farming. Those Bais and Hans who had emigrated were encouraged to return, while Hans from other areas were persuaded to settle there. This measure accelerated the development of the landlord economy of Bai society.
In addition to the continuation of the Ming policy of dispatching officials from the central government, the Qing court also appointed local officials and chieftains to rule over the Bais.
Some Bai people in remote areas still suffered feudal exploitation and oppression at the time of liberation.

Section 1 Background Readings for Module 5 Ethnic Culture
1. The Jinuo Ethnic Group: The Jinuo Ethnic Group is made up of around 18,000 people who live in the Jinghong area of Yunnan. Their language is a Chinese-Tibetan language with no written script, but they mostly speak Chinese today. They live by farming, and fishing, and they grow mainly rice, maize and tea. Rice and maize, along with beans, are their staple foods; they eat three meals a day, with lunch being taken on their farmland. They live in large houses made of bamboo on mountain slopes. About 20 or 30 families live on the upper floor of the same house, keeping their animals on the ground floor. The women wear colorful jackets and short black skirts, while the men wear a short white jacket and white or blue trousers. They are known as good singers and dancers, and the drum is a very important instrument for them. In December they have a special Sun-drum Dance, when older people play a special drum and others dance around drum.
2. Ethnic Minorities in the UK: Immigration from countries which were former British colonies means that there are many other ethnic groups in the UK. These are the figures from the 2001 censsus (published 2003). Total UK population: 58,789,194. Ethnic groups: White: 92.1%, Mixed: 1.2%, Asian/Asian British: 4.0%, Black/Black British: 1.8%, Chinese: 0.4%, other: 0.6%.
3. Naxi: http://www.21cnjy.com/http://www.21cnjy.com/With a population of about 278009 (as of?1990), the Naxi ethnic group mainly live in concentrated communities in the Naxi Autonomous County of Lijiang in the Yunnan Province, and the rest are scattered throughout the neighboring counties in Yunnan Province, as well as Yanyuan, Yanbian and Muli counties in Sichuan Province. There is also a small number living in the Mangkang County in the Tibet Autonomous Region.?????
The Naxi ethnic?minority has its own language which belongs to the Yi branch of Tibeto-Burman Austronesian of the Chinese-Tibetan Phylum. The ancient Naxi people created pictographic characters called the “Dongba” script and a syllabic writing known as the “Geba” script. However, they were difficult to master, and in 1957 the government helped the Naxi design an alphabetic script. Due to close contact with the Han people over the past several hundred years, the Naxi people also use the oral and written Chinese to communicate.
According to historical documents, the forefathers of the Naxi people were closely related to a tribe called “Maoniu Yi” in the Han Dynasty (206BC-220AD), “Mosha Yi” in the Jin Dynasty (265-420) and “Moxie Yi” in the Tang Dynasty (618-907). The Naxis also had a number of other names. In 1278, the Yuan Dynasty established Lijiang Prefecture representing the imperial court in Yunnan Province. After the founding of the PRC in 1949, following consultation with the ethnic minority, it agreed upon the official name of Naxi ethnic minority.
Agriculture is the main occupation of the Naxi people, together with stockbreeding and handicraft industry. The banks of the Jinsha River are heavily forested, and Yulong Mountain is known at home and abroad as a “flora storehouse”. The extensive dense forests contain Chinese fir, Korean pine, Yunnan pine and other valuable trees, as well as many varieties of herbs.
Naxi literature is rich in form and content. The Dongba script created in the seventh century by the Naxi people is the only pictographic characters extant in the world. The Dongba Scripture, a religious work written in the pictographic script, describes the various aspects of life of the Naxi people during their long transition from slavery to feudalism. It is extremely important for the study of Naxi literature, history and religion.
Most Naxi people were followers of the Dongba religion, which is a form of Shamanism. Lamaism, Buddhism, Taoism and Christianity only have limited access to the Lijiang area.
The traditional festivals include the Farm-Tool Fair in January, the God of the Rain Festival in March, and the Mule and Horse Fair in July. There are also the Spring Festival, the Qingming Festival, the Dragon Boat Festival, the Mid-autumn Festival and the Torch Festival -- all being the same as those of the Hans.
