课件56张PPT。Inventors and inventionsUnit 3 Words and Their Stories:Grapevine(词汇掌故:小道消息)
The American inventor,Samuel F.Morse,is largely responsible for the birth of the expression.Among others,he experimented with the idea of telegraphy—sending messages over a wire by electricity.When Morse finally completed his telegraphic instrument,he went before Congress to show that it worked.He sent a message over a wire from Washington to Baltimore.The message was,“What hath God wrought?” This was on May twenty-fourth,eighteen forty-four.Quickly,companies began to build telegraph lines from one place to another.Men everywhere seemed to be putting up poles with strings of wire for carrying telegraphic messages.The workmanship was poor and the wires were not put up straight.
Some of the results looked strange.People said they looked like a grapevine.A large number of the telegraph lines were going in all directions,as crooked as the vines that grapes grow on.So was born the expression,by the grapevine.Some writers believe that the phrase would soon have disappeared were it not for the American Civil War.
Soon after the war began in 1861,military commanders started to send battlefield reports by telegraph.People began hearing the phrase by the grapevine to describe false as well as true reports from the battlefield.It was like a game.Was it true? Who says so?
Now,as in those far?off Civil War days,getting information by the grapevine remains something of a game.A friend brings you a bit of strange news.“No,” you say,“it just can't be true! Who told you?” Comes the answer,“I got it by the grapevine.”
You really cannot know how much—if any—of the information that comes to you by the grapevine is true or false.Still,in the words of an old American saying,the person who keeps pulling the grapevine shakes down at least a few grapes.Section Ⅰ Warming Up and Reading 栏目导航Ⅰ.Read the text and match the main idea with each paragraph.

Between the outside and the inside walls of the bowl there is some jelly,which freezes when cooled.(教材P20)在碗内外侧有一些果冻,冷却时它们冻得很结实。
点拨:这里的when cooled 相当于when it (the jelly) is cooled。过去分词(也包括现在分词)作状语时常常可以和从属连词同时使用。当when/while/if/unless引导的状语从句中的主语与主句的主语相同,或从句主语是it,谓语中包含be时,可将从句中的主语与be省去,用“when/while/if/unless+doing/done/adj./prep.”结构表示从句内容。①When offered help,you should say “thank you” or “it' s very kind of you”.

我所做的第一件事就是看看有没有现成的产品能帮助我,但是,看来只有一种毒杀蛇的药粉。
点拨:本句为but连接的两个并列分句,句中there seemed to be是there be句型的变体,表示“似乎有……”。
there be句型有多种变体,主要有:
(1)There+seem/happen/appear to be+主语+其他

点拨:句中Only修饰after引导的时间状语从句,can you say运用了部分倒装形式。以 only开头的句子,如果only修饰的是句子的状语或状语从句,主句要部分倒装,但only修饰主语时,句子不倒装。

直到做了调查后发现你的产品确实与众不同,这时你才会获得专利。
点拨:句中Nor will you receive…是nor引起的一个部分倒装结构。以否定词nor,not,never,hardly,seldom,neither,not only等开头的句子,主句要部分倒装。倒装时要注意根据句子的时态选择正确形式的助动词、情态动词和系动词。①Never have I read such a book.
我从未读过这样的书。
②Little do we know about his life.
我们对他的生活了解得很少。

一、过去分词作表语
过去分词作表语时,总是在系动词(如be,appear,feel,remain,seem,look等)之后,构成系表结构。
①All the doors are locked.
所有的门都是锁着的。
②She is neatly dressed.

