关键词:教学改革;趣味型教学方法;激发学习兴趣;提高教学质量
在国内,由于普通高中扩招、规模不断扩大,造成职业学校生源减少,招生困难,生源 质量下降,职业学校学生英语基础非常薄弱,学习兴趣不够浓厚等诸多问题。而随着我国对 外开放步伐的加快,对外交流、合作日益增加,作为对外交流的语言工具职业英语教育,将 面临着极大的挑战。在职业教育中存在的问题也非常突出,主要表现在以下几个方面:第一 ,学生学习英语基础差,自我约束、自我控制能力不强,心理状态不佳;第二,学生学习兴 趣低,只是应付完成作业和考试;第三,教学方法过于陈旧,传统的填鸭式教学与现有的生 源状况及社会用人发展趋势极不适应。学习需要兴趣,学习英语更需要兴趣,提高学生学习的积极性和主动性,激发学生的学习兴趣,使之成为学习英语的动力,正是趣味型教学方法 研究的出发点。
趣味型教学方法的核心就是要激发学生学习英语的兴趣,使学生感到课堂教学趣味十足 ,做到寓教于乐,从而达到提高教学质量的目的,作者根据几年教学实践及理论积累,就趣 味型英语教学的方法,提出见解,以此来深化我们的教学改革,使我们的教学更具有特色, 培养实用人才满足社会需要。
一、采用趣味型英语教学方法的意义
传统的英语课堂教学模式一般是:教读生词、带读课文、解释课文、做笔头练习。这一 过程教师讲的多,学生练的少,无形中把着眼点放到了精讲语法和死记硬背方面,很多学生 在枯燥乏味的气氛中被老师“灌”一节课后,再无奈地领受作业。学生不仅感到乏味、无趣 味,而且学习动力不足、效率下降。英语教学的重点应该是培养学生的语言交际能力,应该 通过大量实践来实现,趣味的源泉也正来源于实践。兴趣是学习英语的必要条件,是学习英 语的最重要、最积极的因素,激发与巩固学生学习英语的兴趣是提高英语教学质量的关键。 因此教师应从激发学生学习英语兴趣入手,抓住兴趣这一主线,提高教学中的趣味,积极地 进行教学改革,主动引导学生进行趣味型实践活动,运用有效手段点燃学生学习英语的'兴趣 之火,这就是采用趣味型英语教学方法的意义所在。
二、趣味型学习者的一般特征
趣味型学习者对英语文化有着强烈的兴趣,他们对考试有点不以为然,对感兴趣的题材 他们做很多额外的阅读和练习,并以此为乐,他们自认自己的语感很好,在听、说、读、写 全面发展上也很有潜力。他们的动力是“有意思”,而不是“有意义”。他们不是被功利的 目的驱使,而是沉溺在英语的世界中寻求、探索。培养学习兴趣是趣味性教学方法实施的关 键,兴趣是最好的老师,是动机产生的主观原因,是战胜困难的法宝,利用学生心理上的成 熟性、学习上的能动性、思维上的积极性,让学生处于一种积极的接受状态才能收到较好的 效果。掌握了学生英语学习的心理、学习风格、学习特征,教师在教学内容和教学方法上就 有针对性、灵活性。引导学生主动参与、亲自实践、独立思考、合作探索,充分发挥学生的 内在潜力和优势。教师还要创设宽松、和谐的教学环境和课堂气氛,让学生在这样的氛围中 心情舒畅、思维活跃,使个人倾向得以充分发展,这样学生既有了学习兴趣,又有了良好的 自主学习习惯。只有真正认识到趣味型学习者的一般特征,才能把趣味型英语教学方法运用 、贯彻到教学实践中,进而收到良好的教学效果。
三、合理运用趣味型英语教学方法,提高教学质量
合理运用趣味教学方法是培养学生学习英语兴趣的有效途径,用以达到提高教学质量的 目的。趣味教学就是以引导学生学习兴趣为主导,在教学中穿插一些生动的英语故事情节、幽默的英语笑话、国外的风土人情等内容,使枯燥的英语学习变得生动、活泼、有活力,逐 渐形成浓厚的学习氛围,培养学生学习兴趣,使学生真正掌握教学大纲所要求掌握的知识。
1、运用现代化的教学手段,实现图文并茂的效果
现代化的教学设施为英语教学提供了先进的技术支持,合理的运用多媒体声像教学设施 既可以做到有直观的感性认识,又可以加上有趣味的理性讲解,不仅做到直观、趣味,而且 使学生易于接受和掌握,进而改变了传统的课堂枯燥无味的环境,使学生对学习英语产生浓 厚的兴趣。
2、重视每一节课的开端,活跃课堂气氛
职业学校的英语教材一般都与实际生活密切结合的。利用实际生活中最时尚,学生最感 兴趣的题材进行导入,把学生的兴趣带动起来,为每一节课提供、创造良好的开端,激发出 学生听课的热情。例如,开始上课时播放适合于本节课的流行歌曲,或展示几幅明星的照片 ,或有趣的实物,从这些有趣、时尚、学生喜闻乐见、与教学有关的题材入手,使学生处于 兴奋状态,他就会有兴趣地翻开课本,在兴奋之余认真听课进而学到知识。
3、充分创设喜悦的成功机会,激发学习兴趣
所谓成功的喜悦是属于情感范畴,是指个体达到预定目标的一种愉快感情体验。情感是 人们对客观事物是否符合人的需要而产生的。能使人感到轻松愉快了,便能激发学习兴趣, 特别是在英语的教学中能够极大的增强学生的学习信心。因此,在英语教学中,要经常运用 赏识教育的思想,针对每一个不同学生的实际水平,因材施教,为每一名学生创设成功的机 会,使他们每个人都能够得到这种成功的喜悦,从而激发学习兴趣,调动其学习的积极性。
4、在培养口语交际能力中激发学习兴趣
英语是一门实践性很强的学科,不宜作为专业性很强的技术理论学科去对待,它是人们 用来表达和交流思想的工具。只有把英语当作一门实践课来上,才能真正把英语当做工具来 使用。所以在英语教学时,以提高学生的语言能力和运用英语进行实际交际能力为宗旨,采 用以学生为主题的教学方法,力求教学过程交际化,这样才能为激发学生学习兴趣创造有利 条件。众所周知,中国学生学习英语的主要困难之一,就是缺乏英语的语言环境,因此,教 师应经常运用英语组织教学加大学生英语口语的输入量,为创设语言环境、提高学生听说能 力和教学过程交际化提供保证。
5、留趣味型的英语作业
根据学生英语学习的心理和特征,采取主动引导学生主动参与、亲自实践原则,课后让 学生完成有趣味的英语作业,达到巩固所学知识的目的。例如,学唱一首英文歌曲,摘抄和 欣赏英文名言警句、诗歌、小幽默,为某个商品设计一句英文广告词,玩英语游戏,看一部 你感兴趣的英文原版片,收集几个你喜爱的明星或卡通人物的英文名字等等。
总之,提高学生学习英语的兴趣是英语教师成功教学必不可少的重要因素,而趣味英语 教学方法的具体操作方法可以有许多种,或各种方法的组合,仁者见仁,智者见智。要探索 出适合自己、适合学生的趣味英语教学方法,用以有效激发学生学习兴趣,从而提高教学水平。
