Corn
is
among
the
most
widely
consumed
grains
on
the
planet.
On
a
global
scale,
the
average
human
will
consume
70
pounds
of
corn
each
and
every
year!
That's
a
whole
lot
of
corn
that
needs
to
be
grown
each
year,
and
that's
not
even
accounting
for
corn
being
grown
for
animal
consumption
and
biofuel.
Just
like
many
other
popular
foods,
farmers
are
finding
it
difficult
to
keep
up
with
all
that
demand.
Of
course,
complicating
matters
is
the
fact
that
corn
is
a
tropical
plant,
meaning
it
is
very
sensitive
to
cold
weather
and
thus
farmers
are
unable
to
produce
it
during
the
colder
months
of
the
year
in
more
temperate
climates.
Now,
researchers
from
Cornell
University's
Boyce
Thompson
Institute
have
developed
their
own
solution:
a
new
variation
of
corn
that
recovers
much
more
quickly
after
being
exposed
to
cold
temperatures.
If
this
new
variation
of
corn
proves
to
be
viable,
it
could
revolutionize
and
increase
global
production,
allowing
more
areas
to
grow
corn,
and
farmers
to
produce
greater
quantities.
“In
the
field,
chilling
stress
happens
most
often
in
the
spring
when
cold
temperatures
combine
with
strong
sunlight,
causing
plants
to
bleach，”comments
lead
researcher
David
Stern,
president
of
the
Boyce
Thompson
Institute,
in
a
release.“So
a
more
chilling?tolerant
corn
could
help
farmers
plant
earlier
in
the
year
with
confidence
that
their
crop
would
survive
a
cold
spell
and
bounce
back
quickly
once
the
weather
warmed
up
again.”

过去完成时
一、过去完成时的构成
过去完成时由“had＋过去分词”构成。
二、过去完成时的用法
1．过去某一时刻或动作之前已完成的动作或存在的状态。可以用by，before等介词短语或一个时间状语从句来表示，也可以用一个表示过去的动作来表示，还可通过上下文来表示。
When
the
explorer
hurried
to
the
destination，the
others
had
already
left.
当这名探险者匆忙赶到目的地的时候，其他人已经离开了。
By
nine
o'clock
last
night，we
had
gotten
200
pictures
from
the
spaceship.
到昨晚9点钟，我们已经收到飞船发来的200张图片。
2．表示由过去的某一时刻开始，一直延续到过去另一时间的动作或状态，常和for，since构成的时间状语连用。
He
told
us
that
he
had
done
the
scientific
research
for
5
years.
他告诉我们他做科学研究已经5年了。
3．动词think，want，hope，mean，plan，intend等用过去完成时来表示过去未曾实现的想法、希望、打算或意图等。
I
had
never
thought
that
you
were
content
to
help
me.
我从未想过你愿意帮我。
We
had
hoped
to
be
able
to
come
and
see
you.
我们本来希望能来看看你。
4．过去完成时常常用在told，said，knew，heard，thought等动词后的宾语从句
(或间接引语)中，这时从句中的动作发生在主句表示的过去的动作之前。
He
said
that
he
had
been
abroad
for
3
years.
他说他在国外待了三年了。
5．在状语从句中，在过去不同时间发生的两个动作中，发生在前，用过去完成时；发生在后，用一般过去时。常由when，before，after，as
soon
as，till/until引导。
When
I
woke
up，it
had
already
stopped
raining.
我醒来时，雨已停了。
[名师点津]
before，after引导的时间状语从句中，由于before和after本身已表达了动作的先后关系，若主、从句表示的动作紧密相连，则主、从句多用一般过去时。
After
he
arrived
in
England，he
worked
hard
to
improve
his
English.
他到达英格兰之后，努力提高他的英语水平。
6．过去完成时的常用固定句型
(1)主语＋had
hardly/scarcely/no
sooner＋过去分词＋when/than从句
(从句用一般过去时)；当hardly，scarcely，no
sooner表示否定意义的词位于句首时，主句要倒装。
I
had
no
sooner
reached
home
than
it
began
to
rain.
＝No
sooner
had
I
reached
home
than
it
began
to
rain.
我刚到家就下雨了。
(2)It
was＋一段时间＋since从句
(从句用过去完成时)
It
was
at
least
three
months
since
I
had
left
Beijing.
我离开北京至少有3个月了。
(3)It
was
the
first/second/...time＋
(that)从句
(从句用过去完成时)
It
was
the
first
time
that
I
had
chatted
online
in
English.
那是我第一次用英语在网上聊天。
(4)主句
(过去完成时)＋by
the
time...
(一般过去时)
We
had
got
everything
ready
by
the
time
they
arrived.
在他们到达之前，我们已经做好一切准备了。
(5)句子
(过去完成时)＋by
the
end
of...
(表示过去的时间)
By
the
end
of
last
term，we
had
learned
English
at
least
for
four
years.
到上个学期末，我们至少已经学了四年英语。
7．过去完成时与一般过去时的区别
(1)一般过去时表示在过去的时间里发生的动作或存在的状态，而过去完成时表示在过去某一时刻或某个动作之前已经完成的动作，即“过去的过去”，当强调过去某一动作发生在另一动作之前时，常用过去完成时态。
They
had
arrived
at
the
railway
station
by
ten
o'clock
yesterday.
昨天10点之前，他们已经到了火车站。
They
arrived
at
the
railway
station
at
ten
o'clock
yesterday.
他们昨天10点到了火车站。
(2)一般过去时与过去完成时都可以和确定的表示过去的时间状语连用，但侧重点有所不同。
We
had
learned
two
English
songs
by
the
end
of
last
week.
到上个星期为止，我们已经学了两首英文歌曲。

