(1942--) a British astronomerDo you know? 发明蒸汽机的并不是瓦特,他是改进纽可门的蒸气机并发明出双动作,使世界进入“蒸气时代”的,使他成为第一次工业革命中的名气最大的发明家。1865年,修士孟德尔在一个会议上报告了他通过长达八年的实验研究和他所统计的多达两万一千多件样本的实验结果,利用豌豆实验发现了植物的遗传规律,但是孟道尔的理论超出了当时人们能够接受的水平。35年后,三国科学家几乎是同时发现了植物遗传的规律。而当他们准备发表论文,去查阅文献时,又不约而同地发现,早在35年前孟德尔就发现这样的规律了。他们三个人在发表论文时,都提到了孟德尔的文章,称自己的工作是证实了孟德尔的定律。这就是生物学史上的有名的“孟德尔定律的再发现”。英国化学家、诗人汉弗莱·戴维。1778年出生。他小时聪明、淘气,不喜欢读书,喜欢玩乐。他不到20岁时,父亲去世。为了养家糊口,他到当地一位医生那当学徒,从此接触并喜欢上化学,因为觉得自己知识浅薄,他就自订计划发奋用功,凭着他的天资和勤奋,很快掌握了七种语言和不少科学知识,并最终成为了英国皇家学会的主席。1798年戴维的名声随着他对笑气的发现而传遍了整个英国。他还带病专门研究火焰,发明了矿用安全灯(1816),这种灯一直到今天仍叫戴维灯,曾挽救了成千上万名矿工的生命。
使人发笑的气体
????
世界上有一种能使人发笑的气体——笑气,它的学名叫“一氧化二氮”。笑气在空气中很少很少,大约只占空气体积的二百万分之一,所以人们每天呼吸空气,也不会笑个不停。
????开始,人们以为笑气能使人致病。到1798年,英国化学家汉弗莱·戴维做了一个使他一举成名的试验:一边吸入笑气,一边记录他自己所产生的生理效应。他发现,笑气对神经有奇异作用,吸入少量就会使人兴奋不已而大笑起来。试验中,戴维还发现这种气体减轻了他的一颗病齿的疼痛。后来进一步研究证实,吸入适量的笑气,可以使人进入麻醉状态,减轻病人的疼痛。从此,笑气被用作牙科麻醉剂。
笑气还有一个有趣的特性,就是能够像氧气一样助燃。当你将一块吹熄的木条,放到充满笑气的瓶中,木条会立刻烧起来,比在空气中燃烧得更猛烈、光亮。这是因为笑气在高温下能分解成氮气和氧气的缘故。
????笑气有个怪脾气,一个笑气分子会和六个水分子结合在一起。所以当水中溶解大量的笑气后,再把水冷却,就会有含笑气的晶体出现。把晶体加热,笑气又会重新逃出。人们利用笑气这种性质,来制得纯净的笑气。 Pre-reading (pair discussion)

一、理清过去分词作表语和定语的最基本特点:过去分词作表语和定语常常表示被动的和完成的动作。
The polluted river gives off a terrible smell.
典型考例:
1. Don't use words, expressions, or phrases ________ only to people with specific knowledge.
A. being known B. having been known
C. to be known D. known
析: D。此处并不是强调进行的、完成的或将来的动作,因此应填过去分词known作定语。
2. The first textbooks ________ for teaching English as a foreign language came out in the 16th century.
A.having written B.to be written C.being written D. written 析: D。第一批课本是被写的,所以应填过去分词written作定语,表示完成的、被动的动作。
注意:有些过去分词(词组)因来自系表结构而不含被动色彩,如dressed like, dressed in, satisfied with, devoted to, tired of, born in, seated, pleased with, interested in, surprised at, prepared for, lost /absorbed in等。例如:
Do you know the man seated on that stone?
Don't you know the girl dressed in a red skirt ?
典型考例:
1. The pilot asked all the passengers on board to remain ________ as the plane was making a landing. A. seat B. seating C. seated D. to be seating
析:C. remain seated 为系表结构,不具有被动色彩
注意:一些表示情绪、情感的过去分词作表语和定语时也不具备被动色彩。例如:
The excited people finally cooled down.
激动的人们终于冷静了下来。
典型考例:
2. -I'm very ________ with my own cooking. It looks nice and smells delicious.
- Mm. It does have a ________ smell.
A. pleasant; pleased B. pleased; pleased
C. pleasant; pleasant D. pleased; pleasant 析: D。第一空应填pleased,表满意的情绪;第二空应填pleasant,表令人愉快的。
二、掌握过去分词作表语和定语的创新形式
1. get done也可构成被动语态,相当于be done。例如:
His right hand got burnt in that big fire.
She got murdered last year.