四、结束语
英语教学既是一门科学,又是一门艺术,随着我国的进一步对外开放,作为对外交流的 语言工具,英语交际能力的培养是职业学校英语教育的重点,采用趣味型英语教学方法来有 效激发学生学习英语的兴趣,对提高我们的教学水平、提高教学质量、培养应用型人才都有 着重要的意义,而对趣味英语教学法的研究、对英语教学改革的深入也有着关键、积极的现 实意义。

名词
分类说明
名词是英语中的一种实词,用来表示人或事物名称。根据名词的意义和使用范围,可将名词分为普通名词和专有名词。
普通名词就是用来表示一般事物的名称的词,如:desk,dog,milk,bread。根据普通名词是否可数,又可分为可数名词和不可数名词。可数名词可细分为个体名词(如:man,woman)和集合名词(如:class,family,audience);不可数名词也可细分为物质名词(如:water,air)和抽象名词(如:pronunciation,revolution)。
可数名词有单、复数的变化,可用不定冠词和数词修饰,在学习中必须掌握名词单、复数规则及不规则的变化形式;集合名词既可作为整体,用作单数,也可作为个体而用复数形式,因此在集合名词充当句子的主语时,需特别注意后面谓语动词的形式。
不可数名词没有单、复数形式的变化,一般也不能用不定冠词或数词修饰。但有些不可数名词可转化为可数名词,意义却不同,如:paper(纸)一papers(试卷、报纸、文件),water(水)一waters(江、河、湖泊中的水或水域),work(工作)一works(著作、工厂),air(空气)一airs(神气、架子、姿态),tea(茶)一teas(茶叶种类),wind(风)一winds(一阵阵的风);有些抽象名词也可具体化,其前面必须用不定冠词修饰.如:cold(冷)一have a cold(感冒),look(swim,rest…)一have a look(swim,rest…)。
专有名词是指人、地点、单位、团体、书报、杂志、产品等特有的名称。它们一般没有人称和数的变化,也不用冠词修饰。但含有普通名词的专有名词、特指某个历史时期的专有名词或具有某方面特征的专有名词可用冠词修饰,如:Lei Feng-a Lei Feng in our class,America-the United States of America,China-the China you see today。
名词在句子中可作主语、宾语、表语、补足语、定语和状语。作主语、宾语、表语及补足语时,都用普通格。而当用作定语时,表示中心词的材料、性质、用途、类别等时用普通格;表示名词间的所属关系时,用所有格。
普通格作定语又分三种情况:
1.名词一般用单数形式;
2.clothes,goods,parents,sports等名词一般要用复数形式;
3.man,woman修饰单数名词时,用单数形式,修饰复数名词时要用复数形式。
所有格作定语时,也有三种情况:
1.名词+ -S,一般表示有生命的名词,但现代英语中的时间、地点名词也可有这种用法;
2.of+名词,一般表示没有生命的名词;
3.of+名词+ -’S一般表示有生命的名词。
目前高考对名词的考查,纯语法方面的问题已经减少了,而主要考查名词的意义辨析以及名词跟其它词的搭配关系。如:“I don’t think it’s my _______that the TV blew up.I just turned it off,that’s a11.”said the boy.的选项A.error B.mistake C.fault D.duty就是考查词汇辨析;如:Perhaps we need to clear away these books to make ________ for our new students.中的选项A.place B.area C.space D.room就要根据与动词的搭配关系来确定。
因此,考生在了解词汇方面知识的同时,特别要注意名词的意义辨析、名词跟其它词的搭配关系这两方面的问题。

1. 名词
名词可以分为专有名词和普通名词,专有名词是某个(些)人,地方,机构等专有的名称,如Beijing,China等。普通名词是一类人或东西或是一个抽象概念的名词,如:book,sadness等。普通名词又可分为下面四类:
1)个体名词:表示某类人或东西中的个体,如:gun。
2)集体名词:表示若干个个体组成的集合体,如:family。
3)物质名词:表示无法分为个体的实物,如:air。
4)抽象名词:表示动作、状态、品质、感情等抽象概念,如:work。
个体名词和集体名词可以用数目来计算,称为可数名词,物质名词和抽象名词一般无法用数目计算,称为不可数名词。归纳一下,名词的分类可以下图表示:

英语中有些名词可以加“'s”来表示所有关系,带这种词尾的名词形式称为该名词的所有格,如:a teacher's book。名词所有格的规则如下:
1) 单数名词词尾加“'s”,复数名词词尾没有s,也要加“'s”,如the boy's bag 男孩的书包,men's room 男厕所。
2) 若名词已有复数词尾-s ,只加“ ' ”,如:the workers' struggle 工人的斗争。
3) 凡不能加“'s”的名词,都可以用“名词+of +名词”的结构来表示所有关系,如:the title of the song 歌的名字。
4) 在表示店铺或教堂的名字或某人的家时,名词所有格的后面常常不出现它所修饰的名词,如:the barber's 理发店。
5) 如果两个名词并列,并且分别有's,则表示“分别有”;只有一个's,则表示'共有'。例如:
John's and Mary's rooms(两间) John and Mary's room(一间)
6) 复合名词或短语,'s 加在最后一个词的词尾。例如:a month or two's absence

3. 代词
代词是代替名词的词类。大多数代词具有名词和形容词的功能。英语中的代词,按其意义、特征及在句中的作用分为:人称代词、物主代词、指示代词、自身代词、相互代词、疑问代词、关系代词和不定代词八种。
