到目前为止，你觉得这场演出怎么样？
自我探究
so far“到目前为止”，常用于完成时的句子中，有时可以放在句首，有时还可以置于句中或句末。
归纳拓展

我们的政府已经采取措施来帮助那些长期失业者。
③How long have you been looking for employment
你在找工作有多久了？
自我探究
employment意为“雇用；职业”，为不可数名词。in/out of employment“有/无工作”。

A．pay B．pay off
C．pay for D．pay back
解析：选A。动词pay后面跟金钱或相当于金钱的词，表示“付钱”的意思。而短语pay off “还清”；pay for“花钱购买”和pay back“偿还；归还”的意思均和本句话的语境不相符合。
4 There are museums，cinemas，theatres，art galleries，parks，coffee bars，clubs and many other places where people can meet and exchange ideas.

我倒想去度假，可是抽不出时间来。
③How can she afford to eat out every night
她每晚都在外面吃饭如何负担得起？
自我探究
afford为及物动词，意为“买得起；负担得起”。常与can，could，be able to连用，后面接名词、代词或者不定式。afford to do还可以表示“承担得起，有能力做”。
牛刀小试
I’d love to go on the voyage to Tahiti with Robin，but I doubt if we could________something like that.
A．afford B．offer

自我探究
survive在此课中作不及物动词，意为“死里逃生，大难不死”。作及物动词，survive表示“幸存”“(经过……)活下来”，它后面可以直接加war，flood，fire，accident，earthquake，explosion，shipwreck等表示“灾难”的名词。survive sb.比某人长寿；活过某人
牛刀小试
Lucy cut down her daily spending in order to________the financial storm.
A．prevent B．survive
C．keep D．stop
解析：选B。考查动词辨析。句意：露西缩减日常开支，以度过金融风暴。survive“活下来；幸存”。
7There are a number of reasons for this.这有多种原因。
品味经典
①There are a great number of English readings in our library.
我们图书馆里有很多英语读物。
②A great number of tourists have been to the Great Wall.
许多游客去过长城。
句型巧析
自我探究
(1)a number of “一些，许多”，也可以写作numbers of，后接可数名词复数。number之前可以用large，great，huge，good，small等词修饰，表示数量的多少。该短语所修饰的名词作主语时，谓语动词用复数形式。
(2)the number of的意思是：“……的数目、数量”，后接可数名词复数，但作主语时谓语动词用单数。
③Today the number of people learning English in China is increasing rapidly.
目前在中国学习英语的人数正在增加。
牛刀小试
(1)Nowadays，a large number of women，especially those from the countryside，________ in the clothing industry.
A．is working B．works
C．work D．worked
解析：选C。句意：现在许多妇女，特别是来自农村的，在服装行业工作。由nowadays(如今，现在)可以得出应该用现在时，又因为主语是复数，所以A、B两项不对。
(2)As you can see，the number of cars on our roads ________ rising these days.
A．was keeping B．keep
C．keeps D．were keeping
解析：选C。句意：正如你所看到的，这些天路上汽车的数量越来越多。本句的主语是the number of...，故谓语动词用单数形式；these days指现在的情况，故用一般现在时。
8 I love cities，but there are times when I need to get out into the countryside and get away from the noise，the dirt and the people.
我爱城市，但有时我也需要走出去到乡村里，(暂时)远离嘈杂、尘土和人群。
品味经典
①There are times when (on which) one must yield.
任何人都有不得不屈服的时候。
②There was a time when the two countries were at war.
曾经有一个时期，这两个国家在交战。
③It was a time when women couldn’t go to school.
这个时候，妇女不能上学。
自我探究
There are times when...意为“有……的时候”。when引导的是定语从句，修饰times。也可以说成：There/it/is/was a time when...。
牛刀小试
There was ________ time ________ I hated to go to school.
A．a；that B．a；when
C．the；that D．the；when
解析：选B。a time“一个时期，有段时间”。when引导定语从句，修饰time。“有段时间，我不愿去上学”。
In some countries in western Europe，such as France，Spain and Britain，the countryside is changing.
Life has become difficult for many villages，and some are disappearing.There are a number of reasons for this.Firstly，young people from villages usually want to live somewhere livelier and they often move to the towns and do not return.Secondly，people move to the cities to find work，as there are often very few jobs in the countryside.
译文助读
Sometimes villages remain because people from the cities have bought a “second home”in the village，where they come and stay at weekends.The price of homes goes up and people from the area cannot afford to buy a house there.Another problem is that it is becoming more and more difficult for farmers to make money from their farms.So they sell their land and find another job.
All these things mean that many villages in western Europe are fighting to survive.We can only hope that they will remain.The countryside would be a sadder and uglier place without them.
在西欧的一些国家，如法国、西班牙和英国，农村正在发生变化。
在很多村庄里，生活已经变得困难，有些村庄正在消失。导致这种结果的原因有许多(a number of)。首先，村子里的年轻人通常想住在更具活力的地方，他们常常搬到城镇以后就不再回去了。其次，人们搬到城里去找工作，因为乡下常常没有就业机会。
有时一些村庄延续下来是因为城里的人在村子里买下“第二个家”，他们来到这里度周末。于是房屋价格上涨(go up)，当地人因而买不起(cannot afford)那儿的房子。另外一个问题是农民依靠农场挣钱越来越难。因此他们把地卖掉另找一份工作。
所有这些都意味着西欧许多村庄都在为生存(survive)而斗争。我们只能希望它们会幸存下来。失去了它们，农村也许会变得更加孤寂和荒凉。

