Homework
Do ex 1 in page 19 in the book
Do ex 2 in your exercise book
The 4th period
Teaching Aims:
Teach grammar (The Past Participle as the adverbial and attribute)
Improve the students’ listening skills.
Difficult and Important Points:
1)Learn the grammar(The Past Participle as the Predicative & Attribute)
2)Have the Ss sum up the function of the past participle using inductive method.
Teaching Methods:
1. Inductive Method
2. Group work
Teaching Procedures:
Step I Dictation
Step II. Grammar
和现在分词及短语一样,过去分词(past participles)或过去分词短语(past participial phrases)也可以充当副词,修饰谓语动词。
过去分词短语可以表达下列四种意思:
(1)方法或活动方式,如:
● He walked up and down, lost in thought.
● I sat before the desk until after mid-night, absorbed in writing.
● Surrounded by a host of fans, the film star left the airport excitedly.
(2)原因,如:
● Greatly disappointed, some staff decided to leave the place.
● Taken by surprise, the enemy surrendered.
(3)时间,如:
● Born and bred in a turbulent age, the older generation of people experienced all sorts of hardships.
● Thrown to the floor, the boy regained his footing a few minutes later.
(4)条件,如:
● Given more time, the slow learners would have done better.
● Criticized by someone else, Tony would not have flared up like that.
除了直接修饰动词之外,过去分词或短语也可以和连词合组成短语,表示下列四种意思:
(1)由 when, whenever, while, until 等连词引导,表示“ 时间”,如:
● When asked about his previous job, Bill said he had been a motor mechanic.
● Susan seldom speaks in class until spoken to.
(2)由 where, wherever 连词引导,表示“地点”,如:
● Mosquitoes should be completely exterminated where found.
● Retirees in good health should be invited to return to work wherever needed.
(3)由 if, unless 引导,表示“条件”,如:
● If kept for too long, some medicines will lose their effectiveness.
● We have made a point of not attacking unless attacked.
(4)由 though, although, even though 连词引导,表示“让步 ”,如:
● Though warned of the danger, they still went mountaineering.
● Even though defeated for a second time, our team did not give up hope for the ultimate victory.
此外,过去分词短语还可以和介词“with”或“without”连用,具副词作用。如:
● With the water pipe choked, there wasn't any more water for use.
● Without anything left in the kitchen, the Wangs decided to eat out.
最后,过去分词短语,在适当情况下,可以有自己的主语而变成独立结构(the absolute
construction),如:
● The old man listened, his head inclined to one side
4. Studying the past participle as the attribute
过去分词作定语,在语态上,表被动;在时间上,表示动作已经发生或完成,与它所修饰的名词有逻辑上的动宾关系。过去分词作定语时,所修饰的名词在逻辑上相当于被动句中的主语,过去分词相当于谓语。
过去分词作定语表示动作在谓语动作之前发生,已经完成并具有被动意义。有时也不表示时间性。作定语的过去分词一般由及物动词变来,因为只有及物动词才有被动意义。例如: He is a teacher loved by his students. 他是个很受学生爱戴的老师。
也有用不及物动词的过去分词作定语的情况,一般作前置定语,它不表示被动意义,只表示主动意义,强调动作完成。不能像及物动词的过去分词那样放在名词后面作定语。例如: fallen leaves 落叶, retired workers 退休工人, the risen sun 升起的太阳
注意下面过去分词作定语的几种情况:
A. 单个的过去分词作定语一般放在被修饰的名词之前。例如:
We needed much more qualified workers. 我们需要更多的合格的工人。
My friend is a returned student. 我的朋友是个归国的留学生。
单个分词也可以作后置定语,用以强调动作。例如:
They decided to change the material used. 他们决定更换使用的材料。
B. 过去分词短语作定语要放在被修饰的名词后面,作后置定语,其作用相当于一个定语从句。例如:
The student dressed in white is my daughter.(=The student who is dressed in white is my daughter.)
C. 如果被修饰的词是由every/some/any/no+thing/body/one所构成的复合代词或指示代词those等时,即使一个单一的分词作形容词用,也要放在被修饰词的后面。例如:
Is there anything unsolved?
There is noting changed here since I left this town.
D. 单个过去分词前加一名词或副词,常用连字符将它们连接起来构成一个复合形容词,放在其修饰的名词前,作前置定语。分词前加的名词表示分词的动作或行为主体,所加的副词表示方式、时间、程度、性质等意义。例如:
This is a state-owned factory.
This is our school-run factory.
E. 作前置定语的某些动词的过去分词的形式与作谓语或表语的过去分词的形式往往不一样。例如:
原 形
用作定语的过去分词
用作表语或谓语的过去分词
drink
drunken
drunk
light
lighted lit
lit
melt
melten
melted
sink

Step 5 Practice
Demonstrate how to make sentences from the table, and then get a few Ss to make example sentences. Then let the Ss do this exercise in pairs. At the end get Ss to write down 5 sentences from this table in their exercise books.
Step 6 Workbook
After Ex. 1 is done orally, get the Ss to write the answers in their exercise books.
Both Exx. 2 and 3 should be done in pairs first. Then check the answers with the class. Get Ss to translate the sentences into Chinese and ask them to think if they will be able to put them back into English. Pay attention to the sentence structures.
When doing Ex. 4, warn the Ss not to do word for word translation. Special attention should be paid to the sentence patterns and word order.
Step 7 Consolidation
With a good class you can give the Ss the following phrases and get them to make up a dialogue. Write these phrases on the Bb.
I believe you’re right.
What are the problems then?
What do you think is likely to happen?
Write them up on the Bb and demonstrate with a good S how it is possible to make up a dialogue.
A: I think the company will buy more land.
B: I believe you‘re right.
A: But it isn’t likely that the manager will make a decision soon.
B: What are the problems then?
With an ordinary class, just practice the dialogue in Part 1 again.
