7、。 二、 too 是普通用词,多用于口语,语气较随便。一般用在肯定句中,放在句末。例如: Im in Row 1, too. 我也在第一排。 注意:also 和 too 一般都用于肯定句,很少用于否定句。 三、either 表示“也”时,一般只用于否定句,且置于句末。例如 : I dont know him.

10、r, take out the rubbishmake the bed, sweep the floor, stay out late, be angry with sb., take sb. for a walkclean the living room, work on, come over, do the housework, get a rideStep 2 Presentation阅读下列句子,观察问句的用法及回答。Could I go out for dinner with my friends?Sure, that should be OK.Could we get someth
11、ing to drink after the movie?No, you cant. You have a basketball game tomorrow.Could you please take the dog for a walk? OK, but I want to watch one show first.Could you please take out the rubbish? Yes, sure.Step 3 GrammarCould you(please)+ V-原形?表示委婉地提出请求1. Could you please clean your room?Yes, sur
12、e. / Of course./ Certainly./All right.2. Could you please do the dishes?Sorry, I cant. I have to do my homework.在表示请求帮助或请求允许的疑问句中,常用 could 代替 can,以表示礼貌,委婉或不确定的语气,而 can 则不具备这些语气。这种情况下不能把 could 看作can 的过去式。以上两句中用 could 是为了表示礼貌的请求。表示请求帮助或请求允许时,除了 can, could 之外,还可以用 may,句子的表达方式也各有不同,可以用不同的方式来表示同一个概念。例: C
13、ould/Can/May I use your car for a day? I wonder if I could use your car for a day? 对于、句所作允答可以各种各样,如同意可以说 Yes 或 Sure 或 Certainly,还可说 Yes, (do) please. 或 Of course. (you may/can). 或 Go ahead, please. 或Thats OK/all right; 如果不同意,可以说 Im sorry you cant. 或 Im really sorry, but I have to use it today. 要避免说
14、No, you cant. 这样显得很不礼貌。否定回答通常用委婉语气。 Do you mind if I use your car for a day? 对于句所作回答可以说 Never mind. /Not at all. 表“不介意” 。不能用 Yes. /Sure. /Of course. /Certainly.等。无论肯定还是否定应答中,要避免使用 could,要用can 或 may。因为应答须用确定的语气。而 could 在表请求的问句中是为了表示礼貌或委婉语气,用在应答中则成了不确定语气,与情理不符。所以应答中不说 Yes, you could. 或 No, you couldnt
15、. 而要说 Yes, you can. 或 Sorry. /No, you cant. Could I please use your computer? Sorry, Im going to work on it now. Well, could I watch TV? Yes, you can. Could I/you please ?表示一种有礼貌的请求或提议,其后连接原形动词,比Can you /I?语气更委婉。类似句型有: Would you like + sth. / to do sth.? May I + do sth.? Shall we + do sth.? Would yo
16、u mind + sth. /doing sth.? What / How about + sth. /doing sth.? 肯定回答有 Sure. /Of course. / Certainly. /OK. /Great. / Well. / Good idea. / I agree. 等。否定回答有 Sorry / No, you cant. 等。 Step 4 PracticeMake up dialogues using the sentences in Grammar Focus with your partner.A: Could you please take the dog

19、含义和用法有所不同。 borrow 表示“借入”,即把本来不属于自己的东西借来暂时使用,常与介词from 连用。如:You can borrow a book from the library. lend 表示“借出”,即把属于自己的东西借给别人暂时使用,常与介词 to 连用,也可以跟双宾语。如:Hes going to lend his bike to Tom. You mustnt lend others my pen. 4b Fill in the blanks in the conversation. A: I hate to _ chores.B: Well, I hate some

33、 with partner.Step 9 Language points1. It is the parents job to provide a clean and comfortable environment at home for their children.此处代词 it 仅为形式上的主语, 真正的主语是 to provide for their children。我们也可将 It is ones job (duty, ) to do something.视为一个固定的句型, 表示“做某事是某人的工作(职责等)” 。如:Its every teachers job to expla
34、in things clearly to the students.把东西给学生讲明白是每一位老师应做的事情。provide 作动词,意为“ 提供;供应”。provide sb. with sth.或 provide sth. for sb.意为“为某人提供某物”。如:The movie theater provides us with good service.电影院为我们提供了良好的服务。His school provided a house for him.他的学校为他提供了一所房子。汉译英。他们提供给他钱和衣服。They provided him with money and clot
35、hes. They provided money and clothes for him.2. And anyway, I think doing chores is not so difficult.anyway 是一个副词, 若位于句首, 其后往往会有逗号将其与句子的其他内容隔开。anyway 在此句中的作用是追加评论, 相当于汉语的“反正; 仍然; 依然”。如: Sam didnt get the job, but hes not unhappy because it didnt pay well anyway.萨姆没有得到那份工作, 但他并没有闷闷不乐, 反正薪酬也不算高。anyway
36、 还可用来表示“不管怎样; 无论如何”之意。例如 :Its just a cold. But anyway, you should still see the doctor.这只不过是感冒, 但不管怎样, 你还是应该看看医生。3. he often fell ill and his grades dropped.ill & sick相同点ill 与 sick 都可以表示“ 生病的 ”,都可作表语。如:Alice was ill / sick yesterday.不同点表示“生病”时,sick 可作定语,但 ill 通常不作定语。如:Could you help the sick girl?【运
37、用】根据句意,用 ill 或 sick 填空。(1) The driver sent the _ baby to the hospital.(2) My brother is _. I have to look after him at home.4. The earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for their future.“the+比较级+, the+比较级+”是英语中一个常用的句型结构, 表示“越, 就越 ”。如:The more he explained, the better we understood.他
38、解释得越多, 我们就理解得越透彻。Many people believe that the more a person reads, the wiser he will become.很多人相信一个人书读得越多就会变得越聪明。Step 10 ExerciseI. 根据句意及所给首字母提示,补全句中所缺单词。1.

42、用逗号或者冒号。3. 信的正文。4. 结尾:发信人对收信人的谦称或敬语。放在信的右下方。这部分要特别注意英语习惯,不可根据汉语意思写上诸如“此致敬礼” 、“祝您健康”之类的中国式的结尾语。常用的英语书信结尾语如下:写给同龄人或年长的朋友: Yours sincerely,Sincerely yours,Yours 等等。写给好朋友: Love,With love, Best wishes 等等。写给亲戚:Love,With love,Affectionately yours,Your (ever) loving son(sister 等等) 。5. 签名。签名一般在结尾语的下面一行。6. 常见
