Module 6 The World’s Cultural Heritage 教学设计说明 话题介绍 本模块的主题是“周口店北京人遗址”。周口店是位于北京西南约五十公里的一个小村庄。上世纪20年代考古学家在那里发现了史前的人类遗骨，这一发现改变了人们对中国历史的认识。那是一类未知人种的遗骨，是千万年前原始人生活在中国的第一证据。1987年12月，周口店被列为世界文化遗产。它不仅为我们提供了史前亚洲社会的重要信息，而且为我们提供了人类进化历程的证据。‎ Period 1 Introduction 本模块介绍的是“世界文化遗产”，让我们了解世界文明，珍爱文化遗产 Period 2 Reading and Vocabulary 通过阅读文章 The Amazing Caves of Zhoukoudian的学习,引出世界文化遗产这一中心话题。随后介绍了北京文化遗址处于危险中，要求我们注意保护人类文化遗址。在阅读的过程中，能正确理解阅读文章；能正确理解并运用过去分词做状语；在阅读中根据文字表面意思对其深层含义做出正确合理的推断。‎ Period 3 Grammar(1)‎ 本模块的语法项目主要学习虚拟语气的用法。虚拟语气的难度主要体现在动词时态的变化上，所以在讲解的过程中应结合具体的例句说明虚拟语气中动词的时态变化的规律。‎ Period 4 Reading and Vocabulary(2)‎ 运用本模块所学的词汇，完成书面练习；在书面表达中正确运用even though, even if, as long as, no matter等连词；能够清楚地介绍一种无形文化遗产。‎ Period 5 Grammar(2)‎ 掌握地点、条件和让步状语从句。‎ Period 6 Reading Practice ‎ 本篇文章词汇量较大，在阅读中首先要解决词汇上的障碍，准确的理解课文。同时了解中国文化遗产保护的现状。‎ Period 7 Cultural Corner 文章主要介绍了美国的一种尊重老人的做法，在阅读的过程中可以列举中国类似的做法。在阅读中注意识别新的词汇和短语。在英语学习中了解和吸收异域民族文化的精华。‎ Period 1 Introduction ‎■Goals l To know something about the classical garden in ‎Suzhou l To get some idea about the world heritage list. ‎ l To master the usage of the new words ‎■Procedures Step 1: Warming up by discussing the picture.‎ ‎1.

She wishes she hadn’t said it.‎ I wish he had got there ahead of time.‎ ‎ ‎ 表示对将来情况的虚拟 ‎ ‎ wish+从句主语+would+动词原形 I wish he would get younger and younger.‎ I wish he would be more careful.‎ ‎ ‎ 注意：表示对现在情况的虚拟时，从句的时态不根据前面谓语动词的时态变化而变化，而是依据从句的实际情况，可以表示和现在事实相反，也可以表示和当时事实相反。‎ I wish I knew the answer to the question.‎ Yesterday when the teacher asked me the question, I couldn’t answer it. Then I wished I knew the answer.‎ ‎ 2. 在suggest （建议）、demand（要求）、order（命令）、insist （坚持）、request （请求）、desire （要求）、recommend （建议、推荐）、propose（建议、提议）、require （要求）等动词后面的宾语从句中，谓语动词形式通常用动词原形（美通用）或“should＋动词原形”（英国通用）引导虚拟语气，其基本句式为： ‎ ‎（should） do …‎ 主语+ suggest/suggested….. that sb. （should） be done…‎ ‎（should） not do …‎ I suggested that we should form a spare time study group.‎ I demand that he answer me at once.‎ Doctor Li insisted that the patient should stay in bed for two weeks.‎ Mr. Wang ordered that we（should） start out immediately.‎ ‎ 特别注意：‎ ‎1. suggest 作“暗示”，“说明”解时，从句谓语动词用陈述语气。‎ 如：His accent suggests that he comes from Shanghai.‎ ‎2. insist 表坚持的是事实时，从句谓语动词用陈述语气 如：He insisted that we （should） discuss the question at once. （虚拟） ‎ He insisted that he had finished his homework and handed it in. （事实） ‎ ‎3. had hoped +that 从句 这种句型表示一种过去未实现的愿望, 从句谓语动词要用“would＋动词原形”。‎ 如：I had hoped that Jane would become a doctor, but she wasn’t good enough at science.‎ Mike had hoped that his father would answer his letter.‎ ‎ II. 虚拟语气在其它名词性从句中的用法：‎ 在It is necessary/important/strange/suggested/ordered/proposed/requested/decided/a pity…＋主语从句 的结构中，that引导的主语从句常用虚拟语气，用should + do或should＋have done形式。‎ It’s necessary that he should go there at once.‎ It’s strange that she should have failed in the exam.‎ It’s a great pity that he should be so proud.‎ It's requested that Comrade Li should sing a song.‎ It’s necessary that you should clean the office after work.‎ It’s very important that we should ask advice of other people about our work.‎ It’s strange that he should have left without saying goodbye.‎ 在suggestion, order, plan, idea 等后的表语从句、同位语从句用虚拟语气。‎ My suggestion is that we should go there on Sunday.‎ My idea is that we should send a comrade to help him.‎ His order that we finish the work in half an hour is hard to accept.‎ ‎ III. 虚拟语气在状语从句中的用法：‎ ‎1. as if （though ）引起的状语从句（谓语形式与wish 后的宾语从句谓语形式相同）。‎ The boy talks as if he were a man.‎ They talked as if they had been friends for years.‎ Xiao Liu speaks English so well as if he had studied English in England.‎ He spoke to me loudly as if I were deaf.‎ as if 也可引导表语从句，放在seem，look 等系动词后，如果是可以实现的事，也可用陈述语气．‎ It seems as if it were /was spring already.‎ It looks as if it were going to rain.‎ He looks as if he were ill.‎ ‎2. 由in order that, so that 引导的状语从句中的谓语动词常用may/might/can/could＋动词原形，来表示虚拟语气。‎ Let’s hand in the exercises earlier so that the teacher may have time to correct them.‎ I live so that others may live better .自己活着为的是使别人活得更好．‎ She stayed at home for a few days so that she might take care of her mother.‎ She took a taxi so that she could get there in time.‎ ‎ IV. 使用虚拟语气常见的其它句型: ‎ ‎1、“would rather ”与“had rather”表希望，后跟从句用虚拟语气，一般用动词的过去时态。‎ I would rather you didn’t trouble him.‎ I would rather we played basketball.‎ I would rather you came tomorrow.‎ ‎2、It is/was time （high time）+主语+ 动词过去式/should（不能省略）+动词原形。表示该干什么了，而没有干。‎ It’s time you went to bed.‎ It’s time she washed that dress.‎ ‎－I’m getting tired. ‎ ‎－it’s time we went home. 我累了我们该回家了。‎ It’s time you should have a class.‎ Step 2: 巩固练习 ‎1.

