教學建議一
教材內容分析
本單元是複習單元，我們要複習鞏固前面所學5個單元的內容，主要是複習一般現在時、一般過去時和含有情態動詞的被動語態和動詞不定式的用法，還有表達計量和距離等的數字表示法。本單元還學習了一些常用片語和簡單的構詞方法。透過對課文“The Universe and Man - made Satellites”的學習，我們要了解一些有關太空的常識，來激發學習的積極性，提高學習英語的興趣。課文中出現有現在完成時態的被動語態。同時，我們要能夠讀懂列車裡程表，能熟練地談論“購物、選擇電視節目”等話題，掌握相關日常用語。
本單元重點例句及詞語辨析
1. I hope I can make my own computer that way someday. 我希望有朝一日我能在家裡用那種方式製造我自己的電腦。
Someday (some day)和one day 都可以表示“總有一天；有朝一日”的意思。
【例】 Someday we’ll go there to visit you though you are too far away from us. We are all going to stay together one day. 雖然你離我們很遠，但有朝一日我們一定去看你。總有一天我們會在一起的。
2．I’m sure you can. 我確信你行。
be sure 意為“確信；確定；肯定”，其有三種用法：be sure of sth, be sure to do sth和be sure that從句。
【例】
(1) Are you sure that he is honest?
你能肯定他老實嗎？
(2)— Are you sure of it?
— Yes, I am sure.
— 你對這事有把握嗎？
— 是的，我確信。
(3)— Be sure to write to me as soon as you get there.
— Of course.
— 你一到那裡一定給我寫信。
— 當然。
3. When we talk about the universe, we mean the earth, the sun, the moon and the stars, and the space between them. 當我們談論宇宙時，我們指的是地球，太陽，月亮，星星以及它們之間的宇宙空間。
(1) 當我們談論獨一無二的事物說，要在前面加上“the”。如the earth, the sun, the moon。sky的前面必須加the。
(2) 關於space, universe, sky三個詞彙的區別
space含“宇宙空間”之意，指大氣層以外的太空領域，其前不用冠詞，space有時指“間隙；空間”，為不可數名詞。；universe含“宇宙萬物”之意，指物質，如星星、太陽、月球等，其前常用定冠詞the；sky指從地球上看，頭頂之上的“天空”，通常與定冠詞連用，多用單數形式，如果前在面有形容詞修飾，則用“a(an)+形容詞+sky”句式。
【例】
Nobody can tell exactly information about when the universe first came into being. But the spaceship travelled through space to the moon brings us hope to study it. Now satellites are used for studying the universe. And we are sure it is not God who makes the universe. We can see a clear, blue sky, and someday we will know more about it. There is no space for doubt. Is it right?
沒人能準確說出宇宙是什麼時候產生的。但是宇宙飛船登陸月球給我帶來研究它的希望。現在衛星用於研究宇宙。我們確信了不是上帝創造了宇宙。我們能看到一個湛藍、明朗的天空，總有一天，我們會了解到更多。我們沒有懷疑的餘地。不是嗎？
4. The moon travels round the earth. 月球圍繞地球轉。
（1）travel 在句中意為move, go等，travel還可作“旅行；傳播”講，
【例】He has never travelled to the big cities in the north of China.他從沒有旅行過中國北方的大城市。
Light travels faster than sound. 光比聲音傳播得快。
（2）round, around兩詞都可與動詞連用，但與前者連用的動詞具有活動性；與後者連用的動詞帶有靜止性，
【例】The students are running round a chair to play a game. 學生們正圍著椅子跑，做遊戲。
We often sit around the old man and listen to his interesting stories. 我們經常圍坐在那個老人周圍聽他講有趣的故事。
5. Many of the stars cannot be seen because they are too far away.
satellite，plane與star這三個單詞有相近的含義，但它們的用法各不相同。satellite表示“衛星”，planet表示“行星”，star表示“星星”。
(1)satellite具體來說，有兩種含義：一種是指衛星，也就是說圍繞行星執行的天體，它本是不發光。
【例】The moon is a satellite of the earth．
月亮是地球的衛星。
另一種意義是人造衛星，即：圍繞著某個天體轉的由人類發射的衛星。
【例】A new artificial satellite has been launched again by China．
中國又發射了一顆新人造衛星。
其他與satellite連用的名詞。
【例】a satellite station 衛星電臺
a manned satellite 載入衛星
(2) planet是“行星”，也就是說圍繞太陽運轉的天體，本身不發光，只能反射太陽光。例如：
Do you know the nine major planets?
