课件52张PPT。Unit 1 A land of diversityUnit 1 California
California, a state in the western United States, borders the Pacific Ocean. The third largest state in the Union, California covers an area of great physical diversity in which uplands dominate the landscape. The mountains, hills, ridges, and peaks of California border the coastline, rise to nearly 4,600 meters in the towering Sierra Nevada, encircle the great fertile basin of the Central Valley, and separate the desert into innumerable basins. However, despite the physical dominance and economic value of the uplands, California's urban areas and economic production are concentrated in the valleys and lowlands, such as in the huge metropolitan region centered on Los Angeles, the state's largest and the nation's second largest city. Manufacturing, agriculture, and related activities are the principal sources of income. They are based in large part on the state's wealth of natural resources, its productive farmlands, its large and highly skilled labor force, and its ability to market its output both at home and abroad.
The name California was first used to designate the region by the Spanish expedition led by Juan, as it sailed northward along the coast from Mexico in 1542. The name itself was probably derived from a popular Spanish novel published in 1510 in which a fictional island paradise named California was described. The state's official nickname is the Golden State, referring to the gold rush, which played a central role in California's entry into the Union on September 9,1850, as the 31st state. The nickname also suggests the state's golden fields and sunshine.Section Ⅰ Warming Up and Reading 栏目导航Ⅰ.Read the text and match the main idea with each paragraph.

Exactly when the first people arrived in what we now know as California, no one really knows.(教材P2)
没有人知道第一批开拓者首次到达我们现在称之为加利福尼亚的确切时间。
点拨:这是一个多重复合句:1)主句是no one really knows,exactly when…是know的宾语从句,这是为了强调而将宾语前置; 2) what在本句中引导宾语从句,作介词in的宾语,意为“所……之事”。what用作代词,在意义上译法非常灵活,它可以指“……的东西”“……的人”“……的时间”“……的地点”等;在句法中可以作主语、宾语、表语,相当于定语从句中的“先行词+关系代词”。具体用法如下:
(1)指代“……的东西”,意为“什么;多少;怎么;……的;所……的”,相当于something that。
①You have to consider what you should do next.
你必须考虑下一步该做什么。
(2)指代“……的人”,意为“……的样子;面貌;状况”,相当于the person that/who。
②—In my opinion,you should owe your success mostly to your parents.
——我认为你的成功主要归功于你的父母。
—You are right.They have brought me up and made me what I am.
——对,是他们把我培养成我现在的样子。
(3)指代“……的地方”,相当于the place that。
③A modern city has been set up in what was a wasteland ten years ago.
一座现代化城市已在十年前还是一片荒地的地方建起了。
(4)指代“……的时间”,相当于the time that。
④After what seemed to be a long time, the soldier came back to life.
似乎过了很长时间之后,士兵苏醒了过来。单句改错。
(1)—What a mess! You are always so lazy.
—I'm not to blame, mum. I am how you have made me.
解析:句意(答语):不要怪我,妈妈。是你把我惯成这么懒,what引导表语从句,在从句中作宾语补足语。make sb.+宾补,使某人怎么样。
(2)Towards nightfall they arrived in which seemed like a valley.
解析:句意:傍晚时他们来到似乎像山谷的一个地方,which哪一个,表示疑问;what引导介词宾语从句,在从句中充当主语。whatwhatPoint ? It is believed that sb./sth…=
sb./sth.is believed to…
It is believed that before long the mix of nationalities will be so great that there will be no distinct major racial or cultural groups,but simply a mixture of many races and cultures.(教材P3)
人们认为,要不了多久,多种国籍的混合将会非常之大,以至于不能存在一种主要的种族或文化群体,而只是多种族、多文化的混合体。
点拨:It is believed that…是一个常用句型,其中,it 是形式主语,真正的主语是后面的 that从句。类似的结构还有:It is said/known/agreed/thought/supposed/reported+that…
此句型可转化成:sb./sth.is said/known/agreed/thought/supposed/reported+to do结构。注意不定式时态的变化。
①据说罗伯特明天要出国学习。
It is said that Robert is going to study abroad tomorrow.
→Robert is said to study abroad tomorrow.
(be said to do/to be done表示未来动作,意为“据说要做……”。)②据报道这家银行昨天遭劫了。
It is said in the newspaper that the bank was robbed yesterday.
→The bank is said to have been robbed yesterday according to the newspaper.
(be said to have done/have been done表示完成的动作,意为“据说做过了……”。)
③据说这儿正在建造一家新超市。
It is said that a new supermarket is being built here.
