3. What must Antonio give Shylock if he can’t pay back the debt on time
A pound of his flesh from any part of his body.
Background: Antonio and Bassanio borrow 3,000 ducats from Shylock.However,there is a catch: if the debt is not repaid on time, Antonio as security will pay with one pound of his flesh.
Problem: Antonio and Bassanio are not able to pay the debt. Antonio’s ships are lost .Shylockstarts demanding his pound of flesh.
Conflicts: Shylock insisted on taking a pound of flesh because Antonio could not pay back the Money he borrowed on time.
Rising action: The Duke tells Shylock to have mercy on Antonio. Bassanio promises to paytwice or even ten times the money that Antonio has borrowed. Portia tells Shylock to be merciful, but Shylock insists on having his pound of flesh.
Climax: Portia declares Shylock may have a pound of flesh to cut nearest to Antonio’s heart, no more, no less. And if Shylock lets one drop of Antonio’s blood fall, he will lose all his land and money.

Unit 19 The Merchant of Venice(学案)
Period 4 (grammer)
陈博霞 林晓东
Goals:
Let the Ss’know how to change Direct Speech and Indirect Speech
Remember all kinds of changes when we change a Direct Speech into Indirect Speech
引述别人的原话叫直接引语,用自己的话转述别人的话叫间接引语。
( I ) 直接引语转变为间接引语时,时间状语一般要作一定的改变。常见的有:
now→then; today→ that day;
tomorrow→tomorrow / the next day; next week→ next week / the next week;
ago→ before; yesterday → the day before;
yesterday afternoon → the afternoon before等。
He said,“ I will call you tomorrow.”
He said he would call me tomorrow / the next day.
(II) 从直接引语变为间接引语,陈述句用that引导 ,例如:
He said “I don’t want to go with her.”
He said that he did not want to go with her.
(III). 间接疑问句 (Indirect Questions)
疑问句的间接引语,叫做间接疑问句。可分为两个类型。
I) 一般疑问句、选择疑问句和附加疑问句变为间接引语时要用从属连词 whether 或 if 来引导。
一般疑问句的间接引语,由whether 或 if 引导:
He asked me, "Is the boy your brother / Will you go with me "
He asked me whether / if the boy was my brother / I would go with him.
2) 选择疑问句间接引语,由whether 引导:
"Do you study English or Japanese " the girl asked Tom.
The girl asked Tom whether he studied English or Japanese.
3) 特殊疑问句的间接引语,由疑问词引导。
He asked, "What do you mean by that / Why did he leave "
He asked what I / he / she meant by that / why he left.
IV. 间接祈使句 (Indirect Imperatives/Commands)
祈使句的间接引语,叫做间接祈使句。通常由带动词不定式的复合宾语结构来充当。这时的主动词通常为 ask, tell, order,或command, request, require, beg, urge 等。例如:
"Please shut the door," I said to him.
I asked him to shut the door.
以 let 开头的祈使句,变为间接引语时可根据其不同情景中的具体意义来进行相应的改变。
例如:
"Let us go out and play for a while mother," I said.
I asked mother to let us go out and play for a while.
I suggest that we (should) go out and play for a while
I suggest going out and playing for a while.
时态的变化
(1)直接引语转变为间接引语时,若主句谓语是现在时,则宾语从句中的原有时态一般无须改变。
(2)直接引语转变为间接引语时,若主句谓语是过去时,则从句谓语时态应作相应的变化。常见的有:
原时态 → 应改时态
一般现在时 → 一般过去时
现在进行时 → 过去进行时
一般将来时 → 过去将来时
例如:
Kate said, “I will come to school next Sunday.”
Kate said (that) she would come / go to school (the) next Sunday.
但在下列特殊情况下,动词的时态不能改变或者可以不变。
一、直接引语引述的是客观事实(真理)、政治信念、宗教信仰时,时态一般不变。例如:
The teacher said, "The Earth moves round the Sun."
The teacher said that the Earth moves round the Sun.
二、直接引语引述的是现在的习惯性动作或状态时,时态一般不变。例如:
Mrs. Green said, "Linda runs half a mile every morning."
Mrs. Green said that Linda runs half a mile every morning.
Yesterday John said ,"The boy is six."
Yesterday John said that the boy is six.
三、 直接引语引述的是科学事实或道理,如地理特征、医学常识、自然现象等,时态一般不变。例如:
Professor Li said, "China is larger than the U.S."
Professor Li said that China is larger than the U.S.
Doctor Smith said, "Smoking is harmful to our health. "
Doctor Smith said that smoking is harmful to our health.
四、 直接引语引述的是警句格言、导师语录、名人言论等,时态一般不变。例如:
She said, "Still water runs deep."
She said that still water runs deep.
Chairman Mao said, "The lowly are the most intelligent; the elite are the most ignorant."
Chairman Mao said that the lowly are the most intelligent; the elite are the most ignorant.
五、 当直接引语指过去的历史事实时,尤其是有明确的过去时间状语时,时态一般不变。例如:
"Columbus discovered America," said the history teacher.
The history teacher said that Columbus discovered America.
Li Ming said, "Li Ying joined the Party in 1960."
Li Ming said that Li Ying joined the Party in 1960.
六、当直接引语中的谓语是过去完成时或过去完成进行时(包括从句中的谓语)时,时态不变。
例如:
They said, "The workers had already finished the work by the end of last year."
They said that the workers had already finished the work by the end of last year.
七、 直接引语中所包含的时间状语从句谓语是过去时,主句谓语是过去进行时;从句谓语是过去进行时,主句谓语是过去时;或者主、从句谓语都是过去进行时,主从句时态均可保持不变。例如:
Mary said, "I was listening to music when John came in."
Mary said she was listening to music when John came in.
Miss Betty said, "When I was studying Mike was playing."
Miss Betty said when she was studying Mike was playing.
但任何事物都不是绝对的,上述情况有时也会遵守时态呼应的原则,但在意义上略有不同。请看下列两句:
Scientists concluded that living things can't live without oxygen.
Scientists concluded that living things couldn't live without oxygen.
以上两句,从句均表示的是科学真理。第一句从句用现在时,它不仅表明了科学家们做出了什么论断,而且说话者也同意该论断。第二句从句用过去时,只说明当时科学家们做出了论断而已,而说话者并不关心该论断是否正确。
