Unit 4 Sharing
教材分析和教材重組
教材分析
本單元的重點話題是幫助弱者、志愿服務(wù)、合作共享等。通過聽、說、讀、寫等活動不僅學(xué)習(xí)有關(guān)的語言知識，還要培養(yǎng)學(xué)生的社會責(zé)任感。
1. Warming Up部分是一個調(diào)查。該活動分三步進(jìn)行：首先回顧自己曾經(jīng)做過的助人為樂的好事，并采訪三位同學(xué)；然后，根據(jù)調(diào)查內(nèi)容列舉班上同學(xué)所做的好事；最后討論volunteer一詞的內(nèi)涵。該部分的討論可以和中學(xué)生參與的“志愿者活動”、“手拉手活動”、“獻(xiàn)愛心活動”等聯(lián)系起來。
2. Pre-reading部分交代了閱讀文章的文體(1etter)和作者(a young Australian woman，Jo)。閱讀中提供了十幅圖片，閱覽這些圖片有助于學(xué)生理解這封書信的內(nèi)容，因此，“讀前”部分針對閱讀中的圖片設(shè)計了五個問題，回答這些問題有助于學(xué)生加深理解，“志愿者活動”的意義。
3. Reading部分是一封家書。作者志愿在巴布亞新幾內(nèi)亞(Papua New Guinea)的一個小山村教書。在她寫給Rosemary的信中，作者描述了該村學(xué)校的情況和去一學(xué)生家做客的經(jīng)歷。
4. Comprehending部分設(shè)置了兩組問題。第一個練習(xí)為小組討論題，這些問題首先要求學(xué)生讀懂書信內(nèi)容，用表格的形式幫助學(xué)生整理書信中提到的信息，然后要求學(xué)生聯(lián)系自己的實際，比較校舍、教學(xué)條件、生活狀況等，并引發(fā)學(xué)生思考，談?wù)勈欠裨敢鈪⒓又驹刚呋顒�。第二個練習(xí)要求學(xué)生對文中提到的五個現(xiàn)象進(jìn)行分析，說明其原因。第三個練習(xí)要學(xué)生通過閱讀分析小山村中的積極和消極面。這些均屬深層思考題。
5. Learning about Language部分引導(dǎo)學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)詞匯和語法。詞匯部分設(shè)置了兩個練習(xí)，一是根據(jù)所給解釋從課文中選擇詞匯；二是用課文中的詞匯完成一篇短文。語法部分復(fù)習(xí)定語從句，也設(shè)置了兩個練習(xí)，一是用定語從句完成句子，二是用含定語從句的句子回答問題。
6. Using Language部分由閱讀與討論、聽與說和寫三個部分組成，綜合訓(xùn)練聽說讀寫的能力。
教材重組
1. 將Warming Up，Pre-reading，Reading與Comprehending整合在一起上一節(jié)“閱讀課”。
2. 將Learning about Language和Workbook的using words and expressions及using structures整合在一起上一節(jié)“語言學(xué)習(xí)課”。
3. 將Using Language設(shè)計為一節(jié)包括聽說讀寫在內(nèi)的“綜合技能課（一）”。
4. 將Workbook的READING AND LISTENING和TALKING結(jié)合在一起上一節(jié)“聽說課”。
5. 將Workbook的LISTENING TASK，READING AND WRITING TASK和SPEAKING TASK設(shè)計為一節(jié)“綜合技能課（二）”。

V. Writing a letter of your own.
Now you are to write a similar letter based on the topic, the words and the structures of the letter on page 29.
A Letter to my teacher
Dear Ms Xu Fang,
Thanks for your letter. It was wonderful to hear from you. I know you’re dying to hear all about my life here in the United States. I’ve included some photos that will help you picture the life I talk about.
You asked about my university. Well, it’s a nice one – the classrooms are big and clean and the computers are available to everyone. It takes me only a few minutes to drive to my university. When I reach the university campus there are lots of “Nihaos” for me from my schoolmates, many of whom have lived in China.
