牛津高中英语模块二(第一讲)

主讲教师:邵磊

主审: 孙德霖

【教学内容与教学要求】

教学内容:

牛津高中英语模块二Unit 1(上)

二、教学要求:

1.学会谈论有关宇宙空间的简单话题。

2.学习阅读英语新闻综述。

3.理解现在完成时和现在完成进行时的意义和用法。

【知识重点与学习难点】

重要单词:

tale, unexplained, .alien, mystery, technology, monster, sunken(adj) stonehenge, pyramid, disappearance, multi-coloured, nightmare, detective, format, detail, paragraph, Yeti, puzzle(n&v), sighting, witness, creature, research, frighten, case, murder, convincing, evidence, typical, outer, progress, treasure, lately, website, wild, similar, hairy, strength, footprint, existence, inch, exploration, orbit, launch, artificial, astronaut, oxygen.

二、重点词组:

run into碰到, believe in相信(信仰、理论、说法等), step up加紧, go missing失踪, show great interest in对….表现出极大的兴趣, due to因为, show up露面, according to根据, pull back拉开, do research on在….方面进行研究, rule out排除, look into调查, make up编造, take charge of负责, make a speech作报告, so far到目前为止, outer space外层空间, human beings人类, space shuttle航天飞机, Soviet Union苏联, carry out.完成, 实现, 贯彻, 执行, dream of梦想, come true实现, solar system太阳系, comic strip连环漫画.

三、【语法】

A.现在完成时

1.现在完成时态的构成:现在完成时是由助动词have/has+过去分词构成。

2.在现完成时 表示动作完成在过去,强调对现在造成的影响或结果,常与already,just,ever,never和yet等连用。表示曾去过某处have / has been;表示某人去某处(还没有回来)用have / has gone。例如:I have just locked the door.

He has left London for York.

3.表示过去已经开始,持续到现在的动作或状态,有以下几种情况:

与for + 表示一段时间的词组连用。例如:I have worked here for 20 years.

与since + 表示过去某一时刻的词或词组连用。例如:They have had 4 meetings since the new term began.4. 非延续性动词与可延续性动词 两者都可用于现在完成时,但非延续性动词用在现在完成时时不能与表示一段时间的时间状语连用。如果必须这样用,就需要把非延续性动词转化为可延续性动词或状态动词。

He has been back for three days. He has been back since three days ago. It's three days since he came back. Three days has passed since he came back.B.现在完成进行时

构成:have/has been+doing

现在完成进行时是一兼有现在完成时和现在进行时二者基本特点的时态。由于它有现在完成时的特点,所以它可以表示某一动作对现在产生的结果或影响。由于它有现在进行时的特点,所以它也可以表示某一动作的延续性、临时性、重复性。现在完成进行时比较生动,有时含有明显的感情色彩,例如:

The couple have been quarreling ever since they got married.(说话人对这对夫妻的关系很不以为然)

You have been asking me questions for the last two hours.(不耐烦)

现在完成进行时可以用来表示一个动作从过去某时开始一直延续到说话时刻还在进行。例如:

He has been working on the puzzle since early morning.

We have been waiting for the result for half a day.

现在完成进行时可以用来表示一个动作从过去某时开始一直延续到说话时刻刚刚结束。例如:

Where have you been? We have been looking for you everywhere.

I have been wondering about your behavior.

3. 现在完成进行时可以用来表示过去刚刚完成的动作,其结果对现在有影响或联系,例如:

She has been crying(她现在眼睛还在红肿).

It has been snowing.(地上已经有了一层雪).

【难点讲解】

The world we live in today is full of mysteries unsolved even by today’s advanced science and technology.

我们生活的世界里充满了谜团, 这些谜团即使是当今发达的科学技术也无法解开。

过去分词短语unsolved even by today’s advanced science and technology是mysteries的定语,它的作用相当于定语从句which are unsolved even by today’s advanced science and technology。当定语从句是由关系代词+be动词+过去分词或现在分词短语构成时,关系代词和be动词可以省略。例如:

Stories (which were) made up by him didn’t sound very convincing.

People (who are) living in these areas believe in ghosts.

Advanced 先进的、发达的。

Police in America have stepped up their search for a fifteen-year-old boy who went missing in Dover, New Hampshire.

