过 程
Step 1: Leadin
建议(一):通过向学生询问关于愚人节及同学间相互恶作剧的相关问题引入本节课的话题“ The Bear Escaped!”。
For example:
(1) What day is April 1st?
(2) What do you know about April Fools’ Day?
(3) What can people do on April Fools’ Day?
(4) What kind of jokes can we play on April Fools’ Day?
建议(二):向学生展示一些愚人节的信息,讲解愚人节的来历及其特点。
愚人节的由来
愚人节也称万愚节,是西方的民间传统节日,节期在每年四月一日。愚人节已出现了几百年,对于它的起源众说纷纭。一种说法认为这一习俗源自印度的“诠俚节”。该节规定,每年三月三十一日的节日这天,不分男女老幼,可以互开玩笑、互相愚弄欺骗以换得娱乐。愚人节较普遍的说法是起源于法国。
1564年,法国首先采用新改革的纪年法格里历(即目前通用的阳历),以1月1日为一年之始。但一些因循守旧的人反对这种改革,依然按照旧历
固执地在4月1日这一天送礼品,庆祝新年。主张改革的人对这些守旧者的做法大加嘲弄。聪明滑稽的人在4月1日就给他们送假礼品,邀请他们参加假招待会。并把上当受骗的保守分子称为“四月傻瓜”或“上钩的鱼”。从此人们在4月1日便互相愚弄,成为法国流行的风俗。18世纪初,愚人节习俗传到英国,接着又被英国的早期移民带到了美国。
愚人节时,人们常常组织家庭聚会,用水仙花和雏菊把房间装饰一新。在愚人节的聚会上,还有一种做假菜的风俗。不过愚人节最典型的活动还是大家互相开玩笑,用假话捉弄对方。如今的愚人节在美国已主要是淘气的孩子们的节日了!
Step 2: Presentation
建议:通过向学生展示不同动物图片的方式,使学生学习本课新词protect, escape, fierce, fool。
For example:
Lions, tigers, bears and wolves are not gentle animals. They are very fierce.
fierce adj. 凶猛的;凶狠的
The monkey doesn’t like to live in the cage. It wants to escape from it.
escape v. 逃脱,逃走
escape from… 从……逃脱
We should protect wild animals.
protect v. 保护
Step 3: Drill
留出5分钟时间,让学生默读单词并熟记。
escape v. 逃脱;逃走
fierce adj. 凶猛的;凶狠的
protect v. 保护
fool n. 愚人

But he soon realized they were playing a 4. __________ on him.
Answers: 1. woke; 2. escaped; 3. Instead; 4. joke
Step 6: Language Points
1. What do you know about April Fools’ Day?
fool为可数名词,意思是“愚人”,复数形式是fools。
The man is not a fool. 这个男人不是傻瓜。
【拓展】fool 可以作动词,意思是“欺骗”,后面可以加名词或者代词作宾语。
That man was fooled. 那个男人被骗了。
2. He escaped!
escape 意为“逃跑,逃走”,作不及物动词。当表示“从……地方/某人手中逃跑”,需要用介词from。常指摆脱某种束缚或自己认为有害的环境而获得自由。
The parrot has escaped from the cage.
那只鹦鹉已经从笼子里逃走了。
3. We heard about it on the radio!
hear about 听说
辨析:hear about/of 与hear from
4. There’s a fierce bear coming. 有一只凶猛的熊要来了。
“There be+主语+动词-ing形式+其他.”意为“有……正在做某事”,动词-ing形式作定语,修饰主语。
There are many girls singing in the classroom.
许多女孩正在教室里唱歌。
【拓展】There be结构中be的单复数遵循就近原则。
There are two chairs, one desk and three pictures in the classroom.
There is one desk, two chairs and three pictures in the classroom.
两句的意思都是:教室里有一张桌子、两把椅子、三张图画。
5. Protect yourselves! 保护好自己!
protect作及物动词,意为“保护,保卫”,后加名词或代词作宾语。其构成短语protect…from…表示“保护……不受……”。
We should protect the animals.我们应该保护动物。
We should protect the animals from being killed.我们应该保护动物免受杀害。
6. You’re joking, aren’t you? 你们在开玩笑,不是吗?
这是个反意疑问句,它的基本结构是“陈述句+附加问句”,遵循的原则是“前肯后否,前否后肯”,也就是说前面的陈述句是肯定句,附加问句就用否定句;前面的陈述句是否定句,附加问句就用肯定句。
He has made money, hasn’t he? 他挣过钱,是吗?
He hasn’t made money, has he? 他没挣过钱,是吗?
【拓展】附加问句中的主语必须是代词,代替陈述句的主语,谓语动词在人称、数和时态上要和陈述句中的谓语动词保持一致。回答时,可用“Yes+肯定的简短答语”或者“No+否定的简短答语”。需要注意的是,翻译时中英两种语言的差异,当陈述句为否定句时,yes 翻译成“不”,而no则翻译成“是”。
—She doesn’t like swimming, does she?
她不喜欢游泳,是吗?
—Yes, she does.不,她喜欢。
/No, she doesn’t.是的,她不喜欢。
7. What will happen if he comes to our neighbourhood?
if引导条件状语从句 当主句为一般将来时,if条件从句用一般现在时表示将来,即遵循“主将从现”原则。
We will help him if he comes to us for help.
如果他来向我们求助,我们就会帮他。
8. The number of the bears is getting bigger and bigger.
熊的数量正变得越来越多。
the number of…意为“……的数量”。后接名词复数,在句中作主语时,谓语动词要用单数形式。
The number of the girls is 18 in our class.我们班有18个女生。
The number of the cars is much bigger than before.
汽车的数量比原来多了很多。
【拓展】a number of意为“许多”,后接名词复数。在句中作主语时,谓语动词用复数形式。number前面还可以用large, small来修饰。
A number of cars are on the street.街上有很多汽车。
9. Have you ever played a trick on a friend?
trick在这作名词,意思是“玩笑;诡计;恶作剧”,是一个可数名词。play a trick on sb. 意思是“捉弄某人”,和play tricks on sb. 意思相同。
We played a trick / tricks on Lucy. 我们捉弄了露西一下。
【拓展】play a joke on意思是“和某人开玩笑”,相当于play jokes on sb.
Don’t play a joke / jokes on disabled people.不要开残疾人的玩笑。
10. We should protect them and stop them from disappearing.
stop…from doing sth.意思是“阻止/防止……做某事”,相当于keep…from doing sth.。其中,from在主动语态中可以省略,但在被动语态中不能省略。
Nothing should stop children (from) going to school.没有什么应该阻止孩子上学。
