means
【点拨】means n. 手段,方法
There is no doubt that radio and television are important means of communication.
毫无疑问,收音机和电视是信息交流的重要工具。
【辨析】means, way 及method的用法区别
means, way和method三个词都有“方法、方式、手段”的意思,它们的区别如下:
means的单复数同形,比如我们可以说every means,也可以说all means。means常和介词by搭配使用,构成常见搭配by means of“通过……的手段/方法”,of后可以跟名词或动词的-ing形式等。如:
We have to consider a new means of living.
我们必须考虑新的谋生手段。
We express ourselves by means of speech.
我们通过语言来表达思想。
way表示“方法”时,前面可以用介词in,当way前有this或that时,介词可以省略;way后可以接动词不定式或of介词短语(of后只能跟名词或动词的-ing形式)。看下面几个例句:
He always speaks in a careful way.
他说话总是十分谨慎。
Man is trying to find ways of controlling pollution.
人类正在寻求控制污染的方法。
method一般指(系统的)一套方法,其前通常用介词with,后面常接of介词短语,of后可接名词或动词的-ing形式。如:
The young teacher used a new method of teaching.
那位年轻老师采用了一种新的教学方法。
I worked out the maths problem with a different method.
我用不同的方法解出了这个数学题。
Unit 5
fun
【点拨】1. It’s fun后接不定式或动名词均可,意思基本相同。如:
It’s great fun to sail a boat.?
扬帆驾舟十分有趣。
2.?表示做某事很开心,重点句型have?(there is)?fun?(in)?doing sth。如:
We had fun riding our bicycles to the beach today.
?我们今天骑自行车去海滨玩得很开心。
There’s no fun in spending the evening doing nothing.
?晚上无事可干,很无聊。
3.?以下各例中的fun虽用作表语,但仍为名词,而非形容词,故可用great, much, a lot of等形容词修饰,而不用very等副词修饰。如:
She’s great fun to be with.?
同她在一起很有意思。
Why don’t you come with us? It’ll be great fun.?
干吗不同我们一起去呢?很有趣的。
4.?注意for fun(为了高兴,为了好玩)与in fun(不是当真的,闹着玩的,开玩笑地)意不同。比较:
I am not saying it for fun.?
我说这话并不是在开玩笑。
He said so only in fun.?
他这样说只是开开玩笑。
at ease
【点拨】feeling relaxed, especially in a situation in which people might feel a little nervous, 常与with 连用。

听到孩子们都很安全,她才放心。
He is at ease about the matter.
他对这事很放心。

她和伯纳德在一起感到完全没有拘束。

【点拨】no wonder"怪不得",it's no wonder/small wonder/little wonder"并不奇怪,不足为奇"
(It's)No wonder you're tired, you've been walking for hours.
难怪你累了呢,你一直走了好几个小时。
【拓展】I wonder if/whether...我不知道是否
I am wondering if/whether 不知道可不可以

Shu Pulong has helped at least 1000 people bitten by snakes. “It was seeing people with snake bites that led me to this career,” he said.
In 1963, after his army service, Shu entered a medical school and later became a doctor of Chinese medicine. As part of his studies he had to work in the mountains. There he often heard of people who had their arms and legs cut off after a snake bite in order to save their lives.
“I was greatly upset by the story of an old farmer I met. It was a very hot afternoon. The old man was pulling grass in his fields when he felt a pain in his left hand. He at once realized he had been bitten by a poisonous snake. In no time he wrapped a cloth tightly around his arm to stop the poison spreading to his heart. Rushing home he shouted “Bring me the knife! Minutes later the man lost his arm forever.”
“The sad story touched me so much that I decided to devote myself to helping people bitten by snakes,” Shu said.

六、阅读理解
When the dog named Judy spotted the first sheep in her life, she did what comes naturally. The four-year-old dog set off racing after the sheep across several fields and, being a city animal, lost both her sheep and her sense of direction. Then she ran along the edge of cliff( 悬崖) and fell 100 feet, bouncing off a rock into the sea.
Her owner Mike Holden panicked and celled the coastguard of Cornwall, who turned up in seconds . Six volunteers slid down the cliff with the help of a rope but gave up all hope of finding her alive after a 90-minute search.
Three days later, a hurricane hit the coast near Cornwall. Mr. Holden returned home from his holiday upset and convinced his pet was dead. He comforted himself with the thought she had died in the most beautiful part of the country.
For the next two weeks, the Holdens were heartbroken . Then, one day, the phone rang and Steve Tregear, the coastguard of Cornwall, asked Holder if he would like his dog bark.
A birdwatcher, armed with a telescope, found the pet sitting desperately on a rock. While he sounded the alarm, a student from Leeds climbed down the cliff to collect Judy.
The dog had initially been knocked unconscious(失去知觉的)but had survived by drinking water from a fresh scream at the base of the cliff. She may have fed on the body of a sheep which had also fallen over the edge. “The dog was very thin and hungry,” Steve Tregear said , “It was a very dog. She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water,” he added.
It was ,as Mr. Holden admitted, “a minor miracle(奇迹)”.

