教学建议（Suggested teaching notes）
一、教学内容分析
第24单元是本学期的最后一个单元，是一个复习单元。教学本单元可考虑以下几个侧重点：
（一）复习第二十三单元中的both…and…，either…or…和neither…nor…句型。
（二）复习but，though的用法。
（三）复习第二十一、二十二单元中有关看病和购物的表达法。
（四）复习写信的格式。
（五）复习第二十单元中的数字表达法，特别是较大数字的读法。
（六）复习过去将来时，过去完成时和现在完成时。
二、教学方法建议
（一）第二十一和二十二单元是有关看病和购物的内容，其中有许多较为实用的语句，应指导学生多练习，以期达到纯熟程度。以下提供一些情景对话，可用来帮助学生操练。
对话1
A: Good morning, Jack. What's the matter with you?
B: I'm feeling ill. I have a cough and a headache, and this place hurts.
A: Let me take your temperature. You have a fever, too. You have caught a bit of a cold.Did you eat anything this morning?
B: Not very much. I don't want to eat anything.
A: I must listen to your chest.
B: IS it serious?
A: It's only a cold. Stay in bed, and keep yourself warm. Take this medicine twice a day.You will soon get better.
对话2
A: Good morning. Jack. Are you feeling better today?
B: Yes, much better than yesterday.
A: You see, I've told you it's nothing serious. Here're the pills for today. Don't forget to take them.B: Sure. I will.
对话3
A: What can I do for you，sir?
B: Will you let me see this pair of shoes?
A: Yes, of course. What Size do you want?
B: Let me see. Size eight.
A: Sorry, we haven't got size eight at the moment. Will size seven do?B: Can I try them on, please?
A: Certainly. Here you are.
B: It's a bit small. I'll come some other day.
A: Can I have your telephone number? I'll let you know as soon as we have size eight.B: That'll be very kind of you. Thank you very much. My number is 4667-1352.A: I got it.
B: Bye-bye. Have a nice day.
A: You too. Bye.
对话4
A: I like this TV set. How much does it cost?
B: 13,450 yuan.
A: That's too expensive. Have you got a cheaper one?
B: How about this one? It's 9,650 yuan. Only a little smaller than that one.A: That's not very expensive. But I'll think about it.
（二）复习写信格式。本单元的课文是一封信。一封正规的信应主要包括四个部分：1．右上角是写信人的地址和写信日期（Heading）。地址应从小写到大，这与中文不同，中文是先写国名，省名，市名，再写区名，楼号和门号；英语则相反，从门号写起，直到国名。地址下面要写上日期。
2．对收信人的称呼（Salutation）。一般的称呼前都要用Dear，如果是上司或长辈，较为郑重的情况，应在Dear之后加上Mr，Mrs，Ms，Miss，然后再用对方的姓氏；如果是较为平等或亲近的关系，则可以在Dear后面直呼其名。
3．内容（Body）。这是信件的主体，与中文写信一样，应明白通顺，对亲近的人可选用轻松、诙谐、随便一些的口吻，对陌生或较远的人可选用郑重的口吻。
4．签名（Signature）。签名前应写上Yours，Sincerely yours一类的字样。第96课是一篇格式很标准的书信，可考虑让学生阅读之后，模仿Linda的口气给LiuZhong写一封回信，表示交笔友的愿望。练习册第96课练习3是填写信封的练习，可让学生做出来，给他们一个较为完整的写信格式训练。
（三）复习数字表达法
1．让学生读出下列数字。
A．374 E．6,557 I．18,576 M．897,473
B．879 F．5,890 J．49,359 N．256,400,000
C．6,050 G．10,000 K．190,876 O．4,378,578,239
D．4,578 H．12,786 L．1,057,000 P．6,675,420,000
2．教师读下列数字，让学生听写出来。
A．582 E．46,051 I．1,775,000
B．300 F．59,448 J．5,276,853
C．4,700 G．360,502 K．4,672,873
D．27,000 H．352,727 L．583,421,387
（四）复习过去将来时，过去完成时和现在完成时
1．过去将来时和过去完成时，前者表示从过去某时看来将要发生的动作，后者表示在过去某时前已经发生的动作和情况。它们都是相对的时态，立足于过去某时，从过去某时看未来或看过去。复习时，教师有必要重申这两个时态的概念，并且需要简要概括这两个时态的肯定式，否定式，一般疑问式，特殊疑问式及答语的结构。用类似下列的句子进行对比。
He was fourteen years old. In two years he would be sixteen.
By the time he was fourteen, he had already built a science lab himself.
He told me he would fly to England for his holiday.
He told me he had filled his bags with clothes and other things.
Mr Green telephoned me to say that he would arrive in Beijing at 6: 40 pm.
I told him that I had already cooked a good meal for him.
He said he would take that nice jacket, but he would first draw some money from the bank.
