In Kansas City, Missouri, a computer helps fire fighters. The computer, which works very fast, has information about all the 350,000 street addresses in the city. Within two or three seconds after a call is received, the computer provides necessary information for the fire fighters. The information is then sent to them by radio from the computer centre in the City Hall. The exact place of the burning building and its size, type and any other details are clear to them.
The Kansas City computer system also has a medical record of each of the city's 900 fire fighters. This kind of information is especially useful when a fire fighter is injured. With the information, doctors at hospital can treat the injured fire fighters more quickly and easily.
The fire fighters themselves greatly appreciate (感激) the computer's help. They know about possible danger ahead of them and can prepare for it. Many times the computer information helps to save lives and property (财产). Sometimes the lives are those of fire fighters themselves.

In 1973, Gates entered Harvard University as a freshman, where he lived down the hall from Steve Ballmer, who is now Microsoft's president. While at Harvard, Gates developed a version (版本) of the programming language BASIC for the first microcomputer---the MITS Astair. In his junior year, Gates dropped out of Harvard to devote his energies full-time to Microsoft, a company he had started in 1975 with his boyhood friend Paul Allen. Guided by a belief that the personal computer would be a valuable tool on every office desk-top and in every home, they began developing software for personal computers.
Gates' foresight and vision have led to the success of Microsoft and the software industry. He plays an important role in the technical development of new products. Much of his time is devoted to meeting with customers and staying in contact with Microsoft employees around the world through e-mail.
In the dozen years since Microsoft went public, Gates has donated more than $ 800 mil- lion to charities (慈善机构), including $ 200 million to the Gates Library Foundation to help libraries in North America take advantage of new technologies and the Information Age.

Great changes have taken place in the way of communication in people’s life in recent years.
In the past, people kept in touch with each other mainly by writing letters or using the public telephone. But now almost everyone has his own mobile phone.People can communicate with each other almost at any place and at any time. What’s more, people have easy access to the Internet, which enables them to send and receive e-mails whenever they like.With these changes, people’s pace of life has been quickened and people’s work has been made more efficient. It used to take several days to hear from each other, but now it takes only several minutes, even if they are in two different continents. In a word, people have an easier life nowadays.
M2 Unit?3?Computer
Period 1:Warming up
(WHO AM I?)
Warming up This section is an introduction to the topic.It is to get the students thinking about the different ways computers can be made.Do this part of the lesson in pairs and as a speaking activity.
Warming up by talking about computer Look at the pictures on page 17. What are they? What do they have in common? Yes, they are computers. Then what is a computer? A computer is a machine which stores knowledge in its memory and does calculations on that knowledge. This knowledge is stored in symbols; it is called data. A computer usually has a monitor to show results. However, some computers can speak; these computers can be used for voice mail. Draw on the blackboard a diagram to illustrate the influence of the computer and the Internet over the school education.Below is a diagram you may like to use.Ask students to look at the diagram and consider, ”What changes have computers and the Internet brought to schools? What changes will they bring to schools in the future?”Ask the Ss to work in groups and to make a list of the possible changes they can think of.When most of the groups have their lists ready, the teacher can hold a class discussion.Write down the major changes the students think of under / beside the diagram.The teacher can add one or two changes that may affect their own teaching.For example, “Computers and the Internet can help busy parents contact teachers by email.”The teacher can end the task with a brief summary, or hold a further discussion to find out students' personal opinions about the changes.For example, ask them, “Do you like all these changes? Why and why not? What changes do you like / dislike?”