语法专题突破
品味经典
1．I have been to the Great Wall twice.
2．He is reading the magazine that he has bought recently.
自我探究
上面两句中的划线部分为现在完成时态。第1句表示一种经历，第2句表示到目前已完成的动作。
讲解归纳
一、现在完成时的用法
1．表示发生在过去并对现在仍然有影响的动作。常与时间状语just，recently，so far，up to now，till now，ever，never，already等连用。
China has already made great progress in technology.
中国已经在科技方面取得了很大进步。
I have been to Beijing three times so far.
到目前为止我已经去过北京三次了。
2．表示从过去某时开始而延续到现在的动作或状态，常与时间状语for，since，these days，this year等连用。
We have studied English for six years.
我们学英语已经六年了。
Mr.Zhang has taught here for 8 years.
张老师已在这里教了八年书。
I have worked here since I graduated.
自从毕业以来我一直在这里工作。
3．现在完成时用在时间或条件状语从句中，表示将来某时以前已完成的动作。如：
We’ll start at five if it has stopped raining by that time.
如果那时不下雨的话，我们将会在五点钟出发。
4．现在完成时还可用在时间或条件状语从句中，表示将来某个动作发生之前已经完成的动作。
Don’t get off the bus until it has stopped.
车停稳之前不要下车。
5．在特殊句型中的使用
①在This/It is the first(second，third...)time that...句型中，that从句要用现在完成时。
It is the second time I have met him today.
这是我今天第二次见到他了。
②在It is/has been...since...结构中，主句常用现在完成时，也可用一般现在时。但since引导的从句要用一般过去时。
How long is it since we visited your mother
自从我们看望你母亲以来到现在有多长时间了？
【温馨提示】 这一用法只能用于有延续意义的动词，而come，go，leave，arrive，reach，return，borrow，lend，buy，receive，begin，start，die，marry，join等短暂性动词则不能这样用。
二、比较：现在完成时与一般过去时的区别
1．现在完成时强调过去的动作对现在造成的影响；一般过去时强调过去某时发生的动作或单纯叙述过去的事情。
He has been a teacher for thirty years.
他已当了三十年的老师。(强调现在仍是老师)
He was a teacher when he was young.
他年轻的时候是个老师。(强调现在已不再是老师)
2．现在完成时通常与以下时间状语连用，如for，since，so far，ever，never，just，yet，till/until，up to now，always；而一般过去时常与具体的时间状语连用，如yesterday，last week，...ago，in 1980，in October，just now.
He has lived here since 1990.
自从1990年以来，他一直住在这里。(从过去某时开始住，到目前仍住着)
He turned off the light.
他把灯关掉了。(灯在过去某个时候被关掉)

Garho：Two years ago.Before that，I (2.____________was/have been)in a jazz group.
Elena：(3.____________Did you learn/Have you learned) to play the guitar when you were very young

