教学重点难点
1.be famous for的讲解
以……著名[其同义词组为be (well)known for
Hangzhou is famous for its beautiful scenery. 杭州以优美的风景而闻名。
be famous for 与be famous as的区别
1) 当主语是表示人的名词
be famous for表示“以某种知识技能、作品或特征而出名”
be famous as则表示“以某种身份而出名”
Einstein was famous for his Theory of Relativity. 爱因斯坦以他的相对论而出名。
Einstein was famous as a great scientist.爱因斯坦以一位伟大的科学家而著称。
2) 当主语是地点名词

The area is famous as a great tea-producing place.这个地区以绿茶产地而出名。
3)当主语是事物名词

be famous as则表示“以某种形式而出名”
This grammar book is famous for its practical usage.这本语法书以其实用性而为人所知。

注意:be famous for后的介词宾语是主语所属内容,而be famous as后的介词宾语与主语是同位成分。例如:

2.kind, sort和type的区别
kind指性质相同,且有极相似之物质,在分类中可作为一类者。
What kind of cake do you like best?你最喜欢哪一种饼?
sort 可与kind互换使用,但较为含混,有时只表示大概此种而已。Sort有时有轻蔑的意味,相反kind 要庄重得多。
He makes friends with all sorts of people.他同各种各样的人交朋友。
type则指型,类型,比较具体,肯定等,而kind比较笼统,模糊。
Men of his type are not to be trusted.像他那种类型的人不可信赖。
3.As in China, the weather is different from area to area. 同中国的情况一样,加拿大的气候也随着地区的不同而不同。
本句相当于一个省略的方式状语从句,相当于“As it is in China, …”。as用作连词,后面接从句,意思是“正如;和……一样”。例:
1)As is the last experiment,he got the same result this time.正如上次的实验一样,他这次获得了同样的结果。
2)As in your country, we grow wheat in the north and rice in the south.正如你们国家的情况一样,我们在北方种小麦,南方种玉米。
4.A lot of people can’t tell difference between an American accent and a Canadian accent. 很多人区别不了美国英语口音与加拿大英语口音。

Coins have some differences in size, weight, shape and metal.硬币的差别体现在其尺寸、重量、形状和质地上。
5. We fill our cars with “gas”…,
fill…with…, “将……装满……”或“使……充满……”,如:

fill with有“充满……”之意,是不及物动词,如:
Her eyes filled with tears. 他的两眼充满泪水。比较:
Tears filled her eyes泪水充满了她的两眼。
The room filled with heavy smoke.满屋浓烟。比较:
The heavy smoke filled the room. 浓烟满屋。
be filled with与be full of的区别:

第一部分 教学设计
period 2 a sample lesson plan for learning about language
(nou n clauses as the appositive)
introduction
in this period students will be first helped by the teacher to warm up by discovering useful words and expressions. then they go on to read and find collocations and do exercises. the ready used materials f or “noun clauses as the appositive” are off ered for class reading. the period will end by students doing a quiz.
objectives
to learn about noun clauses as the appositive
to discover and learn to use some useful words and expressions
to discover and learn to use some useful structures
procedures
1. warming up by discovering us eful words and expressions
turn to page 36 and do exercises 1, 2 ,3, and 4 first. check your answers against your classmates’.
2. reading and finding
turn to page 34 and read the text a trip on “the true north”. as you read, find out sentences with noun clauses as the appositive.
keys: the idea that they would cross the wh ole continent was exciting. / the idea that you can cross canada in less than five days is just wrong. / the fact that ocean ships can go there surprise many people.
3. doing exercises
turn to page 37 and do the exercises in groups of four.
4. ready used materials for “noun clauses as the appositive”
noun clauses as the appositive
an appositive is a word, phrase or clause which is placed directly next to a preceding noun or pronoun and which renames or explains that noun or pronoun.
examples:
my friend henry won the prize, a two-year sc holarship.
the belief that there will be nuclear war is widespread.
the idea that computers will recognize human voices surprises many people.
the possibility that the majority of the labor force will work at home is often discussed.
同位语从句的特点是由一个抽象名词+that从句构成,引导词一般是that, 而且that在从句中不充当任何成分。这些抽象名词有:news, idea, fact, doubt, evidence, promise, rumor, hope, truth, belief, message等,同位语从句是对抽象名词进行说明解释。
1. the news that our football team at last defeated korea made the fans wild with joy. c.f.: the news that made the fans wild with joy was from the radio.
2. there is much evidence that the crime rate in this city is on the rise.
3. einstein came to the conclusion that the maximum speed possible in the universe is that of light. 爱因斯坦得出的结论是宇宙中最大速度是光速。
5. 学习同位语从句
1. 从属连词that、whether引导的同位语从句。
he has the hope that he will become a co llege student. 他有上大学这么个愿望。
the question whether he should do this troubled him. 是否该做这件事这一问题使他很烦恼。
注意:由连接词that (一般不可省略) 引导的同位语从句,在句子结构上与关系代词that引导的定语从句有相似之处,但有区别:
1) the news that he ha d landed on the moon spread all over the country. 他登上月球的消息传遍全国。
2)the news that john told us interested all of us.他告诉我们的消息使大家都感趣。
解析:1)句中that从句中本身的内容就是“news ”内容本身,that在句子中不充当任何成分,起连接作用,所以,本句中的that从句 是同位语从句;而2)句中that从句说明“ news ”是怎样获得的,不涉及“news”的内容, that从句中充当 “tell”的宾语,所以,本句中的that从句 是定语从句。另外,可带同位语从句的名词主要是少数一些可加入具体内容的表示信息、思想等概念的名词,如:fact,news,idea,truth,belief,doubt,hope,possibility,order,wish,message,promise,suggestion,report,reply,problem, question, thought等。
2. 连接副词how,when,where等引导的同位语从句。
you have no idea how worried i was!你不知道我是多么着急。
6.closing down by doing a quiz
underline the appositives in the following sentences
1. my son, the policeman, will be visiting us next week.
2. the captain ordered the ship's carpenters to assemble the shallop, a large rowboat.
3. walter, the playboy and writer, is very attached to his mother, mrs. hammon.

suppose you are liu qian now. you are going to write home an imagined report on canada.
after a total flight time of 11 hours i should be tired i guess, but somehow i was in a good shape and still willing to have a first sightseeing tour around cadada.
today we went to capilano suspension bridge, a 13m long and 70m high suspension bridge. i saw quite some totems there, pretty impressing. i could also see how those totems are made by indians.
tod ay i met my distant cousin li daiyu. she is from beijing and studies in vancouver. until we could find arrangements to meet, several phone calls had to go all around the globe from canada to china and from china to canada again.

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.(nmet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。

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.(nmet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。
