四、我的疑问:
_____________________________________________________________________________
_____________________________________________________________________________
课内探究
一、情景导入
全班合作找出本课重要语言点
二、质疑探究
(一) 语言知识点
1. I’m planning to travel from London to Amsterdam. 我正在计划从伦敦旅行至阿姆斯特丹。
plan在此句中作动词,表示“计划,打算”,常用短语plan to do sth. / plan for sth.表示“计划做某事”。
plan也可以做名词,是可数的,常用短语a / the plan for sth.“……的计划”。
牛刀小试:What’s your ________ ________ the _________, Lingling
玲玲,你的周末计划是怎样的呢?
Most of my classmates ________ _________ ________ take a trip during the holiday.
我的大多数同学都在计划暑假去旅行。
2. How long does the journey take and what is the best way to travel
旅程花费多长时间呢?旅行的最好方式是什么?
It takes you about twelve hours to get there.
到那儿花费你大约十二个小时。
① 两个句子中的take都意为“花费(时间)”,某事或做某事作为句子的主语,因此其主语常常是名词或不定式。It takes (sb.) + 时间段 + to do sth.表示“做某事花费(某人)…时间”。
如:The journey from Chengdu to New York by plane takes about twenty hours.
翻译:_____________________________________________________________________
= _______ _______ about twenty hours _______ travel from Chengdu to New York by plane.
② way名词,“道路;方式,方法”,固定搭配the way to sp.“去某地的路”,the way to do sth. / the way of doing sth.“做某事的方式/方法”。
牛刀小试:Excuse me. Which is ________ ________ _________ Chongbai Supermarket
打扰一下,请问去重百超市怎么走?
It’s ________ ________ way ________ ________ English.
这是学习英语的一个好方法。
3. The more information, the better. 越多信息越好。
此句结构 “The + 比较级…, the + 比较级….” 意为“越……越……”,前后关联。如:
The more carefully you listen to the teacher, the better you learn.
你越认真听老师讲课,你就学得越好。
The sooner we finish the work, the better it is. (The sooner, the better.)
我们越快完成这项工作越好。
牛刀小试:翻译句子:
越远越危险。 ________________________________________________
越干净越健康。 ______________________________________________
4. A journey by train is more relaxing than by coach, but a lot more expensive.
乘火车旅行比乘长途汽车更令人放松,却昂贵得多。
从此句可以看出________________可以修饰比较级,表示“________________”。
拓展:very (很,非常), quiet (十分,相当), really (确实)修饰形容词、副词时只能是原级;
a lot (许多), much (…得多), even (更), far (…得多)修饰形容词、副词时只能是比较级;
a little (一点), a bit (一点)修饰形容词、副词时既可以是原级,也可以修饰比较级。
牛刀小试:Playing the violin is _________ ________ ________ than listening to music.
拉小提琴比听音乐有趣得多。
Our journey was ________ ________ ________ than theirs.
我们的旅程比他们的稍微长一点。
5. However, it will not cost as much as going by train.
然而,这(乘长途汽车)将不如乘火车花费得多。
① however副词,“然而”,表转折,常单独使用逗号隔开,可以位于句首、居中或句末。
② cost在此句中作动词,意为“花费(金钱),价格是”,可见,其主语是事物。如:
—How much does the house cost 这房子花了多少钱?
—It cost about six hundred thousand. 花了约六十万。
拓展:辨析cost / take / spend / pay :
动词 对 象 主 语 搭 配
__________ 时间 / 金钱 某人 _________ … on sth. _________ … (in) doing sth.
__________ 金钱 某人 __________ … for sth.
__________ 金钱 某物 Sth. _________ (sb.) …
__________ 时间 某事/ 做某事 Sth. _________ (sb.) …_______________________________________
牛刀小试:A house ____________ too much and I can’t afford one.
一所房子花费太多,我买不起。
We ___________ an hour ___________ exercise.
我们明天花一小时锻炼。
The trip ____________ a long time, so we were very tired.
旅行花了很长时间,所以我们很疲倦。
Daming ___________ thirty dollars for the present for his mother.
大明花了三十美元给她妈妈买这份礼物。
6. You may have to wait for hours at the airport because of bad weather.
由于糟糕的天气,你也许不得不在机场等待几个小时。
because of … 是短语介词,后面接名词或动名词作宾语,意为“因为…,由于…”;而because是连词,用于连接表原因的句子。
牛刀小试:I didn’t go to the party last night _________________ I didn’t feel well.
Their plan didn’t come true ________________ the heavy rain.
(二) 语法探究
结合课本语法部分本模块语法讲解探讨关于形容词、副词最高级的用法
注意:1. 比较级或最高级都需要有一定的比较范围:比较级适用于两者之间的比较,两个团体无论成员多少都是为两者,而最高级适用于三者及以上范围之间的比较;
2. 形容词最高级作定语时前面必须有定冠词the,其它情况及副词最高级可以不用。
谚语:East or west, home is the best. 金窝银窝不如自己的狗窝。
