He was not reading a book at 5:00 yesterday. Was he reading a book at 5:00 yesterday? (Yes, he was./ No, he wasn’t.) What was he doing at 5:00 yesterday? 【二】、过去进行时用法: (1)过去进行时主要表示过去某个时刻(时间点)正在进行的动作,常和过去的状语连用。 如:(just)then 那时,当时;at this/that time 在这/那时;at that moment=then在那时 at 3:00 yesterday afternoon在昨天下午三点;(at)this time yesterday在昨天这个时候 ①What were you doing at nine last night? 昨晚九点的时候,你在做什么? ②I was watching TV at home at 3:00 yesterday afternoon. 我昨天下午三点正在家里看电视。 ③They were playing football at this time yesterday.昨天这个时候他们在踢足球。 (2)过去进行时也可以表示过去某一段时间内(时间段)正在进行的动作。常与those days, the whole morning, from 8:00 to 12:00 last night,last night 等时间状语连用。 ①From 1983 to 1998 , he was teaching at Yale . 从1983到1998年,他正在耶鲁大学教书。 ②They were building a bridge last winter . 去年冬天他们正在造一座桥。 ③He was writing a book those days. 那几天他正在写一本书。 (3)根据情境或上下文需要使用过去进行时。 A: I saw you in the library yesterday morning. What were you doing there? B: I was reading a book on Diaoyu Island. (4)过去进行时常出现在含有when和while引导的时间状语从句的复合句中. eg. ①I was playing computer games when my father got home. = When my father got home, I was playing computer games. ② Mother was cooking while I was doing my homework. = While I was doing my homework, mother was cooking. when和while与过去进行时有着密切的关系,他们作从属连词时都有“当…….时候”之意,用法稍有不同: 结论 ※a. when后常跟短动词(瞬间动词),有时也可跟长动词。 while后只能接长动词(延续性动词或be动词)。 ※b. 主句和从句两个动作都发生在过去,长动作用过去进行时,短动作用一般过去时,短动作发生在长动作进行的过程当中。 ※C. while连接两个长动作,当两个动作一长一短时, while(when)放在长动词的前 面,when放在短动词的前面。 (5)过去进行时和一般过去时的区别。 过去进行时表示过去某时正在进行的动作,而一般过去时则表示一个完成的动作。也就是说用一般过去时,只表示有过这件事;用过去进行时,则强调动作的连续性。 ① I wrote a letter this morning. 今天上午我写了一封信。(信写完了) I was writing a letter this morning. 今天上午我在写一封信。(信不一定写完) ② The children watched TV yesterday evening. 昨天晚上孩子们看了电视。(强调过去发生了这件事) The children were watching TV yesterday evening. 昨晚孩子们都在看电视。(强调昨晚看电视这一动作的持续性) 【语法】B. when, while, as 用法 1.when,while,as 意义 “当……时候”,引导时间状语从句。 ① when + 短动词或长动词 ② as + 短动词或长动词 ③ while + 长动词(be动词也是长动词) 2. ①while 连接两个长动作,两个动作同时发生。(主句和从句都是长动词,常用进行时) Father was watching TV while mother was cooking dinner. ②as 连接两个同时发生的短动词。 Andy came into the room as Millie sat down on the sofa. ③一个长动作和一个短动作,短动作发生在长动作过程之中,也就是说,长动作先发生,短动作后发生。分两种情况: A.主句是长动作,从句用when+短动作。 I was wathing TV when father got home. B.主句是短动作,从句用while/as/when+长动作。 Father got home while/as/when I was watching TV. 3.as还有一种特殊用法,用于两个平行结构。表示:一个主语同时进行两个动作;一种状态随另一种状态的变化而变化.(意为:①一边做……一边做…… ②随着……) ① He sang as he worked. 他边工作边唱歌。 ② As he grew older,he became more confident. 随着年龄的增长他变得更加自信。 4.when/while+ doing sth. Jim found a dead cat when entering the room. Jim heard a loud shout while doing his homework at nine last night. 【语法】C. 重点短语句型 1. I saw you and your mother standing on the side of the road. 【see sb. doing sth. 看到某人正在做某事(感官动词用法)】 2.kick the ball 踢球 3.break down 出故障、坏掉 【break过去式 broke】 4.because of the cold weather 由于寒冷天气 5.ring someone to come and help 打电话叫人来帮忙 6.build/make a snowman 堆雪人 7.fall over 摔倒 8.make a big snowball 滚一个大雪球 四、Integrated skills 1.get out as soon as possible 尽快出去 【as ...as possible = as... as sb. can 尽可能】 2.protect yourself from thick smoke 保护你自己免受隆烟(之苦) 3.stay low to the ground 贴着地面 4.Never go back into the building on fire 决不要返回去进入着火的楼房 5.walk through the flood water 在洪水中行走 6.follow/obey traffic rules 遵守交通规则 7.keep ourselves safe from fires 保持我们自己安全远离火患 8.What should we do if our building is on fire? 【be on fire = catch fire】 如果我们大楼着火了,我们怎么办? 9.use a wet towel to cover my mouth 用一块湿毛巾捂住我的嘴【use... to do... = use... for doing...】 = cover my mouth with a wet towel 10.stay away from a window 远离窗户 11. cover the burn with a clean towel 用一块干净的毛巾捂住烧伤的伤口 五、Study skills 创造新单词:将两个单词合在一起构成合成词。 直接合成 直接合成 rail + way railway book + shop bookshop earth + quake earthquake class + room classroom pan + cake pancake country + side countryside snow + ball snowball gentle +man gentleman grand + daughter granddaughter house + work housework grand + son grandson news + paper newspaper black + board blackboard super + market supermarket notice + board noticeboard公告栏 week + day weekday 中间加“-”来合成 week + end weekend north + east north-east head + ache headache part + time part-time兼职的 【注】:policeman, fisherman, Englishman,postman等是复合词,复数将a改成e. 但:Walkman, human, German不是合成词,复数在后面加s. 六、Task 1.share an umbrella with sb. 与某人合用一把伞 2.a strong wind came from behind 一阵强风从背后袭来【此句中为behind为地点副词】 3.the next morning 第二天早晨(非明天早晨,特指过去或将来某个时间点的第二天早晨) 4.The snow kept falling. 一直下雪 【keep + doing sth.】 5.hear the noise of traffic 听到车辆的嘈杂声 6.clear the snow from the street 清除街上的积雪 单项填空 1.