一、人称代词是表示“我”、“你”、“他”、“她”、“它”、“我们”、“你们”、“他们”的词。人称代词有人称、数和格的变化,见下表:
数 单数 复数
格 主格 宾格 主格 宾格
第一人称 I me we us
第二人称 you you you you
第三人称 he him they them
she her they them
it it they them
例如:He is my friend. 他是我的朋友。
It's me. 是我。
二、物主代词是表示所有关系的代词,也可叫做代词所有格。物主代词分形容性物主代词和名词性物主代词两种,其人物和数的变化见下表。
数 单数 复数
人称 第一人称 第二人称 第三人称 第一人称 第二人称 第三人称
形容词性物主代词 my your his/her/its our your their
名词性物主代词 mine yours his/hers/its ours yours theirs
例如: I like his car. 我喜欢他的小汽车。
Our school is here,and theirs is there. 我们的学校在这儿,他们的在那儿。
三、指示代词表示“那个”、“这个”、“这些”、“那些”等指示概念的代词。指示代词有this,that,these,those等。
例如:That is a good idea. 那是个好主意。
四、表示“我自己”、“你自己”、“他自己”、“我们自己”、“你们自己”和“他们自己”等的代词,叫做自身代词,也称为
“反身代词”。
例如:She was talking to herself. 她自言自语。
五、表示相互关系的代词叫相互代词,有each other 和one another两组,但在运用中,这两组词没什么大的区别。
例如:They love each other. 他们彼此相爱。
六、不是指明代替任何特定名词的代词叫做不定代词。常见的不定代词有a11,both,each,every等,以及含有some-,any-,no-等的合成代词,如anybody, something,no one。这些不定代词大都可以代替名词和形容词,在句中作主语、宾语、表语和定语,但none和由some,any,no等构成的复合不定代词只能作主语、宾语或表语;every和no只能作定语。
例如:--- Do you have a car? --你有一辆小汽车吗?
--- Yes,I have one. --是的,我有一辆。
--- I don't know any of them. 他们,我一个也不认识。
七、疑问代词有who,whom,whose,what和which等。在句子中用来构成特殊疑问句。疑问代词都可用作连接代词,引导名词性从句(主语从句、宾语从句和表语从句)
例如:Tell me who he is. 告诉我他是谁。
八、关系代词有who,whom,whose,that,which,as等,可用作引导从句的关联词。它们在定语从句中可作主语、
表语、宾语、定语等;另一方面它们又代表主句中为定语从句所修饰的那个名词或代词(先行词)。
例如:He is the man whom you have been looking for. 他就是你要找的那个人。
3.1 人称代词的用法
1)人称代词的主格在句子中作主语或主语补语。例如:
John waited a while but eventually he went home. 约翰等了一会儿,最后他回家了。
John hoped the passenger would be Mary and indeed it was she. 约翰希望那位乘客是玛丽,还真是她。
说明:在复合句中,如果主句和从句主语相同,代词主语要用在从句中,名词主语用在主句中。例如:
When he arrived, John went straight to the bank. 约翰一到就直接去银行了。
2)人称代词的宾格在句子中作宾语或介词宾语,但在口语中也能作主语补语,第一人称在省略句中,还可以作主语。
例如: I saw her with them, at least, I thought it was her. 我看到她和他们在一起,至少我认为是她。(her做宾语,them做介词宾语,her做主语补语)
a. -- Who broke the vase? --谁打碎了花瓶?
b. -- Me. --我。(me做主语补语= It's me.)
说明:在上面两例句中,her和me分别作主语补语。现代英语中多用宾格,在正式文体中这里应为she和I。
3.2 人称代词之主、宾格的替换
1) 宾格代替主格
a.在简短对话中,当人称代词单独使用或在not 后,多用宾语。
---- I like English. --我喜欢英语。
---- Me too. --我也喜欢。
---- Have more wine? --再来点酒喝吗?
---- Not me. --我可不要了。
b.在表示比较的非正式的文体中,常用宾格代替主格。 但如果比较状语的谓语保留,则主语只能用主格。
He is taller than I/me.
He is taller than I am.
2) 主格代替宾格
a. 在介词but,except 后,有时可用主格代替宾格。
b. 在电话用语中常用主格。
---- I wish to speak to Mary. --我想和玛丽通话。
---- This is she. --我就是玛丽。
注意:在动词be 或to be 后的人称代词视其前面的名词或代词而定。
I thought it was she. 我以为是她。(主格----主格)
I thought it to be her. (宾格----宾格)
I was taken to be she. 我被当成了她。 (主格----主格)
They took me to be her. 他们把我当成了她。 (宾格----宾格)
3.3 代词的指代问题
1)不定代词 anybody,everybody,nobody,anyone, someone, everyone,no one, 及whoever和person在正式场合使用时,可用he, his, him代替。
例如: Nobody came, did he? 谁也?