答案：1.did you join 2.was 3.Did you learn 4.have taken 5.have you played 6.played 7.have you played8.played
Ⅱ.单项填空
1．Progress ________ so far very good and we are sure that the work will be finished on time.
A．was B．had been
C．has been D．will be
解析：选C。由时间状语so far可知本句应用现在完成时。
2．Danny ________ hard for long to realize his dream and now he is popular.
A．works B．is working
C．has worked D．worked
解析：选C。由后半句now he is popular得知本结果是由过去开始的一个动作对现在造成的影响，即现在完成时的含义，故答案选C。
3．I wonder why Jenny ________ to us recently.We should have heard from her by now.
A．hasn’t written B．doesn’t write
C．won’t write D．hadn’t written
解析：选A。此题考查动词的时态。后面句子是一个虚拟语气的句子，说到现在该收到她的来信了，事实上到现在还没有收到，就足以证明只能用现在完成时态了。
4．A lot of people ________ about the painting，and my father always says it’s not for sale.
A．ask B．asked
C．have asked D．had asked
解析：选C。由后一个分句中的谓语says可知，是说对现在的影响，故用现在完成时。
5．We ________ on our project day and night in the past two weeks.
A．had worked B．have worked
C．will be working D．are working
解析：选B。句意：在过去的两周里，我们夜以继日地做我们的项目。由时间状语in the past two weeks可知，本句应该用现在完成时。
6．By the time he realizes he ________ into a trap，it’ll be too late for him to do anything about it.
A．walks B．walked
C．has walked D．had walked
解析：选C。句意：等他意识到他已经钻进一个圈套时，再想要挽回已经太迟了。这里强调“已经钻进一个圈套”这样一个结果，所以需要用完成时态，因该空所在的从句为现在时态，故用现在完成时态。
7．Hello，you ________ 5678234.I’m sorry but I am unable to answer your questions right now.
A．reached B．are reaching
C．have reached D．had reached
解析：选C。reach在这里意思是“打电话”。用现在完成时表示对方已经拨通了电话号码5678234。
8．—Have you called 119
—As soon as I saw the smoke，I called the firemen，but they ________yet.
A．didn’t arrive B．hadn’t arrive
C．haven’t arrived D．wouldn’t arrive
解析：选C。根据题意可知，消防员到现在还没有来，故选C。
9．It’s the first time this term we ________an examination after class in the afternoon.
A．didn’t have B．aren’t having
C．don’t have D．haven’t had
解析：选D。It(This/That) is (was) the first/second...time that...是某人第几次做某事，在这个句子结构中that从句的谓语动词常用完成时，但It后是is时，that从句的谓语用现在完成时；是was时用过去完成时。
10．—Have you ever visited the opera house
—Yes.When I was in Sydney，I ________ it twice.
A．have visited B．visited
C．had visited D．would visit
解析：选B。句意：——你曾经参观过歌剧院吗？——是的。我在悉尼的时候参观过两次。根据语意可知，“参观歌剧院”这一行为发生在过去，即“When I was in Sydney”，故用一般过去时。

介绍某一地区：
介绍某一地区就是对该地区的大致状况进行描述，向人们展示该地区的地貌特征、风土人情、历史文化等。写此类文章应注意以下几点：
1．内容一般应包括该地区的位置、面积、人口、历史、气候、特产等。但是一定要抓住该地区的主要特色，这样才能给读者留下深刻的印象。
2．要遵循一定的写作顺序。描述该地区的位置时，首先要找好中心点，再由近及远，也可以先总体后局部，或按照一定的时间顺序或空间层次来写。描述时可以适当使用过渡性连接词。

Though our life is bothered by them，the traffic is bad and parking is difficult，tourists are not nuisances.Because they bring a good many manual occupations to the local people，thus increasing the employment.I feel fortunate living here.A lot of high rise buildings have been put up up to now along the seaside.
我的家乡在青岛，一个相当美丽宜人的海滨城市，也是一个港口。每年，当五一尤其是暑假临近时，大批的想摆脱炎热的游客就来这里游览迷人的风景和建筑，尤其是吸引人的海洋。
尽管我们的生活被他们打扰了，如交通变得很不流畅，而且停车也很困难，但游客们并不令人讨厌。因为他们给当地人带来了许多的手工工作，因此增加了就业。住在这里我感到很幸运。到目前为止，已经在沿海建起许多高楼大厦。然而房价很高，一些人买不起一套房子。他们只好租公寓住，虽然租金也有点高。有些人选择在郊区买房子。因为经济危机，更多的人下岗了。
到目前为止已经成立了几个委员会以帮助这些失业人员生活得好一些。在青岛，你可以去参观青岛海洋极地世界、博物馆或艺术画廊。如果你饿了，你可以享受美味的海鲜。我是一个导游，如果你想来青岛旅游，请跟我联系。 我保证你能玩得开心，并且有很多有趣的经历跟你的家人交流分享。