美国警方现已加紧对一名15岁失踪男孩的搜索,该男孩于两天前在新罕布什尔州的多佛市失踪。

step up加紧,如: step up production, step up the campaign, step up the lobby(加紧游说)

search在句中作名词,常见词组有one’s/the search for(对…的搜索、探求),in search of(为了寻求)。例如:

His search for truth has led to one discovery after another.

He risked his life in search of truth.

Police是集体名词,形式上永远是单数,和复数动词连用。

People have shown great interest in his disappearance due to sighting of puzzling lights in the sky and reports of alien visits around the time of his disappearance.

公众对男孩的失踪表现出极大的兴趣,原因是在他失踪前后有人声称看到天空中出现令人迷惑不解的亮光,还有关于外星人造访地球的报道。

Standing inside were lots of white-skinned, strange-looking creatures with large black eyes.

(飞碟)里面站着许多白皮肤、样子奇怪、长着黑色大眼睛的生物。

这是个倒装句,这句话的正常语序是:Lots of white-skinned, strange-looking creatures with large black eyes were standing inside. 当句子的主语部分太长,或说话人想要强调对动作的描写时,可以把现在分词短语和主语部分的位置交换,形成“现在分词短语+be动词+主语部分”的倒装结构。例如:

Lying there was a thin, black woman with untidy hair and stony face.

Coming up is a talk show by our famous host Peter Pan.

white-skinned白皮肤的,这是一个由形容词+名词+ed构成的复合形容词,中学阶段常见的还有: kind-hearted, bold-faced, ill-tempered等。

strange-looking样子奇怪的。形容词/副词+动词+ing也可以构成的复合形容词,例如:good-looking, easy-going(好相处的), never-ending, ever-lasting.

believe和believe in

believe+sb表示“相信某人的话”,believe+sth表示“相信某事的真实性”。例如:

I believe George, he has never told a lie.

Do you believe his story?

Believe in+sb表示“信任某人”,believe in+sth表示“相信某事的存在、信仰某种学说或宗教”。例如:

I believe in Ed, he will never let me down (让我失望).

I don’t believe in UFO.

He believes in Maxism.

search和search for

search+搜查的对象,例如:search the house, search the prisoner.

Search for+,例如:search for gold, search for food.

也可以是:search+搜查的对象+搜索的目标。例如:search the house for the thief

make up编造, make up for补偿、弥补, be made up of由….构成. 例如:

We had to work day and night to make up for the lost time.

He made up this story simply to draw attention to himself.

The exploration team was made up of 4 scientists, a doctor and an Indian guide.

go作为系动词用法小结:

表示“变得”,常和有关颜色、状态、质地的形容词或词组连用,例如:

a. His hair has gone gray.

b. He went purple(发紫)with anger.

c. The company went broke (破产)after such a heavy loss.

d. Milk goes bad (变质)very easily in hot weather.

e. The children went wild with excitement (高兴地发狂).

f. The project can be finished in a week if nothing goes wrong.

表示“选择….样的方式、采用….的方法”,例如:go natural回归自然, go international国际化, go native融入当地社会, go green追求绿色生活。

表示“未受到…”, 常和un+过去分词构成的形容词unpunished/ unnoticed/ unchallenged/ uncommented等连用,相当于“pass/get away without being+过去分词”,例如:

Many important details have gone unnoticed while he was listening.

If his cheating goes unpunished, more students will follow suit(跟着学).

We have already read the book on UFO.

We haven’t been in town lately.

在与since引导的时间状语从句连用时,主句有时可以用一般现在时。例如:

It is dull here since you left.

3)表示包括现在时间在内的时间状语,如 now, today, this morning, this year, just等。例如:

Appropriate:恰当的、得体的(主要指言行,穿着打扮等符合风俗习惯或道德规范)

Yetis are said to be heavily built and hairy.

据说.(西藏高原的)雪人体格健壮、多毛。

Be said to be 据说是。如He is said to be the second son of a millionaire.

工程师们追赶野人,而野人以惊人的速度和体力逃走。

单独表示“以…速度”时,要用介词at, 如at top speed, at a speed of 75mph。但和其他名词一起使用时,介词则视上下文而定。

It could have made its way to other parts of the word and live on until today.