Some information:
计算机室 A computer frequently requires a boot device. The boot device contains the computer’s operating system and data. Computer programs can be installed onto a computer. Some people think that computers are less useful if they do not have access to the Internet. They think this because the Internet allows the computers to send and receive data and email across the world. 曙光3000巨型计算机 A computer is now almost always an electronic device. It usually contains materials which are toxic; these materials will become toxic waste when disposed of. When a new computer is purchased in some places, laws require that the cost of its waste management must also be paid for. This is called product stewardship. In some countries old computers are recycled (melted down) to get gold and other metals. This is dangerous, because this procedure releases the toxic waste into the water and soil. Computers become obsolete quickly. Very often they are given away and new ones replace them within two or three years. This makes the problem worse. Computer recycling is thus common. Many projects try to send working computers to developing nations so they can be re-used and will not become waste as quickly. Computer jargon 计算机行话 Computer jargon means words to do with computers and surrounding topics. Knowing what these words mean can help you know more about computers. Some people use these words to impress other people (Also known as buzzwords). Examples of jargon: Bit - The smallest data unit, can either be a “0.” or a “1.”. Byte - unit of data. See also Kilobyte, Megabyte, Gigabyte and Nibble CPU –Central Processing Unit, Another name for processor Data - Information stored on a computer Disk - A place to store data. Email - Electronic mail. GHz - Gigahertz. Used often incorrectly to describe the speed of a processor. But with some 2.4 GHz processors faster than 3.6 GHz ones, it is clear that it is just a salesman trick. Load - Get data from a disk Nibble - Half a Byte Save - Put data on a disk RAM – random-access memory(随机存取存储器), the more the better. USB - Universal Serial Bus(通用串行总线,一种简化了插接多种附件的薄型插座) WWW - World Wide Web, part of the Internet Period2-3 Pre-reading & Reading
Pre-reading This can be a continuation of the Warming Up.Let the students discuss the questions set out in the Student's Book.
1. Questioning and answering What do you know about computer? ●Electronic machine capable of performing calculations and other manipulations of various types of data, under the control of a stored set of instructions. The machine itself is the hardware; the instructions are the program or software. Depending upon size, computers are called mainframes, minicomputers, and microcomputers. Microcomputers include desk-top and portable personal computers. ●A multi-fun_ction electronic device that can execute instructions to perform a task. ●A device that accepts information, processes it, and supplies an output. A computer usually contains memory, a control unit, arithmetic and logical units, and a means for input and output. ●a programmable hardware component that is controlled by internally stored programs and that can perform substantial computations (including arithmetic and logic operations) without human intervention. A computer typically consists of one or more processing units, memory units, and associated peripheral input and output devices. ●Related to automation and electronic data processing. The Library of Congress commonly classes most computer-related books in HF5548, QA75-76, Z52, T385, and some TK ranges. ●a machine for performing calculations automatically calculator: an expert at calculation (or at operating calculating machines) ●A computer is a device or machine for making calculations or controlling operations that are expressible in numerical or logical terms. Computers are constructed from components that perform simple well-defined functions. The complex interactions of these components endow computers with the ability to process information. If correctly configured (usually by, programming) a computer can be made to represent some aspect of a problem or part of a system. If a computer configured in this way is give 2. Discussing and sharing How have computers changed our lives? Someday soon, if you haven’t already, you’re likely to plug into the computer network nation growing in our midst. Computer terminals, or small computers connected via modem (a modulator/demodulator circuit for encoding/decoding computer chatter) to ordinary telephone lines, should be as ubiquitous as the telephone itself. They’re a much more useful and humane tool than the phone, and with corporate America behind them the networks will be everywhere----changing our lives more than any technology since the automobile. Joining a computer network is the same as joining a community. Small systems are like villages, where new members are formally welcomed. The larger networks, the Source and CompuServe, for example, are cities-anonymous, full of life and events, but difficult to fit into. II. Reading This is the purpose of the reading and so it is important that the students learn to use all the clues in the text to help them understand the gist of what they are reading.So encourage them to look at the pictures and the heading and guess what the text might be about.Then ask the class to read the passage silently.Make sure the students have the chronology of the development of computers in their minds.Ask them:
1. Listening and reading to the recording of the text WHO AM I? Turn to page 18 and listen and read to the recording of the text. Pay attention to the pauses, pronunciation and intonation of the native reader. 2. Reading aloud and underlining expressions Now we are to read the text once again and underline all the expressions in the text. Put them down into your notebook after class as homework. Collocations from WHO AM I? begin as…, a calculating machine, be built as…, follow instructions from…, sound simple, at the time, a technological revolution, write a book, make…work, solve problems, become huge, had artificial intelligence, go back to…, the size of…, go by, change size, become small and thin, get quick, stand there by oneself, be connected by…, share information by…, talk to…, bring…into…, deal with…, communicate with…, serve the human race 3. Reading, identifying and settling Attention, please! It is time to skim the text one more time and identify the difficult sentences. Try analyzing the structures of the difficult sentences and discuss them among your group members. You may also put your questions to me for help. Chat (online)(在线)聊天 To chat is to talk about ordinary things that are not very important. You can chat to one person or to many people. People also use this word now for parts of the Internet where we can talk with many different people at the same time. Usually, you chat on the internet in a chat room or messaging service like AOL(American On-Line) Instant Messenger (AIM), Yahoo Messenger, or MSN Messenger. IV. Closing down by doing comprehending exercises Turn to page 18 and in pairs do the comprehending exercises No. 1 and 2. Reading and transferring Scan the text for information to complete the table below, describing the development of computer. In 1642 In 1822 In 1936 In 1960s In 1970s Answer key:

Period 5: Using Language (ANDY— THE ANDROID) Aims To discuss about IT To write a report about IT To read about androids or robots The purpose of this exercise is to encourage students to listen and then use what they have heard to help them fill in a chart about computers.It is an important exercise because it links skills together and uses them to produce a useful piece of writing.Make sure the students look at the chart before they listen to the tape.This is to sharpen their attention and listen for the answers.This will also help them get the gist of the text.When filling in the chart, the students will have to use their own experience as well as information from the listening text.
Procedures I. Warming up by talking about IT What is Information technology? Information technology (IT) or information and communication technology (ICT) is the technology required for information processing. In particular the use of electronic computers and computer software to convert, store, protect, process, transmit, and retrieve information from anywhere, anytime. II. Listening and writing Turn to page 21. Look at the pictures and listen to a conversation about different kinds of information technology or IT, discuss and write down in groups the advantages and disadvantages of each kind. III. Speaking and writing The purpose of this exercise is to discuss together and then decide which kind of computer you would like to buy for your school.Think about what the school needs as well as what you like.Let the students do the exercise in pairs and share their ideas with others.Finally they should write the report.Remember to say which computer you have chosen and give a reason.You should also say why you did not choose the other computers.
Suppose you and your partner are going to help choose computers for your school. Now talk about the special things each of the computer can do and write a report to your headmaster. IV. Reading, underlining and speaking This is a speaking activity about designing an android.The purpose of the activity is not the design but the quality of the discussion.So try to make sure each pair makes a contribution to the finished design.Then let them discuss their ideas with another pair.Perhaps that will give each pair some more ideas for their android.Finally let students share their ideas with the class.
It is said that computers could be put into androids or robots. Read the text Andy—The Android, underlining all the expressions and think of the fun you could have! Expressions from Andy—The Android part of a football team, once a year, get together, play a football game, be as…as…, in fat, look like…, on the football team, run fast, think like a human, shout to…, in computer language, have a good shot for a goal, get second place, win the first place, have a new kind of program, improve one’s intelligence, create a better system, play against a human team, in a way, program…with…, make up…, after all, with the help of… V. Writing a letter The purpose of this piece of writing is to develop empathy in the students.They have to imagine they are androids looking after a family with one child.They need to imagine what problems and delights this android might have to deal with.Putting yourself in someone else's shoes is a very important way of understanding how other people feel.This is a very useful exercise.
