People from all over the country and other areas gave their hands to help those in need. Although natural disasters are relentless, the world is full of love.2. Invite some Ss to share their answers in class. Answers will vary.Step 4 Grammar focus1. Let Ss read the Grammar table and summarize.过去进行时1. 构成及用法过去进行时由“was / were +动词-ing”构成，表示在过去某一时刻或某一段时间正在进行的动作。常与过去进行时连用的时间状语有at eight / nine ... (o’clock) yesterday morning, at that time，from eight to ten yesterday morning等。【例句】Alice was doing her homework at six yesterday evening.Alice昨天晚上六点正在做作业。Mike and his brother were playing soccer from three to four yesterday afternoon.昨天下午三点到四点间Mike正和他的兄弟踢足球呢。2. 句式肯定式：主语+was/were+动词-ing (+其他).【例句】I was swimming at that time.那时我正游泳呢。否定式:主语+wasn’t/weren’t +动词-ing (+其他). 【例句】They weren’t listening to music at ten yesterday morning.昨天上午十点钟他们没有听音乐。疑问式:Was / Were+主语+动词-ing (+其他) 其肯定回答为：Yes, 主语(人称代词)+ was / were.否定回答为：No, 主语(人称代词)+ wasn’t / weren’t. 【例句】—Was Joe reading at the time of the rainstorm 暴风雨来临的时候Joe正在读书吗？—Yes, he was. / No, he wasn’t.是的，他在读。/不，他没有读。3.现在进行时与过去进行时的区别现在进行时（Present Progressive Tense）过去进行时（Past Progressive Tense）用法表示现在或最近正在进行和发生的动作表示在过去的某个时间正在进行或发生的动作构成be (am/is/are) + doing (动词-ing形式)be (was/were) + doing (动词-ing形式)时间now (或引起注意的look、listen等动词)at eight last night, at the time of the rainstorm, when the rainstorm came, while he was sleeping3. when和while的区别：(1) when既可指时间点，也可指一段时间，while只指一段时间，因此when引导的时间状语从句中的谓语动词可以是非延续性动词，也可以是延续性动词，而while引导的从句中的谓语动词必须是延续性动词。 (2) when 说明从句的动作和主句的动作可以同时发生，也可以先后发生；while 则强调主句的动作在从句动作发生的过程中发生或主从句两个动作同时发生。 (3) 在含有when引导的时间状语从句的主从复合句中，主句用过去进行时，从句应用一般过去时；如果从句和主句的动作同时发生，且二者都用过去进行时，从句多用while引导。【例句】When the teacher came in, we were talking. 老师进来时，我们正在说话。当此句改变主从句的位置时，则为：While we were talking, the teacher came in. Step 5 PracticeWork on 4a1. Let Ss write sentences with both while and when. Then ask them to write as many sentences as they can. 2.Ask some students to read their sentences.Work on 4b1.Fill in the blanks with was, were, when or while.2.Check the answer.Answers:While, was, was, While, When, was, was, wereStep 6 Group work1. Let Ss fill in the chart.2. Read the conversation in 4c.3. Ask Ss to make their own conversations according to the conversation in 4c and their chart.4. Invite some Ss to act out in class.Step 7 Language points1. make sure 确认，查明，核实；确保；设法保证其后可接句子，或接介词of及宾语，用来引入需要确认的内容。【例句】Could you make sure what time he’s arriving 你能确认一下他几点到达吗？Make sure you turn off the TV before you leave the house. 在你离开屋子前确认关了电视。2. Ben was helping his mom make dinner when the rain began to beat heavily against the window.beat作动词，可意为 “敲打；锤砸”。【例句】The rain beat against the windows.beat作动词，可意为 “打败；取胜”。【例句】I can easily beat him at golf.beat作动词，可意为 “(心)跳动”。【例句】Her heart beat so quickly that she could hardly breathe.3. It was hard to have fun with a serious storm happening outside.外面正有暴风雨，很难玩得开心。It is adj.+ to do sth. 做……怎么样。It is adj. for sb. to do sth. 对某人来说做……怎么样。【例句】It is important for us to learn English. 对我们来说学英语很重要。4. die down逐渐变弱；逐渐消失【例句】When you saw him, his anger had died down a bit.你看见他的时候，他的火气已经下去了。与die 相关的短语:die away 逐渐减弱；逐渐模糊die out 灭绝；消失die of/ from 死于……Step 8 SummaryToday we have learned some new words and phrases and the differences between present progressive tense and past progressive tense. Remember them and use them often in your conversations.

Invite several pairs to share in class.【设计意图】通过while与when造句进行口语表达，在提升学生口语表达能力的同时，增强学生的合作意识。Step 6 Language points1. 过去进行时与一般过去时的区别：(1) 过去进行时表示在过去某一时刻或某一段时间内正在进行或发生的动作；一般过去时表示过去某个时间发生的动作或存在的状态。【例句】He was writing a composition at eight o’clock last night.他昨晚8点钟在写作文。He wrote a composition last night. 他昨晚写了一篇作文。(2) 表示过去的状态、感觉及心理活动的静态动词（如be，like，love，hate，hear，see，know，want）可用于一般过去时，但通常不用于过去进行时。【例句】I hated it when a man spoke with his mouth full of food. 我讨厌人们说话时满嘴食物。(3) 一般过去时与always连用时，表示过去经常性、习惯性的动作；而过去进行时与 always连用时，常带有感彩。【例句】He always got up at six last year. 他去年总是6点起床。He was always thinking of his work. 他总是一心想着工作。Step 7 SummaryIn this class we practiced listening skills.

(2) 如果从句和主句的动作同时发生，两句都用过去进行时的时候，多用while引导。【例句】They were singing while we were dancing. 当我们跳舞的时候他们在唱歌
