NOTES:

1.表“介意嗎？”運用三句型

Would／Do you mind（one's）doing．．．？

Would you mind if從句（從句謂語用過去式）

Do you mind if從句（從句謂語用一般現在時）

在回答上面的句型時，表示“不介意”或“同意”，常用No，not at all；No，certainly not；No，of course not；No，go ahead；No，indeed等。表示“介意”或“不同意”時，常用I'm sorry but．．．；Sorry，you'd better not；I'm sorry，but it's not allowed；I'm afraid．．．等。

演練：用括號內所給動詞的適當形式填空。

1)．Would／Do you mind ___________（show）me the way to the post office？

3)．Do you mind if he ___________（attend） the meeting？

4)．Would you mind if I ___________（take） his place？

考例：

2.T:Now look at Part 3 on Page 7. Have short dialogues like the example. But before your practice,I want to emphasize the鷘sage of preposition "in" When "in"鷌s used in the Future Tense, the鷚ord鷚hich expresses "length of time" is behind it. "after"is often used in the Past Tense. If it is used. In Future Tense, the word which expresses "point of time"is behind it,

After/In

e. g. He paid a short visit to Hangzhou last month but came back again after a

few days.

He will arrive after four o'clock.

Don't hurry, I'll go with you in a few minutes.

He said he would come in a month.

(Bb: in +"lenghth of time" after + "point of time")

3. 從一道題看 go ahead 的用法

請看下面這道題：-Do you mind my taking the books away？-____________ ．

A．Certainly，please do鶥．No，go ahead鶦．Yes，not at all D．No，please don't

該題主要考查go ahead在口語中的用法。我們知道go ahead是英語中的一個常用短語，其主要用法有以下幾種：

1北硎盡白攀指傘保ǎ絙egin to do some thing）。

如：鶷he teacher told the students not to write on the papers yet，but John went ahead and wrote his name．老師叫學生先不要在考卷上寫字，可約翰已開始寫他的名字了。

Once our plan is made，we will go ahead．一旦我們制定了計劃，我們就開始工作。

2北硎盡叭〉媒展”；“取得進步”（make progress）。

如：鶫e has been in the class only a few weeks and he is already going ahead．他來到這個班級才幾周就已經取得了進步。

After they settled the problem，they were going ahead fast．解決了問題以后，他們進展得很快。

3．表示“前進”（go forward）；“先進（來）”。如：

Although it was raining hard，they stillwent ahead with their plans．盡管下著大雨，他們仍然繼續前進。 You go ahead and tell him that we are coming．你先走一步，告訴他我們隨后就到。

4．表示“繼續做”（go on with），常與 with連用，后接名詞。如：

Let's go ahead with our work．我們繼續工作吧。

After a short rest，they went ahead with their experiment．休息了一會后，他們繼續做實驗。

5焙有“毫不猶豫地去做”的意思，常用于口語中，其具體含義要根據句子靈活翻譯。

如：-I was wondering if I could use your typewriter．-Sure，go ahead．

-不知是否可以用一下你的打字機。-沒問題，請便好了。

If you want to use the bathroom，go ahead．要是你想用浴室，就用吧。

-May I ask you a question？-Yes，go ahead．

-我可以問你一個問題嗎？-可以，盡管問吧。

熟悉了以上的用法后，我們便可看出上面那道題中的go ahead屬于第五種用法，因此該題的正確答案為B。其意思為:-我把這些書拿走你不介意吧？-不介意，請隨便拿吧。

Step 7. The Design of the Writing on the Blackboard

How to give permission:
