What don’t you get her a scarf? 知识点拨 一、学习目标: 1. 学习谈论比较不同的东西或事情; 2. 学习用现在完成时表达曾经做过的事; 3. 学习如何给别人提出建议或意见。 二、学习重点难点: 1. How about … ? What about … ? 这两种句式都可以用来向他人提出建议,表示“……怎么样?” “你认为……如何?”,后面连接名词或者动名词(动词ing形式)。 例如: How about going to the movies? 去看电影怎么样? What about a lovely dog? 一个可爱的小狗你认为如何? 2. Why don’t you …? Why not …? 这两种句式都是反问语气,表示“为什么不……”,也可以用来向别人提出建议,后面连接动词原形。 例如: Why don’t you go with us? = Why not go with us? 为何不跟我们一块呢? 3. What’s the best gift he/she has ever received? “他/她曾经收到的最好的礼物是什么?” 这里“he/she has ever received”是一个现在完成时的句子,充当gift的定语从句,省略从句引导词that。 4. compare v. 比较;相比 compare + 名 + with / to + 名 用于比较的情形时,通常用with, 用于比喻时常用to。 例如: Compared with (to) her twin sister Jenny, Fanny is tall. 与她的孪生妹妹Jenny相比,Fanny高。 5. comment n. 评论;解释;说明 例如: He made few comments on that movie. 对于那部电影他没说什么。 No comment! (对于询问)无可奉告! 6. personal adj. 私人的,个人的,亲自的,针对个人的 例如: a personal letter 私人信件 personal opinions 个人意见 a personal interview 亲自会见 7. graduation n. 毕业;毕业典礼 graduate v. 毕业 例如: After the graduation from college, he worked in a small company. 大学毕业后,他在一家小公司工作。 8. name v. 叫做;称作;取名 例如: What are the parents going to name the baby? 那对父母打算给孩子取什么名字? Emily was named after her grandmother. Emily是以她奶奶的名字命名的。 9. too…to… 太……而不能…… 例如: George is too young to go to school. 乔治还太小,不能上学。 Grandpa is too old to read by himself. 爷爷太老了,不能自己读书看报了。 这一句型可用so…that…代替,而that后的从句多用否定句。 上面两个句子可换成: George is so young that he can’t go to school. Grandpa is so old that he can’t read by himself. 10. pro n 赞成;赞成的理由 con n. 反对,反对的理由 例如: pro-American 亲美派 the pros and cons 正反两面的意见 11. much too “太,过于……”,修饰形容词副词 too much “太多……”,修饰不可数名词 too many “太多……”,修饰可数名词 例如: The street is much too crowded. 大街上太挤了。 Don’t spend too much money on clothing. 不要花太多的钱在衣着上。 There are too many monkeys for me to count. 猴子太多,我数不过来。 12. present n.礼物 present指礼物的一般性用语,gift是稍正式的用法。另外,present还可以作为形容词,表示“现在的;出席的”。 这里有一首小诗介绍给大家: Yesterday is a history, Tomorrow is a mystery, Only today is a gift, That’s why it is called present. 本周强化练习: 一、用括号中给出的词回答问题。 1.
