Unit 17 My teacher
一、课文理解
【背景介绍】
The text "My Teacher” is adapted from "The Story of My Life ”written by Helen Keller, a famous U.S. writer and educator. She was born on June 27, 1880.She became very ill at the age of nineteen months. Although medical knowledge was not advanced, her 1ife was saved.
However she lost her sight and hearing. She became dumb too. In spite of her parents’ efforts to teach her to speak ,she could not do that even at the age of six.
Then in 1887, a teacher, Miss Sullivan, came to live with her. She had great patience to teach Helen Keller in a curious way. She brought Helen into touch with everything that could be reached or felt. Then she tried to spell words into Helen's palm after touching the objects. In this way, Helen was able to read, write and speak. Their spirit of diligent work encourages all the students to study harder so as to make greater contributions to our country in the near future.

三. 词语探究
【重点词语讲解】
1.gift 的用法
gift 用做名词 , 意为 " 礼物 , 赠品 " 。
He made a gift of $10,000 to his old high school. 他捐赠一万美元给他的高中母校。
gift 还可做 " 天赋 , 天资 " 解。·
He is a boy of many gifts.
他是个多才多艺的少年 He has a gift for painting. 他有绘画天赋。
gifted 是形容词 , 意为 " 有天资的 , 有天赋的 " 。
He is a gifted musician.
他是个有天赋的音乐家。
2．need的用法
need 作及物动词，作“需要”解，后面常跟名词（代词）、不定式、–ing形式。
例如：
They certainly need your help (need + n)
Help should be given to those who need it. (need + pron )
应该帮助需要的人。
I don’t think you need to help him. (need + to do)
Our farm needs helping in autumn.(need + -ing 形式)
注意，helping ,虽是-ing 形式，但是含有被动的意思。此句还可以用不定式的被动式来表示，即：Our farm needs to be helped in autumn.
(2)need 可作情态动词，后跟动词原形，作“需要”、“有必要”解，通常用于否定句中。
例如：
You needn’t be so polite to her .你没有必要对她如此客气。
We needn’t hurry .It’s still early.我们不要着急，时间还早呢。
作情态动词时，也常用于疑问句。例如：
—Need he do it all at once ?他必须立即动手做吗？
—No, he needn’t .不必了。（肯定答语应为Yes, he must ）
(3)need 作名词，构成in need of 词组，作“需要……”解。如课文中出现的。
Her face is pale .She looks as though she is in need of a rest.
她脸色苍白，看上去需要休息。
A friend in need is a friend indeed .患难见真情。
3．yet 的用法
（1）一般与already相对，用于否定句和疑问句中。
Has your father arrived yet?
We haven’t heard from him yet.
(2)yet 可用于肯定句，意为“还、仍、更”，相当于still
I have yet more surprising news for you.
我还有更令人吃惊的消息要告诉你。
(3)yet 与最高级连用，意为“（到目前）为止最”。
This is the biggest underground lake yet discovered.
这是迄今发现的最大的地下湖。
（4）yet可作为连词用，意为“而，然而”。
This story is simple yet interesting.
【重点词语辨析】
1. as well as 和 not only ...but also ...
在 A as well as B 的结构中 , 强调的重点在 A, 而不是 B, 应译作 " 不仅是 B 而且是A", 相当于 "not only B but also A".
The child is lively as well as healthy.
(=The child is not only healthy but also lively.)
这孩子既健康又活泼。
He gave me clothes as well as food.
(=He gave me not only food but also clothes.) 他不仅给我吃的 , 而且还给我穿的。
2. cause 与reason的区别
cause和 reason都表示原因。cause是自然造成某种结果的原因，起因。reason指在事
实的基础上通过逻辑判断推出来的理由。常与for连用。如：
The cause of the fire is carelessness.
The reason for which he was late is not clear.
cause还可作动词，意为“导致，引起”。例如：
What caused him to change his mind?
Do you think this will cause a lot of trouble?
四. 口语交际
Asking for permission and responses
常用句型:
主动提出约会时常说：

