1. Page12. Discovering useful structures Exercise One.
2. Ask students to read the examples and draw a conclusion and some general usages of past participle as object complements. Teacher gives necessary explanations and how to use past participles as object complements.
Object complement
英语中有些动词,除了有一个直接宾语外,还要有一个宾补,句子才完整。
一、作宾语补足语的过去分词与宾语之间的关系
1. 及物动词(短语)的过去分词用作宾语补足语时,宾语即是过去分词的逻辑宾语,宾语和过去分词之间存在逻辑上的被动关系。例如:I want the letter posted. 我想把这封信寄出去。
2. 少数不及物动词如 go, change, fall 等的过去分词作宾语补足语时,仅表示动作完成。因此,宾语与过去分词之间不存在逻辑上的被动关系。例如: She found her necklace gone on her way home. 在回家的路上,她发现项链不见了。
3. 动词 seat, hide, dress 等的过去分词作宾语补足语一般表示状语而不表示被动的意义,因此,虽然宾语与它们存在逻辑上的主动关系,但也只能用它们的过去分词作宾语补足语。例如:When I came in, I found a strange girl seated in the corner. 我进来时,发现一个陌生的女孩坐在角落里。
二、需用过去分词作宾语补足语的情况
1. 表示“意欲;命令”的动词如 like, want, wish, order 等,可用过去分词作宾语补足语。
The father wants his daughter taught the piano. 这位父亲想让女儿学钢琴。
2. 感官动词 see, hear, notice, observe, watch, feel, find 等后,可用过去分词作宾语补足语。
Eg:I saw an old man knocked down by a car just now. 刚才我看到一位老人被车撞倒了。
3. 使役动词 have, get, make, leave, keep 等后,可用过去分词作宾语补足语。
Have you got your films developed? 你拿胶卷去冲洗了没有?
4. “with +宾语+过去分词”结构中,过去分词用作介词 with 的宾语补足语。这一结构通常在句中作时间、方式、条件、原因等状语。例如:
The murderer was brought in, with his hands tied behind his back.
凶手被带进来了,他的双手被绑在背后。(表方式)
With water heated, we can see the steam. 水一被加热,我们就会看到水蒸气。(表条件)
With the matter settled, we all went home. 事情得到解决,我们都回家了。(表原因)
注意:在这一结构中,当宾语为某一身体部位,且作宾补的动词是及物动词时,身体部位通常是过去分词的逻辑宾语,因而过去分词不可换用现在分词。
She stood in front of him, with her eyes fixed on his face. 她站在他面前,眼睛注视着他( fix one's eyes on 为固定短语,因此,不可将句中 fixed 换为 fixing )
He stood for an instant with his hand still raised. 他仍然举着手站了一会儿。
当用某些不及物动词的分词形式作身体部位的宾补时,用现在分词的形式。
She felt her heart beating fast. 她觉得心跳很快。(beat 意为“心跳”,是不及物动词)
三、掌握“使役动词 have + 宾语+过去分词”的几种含义
在“ have +宾语+过去分词”结构中,过去分词作宾语补足语,have 也可用 get 。这一结构具有以下几种含义:
1. 意为“主语请别人做某事”。例如:
He wants to have his eyes examined tomorrow.
他明天想去检查眼睛。(“检查”的动作由医生来进行)
2. 意为“主语遭遇、遭受某一不愉快、不测的事情”。例如:
Be careful, or you'll have your hands hurt. 当心,否则会弄伤手的。
3. 意为“使完成某事”,事情既可以是别人做完,也可以由主语参与完成。例如:
He had the walls painted this morning. 他今早把墙漆了。(主语自己可能参与)
四、区分过去分词作宾语补足语与现在分词作宾语补足语
一般说来,过去分词作宾语补足语时,宾语是动作的承受者;现在分词作宾语补足语时宾语是动作的执行者。试比较:
I found him lying on the grass just now. 我刚才发现他躺在草坪上。
I found him knocked down by a car. 我看到他被车撞了。
五、过去分词与不定式,现在分词作宾语补足语的区别
三者与宾语逻辑上都是主谓关系,但是过去分词强调他们之间的被动关系,不定式强调动
发生的全过程,现在分词强调它们之间的主动关系.