4. 丽江
丽江既是一个县又一个地区的名称。丽江地区现在管辖4个县,其中华坪县是煤炭基地,永胜县是鱼米之乡,宁蒗彝族自治县和丽江纳西族自治县是重点旅游开发区。全区面积20600平方公里,总人口112万,除汉族外,人口较多的还来纳西族、彝族、傈僳族、白族、普米族等10个少数民族,人口64万,约占全区总人口的57%。丽江少数民族的语言、习俗、民居、服饰、节日、歌舞丰富多采,独具特色。
丽江坝子, 云南特有民族纳西族的主要聚居地,它是滇西北最大的高原盆地,面积近200平方公里,海拔2400米左右。丽江县城大研镇就坐落在坝子的中央。人们通常说的丽江古城,就是大研镇的中心,在1997年12月4日它被联合国列入世界文化遗产名单,成为一座世界文化名城。
为什么叫“丽江”呢? “丽江”一名,始于元朝至元十三年(1276年)设置行政区丽江路。《元史·地理志》说:“路因江名。”就是说,“丽江”地名的由来最早起源于金沙江的别称“丽水”。金沙江就是长江上游,因产金沙得名。但为什么金沙江又称“丽水”、“丽江”呢?史书上的主要说法是金沙江源于青藏高原犁牛石,而称犁水,即犁田的犁,山水的水。昆明大观楼长联作者孙髯翁就在《金沙江》诗中写道:“劈开蕃域斧无痕,流出犁牛向丽奔”。蕃域即今藏族先民吐蕃居住区。后因犁、丽声音相近而异写为丽水、丽江。
从地图上看,丽江的西、北、东三面都有金沙江环绕,就像拉丁字母W,形成三大转折奇观。由此看来,元世祖忽必烈用此突出的自然实体取名“丽江”,是很恰当的。丽江就是美丽的金沙江,当地纳西语又叫“依古堆”,意为大江转弯的地方。这里就引出了丽江古城的大环境——玉壁金川。玉壁指的就是玉龙雪山,它位于这个坝子的北端,像是古城的一堵银色照壁,把古城映衬得光彩夺目。金川指的就是金沙江,它三面环绕丽江地区615公里,堪称全球最美丽的江段。
丽江县城虽然地处云南西北高原,终年看见雪山,然而没有严寒,没有酷暑,不要暖气,不要空调。这里年均气温摄氏12.6度,最冷的1月平均气温约为摄氏6度,最热月的平均气温约为摄氏18度,年温差仅有12度左右。同时,丽江出现绝对低温和绝对高温的次数比较少,持续时间也不会太长,所以四季的界限不很明显。究其原因,主要是低纬度的地理位置,丽江位于北纬27度左右,冬夏两季日射角度变化小,地面温度比较均匀;而每年夏秋,又受海洋季风暖湿气流影响,阴雨天多,地面气温不易升高;加之纵横交错的高山成为阻挡北方寒流的天然屏障,所以这晨形成干暖温和的独特气候。
同时,丽江工业不多,自然很少受到污染,空气清新洁净,到处青山碧水,四季庄稼生长,尤其冬春季节,天空分外湛蓝,阳光充足明媚,令人赏心悦目。正是由于丽江的四季不很明显,立体变化,遇雨成冬,而且昼夜之间的温差比较大,所以外地客人到丽江后应适当注意增减衣服,以免引起感冒。
丽江虽然地处偏僻,却有着悠久的历史和灿烂的文化。五万年前,已有旧石器晚期智人“丽江人”在此生息。从新石器、青铜器的发现进一步证实了丽江是云南古人类的摇篮之一。丽江地区开发较早,公元前109年西汉即设遂久县管辖,元初设置云南37路之一的丽江路,“丽江”一名从此开始。元代至清初的470年间,丽江是纳西族木氏土司统治区域中心。
如今的丽江县,是中国唯一的纳西族自治县,也是丽江地区最大的一个县,面积7648平方公里,人口约36万,其中纳西族占55%。纳西族源于中国古代南迁的氐羌族群,居住在以丽江为中心的滇川藏交界处,总人口约有30万,而丽江县有20万,占全国纳西族总人口的67%。纳西族人口不多,分布不广,然而却以古老而丰富的民族文化著称,有人说它是小民族创造大文化。
纳西族最为著名的文化特色是“三个活化石”。所谓“三个活化石”,即是文字活化石——纳西象形文字、音乐活化石——纳西古乐、人类社会活化石——摩梭人母系大家庭。创造于唐代的纳西东巴文,被称为世界上唯一活着的象形文字;至今仍在丽江流行的两套大型古典乐曲《白沙细乐》,被中外音乐界被为“国宝”;泸沽湖畔摩梭人,至今仍保持着母系大家庭和不娶不嫁的阿夏走婚形态,为世所罕见。

经典时文背诵
Family Structure of Miao:
A typical “small family” in Miao society is considered to be two generations while three generations will be “standard small family”. However, the “small family” is widely seen in Miao society. When the sons divide and move out, the parents usually stay with the youngest son.
Like most societies, the guy works outside while the girl maintains the housework. The girl should not take care of the business or affairs outside the house. Mostly, the husband will be the one that is taking care of these. However, when it comes to food, cloth, or children’s marriages, the wife is the one has the power. Then for harvest and working in the fields, both of them will work together mutually. Therefore, in a typical Miao “small family”, the status of a wife is basically on the same level as that of the husbands’.
Most of the family wealth will be inherited by the sons. If the family doesn’t have any sons, then the wife has the right to inherit the wealth. After the death of the wife, it is split toward the husband’s brothers. If the family doesn’t have any kids, they can adopt their relatives or outsiders. Kids being adopted have the right to inherit the wealth. Moreover, sometimes, the wealth can be inherited by son in laws.

过去分词作状语是英语中常见的语言现象。我们所说的过去分词作状语是指单个的过去分词和过去分词短语这两种情况作状语。如frightened 是过去分词,frightened by the noise是过去分词短语。1.作时间状语,如:
Seen from the top of the building, our school looks beautiful.
从楼顶上看,学校看起来很美。
The water boils, heated to 100C.
水加热到100度就沸腾。2.作伴随状语,如:
She walked out of the house, followed by her little daughter.
她走出房间,后面跟着他的小女儿。
Dr Watson and I will spend the night locked in your room.
我和华生将把房门锁上在这里度过夜晚。3.作原因状语,如:
Destroyed by the hurricane, the old house is nowhere to be found.
由于飓风的破坏,那座老房子哪也找不到了。
Bitten by the cobra, the man is in danger.
因为被眼镜蛇咬了,这人处在危险中。在过去分词作状语的句子中,我们有时可以把连接条件、时间、让步等的状语从句的连接词放在过去分词的前面,相当于一个状语从句,如:
When shot in the leg, he continued to fire back with his gun.
(When he was shot in the leg…)
当他的腿被击中时他仍然用枪还击。Although tired, he went on working.
(Although he was tired…)
虽然他很疲倦,他仍然继续工作。
If punished by the parents, he won’t come again
(If he is punished by the parents…)
他若是被家长惩罚了,就再也不能来了。在使用过去分词作状语时要特别注意过去分词的逻辑主语一定是句子的主语,其逻辑主语与过去分词的关系是被动关系。下面的例子就可以说明这个问题。Seen from the top of the building, the school looks beautiful.
从楼顶上看,学校看起来很美。
Seeing from the top of the building, we found the school beautiful.
我们从楼顶往下看,发现学校很美。
这里第一句seen的逻辑主语是school,其关系是被动的;第二句seeing的逻辑主语是we,其关系是主动关系。The Ancient Town of LijiangThe Ancient Town of LijiangThe Ancient Town of LijiangLijiang SceneryLijiang SceneryLijiang SceneryLijiang SceneryThe Bai Torch FestivalThe Bai Torch Festival