He remembered he had chosen a new jacket, but he hadn't paid for it.
2．复习现在完成时。
本书对现在完成时的讲解分别在第六、八、九、二十二单元中进行。其中分别讲述了现在完成时的概念、结构与一般过去时的区别及常用状语短语等内容。复习时应抓住两个要点：1）现在完成时与过去时的区别，2）正确使用延续动词和非延续动词。此外，还应带领学生复习不规则动词表，必要时要默写数次，这是学习、运用现在完成时的很关键的部分。
（五）教学课文
本单元的课文是一封信，写了Bob White在Ayers Rock的度假经历和爬山的过程。教学中可考虑先用练习册第94课练习1来检查一下学生对课文的理解程度。学完全文后，可假设Wei Hua和 Bob互通电话，指导学生编一个对话。B：Hi, Wei Hua. This is Bob speaking.
W：Oh, Bob, It's you! How are you going? I wrote you a letter about half a month ago. Have you received it?
B：Yes, It arrived three days ago. Thank you for the letter. I'm calling to tell you that we have just returned from a short holiday at Ayers Rock.
W：Did you? Wonderful! But where's Ayers Rock?
B：It's right in the centre of Australia. It's nearly two thousand kilometres from Sydney.
W：How did you go there?
B：We flew there most of the way.
W：Did you have a good trip?
B：At first, it was cloudy. But after we left the mountains behind us, there was hardly a cloud in the sky.
W：Is Ayers Rock a large mountain?
B：It is large but not high. The day after we arrived, we got up early in the morning before the sun rose. We started climbing up before it was light.
W：Did you reach the top?
B：No. We didn't because it was too hot.
W：What's at the foot of Ayers Rock?
B：Most of the ground is covered with forest and grass, and there are even a few small rivers. But when you climb higher, you will find nothing grows there at all.
W：Is it beautiful there?
B：Yes, very beautiful. In the evening, when the sun goes down, the sand is almost red. The sky is red, too. We had a great time.
W：I wish I were there.
B：You will some day. Let's go together.

教学步骤（Teaching steps）
Lesson 93
Step 1 Revision
1 Revise the vocabulary learnt in the last unit.
2 Get some pairs of Ss to act out their dialogues about going to see a doctor.
Step 2 Presentation
Tell the Ss In my free time, I like reading books. What about you? What do you like doing in your free time? Collect different answers from individual Ss. Revise these answers by asking the whole class What does Student A/B etc like doing in his/her free time?Write the answers on the Bb. Point out the use of like+ -ing.
Say I like reading books. Does anyone also like reading books? (Student C raises his/her hand.) Yes, Student C and I both like reading books. Ask aboutother interests in the same way. Get the Ss to say: A and B both like reading books. Write an example onthe Bb and revise the meaning of both( for two people).
Now ask Who doesn't like reading books/ listening to music/watching TV/ playing football, etc?
Point out two Ss who raise their hands and say: Neither C nor D likes…. Practise in the same way and write a model on the Bb. Revise the meaning of neither… nor. Teach Neither of them likes….
Step 3 Read and say
SB page 93, Part 1. Tell the Ss to read the dialogue silently. Then ask Who has a pen friend? (A) What does a pen friend do? (Writes letters）How often does A write? (About once a month) Why? (Neither of them has much time.) Make sure the Ss use neither + has. Speech Cassette Lesson 93.Play the tape for the Ss to listen and repeat. Let the Ss practise the dialogue in pairs. See if any pair can act it out without the books!
Step 4 Study
SB page 93, Part 2. For(1), point out that both can come before the nouns/ pronouns (Both John and Ann ….) or after the nouns/ pronouns( We both have….)Get the Ss to make up some new sentences about their classmates using both( e.g. Both A and B are wearing green trousers.)
In(2), a but clause expresses an opposite or unequivalent situation( explain in Chinese if necessary). Give an example about the class: C iswearing a blue jacket, but D isn't.
Get the Ss to make up some examples.
Step 5 Practice
SB page 93, Part 3. Speech Cassette Lesson 93. Play the tape for the Ss to listen and repeat. Make sure they understand the meaning of the sentences.( Ask Ss to translate them into Chinese if you wish.) See if the Ss can make up more sentences.
Step 6 Practice
SB page 93, Part 4. Tell the Ss that another way of expressing the same idea is to use Though + the first clause. Though makes the listener expect an opposite or unequivalent situation. Give some examples:
Though I like watching films, I don't go to the cinema very often.
Though Li Lei studies hard, he doesn't get very good result.
Read the example in Part 4. Point out that, unlike Chinese, we don't use both though and but together in the same sentence.
Help the Ss to go through the other sentences in Part 3 orally, using Though…. Then ask them to write down all five sentences in their exercise books.
Step 7 Workbook
Wb Lesson 93, Exx.1 and 2. Do one or two examples for each part before the Ss write down their answers.Check the answers with the whole class. The answers to Ex. 2 are: 1 but, 2 Though, 3 but, 4 but, 5 Though, 6 Though, 7 but, 8 but.
For Ex. 3, the Ss ask and answer in pairs. Ask them to give true answers.
Step 8 Consolidation
Revise both, neither… nor/neither of ,but and though by getting the Ss to make up sentences about their classmates. See if they can also make up sentences about different countries, e. g. Both China and the USA are big countries.
Homework
Finish off the Workbook exercises.
Do Ex. 1 in the exercise book.
参考教案 Unit 24 Mainly revision 教学步骤 Lesson 94 示例二
Lesson 94
Step 1 Revision
1 Check the homework.
2 Revise both, neither… nor/ neither of them/ but/though by drawing a map of China on the Bb. Mark different places on it: Shanghai, Beijing, Xi'an, Chongqing, etc. Give the Ss some sentences about two places: e. g. Both Shanghai and Beijing are big cities. Neither Xi'an nor Chongqing is near the sea. Xi'an is in Shaanxi, but Chongqing is in Sichuan. Though Beijing is cold in winter, it is hot in summer.See if the Ss can make up more examples.
Step 2 Preparation for reading
Tell the Ss Today we are going to read about Australia. What do you know about Australia? What cities do you know? (Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide, Canberra, etc) Which city is her capital?(Canberra) What's the population of Australia? What animals can you see there? (Sheep, kangaroos, koala bears, etc.) Accept answers in Chinese. If you like, you can ask your Ss to find out the English names for these animals.
Revise geographical words, such as mountain, forest, river by drawing simple pictures. Teach sky and desert (land covered in sand) in the same way.
SB page 94. Say Read the letter and find the answer to this question: How many sheep are there in
Australia? Let the Ss read the letter quickly to find the answer( about 700 million).
Wb Lesson 94, Ex. 1. Read through the questions an make sure the Ss understand them. Note the
Pronunciation of Ayers [#+z].
Step 3 Reading
Let the Ss read the letter again, this time more carefu11y. Then they discuss their answers orally in pairs. Check the answers with the whole class.
This is the time to go through the letter and discuss difficult grammatical and lexical points.
Notes:
1) Refer the Ss to the date April 14th, 19____.Tell the Ss to write in the current year in place of the ____ (e. g. 1995).
2) Lower down: Note the use of down to reinforce the comparative form of low.
3) All around it is sand =Sand is all around it.(Inversion)
4) seventeen million, and they say…, so…here and introduces an extra point about the population( i. e. the population of sheep!)
The language is informal. In more formal
English we might write:… seventeen million; they say…person, so…
5) I must stop writing = Time to finish.
Note the other stop structures:
I must stop (doing sth else in order) to write a letter.
I must stop you from writing a letter.
(Don't write a letter!)
Step 4 Reading aloud
Sb page 94. Speech Cassette Lesson 94. Divide the class into rows. Play the tape, then pause it after each sentence. Say (e. g.) Row 4. Row 4 will repeat the sentence. Play the tape again and pause it after the next sentence. Call out a different number (Row 2) to repeat the sentence.
Step 5 Workbook
Wb Ex. 2. Let the Ss work alone before you check the answers with the whole class. The answers are: 1B, 2 C,3C, 4C, 5 B, 6 B.
For Ex. 3, do it orally in class before the Ss fill in the blanks. Then read the whole passage again. The answers are: large, high, centre/ middle, kilometres, from, a, holiday, flew, over, looked,/ look, sand, sheep, hardly; before, rose, hot, At, forest, grass, higher, grew/ growing, reach, hot, went, down, sand, sky, beautiful.
Step 6 Consolidation
Discuss the letter. Start by pointing out the layout of a friendly letter: note the position of the writer's address, the date, Dear…, Yours, and the signature.Say Tell me about Ayers Rock/ Australia. Ask other questions, using Wb Ex. 1 as a guide.
Ask Would you like to go to Australia? Why? Which countries would you like to visit? Why? etc.
Homework
Finish off the Workbook exercises.
Read the letter again, and try to tell the main content of the letter.
Get the Ss to write the answers to Ex. 1 in their exercise books, using complete sentences for practice.

2 Revise the letter in SB page 94. Ask What did you learn about Australia? What is Ayers Rock?
Revise vocabulary items such as desert, sky, mountain, river etc, by drawing pictures on the Bb.
3 Get several Ss to retell the story in the letter.Each of them may say a few words.
Step 2 Presentation
SB page 95, Part 1. Tell the Ss Look at the pictures of Ayers Rock and listen to me. There are hardly any people in this picture.
Repeat, using a different noun( trees, sheep, etc.) Ask What does“hardly any” mean? Yes, it means almost none.
Write a model sentence on the Bb:
