Unit 1共设计了7个活动。1 要求根据录音材料给故事中人物排序。2是谈论故事Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland的一段对话。3为细节理解活动，要求学生听懂故事情节，记下故事中每个人物的活动。4要求辨认单词，按照提示为其分类。5要求用4中词汇完成句子。通过活动，学生可以从中学到用英语解释新单词的方法。6通过听读语音语调训练，帮助学生掌握含有过去进行时的句子的读音。7 要求写出在所给的过去时间内自己做的事情，然后结对进行问答练习（8）。
Unit 2通过讨论图片导入故事，以激发学生兴趣，并熟悉相关词汇，为阅读提供词汇、句法及背景知识的准备（1）。2是节选自Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland的一段小故事，要求学生读后回答问题。3要求将问句和答语进行匹配，通过问答匹配了解故事的创作背景，为活动4的写作任务做准备。 这一活动训练的是阅读理解能力，可帮助学生更好地理解课文。4是写作活动。要求根据活动3中内容写一则关于Lewis Carroll and Alice Liddell的小故事。本活动不仅仅训练过去进行时的用法，还要求掌握叙述故事的时间顺序以及时间衔接词的用法，如：One day … Then … and Finally。
Unit 3 属于语言实践活动。1要求辨识过去进行时的正确结构形式。2采用选择答案完成句子的形式，通过语境训练进一步强化对过去进行时的认识，并能正确区分一般过去时与过去进行时的用法。3属于语言输出活动。要求学生根据所供语境，运用过去进行时态描述自己所做的事。4利用游戏方式，口头问答过去某时自己所做的事。 5仍是一个游戏活动。游戏的内容是“警察捉小偷”。通过问答练习，调查每个人过去某时的行为活动，借以判断小偷身份。 6要求将上一活动中被调查人员的活动结果记录下来。7要求听一段小故事后，回答问题。8 要求根据语篇内容选择适当的词汇完成短文。活动9 要求先根据语意及句子结构知识完成句子，然后用句中短语造句，旨在培养学生的创造性思维能力。

Robert Louis Stevenson was Scot who trained as a lawyer, but became a famous novelist. He wrote a number of classic children’s stories, including Treasure Island, Kidnapped and Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde, many of them set in Scotland.

When we got home, I invited her in for a coup of tea, and, to my surprise, she accepted.

I. Lewis Carroll
Lewis Carroll’s real name is Charles Lutwidge Dodgson, the first of 11 children of a clergyman. Born on Jan. 27, 1832, he soon became the family entertainer, with magic tricks, puppet shows, parodies, poems, word play puzzles and a family newspaper. He went to Rugby school and studied mathematics at Christchurch College, Oxford. After graduating, he remained at Christchurch as a lecturer in mathematics; however he was not a good teacher- perhaps because of his stammer-and was better known as a writer on maths and logic, writing more than 30 papers. He also held various administrative posts at the university.
He met the Liddell children (daughters of the Dean of Christchurch) in the late 1850s, and started by photographing them. Dodgson was something of a pioneer in the early days of photography.
It was a trip up the river from Oxford to Godstow with Lorina(13), Alice(10) and Edith (8) on 4th July 1862 which laid the foundations of the first Alice story, although many of the elements were things he had already invented. The book was finally published as Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland in 1868, with illustrations by John Tenniel, which have become as famous as the story itself. It was an instant success, and has remained a classic of children’s literature in English. His pen-name--Lewis Carroll--was a word-play from a Latinised inversion of his own first two names.
Unlike many writers, Dodgson made the sequel Through the Looking Glass and What Alice Found There equally interesting and amusing. It was published in 1871. His long nonsense poem The Hunting of the Snark was published in 1876, and towards the end of his life the two long Sylvie and Bruno novels, but were neither as good nor as successful as the Alice books.
Dodgson died on 14th January 1898.
II. 过去进行时
构成：过去进行时是由was/were +v.-ing构成的。与现在进行时类似，只是现在进行时中的am/is/are 变成了was/were.
过去进行时的用法：
1． 表示过去某时正在进行的动作或情况
It was raining all night /all yesterday.
2． 过去某时并行的动作
While I was working in the garden, my wife was cooking dinner
3. 表示过去重复的动作
When he worked here, roger was always making mistakes.
过去进行时和一般过去时：
一般过去时通常表示过去发生的而现在已经结束的事件，动作或情况
Sam phoned a moment ago.
I saw Fred in town.
I had a word with Juliann this morning.
用一般过去时通常指动作何时发生，而不指动作持续多久。过去进行时和一般过去时经常同在一个句子里使用。过去进行时表示过去正在进行的情况或动作，一般过去时则表示比较短暂的动作或事件。正在进行中的动作或情况往往由连词when, as, just as, while等引导。
Jane met frank when she was living in Hollywood.
Just as I was leaving the house, the phone rang.