他觉得身体彻底垮了。
④They seemed terribly shocked.
他们似乎极度震惊。
⑤The children looked puzzled.
孩子们都像是迷惑不解。二、过去分词作定语
过去分词作定语,在语态上,表被动;在时间上,表示动作已经发生或完成。
1.过去分词作定语有时也不表示时间性。例如:
①He is a teacher loved by his students.
他是个很受学生爱戴的老师。
2.也有用不及物动词的过去分词作定语的情况,一般作前置定语,它不表示被动意义,只强调动作完成。不能像及物动词的过去分词那样放在名词后面作定语。例如:
②fallen leaves 落叶
③retired workers 退休工人
④the risen sun 升起的太阳
3.过去分词前加一名词或副词,常用连字符将它们连接起来构成一个复合形容词,放在其修饰的名词前,作前置定语。分词前加的名词表示分词的动作或行为主体,所加的副词表示方式、时间、程度、性质等意义。例如:
⑤This is a state-owned factory.
这是一家国营工厂。
⑥This is our newly-built factory.
这是我们的新建的工厂。三、过去分词作补语(主补、宾补)
1.用过去分词作补语的动词有以下三类:
(1)表示感觉或心理状态的动词。如:see, watch, observe, look at, hear, listen to, feel, notice, think等。
①I heard the song sung in English.
我听到有人用英语唱过这首歌。
②He found his hometown greatly changed.
他发现他的家乡变化很大。(2)表示“致使”意义的动词。如:have, make, get, keep, leave等。
③I'll have my hair cut tomorrow.
明天我要理发。
④He got his tooth pulled out yesterday.
他昨天把牙拔了。
⑤Don't leave those things undone.
要把那些事情做完。
(3)表示“希望”、“要求”意义的动词。如:like,order,want,wish,expect等,后用 “vt.+(to be)+pp.”。
⑥I would like this matter (to be) settled at once.
我希望此事立刻得到解决。
⑦I wish my homework (to be) finished before five o'clock.
我希望5点前完成我的作业。
【注意】过去分词作补语还用在“with(without)+宾语+补语”结构中。例如:
⑧All the afternoon,he worked with the door locked.
整个下午,他都是锁着门干活。
⑨Without the job finished,I wouldn't dare to go home.
由于工作没有干完,我不敢回家。 2.过去分词作宾补时,要注意以下几种情况:
(1)使役动词have接过去分词作宾补有两种情况。
1)过去分词所表示的动作由他人完成。如:
⑩He had his money stolen.
他的钱给偷了。(被别人偷去了)
2)过去分词所表示的动作由句中的主语所经历。如:
He had his leg broken.
他的腿断了。(自己的经历)(2)过去分词在原句中作宾补时,如果原句变为被动语态,那么过去分词就在新句中作主补了。如:
The big fire is reported controlled.
据报道这场大火已经得到控制。
The meeting room was found thoroughly cleaned and everything arranged in good order.
人们发现会议室被彻底打扫了,一切都布置得井井有条。课件37张PPT。Inventors and inventionsUnit 3 Section Ⅲ Using Language栏目导航Ⅰ.Read the text and match the main idea with each paragraph.

但是贝尔是在五天以后才跟他的助手华生通了第一次电话。
点拨:该句是 “It is/was not until+被强调部分+that+其他”结构,意为“直到……才……”。句中用了not…until…的强调句结构,此句型只能用until,不能用till。但如果不是用在强调句型中,till与until常可通用;另外主句中的否定词not 要提出来,放在until之前一起强调,因此that后面的从句要用肯定句,不能再用否定句。①He didn't go to bed until/till his wife came back.(正常句式)
=It was not until his wife came back that he went to bed.(强调句式)
直到他的妻子回来他才睡觉。
②They didn't start until the rain stopped.(正常句式)
=It was not until the rain stopped that they started.(强调句式)

求职信分为推荐信和自荐信两种,它是书面表达的重要体裁之一,也是高考书面表达的热点内容。写求职信可按下列七个步骤进行。
第一步:介绍消息来源。介绍消息来源实际上是求职信的开篇交代句,它可使求职信显得自然、顺畅。
第二步:表明求职心愿。介绍完消息来源后,应向收信人表明自己的求职心愿,即写信的目的。如何写求职信第三步:介绍个人简历。某单位需要新人,求职人也有求职心愿,但这并不意味着这项工作非你莫属。如果你没有干好这项工作的经历、实力,也是难以适应的。
第四步:摆出求职优势。仅有一定的工作经历而没有自身的优势和特长,也很难求得称心如意的工作。因此,求职时应表明自己除了具有一定的工作经历之外,还具有一定的优势和特长,这样才能稳操胜券。
第五步:提出获职打算。表明获职后努力工作的决心是感动用人单位的领导从而顺利谋得此项工作的重要一环。第六步:请求答复联系。如果单位领导同意了你的求职要求,你必然要请他和你联系,以便你及时做好准备,到用人单位应聘或报到。为准确起见,请求答复联系时你还应当提供你的通讯地址、邮政编码、电话号码、电子信箱等。
第七步:表明感激之情。无论你的请求是否能够得到满意的答复,你给用人单位写信就是给对方添了麻烦,因此你应向对方表明感激之情。【常用句型】
