unit8 Reading — The Last Leaf-讲义与练习
课时2 译林版初中英语九年级上册 (pp.103-106)
第一部分 知识点讲义
一、学习目标
1. 能够梳理 The Last Leaf 的故事情节，说出 Jhnsy、Sue、Behrman 三个人物的主要事迹。
2. 能够掌握并运用本课核心词汇：masterpiece、chance、fever、cunt、leaf (pl. leaves)、branch、mdel、sense、remain、beating rain、wild wind 等。
3. 能够运用 “surprise ending(意外结局)” 阅读策略重读故事，从新的角度理解故事细节。
4. 能够理解故事的主题——希望与爱的力量，并有条理地谈论自己印象深刻的情节。
二、重点
• 故事情节的发展脉络与意外结局：Behrman 在寒夜画叶，那片叶子是他的杰作。
• 核心词汇与短语：masterpiece、chance、fever、cunt、leaf/leaves、branch、mdel、sense、remain、beating rain、wild wind。
• 重点句型：When the last leaf falls, I must g t. / It desn’t make any sense. / She will die unless the last leaf stays n the tree?
• unless 引导条件句在故事语境中的理解与运用。
三、难点
• 理解 “the last leaf” 的象征意义以及 surprise ending 如何让前文细节有了新的意义。
• unless 引导条件句中从句的时态(用一般现在时表示将来)。
• leaf 的不规则复数 leaves 及类似以 -f/-fe 结尾名词的复数变化。
四、字词与词汇
记一记：drp ff 落下 / get better 好转 / burn with a fever 发着高烧 / make any sense 有道理(常用于否定句) / have t d with 与……有关。
五、语法与句型
要点1 unless 引导的条件句：unless 意为 “如果不；除非”，相当于 if ... nt；当主句为一般将来时(或祈使句)时，unless/if 引导的条件句用一般现在时表示将来。
结构：主句 + unless + 从句(一般现在时) ＝ 主句 + if + 从句(否定式)
教材例句：
• “She will die unless the last leaf stays n the tree?” Old Behrman cried.
• If peple dn’t want t live, I can’t d much fr them.
• Yu wn’t knw what happens unless yu read t the end f the stry.(＝ ... if yu dn’t read t the end f the stry.)
要点2 本课常用口语句型：
• have a (small/big) chance 有(很小/很大)的可能：She has a very small chance.
• It desn’t make any sense. 这毫无道理。(make sense 常用于否定句、疑问句)
• What des ... have t d with ……与……有什么关系？：What des an ld tree have t d with yu?
• It is + adj. + t d sth.(it 作形式主语)：It is wrng t want t die.

七、知识要点
要点1 surprise ending(意外结局)阅读策略
【概念】意外结局能改变读者对整个故事的看法，让读者以新的眼光欣赏故事的细节，使故事在读者记忆中停留更久。
【教材依据】教材 TIP 原文：A surprise ending can change the readers’ view f an entire stry and allw them t enjy the details f it in a new light. This ften makes the stry last lnger in the readers’ memry. 课文 C 部分也指出：The charm f “The Last Leaf” lies in its surprise ending. 故事中有些部分 “只有知道了结局才有意义”。
【应用】第一步：初读时留意 “伏笔”，如 Didn’t yu ever wnder why it never mved when the wind was blwing?；第二步：读到结局后回想前文，理解细节的新意义；第三步：体会人物的牺牲与故事主题(hpe、lve)。
要点2 “数叶子” 情节与悬念设置
【概念】Jhnsy 把最后一片叶子与自己的生命联系在一起，倒数落叶制造悬念，推动情节发展，也引出 Behrman 的出场。
【教材依据】“Eight, seven ... six ... ” / “Only five are left nw.” / “When the last leaf falls, I must g t.”
【应用】阅读时抓住数字线索(8→7→6→5)，预测故事走向；体会作者的铺垫手法。
要点3 unless 条件句的语用功能
【概念】unless 引导的条件句在故事中既表现 Jhnsy 的绝望，也表现 Behrman 的震惊与关切。
【教材依据】“She will die unless the last leaf stays n the tree?” Old Behrman cried. “Are there such fls?”
【应用】注意从句用一般现在时表示将来(stays，不用 will stay)；进行 unless 与 if ... nt 的句型转换。
要点4 口语句型的交际功能
【概念】“It desn’t make any sense.” 表示 “这毫无道理”；“What des an ld tree have t d with yu?” 表示 “老树与你何干？”，都是口语中表达不解与关切的常用句。
【教材依据】Sue 听后十分生气：There was anger in her vice. “It desn’t make any sense. What des an ld tree have t d with yu?”
【应用】have t d with 表示 “与……有关”；make sense 多用于否定句和疑问句。
要点5 伏笔与铺垫
【概念】作者预先埋下的细节为结局服务：叶子在狂风中一动不动、医生说 “如果人们不想活，我也无能为力”。
【教材依据】Didn’t yu ever wnder why it never mved when the wind was blwing? / “If peple dn’t want t live, I can’t d much fr them.”
【应用】读到结局后回头找出伏笔，说说它们如何暗示真相——这正是 surprise ending 故事 “值得重读” 的原因。