你知道九大行星嗎？
（九個行星是：Mercury 水星；Venus金星；the Earth地球；Mars火星；Jupiter 木星； Saturn土星；Uranus天王星；Neptune海王星；Pluto冥王星）
(3) star是“恆星；星星”，它有兩層含義：一是泛指夜晚我們天空中見到的所有的天體；二是其本身能發光和熱的天體。
【例】the evening star 昏星
the morning star 晨星
the North star 北極星
另外：star還有其他的意義：
the Red Flag with Five Stars 五星紅旗
film stars 影星（電影明星）
famous stars明星
6. So far, no man has traveled farther than the moon, but spaceships without people have reached other parts of the universe. 到目前為止，還沒有人到達比月球更遠的地方，但是無人駕駛宇宙飛船已經到達宇宙的其他地方。
(1) so far 的意思是到目前為止，可解釋成“until now, up to now”。
【例】They have been to many cities in the south so far. 到目前為止，他們已經去過許多城市了。= They have been to many cities in the south up to now.
(2) without的意思是“無；沒有”。它可以用來完成同義句的改寫。
【例】Fish can’t live if there is no water. 魚兒離不開水。= Fish can’t live without water.
(3) These satellites go round the earth and … 這些衛星圍繞地球執行……
注意：客觀存在的事實在表示一般過去時的句子中做賓語從句，依舊用一般現在時，表示客觀真理。如：Our teacher told us that the sun is round.
7. Our knowledge of the universe is growing all the time. 我們對宇宙的認識一直在增長。
(1) knowledge是know的名詞形式，作“知識；學問”講，是不可數名詞。one’s knowledge of…的意思是“對……的認識/瞭解。”knowledge 的前面若有定語修飾，可與a連用，表示“對……某種程度的瞭解”。
【例】Your knowledge of English is weak. He has a good knowledge of study.
你的英語知識較差。他對學習很在行。
(2) grow作及物動詞時，表示“種植”；作不及物動詞時，表示“生長；成長；增長；發展；漸漸變成”等意思。
【例】Chinese people are growing more trees to protect their environment．Those trees are growing well．中國人民正在種更多的樹以保護環境。那些樹長得很好。
She has grown into a pretty girl．But she grows older and older as well．
她長成了一個漂亮的姑娘。但她同時（年紀）也變得越來越大了。
(3) all the time的意思是“一直”，在句中作狀語。
【例】We have been here all the time．我們一直都在這兒。
8. The world itself is becoming a much smaller place and people from different countries
now understand each other better. 世界的本身正變得更小，來自不同國家的人們彼此間能更好地相互瞭解。
反身代詞itself在句中做主語the world 的同位語。
【例】Tom himself learns English day and night. I myself will go to the farm to help the farmers.
湯姆自己日日夜夜地學習英語。我自己也將去農場幫助農民。
9．Man-made satellites are about 8,000 kilometres away from the earth．
人造衛星離地球大約有八千公里遠。
(1) 這是距離的一種表示方法，距離的表示方法還有：
It’s about 200 metres from my home to our school. = Our school is about 200 metres from my home.
從我家到學校大約有二百米。
The city is about two thousand kilometres by train (from here)．
（從這兒）乘火車去那座城市約有二千公里。
It’s two hours by plane from here to that city.
從這兒乘飛機到那座城市需要二小時。
The post office is about ten minutes’ walk from here．
從這兒步行去郵局大約要十分鐘。
(2) earth, world與globe
1) earth作“地球”解，需加the。：
【例】We live on the earth. 我們生活在地球上。
The moon goes round the earth. 月亮圍著地球轉。
In the Middle Ages it was generally believed that the earth was the center of the universe.
中世紀時，一般人都相信地球是宇宙的中心。
Do you know what the earth satellite is?
你知道什麼是地球衛星嗎？
2) on earth 有兩種意思：第一種含義等於in the world，用在不定詞或疑問詞what, who when, where, why, how的後面，作強調語。
【例】No force in the world / on earth can hold back the wheel of history.
沒有任何力量可以阻止歷史車輪的前進。
What on earth/in the world is the matter there?
那裡究竟發生了什麼事情？
Where in the world/on earth can he be?
他到底在哪兒呢？
He didn’t know how in the world/on earth to answer．
他不知道究竟如何回答。
第二種含義：on earth表示“在世界上，在人間”，不用冠詞，在這個意義上，on earth等於in the world。
【例】China is one of the greatest nations on earth/in the world．
中國是世界上最偉大的國家之一。
She must be the happiest woman on earth/in the world．
她一定是天底下最幸福的女性。
3）world是“世界”，兼指“全世界的人”。
【例】The whole world is hoping that there will be a lasting peace．
全世界都希望有一個持久的和平。
Egyptian civilization is among the oldest in the world．
埃及文化是世界上最古老的文化之一。

現在我們乘飛機只需幾天的工夫就可以繞地球一週。
（這裡強調的是：globe圓形，球狀體的地球）
a terrestrial globe 地球儀
a celestial globe 天體儀
10．How many kilometres by train is it from Nanjin
g to Wuhan?
從南京到武漢乘火車有多遠？
這是一個問兩地距離的句型。it 代表距離，from … to 表示“從某處到某處”。
How many kilometres by air is it from Shanghai to Beijing ?
it在句中指代“路程”，同時，它也可以指代“時間，天氣，人物”等。
It is colder in Hefei than in Wuhu. 合肥比蕪湖冷。（it指氣候）
What time is it by your watch? 你的表上是幾點鐘了？（it指時間）
It is Mike speaking. 我就是Mike. （it指人物）
還有一種詢問距離的句型，它不是具體地問有多少公里，而是問“有多遠”。句中直接用地名作主語，不用 it 作形式主語。
【例】— How far away is Sydney from Beijing ? 悉尼離北京有多遠?
— Sydney is 10, 400 kilometres away from Beijing . 悉尼離北京是10，400公里遠。

教學建議三
關於閱讀課文的教學建議
本單元第46課是一篇題為“The universe and man-made satellites”的課文，是一篇科技小品。為了引起學生的閱讀興趣，建議讓學生帶著問題有目的地進行閱讀，或在閱讀前讓學生猜測課文內容，然後再閱讀課文，證實他們的猜測。具體做法是：
l．學生們討論以下問題，並試著回答這些問題。
What do we mean when we talk about the universe?
Why can’t many stars be seen?
How far is the moon away from the earth?
Has the moon been visited by man already?
Have any man-made machines travelled farther than the moon? What are they?
What do you know about the universe?
Why do we say the world itself is becoming smaller and smaller?
2．或者教師根據每個自然段內容，設定如下概括性問題：
1) What do we mean when we talk about the universe?
2) Do you know anything about the moon? Try to say something about it.
3) What is a man-made satellite? Whats it used for?
4) Please say something about peoples knowledge of the universe.
教師可將學生們的回答簡單地板書在黑板的一側。然後讓他們開啟書閱讀課文。
學生們閱讀後，教師帶著他們驗證猜測。在這個過程中，實際上教師是在讓學生熟悉本課的大意，並接觸課文中的句型和詞語。教師在黑板的另一側板書課文中的關鍵詞，與學生們的猜測答案相對照。下一步讓學生逐段複述課文。反覆數次後，讓學生做根據課文某段所改編的完形填空題。如：
The universe means the earth, the sun, the moon and the stars, and the space ______ them. Many of the stars are so ______ away that we ______ see them.
The moon, our ______, travelled ______ the earth. It has been visited _____ man in spaceships.
Man-made ______ have been sent up ______ space by many countries. They go ______ the earth. They are used for helping us to learn more ______ the earth, the weather and other things. They are also used for sending and ______ messages. It makes people ______ different countries understand each other better. So people say the world
itself is becoming a much ______ place. People call the small place “the global village”.
Answers:
between, far, can not, satellite, round, by, satellites, into, round, about, receiving, from, smaller
學生在做這個練習答案的過程中，即複習了本課的詞語，又掌握了與課文內容相關的新表達方式。這樣他們完成其他練習也就不難了。教師可繼續讓他們將這個練習中的語句與課文作比較，找出異同，例如：
1) 課文—Many of the stars cannot be seen because they are too far away.
練習—Many of the stars are so far away that we cannot see them.
2) 課文—The moon travels round the earth. It is our satellite.
練習—The moon, our satellite, travels round the earth.
