课前热身 Warming up
“What’s your favourite food ” When you hear this question, I think, it can be answered without any thinking. It must be easy for you . You can tell me a lot of food you like. We know that with time passing by, the living standard of the chinese people is becoming higher and higher.Everyone can enjoy his favourite food anywhere in China. Rice is especially liked by the chinese people. But China has a large number of people, how to produce more rice for that large population is really a big problem. The following is a short passage about the great scientist Yuan Longping who is called “Father of Rice”. Read it and answer the 3 questions.
Yuan Longping awarded Wolf Prize in Agriculture
Yuan Longping, member of Chinese Academy of Engineering and the director of the China National Hybrid Rice Research and Development Center, is presented Wolf Prize in Agriculture in Jerusalem on Sunday, May 9, 2004 by the President of the State of Israel, Moshe Katsav.
Prof. Yuan, China's “Father of Hybrid Rice”, as the first scientist in China awarded Wolf Prize in agriculture, is “one of the scientific giants in the history of modern agricultural research and has made a dramatic impact on worldwide food production”. Prof. Yuan shared the prize with Steven Tanksley, of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, for innovative development of hybrid rice and discovery of the genetic basis of heterosis in this important food staple. The prize in each area consists of a diploma and US $100,000.
Prof. Yuan, who was very glad to be the first Chinese scientist to win the prize, said at the awarding ceremony that, “It is not only the proud of myself, it is the proud of our country, and it is the high evaluation to China’s hybrid rice researches”.
The Wolf Foundation was established in 1976 by Dr. Ricardo Wolf (1887-1981), an inventor, diplomat and philanthropist, “to promote science and art for the benefit of mankind”. Yearly prizes are awarded since 1978 to outstanding living scientists and artists for achievements in the interest of mankind and friendly relations among peoples. In science, the fields are: agriculture, chemistry, mathematics, medicine, physics and in arts, the prize rotates annually among architecture, music, painting and sculpture. The prize winners are selected by international committees of three renowned experts in each field.
To date, Prof. Yuan has wined 11 international awards.
Well, if you have some difficulty reading it, look at the chinese information to help you.

袁隆平教授是我国农业界第一个荣获“沃尔夫农业奖”的科学家。沃尔夫基金会授予袁隆平教授殊荣，以表彰他成功研发杂交水稻以及发现水稻杂种优势遗传基因，为增加全球性的粮食供应所作的贡献。与袁隆平教授共同获得“2004年度沃尔夫农业奖”的是美国康奈尔大学的史蒂文·坦克撕尼教授。此项奖金共为10万美元。
袁隆平院士获奖后说，他为自己成为第一个获得这个农业领域最高奖的中国科学家感到非常高兴，“站在领奖台上，我感到这不仅仅是我个人的光荣，这是一个国家的荣誉，也是世界对中国杂交水稻研究的高度肯定”。

Part 2 The general content of the great works Qimin Yaoshu.

Main idea: China’s agriculture is as old as time. Much wisdom has been dicovered as time went on. A scientist named Jia Sixie made a good conclusion after working hard at the experiences of the farmers. He wrote a book called Qimin Yaoshu at last.

语法归纳
强调句型 It is/was...who/that的用法及注意事项
一、强调句型的用法
在英语中，我们常用it is／was… who/that结构来突出强调句子的某一成分(一
般是句子中主语，宾语或状语)。在这个句型中，it没有词汇意义，只是引出被
强调的成分。如果被强调的成分是表示人的词，用who或that来连接都可以。如
果是其它成分，则一律用that来连接。例如：
It is my mother who／that cooks every day.
It was yesterday that Tom passed in the maths exam．
二、使用本句型的几个注意事项
1．被强调成分是主语，who／that之后的谓语动词应该在人称和数上与原句中的
主语保持一致。如：
It is I who am right．It is he who is wrong．It is the students who are lovely．
2．即使被强调成分是句子中的时间状语，地点状语，原因状语等，也不能用when，where
because，而要用 that。如：
It was after the war was over that Einstein was able bcome back to his research work again．
It was in front of the bank that the old lady was robbed．
It was because of the heavy rain that he came late．
3．如果被强调的成分有同位语，同位语也应提前。如：
It was from him，his chemistry teacher，that Paul learned to watch carefully in class．
4．被强调成分是作主语的代词，用主格，是作宾语的代词，用宾格。
It was he that helped me yesterday.
It was me that he helped yesterday.
5．被强调部分既包括人又包括物，用that不用who
lt was the things and people that they remembered that they were talking about．
三、考试中，为了增加试题难度，强调句型经常以疑问句形式出现。其一般疑问句形式是：
Is／Was it+被强调成分+who／that… 例如：
Is it Mr.Smith who teaches you English
其特殊疑问句形式是：疑问词 + is／was+ it + that… 例如：
Why was it that you did not attend the meeting yesterday
When was it that this traffic accident happen
Where was it that you put my English dictionary
四、区分名词性从句和强调句型
某些名词性从句和强调句型形式差不多，容易混淆。如果去掉it is／was …that，句子仍然通顺成立，则为强调句型，不成立不通顺，则为定语从句。例如：
It was three years ago that he went to American for a further study.
去掉It was that句子为Three years ago he went to America for a further
study．句子通顺，意思完整，那么，这就是一个强调句型所构成的句子。
再如：
It's a pity that you should have to leave.
若去掉It is … that 整个句子则成为 a pity you should have to leave. 使读者不知所云，那么它就是一个名词性从句作真正主语的句子。

Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class, after class, and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.
Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather , and the life of American people. Most of the radio programmes are music.
Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places. Once the popular singer is heard all over the country, young people buy his or her tape. Some of the money from these tapes goes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, all the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has become a national star.
There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans. One is called folk (民间) music. It tells stories about the common life of Americans. Another is called western or country music. This was started by cowboys (牛仔) who would sing at night to the cows they were watching. Today, any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music.

Since smoking is considered (认为) to be very dangerous to the health, it is especially difficult for children to buy cigarettes. Our shopkeeper, Mr. Soames, has always been careful about this. If his customers (顾客) are very young, he always asks them whom the cigarettes are for.
One day a little girl walked into his shop and asked twenty cigarettes. She had the exact amount of money in her hand and seemed very sure of herself. Mr Soames was so surprised by her confident (充满自信的) manner that he forgot to ask his usual questions. He asked her what kind of cigarettes she wanted. The girl replied quickly and handed him the money. While he was giving her the cigarettes, Mr Soames said laughingly that she was so young and she should hide the packet in her pocket so as not to be found by a policeman. But the little girl did not seem to find this very funny. Without even smiling she took the packet and walked towards the door. Suddenly she stopped, turned round, and looked steadily at Mr Soames. There was a moment's deathly silence and Mr Soames wondered what she was going to say. All at once, in a clear voice, the girl said, "My dad is a policeman." And with that she walked quickly out of the shop.

Ladies and gentlemen,
I'm very happy to welcome you all to our factory. First of all I wish to say a few words about our factory. It was set up in October, 1986. We spent only fourteen months in finishing building our factory.
There are five workshops in our factory and 1 250 workers working there, most of whom are young people. More than 400 workers have had some college education and more than 800 workers have had middle school education.
Our factory mainly produces fertilizers. In the past few years our factory has advanced rapidly. Now we have raised our output of fertilizers to more than 400 000 tons a year. The total output value of our factory added up to almost 100 million yuan last year.
That's all. Thank you.

“What’s your favourite food ” When you hear this question, I think, it can be answered without any thinking. It must be easy for you . You can tell me a lot of food you like. We know that with time passing by, the living standard of the chinese people is becoming higher and higher.Everyone can enjoy his favourite food anywhere in China. Rice is especially liked by the chinese people. But China has a large number of people, how to produce more rice for that large population is really a big problem. The following is a short passage about the great scientist Yuan Longping who is called “Father of Rice”. Read it and answer the 3 questions.
Yuan Longping awarded Wolf Prize in Agriculture
Yuan Longping, member of Chinese Academy of Engineering and the director of the China National Hybrid Rice Research and Development Center, is presented Wolf Prize in Agriculture in Jerusalem on Sunday, May 9, 2004 by the President of the State of Israel, Moshe Katsav.
Prof. Yuan, China's “Father of Hybrid Rice”, as the first scientist in China awarded Wolf Prize in agriculture, is “one of the scientific giants in the history of modern agricultural research and has made a dramatic impact on worldwide food production”. Prof. Yuan shared the prize with Steven Tanksley, of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, for innovative development of hybrid rice and discovery of the genetic basis of heterosis in this important food staple. The prize in each area consists of a diploma and US $100,000.
Prof. Yuan, who was very glad to be the first Chinese scientist to win the prize, said at the awarding ceremony that, “It is not only the proud of myself, it is the proud of our country, and it is the high evaluation to China’s hybrid rice researches”.
The Wolf Foundation was established in 1976 by Dr. Ricardo Wolf (1887-1981), an inventor, diplomat and philanthropist, “to promote science and art for the benefit of mankind”. Yearly prizes are awarded since 1978 to outstanding living scientists and artists for achievements in the interest of mankind and friendly relations among peoples. In science, the fields are: agriculture, chemistry, mathematics, medicine, physics and in arts, the prize rotates annually among architecture, music, painting and sculpture. The prize winners are selected by international committees of three renowned experts in each field.
To date, Prof. Yuan has wined 11 international awards.
Well, if you have some difficulty reading it, look at the chinese information to help you.