T: Suppose you are an android. What would say to a spoiled child who would not do his homework? Write a letter to the boy. Android An android is an artificially created being that resembles a human being. The word derives from Greek Andr- ‘man, human’ and the suffix -eides used to mean ‘of the species, kind, alike’ (from eidos ‘species’). The word droid, a robot in the Star Wars universe, is derived from this meaning. Some people maintain that, etymologically, the word android means resembling a male human and that a robot resembling a woman should logically be called a gynoid for sexist language to be avoided; however, this word is not commonly used. Unlike the terms robot (a mechanical being) and cyborg (a being that is partly organic and partly mechanical), the word android has been used in literature and other media to denote several different kinds of man-made, autonomous creations: a robot that closely resembles a human a cyborg that closely resembles a human an artificially created, yet primarily organic, being that closely resembles a human Although essentially human morphology is not the ideal form for working robots, the fascination in developing robots that can mimic it can be found historically in the assimilation of two concepts: simulacra (devices that exhibit likeness) and automata (devices that have independence). The term android was first used by the French author Mathias Villiers de l'Isle-Adam (1838-1889) in his work Tomorrow’s Eve, featuring a man-made human-like robot named Hadaly. As said by the officer in the story, “In this age of Realien advancement, who knows what goes on in the mind of those responsible for these mechanical dolls.” Sample writing:
Hello everybody, my name is Liu Yan.I am a 321 model android.I work for the Li family and I look after their library.My job is to store all the books that they borrow from their school or friends in my brain.Of course my brain is as large as a mountain so work like that is no trouble to me.I really eat books just like people eat food.
The Lis have a child who?needs me to remember all?his school textbooks so I can do?his homework for him.He just gives me the information on the subject, what has to be done and the page numbers and I get on with it while?he?enjoys himself?with his friends.Sometimes I don't think it is right to do his homework for him —?it's somewhat cheating. However, his parents are very concerned at the pressure of work in school these days.The child has too much homework to do. They?like him to go to the key school but they also want?him?to be able to have hobbies, learn to swim and keep fit! Poor child!
Mr. and Mrs Li work very hard too.Mr. Li is an architect and designs great tall apartment blocks.Mrs Li is a doctor and has to look after many patients.I remember all the plans for Mr. Li's projects and can tell Mrs Li which drugs are the best to give any particular patient.Mrs Li no longer has to read all those medical journals because I can do it for her.She and Mr. Li can have some time together to enjoy life too.So they consider me the most important person in the family after themselves.I am always introduced to their friends and play with visiting children.I am the perfect family academic aid and, although I was not cheap to buy, Mr. Li says I was worth every yuan!

Teaching Resources (教学资源) Section 1: A text structure analysis of WHO AM I? I. Type of writing and summary of WHO AM I? Type of writing This is a piece of narrative writing. Main idea of the passage Beginning as just a calculating machine in 1642 in France, the computer has been experiencing improvement again and over again over 300years or more, which has not only made it more beautiful and intelligent but also changed man’s life a great deal! Topic sentence of 1st paragraph I began as a calculating machine in 1642 in France. Topic sentence of 2nd paragraph No one could recognize me after I got my new transistors in the 1960s. II. A chain of events showing the development of computer a calculating machine in 1642 in France → an Analytical Machine in 1822 → a “universal machine.” in 1936 → the size of a large room → made smaller and smaller → getting new transistors in 1960s→ clever and quicker → a network in the early 1960s → talking to humans using BASIC in the early 1960s → brought into people’s homes in 1970s → Internet III. A retold version of the text WHO AM I? I, the computer, was a calculating machine in 1642 in France. Then I was built as an Analytical Machine in 1822, which was a technological revolution. I became a “universal machine” in 1936 to solve any mathematical problem. I was not very big at first then I became huge, the size of a large room before I was made smaller and smaller. Getting new transistors in 1960s I became clever and quicker. I was connected with other computers and turned out to part of a network in the early 1960s. Then I began talking to humans using BASIC in the early 1960s. In 1970s I was brought into people’s homes, and came the Internet. Section 2: Background information computers I. How Do Computers Work? Computer Basics To accomplish a task using a computer, you need a combination of hardware, software, and input. Hardware consists of devices, like the computer itself, the monitor, keyboard, printer, mouse and speakers. Inside your computer there are more bits of hardware, including the motherboard, where you would find the main processing chips that make up the central processing unit (CPU). The hardware processes