考试中主要测试can，may或could，might表示可能性的区别及对may构成的疑问句的回答。
（1）can, could, may, might都可以表示可能性.can, could表示潜在的可能性或理论上或逻辑判断上存在的可能性；而may, might则表示事实上的可能性。此外，can还具有“有能力”的意思，而may与might则不具此意。例如：

Any man with a little sense can see that he is wrong.
（2）May I / we …？这一类疑问句的肯定回答为Yes, please.或Certainly；否定回答为Please don’t.或No, you mustn’t. 例如：
“May we leave now?” “No, you mustn’t. You haven’t finished your home work yet.”

can 与 be able to 都可以表示能力，但两者在用法上有点差异：can (could)表示主观能力，不表示意愿，它的将来时用will be able to; be able to表示主观意愿，强调要克服困难去做某事。例如：
1）My grandma is over seventy, but she can still read without glasses.
2）He is able to give up his bad habits.
5. must 和 have to
must 和 have to 都可以表示“必须”，但有几点区别：
（1）must 强调“内在的职责”、“义务”，而have to 强调“外界压力”、“不得已而为之”。
（2）have to可用于多种时态，而must一般用于现在时，其过去时与将来时分别由had to与shall / will have to代替。
（3）在回答must引起的问题时，如果是否定的答复，不能用mustn’t，而要用needn’t或don’t have to，因为mustn’t是“一定不要”、“一定不能”的意思。例如：
1）You must come to the classroom before eight.
2）It is raining hard outside, but I have to leave now.
3）“Must we do it now?” “No, you needn’t.”
6. used to +do, be used to +doing和be used to +do
（1）used to +v意为“过去常常”，“过去一直”；be used to +v-ing / n（名词）意为“习惯于”；be used to +v意为“被用来（做某事）”。
（2）used to只表示过去，而be used to +v-ing / n可表示现在、过去或将来。例如：
1）He used to smoke. Now he doesn’t.
2）He’s quite used to hard work / working hard.
3）The knife is used to cut bread.
7．用作情态动词的其他短语
would rather, would sooner, would (just) as soon, had rather, had better, had sooner, can not but, may (just) as well等可用作情态动词。例如：
1）The soldier would sooner die than surrender.
2）The brave soldier would as soon die as yield to such an enemy.
3）I’d rather walk than take a bus.
4）If you don’t like to swim, you may just as well stay at home.
注：这些短语后一般直接跟动词原形.would (had) rather, would (had) sooner, would (just) as soon后可跟that 引导的从句，that 常省去，从句要用虚拟语气。对现在和将来的假设用过去时，对过去的假设用过去完成时。例如：
1）I would rather you came on Sunday.
2）I would sooner you hadn’t asked
Period 7 Listening and exercise
Step 1 Listening about carvals
1.Introduction of carnivals:
狂欢节（Carnival），世界上不少国家都有狂欢节。这个节日起源于欧洲的中世纪。古希腊和古罗马的木神节、酒神节都可以说是其前身。有些地区还把它称之为谢肉节和忏悔节。该节日曾与复活节有密切关系。复活节前有一个为期40天的大斋期，即四旬斋（lent）。斋期里，人们禁止娱乐，禁食肉食，反省、忏悔以纪念复活节前3天遭难的耶稣，生活肃穆沉闷，于是在斋期开始的前3天里，人们会专门举行宴会、舞会、游行，纵情欢乐，故有"狂欢节"之说。如今已没有多少人坚守大斋期之类的清规戒律，但传统的狂欢活动却保留了下来，成为人们抒民对幸福和自由向往的重要节日。
欧洲和南美洲地区的人们都庆祝狂欢节。但各地庆祝节日的日期并不相同，一般来说大部分国家都在2月中下旬举行庆祝活动。各国的狂欢节都颇具特色，但总的来说，都是以毫无节制的纵酒饮乐著称。其中最负盛名的要数巴西的狂欢节。

Most English holidays have a religious origin. Easter Day occurs on the first Sunday after the full moon following the spring equinox[1].It is originally the day to commemorate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ. But now for most people, Easter is a secular spring holiday, while for the children, it means, more than anything else, Easter eggs or chocolate eggs! On Easter Sunday morning, the breakfast eggs are boiled in several pans in some families.Each containing a different vegetable dye, so that when they are served the shells are no longer white or pale brown in color, but yellow or pink, blue or green. The dyes do not penetrate[2] the shell of course. Easter eggs are meant to give enjoyment-- and they do! They are pretty and decorative, they signal good wishes and shared happiness in the changing seasons.