I saw her coming into the classroom.

Why not visit Beijing's Hutong ?

Often, it is Beijing's winding Hutongs that attract tourists from home and abroad rather than the high-rise buildings ‘Hutong is a typical small street in Beijing that originated during the Yuan Dynasty (1271-1368). During that time, water well is the settlement around which people lived. There are tens of thousands of hutongs surrounding the Forbidden City . As the symbol of Beijing City, a hutong has its own structure, which makes it a wonder in the world. When taking a bird's eye view of Beijing, you will find the combination of hutongs and courtyards just like an orderly chessboard with delicate gardens, fine rockeries, and ancient ruins. Hutongs have witnessed the development of Beijing. Where there is a hutong, there is a story.

【教学反思】
1.研究性学习案例较好地运用现代教育信息技术与高中英语课堂教学相结合,使用多媒体课件 the United Kingdom 演示辅助教学,扩大了教学容量,提高了教学密度。有效地完成了本课的教学目标,课堂教学效率高。
2.在这一项研究性学习的实施过程中,学生的合作意识加强了,主体精神得到了培养和锻炼。这种合作学习的教学方式使学生由“被动”的学转变为“主动”的学。他们的素材在老师的帮助下,被整合成了几个既相互独立、又互为补充的板块,做成演示课件,在多媒体教室里向学生展示,创造了一个在普通教室里,用书本、粉笔、录音机根本无法实现的英语环境,加深了学生对课文的理解和记忆,取得了很好的效果。另外,这样的课可以使各个学科的相互联系更为紧密。如进行本课的教学时,还涉及到了地理、历史学科的内容,这样,英语教学就与这些学科内容的教学融为一体了。
3.演示课件以其生动活泼,信息量大,影音丰富的特点,受到教师和学生的欢迎。让学生能成为负有任务的探索者和自主自控的学习者,真正让学生积极、持久地参与到课堂教学.
【关于英国的小知识】
1. John Bull 约翰牛
“约翰牛”是英国人的绰号,意义是 English nation, the typical Englishmen. 这个雅号是英国人自己取的,出自 16 世纪英国著名作家兼宫廷御医约翰?阿布斯诺特(John Arbuthnot,1667—1735)的政治讽刺作品。
阿布斯诺特在 1712 年写了一本讽刺小说,名叫《约翰牛的生平》(The History of John Bull),该书的主人公约翰牛就是英国的人格化、形象化。
作者笔下的约翰牛,是个英国“自由民”,为人粗暴冷酷,桀骜不逊,颇有些牛劲。他盛气凌人、欺辱弱者,如果谁流露出对他稍微表示不满的反抗情绪,他立即摆出一副格斗的架势。作者通过这个赳赳武夫的形象,暗喻当年英国的专横跋扈,抨击“民权党”(英国自由党的前身)的好战策略。显然,这个绰号最初含贬斥色彩。
这个形象的出现与当时英国的社会经济状况紧密相连。在英国资产阶级革命胜利后的17世纪,英国毛纺工业迅速发展,资本的原始积累不断扩大,资产阶级政权对内实行“圈地运动”,对外实行殖民地的掠夺政策,以便积累大量的工业资本。“约翰牛”的形象正是这个时期英国的体现这。
随着时间的推移,“约翰牛”的形象发生了耐人寻味的变化,由最初那个身强力壮、满脸横肉的中年船长想象,变成了一个年过半百、五短身材的矮胖子。于是漫画上出现的“约翰牛”,是个头戴宽边礼帽,足蹬翻口皮鞋,身穿茄克衫的绅士摸样。当年那种杀气滕滕的气概收敛不少,其原来的贬义似乎变成了褒义。”约翰牛“逐渐变成了一位饱经事故的实干家形象,他的行为成了英国的人的标准行为。这样一来,John Bull 这个成语就成了英国人或者英国的代名词了;而与之相关的 John Bullism 就指”英国精神“”英国习气“或”英国的典型性格“,John Bullist 则常指”英国迷“
英国人富于幽默感,善于自嘲,对这个绰号也就处之泰然。牛固执不开窍,也象征英国人的保守性格。