名词分为专有名词(Proper Nouns)和普通名词 (Common Nouns),专有名词是某个(些)人、地方、机构等专有的名称,如Beijing,China等。普通名词是一类人或东西或是一个抽象概念的名词,如:book,sadness等。普通名词又可分为下面四类:
1)个体名词(Individual Nouns):表示某类人或东西中的个体,如:gun。
2)集体名词(Collective Nouns):表示若干个个体组成的集合体,如:family。
3)物质名词(Material Nouns):表示无法分为个体的实物,如:air。
4)抽象名词(Abstract Nouns):表示动作、状态、品质、感情等抽象概念,如:work。
个体名词和集体名词可以用数目来计算,称为可数名词(Countable Nouns),物质名词和抽象名词一般无法用数目计算,称为不可数名词(Uncountable Nouns)。
一、普通名词
普通名词指一类人或事物的名称。英语中普通名词分为可数名词和不可数名词。
可数名词一般有单、复数两种形式。如a/one child,ten children。而不可数名词一般只有一种形式。如cash(现金)。不可数名词之前不可直接用泛指限定词和数词。不可数名词可与some一起用。如:some money,some water。也可与the一起用:the information(这信息)。
(一)可数名词及其复数形式
(1)可数名词的复数形式一般由词尾加-s或-es构成
(2)可数名词复数形式的不规则构成法
1) 以y结尾的专有名词,或元音字母+y 结尾的名词变复数时,直接加s变复数:
如: two Marys the Henrys
monkey---monkeys holiday---holidays
比较: 层楼:storey ---storeys story---stories
2) 以o 结尾的名词,变复数时:
a. 加s,如: photo---photos piano---pianos
radio---radios zoo---zoos;
b. 加es,如:potato--potatoes tomato--tomatoes
c. 均可,如:zero---zeros / zeroes
3) 以f或fe 结尾的名词变复数时:
a. 加s,如: belief---beliefs roof---roofs
safe---safes gulf---gulfs;
b. 去f,fe 加ves,如:half---halves
knife---knives leaf---leaves wolf---wolves
wife---wives life---lives thief---thieves;
c. 均可,如: handkerchief:
handkerchiefs / handkerchieves
(二)可数名词和不可数名词
英语中的绝大多数名词既可以用作可数名词也可以用作不可数名词。
1.可数名词
可数名词一般可以分成以下二类:
第一类:如bike,desk, factory等,这类名词占可数名词的多数。以bike为例:
There are fifty bikes at this shop.这家商店有50辆自行车。
第二类:如clothes等,本身表示复数形式。以clothes为例:
She cares for nice clothes.她爱好穿着。
2.不可数名词
不可数名词的用法特征主要有以下几种:
(1)不带冠词的单数形式需用动词单数作谓语。例如:
Knowledge is power.知识就是力量。
(2)由much,little等词修饰。例如:
They have saved much money for future use.他们存了很多钱以备未来使用。
(3)与表示单位的量词如a piece of等连用。例如:
Go and fetch me a piece of chalk.给我去拿一支粉笔。
要十分注意的是:不可数名词不能与不定冠词或数词直接用在一起。如不能说a good news, an advice, a hard work等。
不可数名词可以与量词使用构成不同的词组:
如: a piec e of paper 一张纸 a drop of water 一滴水
a 1oaf of bread 一条面包 a bag of money 一袋钱
a bottle of milk 一瓶牛奶 a pair of shoes 一双鞋
二、专有名词
专有名词用来指具体的人、地点、日子或物体的专有名称。其特点是:第一个字母大写,通常不与冠词连用,无复数形式。
(一)人名
英美人的姓名与中国人的恰恰相反,姓在后面,名在前面,姓名前通常不用冠词。例如:
Mary Smith , George Washington。
(1)一般熟人间通常用名称呼。例如:
How’s John getting on? 约翰近来好吗?
(2)在不熟悉人之间或表示礼貌时,常把姓和称谓连用。例如:
Would you please tell Dr. Smith to come to the office? 请你告诉史密斯博士到办公室来一次好吗?
(3)姓氏复数前加定冠词可表示全家人。例如:
The Turners have gone to America.特纳一家人去美国了。
(二)地名
(1)大部分单数形式的地名不用定冠词。例如:
Asia, America , China , London , Shanghai
(2)大部分单数形式的湖、岛、山名前不加定冠词。例如:.
Silver Lake;Mount Tai
(3)山脉、群岛、海洋、河流、运河、海湾、海峡、半岛、沙漠名前一般加定冠词。例如:
the Pacific , the English Channel , the Sahara
(三)日期名
(1)节日名前通常不用冠词。例如:
Christmas , National Day
(2)星期名前通常不用冠词。例如:
Sunday , Tuesday
(3)月份名前通常不用冠词。例如:
April , December
三、名词所有格
名词所有格是指一个名词与另一个名词之间存在所有关系时所用的形式。其构成有两种:一种是由名词末尾加’s构成;另一种由介词of加名词构成。前者多用来表示有生命的东西;后者多用来表示无生命的东西。例如:
Children’s Palace 少年宫
Tom’s bike 汤姆的自行车
the title of the book 书名
the legs of the table 桌子的腿
(一)所有格形式的构成
(1)单数名词后加’s,其读音与名词复数结尾的读音相同。例如:
the girl’s father 女孩的父亲
(2)以s结尾的复数名词后加’。例如:
two hours’ walk 两个小时的步行
(3)不以s结尾的复数名词后加’s。例如:
the children’s holiday 孩子们的节日
(4)以s结尾的名词或人名,可以加’s,也可加’号。例如:
Thomas’s brother 托马斯的兄弟
the boss’s handwriting 老板的书写
(5)表示各自的所有关系,不是共有的,要分别在各个名词末尾加’s,如:
John’s and Mary’s rooms 约翰和玛丽各人的房间
若表示共有的,则在最后一个名词的末尾加’s,如:
John and Mary’s room 约翰和玛丽合住的房间
(二)“’s”所有格的用法
’s所有格常表示有生命的东西,但也可表示无生命的东西。例如:
(1)表示时间:
today’s newspaper 今天的报纸
(2)表示自然现象:
the moon’s rays 月光
(3)表示国家、城市、机构:
……..Shanghai’s industry 上海的工业
(4)表示度量衡及价值:
..twenty dollars’ value 20美元的价值
..five miles’ distance 5英里的距离
(三)“’s”和of所有格所表示的关系
1.表示所有关系
可分为可分割的所有关系和不可分割的所有关系。可分割的所有关系通常指身外之物,一般不可用of表示。例如:
John’s pen(John has a pen)约翰的钢笔
不可说:a pen of John
但不可分割的所有关系,指自身拥有的不可分割的东西可用’s也可用of表示。例如:
Mary’s hands(Mary has two hands)玛丽的手
也可以说:the hands of Mary
2.表示主谓关系
the doctor’s advice(The doctor advised)医生的建议
his mother’s request(His mother requested)他母亲的请求
3.表示动宾关系
the war prisoner’s release 释放战俘
children’s education 年轻一代的教育
4.表示同位语关系(通常用of表示)
the city of Rome罗马城
the city of Pairs巴黎城
第二节 实战演
第二章 代词
用来代替名词、名词短语或句子的词称为代词。代词可分为:人称代词、指示代词、疑问代词、反身代词和不定代词等。
高考重点要求:
1、物主代词、疑问代词、反身代词和指示代词的基本用法
2、定代词的指代含义以及数的情况
3、it的基本用法
第一节 知识点概述
一、人称代词
1. 人称代词不仅仅指人,也可以指事或物。
2. 第三人称的人称代词分阳性he(him),阴性she(her)和中性it(it),复数和宾语形式都只有一个形式they和them,不分性别。
3. 选用什么人称代词,取决于所要代替的名词。在数和性上要与所代替的名词保持一致。
二、物主代词
物主代词是用来表示所有关系的,分为形容词性物主代词和名词性物主代词两种。形容词性物主代词放在名词前作定语,相当于形容词;名词性物主代词相当于“形容词性物主代词+名词”,相当于名词,可以作主语、表语或宾语。
物主代词的用法:
(1)形容词性物主代词放在名词前作定语。例如:
His pencil box is on the desk.
This is our school.
(2)名词性物主代词作名词用,本身就相当于“形容词性物主代词+名词”,因此,后面不可再加名词。
作主语:
Richard’s school bag is blue and mine is black. 理查德的书包是蓝色的,我的书包是黑色的。(mine=my school bag)
作表语:
It’s his. 这是他的(东西)。
作宾语:
He borrows your dictionary and you may borrow mine. 他借你的字典,你可以借我的。(作及物动词的宾语)
“of+名词性物主代词”可以放在名词后作定语,表示强调:
He is a friend of mine. 他是我的一个朋友。
注意:
试比较下面两句句子:
This is a photo of mine. 这是我的一张照片。(照片是我拥有的,但不一定照的是我本人)
This is a photo of me. 这是一张我本人的照片。(照片上是我本人)
三、反身代词
反身代词用于所强调的动作与动作执行者的关系。通常在句中作表语、宾语和同位语。
四、指示代词
(一)指示代词是具有指示概念的代词
this 这; that 那; these 这些; those 那些; such 如此的; same 同样的
(二)指示代词的用法
(1)this、that、these、those 在句子中作主语、宾语、表语或定语。
(2)such 一般在句子中作定语或主语。such “这样的”,such a 这样一个,such as 像…这样的。
(3)same 可作定语、表语、主语和宾语。
例如:
1) That is our English teacher. (主语)
2) This storybook is thicker than that one. (定语)
3) I prefer this (these) to that (those). (宾语)
4) What he likes best is this/that. (表语)
5) I have never read such an exciting book. (定语)
6) I like such sports as basketball and swimming. (定语)
7) Such is our trip plan. (主语) (指上文提到过或刚说过的内容)。
8) She wants the book and I want the same. (宾语)
9) We were born on the same day. (定语)
注意:
1) this、these 指空间上离说话人较近的人或物,可以与 here 连用;that、those 指空间上离说话人较远的人或物,可以与 there 连用。
2) 打电话或其他场合,本人这一方用 this 或 these. 反之用 that 或 those。
3) such 作定语时,如名词前有不定冠词,应把such置于不定冠词之前 。
4) 在 same 之前必须加冠词 the 。
五、疑问代词
1.Who 用于询问别人姓名,身份或关系。What 用于询问别人职业。
2.Which 指的物有范围限制,侧重于哪一个;What 指的物无范围限制,侧重于种类。
3.Whose 用于明确所有者。whom 在口语中,多为 who 代替。
六、不定代词
不是指明代替任何特定名词的代词叫不定代词。常见的不定代词有all, both, each, every, some, any, many, much, (a)few, (a)little, one, ones, either, neither, other, another, no, none以及含有some-, any-, no-等的合成代词(如:anybody, something, no one)。这些不定代词大多可以代替名词,在句子中作主语、宾语、表语或定语。但none和由some, any, no, every 构成的复合不定代词(如somebody等)只能作主语、宾语和表语。而every和no只能作定语。
七、it的用法
(一)作无人称代词
1. 指代天气、时间、距离、季节和自然现象等。例如:
It rains continually in the south in June.
It is a half hour’s walk to the factory.
2. 指代上文中提到的无生命的东西。例如:
Where is my notebook? It was here just now.
There is air all around us, but we cannot see it.
3. 代替有生命但不能或不必分阴阳性的东西(包括婴儿)。例如:
The baby cried because it was hungry.
Someone is knocking at the door, who can it be?
(二)用作强调句,构成强调结构
句型结构:It is(was)+强调部分+that。例如:
It was last night that they left for H.K.
It was I that(who) his sister in the park yesterday.
(三)it作形式主语和形式宾语
it作形式主语和形式宾语是为了使句子平衡,而把真正的主语或宾语置于句子后面。例如:
I found it interesting to study English.
It is of great help to master a foreign language.
第二节 实战演练
一、复习时需注意的要点
1.不定代词可作主语,当作主语时,要明确这一不定代词究竟是单数还是复数,以确定它和谓语动词在人和数的一致。
2.不定代词还可作定语。当作定语时,应该注意其所修饰的名词是可数还是不可数,以确定这个名词用单数还是复数。
例:Much has been done to fight pollution;each of them has got a present.
