Unit 3 traditional skills（1）【课文】Wang Damin is a fisherman. Although he is over 65, he is very fit and still enjoys working.Damin uses cormorants to catch fish. Cormorants are large black birds. They are good at catching fish because they can swim well. They can dive down and stay under the water for up to two minutes.Damin usually sets off in the late afternoon and gets the cormorants ready for work. First, he ties a piece of grass around their necks to stop them from eating big fish. Then when Damin’s boat reaches the right pl ace in the river, he pushed them into the river. Damin uses several ways to attract fish. During the day, he jumps up and down on his boat. After dark, he hangs a light on a post at the front of the boat. The cormorants bring the fish back to the boat. The fish are then taken and thrown into a big basket by Damin. No nets are required for this type of fishing.Cormorant fishing was once practiced in lots of places in South-East China, and there were many fishermen in the area. But today, few young people are interested in it. In 50 years, perhaps there will be no more cormorant fishermen in the world.传统技能用鸟捕鱼王大民是一个渔民。
尽管他超过65岁了，但是他很健壮并且仍旧喜欢工作。
大民用鸬鹚抓鱼。
鸬鹚是黑色的大鸟。
它们擅长抓鱼，因为它们水性很好。
它们能下潜并在水下停留达两分钟。
大民通常在傍晚动身并让鸬鹚准备好工作。
首先，他在它们的脖子四周拴一片草，阻止它们吃掉大鱼。
然后，但大民的船到达河里适当的位置时，他把它们赶到河里。
大民用几种方式吸引鱼。
在白天，他在船上跳上跳下。
天黑后，他在船前面的杆上挂一盏灯。
这些鸬鹚把鱼带回船上。
然和大民取下鱼，并把它们扔进一个大篓子里。
这种捕鱼（方式）不需要网。
曾经中国东南部很多地方从事鸬鹚捕鱼业，并且这个地区有很多渔民。
但是如今，很少有年轻人对它感兴趣。
50年以后，或许世界上将不再有鸬鹚渔民了。

Everybody knows that. Yet many people do not seem to know that memory works in the same way.When someone says that he has a good memory, he really means that he keeps his memory in practice by using it. When someone else says that his memory is poor, he really means that he does not give it enough chance to become strong.If a friend says that his arms and legs are weak, we know that it is his own fault (过错). But if he tells us that he has a poor memory, many of us think that his parents are to blame (受责备), and few of us know that it is just his own fault. Have you ever found that some people can’t read or write but usually they have better memories? This is because they cannot read or write them down in a little notebook. They have to remember days, names, songs and stories; so their memory is the whole time being exercised.So if you want to have a good memory, learn from the people: practice remembering.【】1、The main reason for one’s poor memory is that _________.A、his father or mother may have a poor memoryB、he does not use his arms or legs for some timeC、his memory is not often usedD、he can’t read or write【】2、If you do not use your arms or legs for some time, ______.A、you can’t use them any moreB、they will become strongerC、they become weak but they slowly become strong againD、they become weak and won’t become strong until you use them again【】3、Which of the following in NOT true?A、Don’t learn how to read and write if you want to have a better memory.B、Your memory, like your arms or legs, becomes weak if you don’t give it enough chance for practice.C、Your memory works in the same way as your arms or legs.D、A good memory comes from more practice.【】4、Some people can’t read or write, but they usually have better memories, because .A、they have saved much troubleB、they have saved much time to remember thingsC、they have to use their memories all the timeD、they can’t write everything in a little notebook【】5、The best title for this passage _________.A、Don’t Stop Using Your Arms Or LegsB、How To Have A Good MemoryC、Strong Arms And Good MemoryD、Learn From The PeopleUnit 3-2被动语态结构：be + 及物动词的过去分词（+ by）be +not+及物动词的过去分词（+by）(否定)1. be 有人称、数和时态的变化一、被动语态的构成形式1. 被动语态的基本时态变化被动语态通常为十种时态的被动形式, 被动语态由be＋过去分词构成，be随时态的变化而变化。

新沪教版英语初二下册Units 3知识讲解1
沪教版初中英语二年级上册精编试题及知识点汇总学生姓名：班级：学号：Unit 3 Traditional skills词句精讲精练词汇精讲1. althoughalthough的意思相当于though，意为“尽管，虽然”，用来引导让步状语从句。
它所引导的从句不能与并列连词but; and; so等连用，但可以和yet; still等词连用。
例如：Although he lives alone, he doesn’t feel lonely.= He lives alone, but he doesn’t feel lonely.虽然他一个人住，但他并不感到孤独。
There is air all around us, although we cannot see it.虽然我们看不见空气，但空气却存在于我们的周围。
【拓展】although与though的辨析：(1) 用作连词，表示“虽然”，二者可以互换使用，但although比though更为正式。
例如：Though/Although it was raining, we still went there. 虽然下着雨，但我们还是去了那里。
(2) although一般不用作副词，而though可用作副词，且一般放在句末（不放在句首），意为“可是，不过”。
例如：It’s hard work; I enjoy it, though. 工作很辛苦，可是我很喜欢。
We all tried our best. We lost the game, though. 我们都尽力最大努力，但我们还是输了。
(3) 在as though(好像，仿佛)，even though(即使，纵然)等固定短语中不能用although。
例如：He talks as though he knew everything. 他夸夸其谈，好像无所不知。
2. up toup to意为“到达（某数量、程度等）”；至多有。

Indonesian fishermen hung fishhooks on kites and sent them out to sea to catch fish. Starting 2,000years ago, Chinese farmers flew kites to welcome the New Year and bring good luck to Earth.In China, people also used kites during wartime. One Chinese story tells how soldiers put noise makers on kites and flew them at night over the enemy camp. The enemies were frightened by the noise and ran away.About 1,300 years ago, Chinese travelers took kites to Japan. Soon kites filled the skies there. Kites reached Thailand about 700 years ago. During floods, Thai farmers flew kites over their fields They hoped the kites woulddrive away the clouds and stop the rain. Over time, kites flew their way out of Asia.