the commands it receives from the software, and performs tasks or calculations. Software is the name given to the programs that you install on the computer to perform certain types of activities. There is operating system software, such as the Apple OS for a Macintosh, or Windows 95 or Windows 98 for a PC. There is also application software, like the games we play or the tools we use to compose letters or do math problems. You provide the input. When you type a command or click on an icon, you are telling the computer what to do. That is called input. How They Work Together First, you provide input when you turn on the computer. Then the system software tells the CPU to start up certain programs and to turn on some hardware devices so that they are ready for more input from you. This whole process is called booting up. The next step happens when you choose a program you want to use. You click on the icon or enter a command to start the program. Let’s use the example of an Internet browser. Once the program has started, it is ready for your instructions. You either enter an address (called a URL, which stands for Uniform Resource Locator), or click on an address you’ve saved already. In either case, the computer now knows what you want it to do. The browser software then goes out to find that address, starting up other hardware devices, such as a modem, when it needs them. If it is able to find the correct address, the browser will then tell your computer to send the information from the web page over the phone wire or cable to your computer. Eventually, you see the web site you were looking for. If you decide you want to print the page, you click on the printer icon. Again, you have provided input to tell the computer what to do. The browser software determines whether you have a printer attached to your computer, and whether it is turned on. It may remind you to turn on the printer, then send the information about the web page from your computer over the cable to the printer, where it is printed out. II. Television Old portable television A television (also TV or telly) is a device (tool) with a screen that receives broadcast signals and turns them into pictures and sound. The word “television” comes from the words tele (Greek for far away) and vision (seeing). Usually a TV looks like a box. Older TVs had large wooden frames and sat on the floor like furniture. Newer TVs became smaller so they could fit on shelves, or even portable so you could take it with you wherever you went. The smallest TVs can fit in your hand. The largest TVs can take up a whole wall in your house, and may sit on the floor, or be just a large flat screen that can be mounted on the wall. Many TVs are now made in wide screen shape like movie theatre screens, rather than old, more square TVs. A television has an antenna (or aerial), or it has a cable. This gets the signal from the air, or cable provider. TVs can also show movies from DVD players or VCRs. TVs can be connected to computers and game consoles, usually through a kind of socket called “SCART”. III. Web or World Wide Web The World Wide Web is the part of the Internet that contains web sites and web pages. It is not used to describe WebPages that are used offline where net services are not available, or no computer network exists - such as Wikipedia on CD. In this case no real physical site exists other than the place where the computer is. Blog and Wiki capabilities will also not be available because these require a communication with other computers. IV. Radio Radio is a communications invention. Though originally used to communicate between two people, it is now used to listen to music, news, and people talking. Radio shows were the predecessor to TV programs. V. DVD DVD most commonly stands for “digital versatile disk”. It can play video that is of a higher quality than a VHS tape. VI. Two kinds of DVD They can also hold 4.7 GB of information as opposed to the 700 MB that a CD can hold. A plus of using a DVD for a video is the ability to have interactive menus and bonus features such as deleted scenes and commentaries. VII. Email Email (electronic mail) is a message, usually text, sent from one Internet user to another. Email is quicker than snail mail(mail) when sending over long distances and is usually free. To send or receive an email, a computer with a modem and telephone line connected to the Internet, and an email program are required. Email addresses are generally formated like this: login@server.(com or fr or org or uk or other). Some companies let you send and receive email for free from a website. Gmail, Hotmail and Yahoo! do this. VIII. Human Here are two humans. A man is on the left and a woman is on the right. A human or human being is a person, like you. A male human is a man, a female human is a woman. If you think about all humans in the whole world, they are called humanity. In the past, people have also used man and mankind to mean all humans. Humans are called Homo sapiens by scientists. Humans are an animal species that belongs to the group called primates. Monkeys are primates too, but the primates most like people are gorillas and chimpanzees. Most scientists think that chimpanzees and humans came from a common ancestor by what is called evolution. Other animals even more like humans than chimpanzees once lived too, but they are now extinct. Human rights are those things that everyone deserves and the way they should be treated by other people.