2. 过去分词作非限制性定语。
过去分词可作非限制性定语,因其不属于被修饰名词不可缺少的定语,前面常有逗号与被修饰名词隔开。
典型考例:
1. Mr. Smith, ________ of the ________ speech, started to read a novel. A.tired;boring B.tiring;bored C.tired;bored D.tiring; boring
析: A。第一空应填tired,来源于系表结构be tired of;第二空表令人感到枯燥的,应填现在分词boring。
2. The Olympic Games,________ in 776 B.C., did not include women players until 1912.
A. first playing B. to be first played C. first played D. to be first playing
析: C。分析语境逻辑不难发现,该空表“公元前776年第一次被举行”,应填过去分词first played作非限制性定语
三、 弄清过去分词作表语和定语的位置
1. 单个过去分词要前置;
2. 过去分词短语要后置,此时可与定语从句互相转换;
3. 单个过去分词前加一个副词,常用连字符将它们连接起来,构成一个复合形容词,放在名词前作定语,如:a well-known doctor, a newly-built bridge
4. 过去分词作表语时,应放在连系动词后面,但有时过去分词和连系动词之间有副词隔开。例如:
This is the wounded soldier .
This is the soldier wounded in the battle.
English is widely used all over the world.
典型考例:
1. Most of the artists ________ to the party were from South Africa.
A. invited B. to invite C. being invited D. had been invited
析: A。分析语境逻辑可知,该空表“被邀请”,所以应用过去分词短语invited to the party作后置定语。
2. Prices of daily goods ________ through a computer
can be lower than store prices.
A. are bought B. bought C. been bought D. buying
析: B。分析语境逻辑可知,该空表"通过电脑购买",goods与buy之间是被动关系,所以应用过去分词短语bought through a computer作后置定语。
过去分词作表语和定语练与析:
1. I don't know the girl ________ in the snow storm.
A.to catch B.caught C.catching D.to be catching
2. The girl ________ down by a car was dying.
A. knock B. knocking C. knocked D. to knock

1. What did Copernicus think was the center of the solar system?
2.When did Copernicus publish his theory?Reading
Copernicus’ Revolutionary TheoryCareful reading
Why didn’t Copernicus publish his theory before he died?
Discussion (pair work)
If you were Nicolaus Copernicus, would you have hidden your theory for so many years? Give a reason.P7. 1.Use the reading to help you draw the two theories of the universe.Before Copernicus’ theory
A diagram showing the solar system with the earth at its centreShowing Copernicus’ theory
A diagram showing the solar system with the sun at its centrePersuasive writing (Please refer to P8 Learning Tip)
Writing Task: P7 3.Now write a short letter asking Copernicus to publish his ideas so everyone can read them.
First you need to collect your ideas. For example:
He believes his new theory is true.
There are problems with the present theory.
He has done many years of observations to prove his new theory is true.
Science can’t develop unless people publish their ideas.
Time will show if his theory is true or not.Here is a plan:
Beginning: Tell Copernicus who you are and why you want him to publish his ideas.
Paragraph 1: Reason 1 and evidence.
Paragraph 2: Reason 2 and evidence.
Summing up: Ask him to think again about publishing his ideas.
One possible version:
Dear Nicolaus Copernicus,
I am a student studying astronomy and I would very much like to read your new theory about the solar system. I hope you will publish it for several reasons.
I understand the problems with the present theory. The way the planets move is not what you would expect if the earth was the certre of the universe. It is also odd that the brightness of some stars seems to change. So I agree with you that we need a new theory.
I know your observations have been very carefully carried out over many years. Now you must have the courage to publish them. Science can never advance unless people have the courage of their beliefs. I know you worry about what will happen if you publish your new theory. No matter how people oppose it, time will show if your ideas are right or wrong.
So I hope you will feel you can publish your new theory.
Yours sincerely,
Zhang Hua Nicolaus Copernicus was a Polish astronomer (1473-1543). Born in Torun, he began his university studies in Krakow in 1491, where he studied canon law and Latin and Greek classics. However he also had an interest in mathematics and astronomy. After obtaining his degree of Doctor of Canon Law (教会法规博士学位)in Italy in 1503, Copernicus returned home to Warmia in Poland to serve as Canon (=priest) .
In 1530, Copernicus completed his great work De Revolutionibus (《天体运行论》).Copernicus knew that these findings would lead him into trouble with the Roman Catholic Church (罗马天主教教徒), so he wasin no hurry to publish his theory. He only published it as he lay dying in 1543.
Though Copernicus did not live to hear of its extraordinary impact, the book which first suggested that the Sun, not the Earth, is the centre of the universe is now recognized as one of the most influential scientific works of all time.
Adapted from http://www.library.rdg.ac.uk/colls/special/featureditem/copernicus/Listening (P5)1. Qian Xuesen first studied to be an engineer.
2. In America he began to work on space rockets so that he was able to develop a space programme
when he came back to China.
3. When Qian Xuesen returned to China he sep up a Space Institute to begin training people in how to design and build rockets.4. In China he has been honoured
as “the father of the space programme”.
5. Steve Smith suggested putting
Qian Xuesen’s picture on Mars when
the first Chinese astronaut lands there.
