课件27张PPT。Unit 1 How do you study for a test How do you learn best?
This week we asked students at New Star High School about the best ways to learn more English. Many said they learnt by using English. Some students had more specific suggestions. Lillian Li, for example, said the best way to learn new words was by reading English magazines. She said that memorizing the words of pop songs also helped a little. When we asked about studying grammar, she said, “I never study grammar. It’s too boring.” Explanation 1. ask sb. about sth. 问某人某件事情 about后面加名词或动名词。
e.g. Ask students about the best way of learning.
问学生们最好的学习方法。
ask sb. to do sth. 要求某人做某事,请某人做某事,to后面加动词原形。
e.g. He asked his mother to buy him a new bicycle.
他请求母亲给他买一辆新自行车 2. Many said they learnt by using English.
许多学生说他们通过使用英语来学习英语。
many 在这里是代词,而不是形容词,意为many students.
e.g. We can put away many of these plates. We don’t need so many.
我们可以把许多盘子收起来,用不着这么多。
3. frustrating a. 令人灰心的,令人沮丧的.(修饰物,事件)
e.g. Watching movies to learn English is frustrating because the people speak too quickly.
通过看电影来学英语是让人灰心的, 因为剧中人物说话太快了。

Students get lots of practice and they also have fun. She added that
having conversations with friends was not helpful at all. “We get excited about something and then end up speaking in Chinese,” she said.excited adj.激动的;兴奋的get excited about 对…感到兴奋not at all 根本(不);全然(不)end up结束;告终 5. end up doing sth. 终止做某事, 结束做某事, 后面加动名词短语, 相当于 finish doing sth., 表示结束做某事,事情已完成。
e.g. When we practice speaking English, we often end up speaking in Chinese.
但要注意与stop doing sth. 的区别:
stop doing sth.指停止做某事,有可能是暂时的,不久还会继续下去。
e.g. We had to stop singing because somebody knocked at the door.
另外,end up with… 以…而告终,后面加名词或动名词。
e.g. The party ended up with her singing. 晚会以她的歌唱而告终。
6. 在本单元中,出现了大量的动名词。我们有必要了解动名词的结构和用法。
动名词即动词的-ing形式,相当于名词。在句子中可做主语, 宾语, 表语等。e.g.
1). I think that doing lots of listening practice is one of the secrets of learning.
doing lots of listening practice 为动名词短语,做从句中的主语。listening做定语, 修饰 practice.
2)I am enjoying learning English.
动名词短语做宾语。
3)Seeing is believing. 眼见为实。 (seeing做主语,believing做表语 Liu Chang said that ________the English club at school was the best way to ________her English. Students ____lots of _______and they also have___. She _____that