回答时常说：
Fine.
I’ll see you then.
Yes, I’ll be free then.
Yes, what about three o’clock? I have something to do at two.
口语示范:
Dialogue
---- See you again tomorrow, OK?
----OK.
---- I’d like to talk to you, when will you be free this month?
---- Let me see, I’ll be free next Saturday.
----I’d like to make an appointment to see Dr. Smith.
----Well, I can arrange for you to see him two weeks from now.
五. 探究性学习
【高考语法训练】
【数词】
要点归纳 数词是表示计算的数目、事物的数量或事物的顺序的词类。
基数词及其表达方法 （所有其他基数词都可以由这些词构成）
(1) 1~12独立成词（它们也叫基本基数词）；
13~19是以相对应的3~9加后缀-teen构成（特殊拼写：thirteen, fifteen, eighteen）；20~90整十位数的基数词是由相对应的2~9加后缀-ty构成（特殊拼写：twenty, thirty, forty, fifty, eighty）；
（2）21~99的两位数先说“十位”，再说“个位”，中间加连字符“-”。如：
twenty-two, ninety-nine.
（3）101~999的三位数字：第一位数字+hundred +and +后面的一位或两位数字。
（4）1000以上的大数，要使用计数逗号“，”，即从个位数向前，每三位加一逗号，第一个逗号前是thousand，第二个逗号前是million，“万”用ten thousand表示，“十万”则用hundred thousand来表示。
（5）hundred, thousand, million表示具体数目时不用复数形式，其前可用two, three等例如：
hundreds of people好几百人 thousands of sheep数千只羊
（6）由基数词和名词加连字符号构成的复合词作前置定语时，其中名词用单数。
（7）此外还有一些表示数量意义的词
如： dozen（一打）、score（二十）。
习惯上dozen后若有代词，表示有所指的范围时dozen后要加of，而score此要求。如：two dozen of these chairs 这些椅子当中的两打
(8) 数词也可用来表示时间概念。表示年代可用“in the + 基数词”的复数形式。
（9）表示年龄可用“in one’s + 基数词复数”来表示。
另外, 中文的表达习惯差异也是学生学习数词时产生误区的因素.
▲典型例剖析
1.They have ________ sheep and cows to take care of.
A. a great deal of B. a lot C. a great many D. good deal
[误点] A 误认为sheep是不可数名词．
[解析] sheep 是可数名词，其单数形式与复数形式相同．正确答案为 C. 0
[捷径] a great deal of修饰不可数名词．修饰不可数的名词还有 much, amount
of; 修饰可数名词的有 a number of, many, a great many; 既可修饰可数名词，又可修饰不可数名词的有： a lot of, lots of, plenty of, a quantity of, some, enough等．英语的名词有可数和不可数之分，可数名词可以用数来表示一个、两个等。如果强调的不是一个、两个，而是总量，可用量来表达。不可数名词只能用量来表达。英语中的量可由封闭性量词来表示。如：many, much, (a) little, (a)few, several等不定代词也可用作限定词，具有计量作用， 表示事物的全部或局部，这一类词在英语中数目有限，比较稳定。
２．He told me two ________ students attended the meeting.
A. score B. scores C. scores of D. score and
[误点] B, C 中英文数词表达的不同方式.
[解析] score意为 “二十”, 与数词连用时其后不加s.正确答案为: A.
[捷径] 1) score与hundred, thousand, million 在表示上是一样, scores of 表示
好多的概念. Score表示确切数字时可以用上介词of来连用.
例如:
three score of people “六十人”.
2) 除此之外,还有dozen(一打)一词与上者用法一样. 所不同的是: dozen可以与some连用, 例如:some dozen people “一打左右的人”.而some dozen of people = some dozens of people译为 “若干打的人”. dozen与a, 数词及many, several连用时只用其单数形式.
例如:
a dozen people 而不与of连用.

Our eating habits are very important for good health and a strong body. There are times when most of us would rather eat sweets and ice cream than meat and rice. Sweets and ice cream are not bad for the stomach if we eat them at the end of a meal. If we eat them before a meal, they may take away our appetite(食欲). It is important for us to eat our meals at the same time each day. When we feel hungry, it is said that our body needs food. When we feel angry or excited, we may not want to eat. A long time ago, in England, some judges used to decide whether a man was telling truth by giving him some dry bread. If the man could not swallow it, it was a sign that he was not telling the truth. He was telling lies. Although it seems very strange and foolish, it is indeed and excellent way of finding the truth. A man who is worrying about something has difficulty in swallowing anything dry. Because he is worrying, he loses his appetite and does not want to eat.

A. after the meal B. before the meal
C. when our work is over D. when we want to

Jim was a greedy(贪心的)boy. He enjoyed having good food. One day when he came to have breakfast, he found there was only bread and gruel(麦片粥). So he didn’t want to have them. Then he thought out a plan to get something good to eat. He put his hands on his stomach (肚子) and said, “ I’ve got a stomachache(肚子痛), Mum. And I don’t want any breakfast now.” His mother said, “ I’m sorry to hear that. Go to Doctor Jones and he’ll give you some medicine. You know his house.” Then she gave Jim some money and let him go by bus. Jim got off the bus after five minutes’ ride. He didn’t go to see Dr. Jones. He went into a shop and bought some pieces of cake.
Jim was eating the cake on his way back home. When he got home, his mother asked him, “ What did Dr. Jones say, my boy?” Jim answered, “ He said good food is better than any medicine for my stomachache.

Hock and Karl were very good friends. Hock could not see. He was blind. Karl could not walk. He was lame. They lived in a village near a forest. Everyone in the village was going to a rich man’s dinner on the other side of the forest. Hock and Karl were anxious to attend the dinner too.
Blind Hock thought of a plan. He would carry Karl. The lame man could tell him the way. Karl said that the plan was a good one.
On the way through the forest, Karl saw a tiger. He did not tell Hock about it. Instead, he quietly asked Hock to carry him to the nearest tree. Upon reaching an overhanging branch, Karl came to stop and started climbing onto the tree.

3 Story telling
1. This is Ann Sullivan. She was born in 1866 and became an orphan when she was young. She spent her childhood in a children’s home. Then she went to an institution for the blind. There she learnt Braille and studied the teaching of deaf-blind children.
2. This is Ann Sullivan and this is the head of the institution for the blind. He is handing over a letter to Ann. The letter came from Helen Keller’s parents. They wanted to invite a teacher for Helen. Ann was glad to accept the invitation.
3. Ann is laughing happily. Helen is touching Ann’s face in order to feel the movement of her laughing. This is how Ann leaned words. When Helen knew the meaning of the word Ann was going to spell it. She spelled the word into the girl’s hand with her fingers.
4. Now Helen is touching Ann’s throat and lips while Ann is speaking. This is how the deaf-blind child learned to speak. She tried to copy Ann’s movements of lips and throat so as to form speech.
5. Look! Helen is saying “Mother”. That makes her parents and teacher very happy.
6. Helen is now at school. Ann is helping her. In fact, Ann sat beside Helen in every class during her school years. She spelled out for her the things that the teachers taught, because most books were not printed in Braille at that time.

V．One possible version:
I, together with my father, went to the countryside to see Grammy in the summer holidays this year. I had not been to my hometown for many years. Great changes had taken place when we got there. But unfortunately we met a fierce flood there. We fought a battle against the flood with the villagers. I learned a lot during the period of my stay there and I decided to go back to my hometown every other year.
