To help students discover and learn to use some useful structures Procedures 1. Warming up by learning about Charlotte Bronte English writer noted for her novel Jane Eyre (1847), sister of Anne Brontë and Emily Brontë. The three sisters are almost as famous for their short, tragic lives as for their novels. In their works they described love more truthfully that was common in Victorian age England. In the past 40 years Charlotte Brontë's reputation has risen rapidly, and feminist criticism has done much to show that she was speaking up for oppressed women of every age. 2. Discovering useful words and expressions Now turn to page 43 and do the words and expressions exercises 1 and 2.

2)Every afternoon a very old woman hobbled past the ramshackle house, a vast load of firewood on her back.(每天下午，一个背着一大背柴禾的老妇人都会从那间东倒西歪的房屋前蹒跚着走过。)

2.名词＋形容词(短语)

porcelain-faced Japanese women in kimonos.(这曲子过后，他发现自己身处几位穿着和服并且有着娇好面容的日本女人的包围之中。)

此外，with常常用在独立主格结构前，构成介词短语作状语。这种用法中的with不表达什么意义，因而常可省略。请看例句：

1) With a revolver in his right hand, Johnny hurled his muscular body against the door and smashed it down with a crash.(约翰尼右手拿着左轮手枪，健壮的身体猛扑在门上，轰隆一声把门撞开了。)

2) The traffic inched along, with horns honking.(汽车缓慢地向前挪着，喇叭声不断响着。)
