(Answers may vary.) _________________________________________ I think English is interesting and charming. 4．What is your experience in English learning? (Answers may vary.) __________________________________________________________ ______________________________________________________________________________________________ For me, not being afraid of making mistakes makes me a good learner. What I learn from mistakes is that I should be confident and not shy when I'm learning English. |阅|读|技|能|提|升| 本文的语篇类型为小品文。小品文一般篇幅短小，内容精简，主要是通过事例和艺术形象来表现主题，议论较少，叙述、描写或抒情成分较多，且以幽默的方式或喜剧性的情节以及活泼、轻松的语言来揭露问题的实质，在给人欢笑的同时引人深思。 本文以幽默、风趣的笔调列举并评价了英语中让学习者迷惑不解的“疯狂”现象。阅读之前可先根据课文标题和图片猜测课文大意，阅读中对之前的猜测进行验证，判断作者的写作意图并进行细节理解，感受英语语言的幽默、“疯狂”和创意，理解英语词汇背后蕴藏的文化内涵。 02 课文写法借鉴 (一)赏用词之妙 1．This got me thinking how English can be a crazy language to learn. 赏析：crazy用得形象又恰到好处，此处为形容词，意为“不合理的；疯狂的”，用来评价在英语中让学习者迷惑不解的现象，看似“不合理”或“疯狂”，实则反映了英语的魅力。 2．If “hard” is the opposite of “soft”， why are “hardly” and “softly” not an opposing pair? 赏析：opposite与opposing是一对同根词，用在同一句中形成前后呼应，增加了语言的韵律美。 3．English was invented by people, not computers, and it reflects the creativity of the human race. 赏析：句中分别使用了people与the human race来表述同一概念，避免了重复用词造成的行文枯燥、僵化。reflect为多义词，在本句中表示“反映”，为高级表达，相对于普通用词show能更精准地传达此处的文意。 [提能训练] ①(完成句子)I know ______________________， but it may be worth a try. 我知道这个主意听起来很疯狂，但值得一试。 ②(完成句子)The twin sisters _________________________ to each other in every way so during the talk they took ________________. 这对双胞胎姐妹在各方面都完全相反，所以在谈话中她们持相反的观点。 this idea sounds crazy were completely opposite opposing views ③(英译汉)There were some comments about the sentences describing the nature of the human race. The soft handwriting reflected a thoughtful mind. _________________________________________________________________ 对这些描写人性的句子有评论。柔和的文字反映出深思熟虑的头脑。 (二)赏句式之高 1．You also have to wonder at the unique madness of a language in which a house can burn up as it burns down， in which you fill in a form by filling it out， and in which an alarm is only heard once it goes off! 赏析：此处连续用了三个由“in which”引导的定语从句，展现了英语语言中的“疯狂”现象。并列定语从句的使用使行文更加紧凑、明快，语言感染力更强。 2．That is why when the stars are out， they are visible， but when the lights are out， they are invisible. 赏析：本句为why引导的表语从句，举例说明了英语语言的创造性；表语从句中含有but连接的并列句，两个分句中又各含有一个由when引导的时间状语从句。多种句式交替使用，使得表意更丰富，表达更地道。 [提能训练|完成句子] ①The owner of the house whose wife is dead， __________________ in New York and _______________________________， is willing to sell the house at low price.(定语从句) 房主的妻子已过世，儿子在纽约工作，他想搬去和儿子一起生活，(所以)愿意以低价出售此房。 ②That's _______________________， he is happy， ____________ _________________， he feels bored. 这就是当他在工作的时候，他很快乐，但是当他无事可做的时候，他就感到无聊的原因。 whose son works who wants to go and live with him why when he is working but when he has nothing to do (三)赏修辞之功 That is why when the stars are out， they are visible， but when the lights are out， they are invisible. And that is why when I wind up my watch， it starts， but when I wind up this passage， it ends. 赏析：此句运用了“双关”修辞手法。句中的out及wind up运用了一词多义的特点来达到一语双关的效果。 [提能训练] ①(英译汉) I came to see him last night， but he was out. He didn't come back until all the lights in the building were out. After we wound up the discussion about the coming meeting， I started my car， wound the car window up and left. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 昨晚我来看他，但他不在家。直到楼里所有的灯都熄灭了，他才回来。在我们结束了对即将召开的会议的讨论后，我发动了车子，摇上车窗就离开了。 ②(完成句子)Not everything that can be counted counts and not everything __________________________. 并非所有算得清清楚楚的东西都重要，也并非所有重要的东西都能被算得清清楚楚。 that counts can be counted (四)赏衔接之顺 For example， in our free time we can sculpt a sculpture and paint a painting， but we take a photo. And when we are traveling we say that we are in the car or the taxi， but on the train or bus! 赏析：本句中使用for example(举例说明)，but(表示转折)，and(表示承接)说明了英语的“疯狂”之处，这些衔接词的运用既将相互独立的句子自然地衔接在一起，也使上下文之间的逻辑更严密。 [提能训练] ①(完成句子)They rushed to the railway station，______________________. 他们匆忙到达火车站，但是太晚了。 ②(英译汉)She didn't speak to anyone and nobody spoke to her. __________________________________________________ but they were too late 她不和任何人说话，也没有任何人和她说话。 03 美文阅读润心 每种语言都有自己独特的习语。就英语习语来说，易学难通。就算你知道每个单词的词义，也很难弄清楚整个习语之含义，因为习语多属于说不清、道不明的约定俗成的固定结构，有着丰富的文化内涵。英语是世界上最通行的语言，是联合国工作语言之一，我们想要学好英语，英语习语不容忽视。掌握并恰到好处地运用习语能大大提升语言表达能力，也有助于提高跨文化交际能力。 English is full of funny expressions that don't always make sense. Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word， you may not understand the idiom because you don't understand the culture behind it. Here are some English idioms based on animals. When children jump around and act silly， their parents may tell them to stop “monkeying around”. To “monkey around” means to do things that are not useful or serious， or to simply waste time. (1) Many American families have and love pet dogs. But for some unknown reason， Americans use “dog” in a phrase that means to feel unwell. If you are “as sick as a dog”， you're really， really sick. Sometimes you may also hear cats mentioned in conversations， “I told you to keep that secret， but you have just ‘let the cat out of the bag’！” You probably guessed it — that idiom means to reveal a secret or tell facts that were previously unknown. Dogs and cats don't always get along， but they appear side by side in a commonly used idiom. When it rains heavily， people might say it's “raining cats and dogs”． Heavy rain often ruins people's plans for outdoor activities. But on a lovely day， you can have a picnic. If a swarm (一群) of tiny bugs (虫子) love your food and start to hover (盘旋) around you， it would be really annoying. That experience perfectly explains why people often tell someone who keeps bothering them to “stop bugging me”． Idioms are very common in both spoken and written English. If you want to have a better understanding of English， you have to learn idioms. (2) [阅读理解] 1．According to paragraph 1， which is right about idioms? A．Expressions which are based on animals. B．Expressions with rich cultural background. C．Expressions that always make sense. D．Expressions which are easy to understand. √ 2．What can “monkeying around” be used to describe? A．Children jump around and waste time. B．Children do something useful and serious. C．Children play with monkeys with their parents. D．Children spend time playing with their family pets. √ 3．What can be learned from the text? A．Dogs and cats always get along nicely. B．Bugs can be used to show your annoyance. C．Americans believe cats can give away secrets. D．Americans use the idiom “as sick as a dog” to describe a healthy man. √ [素养积累] 1．由文积词汇 make sense　　　　　　 有意义，讲得通 idiom n. 习语；成语；惯用语 pet n. 宠物 reveal v. 揭示 previously adv. 以前 ruin v. 毁坏 annoying adj. 令人烦恼的 bother v. 打扰 2．据文悟句式 句(1)：even if引导让步状语从句，because引导原因状语从句。 句(2)：why引导的宾语从句作explains的宾语。在why引导的宾语从句中又包含who引导的定语从句。 04 课时跟踪检测 Ⅰ.阅读理解 A Elena (Canada， teacher) If I had to choose what language to learn next， it's a tough decision but it'd probably be German， because many people that know several languages tell me that German is their favourite language in terms of expressing themselves. And I think it might have something to do with the vast amount of vocabulary the German language has. So I think it'd be really difficult but a fun challenge. Bryan (USA， writer) I think I'd like to learn French next because it's a very romantic (浪漫的) language and it could be very useful in different job situations. Besides， I think it could help me understand English a bit more as well， since it was previously the language of diplomacy (外交)． Georgina (England， Olympic swimmer) I'd love to learn Italian next. I visited Milan last year and I think it would be great to be able to speak to some of the locals. Also， it's quite similar to Spanish， so I don't think it would be too confusing. James (New Zealand， travel writer) I'd really like to learn French. I actually learned it some years ago， but I haven't used it in a long time and I've forgotten it.But it's a language that I really enjoy speaking， and I think France is a wonderful country. 语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。文中四人分别表述了自己最想学习的一种语言并给出了理由。 1．One of the reasons why Bryan wants to learn French is that ________ . A．it is easy to learn B．it is used frequently C．it sounds more beautiful than English D．it allows him to express himself more clearly √ 解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“it could be very useful in different job situations”可知，在不同的工作场景中法语都非常有用。由此可推测，因为法语的使用频率很高，所以Bryan想学法语。 2．We can infer that Georgina _______. A．will live in Milan B．can speak Spanish C．feels puzzled about her career D．wants to make some Italian friends √ 解析：推理判断题。根据第三段中的“it's quite similar to Spanish， so I don't think it would be too confusing”可推测，因为Georgina会西班牙语，所以她认为和西班牙语很像的意大利语应该不会很难学。 3．Who is the most fearless learner? A．Elena.　　　　　 B．Bryan. C．Georgina. D．James. √ 解析：推理判断题。根据第一段中的“ ... the vast amount of vocabulary the German language has. So I think it'd be really difficult but a fun challenge”可知，德语的词汇量很大，学起来会很困难，但Elena仍然想去尝试学德语，并认为这是一项很有趣的挑战。由此不难看出，Elena是个不畏困难的学习者。 B When I was a boy， I disliked the feeling of “being a stranger” if my family went on holiday to another country. At the age of seven， we went to visit a family friend in France. I had been practicing my French and was excited to use it. I spoke the first French words in a bakery in Paris. Despite a carefully prepared request， I was not ready for the rapid fire response. I had no idea what the sales girl said! I was so upset and knew if I wanted to get better， I would have to put in more effort. I started studying Chinese after my trip to China and I studied at Beijing Normal University in the late 1990s. I knew the language would help me to understand China better. Like Chinese， my motivation to study Russian came from my interest in the country's history， culture and music. Although I studied languages before joining the foreign office， I hoped that one day I would work internationally. As a native English speaker， I didn't expect people to understand me while traveling the world. I wanted to make efforts to understand others through their languages. Learning a language also improves how you express yourself. When you have a limited vocabulary， you have to creatively communicate your messages and meanings. This can also benefit communication skills in your first language. You'll become more aware of the words you use and how you want people to respond. Being able to speak other languages gives you another dimension， not necessarily in terms of personality， but in your ability to have richer experiences with a broader mind. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者分享了自己学习法语、中文和俄语的经历，强调学习语言能提升表达能力，丰富人生体验，拓宽视野。 4．What upset the author in the bakery? A．He didn't meet his friend. B．He couldn't speak French. C．He didn't prepare the request. D．He had no idea of the girl's words. √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I had no idea what the sales girl said! I was so upset and knew if I wanted to get better， I would have to put in more effort.”可知，作者在面包店时，听不懂售货员说了什么，因此感到沮丧。 5．Why did the author study Russian? A．To live in Russia. B．To travel the world. C．To join the foreign office. D．To learn more about Russia. √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Like Chinese， my motivation to study Russian came from my interest in the country's history， culture and music. (和中文一样，我学习俄语的动机来自我对这个国家的历史、文化和音乐的兴趣。)”可知，作者学习俄语是为了更多地了解这个国家的历史、文化和音乐。 6．How many languages can the author speak? A．One. B．Two. C．Three. D．Four. √ 解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“I had been practicing my French ... ”可知，作者会说法语；根据第三段中的“I started studying Chinese ...”可知，作者会说中文；根据第四段中的“Like Chinese， my motivation to study Russian ...”可知，作者会说俄语；根据第五段中的“As a native English speaker， ...”可知，作者会说英语，所以，作者会讲四种语言。 7．What does the author intend to tell us? A．Ways of learning foreign languages. B．Benefits of learning foreign languages. C．Efforts needed to speak a language well. D．Different languages in different countries. √ 解析：推理判断题。根据第六段中的“Learning a language also improves how you express yourself.”和最后一段内容可知，作者通过分享学习多种语言的经历，强调了学习外语带来的好处，如更好地理解和表达自己，丰富个人体验等。 Ⅱ.阅读七选五 There are so many words in English that learning all of them can seem difficult.To make things even more challenging， certain words are pronounced differently. 8 Learn the vowel (元音) sounds. In English， there are five main vowels：a， e， i， o， u． 9 Each vowel has both a short sound (such as the “a” in “bat”) or a long sound (such as the “a” in “ask”)．Learn and practice these different vowel sounds to help teach you how to pronounce certain words and to improve your English pronunciation. 10 One of the most effective ways to learn a language is to listen to someone speaking it. Once you are familiar with how a language sounds， you will be able to start picking up more sounds， words and phrases. Record yourself. 11 To solve this problem and really see how you sound， try recording yourself.Use a smartphone or a tape recorder to play back. Get a spoken English tutor. To truly understand if you are saying and pronouncing words in the right way， find someone who can practice with you and act as a spoken English tutor. 12 A．Break down words. B．Listen to an English speaker. C．How do you know if you are saying things correctly? D．Sometimes the letter “y” can make a vowel sound， too. E．Luckily， there are tips that you can learn to make things a little easier. F．He or she will be able to correct you and teach you how to pronounce words better. G．Compare your English comprehension to someone else's to see if you are doing it correctly. 语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文，介绍了几个学习英语的好方法 8．选E　本空起到引出下文的作用，选项E(幸运的是，有一些你可以学习的技巧让事情变得更容易一些)能够引出下文给出的几点建议，符合语境。 9．选D　本段主要讨论元音，空前提到“there are five main vowels：a， e， i， o， u”，结合选项D中的“vowel sound”和“too”可知选D项。 10．选B　空处是段落小标题。由段落主题句“One of the most effective ways to learn a language is to listen to someone speaking it.”可知，本段主要讲述在学英语时要听一个会讲英语的人说话。故选B项。 11．选C　由空后的“To solve this problem and really see how you sound， try recording yourself.”可知，要解决这个问题并真正了解你的发音，试着给自己录音。结合选项可知，C项(你怎么知道你的发音对不对？)就是这个问题，与空后的“problem”照应。故选C项。 12．选F　根据段落小标题Get a spoken English tutor.可知，本段主要讲要找一个英语口语老师；根据常识可知，英语口语老师能纠正你的发音并教你如何更好地发音。故选F项。 本课结束 $$