野人后来可能迁徙到世界其他地方并存活至今。

Make one’s way to来到,近意词组是find one’s way to.例如:

He made his way through the crowd to the front.

The group should discuss the information found, and decide what to include in the story and what to leave out.

各组应讨论找到的信息并决定在故事里包括什么、舍弃什么。

过去分词found后置作定语,修饰information,去作用相当于定语从句which were found。注意,过去分词前置和后置有时意思不一样。例如:

All parties concerned are present.(相关各方都到了)

There is a concerned look on his face.(他脸上露出关切的表情)

Part One: Teaching Design

第一部分 教学设计

Aims and requirements

Read a formal proposal and summaries of three science fiction novels.

Listen to facts and opinions and an interview about computer use.

Discuss your views on technology and interview a classmate about his or her computer use.

Write a proposal for a computer room and a short science fiction story.

Procedures

● Welcome to the Unit

Step 1: Brainstorming

1. As is known, most people love reading science fiction stories. These stories allow people to use their imagination and think about what life will be like in the future. What do you like most about science fiction stories? In order for all of us to have a good understanding of the text, try to design and make a poster for one of the science fiction stories you were asked to brought to class. How did you feel when you were reading the story? Draw several pictures which highlight the main characters and scenes in the story. You may also choose one scene in the story that you liked the most and draw one picture of this scene.

2. Please tell your science fiction story in groups of four. Then I’ll ask a few students to tell your stories in front of the class.

3. Now I’d like to ask you some questions which will help you to find out the main characteristics of science fiction stories.

What do you like most about science fiction stories, the characters, plot or the language used?

Why do you think so many people are interested in science fiction stories?

( Because they allow people to use their imagination and think about what life will be like in the future.)

4. Now look, here’s a stick in my hand. This stick is a ‘magic wand” and it can be used to make things happen in the future. Please have a discussion about the following questions and express your opinions freely.

What will life be like in the year 2080?

What would you like to happen by 2080?

What would you not like to see in 2080?

If you could use the magic wand to make one thing happen in the future, what would it be?

5. Read the instructions and focus on the four pictures. Discuss the pictures in pairs. (P41)

Picture 1:

What is the robot doing in this picture? (Serving dinner for the master.)

What else can a robot do?

Do you think robots can do everything for humans? Why or why not? (Robots can do a lot of repetitive or tedious things for human beings, for example, they can help people do housework; with the help of robots, more high-tech products can be produced, which will make people’s lives more convenient; what’s more, robots can help people do boring or dangerous work so that people can have time to relax.)

Do you think you will have a robot at home in the future?

Picture 2:

Where are the passengers going? (To the Moon or to Mars.)

Do you believe that one day traveling to the Moon or to Mars would be just like traveling to another city? Why or why not?

If you had a chance, would you like to fly to the Moon or another planet?

Picture 3:

What are the people in this picture doing? (Having a birthday party.)

How old is the man? (200 years old.)

What do you think a 200-year-old man would look like? Do you think the man in the picture looks that old?

Do you think people can live that long in the future? Why or why not? (With the development of genetic research, scientists can find out the secret of living longer. In the future, human beings can live much longer than we live today.)

Picture4:

Can you tell where these “people” are and what they are doing there? (In the office.)

Can you tell who these “people” are and what they are doing there? (Apparently some of the people sitting in the office are not human beings. They are aliens from outer space. The aliens and the human beings are discussing something in the office.

What problems are the aliens and the people probably talking about? (They are probably discussing peace issues in the Galaxy or trade affairs between other planets and the Earth.)

What is the relationship between them? (Workmates.)

Step 2: Sharing information

1. Form your own groups and discuss the three questions listed under the four pictures first.

2. Express your opinions freely and report your responses back to the whole class.

Sample answers

1. Yes. With the development of science and technology, human beings could travel wherever they want in the future. The Moon and other planets could eventually become tourist destinations. Travelling to the Moon or to another planet might be as easy as traveling to another city. You might just have to book a ticket, get packed and think about what present you would like to bring back to your friends on the Earth.

