（二）内容解析

本节课的核心是重点单词和短语的用法, 关键要掌握他们的含义和不同用法。学生已经了解了课文，本节课进一步学习这些词和表达形式的用法。重点词和短语在会考和高考题中很常见，因此很重要。要精讲多炼。

五、教学过程

问题一：文章里的重点单词及表达有哪些？

设计意图：让学生掌握本单元课文的重点词汇、短语及一些表达形式。

师生活动：让学生以小组为单位，找出课文的重点词汇、短语及一些表达形式。

问题1:Although I was young I could simplify difficult sums.

尽管我很年轻，但我能简化一些复杂的数学题。

▲本句为although引导的让步状语从句，相当于though。Although 和though不能与but，

however，still等表示转折含义的词汇连用。

▲simplify

vt . 简化；使简易

Eg：The English in this story has been simplified to make it easily understood. 这个故事里的英语被简化了，可以更容易理解。

联想：simple

adj. 简单的简易性simply adv.简单地；仅仅；简直

变式练习：

vt.解决；解答

Eg：With a lot of problems to solve, he leads a hard life.

有许多问题要解决，他的日子不好过。

With the help of his friends, he finally solved the problem. 在朋友的帮助下，他终于解决了这个问题。

联想：solution

n. 解决办法；处理手段

误区点拨：settle 与

solve

二者都有“解决”的意思，但settle得解决对象是某种形式的争端，solve的解决对象往往是一个需要给出答案的问题。

Eg：settle an issue / argument

settle a quarrel / matter

Solve a problem / mystery / puzzle

settle difficulties 变式练习：

(1) With all the problems

D

at the meeting, the newly-elected manager felt rather relaxed.

(1)事实上，他没有通过驾照考试。

In reality

，he didn’t pass the driving test.

问题7: As time went by, I was made smaller.

▲句法分析：句中as为连词，引导时间状语从句，意为“随着”。

Eg: As spring draws near, it’s becoming warmer and warmer.

随着春天的来临，天气越来越暖和。

友情提示：with也可意为“随着”，但它是介词，不能引导从句，如：As the years have gone by……; 如用with, 应为：with the years passed……。

▲go by （时间等的）流逝；经过；（机会等）轻易地放过。

Eg：The weeks went slowly by. 时间一周周慢慢地过去了。

Eg: He was so ill that he couldn’t go to school. 他病得太重以至于不能上学了。

They are playing so skillfully that I’m afraid we’ll love the game.

他们打得这么熟练，因此我们担心我们得输了。

拓展：so + many / much / few / little + 名词

+ that

So + adj. + a / an + 可数名词单数

+ that

误区点拨：

so……that 与

so that

(1)so that既可表结果，也可表目的。

Eg：I hired a boat so that I could go fishing. 我租了一条船，为的是可以去钓鱼。

The driver let us get off the broken bus so that we walked there.

司机让我们下了那辆抛锚了得公共汽车，我们只好步行到那里。

Eg：He got up so late that he couldn’t catch the early train.他起晚了以至于没赶上早班火车。

So hard does he work that he seldom goes home.他工作那么努力，几乎不回家。

友情提示：

(1)so……that……结构中得so的不能换成as; that有时不能省略。

(2)so后加形容词修饰单数名词时，注意冠词的位置。

(3)such……that……结构中的that也可引导结果状语从句，such只能修饰名词。

(4)such……as……结构中的as引导的是一个定语从句。

(5)so, such修饰的成分置于句首时，主句应用部分倒装结构。

Eg: So difficult a question / Such a difficult question did the teacher give us that no one could work it out. 老师给我们出了一个如此难的问题，谁也没有解答出来。

变式练习：

用so或such填空：

(1)He runs

anyway (1)somewhat 有点，稍微

(2)somehow以某种方式；由于某种原因；莫名其妙地；用某种方法

(3)anyhow无论如何

(4)anyway无论如何（相当于anyhow）

变式练习：

用somewhat, somehow, anyhow 或
