單元教學目標

1. 學習現在進行時

2. 學習過去進行時態的陳述句和特殊疑問句

What were you doing at ten o'clock yesterday?

I was watching the traffic.

3. 學會有關用過去進行時的書面表達。

【重點難點解析】

1. It's quite a nice elephant. =It's a very nice elephant.

它是一匹相當漂亮的大象。

以名詞為中心的詞組有冠詞、形容詞時，quite放在冠詞之前，而very放在冠詞之后，即：“quite a/an+形容詞+名詞”和“a very+形容詞+名詞”。如：

①That is quite an interesting film. 那是一部相當有趣的電影。

②It's a very easy question. 它是一道很簡單的題。

2. At this time, the man downstairs was trying to sleep. 這時，樓下的人正試圖睡著。

sleep 睡，睡著，注意與它構成的幾個短語的意義的區別。

①go to sleep 睡著

②get to sleep 沒法睡著

③fall asleep 入睡(指不知不覺地睡著了)

④go to bed 上床睡覺(著重于睡前的準備工作)

⑤be asleep 睡著的(強調狀態)

例：

①I can't get to sleep because of the noise outside. 外面的噪聲使我無法入睡。

②He fell asleep in class yesterday. 昨天他在課堂上睡著了。

③John went to bed at ten o'clock last night, he didn't know when he went to sleep. 昨晚約翰九點上床，但他不知道他什么時候睡著的。

④The baby is asleep. =The baby is sleeping. 這個孩子睡著了。

3. He found it very difficult to get to sleep. 他發現很難入睡。

此句中“it”為形式賓語，真正的賓語是動詞不定式詞組to get to sleep. 這句話原來的語序為：He found it very difficult to get to sleep very difficult. 句子有點頭重腳輕。一般情況下，當賓語是比較長的詞組時，通常用it作形式賓語，而真正的主語放在后面以保持句子的平衡。

如：They think it difficult to finish the work in two days.

他們認為在兩天內完成這項工作很難。

這種結構是簡單句，常可以轉換為含有賓語從句的復合句，意思不變，這也是考點之一。

即：He found(that)it was difficult to get to sleep.

They think it is difficult to finish the work in two days.

4. I was waiting for the sound of the other shoe. 我一直在等著另一只鞋落地的聲音呢。

A. wait for sb. /sth. 等待某人/某物

Please wait for me at the school gate. 請在校門口等我。

B. sound, noise, voice 的區別。

sound 指任何可以聽到的聲音，是聲音的統稱，如人叫，鳥鳴，機器聲或大自然的任何聲音。

noise意為“噪音，喧鬧聲”，常指不悅耳、不和諧的嘈雜聲。

voice指人嘴里發出的聲音，指嗓音，包括說話、唱歌或笑聲，也可指鳥唱歌的聲音。

例：

①Can you hear the sound of something moving? 你聽到有東西移動的聲音了嗎?

②Don't make so much noise in class. 不要在課堂上弄出這么大的聲音。

③The girl has a beautiful voice. 這個女孩的嗓音很好。

5. One day the man upstairs heard the sound of children playing in the park. 一天，樓上的那個人聽見了孩子們在公園里玩的聲音。

the sound of sb. doing sth. 某人做某事的聲音，of短語作sound的定語。

【命題趨勢分析】

1. 過去進行時態的構成及其陳述句，疑問句形式，易出動詞形式填空題或單項選擇題。

2. 過去進行時與現在進行時，一般過去時的區別。易出動詞形式填空題，答題時注意結合上下文情景，分析時間狀語。

3. 以句詞為中心的詞中，形容詞、冠詞的位置問題，容易出單項選擇題。

例：

Yesterday I read a book. It was book.

A. very an interesting B. quite an interesting

C. an very interesting D. a quite interesting

【基礎知識精講】

1. 過去進行時態The Past Continuous Tense

(1)過去進行時態的謂語由“was(were)+現在分詞”構成，其肯定式、否定式和疑問式如下：

類 型

例 句

肯定式

I(He, she, It)was working at six this morning. We(You, They)were working at six this morning.

否定式

I(He, she, It)was not working at six this morning. We(You, They )were not working at six this morning.

疑問式

Was I(he, she, it)working at six this morning? Were we(you, they)working at six this morning?

(2)過去進行時態的基本用法

①過去進行時表示過去某一時刻或某段時間內正在進行的動作。這一特定的過去時間，往往有一定時刻或一段時間的時間狀語，或者有一定的上下文來表示。例如：

They were having a football match from three to five yesterday afternoon. 昨天下午三點到五點他們正在進行足球比賽。

At seven this morning I was listening to the radio.

今天早上七點我正在聽收音機。

The teacher was talking to some parents when I saw her.

我見到老師時，她正在和一些家長談話。

He said that he was working all day on Friday.

他說他星期五整天在工作。

I was thinking of my friends when I was in England.