2. In my point of view, robots could do almost everything in the future. With the development of science and technology, they may be designed almost the same as humans. They could help people do boring and dangerous work. For example, it would be possible for robots to be lowered to the ocean floor and left to explore the ocean; robots could play an important role in exploration missions to other planets; they could also be the companions of humans and assist humans physically and psychologically, that is, they could perform more useful functions than just entertainment. All in all, robots could do much more in the future than we can imagine today.

3. New technology seems like magic, it can do a lot of amazing things that we could never imagine before, I’d like to see that a virtual world could be created with the help of technology so that people could live in both a real world and a virtual one. We could not only play games, travel or experience excitement in the virtual world, but also we could do whatever we can do in reality.

4.

3. More questions for you to answer:

Do you think robots will replace human beings in the future?

What things do you think robots can’t do?

Resources

Robots

One high-tech industry that is growing quickly in the 21st century is robots. Nowadays scientists are doing research and trying to build humanoid robots with arms and legs that can move freely. It has been reported that modern robots can even have thoughts and facial expressions. Robots can do a lot of work autonomously for humans. For more information about robots, you may check the following website:

www.frc.ri.cmu.edu/~hpm/project.archive/robot.papers/1999/SciAm.scan.html

●Reading Not just watching a film

Resources

Virtual reality cinema

A virtual reality cinema is one where computer graphics, sound effects, chemically produced odours and electrical sensors are used to create a complete environment, giving people the opportunity to have an enhanced interactive experience by exciting all five of their senses. Sensors that are triggered by movement are used to make the participant feel as if they are moving through this artificial environment. If you need more information, you can visit the following website:

www.crystalinks.com/virtual_reality.html

Step 1: Leading-in

1. The reading material is a business proposal about RealCine, a virtual reality cinema which is supported by extraordinary technology. You are required to learn some information about how this product works, why it is better than ordinary cinema, and how it can be used in many other ways.

Ok, now some questions for you:

Do you like reading novels?

What kind of novel do you like best? What about science fiction novels?

Why do you like them or not?

2. Science fiction is often about the things that may be possible in the far future. It can help us develop our minds and imagination. Let’s watch the extracts from the film Alien.

What kind of feelings do you have after watching it?

Maybe you can strongly feel the rapid development of science and technology after watching the film. We will sense more advanced technology in the film industry.

Step 2: Fast reading for general ideas

1. The article in this section is a business proposal which introduces a new business idea. Skim and scan the proposal and try to find answers to the three questions in Part A. Focus on the most important information needed to answer the questions. Pay attention to the structure of the passage.

Answers

1. A virtually reality cinema called RealCine.

2. All five of our senses.

3. My ninety-year-old grandfather.

2. Read the proposal carefully and complete Part C1. Questions in Part C1 are to check your ability of locating specific information.

Answers

1. The proposal is about a virtual reality cinema: RealCine.

2. The technology behind this product is virtual reality.

3. They wear special VR headsets and gloves.

4. A straw sensor delivers the special food and drink chemicals into the viewer’s mouth.

Step 3: Detailed reading for important information

1. Do Part C2. You can refer to the chart you analyzed before.

C2 1. Paragraphs 3and 4.

2. Paragraphs 2, 5 and 6.

3. Paragraph 7.

2. Answer the following question and fill in the chart according to the proposal.

How can RealCine excite the viewers’ five senses?

Sense Things needed Effect in RealCine

Sight Special VR headsets Viewers can see a world of 3D animation all around them.

Sound Special VR headsets Viewers can hear the sounds clearly all around them.

Smell Small openings in the headset Smells are given out.

Touch Special gloves Viewers can touch people and objects in the film.

Taste A straw sensor Special food and drink chemicals are placed into the viewer’s mouth.

3. Read the following sentences and think about the characteristics of the language used in this article.

I believe you will be amazed by the RealCine experience, and will agree that this is an extraordinary technology that must be developed further.

Viewers will be surprised at how real it feels.

RealCine works by making the viewers feel that they are actually in the film.

I am sure you will agree that RealCine provides a fantastic opportunity for the film-maker industry.

What do you think of the language used in these sentences? Don’t you think that the language used here is quite attractive and persuasive and clear as well?

As a decision maker, do you think you would finally be persuaded to invest or develop RealCine? Why or why not?