→A new supermarket is said to be being built here.
(be said to be doing/be being done表示进行的动作,意为“据说正在做……”。)单句语法填空。
(1)His health, however, is in doubt. He is believed______________(suffer) a stroke in 2012, and recent photos show a frail(虚弱的) man.
(2)_____is reported, a rebuilding project, announced cancelled two years ago, restarted after carefully being studied.
解析:句意:据报道,两年前宣布取消的那个重建项目,经过仔细研究又重新启动了。关键是reported后的逗号,as引导非限制性定语从句,代指后面句子的内容。 to have sufferedAs 课件26张PPT。Unit 1 A land of diversityUnit 1 Section Ⅱ Learning about Language栏目导航名词性从句
一、在句中起名词作用的从句叫名词性从句,它包括主语从句、宾语从句、表语从句和同位语从句。如:
①Whether he will come here or not is unimportant to me.(___从句)
他是否来这对我来说不重要。

他在比赛中死亡的消息震惊了我们所有人。二、引导名词性从句的连接词1.that引导的从句如果作介词的宾语,只可用在except,in,but,besides等少数介词后。如:
①I could say nothing but that I'm sorry.
我只能说我很抱歉。
that引导的从句可作it的同位语从句。如:
②You may depend upon it that all the goods will be delivered in time.
请放心,所有的货物都会准时交付。2.that引导宾语从句时通常可省略,作介词的宾语时不可省略,that引导其他名词性从句时一般不省略,特别是引导主语从句且位于句首时。如:
①That the earth is round is true.
地球是圆的(这件事)是真的。
②The fact that he is a thief got around.
他是小偷的事实传开了。
【注意】下面一句中,第一个that可省略,第二个that不可省略:
③He said (that) he had been working here for ten years and that he wanted to go home.
他说他已经在这里工作了十年,他想回家。3.whether与if引导名词性从句时的区别。
(1)在引导宾语从句时whether与if可互换,但如果和or not连用则只能用whether。如:
①I don't know whether or not he can stay here longer.
我不知道他是否能再待在这了。
(2)如果宾语从句是否定结构,则用if而不用whether引导。如:
②He asked me if I wasn't going there.
他问我是不是不会去那里。
(3)介词宾语从句只能用whether引导。如:
③I'm not interested in whether he is rich.
我对他是否富有不感兴趣。(4)引导主语从句、表语从句或同位语从句一般用whether。如:
④Whether it will do us harm or good remains to be seen.
它对我们是有害还是有益,还得等着瞧。
⑤The question is whether you can do it yourself.
问题是你是否能独自做。
⑥The question whether he will come here isn't decided yet.
他是否会来这的问题还没有决定。
(5)用it作形式主语时,whether或if都可以引导主语从句。如:
⑦It is not clear to me whether/if he likes the present.
我也不清楚他是否喜欢这礼物。4.注意what/whatever,who/whoever,which/whichever的区别。试比较下列句子:
①Whoever will go to the concert please sign your name here.
=Anyone who will go to the concert please sign your name here.
任何想去音乐会的人请在这里签上名字。
②Who will go to the concert isn't known.
=It's unknown who will go to the concert.
不知道谁要去音乐会。
③He won't believe whatever she says.
=No matter what she says,he won't believe her.
他不相信她说的任何话。
④Whichever toy you want is yours.
=No matter which toy you want,it is yours.
不论你想要哪一个玩具,那都是你的。5.注意how long/how soon/how often/how much的区别。如:
①How long will he stay here?
他将在这里待多久?
②How soon can you be ready?
你多久能准备好?
③How often do you visit her?
你多长时间去探望她一次?
④How much is that dress?
那件衣服多少钱?6.当主句谓语动词表示不肯定或怀疑时,宾语从句用whether/if引导;表示有把握时用that引导。如:
①I doubt whether/if he can win the match.
我怀疑他能否赢得这场比赛。
②I don't doubt that he can win the match.
我毫不怀疑他能赢得这场比赛。7.what与that在引导主语从句时的区别。
what引导主语从句时在从句中充当句子成分,如主语、宾语、表语,而that则不然。如:
①What you said yesterday is right.
你昨天说的是对的。
②That she is still alive is a fact.
