2学情分析
1.初中学生的抽象思维能力比较低,形
象思维能力强,但注意力容易分散。我们可以拟以故事、小品、漫画或动画等形式展示,并配以丰富的色彩,从而增强学生的兴趣和注意力。根据教育心理学,如果
学生对于一件事物有极大的兴趣,他们就会排除主观和客观的种种消极因素,尽量全身心地投入到知识的学习中去。
2.初中生的学习心理特点:
(1)兴趣:对英语普遍感兴趣,但有很大的不稳定性,好奇心强,求知欲旺盛,已不满足教师对课文的简单重复。(2)记忆:对刺激记忆手段多的知识记忆深
刻,遵从记忆规律。(3)思维:偏重于形象思维,对片面,零碎的材料尚缺乏一定的概括分析能力。(4)评价:主要通过他人评价初步形成对自己的评价,所以
很在乎他人的评价;自我认识较模糊、片面,但自我意识却不断增强。因此,在本学科的教学过程中,在注重启发引导,培养学生分析、概括能力的同时,更要注重
教学方法的灵活性,通过任务型教学法,情景交际法,全身反应教学法等,激发学生学习的兴趣,让学生乐于接受,易于接受。

活动8【讲授】Step　8　Grammar　
形容词与副词
对于形容词与副词,我们主要掌握两点,一是形容词与副词的句法功能,二是形容词与副词的比较级和最高级。
1.
形容词的句法功能
一般来说,形容词可以放在名词之前作定语,也可以放在系动词之后作表语,还可以作宾语补足语等。例如:
Did
you
see
that
old
photograph
that
I
found
It’s
a
lovely
picture.
你看见我找到的那张老照片了吗 画面真美。(定语)
They
were
very
nice.
他们很友善。(表语)
People’s
lives
seem
busy
now.
现在人们的生活似乎很忙碌。(表语)
We
must
keep
our
classroom
clean
and
tidy.
我们必须保持教室干净整洁。(宾语补足语)
形容词作定语一般都是放在名词之前,但是如果修饰的是不定代词something,
anything,
nothing,
somebody,
anybody,
nobody等,就要放在后面。例如:
Is
there
anything
special
in
the
paper
today
今天报纸上有什么特别的新闻吗
I
didn’t
find
anything
funny
about
it.
我觉得这事一点儿都不可笑。
There
is
nothing
new
in
the
store.
商店里没有什么新东西。
很多副词都以-ly结尾,但是“名词+ly”的词则多为形容词,如:weekly,
friendly等,应注意区别。例如:
A
friendly
voice
answered
the
phone.
接电话的是一个友好的声音。
2.
副词的句法功能
副词一般用作状语,修饰动词、形容词、副词以及全句,表示程度、方式等。例如:
They
speak
highly
of
you.
他们对你的评价很高。
We
were
very
lucky
to
find
you
here.
我们很幸运在这里找到了你。
The
spring
passed
too
quickly.
春天过得太快了。
Hopefully,
we’ll
meet
again
on
Friday.
希望我们星期五再见面。
3.
形容词与副词的比较级和最高级
就形容词、副词的比较级和最高级而言,一是要掌握比较级和最高级的构成,二是要掌握比较级句型。
1)

I
did
this
morning.

more
exciting.
故事变得越来越激动人心。

Our
lives
are
getting
better
and
better.
我们的生活越来越好。
(3)
The+比较级,the+比较级,表示
“越……,越……”
e.g.
The
more
time
you
spend
on
it,
the
greater
progress
you
will
make.
你在这上面花的时间越多,你的进步就会越大。
The
more
he
talked,
the
more
excited
he
grew.
他越说越激动。
同级比较一般采用as...as…句型,否定句可以用not
so
/
as…表示。
e.g.
He
is
as
tall
as
his
father.
他和父亲一样高。

I
get
up
not
so

as
you.
我不如你起得早。

(2)
选择疑问句
e.g.

the
most
interesting
book
I

3)
比较级和最高级的修饰语
比较级和最高级的修饰语应置于其所修饰的形容词或副词之前。常见的比

较级修饰语有much,

e.g.

worked
much
harder
