Unit3AtasteofEnglishhumour
本单元的中心话题是“英语幽默”。
这是一篇描写人的文章,介绍了世界著名的电影演员、戏剧大师查理·卓别林以及他在无声电影时代的精湛表演;特别是在著名影片<<淘金记>>中,他运用滑精,夸张的动作表情,让观众在捧腹大笑之余,体会在琐屑、卑微之中所隐含的深刻本质。
阅读教学是单元整体教学中的重要内容。
这是本单元的第二课时(第一课时的内容是:
warming-up,usinglanguage中的readingandspeaking)。
新课标教学原则指出:
高中英语课程要特别着重培养学生用英语获取信息、处理信息和传达信息的能力、分析和解决问题的能力以及用英语进行思维和表达能力。

Step6Languagepoints
1.【原文再现】AsVictorHugooncesaid,“Laughteristhesunthatdriveswinterfromthehumanface”,anduptonownobodyhasbeenabletodothisbetterthanCharlieChaplin.维克多·雨果曾经说过,“笑容如阳光,驱走人们脸上的冬天”。
关于这一点,直到今天也没有人能比查理·卓别林做得更好。
(Page18)
【知识点1】as在此引导定语从句,修饰后面整个句子,此时,定语从句的位置比较灵活,可放在句首、句中或句末,译为“正如,正像”。
Asyoucanimagine,Iamshortenoughofmoney.正如你所想象的那样,我很缺钱。
Hewasateacher,aswasclearfromhismanner.正如根据他的举止所断定的,他是一位老师。
【经典考例】
(2004北京卷改编)____isreportedinthenewspapers,talksbetweenthetwocountriesaremakingprogress.
A.ItB.C.ThatD.What
解析:
As.as在句中引导非限制性定语从句,并且在句中作主语,代替下句整个意思。
意为“正如报纸所报道的那样”。
【知识点2】uptonow意为“迄今;到现在为止”,是多用于现在完成时的时间状语,常可与untilnow,bynow,sofar互换。
和现在完成时连用的时间状语还有inthepastfewyears.如:
Uptonow,about30foreigncompanieshavesetupbranchesinthisdevelopingzone.到现在为止,已有大约30家外国公司在这个开发区设立了分公司。
【知识点3】在..nobodyhasbeenabletodothisbetterthanCharlieChaplin.中,当形容词或副词的比较级出现在否定句中时,往往不表示否定的意义而是表示充分的肯定。
如:
—Ithinkstudentsshouldhavemoreoftheirowntime.Don‘tyouthinkso?
我认为学生应该有更多的属于他们自己的时间。
你不这么认为吗?
—Ican’tagreemore.(=Icompletelyagree.)完全赞同。
【经典考例】
1).Yourstoryisperfect;I’veneverheard_____before.
A.thebetteroneB.thebestoneC.abetteroneD.agoodone
2).—Didyouenjoyyourselfattheparty?
—Yes.I'veneverbeento_____onebefore.
A.amoreexcitedB.themoatexcited
C.amoreexcitingD.themostexciting
析:
1).B。
“never/no/nothing…+比较级”表示最高级含义,常译为:
“没有比…更…的”。
从前一句可看出,作者是在极力赞扬这个故事,所以用Ihavenotheardabetterbefore.意为“我以前从未见过比这更好的了”。
2).C.从上文可知,答者是在极力赞扬这晚会,意为“我以前从未参加过比这更好的晚会”。
2.【原文再现】Thenhecutsofftheleathertopoftheshoeasifitwerethefineststeak.(Page18)然后他把皮鞋上端的皮子切下来,就像是切下一块最好的牛排。
【名师点拨】句中asif引导状语从句。
asif从句中的内容有时有主观想像或夸大性的比喻,此时从句中常用虚拟语气。
若从句中的动词与主句谓语动词同时发生,则从句谓语动词用过去时;若先于主句则用过去完成时,若后于主句,则用过去将来时。
Helooksasifhewereanartist.(同时)他看起来就像是一位艺术家。
HespeaksEnglishsofluentlyasifhehadstudiedEnglishinAmerica.(先于)他说英语如此流利好像他在美国学过一样。
HelearnsEnglishsohardasifhewouldgototheUSA.(后于)他学英语如此努力就像他会去美国一样。
3.【原文再现】…,sotheycouldfeelmorecontentwiththeirlives.所以他们对自己的生活很满意。
1)contentadj.满足的,满意的,知足的
becontentwithsth.
becontenttodosth.
Areyoucontentwithyourpresentsalary?
Sheisquitecontenttostayathomelookingafterherchildren.
2)contentvt.使满意,使满足
contentsb./oneselfwithsth.使…满足于…
Icontentmyselfwithaglassofcoffeeeveryday.
3)contentn.所含之物,内容,目录
IlikethestyleofthebookbutIdon’tlikethecontent.
4.【原文再现】NotthatCharlie’sownlifewaseasy!
倒不是说卓别林的生活好。
notthat用于句首或短语之前表示否定含义,“倒不是;并不是说”。
NotthatIhatethework.I'mnotstrongenoughforit.
NotthatIdislikethetask,butthatIamnotequaltoit.
NotthatIlovedCaesarless,butthatIlovedRomemore.
5.【原文再现】Unfortunately,hisfatherdied,leavingthefamilyevenworseoff.不幸的是,他的父亲死了使家庭的生活更加贫困。
1)badlyoff穷困的,缺少的
beworseoff情况更坏的,恶化的
bewelloff富裕的,处境好的
bebetteroff(尤指经济)境况较好的
Theyaretoobadlyofftohaveaholiday.
Infactmostpeoplearebetteroffthantheywerefiveyearsago.
2)leavingthefamilyevenworseoff为现在分词短语作结果状语。
Footballisplayedinover100countries,makingitthemostpopulargameintheworld.有100多个国家开展足球运动,使它成为世界上最受欢迎的运动。
5.YoumayfinditastonishingthatCharliewastaughttosingassoonashecouldspeakanddanceassoonashecouldwalk.(Page18)你会觉得震惊,卓别林会讲话的时候就被教唱歌,会走路的时候就学跳舞。
【名师点拨】此句中it作形式宾语,that从句是真正的主语;astonishing是动词-ing形式作宾语补足语。
astonishingadj.惊人的
Thecarrushedatthebridgeatastonishingspeed.
astonishv.使…惊讶
Thenewsastonishedeveryone.
【用法拓展】
astonishedadj.惊讶的
Shewasastonishedtofindhewasdrunk.
Hewasmuchastonishedthatyouhadfailed.
Iwasastonishedat/bythenews.
astonishmentn.惊异;惊愕;惊奇
inastonishment愕然地,吃惊地
Shestaredatmeinastonishment.
toone’sastonishment令某人惊讶的是…
Toourastonishment,thesmallboyswamacrosstheriver