There’s enough electricity and water and we have lots of books to read and read. I have already adapted to the conditions here. And one thing is for sure. I’ve become a lot more independent in my studies. English is my most challenging subject as there is no Chinese in the classroom and if I need help I have to ask for it in English! The other day I was attending my chemistry lesson a professor with Russian accent came to me – before I knew it, asking why I got the test tubes upside down! I had never come across any strange-sounding teachers like this and started getting more and more nervous. Sometimes I wonder how understandable my English is to the teachers and native classmates, most of whom speak so fast to me and to each other. In fact, I wonder whether I’m making any progress in my English.
You asked whether I am getting to know any local people. Well, that’s actually quite difficult, as I don’t speak much local English yet. But last weekend another foreign student, Halanin, and I did made friends with a native schoolmate who is the chairperson of the Helping Club. He is Rubby, by name. It was my first friendship with a native schoolmate. We talked for two and a half hours about lives in China and America. When we departed at the supper time, Rubby, who had been learning Chinese in his spare time, started shouting “Huijian”. We shook hands with him. Everyone seemed to be happy and excited.

VI. Closing down by reading more on voluntary work
My Experience as a Volunteer Teacher
Author: Susansun
"Susan, I'll miss you, don't forget me," a girl wrote to me on the first page of a notebook. The notebook was a collection of the lyrics of her favorite songs. It was a present given by one of my students when I attended the 'Go-to-the-countryside' program last summer holiday. Every time I open the notebook, it brings back fond memories.
Last summer vacation, for the purpose of serving society and meeting other social communities, nine of my classmates, including me, formed a group as a service team heading for GaoTan Middle School, which is in the remote mountain area of Guangdong Province.
We spent one week there, mainly teaching the students English, as planned. We had known ahead of time that their English was inferior to their counterparts' in the city. And what was worse, they didn't like learning English. So we came up with a logo and carefully chose four topics for our students. The logo was: I'm not shy, I can speak English loudly." The four topics were: my dream, my family, my hometown and what a wonderful world. We intended to inspire their interest of learning English and help them build the confidence of speaking English out loudly. We exerted ourselves to create a very active and relaxed atmosphere while teaching. In addition, the topics were suitable for us to communicate with them and build up a good relationship.
At the beginning of each class, our students were asked to shout out the logo. And it was clear that they were very happy to shout in English. The content of our lessons was closely related to the four topics. We also covered moral education while teaching. In class, we showed great happiness for any progress made, such as a correct pronunciation, a right spelling, a brave answer, etc.
Although the time we spent together was short, we and our students became good friends. When we had to leave them, they gave us lots of little gifts expressing their appreciation of our teaching. The lyrics notebook was the one I liked best.
The 'Go-to-the-countryside' program has been very hot among university students in recent years. Our team was just one in hundreds of teams across the country, and I myself am just one in thousands of volunteer teachers. There is a standard of judging teachers: the mediocre teacher tells, the good teacher explains, the superior teacher demonstrates, the great teacher inspires. I am wondering what category of teachers I belong to. Maybe my future students will have the answer to that question.

限定性定語從句
一、限定性定語從句中關(guān)系代詞的用法
1．who , whom, that
三者都可修飾人，who作主語,whom作賓語,that既可作主語又可作賓語.
（1）I don’t like people who lose their tempers easily.
我不喜歡愛發(fā)脾氣的人。
（2）Do you think one should stay faithful to the person (whom) one is married to?
你認(rèn)為一個人結(jié)婚后應(yīng)該忠實于他的伴侶嗎？
（3）The suona horn is the instrument that really excites me.