Unit 4 Astronomy：the science of the stars
Period 1 Grammar points.
一．语法要点
主语从句：在复合句中作主句的主语的从句叫主语从句。引导主语从句的词有连词that, whether；连接代词who, what, which；连接副词when, where, how, why等。
Eg: Which team will win the match is still unknown.
主语从句放在句首，句子常显得笨重，因此一般把它放到句子后面，前面用引导词”it”来作主语。
Eg: It’s strange that he didn’t come yesterday.
二．重点难点
1．Nobody knew that it was going to be different from other planets going to be different from other planets going round the sun.
going round the sun 为现在分词短语定语，表示一般的动作。
Eg: Men breaking the law will be punished.
现在分词短语，也可表示进行的动作
2. Weather life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on whether this problem can be solved.
for millions of years to come 中不定式to come 作定语，与前面的名词有逻辑上的主谓关系。
Eg: She is the last person to tell lies.
3．The problem was that the earth became violent because it was not clear whether the solid shape was to last or not.
The problem was that …, that 引导表语从句，that 只起连接作用，无意义，但不能省略。
Eg: The trouble is that we are short of money.
4．As the earth cooled down, water began to appear on its surface.
as conj. 随着，在…期间；由于，因为；尽管，即使；当…的时候；像…一样
5. That made it possible for life to begin to develop.
it 是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式to begin to develop.
Eg: He thinks it’s his duty to help others.
三．功能句型
指示（Introductions）
Please look at/ listen to … Please pay attention to ...
Please check that … Make sure you …
Don’t forget to … Watch out for …
You need … You’d better …
You must/mustn’t …