这本书是他写的。(1) 把主动语态的宾语变为被动语态的主语。
(2) 把谓语变成被动结构(be+过去分词)
  (根据被动语态句子里的主语的人称和数,以及原来主动语态句子中动词的时态来决定be的形式)。 主动语态变被动语态的方法(3) 把主动语态中的主语放在介词by之后作宾语, 将主格改为宾格。例如:
  All the people laughed at him.
  He was laughed at by all people.
  They make the bikes in the factory.
  The bikes are made by them in the
factory.
  歌诀是:宾变主, 主变宾, by短语后面跟。
  谓语动词变被动, be后“过分”来使用。4) 双宾语动词变被动语态可将其中的一个宾语变为主语, 另一个保留不动。
主动:I have given him the key.
被动:He has been given the key.
被动:The key has been given (to) him.5) 带复合宾语的动词变被动语态时, 只能将宾语变为主语, 原来的宾补保留不动, 改称主语补足语。

[考例] My friend Martin was very sick with a strange fever; ______, he could neither eat nor sleep. (江西2005)
A. as a result B. after all
C. any way D. otherwise
[点拨] 考查短语辨析。as a result结果; after all毕竟; any way不管怎样;otherwise 否则。由句意可知要选as a result。 6. totally adv. 整个地;完全地
totally blind 全盲
total adj. 完全的; 整个的
total silence 寂静无声
in total 总共7. Over time my memory has developed so much that, ... I never forget anything I have been told.
[考点] so ... that ... 引导结果状语从句。
[考例1] The weather was ______ cold that I didn’t like to leave my room. (2008 全国卷I)
A. really B. such
C. too D. so[考例2] I haven’t seen Ann for ______ long that I’ve forgotten what she looks like. (四川2008)
A. such B. very
C. so D. too
[点拨] 两题都考查so ... that ... 的用法。8. And my memory became so large that even I couldn’t believe it!句型:so… that… 如此……以致于……与 too…to… 句型的相互转换And my memory became too large for me
to believe it.eg He is so old that he can’t carry the box.He is too old to carry the box. 此结构中的that从句表示结果。
The stone is so heavy that no one can lift it.
比较: so that 既可以表结果,也可以表目的。 so...that...结构的so+形容词/副词位于句首时,句子用倒装结构。
So hard does he work that he seldom goes home.9. But I was always so lonely standing there by myself, until in early 1960s they gave me a family connected by a network.
[点拨] until表示“直到……时”,在肯定句中,指从开始到结束的整段时间,谓语动词一般是延续性的。在否定句中构成not ... until,意为“直到……才”,指到某一点动作才开始,谓语动词一般是非延续性的。其强调句是it is (was) not until ... that ...。当not until位于句首时,句子要进行倒装。如:
The experts explored the island until the end of last year.
直到去年年底,专家们一直都在勘查这个小岛。
We didn’t solve the problem until Mr. Smith helped us.
直到史密斯先生帮助我们,我们才解决了那个问题。
It was not until last year that my hope became a reality.
Not until noon did it stop raining. 10. I have also been put into robots and used to make mobile phones as well as help with medical operations.1) help (sb) with sth 协助(某人)做某事
e.g. A man is helping the police with their enquiries.