嗩吶是真正使我激動的樂器。
注意：a. 在口語中,who可以代替whom，作賓語，如例2還可用who/that來引導(dǎo)。b. 關(guān)系代詞在定語從句中作賓語時，一 般可以省略，再如例2中的whom。
2. whose
一個表示所屬關(guān)系的關(guān)系詞�？梢孕揎椚�，也可修飾物。修飾人時，有時可與of whom換用；修飾物時,有時可與of which換用，whose在定語從句中作定語。
Is there anyone here whose name is Wang Lin? 這兒有個名叫王林的人嗎？
I saw some trees whose leaves were black with diseases.(=I saw some trees the leaves of which were black with diseases.) 我看見一些樹的葉子因病害而發(fā)黑。
3. that, which
二者都可修飾物，在定語從句中可作主語或賓語。
The film (which/that) we saw last night is wonderful. 昨天晚上我們看的那部電影太棒了。
that指物時，一般可和which換用，但在下列情況下,只用that
A. 先行詞為all, anything, everything, nothing, something等
I will do all (that) I can to help you.我將盡我所能來幫你。
B. 先行詞被序數(shù)詞、形容詞最高級或the only, the very等修飾時
It’s the best film that has ever been made on the subject of madness.
這是以精神病為題材而拍攝的影片中最好的一部。
These are the very books (that) I am looking for.這些書正是我要找的。
C. 先行詞既有人又有物時
They talked about the people and the things (that) they remembered in the school.
他們談到他們所記得的學(xué)校中的人和事。
D. 當(dāng)主句是who或which, what開始的疑問句時，定語從句用that引導(dǎo)。
Who is the boy that was here just now? 剛才在這兒的那個男孩是誰？
E. 當(dāng)that所代替的先行詞在定語從句中作表語時
This is not an easy question that you think it to be. 這個問題不是像你認(rèn)為的那么容易。
F. 定語從句中動詞為there be時，關(guān)系代詞用that或省略
She has read all the books (that) there are on the bookshelf. 她把書架上所有的書都讀完了。
另外，請注意只用的三種情況：
A. 如果句中有兩個定語從句，其中一個用了that，另一個最好用which來引導(dǎo)。
Let me show you the novel that I borrow from the library which was newly open to us. 讓我給你看看我從新開放的圖書館借來的小說吧。
B. 前面緊接著有介詞時
This is the book about which we are talking now.這就是我們正在談?wù)摰哪潜緯?/p>
C. 非限定性定語從句中不用that(例句請見本章V)
4. whom, which
若被修飾的詞充當(dāng)從句介詞賓語時，介詞可提前到引導(dǎo)詞之前。此時的引導(dǎo)詞只有用whom或which.
Who is the boy with whom you were talking a moment ago?
你剛才和他談話的那個男孩是誰？
The book from which I got a lot of useful information was written by a famous scientist.
我從中得到許多有用信息的那本書是一位著名科學(xué)家寫的。
5. as
引導(dǎo)限定性定語從句時，常用在so, such或the same之后。
Such people as you describe are rare nowadays.像你描述的這種人現(xiàn)在少多了。
I have the same trouble as you. 我的麻煩和你的一樣。
Here is so heavy a stone as no man can lift. 這兒有一塊無人能搬起的石頭。
(試比較：Here is so heavy a stone that no man can lift it. that引導(dǎo)的為結(jié)果狀語從句)
二、限定性定語從句中關(guān)系副詞的用法：
1. when
表示時間。在定語從句中作時間狀語，其先行詞一般是表示時間的名詞。
I still remember the day when (on which) I joined the league.
我對我入團(tuán)的那一天記憶猶新。
注意：有時雖然先行詞是表示時間的名詞，但定語從句中缺少的是主語或賓語，此時應(yīng)用關(guān)系代詞。如：
I still remember the day (which/that) we spent together. 我依然記得我們共同度過的那一天。
2. where
表示地點。在定語從句中作地點狀語，其先行詞一般為表示地點的名詞。
Let’s think of a situation where (in which) this idiom can be used.
