“美国甜蜜日”的目的是让人们开心，那么你知道它的起源吗？
Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy.It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick，the aged，and children who have lost their parents，but also friends，workmates，relatives and neighbors 1
Over 60 years ago，when a Cleveland man noticed that some people，such as children who lost their parents and patients who lay in bed，too often felt forgotten and neglected， 2 He did this by giving them small gifts.With the help of his friends and neighbors，he gave those people small gifts on a Saturday in October.During the years that followed，other Clevelanders began to take part in the celebration，which came to be called “Sweetest
Day”．Over time，the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the poor，the sick and children who had lost their parents was broadened to include everyone，and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small gift. 3

【要点提炼】 句中的as作连词，表示原因。意为“因为”。
(1)as作为从属连词，可以引导下列从句
a．时间状语从句，意为“正当……的时候”、“一面……一面……”、“随着……”，从句可放主句之前或主句之后。
b．引导方式状语从句，意为“如同”、“按照……的方式、样子、办法”。as从句总跟在主句之后。
c．as引导让步状语从句，意为“虽然”，多在主句之前，且多用倒装。(应将从句主要成分的形容词、副词、原形动词、不加冠词的单数名词置于as前面)。
d．as引导比较状语从句，意为“和……一样/不一样”。表示同级的比较。使用时要注意第一个as为副词(意为“那么”“如此”)，第二个as为连词(引导的比较状语从句常常用省略)。其基本结构为：as＋adj./adv.＋as。
(2)as作为关系代词，可以引导定语从句，既可以单独使用，也可以与其他词连用，其用法要比that和which更为复杂，而且as在定语从句中可以充当主语、宾语、介词宾语、表语，可以指人也可指物。
(3)as作为介词的用法：表示“好像，作为，当作”。
①As he walked on，he felt himself getting more and more tired.
随着他继续走，他感到他越来越劳累。
②Difficult as it is，we should not give it up.
尽管很难，我们不应该放弃。
③This film is as interesting as that one.
这部电影和那部电影一样有趣。
(教材P53)Every year，the moment I get on the train，I am surrounded by Shanxi accents－and I know that I am heading home to my family.
每年一坐上火车，就会被山西方言包围，我意识到我踏上了与回家的路。
【要点提炼】 句中the moment I get on the train是the moment引导的时间状语从句，the moment表示“一……就”。
表示“一……就”的形式还有：
(1(the minute/second/instant
(2(immediately/directly/instantly
(3(hardly...when...；no sooner...than...
(4(as soon as...
(5(on＋n./doing...
①I went home directly I had finished work.
我一干完活就回家了。
②No sooner had he arrived than he fell sick.
他刚抵达就病倒了。
③They were presented with flowers on arrival/arriving(arrive)at the airport.

被动语态的用法
语 境 自 主 领 悟
先观察原句
后自主感悟
1.Spring Festival is highly valued by every Chinese family.
2.First，the house was cleaned from top to bottom.
3.Fireworks were being let off across the city.
4.The night sky was lighted up by them.
5....I am surrounded by Shanxi accents...
6.Great fun is also enjoyed in the kitchen as the dumplings are being made.
以上各句均为被动语态。其中1、5、6句为一般现在时的被动语态；具体结构是：am/is/are done；2、4句为一般过去时的被动语态，具体
结构是：was/were done；3句为过去进行时的被动语态，具体结构是was/were being done；6句为现在进行时的被动语态，具体结构为am/is/are being done。
一、基本知识
(一)概念
语态是动词的一种形式，它表示句子的主语和谓语动词之间的关系。语态通常分为主动语态和被动语态。主动语态表示主语是动作的执行者，被动语态则表示主语是动作的承受者。
(二)构成
被动语态一般由“助动词be＋及物动词的过去分词”构成。助动词be本身无词义，但有人称、数和时态的变化。
(三)用法
1．讲话者不知道动作的执行者或不必说出动作的执行者。(这时可省略by短语)
My bike was stolen last night.
我的自行车昨晚被偷了。
2．借助被动的动作突出动作的受动者。
The bike was knocked down by a naughty boy.
这辆自行车被一个调皮的小男孩撞倒了。
3．为使句子更加合理、流畅。
The plan was supported by those who wished to live on the campus.
这计划得到希望住在校内的人的支持。
4．习惯用法的需要。
这类词常见的有born，determine，devote，seat，dress，situate等。
He was born in China in 2017.
他于2017年出生在中国。

