Part 2 Key grammar
(1) 用could提出请求和征求许可
1. 用could提出请求:Could you (please) do sth? 译为“你能......吗?”或“请你......好吗?”,
是一种比较客气的的提出请求的方式,希望得到对方肯定回答。Could不是can的过去式,是委婉礼貌的说法。
肯定回答:Yes, I can./Of course, I can./OK./No problem./Sure./With pleasure.等
否定回答:Sorry, I can’t./I’m afraid I can’t. +原因
Eg: --- Could you please lend me some money? I want to buy my girlfriend a diamond ring.
--- Sorry, I can’t. If I have money, I will buy my girlfriend a diamond ring.
2. 用could征求许可:Could I do sth.? 译为“我能/可以......吗?”此时肯定回答和否定回答都不用could.
肯定回答:Yes, you can./Of course./Certainly./No problem./Sure.
否定回答:Sorry, you can’t./you mustn’t./I’m afraid you can’t.
Eg: --- Could I smoke here? --- No, you can’t. Look at the sign “No smoking”!

(2) while的用法
1. 表示对比或转折:而;然而。此时while一般位于句中。
Eg: Some people waste food while others haven’t enough.
You like sports, while I prefer music.
2. 引导时间状语从句:当......的时候;和......同时。此时两个动作同时发生,从句谓语动词通常是延续性动词。
Eg: While she was listening to music, she fell asleep.她听着音乐睡着了。
His parents died while he was still at school.她还在读书时父母就去世了。
3. 引导让步状语从句:虽然,尽管。通常位于句首。

三、六选五(B卷狂练)
Children go to church, then have a big lunch, then go out to play while mum is doing the housework. That was a typical (典型的) British Sunday in the 1960s. 1 .
Some British sociologists studied the typical British Sunday. They found that people get up later and do less housework than they did 50 years ago. They are far more likely to be out shopping or enjoying themselves than cooking Sunday lunch.
2 . Most women caught up on their weekly housework and cooked a nice lunch. They hardly had some free time until afternoon,after they cleaned the dishes. Then there would be another busy time between 5 :00 pm and 6 :00 pm for tea.
But now, British can have brunch (早午餐) at the restaurant. 3 . “You only have two free
days a week. You don’t want to waste one because there is nothing to do but watch boring TV,” said Elizabeth Biggs, 25, a producer in London.
“On Saturday you are recovering( 恢复) from the week,” Biggs added. “ 4 You want to get as much as you can out of the day before you have to go back to work.”
In the past, British women usually did their shopping during the week, while the husband was at work. “Now men seem to do that as much as women,” said Jonathan Gershuny, who took part in the study.
5 Back in the 1960s, men were far more likely to spend Sundays out of the house at the pub or playing football before lunch.
A. And it is usually a busy day.
B. Sunday mornings were busy 50 years ago.
C. Sundays are the last time for the weekend.
D. But things now could not be more different.
E. Fewer people would like to cook themselves.
F. Men also do more housework now on Sundays.

四、完成表格。(B卷周计划)
Different cultures make different families. For example, there are differences in the way that Chinese and Americans raise( 养育) children.
First, Chinese and American families have different attitudes( 态度) towards independence. In Chinese parents’ eyes, every child is their apple. It is not surprising to see Chinese parents always help their children with getting dressed, having meals, bathing and other things. American parents, on the other hand, always teach their children how to do things alone from childhood.
Second, most Chinese parents often let their children have more classes after school, such as piano, drawing, singing and so on. Parents want their children to develop in an all-round way and be better students than others. The problem is that their children may not be interested in these lessons. American parents try to respect( 尊重) their children' s interests and usually don't make them do what they don’t like.
Third, when children make some mistakes, parents in China and America treat (处理) in different ways. When Chinese parents see their children make mistakes, they often get very angry with them and shout at them. This is bad for developing a good relationship between parents and their children. American parents think everyone makes mistakes, because mistakes are the part of life. They often say, “It’s OK to make mistakes. Making mistakes helps you learn.”
Families in China and America are quite different, and one way may seemed better than the other, but it is better to think about whether the parents fit the family or not, instead of talking about which one is right.

When they get older, they want to 7 more and more things. They want things that more 8 than candies. So they have to work harder! They often help their parents wash the family car, cut the grass, or cook meals.