And China has done excellent work in protecting world heritage. But do you know that the world heritage includes tangible heritage and intangible heritage? What is the tangible heritage? What is the intangible heritage? You can discuss the questions with your partner.‎ If you want to know the answers, let’s start to learn the passage.‎ Step 2: Before you read Please go over the word list for this module, paying attention to the pronunciation of the word, the relationship between its pronunciation and its spelling. Now let us read the words together.‎ Step 3: While you read While you are reading the passage underline the new words and phrase, pay attention to the usage of them.‎ Step 4: After you read Turn to page 78, and finish activity 1. ‎ For reference ‎1. “Tangible” (=“touchable”) heritage consists of buildings and objects such as paintings; “Intangible” (=“untouchable”) heritage means traditional songs and poems, people who can perform traditional works, languages and music.‎ ‎2.

Kunqu opera.‎ Period 5 Grammar(2)--Adverbial clauses of Place, Condition and Concession ‎■Goal To learn the adverbial clauses of place, condition and concession ‎ ‎■Procedures Step 1: adverbial clauses of place, condition and concession 状语从句在句中作状语，修饰主句中的动词、形容词或副词等。状语从句放在主句之前时，常用逗号分开；放在主句之后，一般不用逗号。状语从句按其意义和作用可分为时间、原因、条件、让步、地点、目的、结果、方式、比较等九种。本单元主要熟悉掌握地点、条件和让步状语从句。‎ ‎1.地点状语从句 1）地点状语从句常由where和wherever引导，通常可置于主句之前或之后。。 I found the books where I left them. Make a mark where you have any questions. We should go where(ver) we are most needed. Where there is a will, there is a way. ‎ ‎ Where there is water, there is life. 2）where引导的状语从句和where引导的定语从句常可转换，判断它属于哪类从句的关键是看where前面有没有被修饰的、表示地点的先行词。试比较： Stand where you are! （状语从句） Stand at the place where you are! （定语从句） Bamboo grows best where it’s wet and rainy. （状语从句） Bamboo grows best in places where it’s wet and rainy. （定语从句）‎ ‎2.条件状语从句 条件句可分为真实条件句和非真实条件句，非真实条件句在虚拟语气中有详细表述，这里只讨论真实条件句。引导条件句常用的有if, unless, as(so) long as, in case等，when, once, suppose (that) 或supposing (that)，on condition that 也可引导表示条件的从句。条件状语从句和时间状语从句一样，表示将来要用一般现在时。例如： The bell is rung if there is a fire. We won’t let you in unless you show your pass. You may use my bike as/so long as you return it before Friday. In case anything important happens, please call me up. Turn off the switch when anything goes wrong. Once you taste the noodles, you’ll never forget their delicious flavour. Suppose/Supposing (that) you fail again this time, what will you do? He agreed to lend him the money on condition that he paid back three times more money in three months’ time. 3.让步状语从句 1）通常由though, although, even/though引导，主句中不能用but，但可用yet。如： He didn’t light the fire though/although it was cold. Although/though he is quite old, (yet) he still tries to learn more. I’ll try to finish the work myself even if/though it takes me days. 2）whatever, whoever, whichever, whenever, wherever, however 引导状语从句时，分别相当于no matter what/who/which/when/where/how引导的从句，意为“无论……”。例如： Whatever/No matter what he said, no one believed him. Whoever/No matter who breaks the law, he will be punished. Whichever/No matter which job you take, you should try to do well in it. Whenever/No matter when I need his help, he comes immediately. Wherever/No matter where you go, never forget your motherland. However/No matter how busy he was, he would watch TV sports news every night. 注意whatever, whoever, whichever又可引导名词性从句，注意区别。可参阅本章第一节。 3）as引导让步状语从句要倒装，其结构通常是“n./adj./adv. + as + 主语+谓语(+其它成分)，主句”，可转换成though/although从句。 Child as he is, he knows a lot. （注意：名词前不用冠词） =Although/Though he is a child, he knows a lot. Difficult as the task was, they managed to finish it in time. =Although/Though the task was difficult, they managed to finish it in time. Much as I like it, I will not buy it. =Although/Though I like it much, I will not buy it. 偶尔也可见用动词提前的让步状语从句。例如： ‎ ‎ Try as he may, he can hardly do better than she. =Although/Though he may try, he can hardly do better than she. 4）whether…or也可引导让步状语从句，相当于“no matter whether…or”。 Whether you come in winter or in summer, you will find it a nice place. =No matter whether you come in winter or in summer, you will find it a nice place.‎ Step 2: 高考链接 ‎1. ____ he has limited technical knowledge, the old worker has a lot of experience.