咱們來想一個使用這個成語的情境。
注意：where同when一樣，在從句中只能充當(dāng)狀語。如果不是狀語，就得換用其他的引導(dǎo)詞。試比較：
This is the place where we worked last year. 這是我們?nèi)ツ旯ぷ鬟^的那個地方。
This is the place (which/that) we visited last year. 這是我們?nèi)ツ陞⒂^過的那個地方。
3. why
表示原因。在定語從句中作原因狀語，其先行詞一般為reason.
The reason why he is late is that he failed to catch the first bus.
他遲到的原因是他沒能趕上第一班公共汽車。
試比較：The reason (that/which) he gave us for changing the plan was groundless.
他給我們的改變計劃的原因是站不住腳的。
所以，判斷是用關(guān)系代詞或是用關(guān)系副詞，主要看先行詞在從句中的指代作用，即語法成分。
三、限定性定語從句中應(yīng)注意的幾個問題
A. 當(dāng)先行詞為way時，其后的定語從句可用in which, that或不用關(guān)系詞。
I don’t like the way (不填/in which/that) he talks to me. 我不喜歡他那樣跟我講話。
B. 關(guān)系代詞在定語從句中做主語時，其人稱和數(shù)要與先行詞保持一致。
He is one of the Canadian scientists who are working in China.他是在中國工作的加拿大科學(xué)家之一。
He is the (only) one of the Canadian scientists who speaks Chinese well. 他是唯一一個說漢語好的加拿大科學(xué)家。
C. 在考查定語從句時，有時缺少先行詞，而不是關(guān)系代詞，要注意區(qū)別。
Is this the museum (that/which) you visited yesterday? 這是不是你昨天參觀的那個博物館。
Is this museum the one you visited yesterday? 這個博物館是不是你昨天參觀的那個？
D. 在以 “It + be”引導(dǎo)的句子中，注意區(qū)別強(qiáng)調(diào)句與帶有定語從句的復(fù)合句。試比較以下兩組句子：
a. It was at the theatre ____ Lincoln was murdered.
b. It was the theatre ____ Lincoln was murdered.
a. It was on Oct.1st 1949 ____the People’s Republic of China was founded.
b. It was Oct.1st 1949 ____the People’s Republic of China was founded.
以上句子中除a句中有介詞at或on外，其余部分完全相同。究竟哪個是強(qiáng)調(diào)句，哪個是含有定語從句的復(fù)合句呢？最簡單的判斷方法是去掉It was和連接詞（即橫線部分）。如果剩余部分仍然是一個完整的句子，則是強(qiáng)調(diào)句；否則，空格中所用的引導(dǎo)詞及其引導(dǎo)的部分就是定語從句.根據(jù)以上原則很容易判斷出兩組中a句是強(qiáng)調(diào)句. 應(yīng)填that,而b句則是帶定語從句的復(fù)合句.這兩個定語從句分別用關(guān)系副詞where和when來引導(dǎo)。

【答案及解析】
【高考鏈接】
1. C 此題首先分析句子結(jié)構(gòu)，按句意可知是將喝咖啡與不喝咖啡的女性作比較，所以
women和those 后各帶一定語從句。根據(jù)關(guān)系代詞在從句中作主語不能省略這一規(guī)則，不難判斷出選項C為正確答案。
2. D 此題考查介詞+關(guān)系代詞which 引導(dǎo)的定語從句，先行詞為direction，代入后面的定語從句為she had come from the direction。故D項正確。
3. D 此題將定語從句置于情景交際中進(jìn)行考查。先行詞point在從句中作insist on的賓語。關(guān)系詞只能是關(guān)系代詞。故排除其它三選項。另外關(guān)系代詞在從句中作賓語可略，故選D。
4. A whose在句中引導(dǎo)定語從句。先行詞“house”在從句中“roof”構(gòu)成所屬關(guān)系，即the house’s roof。故選關(guān)系代詞whose。
5. A 此題主要考查point的抽象概念，它既能表示時間，也能表示地點，后面可以接when引導(dǎo)的定語從句，也可以接where引導(dǎo)的定語從句，例如：We had reached the point when there was no money left. (我們曾落到身無分文的地步)Please underline the points where you don’t understand.（把你不懂的地方劃下來）。由上例可看出when 和where 與point連用，既能表示具體的時間和地點，也能表示抽象的時間和地點，但是它們的不同在于用where時，側(cè)重指“內(nèi)容”，所以此題選where 為最佳選項（側(cè)重于指雙方都能接受，并愿意坐下來談的條件）。