第四课时 Writing——如何写观察日记
假定你随一个中学生代表团去英国访问，期间你们参观了英国伦敦郊区的一个名叫Camden
Town的小镇，请你把参观过程写成一篇日记。内容包括：
1．到达小镇的时间；
2．你对小镇的印象；
3．小镇的建筑物；
4．你们第二天的计划。
注意：
1．词数80左右；
2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。
________________________________________________________

________________________________________________________
【分析】
日记是用来记述自己一天生活中所发生的有意义的事情或用来抒发自己当天对某些事情的感受以及自己将来的打算。其素材应是最有趣或最有感受的一些事情，体裁可以是记叙文、应用文、说明文、议论文等各种形式，也可以把以上文体结合起来使用。一般篇幅不宜过长。
写英文日记时应注意以下三点：
1．注意格式。
(1)日期、星期一般顶格写在正文之前。可以先写星期，后写年月日，也可以先写年月日，后写星期几。
(2)天气情况应写在日期和星期的同一行稍靠右之处。表示天气情况常用fine,
cloudy,
rainy,
snowy,
windy,
stormy等形容词来表示。
(3)正文。正文的内容应该思想健康，积极向上。文章可长可短，开头语应简洁，结尾可适当发表感想。
2．注意人称选择。
由于日记的内容多是记叙自己的亲身经历或抒发自己的感想，所以多用第一人称I或we。
3．确定正确的时态。
日记一般写当天发生的事情，因此通常使用一般过去时。当然，即使发生在过去的事情，为了描写生动，也可以使用现在时，以表现当时的情况。发表感想或议论时则可用现在时或将来时。

Yesterday
some
of
my
classmates
and
I
spent
the
weekend
at
the
seaside.
It_was_sunny_and_a_little_hot,_but_the_water_was_too_cool_to_swim_in._The_sea_was_blue_and_calm._It_shone_merrily_under_the_bright_sun._There_were_boats_floating_here_and_there._People_in_them_laughed_and_sang_happily.
We_took_off_our_shoes_and_went_into_the_cool_water._We_walked_along_the_beach_in_the_water.Some_girls_looked_for_shells_on_the_shore._Then_we_lay_down_and_sunbathed_or_played_games_until_it_was_time_to_go_home.
We_all_enjoyed_a_pleasant_time_at_the_seaside.