在這種比較過程中，學生又一次熟悉了課文內容及詞語，特別是被動語態的用法。與此同時也鍛鍊了他們的思維能力，認識到英語語言表達靈活的特點，為下一步第48課的詞彙教學做好輔墊。
關於數字表達方法的教學建議
在教授第47課時，為了給學生創造更多的機會，教師可提供火車列車時刻表中全國各主要城市間的距離表或世界各地航空路程表，將其放大製成掛圖，貼在黑板上。可先根據 Practise的內容，讓學生做快速的連鎖問答，使他們熟悉句型和數字，並達到脫口而出的熟練程度。然後練習Ask and answer可的材料。其中的重要句型是：
1 ) How many kilometres by train is it from… to…?
2) How far away is…from…?
3) What about …?
教師要求學生用自己的詞填入空缺的部分，這樣可以造出許多句子，而且還可以複習或預習課文中出現的詞語。例如：
1 ) How many li by air is it from … to…?
2) How far away is the earth from the moon?
3) What about other planet?
練習表示數量的方式有許多種，例如教師將一摞書帶到課堂上，讓學生猜每本書的頁數。
做這樣的對話：
T: How many pages do you think this book has?
SI: I think about 120.
T: No. The number is too small.
S2: What about 500?
T: Oh, thats too big.
S3: How about 250?
T: Thats quite right. 265.
在初中英語第一冊和第二冊中，我們已經陸續學習了數字的用法，教師可幫助學生回憶它們的念法，並做快速連鎖問答。還可就長度、高度、重量等做問答，例如：How long is the Yellow River? How heavy is your bag? How tall/high is that tree?等等。
關於詞語及對話練習的教學建議
本單元的生詞大部分出現在閱讀課文之中。而針對詞彙的練習主要由48課的2和3兩部分組成。即構詞法的部分知識和有關選擇電視節目的對話及詞語練習。
首先，在教學構詞法知識時，教師可採取提供部分例詞，要求學生透過觀察自己總結出構詞規則的方式，讓學生對構詞法知識的認識從感性認識上升到理性認識，從而印象深刻， 記憶牢固。
現根據構詞法將第一冊到第三冊中出現的有關單詞歸類如下：
複合名詞：afternoon basketball bedroom birthday blackboard bookseller bookshop breakfast classmate classroom day-time doorbell Englishman fireplace football gate-keeper gateman grandparents granddaughter grandson handbag headache headmaster headteacher hometown homework housework kilometre know-all loudspeaker mooncake motorbike northeast northwest
pencil-box penfriend photograph playground policeman postcard railway reading-room shopkeeper southeast southwest spaceship sunrise sunshine teapot teamwork volleyball weekday
名詞變形容詞：interesting surprising northern southern woolen
動詞變名詞（結尾-er/or）：
cleaner driver inventor keeper teacher speaker traveller visitor worker
其次，提供討論選擇電視或電臺節目的對話的教學過程（）。
建議教師先向學生展示電視和電臺節目表，如下表：
TV: 1. Programme for Children Radio: 1. Music World
2. 9—part Series: Family (2) 2. News Report
3. China Reports 3. Foreign Languages Magazine
4. Series: Women 4. Window on Chinese History
5. Chinese Programmes for Foreigners
6. Music Bridge
7. Basketball Match (Beijing Vs Henan)
將主要句型提供給學，如下：
1) Which TV/radio programme shall we watch/listen to?
2) Which TV/radio programme do you think is more interesting/enjoyable?
3) Well, I dont think any of them is interesting/enjoyable.
4) I think I shall …instead.
5) Why dont you go and … instead?
6) Good idea. That is much better than … /…is better than…
學生看錶進行對話練習。按全班、半班、兩人小組操練句型，直至熟練為止。建議教師依靠表格和角色扮演等手段，讓學生先口頭熟悉對話內容，並採取各種形式進行口頭操練，然後再據此完成不同的筆頭練習。教師應鼓勵學生積極思維，創造性地編出不同的對話。例如：
1) A: Which TV programme shall we watch? I cant decide.
B: Which do you think is more interesting?
A: Well, I think the children’s programme is more enjoyable.
B: Which channel is it on?
A: It is usually found on Channel 3. Try that.
B: Ive tried that. But I cant get it.
2) A: What are you doing?
B: Im trying to find our favourite TV programme—sports.
A: Have you got it yet?
B: No. I dont know which channel it is on.
A: It must be on Channel 14. Try that.
B: OK . But this is not sports.
A: Well, I dont think any of the programmes is interesting. I think I shall listen to the radio instead. Why dont you join me? It must be more enjoyable.

