I think highly of those who are searching for the Amber Room. Teaching steps: Step1:Reivision. Get the students to retell the passage Step 2:Vocabulary Ss read aloud together Step 3: Learning about new words and expressions P3-4 Ex1, Ex2, Ex3 P42 Ex1 Step 4: Learning about the language points in the reading passage Although it feels as hard as stone, it easily melts when heated. 虽然它摸起来像石头一样硬，

可是加热后很容易融化。 when heated = when it is heated

Once it is heated, the amber can be made into any shape.一旦被加热，琥珀便可以被制成任何形状。 be made into（＋成品）

被制成…，被做成…。如：

Wood can be made into paper. 木头可以被制成纸。

比较：be made of /from(+原材料)

由…制成/做成。如：

The table is made of wood. 这张桌子是由木头制成的。（看得出原材料）

Paper is made from wood. 纸是由木头制成的。（看不出原材料）

The design for the room was of the fancy style popular in those days. 屋子的设计是当时流行的极富艺术表现力的式样。

of + n. 相当于 adj., 如:

Those vegetables are of the same kind. The two boys are of the same age.

This dictionary is of great help.

= This dictionary is very helpful.

又如：of use / value / importance = useful / valuable / important Everyone agreed that it was the best and biggest work of amber art ever made. 大家都认为这是有史以

来所制作的最大最好的琥珀艺术品。 work: 作品，是可数名词

ever made = that had ever been made Later, Catherine II had the Amber Room moved to the palace outside St Petersburg where she spent her summer. 后来，叶卡婕林娜二世派人把琥珀屋搬到了圣彼得堡郊外她避暑的宫殿中。 have sth. done 叫别人做某事（不是自己做），如：

He had his hair cut last week.

他上周理了发。

The boss had the papers copied at once.

老板叫人马上复印这些文件。

比较：have sb. do sth. (=make sb. do sth.) 使某人做某事; have sb. doing sth. 任由、容忍某人做某事。如：

What would you have me do? 你要我做什么？

I won’t have you saying such things. 我不容许你讲这种话。

In 1770, the room was completed the way she wanted it. 1770年，这间琥珀屋按照她的要求完成了。 the way she wanted it : in the way that she wanted it the way 前面省略了in, she wanted it是定语从句，修饰the way。

in the / this / that way中的介词in经常省略。如：

I think you are doing it the wrong way. 我认为你做的方法是错的。

修饰way(方法、方式)的定语从句中关系词可以用 that或 in which，也可以不用关系词。如：

Many people hate the way ( that / in which) she treats her servants. 很多人讨厌她对待仆人的方式。

This was a time when the two countries were at war. 这是在两国交战的时期。 a time: 时期，是可数名词

at war: 交战。类似的短语还有：at work, at dinner, at play等。 There was no doubt that the boxes were then put on a train for Konigsberg, at that time a German city on the Baltic Sea. 毫无疑问，这些箱子后来被装上火车运往哥尼斯堡，当时它是波罗的海边的一个城市。 There is no doubt (that…): 毫无疑问，是固定句型。如：

There is no doubt that the man is telling a lie. 毫无疑问那个人在撒谎。

注意：There is no doubt后接名词时需用介词about / of。如：

There is no doubt about his honesty.毫无疑问他是诚实的。

Following old photos, the new room has been made to look much like the old one. 它是根据旧照片来建造的，样子非常像老的琥珀屋。 Following old photos: being made according to old photos, 是现在分词充当状语，又如：

Finding that her mother had left her alone, the little girl was very disappointed. 发现妈妈留下她独自一人，这个小姑娘很失望。