2. 英联邦
英联邦 (The Commonwealth) 是由英国和已经独立的前英国殖民地或附属国组成的联合体。第一次世界大战后,英国慑于日益高涨的殖民地民族解放运动,调整了同原英帝国其他成员之间的关系。1926 年“英帝国会议”的帝国内部关系委员会提出,英国和已经由殖民地成为自治共和国的加拿大、澳大利亚、新西兰和南非是“自由结合的英联邦的成员”,“地位平等,在内政和外交的任何方面互不隶属,唯有依靠对英王的共同效忠精神统一在一起”。1931 年,《威斯敏斯特法案》从法律上对此予以确认,英联邦正式形成。1947 年,印度、巴基斯坦各自宣布独立并加入英联邦。1949 年,印度成为共和国,选举了自己的国家元首。从此英联邦成员由需对英王效忠的原则演变为英联邦成员“接受英王为独立成员国自由联合体的象征”,英王是“英联邦的元首”。
英联邦不设权力机构,英国和各成员国互派高级专员代表大使级外交关系。
英联邦总部和常设机构均设在伦敦,其组织机构有:1. 英联邦政府首脑会议;通常两年举行一次会议。1966 年以前在伦敦举行,自 1966 年起轮流在成员国中举行,由东道国政府首脑主持。会议不通过决议,会议发表的总原则对与会国没有约束力。2. 亚太地区英联邦政府首脑会议;从 1978 年起每两年举行一次,讨论共同关心的地区性问题。3. 英联邦部长会议;包括每年举行的部长会议和不定期举行各类会议等。4. 英联邦秘书处;1965 年成立,负责成员国间的协商和交流。5、英联邦基金会;成立于 1966 年。此外,英联邦还有一些专业性组织,如英联邦议会协会、英联邦新闻联盟、英联邦广播协会、英联邦青年交流理事会、英联邦体育运动联合会和英联邦艺术协会等。
英联邦现有 53 个成员(2004 年 5 月)。每年 4 月 27 日为英联邦日。
3. 重要人物
伊丽莎白二世: 国家元首。全称为“托上帝洪恩,大不列颠及北爱尔兰联合王国以及其他领土和属地的女王、英联邦元首、基督教的保护者伊丽莎白二世”。1926 年 4 月 21 日生,为已故英王乔治六世的长女。6 岁时开始接受统治国家的教育,研读法律、历史和语言,能讲流利的西班牙语,也会法语和德语。14岁起开始参加电台广播等各种社会活动。二次大战期间,担任一些社会团体的领导职务,战后担任更多的社会职务,经常巡视英国各地。1952 年 2 月 6 日即位,1953 年 6 月 2 日加冕。女王丈夫为菲利普亲王,受封为爱丁堡公爵。生有三子一女,长子查尔斯王子受封为威尔士亲王,是英国王储。曾于 1986 年 10 月访华。

4. 行政区划
分为英格兰、威尔士、苏格兰和北爱尔兰四部分。英格兰划分为43个郡。苏格兰下设 29 个区和 3 个特别管辖区,威尔士下设22个区。北爱尔兰下设26个区。苏格兰、威尔士议会及其行政机构全面负责地方事务,外交、国防、总体经济和货币政策、就业政策以及社会保障等仍由中央政府控制。伦敦称“大伦敦”(Greater London),下设独立的32个城区(London boroughs) 和1个“金融城”(City of London)。各区议会负责各区主要事务,但与大伦敦市长及议会协同处理涉及整个伦敦的事务。
5. What are the differences between Britain and the British Isles, Great Britain, England, the United Kingdom and the British Commonwealth?
①Strictly speaking, the British Isles, Great Britain and England are all geographical names. The British Isles are made up of the two large islands—Great Britain and Ireland and hundreds of small ones. Great Britain is the largest of these islands. England is one of the three parts of Great Britain.
②The United Kingdom is a simple form for the full official name—the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. It can also be called Britain or UK.
③ The British Commonwealth is a free association of independent countries that were once colonies of Britain. It has 50 members today.