袁隆平教授是我国农业界第一个荣获“沃尔夫农业奖”的科学家。沃尔夫基金会授予袁隆平教授殊荣，以表彰他成功研发杂交水稻以及发现水稻杂种优势遗传基因，为增加全球性的粮食供应所作的贡献。与袁隆平教授共同获得“2004年度沃尔夫农业奖”的是美国康奈尔大学的史蒂文·坦克撕尼教授。此项奖金共为10万美元。
袁隆平院士获奖后说，他为自己成为第一个获得这个农业领域最高奖的中国科学家感到非常高兴，“站在领奖台上，我感到这不仅仅是我个人的光荣，这是一个国家的荣誉，也是世界对中国杂交水稻研究的高度肯定”。
沃尔夫基金会创立于1976年，创始人沃尔夫是一位犹太人发明家、外交家和慈善家。沃尔夫奖主要是奖励对推动人类科学与艺术文明作出贡献的人士，每年评选一次，分别奖励在农业、化学、数学、医药和物理领域，以及在建筑、音乐、绘画、雕塑四大艺术领域内取得突出成绩的人士，具有很高的国际声望。
据悉，袁隆平院士迄今为止已获11个国际大奖。)

语法归纳
强调句型 It is/was...who/that的用法及注意事项
一、强调句型的用法
在英语中，我们常用it is／was… who/that结构来突出强调句子的某一成分(一
般是句子中主语，宾语或状语)。在这个句型中，it没有词汇意义，只是引出被
强调的成分。如果被强调的成分是表示人的词，用who或that来连接都可以。如
果是其它成分，则一律用that来连接。例如：
It is my mother who／that cooks every day.
It was yesterday that Tom passed in the maths exam．
二、使用本句型的几个注意事项
1．被强调成分是主语，who／that之后的谓语动词应该在人称和数上与原句中的
主语保持一致。如：
It is I who am right．It is he who is wrong．It is the students who are lovely．
2．即使被强调成分是句子中的时间状语，地点状语，原因状语等，也不能用when，where
because，而要用 that。如：
It was after the war was over that Einstein was able bcome back to his research work again．
It was in front of the bank that the old lady was robbed．
It was because of the heavy rain that he came late．
3．如果被强调的成分有同位语，同位语也应提前。如：
It was from him，his chemistry teacher，that Paul learned to watch carefully in class．
4．被强调成分是作主语的代词，用主格，是作宾语的代词，用宾格。
It was he that helped me yesterday.
It was me that he helped yesterday.
5．被强调部分既包括人又包括物，用that不用who
lt was the things and people that they remembered that they were talking about．
三、考试中，为了增加试题难度，强调句型经常以疑问句形式出现。其一般疑问句形式是：
Is／Was it+被强调成分+who／that… 例如：
Is it Mr.Smith who teaches you English
其特殊疑问句形式是：疑问词 + is／was+ it + that… 例如：
Why was it that you did not attend the meeting yesterday
When was it that this traffic accident happen
Where was it that you put my English dictionary
四、区分名词性从句和强调句型
某些名词性从句和强调句型形式差不多，容易混淆。如果去掉it is／was …that，句子仍然通顺成立，则为强调句型，不成立不通顺，则为定语从句。例如：

Popular music in America is what every student likes. Students carry small radios with earphones and listen to music before class, after class, and at lunch. Students with cars buy large speakers and play the music loudly as they drive on the street.
Adult drivers listen to music on the car radio as they drive to work. They also listen to the news about sports, the weather , and the life of American people. Most of the radio programmes are music.
Pop or popular music singers make much money. They make a CD or tape which radio stations use in many places. Once the popular singer is heard all over the country, young people buy his or her tape. Some of the money from these tapes goes to the singer. Wherever the singer goes, all the young people want to meet him or her. Now the singer has become a national star.
There are other kinds of music that are important to Americans. One is called folk (民间) music. It tells stories about the common life of Americans. Another is called western or country music. This was started by cowboys (牛仔) who would sing at night to the cows they were watching. Today, any music about country life and the love between a country boy and his girl is called western or country music.

Since smoking is considered (认为) to be very dangerous to the health, it is especially difficult for children to buy cigarettes. Our shopkeeper, Mr. Soames, has always been careful about this. If his customers (顾客) are very young, he always asks them whom the cigarettes are for.
One day a little girl walked into his shop and asked twenty cigarettes. She had the exact amount of money in her hand and seemed very sure of herself. Mr Soames was so surprised by her confident (充满自信的) manner that he forgot to ask his usual questions. He asked her what kind of cigarettes she wanted. The girl replied quickly and handed him the money. While he was giving her the cigarettes, Mr Soames said laughingly that she was so young and she should hide the packet in her pocket so as not to be found by a policeman. But the little girl did not seem to find this very funny. Without even smiling she took the packet and walked towards the door. Suddenly she stopped, turned round, and looked steadily at Mr Soames. There was a moment's deathly silence and Mr Soames wondered what she was going to say. All at once, in a clear voice, the girl said, "My dad is a policeman." And with that she walked quickly out of the shop.

Ladies and gentlemen,
I'm very happy to welcome you all to our factory. First of all I wish to say a few words about our factory. It was set up in October, 1986. We spent only fourteen months in finishing building our factory.
There are five workshops in our factory and 1 250 workers working there, most of whom are young people. More than 400 workers have had some college education and more than 800 workers have had middle school education.
Our factory mainly produces fertilizers. In the past few years our factory has advanced rapidly. Now we have raised our output of fertilizers to more than 400 000 tons a year. The total output value of our factory added up to almost 100 million yuan last year.
That's all. Thank you.