我在英國時經常想到朋友。

②表示動作短暫的動詞，如leave, start, come, go, arrive 等，用過去進行時表示過去某一時即將要發生的動作, 例如：

They said that they were arriving here soon. 他們說，他們很快就到。

She asked whether he was running out of money. 她問他是否錢就要花光了。

2. I'm trying to draw an elephant. 我正試著畫一頭大象。

(1)try to do sth. 試著(設法)做某事，否定形式為try not to do sth.

We should try to finish it in time. 我們應該設法按時完成任務。

(2)try one's best to do sth. =do one's best to do sth. 盡全力做某事。

Lin Tao tried his best to win the boys' relay race in the sports meeting.

3. But please don't play with my chalk. 但請不要玩我的粉筆。

A. play with sth. 玩某事，以…為娛樂

play with sb. 與某人玩，耍弄…

例：The children are playing with snow. 孩子們正在玩耍。

I'll play with them this time. 這次我要和他們玩。

B. chalk此處為不可數名詞，一支粉筆應為a piece of chalk.

4. What was he drawing on? 他在什么東西上面畫?

此句相當于：Where was he drawing? 上句中的“on”不能省略。

5. How can you get on well with your neighbours?

你是怎樣與你的鄰居們相處得好的?

get on…with sb. 與某人相處

get on well with sb. 與某人相處得好

反義詞組：get on badly with sb.

He gets on very well with his classmates. 他和同學們相處得很好。

6. The man upstairs=The man from upstairs 樓上的人

7. …and he was rather angry with the man upstairs. …他對樓上的人相當生氣。

be/get angry

with sb. 生某人的氣

about/at sth. 為某事而生氣/對某人的言行感到生氣

to do sth. 為做某事而生氣

(1)Don't be angry with me. 別生我的氣了。

(2)Was she angry at my words? 聽到我的話，他生氣了嗎?

8. He went upstairs and knocked at the door. 他走上樓去，敲了敲門。

A. knock at/on … 敲…，撞…

Someone is knocking on the window. 有人敲窗。

B. knock 也可以做名詞，如：There is a loud knock at the door. 有人大聲敲門。

9. The noise wakes me up. 噪聲把我吵醒了。

wake sb. up 吵醒/叫醒某人，wake 為及物動詞

wake up (某人自己)醒來，wake 為不及物動詞

(1)Please wake me up at six tomorrow morning. 請明早六點鐘叫醒我。

(2)I woke up late at night and couldn't sleep again. 我深夜醒來，再也沒有睡著。

wake 的形容詞形式為awake, 其反義詞為asleep，這兩個詞只能作表語。

如：She's awake. She isn't asleep. 她是醒著的，沒有睡著。

10. He was just falling asleep when there was a loud lock at the door. 他剛要入睡，這時有人大聲敲門。

When 在此句中相當于 and then, at this/that time. 它所引導的時間狀語從句表示過去某一具體時間，主句常用過去進行時。如：

He was just going out when the bell rang. 他剛要出門，這時電話鈴響了。

11. What were you doing at noon yesterday? 昨天中午你在干什么?

at noon 在中午=at twelve o'clock=in the middle of the day.

12. He looked out of his window. 他向窗外看去。

look out of… 向…外看，相當于look through the window.

例：We'll having a class. Don't look out of the door. Listen to the teacher.

13. Masha and Sasha were fed up with their neighbour Misha.

瑪莎和莎莎對他們的鄰居米莎感到討厭。

be fed up with… 對…感到不高興，厭煩

I'm fed up with your complaints. 你的抱怨我聽厭了。

14. I need a pair of garden scissors. 我需要一把花園里用的剪刀。

scissors 剪刀，它是由兩部分構成的物體，只能用多數形式，類似的有trousers(褲子)，glasses(眼鏡)等。

一把剪刀：a pair of scissors

15. Could I borrow it from you? 我可以從你們這兒借它嗎?

borrow…from… 從…借來(主語借進來)

lend…to… 借…給…(主語借出去)

如：I borrowed a pen from Lily. 我從莉莉那兒借了一支鋼筆。

Lily lent a pen to me. 莉莉借了支鋼筆給我。

典型例題

【課本難題解答】

1. I (drive) a car at ten o'clock last night.

析：at ten o'clock last night 是明顯的過去某一具體時間，所以動詞應用過去進行時，應填：was driving

2. The teacher (talk)to some students when I saw her.

析：此句中when 引導的從句表示過去某一具體時間，故動詞用過去進行時 was talking.

3. Please wake up him tomorrow morning. 改錯題

析：此句中wake up 是“叫醒某人”的意思，當它的賓語是代詞時，應放在動詞和副詞之間，即 wake him up.

4. He found it easy to learn English. (改為復合句，意義不變)

析：此句中it為形式賓語，把它變為賓語從句的主語時，注意主句動詞的形式，題中主句動詞found 為過去式，故賓語從句也應為過去式，應改為：He found that it was easy to learn English.

5. He fell (sleep) in class yesterday.

析：連系動詞fall后應接形容詞作表語，故應填sleep的形容詞形式asleep.

Ying Ming was walking by a river with her brother, Sung Yee. They saw a man fishing and stopped to watch him. He held an umbrella over his head to keep off the sun. There were three small fish and a big one on the grass. They watched for a few minutes. Then the man caught something else.