The purpose of a business proposal is to plan or suggest a new idea. The goal is to help the customers or the investors make their decisions. Therefore, clear and persuasive language is often used.

4. Read the Reading strategy. See if you will learn something from it. A is often the case, a successful business proposal needs to be objective and that detailed information and convincing facts or examples together with the passive voice are frequently used to achieve this purpose. Therefore, when reading a business proposal, you can focus on these features.

5. Read the article again and underline the sentences using the passive voice in the passage. Give some explanations why the passive voice is used.

6. Complete Part D, referring to the text.

Step 4: Post-reading activities

1. Now I’d like you to hold a group discussion. Imagine what special effect you hope to have if you can see a popular film like “Harry Potter” in RealCine.

Do you think watching a Harry Potter film in RealCine is more exciting and interesting than in an ordinary cinema? Why or why not?

Please make an advertisement poster for this imaginary virtual reality film. Then make an oral presentation of your advertisements in class. You can vote and choose the best one from all the ads. State your reasons for your choice.

Write an introduction to RealCine. In the introduction, you may state your own opinions on RealCine.

Here’s two opinions, what do you think of them? Let’s hold a debate activity in two groups. Please State your reasons freely.

1) Those who support virtual reality believe that, with this technology, people can do almost everything, even things that cannot be realized in normal life. We don’t need to travel any more or spend so much time with friends any more. Virtual reality can provide any necessary features that we need in our life.

2) Others insist that, real life and interpersonal communication should never be replaced by imaginary scenes. People should take off the headsets and experience the real life themselves.

2. Do Parts A1 and A2 on page 96 in your workbook.

3. Read the instructions for Part F and discuss with your partners the questions closely related to new technology. Share your opinions and report your answers to the class.

4. Read Part A first and then do Part B in the writing section of this unit on page 103 in your workbook.

●Word power

Word power deals with different expressions related to computers. By learning rules of word formations, such as adding suffixes to verbs, and adjectives to form abstract nouns, you’ll increase your vocabulary more easily.

Brainstorming

1. Revise the common suffixes that are used to form adjectives learnt in Unit 1.

2. Compare the following two groups of words. You need to decide which part of speech each word is, and think about the similarities and differences between the two groups.

Group1: house, milk, driver; game

Group2: revision, preparation, decision, difference, information,

All the words are nouns, but words in Group1 refer to physical things and those in Group2 refer to ideas, actions, and qualities. The nouns in Group2 are called abstract nouns, and we always use them to say something we cannot see or touch directly.

For reference (www.usingenglish.com/glossary/abstract-noun.html)

A concrete noun refers to objects and substances, including people and animals that exist physically. They can be either an uncountable noun or a countable noun.

eg: Clocks and watches exist physically and are Concrete Nouns. Time is a concept that has no physical existence; it is not a Concrete Noun but an Abstract Noun.

An abstract noun refers to states, events, concepts, feelings, qualities, etc. that have no physical existence.

eg: Freedom; happiness; idea; music are all abstract nouns that have no physical existence.

An abstract noun can be either a countable noun or uncountable noun. Abstract nouns that refer to events are almost usually countable: a noise; a meeting.

For reference (www.arts.uottawa.ca/writcent/hypergrammar/nouns.html)

Concrete Nouns

A concrete noun is a noun which names anything (or anyone) that you can perceive through your physical senses: touch, sight, taste, hearing, or smell. A concrete noun is the opposite of a abstract noun.

Abstract Nouns

An abstract noun is a noun which names anything which you can not perceive through your five physical senses, and is the opposite of a concrete noun. The highlighted words in the following sentences are all abstract nouns:

Vocabulary learning

1. Think about more abstract nouns you know. You may use a dictionary if necessary.

For reference Abstract Nouns

friendship peace civilization romance humor

hate liberty love charity hope

faith bravery comfort talent memory

● Grammar and Usage

The grammar in this unit deals with the passive voice. You are expected to learn the basic verb forms of the passive voice and some special passive patterns

Step 1: Relative knowledge presentation

1. Passive Voice

The passive voice is used when focusing on the person or thing affected by an action.

