Unit 5　Canada—“The True North”‎ Period 3　Learning about language: Grammar 整体设计 教材分析 This is the third teaching period of this unit. To test whether students have grasped the important and difficult language points they learned in the last period, the teacher should first offer them some revision exercises. Then lead in the new lesson.‎ This teaching period mainly deals with the following: 1. Reviewing noun clauses as the subject; 2. Learning the new grammar item: noun clauses as the appositive. Students often feel noun clauses abstract and difficult to learn, so it is necessary to make the lesson interesting and lively, and connect it with their daily life in order to let it easy to accept and understand. Firstly, the teacher can ask students to read the passage A TRIP ON “THE TRUE NORTH” again, tick out all the sentences from the passage where noun clauses are used as appositive, and then translate them into Chinese. Secondly, compare and discover the uses of each noun clause by giving a lot of example sentences. Thirdly, do the exercises in Discovering useful structures on Page 37 and more exercises for students to master the related noun clauses. Finally, summarize the use of noun clauses as appositive and let students make it clear how each noun clause is being used in the situations.‎ At the end of the class, ask students to do the exercises in Using structures on Pages 71-72 and more additional exercises for consolidation.‎ 教学重点 Get students to understand and use noun clauses as the appositive.‎ 教学难点 Enable students to learn how to use noun clauses as the appositive correctly.‎ 三维目标 知识目标 ‎1.

Summing up: noun clauses as the appositive.‎ 同位语从句 在主从复合句中, 用作同位语的从句, 叫同位语从句。它一般跟在某些名词(如fact, news, idea, truth, hope, problem, information, wish, promise, answer, evidence, report, explanation, suggestion, conclusion等)的后面, 用以说明或解释前面的名词。‎ ‎1. 连接词:‎ ‎1)从属连词: that, whether等, 例如:‎ 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。‎ 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。‎ ‎2)连接代词: what, who等, 例如:‎ Next comes the question what you want to put in the box.‎ 其次就是这个问题: 你要在盒子里放些什么。‎ I have no idea who he is. 我不知道他是谁。‎ ‎3)连接副词: how, when, why等, 例如:‎ I have no impression how he came back, perhaps by bike.‎ 我记不得他是怎样回来的, 也许是骑自行车回来的。‎ I have no idea when he will be back.‎ 我不知道他何时回来。‎ ‎2. 同位语从句和定语从句的区别:‎ 从形式上看, 同位语从句和定语从句很相似, 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。‎ ‎1)同位语从句对名词加以补充说明, 是名词全部内容的体现; 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。例如:‎ The news that our team has won is true.‎ 我们队获胜的消息是真的。（同位语从句）‎ The news that you heard is not true.‎ 你听到的消息不真实。（定语从句）‎ ‎2)that在同位语从句中不担任句子成分, 是从属连词; that在定语从句中担任句子成分, 是关系代词。例如:‎ The fact that we succeeded pleased everybody.‎ 我们成功了, 这一事实使大家很高兴。（同位语从句）‎ The fact that we talked about is very important.‎ 我们所谈论的事实是非常重要的。（定语从句）‎ ‎→Step 4 Grammar practice ‎1.
