Michael McConnell
My favorite joke was the one played on an old workmate called
James. He was always late into the office. He was told to be early
the next morning（on April 1st，of course） because his team was
going to hold an important meeting. Of course，when he got into the
meeting room，his team head said he was an April fool. But at least
it got him into work on time for a change！
Richard Hawley
My students prepared a fake（假装的） fight in the class. They

When I was younger，the day before my 8th birthday party，

I overslept this morning because I stayed up late last night. I washed my face and brushed my teeth as soon as possible. I had no time to have breakfast. Then I left home and ran towards the bus stop. Unluckily, when I got to the bus stop, the bus had left. As a result, I arrived late for school. I was so sleepy that I couldn’t pay attention to what the teacher said in maths class. My maths teacher asked me a question but I couldn’t answer it. It made me feel embarrassed.
What an unlucky day I had today!

语法要点
1. 过去完成时的基本用法。
2. 复习一般过去时。
3. invention和discovery的用法区别。
4. 前缀over-，dis-和后缀-able的构词法。(共25张PPT)
Unit 12 Life is full of the unexpected.
知识概要
课时讲练
1.When I got to school, I realized I had left my backpack at home. 当我到达学校，才意识到我把书包忘在家里了。
left是leave的过去分词，在句中意为“忘记带；遗留；落下”，leave表示这一意义时后面一般有表示地点的词，即把东西“落”在某个地方了。如果句中没有表示地点的词，就用forget。例如：
Section A（第一、二课时）
Jack forgot his English dictionary this morning.杰克今天早上忘记带英语词典了。
（句中没有地点，用forget。）
She left her Chinese book at home this morning.今天早上她把语文课本忘在家里了。
（句中有地点at home，用leave。）
2.I overslept.我睡过头了。
前缀over-经常在动词、名词或形容词等前，表示“过分，过度”。例如：
study →overstudy（用功过度）
work →overwork（过度劳累）
act →overact（将……表演得过火）
dose（剂量） →overdose（药物过量）
weight →overweight（超重）
crowded →overcrowded（过度拥挤的，挤满的）
3.By the time I got up, my brother had already gotten in the shower.在我起床之前，我弟弟已经开始洗淋浴了。
（1）by the time的意思是“在……以前，到……的时候”，其后常接句子，用来限定时间。当by the time后所接句子的谓语动词是过去式，即用一般过去时，主句通常用过去完成时。例如：
By the time I got to the cinema, the film had been on for ten minutes.我到电影院时，电影已经开始十分钟了。
（2）过去完成时的用法。
①概念：表示动作或状态发生或存在于过去某个时间以前，即“过去的过去”。
②过去完成时的各种句式结构。
过去完成时是由“助动词had+动词的过去分词”构成的，had用于各种人称和数。
肯定句：主语+had+动词的过去分词+其他.
否定句：主语+had+not+动词的过去分词+其他.
一般疑问句：Had+主语+动词的过去分词+其他？
肯定回答：Yes，主语+had.
否定回答：No，主语+hadn’t.
特殊疑问句：特殊疑问词或词组+一般疑问句？
被动语态：主语+had（not）+been+动词的过去分词+其他.
例如：
Frank said that he had not seen the film before.弗兰克说他以前没看过这部电影。
By the end of last month, I had read 20 novels in English.到上个月底为止，我已经读了20本英语小说。
When I got to the railway station, the train had left.当我到达火车站时，火车已经开走了。
4.We stared in disbelief at the black smoke rising above the burning building. 我们疑惑地盯着从着火的大楼上升起的黑烟。
（1）disbelief是名词belief加前缀dis-构成的派生词。belief意为“信念，信仰，相信”，加上否定前缀dis-构成的词表示否定、相反的意思。例如：
like（喜欢） →dislike（不喜欢）
order（秩序） →disorder（无秩序）
honest（诚实的） →dishonest（不诚实的）
appear（出现）→disappear（消失）
advantage（优点） →disadvantage（缺点；不利条件；损失）
（2）above意为“在……上方；高于”，表示位置较高，但不一定是正上方。例如：
I raise my hands above my head.我把双手举过头顶。
The top of the tree is above the tops of the other trees.这棵树的顶部在其他树的顶部之上。
【辨析】方位介词over，on，under，below的用法区别。
①over指垂直的上方；而on表示有接触面，即在平面上放着。例如：
There is a bridge over the river.河上有一座桥。
There is a boat on the river.河上有一条船。
②under和below意为“在……下面”。under指在垂直的下方，其反义词是over；below指位置较低，但不一定在正下方，其反义词是above。例如：
My football is under the desk.我的足球在桌子下面。
Please sign your name below the line.请在线下签上你的名字。
5.The other planes were full so I had to wait till the next day. 其余的飞机也都满员了，我只好等到第二天。
till用作介词，意为“直到”，后面常接名词。till用于肯定句时，谓语动词通常是延续性动词；till用于否定句时，谓语动词通常是瞬间动词，构成“not...till...”结构，意为“直到……才……”。例如：
The young man danced till midnight.那个年轻人跳舞直到半夜。
Jim didn’t arrive till ten o’clock.吉姆直到十点才到。
【拓展】till还可作连词，用法与其作介词时相似，后接句子。例如：
Betty didn’t go to bed till her father came back.直到爸爸回来，贝蒂才上床睡觉。
We didn’t start our work till the rain stopped.直到雨停了我们才开始工作。
