As the day went on, the weather got worse.日子一天天过去,天气越变越坏。

2) when 可表示瞬间、时间段,主从句动作同时发生,也可以先后发生。

当从句的动作发生于主句动作之前,只能用when 引导这个从句,不可用as 或while。

When you have finished your work, you may have a rest.3) as, when 引导短暂性动作的动词。

Just as / Just when / When I stopped my car, a man came up to me.4) while 用于同时进行的两个延续性动作相伴发生,常对同类动作进行对比。

swimming by the boat 在句中作宾语补足语,与宾语Old Tom 存在逻辑上的主谓头系。

I saw Jack crossing the street.我看见杰克正在穿过街道。

7. A few minutes later, there was no Tom, so George started beating the water with his oar and there was Tom, circling back to the boat, leading us to the hunt again.circling back to the boat; leading us to the hunt again是现在分词短语作状语。

Then the harpoon was ready and the man in the boat aimed it at the whale. He let it go and the harpoon hit the spot. Being badly wounded, the whale soon died. 辨析:wound, injury, hurt, harm与damagewound 是战斗中刀枪的创伤、伤口His brother was wounded in that battle .injury是平时的大小创伤和伤害He got serious injuries to the legs at work .He got his finger injured .hurt 是指精神上的伤害和肉体的伤痛。

The bus was badly damaged when it hit the wall .This storm did great harm / damage to the crops .10. … it was difficult to handle the boat.……划船很困难。

这是一个it作形式主语的句子,真正的主语是不定式to handle the boat。

在以不定式、动名词从句作主语的句子里,通常以it作形式主语,而把真正的主语后置以避免头重脚轻。

这样的句式通常有:to + v.It(形式主语)+v.+ that(主语)+ v.wh- 等词(主语)+ v.forIt is + adj.+ sb. to do sth.ofseems (好像……)It + appears(看上去……)+ that(主语)+v.happens(碰巧……)It is no use v. –ing 做……没有用It is said (reported) that …据说,据报道……It is believed that …人们相信……It is thought that …人们认为……It has been proved that …事实证明……It is well-known that …众所周知……11. It took over half an hour to get the boat back to James.用了半个多小时的时间才把船划回到詹姆斯身边。

U n i t3U n d e r t h e s e a1. 教材分析本单元以大自然中的海底世界为话题, 以谈论海底世界的动植物为切入点,让学生在交流中发现和了解大自然的奇妙和美丽;通过阅读奇闻故事,使学生从一个侧面了解人类与动物的关系;一篇与海底动植物相处的感受的日记,把学生带入人与自然和谐相处的美好境界。

本单元用梯次递进的方式让学生运用已有的自然知识、亲身体验、所掌握的语言知识和技能,在阅读、听新闻和专家评述、讨论、写故事、编剧本、排练演出等多项语言功能运用的过程中,深入学习、了解海洋动植物和大自然,并学习用英语表达对它们的感受、关切和热爱,从而在学习和运用语言的同时,强化对海洋生物和大自然的保护意识。

本单元实现了语言学习和传播先进思想的完美统一。

1.1 Warming Up设计了两个活动。

第一个活动用两个提问直接导入本单元的中心话题,也是学生最感兴趣的话题——海底动物和植物,要求学生以互相交流的方式更多地了解海底世界。

紧接着是小组活动,要求学生将已知的海洋动植物列表归纳,并谈论自己最喜爱的海洋动物或植物。

这一部分的设计为下一步的课文学习以及后边的听、说、读、写在内容方面打下了伏笔。

1.2 Pre-reading是Reading文图并茂的内容简介。

高中英语 Unit 3 Under the sea教案 新人教版选修7

Unit 3 Under the sea【美文阅读】广袤无垠的海洋,孕育了无数生命传奇,以其独有的神秘吸引着人类对其进行不懈的探索。

为此,海洋科学家通常把海洋分为五个区域。

现在就让我们一起了解一下吧!The earth's oceans can reach depths of up to 11,000 metres.That is deep enough to cover Mt.Qomolangma!The oceans are incredibly(不可思议的)large and contain several different habitats.To make it easier to describe the various parts of the oceans,marine(海上的)scientists usually divide the oceans into five zones.Each zone is different mainly as a result of how much sunlight reaches it.Most of the life in the ocean can be found in the first zone,which begins at the surface and goes down about 200 metres.Because there is sunlight at this level,plants are able to grow.Marine animals such as dolphins,sharks,sea turtles and sea lions,and of course a variety of fish,live in the sunlit(阳光普照的)part of the ocean.It is difficult to hide from other animals in this area.The second zone starts at 200 metres and goes down to about 1,000 metres.Some sunlight can reach this level,but it is not enough for plants to grow.Because this zone is relatively dark,many of the creatures that live here are able to make light with their body.The light from these animals makes the water look like a sky with moving stars in it.The third zone of the ocean is dark.This place,about 3,000 metres deep,may not seem a likely habitat,but there are more creatures here than one might think.Most of the animals that live here are black or red because of the lack of light.Below 4,000 metres,the temperature is near freezing and there is no light at all.In fact,the zone is so dark and empty that scientists named this zone after the Greek word for “no bottom”.There is not much life to be found in this cold and unpleasant part of the ocean,but some small creatures still manage to survive here despite the high water pressure.The very deepest part of the ocean is found 2,000 metres further down.At this depth,the water pressure is extremely high and life is very difficult for the few creatures that live pared to the other zones,this one has very little life.Since there is no light here,some of the animals do not have eyes.Next time you look at the ocean from the beach or on a map,remember that what you are seeing is only the surface-only the beginning of the large and varied adventure.【诱思导学】1.Why do these animals living in the second zone make the water look like a sky with moving stars in it?________________________________________________________________________ 2.Do you think it is possible for some creatures that live in the very deepest part of the ocean to see each other?________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】 1.Because many of them are able to make light with their body.2.No.Because there is no light here and some of the animals have no eyes.Period ⅠPreviewing(教师用书独具)●教学目标初步掌握本课文中的词汇,浅层次理解课文,了解相关的背景知识。
