这个句子中，smaller 是 small 的比较级，better是good的比较级。
这种结构为 “比较级 + and + 比较级”，表示 “越来越……”。
类似的用法还有：
Computers are getting smaller and better.
The kite flies higher and higher.
风筝飞得越来越高。
加more变成比较级的形容词或副词，使用这个结构时应为：
more and more + 形容词/副词原形。
Computers become more and more important in our daily life.
calculate及物动词, 常作“计算”、“核算” 讲。如：
We’ll need to calculate the overall costs.
我们需要算出总费用。 He calculated at a faster speed than any other students in his class.
他比班里任何一个同学都算得快。
calculate 还有“估计、预测、推测” 的意思。如：
She calculated how much gas we needed for our trip.
她估计我们这次旅程需用多少天然气。
3. We can use computers to calculate.
4. In addition, computers can do important jobs like operating railways and flying planes and spaceships.
in addition 意为“除……以外（还）”，用来引出另一种情况作为补充。如：
There are many shops around the railway station. In addition, there are some hotels.
火车站附近有很多商店。此外，还有一些旅馆。
The garden has a lot of flowers. In addition, it has some vegetables.
这个花园有大量的鲜花。此外，还有一些蔬菜。
另外，in addition to是介词短语，后面跟名词或代词等作宾语，也意“除……之外（还）”。如：
In addition to English, he has to study a second foreign language.
除英语外，他还得学一门第二外语。
5. Computers may change our lives, but will they make them better
“make sb./sth. +形容词”意为“使某人/某物……”。与make相关的常用结构还有make sb. do sth.，意为“使某人做某事”。如：

An email about monitors

How much 1,200 1,298
How many we have sold this month 38 50
Top Office found that they did not have any C4091 monitors, so Tom Green, a salesman, wrote an email to Mabel Wang. Look at the table and complete Tom’s emails to Mabel.

The C4095 is a 19-inch monitor, so it is bigger than the C4091.
The C4095 weighs 4 kg, so it is lighter than the C4091. The C4095 costs 1,298 yuan, so it is a little more expensive than the C4091. We have sold 50 C4095 monitors and 38 C4091 monitors this month, so the C4095 is more popular than the C4091.

1. To learn to use extra stress
2. To learn to use computers at home
Objectives
Stress nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs and numbers.
Do not stress words like a, the, is and have except for special reasons.
Extra stress
We already know two rules about sentence stress
Here is a third rule:
Give extra stress to the most important word in the sentence. You, the speaker, must decide what the most important word is.
A1
Read the conversation below and practise it in pairs. Give extra stress to the words underlined twice.
Amy: What do you think of computers, Frank Are they cleverer than human beings
Frank: No, I don’t think so.
Amy: Why not Computers can do a lot of things!
Frank: Maybe, but human beings created computers!
Amy: That’s true.
A2
Read the conversation below and draw an extra line under the words you would give extra stress to. Then practise it in pairs.
Frank: Which kind of computers are better, desktops or laptops
Amy: Laptops, I think.
Frank: Why
Amy: Laptops are lighter. They’re easier to carry around than desktops!
Frank: Yes, but desktops are often cheaper than laptops. And I don’t really have much money.
Amy: Well, then a desktop is probably a better choice for you.
1. Role play the conversation in groups;
2. Role play the conversation in front of the class
Let’s see which group does the best.
Do you often go to the cinema
Where else can we watch a film How
What do you usually do on the computer
watch a film
play games
computer shopping
chat
get information
B Speak up
B1
In groups, do a survey about using computers at home. Use the following questions to help you. You must add at least one more question of your own.
1 Do you have a computer at home
2 How often do you use the computer
3 What do you usually do on the computer
4 How much time do you spend playing computer games every week
5 How do you use the computer to help you study
6 Your own question(s): ________________
_____________________________________
B2
Go around the class and interview other students. Make notes of their answers. Then each group should report their findings to the class. Use the following plan to help you.
We found that … of the class have computers at home.
… use computers almost every day, and … don’t use computer very often.

old older oldest 一般的单音节词在词尾加er或est。
nice nicer nicest 以不发音的e结尾的词只加r或st。
thin thinner thinnest 以重读闭音节结尾，且词尾只有一个辅音字母的词，双写这个辅音字母，再加er或est。
slim slimmer slimmest
busy busier busiest 以辅音字母加y结尾的词，改y为i, 再加er或est。
beautiful more
beautiful most
beautiful 多音节和部分双
音节词在其前面