3.many, few和both用于可数名词,表示复数概念。
4.All, both和each和含有every的复合代词用在否定句中只表示部分否定。
例:Not all the students have been to the Austrlia.
She can’t work out both of the difficult problems.
Everybody cannot work out the problem.
5.Neither,none和含有no的复合代词表示全部否定。
例:None of us can answer the question.
Neither of the questions is right.
二、历届高考试题分析
例1、No progress was made in the trade talk as neither side would accept the conditions of ____.
A. others B. the other C. either D. another
答案:B
【解析】 根据上文neither的提示可以看出所指的应该是两者中的另外一个,所以用the other。这句的意思是:贸易谈判没有取得进展,因为双方都不愿意接受对方的条件。
例2、Shanghai is really a fascinating city and we've decided to stay for_________ two weeks.
A. another B. other C. the other D. other's
答案为A。
【解析】 another意为“又一,再一”,后面如接two, three等数词或few等时,可与复数形式连用,我们可以把two weeks看作一个整体,在原来的基础上再待两星期。而 other,the other用于两者之间的另一个,other's是other的所有格形式,故B、C、D都不可选。
例3、The Parkers bought a new house but_________ will need a lot of work before they can move in.
A. they B. it C. one D. which
答案为B。
【解析】 it指代前面提到的单数名词。指同一个事物,此句中指a new house;而one指“同名异物”;which引导定语从句,但题干中有连词but,并非主从句,which不妥;A为复数,更易排除。
例4、In fact ________ is a hard job for the police to keep order in an important football match.
A. this B. that C. there D. it
答案为D。
【解析】 it在句子中作形式主语。真正的主语是to keep order in an important football match。由于空格出现在fact的后面,所以一些考生把它当成了同位语从句,而选了that。而实际上,in fact是介词短语作状语,后不能接同位语从句。译文:实际上,在一次重大的足球赛中,对警察来说,维持秩序是一项很难的工作。
例5、Some of the wheat is from Canada. What about ________?
A. another B. the other C. others D. the rest
答案为D。
【解析】 wheat是不可数名词,不能用others代替。the rest既可代可数名词,也可代不可数名词,此处指the rest of the wheat。
例6、If this dictionary is not yours, _______ can it be?
A. what else B. who else C. which elses D. who else’s
答案为D。
【解析】 考查关系代词所有格的用法。who else“其他什么人”,用于主格,宾格。who else's“其他什么人”,用于所有格。
例7、One of the sides of the board should be painted yellow, and ________.
A. the other is white B. another white
C. the other white D. another is white
答案为C。
【解析】 木板一般只有两面,把一面染成黄色的;另一面染成白色的,考查one…the other结构,由此排除B、D;原句结构为“…the other(should be painted)white,为避免重复可省略。
例8、-He was nearly drowned once.
-When was _______ ?
- _______was in when he was in middle school.
A. that; It B. this; This C. this; It D. that; This
答案为A。
【解析】 用that指代上文提到的事,避免了重复;it指代时间。
例9、-Your coffee smells great!
-It's from Mexico. Would you like_________?
A. it B. some C. this D. little
答案为B。
【解析】 some相当于some of this coffee.
例10、Few pleasures can equal ________ of a cool drink on a hot day.
A. some B. any C. that D. those
答案为C。
【解析】 这句话的意思是“在炎热的夏天几乎没有任何乐趣能和饮一杯冷饮的乐趣相比。”that在句子中代表the pleasure。一些考生只注意到Few pleasures是复数,而没有注意到这里指的是饮一杯冷饮的乐趣,误填了those。注意:使用代词时一定要弄清楚指代关系。

现在完成时及其考点
考点一:考查基本概念
例 Both his parents look sad . Maybe they _________what's happened to him .(呼和浩特)
A. knew B. have known C. must know D.will know
简析:现在完成时主要强调过去发生的动作对现在造成的影响,或过去发生的动作还未结束,一直持续到现在或将来,重点在于对现在的影响。这种考查难度较大,往往无时间状语,需要从上下文分析、推理才行。故上两侧根据上下文分析、推理,正确答案是B。
考点二:考查时间状语
例1. He has _______ been to Shanghai , has he ?
A. already B.never C.ever D. still
例2. Have you met Mr Li ______?
A. just B. ago C.before D. a moment ago
例3. The famous writer _____ one new book in the past two year .
A. is writing B.was writing C.wrote D.has written
例4.-Our country ______ a lot so far . -Yes . I hope it will be even ______ .
A. has changed ; well B. changed ; good
C. has changed ; better D. changed ; better
例5. Zhao Lan ______already ______in this school for two years .
A. was ; studying B. will ; study C. has ; studied D. are ; studying
例6. We ______ Xiao Li since she was a little girl .
A. know B. had known C. have known D. knew
例7. Harry Potter is a very nice film .I_______ it twice .
A. will see B. have seen C. saw D.see
简析:现在完成时的时间状语常有如下四类:
⑴现在完成时常与already(已经),just(刚刚,正好),ever(曾经),never(从来,也不;从不),before(以前),yet(仍然)等连用。故例1应选B;例2应选C。
⑵现在完成时常与recently(近来),so far(到目前为止),in the past/“last + 一段时间”等时间状语连用。因为上述短语表示的是从现在起往前推算的一段时间,句中的动作是从过去某一时间或时刻开始持续到现在的。故例3应选D,例4应选C。
⑶现在完成时时常与“for +时间段或since +过去时间点”连用(含从句,从句过去时)。故例5应选C,例6应选C。
⑷现在完成时还与once(一次),twice(两次),three times(三次),several times(几次)等表示重复次数的词语连用。故例7应选B。
考点三:考查与一般过去时的区别
例1. -These farmers have been to the United States .
-Really ? When _____ there ?
A. will they go B. did they go
C. do they go D. have they gone
例2.-______ you ___ your homework yet ? -Yes . I _____ it a moment ago .