6. C 此句實際上考查的是定語從句的先行詞（關(guān)系代詞that的省略）。All (that)在定語從句中作do的賓語。如選D, That只起引導(dǎo)作用，不能作定語從句中的成分，且缺少先行詞。答案A與B不合題意。
7. A 因為where代替先行詞并在定語從句中作to lose control…的狀語。即“在一種難以駕馭飛機(jī)的情況下”where相當(dāng)于in which。
8. C 注意先行詞為hours,在定語從句中作狀語表時間.如果把主句寫作: The film brought back to me the hours就比較容易選擇了。
9. D 考查定語從句，先行詞an age在從句中做狀語。
10. C
11. D which引導(dǎo)定語從句，指代the road map。
12. A 先行詞her trousers在從句后與on一起作狀語，表地點，所以用關(guān)系副詞where。
13. C visited后面需要賓語。
14. B 本題考查定語從句和turn to sb.。
15. B 本題考查不定式作定語，“介詞+ which+不定式”結(jié)構(gòu)作定語修飾名詞shop，與shop相搭配的介詞為in。
【鞏固練習(xí)】
1. B 此題考查定語從句,先行詞為point,在此意為“（進(jìn)展、增進(jìn)的）階段；程度”，引導(dǎo)詞在從句中作地點狀語，所以用where引導(dǎo)。
2. C 此題考查定語從句，先行詞a rocky planet指地點，且引導(dǎo)詞在從句中作地點狀語。
3. B 此題考查定語從句，先行詞是the time，引導(dǎo)詞在從句中作時間狀語。
4. C 此題考查對“such…as…”和“such…that…”的運(yùn)用。在such…as…這一結(jié)構(gòu)中，as引導(dǎo)定語從句，as是關(guān)系代詞；而在such…that…這一結(jié)構(gòu)中，that引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句。
5. B 此題考查定語從句中關(guān)系代詞的使用。把先行詞some cases代入從句中，相當(dāng)于：…in these cases drivers obviously knew the traffic rules but…“in these cases”作抽象地點狀語，意為“在這些情況下”，故選where。
6. B 此題考查復(fù)合句的掌握。在時間狀語從句中，一般現(xiàn)在時代替一般將來時，而此句中的從句“the manager will be back from his trip”是一般將來時，依此推斷，從句不是時間狀語從句，排除A、D。顯然，此句為定語從句，代入先行詞one more week，在從句中作時間狀語，故選when。
7. A 考查定語從句。All（that）they can be = what they can be。
8. D 考查定語從句。先行詞moments表示時間，定語從句由關(guān)系副詞when引導(dǎo)，相當(dāng)于at which即at the moments。
9. A 先行詞websites表示地點，應(yīng)用關(guān)系副詞where引導(dǎo)定語從句，相當(dāng)于on which即on these popular websites.
10. D 11. D 12. A 13. A 14. B 15. B

1. The five C’s in letter writing
Clear: Try not to beat around the bush when letter writing. Every word should come across as something that is understood. The best way to test this is to read what you wrote out loud, in a tape recorder, and play it back to yourself.
Concise: Do not ramble. Try to make your words go straight to the point.
Courteous: Remember that words can come across a lot harsher on paper. It’s best to save arguing to verbal usage, so that you can clear up any misunderstandings.
Correct: Double check your spelling, grammar, and punctuation. There is nothing worse than trying to read a letter full of mistakes. It makes the clarity of the written word harder to decipher.
Complete: Make sure that when you bring up a topic, you do not change topics in mid-stream. Make sure that you finish what you have to say before you go on to another topic.
