Module 11 The weather
课型：前置语法课
课前朗读
朗读上模块学过的单词、对话、课文等或预习的新单词等
I. 情境导入
出示一些描述天气的图片（遮掩一部分），让学生根据看到的图片部分猜测天气，并且进一步猜测在这样的天气里，人们可能干的事情。提示句型：
It may be...
It might be...
It probably be...
The people may...
The people might....
The people probably...
It is possible...
II．精讲规则
表示“将来某事可能发生”或“某人可能做某事”时常用以下方式表示
情态动词may/might表示可能
might是may的过去式，但表示可能性时没有很大区别，只是表示一般将来的可能性时，might比may的可能性要小。might和may都是情态动词，后应加动词原形，即might/may + do sth。
例如：
There may be a few showers, so bring an umbrella with you.
可能会有阵雨，随身带上伞吧。
Bring your swimsuit because you might want to swim in the sea.
带上游泳衣，说不定你要到海里游泳呢。
2. 除使用情态动词may/might表示可能以外，表示可能的形容词和副词常见的有：possible/possibly/probably等，常用于下列句型：
It is possible that....
It is possible to do sth.
主语+ will probably/possibly + do sth.
例如：
It's possible that he will not accept the invitation.
他有可能不接受邀请。
It’ll probably be cold and wet. 也许天气又冷又湿。
He will probably refuse the offer. 他很可能会拒绝这一提议。
注意：
probably意为“大概，很可能”，所表示的可能性虽不是完全肯定，但实现的可能性大, 多与动词连用；possibly意为“可能地，也许，或许”，较probably意味弱，在肯定句中表可能性很小，在否定、疑问句中与can，could连用，表示“无沦如何也不”，肯定句中与can，could连用，以加强语气，表示“设法，竭力地”。