探究活動
讀文談感受
讀下面關於時間的小資料，然後談一談自己的感受。
A punctual(守時的) person is in the habit of doing a thing at the proper time and is never late in keeping an appointment.
The unpunctual man, on the other hand, never does what he has to do at the proper time. He is always in a hurry and in the end loses both time and his good name. There is a proverb(
諺語) which says, Time flies never to be recalled(召回). This is very true. A lost thing may be found again, but lost time can never be regained. Time is more valuable than material things. In fact time is life itself, and the unpunctual man is for ever wasting and mismanaging his most valuable asset(財產) as well as others. The unpunctual man is always complaining that he finds no time to answer letters, or return calls or keep appointments promptly. But the man who really has a great deal to do is very careful of his time and seldom complains of want of it. He knows that he can not get through his immense amount of work unless he faithfully keeps every appointment promptly and deals with every piece of work when it has to be attended to.
用英語複述
讀下面的小文章，試著用英語複述。
你旅行時在時間上會發生很多奇怪的事，因為地球分為24個時區，一區相差一小時。有些天可能多於或少於24小時，有些星期可能多於或少於7天。
如果你用五天時間橫渡大西洋，你乘的船每天都進入一個不同的時區。你進入每一時區，時間就改變一小時。向西行，你把鍾往後撥；向東行，則往前撥。你旅行的每一天都有25或23小時。
如果你乘船橫渡太平洋，你就會越過國際日期變更線。根據協議，這是新一天開始的地方。你越過該線，就得把你的日曆向後或向前改動一整天。向東行，今天變成了昨天；向西行，今天變成了明天！
參考答案：
Strange things happen to time when you travel, because the earth is divided into twenty-four time zones(時區), one hour apart. You can have days with more or fewer than twenty-four hours, and weeks with more or fewer than seven days.
If you make a five-day drip across the Atlantic Ocean(大西洋)，your ship enters a different time zone every day. As you enter each zone, the time changes one hour. Traveling west, you set your clock back; traveling east, you set it ahead. Each day of your trip has either twenty-five or twenty-three hours.
If you travel by ship across the Pacific(太平洋)， you cross the international date line(國際日期變更線). By agreement, this is the point where a new day begins. When you cross the line, you change your calendar one full day, backward or forward. Traveling east, today becomes yesterday; traveling west, it is tomorrow!
總結如何來做筆記
先在課堂上討論如何做筆記和如何使用筆記。把主要的結論寫在黑板上，讓學生選出一條結論在課後進行擴寫，一句話或兩句話即可，可使用字典等工具書，內容要有生詞、主從句、動詞不定式、被動語態等語法專案。第二天或第在下節課上出示範句。
範句：
字跡清楚
Accurate, legible(字跡清楚的) notes are invaluable(非常寶貴的) aids to the student who is enrolled in a lecture course.
不但在聽講時,還在課前預習課文時
Notes should be taken during lectures, and when the student is reading the texts prior to each session of the course.
能聽進很多內容，只記下教師所講內容的要點
The key to good note-taking is to be able to listen a lot and to write only as much as is needed to record the essence(精華) of a point or idea presented by the lecturer.
辨別出主要論點和意見，並記下其概要
Students should endeavor(努力去) to identify only the main points and ideas being presented and to write them down in outline(概要) form.
力爭把筆記第一次記好
Students should also strive(力爭) to take good notes the first time and not plan to recopy notes - or to do so only when clarity and conciseness demand it
再把筆記複習
Students should review their notes for about five minutes on the same day that they take them, and go over them again for about half an hour at least once a week, according to a regular schedule or plan.
小結
There is no course syllabus(大綱) to be memorized; instead, the examination will be based on the material presented in the lectures and textbooks.
總結複習的重要性
組織學生們用英語來講一講複習的重要性。教師根據學生們提出的想法及時進行總結。
參考資料
Most forgetting takes place immediately after learning. An hour after studying or learning something new, more than 50% has been forgotten. After one month 80% has been forgotten and so on.
This shows that review is very important. If you review new material you have learnt, you remember much more. Its important to review newly learnt material a little and often. Its also necessary to have frequent breaks(間歇). We best remember what we learn at the beginning of a learning period and at the point where we stop. After the break, its necessary to review what was learnt before the break - and then to continue learning the new material.
Other experiments have shown that the brain needs time to digest what has been learnt. The time necessary for this is 5 to 10 minutes. After a break of this time the memory will have absorbed what it has just learnt, and more will be remembered.
