Period 2Learning about
language The Present Continuous Tense for Future ActionsBetty is going off (leaving for) to Guangzhou by plane tomorrow.
Bob is going to the airport by taxi next week.
Students find the rules by observing the following sentences:3) Jane is staying in Xi’an with her parents.
4) Bob is coming with Betty to see her off.
此四句是现在进行时代替将来时,表示一个最近按计划或安排打算要进行的动作,这类动词通常是瞬间动作,只限于少数动词,常见的有:go, come, leave, sleep, stay, play, do, have, take, get to, see off, etc.
小结:1)How are you feeling today?
2)He is always thinking others.
3)You are always leaving things about.
4)He is always talking big.亲切赞许不满厌烦此四句是现在进行时代替一般现在时,表示一个经常性重复的动作或状态,这时句中常带always 或forever,以表示说话人的某种表情,如赞叹,厌烦,埋怨,等或强调情况的暂时性使其生动。The Present Continuous Tense for the present actions:小结:The plane takes off at 9:30.
My plane leaves at 7:00.
When does the winter holiday begin?
What time does the train leave for Shanghai?
此四句表示将来的事情已经“列入日程” 或按计划将要发生,则用一般现在时代替将来时,但仅限于少数动词begin, go, leave, start, take 等。小结:
(1)表示现在进行时的动作有两种含义:
表示说话的时刻正在进行的动作,常与时间状语now, at the moment等连用。
表示现在阶段正在进行的动作,而不一定是说话时正在进行的动作,常与today, this week, this term等连用。
现在进行时用法归纳 Eg. Right now it is the summer vacation and I’m helping my dad on the farm.现在是暑假,我在农场帮我爸爸干活。
I’m sitting on a rock near the river with my friends.我和我的朋友们正坐在河边的一块岩石上。
(2)表示反复性或习惯性的动作,常与副词always, continually等连用,表示说话人的赞扬,厌恶,不满,遗憾等的感彩。
Eg. She’s always changing her mind.她老是改变主意。(厌烦)
(3)表示不久之后肯定将发生,或按计划或安排将要做的事(常与未来的时间状语连用),能这样用的动词多是表示“位移”“停留”的,如come, go , leave, arrive, start, begin等。
Eg. Mother is taking us home to see my grandma on Sunday.星期天母亲将带我们回老家看我祖母。
He will write you a letter next week.他下个星期会给你写信。
小结:will/shall+动词原形,表示将来某个时间要发生的动作或存在的状态;或表示自然趋势或非主语意志。
I shall be sixteen years old next month. 
下个月我将十六岁了。(自然趋势)
表示将来的时态还有下列的方法:②be going to +动词原形,表示“就要……”,“打算……”或将要发生的事。
Eg. We’re not going to have any classes next week.
表示“位移”的词,如arrive, come, go , leave, start, begin等,可用一般现在时表示将来安排好或即将发生的事。语气比现在进行时更肯定。
Eg. The next train leaves at 9:15.
Practice: Students finish the Ex.3 on P21. After that, students give their own answers.Translate the following statements:我下个月将去美国。

Ⅱ.阅读理解
Arriving in Sydney on his own from India,my husband,Rashid,stayed in a hotel for a short time while looking for a house for me and our children.
During the first week of his stay,he went out one day to do some shopping.He came back in the late afternoon to discover that his suitcase was gone.He was extremely worried as the suitcase had all his important papers,including his passport.
He reported the case to the police and then sat there,lost and lonely in a strange city,thinking of the terrible troubles of getting all the paperwork organized again from a distant country while trying to settle down in a new one.
Late in the evening,the phone rang.It was a stranger.He was trying to pronounce my husband’s name and was asking him a lot of questions.Then he said they had found a pile of papers in their trash can (垃圾桶) that had been left out on the footpath.
My husband rushed to their home to find a kind family holding all his papers and documents.Their young daughter had gone to the trash can and found a pile of unfamiliar papers.Her parents had carefully sorted them out,although they had found mainly foreign addresses on most of the documents.At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.
That family not only restored the important documents to us that day but also restored our faith and trust in people.We still remember their kindness and often send a warm wish their way.
1.What did Rashid plan to do after his arrival in Sydney?
A.Go shopping. B.Find a house.
C.Join his family. D.Take his family.

答案: B
2.The girl’s parents got Rashid’s phone number from________.
A.a friend of his family B.a Sydney policeman
C.a letter in his papers D.a stranger in Sydney
解析: 推理判断题。根据第五段的At last they had seen a half-written letter in the pile in which my husband had given his new telephone number to a friend.可知,他们是从文件中的一封信中发现了Rashid的电话号码,然后给他打了电话。
答案: C
3.What does the underlined word “restored” in the last paragraph mean?
A.Showed. B.Sent out.
C.Delivered. D.Gave back.
解析: 词义猜测题。根据restored所在的句子以及上文可知,作者的丈夫丢失了文件,捡到文件的那一家人把文件归还给了他们。restore表示“(将某失物等)归还原主”,相当于give back。
答案: D
4.Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A.From India to Australia
B.Living in a New Country
C.Turning Trash to Treasure
D.In Search of New Friends
解析: 主旨大意题。作者丈夫丢失的重要文件是被一家人在垃圾桶中发现的,然后归还给了他们。由此可知选C“失而复得(变废为宝)”。

答案: B
2.A.put B.got
C.glanced D.turned
解析: 她瞥了一眼“我”买的报纸说:“我早就厌烦了头版的那些消极的东西。我想读些好一点的东西,换一换口味。”这里glance at是固定短语,表示“对……看一眼,瞥见”。
答案: C
3.A.tired of B interested in
C.careful about D.fond of
解析: 此处指“我厌倦了头版上的这些消极的东西”。be tired of表示“厌倦”。
答案: A
4.A.latest B.good