4. The fact that ships can go there surprises many people.
（同位语从句）
Period 4 Grammar pionts
同位语从句讲义及练习
一、理解同位语从句的含义，把握同位语从句的实质
　　在主从复合句中作同位语的从句称为同位语从句。同位语从句一般用that,whether，what, which, who,when, where, why, how 等词引导，常放在fact,news,idea,truth,hope,problem,information,wish, promise, answer, evidence, report, explanation, suggestion, conclusion,等抽象名词后面，说明该名词的具体内容。换言之，同位语从句和所修饰的名词在内容上为同一关系，对其内容作进一步说明。
　　例：The news that they had won the game soon spread over the whole school.他们比赛获胜的消息很快传遍了整个学校。
　　析：they had won the game说明The news的全部内容，因此该句为同位语从句。
　　二、正确运用同位语从句的引导词，准确把握同位语从句
　　1.如同位语从句意义完整，应用that引导同位语从句。（即that 不充当任何成分，只起连接作用）
　　例：The general gave the order that the soldiers should cross the river at once.将军下达了战士们立即过河的命令。
　　析：the soldiers should cross the river at once是the order的全部内容，且意义完整，因此应用that引导同位语从句。
　　2.如同位语从句意义不完整，需增加"是否"的含义，应用whether引导同位语从句。（if不能引导同位语从句）
　　例：We'll discuss the problem whether the sports meeting will be held on time.我们将讨论运动会是否会如期举行的问题。
　　析：the sports meeting will be held on time意义不完整，应加"是否"的含义才能表达the problem的全部内容，因此应用whether引导同位语从句。
　　3.如同位语从句意义不完整，需增加"什么时候"、"什么地点"、"什么方式"等含义，应用when,where,how等词引导同位语从句。
　　例1：I have no idea when he will be back.
　　析：he will be back意义不完整，应加"什么时候"的含义才能表达idea的全部内容，因此应用when引导同位语从句。
　　例2：I have no impression how he went home,perhaps by bike.
析：he went home意义不完整，应加"如何"的含义才能表达impression的全部内容，因此应用how引导同位语从句。
4.当主句的谓语较短，而同位语从句较长时，同位语从句常后肢。
如：The thought came to him that maybe the enemy had fled the city. 他突然想到敌人可能已经逃出城了。
　　三、把握同位语从句和定语从句的区别，明确同位语从句和相似从句的界限
同位语从句和定语从句相似，都放在某一名词或代词后面，但同位语从句不同于定语从句。同位语从句对名词加以补充说明，是名词全部内容的体现，且名词和同位语从句的引导词均不在从句中作成分；定语从句说明先行词的性质与特征，与先行词是修饰与被修饰的关系，且名词和定语从句的引导词均在从句中作成分。
区分时可以在先行词与与从句之间加一个系动词be,使之构成一个新句子，如果句子通顺且符合逻辑，则为同位语从句，反之，则为定语从句。
如：The report that he was going to resign was false.
他将辞职的传闻是假的。
因为the report was that he was going to resign 句意通顺，所以，that he was going to resign 是同位语从句。
　　例1：Information has been put forward ____ more middle school graduates will be admitted into universities.(NMET2001上海)
　　A.while B.that C.when D.as
　　析：答案为B。more middle school graduates will be admitted into universities是Information的内容，且Information不在从句中作成分，所以该句为同位语从句。应将该句区别于：
　　It is said that more middle school graduates will be admitted into universities，this is the information ____ has been put forward.
　　A.what B.that C.when D.as
　　析：答案为B。that has been put forward为information的修饰性定语，且information在从句中作主语，所以该句为定语从句。
　　例2：She heard a terrible noise,____ brought her heart into her mouth.(MET91)
　　A.it B.which C.this D.that
　　析：答案为B。分析语境含义、句子结构和句子成分可知，该句为非限制性定语从句，先行词为a terrible noise，且它在从句中作主语。应将该句区别于：
　　I can't stand the terrible noise ____ she is crying loudly.
　　A.it B.which C.this D.that
　　析：答案为D。she is crying loudly是the terrible noise的内容，且the terrible noise不在从句中作成分，所以该句为同位语从句。

Period5 Listening
Step1 Listening to the material on Page 7
There are three tasks in this step: the first listening, the second listening and the third listening. Teachers should ask students to glance the whole exercises before listening, so that they can realize what is the main task in listening.
Task 1 The first listening
T: Hello, everyone! Glad to meet you. These days the topic we are talking is important women & great women. We know women can achieve the same as men. But they have many difficulties in doing this. Today we'll have three listening materials to listen. The first one tells us some particular problems, which women have when they want a career of their own. The structure of this material is very clear. It is organized by the first, second and third paragraph. So when you listen for the first time, try to get the general idea of the material and think which sentences are the main ideas of the three paragraphs. Now let's listen for the first time. Play the tape for the first time for students to get the main ideas of the paragraphs. And then ask students to try to retell what they have heard. It doesn't matter whether theyare some details, such as words or sentences, or they are some main ideas. Because the purpose of doing this is to let students know they have caught some information. Everything is OK.
Collect what they have heard and write down them on the blackboard. Teachers can let them discuss which are main ideas and which are details.
Task 2 The second listening
There are two purposes in this task. One is to let students finish Exercise 2; the other is to let students get some useful information to finish Exercise 1 and 3. So after the discussion, teachers can let students look through the Exercises on Page 7 in order to catch the useful information to finish the exercises when they are listening. Then play the tape again, and try to finish Exercise 1&2. Exercise 1 is about some details. Exercise 2 is about the main ideas of each paragraph. Teacher can make a pause, and repeat it where the main ideas appear to make sure students can catch it.
Task 3 The third listening
This is a good chance for students to check their answers. After listening twice, most students can have a good understanding about the material, and can write down the answers mostly. So this time is for their checking and adding their answers.
If they still have some difficulties, play the tape for the fourth time to meet their needs.
Step3 The listening material on Page 41
Teacher can ask students to guess the content of the material, according to the questions in exercises. And then have a listening and finish the exercises. The steps of the listening are the same with the above one.
