Post - reading: - Let students retell the main points of the passage in their own words with the help of key words and sentences. if从句的用法包括以下几种： 1.引导条件状语从句：if引导的真实条件从句，谓语用陈述语气，表示可能性很大，作假使、如果解释，通常用一般现在时代替一般将来时。如果if从句中用will，表示意愿。从句如为虚拟条件从句，谓语动词要用虚拟语气，表示可能性不大或与过去事实相反，作要是、假如解释。可指过去的情况，也可指现在和将来的情况。指将来情况时可用should。 2.引导让步状语从句：if可引导让步状语从句，作虽然、即使解释，常和even连用。 3.引导名词性从句：if可引导名词性从句，作是否解，常放在ask、doubt、know、learn、see、wonder等动词后。一般用在口语中，而且不能用于句首。 4.表示惊奇或愤怒：if可以表示惊奇或愤怒。用于陈述语气的否定句时，意义则是肯定的。 5.省略if：在现代口语中一、三人称后常用was代替were。if引导的虚拟条件句中，助动词were、should、had可以移至主语前，此时if可省略。if引导的条件从句中可以省略be和主语。 6.if从句的时态：在if引导的条件从句里，当主句主语与从句主语一致时，且从句谓语部分含有动词be时，有时可省略从句的主语和动词be。若要表示与事实相反的假设，if引出的条件从句以及相应的主句则用虚拟语气，具体格式为：（1）与现在事实相反：主句用would(should,could,might)+v.，从句动词用过去式(be通常用were)。（2）与将来事实相反：主句用would(should,could,might)+v.，从句动词用过去式(be通常用were)或用should+动词原形或wereto+动词原形。（3）与过去事实相反：主句用would(should,could,might)+have+过去分词，从句用过去完成时。 7.if从句的倒装：在文学体裁中，if有时可省略，然后将主语与所用的限定动词（尤其是were,had,should）倒置。 Step4 Practice Role - play: Divide students into groups of four. Let them role - play an earthquake situation: one student is the narrator, one is inside a building, one is outside, and one is after the earthquake.