The Passive is formed: Passive Subject + To Be + Past Participle

It is often used in business and in other areas where the object of the action is more important than those who perform the action. For Example: We have produced over 20 different models in the past two years. Changes to: Over 20 different models have been produced in the past two years.

If the agent (the performer of the action) is important, use “by.” For Example:

Tim Wilson wrote The Flight to Brunnswick in 1987.

The Flight to Brunnswick was written in 1987 by Tim Wilson.

Only verbs that take an object can be used in the passive.

Tense or Model Passive Sentence

Simple Present The TOEFL exam is given every six months.

Simple past The TOEFL exam was given last month.

Simple Future The TOEFL exam this year will be given on October15.

Present Continuous The TOEFL exam is being given every year.

Present perfect The TOEFL exam has been given every year since 1950.

Past perfect The TOEFL exam had been given before the Vietnam War occurred.

Simple Modal The TOEFL exam should be given to every Foreign student.

Past Modal The TOEFL exam should have been given to all to enter US colleges.

The following chart includes sentences changed from the active to the passive in the principal tenses.

Active Passive Time Reference

They make Fords in Cologne. Fords are made in Cologne (科隆). Present Simple

Susan is cooking dinner. Dinner is being cooked by Susan Present Continuous

James Joyce wrote Dubliners. Dubliners was written by James Joyces. Past Simple

They were painting the house when I arrived. The house was being painted when I arrived. Past Continuous

They have produced over 20 models in the past two years. Over 20 models have been produced in the past two years. Present Perfect

They are going to build a new factory in Portland. A new factory is going to be built in Portland. Future Intention with Going to

I will finish it tomorrow. It will be finished tomorrow. Future Simple

2. Passive Verb Formation

The passive forms of a verb are created by combining a form of the “to be verb.” with the past participle of the main verb. Other helping verbs are also sometimes present: “The measure could have been killed in committee.” The passive can be used, also, in various tenses. Let’s take a look at the passive forms of “design.”

Tense Subject Auxiliary Past Participle

Singular Plural

Present The car/cars is are designed.

Present perfect The car/cars has been have been designed.

Past The car/cars was were designed.

Past perfect The car/cars had been had been designed.

Future The car/cars will be will be designed.

Future perfect The car/cars will have been will have been designed.

Present progressive

(Present continuous) The car/cars is being are being designed.

Past progressive

(Past continuous) The car/cars was being were being designed.

3. The passive Voice of phrasal verb

Generally speaking, only transitive verbs can form the passive voice, for only transitive verbs can be followed by objects. But many intransitive verbs together with some prepositions and adverbs can be used as transitive verbs. So they can also be followed by the objects. Therefore they can also be used in passive voice.

But note that all the phrasal verbs are used as a whole. When using them in passive voice, we cannot drop out the prepositions and adverbs. For examples:

At last they put out the fire. At last the fire was put out.

They will put up a notice on the wall. A notice will be put up on the wall.

Have you sent for a doctor? Has the doctor been sent for?

I have never heard of such a thing before. Such a thing has never been heard of before.

We must take good care of the children here. The children must be taken good care of here.

His classmates laughed at him for the foolish mistake. He was laughed at for the foolish mistake by his classmates.

Step 2: Detail explaination

You’ve learned the basic verb forms of the passive voice. Please pay attention to some of the rules when using the passive voice and some special passive patterns.

1. Look at some sentences on the blackboard. Point out the verb, the subject and the object in each of these sentences.

We keep food in the fridge. (The verb in this sentence is keep. The subject is we, and the object is food.)

The boy broke the glass. (The verb in this sentence is broke. The subject is the boy, and the object is the glass.)

You must close the windows and the door. (The verb in this sentence is close, and must is a model verb. The subject is you, and the object is the windows and the door.)

The three sentences can be used in the passive voice. In the three sentences, the subjects are the doers of the actions, and the objects are things that are affected by the actions. Change the three sentences into the passive voice.

Food is kept in the fridge.

The glass was broken by the boy.

The windows and the door must be closed.

Here we use the auxiliary verb be+ the past participle of the verb to form the passive voice. As different tenses are often used, the auxiliary verb be is used in the same tense as the active verb.

2. Read Part 1 on page 48 to find out the difference between the active voice and the passive voice.

3. Read the article Not just watching a film in the Reading section again and point out the sentences in the passive voice. Work out in what tenses these passive sentences are, and how the different tenses are formed.

