Careless Jack
My friend Jack was always having accidents. He did not pay attention to where he was going or what he was doing.
A few months ago, a car hit him while he was on his way home from school. The driver was a bit tired, so he did not see Jack. And Jack was talking on his mobile phone and was riding in the middle of the road. The car hit him. He broke his leg and was in hospital for over a month.
Last week, he fell down a hole in the park. As usual, he was not looking where he was going. Some kind-hearted people in the park helped him climb out of the hole and then took him to hospital because he was in a lot of pain. Luckily, he did not break an arm or a leg. At the hospital, the doctors gave him some medicine and then he went home.
I always told him to be careful, but he did not
listen to me. After the two accidents, he promised
to take my advice. Now he is very careful.

Around the w rld
An emergency landing
US Airways Flight 1549 took off as usual from an airport in New York. But after only three minutes, the plane was hit by a large number of birds. The pilot, Chesley Sullenberger, had to make a quick decision to avoid a terrible disaster. He and the crew kept calm and he carefully made an emergency landing on the Hudson River. All the passengers left the plane safely. When reporters interviewed him, he said, “ I was just doing my job.”
Module task: Writing a news report about an accident.
1 When and where did it happen
2 Why did it happen
3 How did it happen
4 What happened after the accident
8. Think about a recent accident you know. Write notes.
Three o’clock this afternoon; on the motorway between London and Cambridge
The driver drove too fast; the driver didn't watch the traffic in front of him.
The car in front of him slowed down to avoid a rabbit
The driver apologized to other driver.
1 A terrible accident happened at…
2 (Name) was…
3 He / She was not…
4 The accident happened because…
5 After the accident…
9. Use your notes and write sentences for your news report about the accident.
A terrible accident happened at three o’clock this afternoon on the motorway between London and Cambridge.
James Brown was driving too fast along the road.
He was not watching the traffic in front of him.
4. The accident happened because the car in front of
him slowed down to avoid a rabbit that was
running across the road.
5. After the accident, Mr. Brown apologised to the
other driver.
10. Join the sentences you wrote in Activity
9 and write your report. Use when, while,
so, because and then.
11. Read out your report to the class.
1. A few months ago,a car hit him while he was on his way home from school.
on one's way to意为“在某人去……的路上”。
当其后接home、here、there等地点副词时,要省略to。
例:On her way to school,she found a set of keys.
在她上学的路上,她发现了一串钥匙。
重难句探究
2. He broke his leg and was in hospital for over a month.
(1)break v. 打破,折断,弄坏。它的过去式是broke,
过去分词是broken。
例:Tom broke a window yesterday.昨天汤姆打碎
了一扇窗户。
(2)辨析 in hospital与in the hospital
in hospital的意思是“住院”,指因身体不适而进
入医院,此时hospital是一个抽象名词。
in the hospital的意思是“在医院”,可能是在医
院办事,此时hospital是一个具体的地点名词。
3. After the two accidents,he promised to take my
advice.
promise v. 答应,许诺。
常用短语:promise (sb.) to do sth.答应(某人)做某事。
例:She's promised to do all she can to help.
她答应尽力帮忙。
4. But after only three minutes,the plane was hit by
a large number of birds.
a number of 意为“很多,大量,许多”,相当于
many,修饰可数名词复数。它作主语时,谓语动词
用复数。number前可用large、great、small、good、
certain等词修饰。
例:A number of students were absent from the meeting.
很多学生没有来参加会议。
[拓展]
the number of意为“……的数量”。其后接可数名词复数,作主语时,谓语动词用单数。
5. He and the crew kept calm and he carefully made
an emergency landing on the Hudson River.
keep v. 保持
“keep+形容词”意为“保持某种状态”。
例:Please keep quiet/silent! 请保持安静!
【拓展】①keep+sb./sth.+形容词,使某人/物保持某种状态。
例:These gloves will keep your hands warm.
这种手套能保暖。
②keep doing sth.一直做某事。
例:If you keep practising your spoken English, you'll soon make great progress.
如果你坚持练习英语口语,你很快就会取得很大的进步。
③keep...from doing sth.阻止……做某事。
例:The heavy rain didn't keep them from watching the football match.
大雨没能阻止他们观看足球赛。
④keep作动词还可意为“饲养”。
例:My family used to keep sheep in my childhood.
我小时候家里养过羊。
活动小结
通过以上的活动,我们可以知道:
on one's way to意为“在某人去……的路上”。
promise v. 答应,许诺; promise (sb.) to do sth.答应(某人)做某事。
a number of 意为“很多,大量,许多”,相当于many,修饰可数名词复数。它作主语时,谓语动词 用复数。number前可用large、great、small、good、 certain等词修饰。
①keep+sb./sth.+形容词,使某人/物保持某种状态。
②keep doing sth.一直做某事。
③keep...from doing sth.阻止……做某事。
④keep作动词还可意为“饲养”。
探究二
1.过去进行时是指在过去的某一时间进行或发生的动作或事情,可以和at…yesterday morning;at that time;from nine to ten last night等时间状语连用。
过去进行时
如:
We were watching TV from six to nine last night.
昨晚6点到9点,我们在看电视。
What was he researching all day last Sunday
上周日一整天他在研究什么?
2.过去进行时还可以和when,while,as引导的时间状语从句连用,形成复合句。如:
(1)While the lights were changing to red,a car suddenly appeared round the corner.
正当交通信号灯要变成红灯的时候,一辆小轿车突然从拐角处驶出来。
(2)One day, when Henry was working in a restaurant, a snake suddenly appeared.
一天,当亨利正在餐馆里工作时,一条蛇突然出现。
(3)I was trying to pick it up when it bit me again.
当我正试图捡起它,这时它又咬了我一口。
(4)As the doctors were checking him,the pain got worse.
医生给他做检查时,疼痛加剧。
3.when,while,as都可以引导时间状语从句,但用法区别
非常大。
(1)when可以和延续性动词连用,也可以和短暂性动词连用;而while和as只能和延续性动词连用。如:
They arrived while we were having dinner.
=They arrived when we were having dinner.
我们吃饭的时候他们到了。
(2)由when引导的时间状语从句,如果主句是过去进行时,从句应该用一般过去时,表示一个动作正在进行的时候另一个动作突然发生了,强调后一动作发生的突然性。如:
We were talking when the teacher came in.
我们正在讲话,老师(突然)进来了。
(3)当主句和从句的动作都是延续的或同时发生的,两句都用过去进行时的时候,多用while引导。如:
They were singing while we were dancing.
他们在唱歌,我们在跳舞。
活动小结
通过以上的活动,我们可以知道:
1.过去进行时是指在过去的某一时间进行或发生的动作或事情。
2.过去进行时还可以和when,while,as引导的时间状语从句连用,形成复合句。
3.when,while,as都可以引导时间状语从句,但用法区别
非常大。