That ability makes these plants some of the most interesting plants on earth. Insect-eating plants have bright colors, smells, and flowers to make insects come closer. Insects are then trapped by the plants and become their food. Most kinds of insect-eating plants are smaller plants. They can reach up to 12 inches in height. Some taller ones can grow to the height of 3 feet. These insect-eating plants live all over the world. About 40 kinds live in North America. Each type has its own special way to trap insects. And each type has its own special look. For example, the Venus flytrap can feel when a moving insect is in between its leaves and will very quickly close to catch the insect. If the insect is too small and gets out of it, the trap will open again in less than 12 hours. If the insect moves around and can’t get out, the trap will get more closed. Insect-eating plants usually live in wetlands. They have different ways to get the food they need to live. Insects that visit the plant are trapped as food. Just like other plants, insect-eating plants also get energy in the process (过程) of photosynthesis (光合作用). Insect-eating plants don’t always have to include insects in their diet, however, they seem to be healthier when they do. 26. Which of the following is TRUE about insect-eating plants? A.

Some of them liked tea, too; but not like her parents did. Jill’s family, Billy’s family, and Tanya’s family each had just two or three boxes of tea on a shelf, but Julie’s had a whole cabinet (橱柜) for tea. No tea bags in boxes either; her parents drank tea leaves only. “The real tea,” her dad called it. Every Chinese New Year, her parents would have a traditional tea ceremony (仪式)—“Cha Dao’’ in Chinese. Her mom said it was an important cultural tradition, but Julie just thought it was B-O-R-I-N-G. However, now that she was 13. Julie fell different. She decided it was time this New Year to take an interest in her own family and cultural history she actually (事实上) knew very little. She only visited her grandparents in China once when she was five years old. “Why do we have to do this tea ceremony every year? And why do you always say that drinking tea is part of your DNA?” Julie asked her mother. “Well, the DNA thing is a figure of speech (比喻),” Julie’s mother replied. She walked to the book shelf, and pulled out a yellow and red book The Classic of Tea: Origins & Rituals(茶经:起源与仪式), written by Lu Yu. “This book is all about how tea is grown, how the leaves are processed (处理), and things like that. I advise you read this instead of wasting your time with all that TV.” “I watch nothing but Tea TV,” Julie joked. “Right. Well in the book, Yu describes the tea trees in South China. Back in those days, they would compress (压缩) tea leaves in to little cakes—not like a birthday cake, just a little brick of leaves. They’d add hot water to make the drink we know as tea, and the Chinese call…” “Cha,” Julie smiled. Cha was one of a few Chinese words Julie learnt. “Then what about the ceremonies?” ‘‘Well, Chinese tea ceremony is not just drinking of tea, but a way for families to connect. It’s also about peace and enjoyment.” 29. How are Julie’s parents different from her friends’ parents? A. They like Chinese tea much more than her friends’ parents do. B. They like reading books while her friends’ parents always watch TV. C. They have less interest in Chinese history than her friends’ parents do. D. They celebrate all the Chinese festivals while her friends’ parents do not. 30. Why does the wrier write the word boring as “B-O-R-I-N-G” in paragraph 2? A. To help readers understand how to spell the word. B. To describe how excited Julie feels during ten ceremonies. C. To tell how quiet Julie had to be during the tea ceremony. D.
