高一英語(yǔ)Festivals around the world教案
task 3. discussion
let students have a discussion about the text, then answer some questions.
questions: (1) what is behind fun?
(2 ) why did people like little tramp?
(3 ) do you think charlie chaplin’s eating boiled shoes funny? why?
step 2 language points:
1.do you find it funny to see someone sliding on a banana skin, bumping into someone else round a corner, or failing down a hole in the road?
……find it funny to see……中的it 在此句中是形式賓語(yǔ)，to see…… 才是find的賓語(yǔ)。當(dāng)動(dòng)詞不定式作句子的賓語(yǔ)，同時(shí)，有一個(gè)形容詞同賓語(yǔ)在一起時(shí)，我們常用it作先行賓語(yǔ)。
eg: i find it difficult to understand him.
we find it useful to learn a foreign language.
slide
the book slid off my knee.
he slid over the question without answering it.
she slid out of the room when no one was looking.
bump into
unfortunately, the motorbike ~ed ~ a big tree.
mary was walking alone in the street when she ~ed ~ her teacher.
cruel
don’t be ~ to animals.
the death of their daughter was a ~ blow.
2.perhaps it makes us feel more content with our life because we feel there is someone else worse off than ourselves.
1)content(adj):satisfied ,happy.
常見(jiàn)的搭配是：be content with sth: be satisfied with sth
be content to do sth: be willing to do sth
eg: she is content to stay at home looking after her children.
are you content with your living conditions?
3.badly off: in a poor position. 潦倒;窮困。其反義詞是well off。文中worse off是badly off的比較級(jí)形式。
eg:they are too badly off to have a holiday.
many people are better off than before.
4. astonish
the news he brought ~ed everyone in the class.
he looked at me in ~ment.
it is ~ing to me that she was late.
5. however, some actors can astonish us with the deep feelings they can inspire in us for a character they are playing.
inspire(vt)
~ sth in sb ---- ~ sb with sth :to fill sb with thoughts,feelings or aims 激勵(lì)或鼓舞某人。
the father ~d his son with confidence.
= the father ~d confidence in his son.
這個(gè)句子中有兩個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句：they can inspire in us修飾the deep feelings, they are playing 修飾a character。
不管怎樣，有些演員能用他們所演的角色在我們身上鼓動(dòng)起深深的感情來(lái)震撼我們。
cut off: to separate from others; to stop suddenly;