A. Did ; do ; finished B. Have ; done ; finished
C. Have ; done ; have finished D. will ; do ; finish
简析:现在完成时与一般过去时容易混淆,就是因为它们所表示的动作都发生在过去,但二者又有区别:一般过去时表示过去某个时间发生的事、存在的状态或经常发生的动作,说话的侧重点在于陈述一件过去的事情,与现在没有关系;现在完成时表示与现在有关系的发生在过去的动作,它不与表示过去的时间状语(如yesterday , last week , a moment ago等)连用。故例1、2的正确答案皆为B。
考点四:考查非延续性动词的用法
例1. His father ______ the Party since 1978 .
A. joined B. has joined C. was in D. has been in
例2.-Do you know him well ?
- Sure .We _________ friends since ten years ago .
A. were B. have been C. have become D. have made
例3.-How long have you ____ here ?-About two months .

A. is B. has C. will D. was
简析:现在完成时中,非延续性动词不能与for和since引导的表示一段时间的状语连用,通常是用相应的延续性动词来代替。常用的非延续性动词及替代形式如下:
close-→be closed, put on→wear , open-→be open
get up-→be up, finish/end-→be over , lose-→be lost ,
marry-→be married(to), fall asleep/ go to sleep -→be asleep ( sleep ) ,
get to know-→ know come/arrive-→be here/in ,
come/get back-→be back , go/leave-be away , become -→be ,
borrow -→keep , buy-→have , begin/start-→be on ,
die-→be dead , join-→be in/be a ember of... ,
catch a cold-→ have a cold等,
故例1、2、3、4的正确答案依次为:D、B、A、C。例5应填been dead 。其次,可以用相应的延续性动词的过去时表示,故例6应填joined;ago。再次,还可用“It is + 一段时间+since从句”来表示,故例7应选A。
考点五:考查词组have/has been in / to与have/has gone to的区别
例1. Miss Green isn't in the office . she_______ to the library .
A.has gone B. went C.will go D. has been
例2. My parents ______ Shandong for ten years .
A. have been in B. have been to
C. have gone to D.have been
简析:“have/has gone to + 地点”表示“某人去了某地(还未回来)”,指主语所指的人不在这儿。“have/has been in + 地点”表示“在某地呆了多长时间”,常与表示时间的状语连用。“have/has been to +地点”表示“曾经去过某地(但现在已不在那儿)。”故例1、2的正确答案皆为A。

英语课堂的趣味教学
英语课堂需要趣味教学。如何激发并保持学生的学习兴趣,使之成为学习的动力呢?我觉得可以从以下几点入手:
一、培养正确心态,树立学习信心
首先培养学生正确的学习心态,树立正确的学习观。培养 “为自己而学”的心态;回报父母和国家的心态;“先付出后收获”的心态;激发学生“做学习的主人翁”意识,使他们产生“我能学好英语”的信心,使他们在学习过程中能够排除万难,奋勇拼搏。
二、建立情感沟通,融洽师生关系
大量事实表明:如果学生对某个老师有好感,他们便对这位老师的课感兴趣并分外重视,因而肯下功夫学好这门课,甚至“爱屋及乌”,对与之相关的东西也格外关注。因此,教师要主动建立情感沟通,与学生建立良好的师生关系。关系和谐,感情融洽,学生才会进得来,留得住,其乐融融地搞好学习。
三、营造轻松愉悦的课堂学习气氛
轻松愉快的学习环境,其乐融融的学习气氛对激发学生的学习兴趣有着极大的影响,因此,教师要以满腔的热情投入课堂教学,以洒脱的仪表、文雅大方的举止、简洁幽默的谈吐吸引学生,以饱满的精神状态、轻松愉快的表情感染学生。让学生在英语的环境中愉快自然地操练,不断提高听、说、读、写的基本能力。
四、采用灵活多变的教学方法,课内外结合,让学生学玩结合,学用结合
实践证明:单一的教学方法往往是乏味的,即便是一个好的方法,经常用也会逐渐失去它的魅力。为了激发、保持和巩固学生的兴趣,教师要根据教学内容的不同,探索与之相应的好的教学方法,采用灵活多变的教学方法,课内外结合,让学生学玩结合,学用结合。
比如教字母,教师可以把字母做成卡片,让学生做字母排队游戏,分组进行字母排队比赛,教唱字母歌。这样做学生学得快而好,其乐融融,印象自然深刻。
再比如教数字,可以让学生收集自己家里所有的数字,如电话号码、手机号码、身份证号码、摩托车号码,全家人穿的鞋子的尺码、衣服的尺码、父母的身高、体重、家里的藏书数量、自己的零用钱等等。这样一节枯燥的数字课就会上得热闹非凡,学生们也会兴趣盎然。
教单词的时候利用具体情景,培养学生灵活运用单词的能力,学会在交际中使用单词。比如教window,我们就可以使用直观教具,指着窗户问:“What’s this?”然后用英语介绍:“It’s a window.”接着再重复几次,窗户的音形意就深深印在学生脑子里,以后看到窗户他们就会脱口而出window。教师还可以用模拟、示范动作或面部表情介绍词汇。如:Look!I am closing the door. I am writing some words on the blackboard. 然后利用手势、动作指导学生模仿做,效果也比较好。总之,利用具体情景教词汇,生动活泼、快而有效,容易引起学生兴趣,给学生留下深刻的印象。
此外,教句子可进行听力比赛、单词造句比赛。教课文,可根据体裁和内容的不同,采用模拟对话、扮演角色、讲故事、述大意、改人称、变对话为叙述、变叙述为对话、即兴口头作文、看图说话、组句成文等多种形式。这样就可把“死书”教活,学生学得有趣,用得机会多,效果必然好。
总之,英语教师不能照本宣科地教英语,要深入学生生活,了解学生兴趣、爱好和他们所关注的问题,充分考虑到学生在现有基础、学习潜能、兴趣爱好、学习风格等方面存在差异的客观现实,面向全体学生,把英语真正作为工具去教,想方设法让学生把英语真正当成工具去用,在英语课程实施过程中尽可能满足不同学生的学习需要。这样英语教学才会生动活泼,富于情趣,才能更有效地把素质教育推向新的高潮。
第十五章 词汇
词汇的意义是由一个词汇所处的特定的上下文所决定的。
高考重点要求:
1、熟记《高考英语词汇手册》中列出的单词短语和习惯用法。
2、掌握相当数量的内涵不易搞清或者容易混淆的词汇。
3、注意从逻辑角度辨析词义,注意一词多义掌握常见构词法。
第一节 知识点概述
词汇辨析题可以分为几类:
一、近义词和同义词
英语中有大量的近义词和同义词,但它们与其他词的搭配关系不完全一致,有时甚至是大相径庭。在某种场合下它们有时可以换用,但在另外一些场合下它们又不能互换。掌握大量的此类近义词同义词是考试制胜的关键之一。
二、形似词和音似词
英语中有许多词汇外形相似、发音相近或相同,但意义不同,我们应该注意观察,仔细辨清其不同的拼法、读音及含义。
三、短语动词
短语动词是英语中一种使用广泛的重要语言现象,它是由动词和介词或副词连用、表示特定语意的固定结构。正确使用这类短语动词是英语学习的一大难点。
四、具有特定搭配关系的词汇
英语词语的特定搭配是英语学习中的一个重要项目,也是词汇测试的一个重点。为克服受母语影响而产生的错误,我们必须重视学习符合英美人习惯的词语搭配。
五、习语、成语及固定词组
英语中有大量约定俗成的习语、成语及固定词组,它们中有相当一部分往往从字面上猜不出其正确含义。要掌握它们,广泛运用以及记忆背诵是必不可少的。
六、固定结构中的词汇
英语中有些词汇仅用于一些固定结构中,而其他一些同义或近义的词汇则不能替换。学生应熟悉这些固定结构,以提高应试能力。
七、涉及语法现象的词汇
有许多词汇辨析题并不局限于纯粹的词汇意义及搭配的区分,而往往与英语语法有一定的联系。掌握基本的英语语法对正确解答词汇辨析题也起到了至关重要的作用。
第二节 实战演练
一、复习时需注意的要点
1、要注意近义动词在词义上的区别,例如:borrow与lend,send、bring、carry与fetch等。
2、有些近义动词虽然在汉语意思上看不出区别,但要注意它们在含义和使用场合的区别,例如:start与begin,try与manage等。
在记忆词汇时我们不应该孤立地去背单词的中文意思,而要花气力记住单词在句子中的用法,即要记住“be+动词的过去分词+不同介词”的用法
3、平时学习中要多读文章,提高在语境中领悟词语的能力。
二、历届高考试题分析
例1、There was such a long queue for coffee at the interval that we ____ gave up.
A. eventually B. unfortunately C. generously D. purposefully
答案为A.
【解析】 eventually 最终;unfortunately不幸地;generously慷慨地;purposefully故意地。
例2、The company is starting a new advertising campaign to ____ new customers to its stores.
A. join B. attract C. stick D. transfer
答案为B。
【解析】 attract sb. to…把某人吸引到………地方来。
例3、What he has done is far from ________.
A. satisfying B. satisfied C. satisfaction D. satisfy
答案为C。
【解析】句中from是介词,后接名词。译文:他所做的事离满意还差得远。satisfactory是形容词,意思是“令人满意的”;satisfied是过去分词,可作为形容词使用,意思是“感到满意的”;satisfy是动词,意思是“使……满意”。
例4、As we joined the big crowd I got_________ from my friends.
A. separated B. spared C. lost D. missed
答案为A。
【解析】get separated from sb.“与某人分开”;get lost“迷路”;get spared和get missed搭配不合理。译文:由于拥入了一大堆人群中,我和我的朋友被分开了。
例5、We didn't plan our art exhibition like that but it_________ very well.
A. worked out B. tried out C. went on D. carried on
答案为A。
【解析】先排除B和D,因为try out(实验),carry on(实行)与exhibition之间是被动关系;而go on虽有“进行,进展”之意,但这里强调的是计划和结果的关系,work out=turn out“(最后)显得”。译文:我们没有那样计划我们的艺术展览,但结果却很好。此题应为一表结果的短语。
例6、-Do you think the Stars will beat the Bulls?
-Yes. They have better players, so I ________them to win.
A. hope B. prefer C. expect D. want
答案为C。
【解析】expect“期望”,此处意思是“我希望他们赢”。hope虽然有“希望”的意思,但后面不接动词不定式作宾补。want的意思是“想”,表示个人的欲望;prefer的意思是“宁愿;更喜欢”,常构成prefer to do sth.; prefer doing sth. to doing sth.; prefer to do sth. rather than do sth.等短语。I prefer them to win.的意思是“我宁愿他们赢。”
例7、Nick is looking for another job because he feels that nothing he does ________ his boss.
A. serves B. satisfies C. promises D. supports
答案为B。
【解析】satisfy sb.的意思是“使某人满意”。根据句意可知,Nick所做的一切都不能使他的老板满意。
例8、-When shall we start?
-Let's ________ it at 8∶30.Is that all right?
A. set B. meet C. make D. take
答案为C。
【解析】 “make it+时间”的意思是“就定为什么时间吧”。此题译为“把出发的时间定在八点半。set意为“对时间,调时间”。
例9、His mother had thought it would be good for his character to ________ from home and earn some money on his own.
A. run away B. take away C. keep away D. get away
答案为D。
【解析】on one's own“独立地”;run away from“逃跑”;take way“拿走”。get away from home的意思是“离开家”。译文:他母亲原本认为他离开家自己赚钱对锻炼他的性格有好处。
例10、-Mummy, can I put the peaches in the cupboard?
-No,dear. They don't ________ well. Put them in the fridge instead.
A. keep B. fit C. get D. last
答案为A。
【解析】根据句子中两个表示地点的名词cupboard 和fridge 可以看出,是要把peaches保存好,所以要选keep“保存”。fit的意思是“安装”;get的意思是“得到;获得”;last的意思是“持续”,后常接表示时间的词,如:last two hours持续了两小时等。
