Complete more exercises

T: Where does Neil live? He lives in a town 15 miles from London. In this sentence, we use “15 miles from London” to modify “a town”. “a distance + from someplace” or “a distance + away from someplace” means “距离某地……的”. Please complete this sentence, “I study in a school ____________ (距离5公里远的) my home.” Put this sentence into English, “我家离学校5公里远。”

T: What is special about Neil’s house? It has a beautiful garden. Neil lives in a big house with a beautiful garden. Here “have” and “with” both means “有” in Chinese, but “have” is a verb while “with” is a preposition. Please complete these two sentences. “Stephen’s home ____________ eight rooms. Stephen lives in a large house ____________ eight rooms.” Translate this sentence, “Anna住在一套有着一个漂亮起居室的公寓里。”

T: Where does Anna live? She lives in a flat in the centre of Moscow. What does the phrase “in the centre of …” mean? Do you know how to say “在市中心”? We can say “in the centre of (the) city” or “in the city centre”. Please complete this sentence, “我就读于镇中心一所学校。I study in a school ____________.” And what about this sentence, “驾车去市中心可不是个好主意。It’s not a good idea ____________.” Please pay attention to the preposition in this sentence.

T: Does Anna have her own bedroom? No, she shares a bedroom with hesister. “share something with somebody” means “与某人分享某物”. Please complete the sentence. “—Oh, no, it’s raining now. I have no umbrella with me. —Don’t worry. You can __________.”

T: Does Stephen have his own bedroom? Stephen has his own bedroom. Or, we can say “Stephen has a bedroom of his own.” “one’s own + n.” means “ n. + of one’s own.” Put the Chinese into English, “你该学会有自己的想法。”

2. 能掌握重音的朗读方法。

Teaching procedures:

Step1. Warm up

Everyday English

Step2. Revision

Revision1:

Look at this picture, there is a p______ in it. I don’t know what c_____ it’s in, but I think it’s very b________. （让学生填入所缺单词：palace, country, beautiful, 板书这些单词。）

Step3. Presentation

1. Read the words on the blackboard. 指导学生注意单词发音音量的不同。

2. Explain: Stress in a word

划分音节的方法：

元音是构成音节的主体，辅音是音节的分界线。

a. 两辅音之间不管有多少个元音，一般都是一个音节。如：bed 床，bet 打赌，seat 坐位，

b.两元音字母之间有一个辅音字母时，辅音字母归后一音节，如：stu'dent 学生，la'bour 劳动。

c.有两个辅音字母时，一个辅音字母归前一音节，一个归后一音节，如：let'ter 信，win'ter 冬天。

d.不能拆分的字母组合按字母组合划分音节。如：fa‘ther 父亲，tea’cher 教师。 

单词的发音灵魂是元音，掌握这一点就不难了。

方法是这样的：从单词的左边往右边看，以一个元音加上其左边的辅音为一个音节。如果该元音前面没有辅音，那它就是独立音节。