她还活着,这是事实。(一)主语从句
主语从句是在复合句中充当主语的名词性从句,通常放在主句谓语动词之前或由形式主语it代替,而本身放在句子末尾。
1.it 作形式主语和it引导强调句的比较
it 作形式主语代替主语从句,主要是为了平衡句子结构,主语从句的连接词没有变化。而it引导的强调句则是对句子某一部分进行强调,无论强调的是什么成分,都可用连词that引导。被强调部分指人时也可用who/whom引导。如:
①It is a pity that you didn't go to see the film.
你没去看那场电影真是遗憾。
②It was Tom that/who told us the news.
告诉我们这个消息的人是汤姆。2.主语从句不可位于句首的五种情况
(1)if 引导的主语从句不可居于复合句句首。如:
有没有人帮过他还不知道。
Whether someone helped him is still unknown.(√)
If someone helped him is still unknown.(×)
(2)It is said (reported)…结构中的主语从句不可提前。如:
据说习主席下周要来我校视察。
It is said that President xi will visit our school next week.(√)
That President xi will visit our school next week is said.(×)
(3)It happens…/It occurs…结构中的主语从句不可提前。如:
他考试没及格。
It occurred to him that he failed in the examination.(√)
That he failed in the examination occurred to him.(×)
(4)It doesn't matter how/whether…结构中的主语从句不可提前。如:
他是不是错了,这一点不重要。
It doesn't matter whether he is wrong or not.(√)
Whether he is wrong or not doesn't matter.(×)
(5)含主语从句的复合句是疑问句时,主语从句不可提前。如:
傍晚有可能下雨吗?
Is it likely that it will rain in the evening?(√)
Is that will rain in the evening likely?(×)(二)宾语从句
宾语从句是在复合句中充当宾语的名词性从句,通常放在主句谓语动词(及物动词)或介词之后。
1.作动词的宾语
(1)由that引导的宾语从句(that 通常可以省略)。如:
I heard that he joined the army.
我听说他参军了。
(2)由what,whether,if 引导的宾语从句。如:
She did not know what had happened.
她不知道发生了什么事。
(3)动词+间接宾语+宾语从句(此时that通常不省略)。如:
She told me that she would accept my invitation.
她跟我说她愿意接受我的邀请。2.作介词的宾语。如:
Our success depends upon how well we can cooperate with one another.
我们的成功取决于我们的合作情况。
3.作形容词的宾语。如:
I am afraid (that) I've made a mistake.
我恐怕是犯错了。【注意】that 引导的从句常跟在下列形容词后作宾语:anxious,aware,certain,confident,convinced,determined,glad,proud,surprised,worried,sorry,thankful,ashamed,disappointed,annoyed,pleased,hurt,satisfied,content 等。也可以将此类词后的that 从句看作原因状语从句。
4.it 作形式宾语
it不仅可以作为形式主语,还可以作为形式宾语而把真正的宾语that 从句放在句尾,特别是在带复合宾语的句子中。如:
We heard it that she would get married next month.
我们听说她打算下个月结婚。5.后边不能直接跟that从句的动词
这类动词有:refuse, let, like, cause, force, admire,condemn, celebrate, allow, dislike, love, help, take, forgive等。这类词后可以用不定式或动名词作宾语,但不可以用that引导的宾语从句作宾语。如:
我非常羡慕他们赢得了比赛的胜利。
I admire their winning the match.(√)
I admire that they won the match.(×)6.不可用that从句作直接宾语的动词
有些动词不可用于“动词+间接宾语+that从句”结构中,常见的有envy,order,accuse,refuse,impress,forgive,blame,denounce, advise, congratulate等。如:
作为一个诚实的人,他给经理留下了很深的印象。
He impressed the manager as an honest man.(√)
He impressed the manager that he was an honest man.(×)
7.否定的转移
若主句谓语动词为think,consider,suppose,believe,expect,fancy,guess,imagine等,其后的宾语从句若含有否定意义,一般要把否定词转移到主句谓语上,从句谓语用肯定式。如:
I don't think this dress fits you well.
我认为这件衣服不适合你穿。
(三)表语从句
表语从句是在复合句中作表语的名词性从句,放在系动词之后,一般结构是“主语+连系动词+表语从句”。可以接表语从句的连系动词有be,look,remain,seem等。另外,常用的还有The reason is that…和It is because 等结构。如:
①The question is whether we can make good preparation in such a short time.
问题是我们能否在那么短的时间内做好充分的准备。
②This is why we can't get the support of the people.
这就是我们得不到人民支持的原因。课件49张PPT。Unit 1 A land of diversityUnit 1 Section Ⅲ Using Language栏目导航Ⅰ.Scan the text and choose the best answer according to the text.