有一男子在协助警方进行调查。2) as well as 也,还,而且e.g. He grows flowers as well as vegetables.She is a talented musician as well as being a photographer.3) 这个句子是现在完成时被动语态,其机
构是 (have/has +been + 过去分词)
e.g. The radio has been repaired when
we phoned the shop.[考例1] Professor James will give us a lecture on the Western culture, but when and where ______ yet. (浙江2007)
A. hasn’t been decided
B. haven’t decided
C. isn’t being decided
D. aren’t decided
[点拨] 本题考查动词的时态、语态及主谓一致。由yet可知要用完成时态,又因时间与地点是被决定的,故应用被动语态。此外,“在什么时候和什么地点(做报告)”是指同一件事,故用单数形式。 [考例2] When you get the paper back, pay special attention to what _______. (四川2007)
A. have marked
B. have been marked
C. had marked
D. had been marked
[点拨] 因mark 这一动作发生在get之前,且试卷是被批注,因此应用现在完成时的被动语态。[考例3] I got caught in the rain and
my suit ______. (北京2007)
has ruined
had ruined
C. has been ruined
D. had been ruined
[点拨] 句意为:我遭遇大雨,我的衣服
被淋坏了。ruin表示的动作发生在got
caught 之后,故排除B、D两项。此处
表示被动,所以C项正确。11. anyhow 无论如何
Anyhow, you can try. 无论如何你可以试试。
I don’t care what you say; I’m going to do it anyhow.
比较: somehow 意为“以某种方式;不知 怎么地”12. I am now truly filled with happiness that I am a devoted friend and helper of the human race!
[点拨] that引导同位语从句,具体说明happiness的内容。that是连词,在从句中不充当任何成分。英语中用that引导同位语从句的情况比较常见,但有时也可以用连接副(代)词 how, when, where, whether等来引导同位语从句。注意:if, which 不能引导同位语从句。如:
I had the impression that she chose her words with care.
在我的印象中,她选词很小心。
I heard the news that our team had won.
我听到了我们队获胜的消息。
l have no idea when he will be back.

9、so…that…
(1) so/such…that… 引导结果状语从句;
(2) 常见句型
so+
such+
a/an+adj.+单数可数名词+that-clause
adj.+复数名词+that-clause
adj.+不可数名词+that-clause
adj./adv.+that-clause
adj.+a/an+单数可数名词+that-clause
many/much/few/little(表示数量)
+n.+that-clause
(3) so…that有时可以与such…that互相替换,但such所修饰的名词必须是一个单数可数名词,且该名词前还带有表性质的形容词,即由“so+形容词+a/an+单数名词”转化为“such a/an+形容词+单数名词”。
This is such an interesting book/so interesting a book that all the students in our class want to read it.
这本书是这么的好看,我们班的所有学生都想看。
(4) 倒装问题
在这一结构中,“so+adj. /adv.”或 “such + 名词词组”置于句首加强语气时,主句要用部分倒装。
你知道such /so…that… 与 such/ so…as…有什么区别吗?
(1) He is such a warm-hearted teacher ______ the students respect.
(2) He is such a warm-hearted teacher ______ the students respect him.
A. that B. which C. as D. what
在这一句式结构中,是用that还是用as取决于从句部分是否完整。从句部分完整的是结果状语从句,用that;从句部分不完整的是定语从句,用as。
题(1)从句respect 后缺少宾语,不完整,是定语从句,所以答案是C。题(2)从句部分完整,是结果状语从句,所以答案是A。
A 考查so/such…that…句型结构。因为此处weather是中心词,但它为不可数名词,所以不能加冠词。
单项填空
(  )(1)— What a beautiful day!
— Yes, it's ______that I'd like to take a walk.
A. such nice weather B. so a nice weather
C. too nice weather D. nice weather so
C 考查倒装。so that, such that 的句子结构中,若so, such 和与其所修饰的词置于句首,用部分倒装,又sudden是形容词,作表语,所以选C。
(  )(2) So sudden ______that the enemy had no time to escape.
A. did the attack B. the attack did
C. was the attack D. the attack was
(  )1. (2009· 湖北)In our class, when the bell rang and the teacher closed his book, it was a ______ for everyone to stand up.

A. to deal with B. dealing with
C. to be dealt with D. dealt with
