第三十七课 Lesson Thirty-seven
一、教学内容
1.词汇(略)。
2.句型: I would like to see him as soon as possible.
3.语法:初步学习宾语从句的用法。
4.日常交际用语:[有关打电话用语] 1) Could I speak to… please? 2)Hold on for a moment, please. 3) I'm sorry he isn't here right now. 4) I'll leave a message on his desk.
二、教具
录音机;玩具电话。
三、课堂教学设计
1.复习 值日生报告。
2.利用玩具电话复习过去学习的有关打电话用语。具体做法如下:
将全班分为两部分,一部分打进电话,另一部分接电话。教师提供一个情景:
A请B去参加生日聚会。时间:明天下午4:00.
每部分推举一个代表(其他人可以补充)表演对话。表演结束后,教师板书有关打电话用语,同时介绍几句本课出现的新内容。
3.准备听课文第 1部分录音。教师布置听前提问(Pre-listening questions):1) Who does Mr Green want to speak to? 2) At what time can he come tomorrow?
放录音两遍,请同学回答问题。
4.打开书,再听录音,学生跟读一遍。
合上书。请学生试写Telephone Message.教师应提供必要的格式。如果学生有困难,可把课文相关部分的录音再听两遍。
5.请一位同学扮演Mr Green.以第一人称形式表演Mr Green电话中表示要做的事情。例如:
S: I want to speak to the headmaster.
y:(面向全班) What does Mr Green say?
引导大家回答: He says he wants to speak to the headmaster.
利用其他句子重复上述步骤。
再请一位女同学扮演接电话的女教师:
S2: I'll leave a message on the headmaster's desk.
T: (面向全班) What does she say?
Ss: She says she'll leave a message on the headmaster's desk.
板书上述句型。扼要解释宾语从句的构成。
6.学生打开书,练习朗读课文第2部分。
7.指导学生做练习册习题。
8.布置作业
1)抄写生词,练习朗读本课对话;2)书面完成练习册习题。
四、难点讲解
1.I would like to see him as soon as possible.我想能尽快地见到他。
短语 as soon as possible是“尽快”的意思。再如:Please return the book as soon as possible so that other students can borrow it.请尽快归还这本书,以便别的学生来借。
2.Are you able to come tomorrow?你明天能来吗?
be able to表示“能,能够”,在这一点上,与情态动词can意义相近。例如: No one can do It.=No one is able to do it.没有人能干得了这件事。
一般来说,情态动词can只可表示现在,有时表示将来;表示过去时用could.而be able to则有更多的时态变化。例如:Can you come tomorrow? =Are you able to come tomorrow?你明天能来吗?
这句话也可以说成: Will you be able to come tomorrow?
The blind men couldn't see the elephant with their eyes. = The blind men were not able to see the elephant with their eyes.盲人无法用他们的眼睛看见大象。
但如果要使用其他的时态,则只能用 be able to的变化形式。例如:
She has not been able to come to school for a week.她这一个星期都没能来上学。
I'm sorry I haven't been able to answer your letter.对不起我一直没能给你回信。
在谈到过去的能力,特别是指在过去某个场合中使用了这种能力时,要用was able to(或were able to)而不用 could.例如: There was a big fire but everybody was able to run away.有一场大火,但所有人都逃了出去。