4. Go over Part 2 and make a list of the passive voice in different tenses.

5. Go over the six points in Part 3 one by one.

Point 1

Usually the doer of the action needn’t be mentioned in the passive sentence, but if it is needed, we use by to introduce the doer of the action. Point out the passive sentences without mentioning the doer in Not just watching a film and say why the doers of the actions are not used in these sentences. For example,

…How it can be used in other ways. (It is difficult to say who the doer is.)

Upon reaching the top of the mountain, a feeling of happiness and a sense of achievement will be experienced. (It is not necessary to mention the doer.)

Point 2

When a verb is followed by two objects, either of the objects can be used as the subject in the passive sentence. However, you should know the difference between using the person and the thing as the subject. Read the two sentences in this point and identify the difference. Change the sentences on the blackboard into the passive voice, using both objects as the subjects. For example,

Our teacher often tells us some interesting stories in English.→

We are often told some interesting stories in English.

Some interesting stories are often told to us in English.

My friends gave me some nice presents on my birthday.→

I was given some nice presents on my birthday by my friends.

Some nice presents were given to me on my birthday by my friends.

My mother will make us a cake this Saturday.→

We will be made a cake by my mother this Saturday.

A cake will be made for us by my mother this Saturday.

In the first sentence of each group, the emphasis is on the person, whereas in the second sentence the focus is on the thing.

Point 3

When an infinitive is used as an object complement after some verbs, such as make, see or hear, in the active voice, the infinitive maker to should be omitted, but if the sentence is changed into the passive voice, to should be used before the infinitive. More examples:

I often hear the girl play the piano in the afternoon.→

The girl is often heard to play the piano in the afternoon.

The teacher makes his students write a composition every week.→

The students are made to write a composition every week.

Point 4

get/become can also be used in the passive voice instead of be. For example,

get broken, get burnt, get dismissed, get hurt, get killed, get lost, get married, get injured, get attacked, get paid

My bike got stolen last night.

You’d better get changed quickly, for the party will begin soon.

This window seems to have got broken.

Point 5

Some verbs used in the active give a passive meaning. For example,

This sweater washes well.

The pen writes smoothly.

This kind of English dictionaries sells well.

Point 6

Some transitive verbs cannot be used in the passive voice, for these verbs indicate states not actions. For example,

I like pop songs and often listen to them.

He has a big house near the river.

You can depend on her to deal with the situation.

6. Go over Part 4 and the tip box here. You will find out that there are two special sentence patterns which can be used in the passive voice. More examples for you:

It is hoped that he will be better soon.

It is reported that another manned satellite will be sent into the moon next month.

It is believed that the three missing sailors have drowned.

It was once thought that the sun traveled around the Earth.

Use the other patterns to say the above sentences.

He is hoped to be better soon.

Another manned satellite is reported to be sent into the moon next month.

The three missing sailors are believed to have drowned.

The sun was once thought to travel around the earth.

7. Read the four pieces of information about the top four exhibits on page 49. Tell which sentences in it can be changed into the passive voice. Underline the sentences and put them into the passive voice.

Complete the report. When doing it, you should pay attention to the different tenses used in the passive voice and complete the report according to the given information.

Answers

(1) are being (2) Electric Wear (3) been developed (4) teenagers

(5) was invented (6) are used (7) been completed (8) will be produced

(9) will be (10) was announced (11) was shown (12) are cleaned

Step 3: Modal verbs and the passive voice

We’ll learn how to use modal verbs in the passive voice to express ability, possibility, duty, permission, etc., and also learn to use modal verbs in the passive voice in the present and the past tenses.

1. Go over Parts 1 and 2 on page 50 and tell how to form the passive voice with modal verbs. Read the example sentences in Part 2.

2. Read the first report in the exercise and you should know what the report is used for. Complete the second report by referring to the information in the first one.

Answers

(1) can be reduced (2) must be taken (3) should be made (4) must be worn

(5) may become (6) ought to be reduced (7) might be cured

3. Do C1 and C2 in your workbook.

Step 4: Verbs often used in the passive voice

Some of the verbs that are often used in the passive voice function as adjectives.