A. rescuing her owner B. caught in a hurricane
C. blocked by a rock D. running after a sheep
2. Who spotted Judy after the accident?
A. A birdwatcher B. A student from Leeds
C. Six volunteers D. The coastguard of Cornwall
3. What can we infer from the text?
A. People like to travel with their pets.
B. Judy was taken to the fields for hunting.
C. Luck plays a vital role in Judy's survival.
D. Holden cared little where Judy was buried.
4. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. Miracle of the Coastguard. B. Surviving a Hurricane.

1. fun 2. rank 3. Defended 4. faced 5. curious 6. approaching
二、完成句子
1. picked out 2. provided 3. No wonder 4. are likely to 5. in advance 6. Whatever
三、词义辨析
(1)means (2) way (3) method
四、语法填空
1. arrived【解析】根据主句It was raining可知用过去时态,所以谓语动词用arrived。
2. earlier/before【解析】表示时间,且后句为过去完成时,所以用earlier/before,容易误写ago(只能和一般过去时连用)。
3. its【解析】with介词结构,it指代前面的Hong Kong修饰后面的名词smog,所以用形容词性物主代词形式。
4. that/which【解析】 因为定语从句缺主语,所以用which/that代指the Li River。
5. paintings【解析】 因为前面有so many,所以用复数形式。
6. by【解析】介词短语by car,坐车。
7. is 【解析】 考察时态及主谓一致。Yangshuo 是单数,描述其美景应该用一般现在时。
8. conducted【解析】因为句子的谓语动词是name…as…(把……命名为……),conduct只能是非谓语动词,再加上后面有by,所以用过去分词形式。
9. regularly【解析】 修饰动词arrange应该用regular的副词形式。
10. living【解析】句子不缺谓语动词,live只能用非谓语形式,又因为people和live之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词形式。
五、完型填空
1. D。根据第一段开头refused to settle for the start of the lessons和第二段中的the children fell silent可知文章一开始作者试图开始上课,但是教室太吵闹。所以选quiet。
2. A。根据后文I thought —teaching was not for me可知,作者认为这是最后一次作为音乐老师上课。
3. B。根据前文My panic was raising and I could feel my heart beating wildly可知作者当时很生气很激动,但是没有办法,他试图不让学生发现他内心的情绪,用shaking表达作者内心强烈的情感。
4. A。根据第三段开头…my class lay their heads on their desk, closed their eyes…可知,此时作者要孩子们将头放在桌子上然后闭上眼睛。
5. C。Punctually准时地;Importantly重要地;Amazingly令人惊讶地;Obviously明显地。作者无意识的做法让学生安静下来,用amazingly表达作者的惊讶的心情。
6. D。passe on 继续传递;give back 还回;turned in 上交;take out 拿出。根据语境,应是作者随意取出一张CD。
7.C。根据下文When the music started, the room was filled with the most beautiful tones and musical colors可知,当作者将音乐放进机器里,学生们趴在自己的桌子上静静地等着音乐响起来,故选C。
8.D。老师在放音乐,当然学生们都在听,listening比其他选项都合适。故选D。
9.B。raise sb’s head(s) 抬起头来。句意:当音乐放完的时候,我要求他们所有人慢慢地抬起头来,那样的话,我们就可以一起分享我们的音乐之旅。故选B
10.A。根据上文At this point, when all the children were willing to share their experiences可知,学生们从开始的不愿响应作者到最后跟着作者一起参与其中,这让作者开始知道怎么教书了,故选A。
11.C。unprepared为准备好的;unspoken没说出口的;unknown未知的;unforgotten难忘的;根据上文有the knowing已知的,又有and连接,可知填unknown未知的,构成像上文tears and smiles那样的对比,故选C。
12.B.根据前文The music allowed me to learn that teaching is about sharing and respect…可知,音乐让我们知道了分享和尊重,泪水和欢笑,已知与未知,最重要的是让我们相互了解,所以最后作者总结:这就是音乐在课堂所拥有的力量。
六、阅读理解
1. D。解析:根据原文Then she ran along the edge of cliff( 悬崖) and fell 100 feet, bouncing off a rock into the sea.得知狗在追一只羊,不慎第二额悬崖,可知答案应该是选D。
2. A。解析:根据文章第五段的句子:A birdwatcher, armed with a telescope, found the pet sitting desperately on a rock. 可知事故后是一个观鸟者看见了Judy,故选A。
3. C。解析:根据文章第六段的句子:It was a very lucky dog. She survived because of a plentiful supply of fresh water.可知在Judy的事故中运气起着至关重要的作用。故选C。
4. D。解析:根据文章的内容可知介绍一只狗掉到悬崖下面死里逃生的经历,所以用/Coming Back from the Dead比较合适。故选D。
