We passed by the classmates and saw
the teacher making the experiment.
我们走过教室，看见老师在做实验。
（只在走过教室的刹那间，看见老师

（或强调）动作从开始到结束的全过程。如: We sat an hour and watched the teacher make the experiment.
我们坐了一个小时，看老师做实验。
（一个小时之内一直在看老师作实验）
② 如果宾语补足语是短暂性动词，动词不定式短语表示一次动作， 而-ing形式则表示反复动作。如：

We heard the door slamming. (反复动作)(一次动作) 三、-ing形式作表语

So he asked the boys what they were going to do with the dog.
“Oh,” said one of the boys. “We were just deciding who should take the dog home and look after it. We all want it for a pet but only one of us can have it.” The teacher asked how they were going to choose the owner of the dog. “Well,” said another boy. “We’ve decided that the one who told the biggest lie should have him.” At this the teacher became very angry. He began to talk to the boys about truth and honesty. He continued for ten minutes while the boys listened carefully .Then he ended by saying, “And I never told a lie when I was your age.” There was a long silence as the boys looked at the teacher and then each other. They seemed to agree with what he had said. The teacher was glad that his words had impressed the boys. Then the first boy spoke again. “After what we heard, we think you should have the dog!”Homework Please collect as many funny stories as you can. They will be useful in the next period.

愚人节的来历
每年4月1日,是西方也是美国的民间传统节日——愚人节。
愚人节起源于法国。1564年，法国首先采用新改革的纪年法——格里历(即目前通用的阳历),以1月1日为一年之始。但一些因循守旧的人反对这种改革,依然按照旧历固执地在4月1日这一天送礼品,庆祝新年。主张改革的人对这些守旧者的做法大加嘲弄。聪明滑稽的人在4月1日就给他们送假礼品，邀请他们参加假招待会。并把上当受骗的保守分子称为“四月傻瓜”或“上钩的鱼”。从此人们在4月1日便互相愚弄，成为法国流行的风俗。18世纪初，愚人节习俗传到英国,接着又被英国的早期移民带到了美国。 愚人节最典型的活动还是大家互相开玩笑,用假话捉弄对方。有的人把细线拴着的钱包丢在大街上,自己在暗处拉着线的另一端。一旦有人捡起钱包,他们就出其不意地猛然把钱包拽走。还有人把砖头放在破帽子下面搁在马路当中,然后等着看谁来了会踢它。小孩们会告诉父母说自己的书包破了个洞,或者脸上有个黑点。等大人俯身来看时,他们就一边喊着“四月傻瓜”。一边笑着跑开去。总之,每逢愚人节这一天,动物园和水族馆还会接到不少打给菲什(鱼)先生成莱昂(狮子)先生的电话,常常惹得工作人员掐断电话线,以便减少麻烦。
如今的愚人节在美国已主要是淘气的男孩子们的节日了!Panorama Examination of serious problems and progress all over the worldStory about the excellent noodle harvest in SwitzerlandThey believed it and even ring the BBC to find out how to grow a noodle tree!Read the passage and fill in the chart below. 1. What do children usually do on April Fool’s Day?
Answer the following questions.Children enjoy playing jokes on each other. When they “fool” someone they say “April Fool” to them. The most common kind of joke is to say something like “Your dress is hanging down at the back”. When you turn round they say “April Fool”.2. Why did people believe the programme Panorama on April 1st, 1957?
People believed the programme Panorama because it was always serious and known for its factual correctness.3. Do you think the advice that the BBC gave people who asked how to grow noodle trees was serous? Give a reason.
The advice the BBC gave to people wanting to grow their own noodle tree could not be serious as no tree could be grown in this way.
4. What would you do to find out whether a story like this was true?
If I was not sure if a story was true or not, I would go to the library to check the facts in an encyclopedia or go on the Internet.

1. Mr. Hills buys a hedge cutter made in China.
2. It breaks down and he tries to mend it himself. 3. The instruction booklet says it should not be touched “without permission”.
4. He decides to get a new one so no one will ever know.
A true story of Mr Hills
Mr Hills in London bought a hedge cutter made in China. It was very small and very cheap and it worked very well.
At first he was very pleased with it. It made his hedges look smart and neat. Then one day it broke down. There was nothing he could do to makeit work. He took it apart and put it together again but still it would not work. Next he took out the booklet of instructions to see if they had any advice for him. Imagine his amazement when he saw these words written in the booklet. “No one is to touch or try to repair this hedge cutter withoutpermission.” What was he to do? Should he have written to the manufacturers in Beijing before he had took his hedge cutter mended?
Mr. Hills thought long and hard. Finally he went back to the shop and bought another hedge cutter. He put his old one in the dustbin. He thought no one would ever know what he had done. 课件25张PPT。Warming upEnjoy these punchlines!"That's not exactly what I meant when I said, 'Bring your bat'!""I've heard of a little black rain cloud, but this is ridiculous"1 Policeman: Why did you have to break into the same shop three times?
Thief: Well, I stole a dress from that shop but my wife didn’t like it. So I had to go back and change it twice?Joke 1: The joke is funny because the wife wanted to change the dress her husband had given her. If women pay for their dresses they can, of course, change them if they do not like them. However, the wife is treating the dress as if the husband has bought it for her when he has really stolen it. People do not usually change stolen goods if they do not like them. They may get caught as they have done. So that is why this joke is funny.2 Policeman: Why did you have to break into the same shop three times?
Thief: Well, I stole a dress from that shop but my wife didn’t like it. So I had to go back and change it twice?Joke 2: parents often ring up school to explain why their child cannot come to school. The humour lies in the fact that the voice on the phone gives it away that it is the child speaking and not the parent. A child (however much they want to) cannot give themselves permission not to come to school. That is why it is funny.
