听力中的逻辑关系
通常情况下,在做听力题的时候常需要注意句子间的逻辑关系,通过逻辑关系来确定答案。常见的逻辑关系词语有:
1.表示转折和对比关系:but, however, nevertheless, while, in fact, whereas, unexpectedly, unfortunately, yet, except, on the other hand, compared to, unlike, instead, in contrast to等。
2.表示因果关系:as a result, since, due to, because of, therefore, thus, so等。
3.表示否定:not, no, rarely, seldom, never等。
转折、因果、否定部分的内容一般是说话人强调的内容,也是考查的重点,所以当我们听到表示这些逻辑关系的词汇时,一定要注意,一般就是答案区间所在。

写作项目——Write a sci fi short story
本单元的写作任务是写一篇科幻故事。 此类写作属于想象类作文,要求学生根据已有的生活经验和知识,发挥想象力,构思出从未经历过的故事情节或描绘从未见过的生活场景,从而创作出富有想象力的故事。想象故事情节必须合理而且内容丰富,其中多采用细节描写来展开故事情节。
由教材学写作
一、学写作架构
 阅读课文,总结本课的篇章结构如下:
二、学细节描写
描述故事过程时常采用细节描写的写作手法,通过描写人物的语言、行动、心理活动等使情节生动形象。如本文注重对时间旅行的感觉和作者心理的生动描述。这些描述突出了“史上第一台时间机器”的特征,刻画了“我”的小心、谨慎以及对探索未知的好奇。同时,这些细节描述为后续故事情节也增加了悬念与阅读期待。
1.通过视觉感知:night came、came the day、skipped to day、trees growing like puffs of smoke、huge buildings rise up 等。
2.站在太空视角,感受地球沧海桑田变幻:The whole surface of the earth was being changed, melting and flowing before my eyes。
3.与心理活动相关:I calculated ... I had a strong urge to ... I had thought about the risk ...等。
4.采用动作链细化动作:操作机器过程中使用了gave it a last check、 sat myself in the leather seat、 pushed the starting lever、 forwards an inch then immediately backwards again、 drew a breath等。
仿写训练/完成句子
①I ____________ Dad, proudly ____________ my own money and __________ it to him.
我走近父亲,骄傲地拿出我自己的钱并递给他。
②__________ his ladder against the wall, he __________ and __________ over.
他把梯子靠在墙上,爬上去并往外看。
三、学修辞手法
在科幻故事写作中运用修辞手法,有助于提高语言的表达效果,使故事情节更为生动形象,帮助读者更容易理解未知事物。如:
1.比喻:It felt like I was being driven fast on a winding road.
The sun and moon looked as if they were being thrown across the sky, but soon there was division between night and day. Around me I saw trees growing like puffs of smoke; they grew, spread, and died in moments.
2.夸张:I calculated that I was being pushed through time at hundreds of years a minute.
3.拟人: ... the first of all Time Machines began its career.
仿写训练/翻译句子
①The bus full of passengers went slowly as a snail went.
 
 
②Life is an unexplored river, full of twists and turns.
 
③I beg a thousand pardons.
 
④I was very happy and could hear the birds singing in the woods.
我很开心,并且能听到____________________。

(二)主题语段
1.飞碟与外星人
It was hot at night and I couldn't fall asleep in the tent, so I crawled out of the tent and walked around to cool down. The sky was clear and stars were shining. Suddenly a bright light flashed across the sky and then near my tent appeared a flying saucer, which looked just like the one in the book I had read during the day. I quickly hid behind a stone and saw an alien come down through a round door. He walked into my tent and came out with something in his hand. The UFO then flew away. I immediately ran into my tent and found that my cellphone was gone. I was so puzzled that I couldn't believe what I had seen. But I decided that the next time the alien came, I would talk to him.
晚上很热,我在帐篷里睡不着,所以我爬出帐篷,四处走走凉快一下。天空晴朗,星星闪烁。突然,一道亮光划过天空,然后在我的帐篷附近出现了一个飞碟,看起来就像我白天读过的书里的那个。我迅速躲到一块石头后面,看到一个外星人从一个圆形的门下来。他走进我的帐篷,手里拿着什么东西出来了。然后不明飞行物飞走了。我立刻跑进帐篷,发现我的手机不见了。我很困惑,我不能相信我所看到的。但我决定下次外星人来的时候,我会和他谈谈。
2.漂浮城市
When I opened my eyes, I arrived in a brand new floating city, located on a man made island which was most entirely covered in the vegetation. In the city, many strange carriage like small planes were floating above the ground. When I drove one to visit the city, I felt I went through a beautiful garden. There was a huge tower in the city centre acting both as the workplace and housing for its citizens. The city used solar, wind and wave power to keep it functioning and used its large gardens to supply food. In this city where robots were easy to see everywhere, people were working busily at a rapid pace and, of course, robots became helpful assistants. After hanging around the city for several hours, the time machine transported me back to reality.
当我睁开眼睛时,我来到了一个全新的漂浮城市。它位于一个几乎完全被植被覆盖的人造岛屿上。在城市里,许多奇怪的像马车一样的小飞机漂浮在地面上。当我开着一辆去参观这座城市时,我感觉自己穿过了一个美丽的花园。市中心有一座巨大的塔楼,既是市民的工作场所,也是他们的住所。这座城市利用太阳能、风能和波浪能来维持其运转,并利用其大型花园来供应食物。在这个机器人随处可见的城市里,人们以快速的节奏忙碌地工作,当然,机器人也成了有用的助手。在城市里转了几个小时后,时光机把我带回了现实。

(Text 7)
There are plenty of mysteries of this planet. One of them that have been explained, however,is the mystery of the Bermuda Triangle. The Bermuda Triangle is an area between three points in the Atlantic Ocean that create a triangle. It has been said that throughout history, ⑧many ships and boats have gone missing there, never to be found again. ⑨It was first mentioned by a famous explorer in the 1400s, who said he saw a “great ball of fire” in the ocean. It was again referred to by the famous writer Shakespeare in the 1600s, in one of his books. But it didn't become a popular story until 1918, when an American ship disappeared in the area with 300 men on board. So why have there been all these reports of missing planes and ships Luckily, today we know the real answer. First, ⑩the area is well known for stormy waters and bad weather. Second, many inexperienced sailors have gotten lost because of poor sailing equipment and the lack of fuel. And finally, accidents are common in the sea. In fact, there are just as many accidents in other parts of the ocean as there are in the Bermuda Triangle. So, if you are planning to take a boat ride through the area, just make sure to be safe!

It has been said that throughout history, ⑧many ships and boats have gone missing there, never to be found again.⑨It was first mentioned by a famous explorer in the 1400s, who said he saw a “great ball of fire” in the ocean.
It was again referred to by the famous writer Shakespeare in the 1600s, in one of his books. But it didn't become a popular story until 1918, when an American ship disappeared in the area with 300 men on board. So why have there been all these reports of missing planes and ships Luckily, today we know the real answer. First,
⑩the area is well-known for stormy waters and bad weather. Second, many inexperienced sailors have gotten lost because of poor sailing equipment and the lack of fuel. And finally, accidents are common in the sea. In fact, there are just as many accidents in other parts of the ocean as there are in the Bermuda Triangle. So, if you are planning to take a boat ride through the area, just make sure to be safe!

写作项目——Write a sci-fi short story
本单元的写作任务是写一篇科幻故事。 此类写作属于想象类作文,要求学生根据已有的生活经验和知识,发挥想象力,构思出从未经历过的故事情节或描绘从未见过的生活场景,从而创作出富有想象力的故事。想象故事情节必须合理而且内容丰富,其中多采用细节描写来展开故事情节。
No.2 促写作/写作增分途径“多仿写”
由教材学写作
一、学写作架构
 阅读课文,总结本课的篇章结构如下:
二、学细节描写
描述故事过程时常采用细节描写的写作手法,通过描写人物的语言、行动、心理活动等使情节生动形象。如本文注重对时间旅行的感觉和作者心理的生动描述。这些描述突出了“史上第一台时间机器”的特征,刻画了“我”的小心、谨慎以及对探索未知的好奇。同时,这些细节描述为后续故事情节也增加了悬念与阅读期待。
1.通过视觉感知:night came、came the day、skipped to day、trees growing like puffs of smoke、huge buildings rise up 等。
2.站在太空视角,感受地球沧海桑田变幻:The whole surface of the earth was being changed, melting and flowing before my eyes。
3.与心理活动相关:I calculated ... I had a strong urge to ... I had thought about the risk ...等。
4.采用动作链细化动作:操作机器过程中使用了gave it a last check、 sat myself in the leather seat、 pushed the starting lever、 forwards an inch then immediately backwards again、 drew a breath等。
仿写训练/完成句子
①I __________ Dad, proudly __________ my own money and ______ it to him.
我走近父亲,骄傲地拿出我自己的钱并递给他。
②_______ his ladder against the wall, he _______and ______over.
他把梯子靠在墙上,爬上去并往外看。
approached
took out of
handed
Putting
climbed
peered
三、学修辞手法
在科幻故事写作中运用修辞手法,有助于提高语言的表达效果,使故事情节更为生动形象,帮助读者更容易理解未知事物。如:
1.比喻:It felt like I was being driven fast on a winding road.
The sun and moon looked as if they were being thrown across the sky, but soon there was division between night and day. Around me I saw trees growing like puffs of smoke; they grew, spread, and died in moments.
2.夸张:I calculated that I was being pushed through time at hundreds of years a minute.
3.拟人: ... the first of all Time Machines began its career.

(二)主题语段
1.飞碟与外星人
It was hot at night and I couldn't fall asleep in the tent, so I crawled out of the tent and walked around to cool down. The sky was clear and stars were shining. Suddenly a bright light flashed across the sky and then near my tent appeared a flying saucer, which looked just like the one in the book I had read during the day. I quickly hid behind a stone and saw an alien come down through a round door. He walked into my tent and came out with something in his hand. The UFO then flew away.
I immediately ran into my tent and found that my cellphone was gone. I was so puzzled that I couldn't believe what I had seen. But I decided that the next time the alien came, I would talk to him.
晚上很热,我在帐篷里睡不着,所以我爬出帐篷,四处走走凉快一下。天空晴朗,星星闪烁。突然,一道亮光划过天空,然后在我的帐篷附近出现了一个飞碟,看起来就像我白天读过的书里的那个。我迅速躲到一块石头后面,看到一个外星人从一个圆形的门下来。他走进我的帐篷,手里拿着什么东西出来了。然后不明飞行物飞走了。我立刻跑进帐篷,发现我的手机不见了。我很困惑,我不能相信我所看到的。但我决定下次外星人来的时候,我会和他谈谈。
2.漂浮城市
When I opened my eyes, I arrived in a brand-new floating city, located on a man-made island which was most entirely covered in the vegetation. In the city, many strange carriage-like small planes were floating above the ground. When I drove one to visit the city, I felt I went through a beautiful garden. There was a huge tower in the city centre acting both as the workplace and housing for its citizens. The city used solar, wind and wave power to keep it functioning and used its large gardens to supply food. In this city where robots were easy
to see everywhere, people were working busily at a rapid pace and, of course, robots became helpful assistants. After hanging around the city for several hours, the time machine transported me back to reality.
当我睁开眼睛时,我来到了一个全新的漂浮城市。它位于一个几乎完全被植被覆盖的人造岛屿上。在城市里,许多奇怪的像马车一样的小飞机漂浮在地面上。当我开着一辆去参观这座城市时,我感觉自己穿过了一个美丽的花园。市中心有一座巨大的塔楼,既是市民的工作场所,也是他们的住所。这座城市利用太阳能、风能和波浪能来维持其运转,并利用其大型花园来供应食物。在这个机器人随处可见的城市里,人们以快速的节奏忙碌地工作,当然,机器人也成了有用的助手。在城市里转了几个小时后,时光机把我带回了现实。

If there is one thing we can conclusively say about Isaac Asimov, it's that he could write.His body of work extends to over 500 books.To add to that, he was never bound to a specific field.Although most famous as a science fiction writer, he also published on many more topics.
Part of this related to his gifted mind, but a bigger part was that he was well-educated.Many tend to think of being educated as the degrees we earn.Asimov did have a good degree, but his real education was broader than that.It was deeper than what he learned from instruction.It was his curiosity and his drive to push himself that took him from a young immigrant to maybe one of the most beloved US authors.As a young kid, he spent his days lost in his mind asking questions and creating imaginary worlds.He read books, and he loved knowledge.
In his autobiography (自传) It's Been a Good Life, Asimov tells a story about an encounter he had as a child when his father asked him a question: “How did you learn all this, Isaac?” “From you, Pappa,” Asimov said.“From me I don't know any of this.” “You didn't have to, Pappa,” He said.“You valued learning and you taught me to value it.Once I learned to value it, the rest came without trouble.” The mark of educated minds has nothing to do with how much they know.It has everything to do with the way they know and the way they go about knowing.
Also, one thing that many people don't know about Isaac Asimov is that he actually wasn't a full-time writer for most of his life.By personal choice, his day job was as a chemist.One of the things that many polymaths (博学者) naturally do is explore a broad range of non-fiction topics.But something they tend to overlook is the knowledge they can obtain from fiction.Before Asimov fell in love with science, he was already attracted by fiction.It was his love of Greek myth and his reading of the 18th- and 19th-century classics that led him to become a great writer.