1. Complete some sentences by choosing one of the two words given.

The children are getting ____ about the coming holiday. (exciting; excited)

Don’t you get ____ of arguing about the same thing all the time? (tiring; tired)

Both of them are ___ with the arrangement. (satisfying; satisfied)

The correct answer for the blanks are the words ended in –ed, all of which functioned as adj., expressing one’s feeling about something.

2. Read the instructions of the exercise on page 51 and the timeline. Complete the article with suitable verbs in their proper forms.

Answers

(2) bored with (3) interested in (4) was written by (5) was set up

(6) were employed (7) was surprised at (8) was accused of (9) was questioned by

(10) was closed down

Resources

1. Intransitive verbs cannot be used in the passive voice because they do not have objects. However, some transitive verbs cannot be used in the passive, either. These verbs usually refer to states, not actions, such as have, fit, want, like and lack. For example,

At least he had the good sense to turn the gas off.

That jacket fits you perfectly.

Do you want me to take you to the station?

He just lacks a little confidence.

I like it when a book is so good that you can't put it down.

The box can hold all your clothes.

The trip will cost you $1000.

2. Not all prepositional verbs, that is, verb + a preposition, can be used in the passive voice.

For example,

We all argued about it for hours and eventually arrived at a decision.

All of the people at the meeting agreed with me.

The dog belongs to my cousin.

After getting off his car, he walked into the house.

The Princess was photographed shaking hands with AIDS victims.

She doesn't usually take part in any of the class activities.

3. In some situations, a past participle should be used after be. (When we want to say how we feel about something, we use the past participle; when we want to talk about someone or something that makes us feel something, we use the present participle.) For example,

I’m tired of doing the same thing day after day. The job is really tiring.

I didn’t think the story was frightening, but Helen was frightened by it.

Possible example

Dear sir,

Recently, a survey about the school computer room was carried out in our school. The students find the design of the computer room impractical. They are not interested in studying there because of this. I’m writing this proposal to you to voice our opinion that the computer room needs improving.

There are not enough computers in our computer room. The computers that we use at the moment are old and slow, and they often crash, which wastes a lot of time. The computers there are not connected to the Internet, so we cannot get the information that we need for our homework. There is only one printer in the room, which always goes wrong. In addition, the room is too hot in summer. As more and more subjects involve IT, the computer room is playing a more important role in our studies nowadays. We are encouraged to use computers to do our homework and get information from the Internet. Now many factories and companies cannot work without computers, so those who have computer skills are easier to find a job. In order to get ourselves well prepared for the future, we need a well-equipped computer room. I am sure that most parents would agree with our proposal that our school should improve the computer room.

The government says we should have more IT in all subjects, and more subjects are developing rapidly with the help of IT. Computer skills are becoming more and more important in further studies. We will not keep up with the development of society it we are not good at using computers. So we really need to have a new computer room and hope that you will seriously consider our request.

Best wishes,

●Self-assessment

The self-assessment section aims to let us determine what we have achieved, and what else we can do to improve our study. In Part A, some items are presented to us so that we can check how well we think we have developed these skills. Each item corresponds with one or more parts in this unit. For example, by doing Parts A and B on pages 56 and 57, we will know whether we can use the information we have collected to write a proposal in the formal writing style. We have the opportunity to evaluate our own skills and abilities in English. If we feel very confident about one item, we will give ourselves a score of 5. If we feel only slightly confident about another item, we get a 2. After going over all the items in this part, we need to add all the scores and divide the total amount by the total sum. We will get a percentage, which shows our level.

If we feel there are some items we are not confident of or just slightly confident about, we can think about how to improve on them. In Part B, we will make an action plan, so we will know what to do and take some effective measures. Teachers can also have a better understanding about their students, enabling them to help students study English more effectively.

III. A retold version of the text

RealCine is virtual reality cinema which, unlike ordinary cinema, excites all five of our senses. Viewers will be surprised how real it feels. To make the viewers feel that they are actually in the film, special VR headsets are designed to enable the viewers to see a world of 3D animation and hear the sounds clearly all around them. Special gloves are also worn so that people and objects in the film can be touched. Both the headsets and the gloves are connected to the RealCine computer system.