一般现在时
am/is/are＋过去分词
一般过去时
was/were＋过去分词
一般将来时

过去将来时
would＋be＋过去分词
现在进行时
am/is/are＋being＋过去分词

was/were＋being＋过去分词

These books may be kept for two weeks.
这些书可以借两周。(含情态动词)
[名师点津]
被动语态中的be动词有时可用get来代替。“get＋过去分词”一般用来谈论突然发生的事件，只表示动作，不表示状态。
She got hurt on her way back home.
她在回家的路上受伤了。
[即时训练2] 用所给动词的正确形式填空
①－Have you heard about that fire in the market?
－Yes，fortunately no one was hurt(hurt)．
②The condition is usually treated with drugs and a strict diet.
③The students have been working hard on their lessons and their efforts will be rewarded(reward)with success in the end.
三、被动语态的注意事项
1．以主动形式表被动意义的动词
(1)表示状态特征的系动词，如look，sound，feel，smell，taste，prove不用于被动语态，其后接形容词或名词构成系表结构，表示被动含义。
The food tastes delicious.
这食物味道鲜美。
The cotton feels soft.
棉花摸上去很软。
(2)表示主语的某种属性特征的动词，如open，shut，lock，sell，write，wash习惯上以主动形式表示被动含义。这类动词一般不单独使用，常有一个修饰语。
This kind of cloth washes well.
这种布好洗。
The engine won't start.
引擎发动不起来。
(3)need，want，require作谓语，其主语为物时，动词后的动名词用主动形式表示被动含义。
The plan required discussing.
这项计划需要讨论。
2．不用被动语态的几种情况
(1)不及物动词或不及物动词短语无被动语态，常见的有：appear，die，disappear，rise，end，fail，happen，last，lie，remain，sit，spread，stand，break out，come true，fall asleep，lose heart，take place等。
The price has risen.
价格升高了。
The accident happened last week.
事故是上周发生的。
[名师点津]
要想正确地使用被动语态，就需注意哪些动词是及物的，哪些是不及物的。特别是一词多义的动词往往有两种用法。解决这一问题唯有在学习过程中多留意积累。
(2)有些及物动词和及物动词短语不能用于被动语态，常见的有：fit，have，hold，marry，own，wish，cost，notice，watch，agree with，arrive at/in，shake hands with，succeed in，suffer from，happen to，take part in，walk into，belong to。
This key just fits the lock.这把钥匙适合这把锁。
Your story agrees with what he heard.
你的故事与他听到的相符。

(2)不及物动词的过去分词形式作定语不表示被动，只表示该动作已经发生或完成。
使役动词的过去分词作定语表示状态。使役动词(如interest, bore, worry, frighten, surprise等)通常用系表结构表示状态，因此它的过去分词作定语表示的是状态而不是被动含义。它的过去分词大多已转化为形容词。
(3)单个的过去分词作定语通常放在名词前面，过去分词短语作定语，或者过去分词的动词接了介词短语等其他成分一起作定语时必须后置。

Ⅲ.概要写作
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
On Sunday，the second day of Spring Festival，a man was killed after he fell into the tiger enclosure while trying to get into the zoo in Ningbo，East China's Zhejiang province，without paying for a ticket.
The tragedy cost two lives，as the tiger was shot dead when zoo employees tried to rescue the man.
As news of the incident spread，the majority of voices online blamed the dead man for the animal's death.Some said this was a sign that people are becoming more cold-hearted.But they are wrong.People have been displaying increasingly more enthusiasm for helping those in need and participating in charity work.In 2016，the China Charity Federation received donations of 18.8 billion yuan($2.7 billion)in total，46 percent more than the donations received in 2015，and they sent helping hands to one tragedy after another.
People are just tired of forgiving those in the wrong.While sympathy is right，it has been abused too much.When somebody commits a crime，no matter how cruel the crime is，media outlets explain the criminal's miserable childhood and there are calls for forgiveness.When someone smokes in public，there are always people calling for tolerance.
People are fed up and angry with lawbreakers escaping their due punishments in the name of forgiveness and tolerance.
But going back to the tragedy at the wildlife park in Ningbo，the tiger's death shows the park was not well prepared for such emergencies.They did not have any tranquilizer guns that could sedate the tiger immediately and save the lives of both the man and the endangered animal.
In the meantime，it is necessary to raise people's awareness that the animals in zoos and wildlife parks are not domesticated pets，and of the need for visitors to observe rules for their own safety.
The man in the Ningbo incident paid for his fault with his life，but the tiger was killed for his fault，too.We sincerely hope no more tigers or humans will pay for such fault.

[文体指导]
1．人称
描述事件时一般以第一或第三人称角度来叙述。用第一人称表示由叙述者亲眼所见、亲耳所闻，它的优点在于能把事件的情节通过“我”来传达给读者，使人读后感到真实可信，如身临其境。
用第三人称叙述的优势在于描述事件时不受活动范围的限制，而是通过作者与读者之外的第三者，直接把故事中的情节展现在读者面前，使文章的客观性更强。
2．时态和顺序
描述已经发生的事件，其基本时态为一般过去时。在描述事件时，我们可以采用顺叙、倒叙、插叙三种叙述方式。
3．过渡
过渡在文章中起着承上启下、融会贯通的作用，往往会用在地点转移，时间、事件转换以及由概括说明到具体叙述上。
4．叙述与对话
引用故事情节中主要人物的对话是描述事件时提高表现力的一种好方法。适当地用直接引语代替间接的主观叙述，可以更客观生动地反映人物的性格、品质和心理状态，从而使文章生动、有趣，内容更加充实、具体。
5．基本要领
①头绪分明，脉络清晰。
②突出重点，详略得当。
③语言活泼，准确生动。
[亮点句式]
1．We had an opening ceremony in which our headmaster announced the start of the festival.
我们举行了开幕式，校长宣布文化节开始。
2．The next day，we had an English Karaoke Contest in the morning，which attracted those who love to sing English songs to show their talent.
第二天早晨，我们举办了英语卡拉OK大赛，吸引了许多爱好音乐的同学来秀才艺。
3．You can't imagine how wonderful the contest is.
你无法想象这次比赛有多么好。
4．What attracted us most was the English Word Contest，which let us realize the pleasure of memorizing words.
最吸引我们的是英语单词大赛，让我们意识到了记忆单词的乐趣。
5．We benefited a lot from the activity，which not only enriched our school life but also made us more interested in English.
这次活动让我们受益很多，不仅丰富了我们的校园生活，而且让我们对英语感兴趣了。
