一、教法建議
1. 目的與要求
這是一篇說明文。通過教學(xué)的每個(gè)環(huán)節(jié)實(shí)現(xiàn)以下三個(gè)目的：
（1）了解有關(guān)the USA , New York的一般情況，如：人口，歷史，政府以及the bison等
（2）幫助學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)掌握本單元的重點(diǎn)詞匯和短語；
（3）在幫助學(xué)生提高閱讀能力的同時(shí)，幫助指導(dǎo)學(xué)生如何運(yùn)用英語介紹某一地區(qū)（城市或國家）的能力并能縮寫課文（100-150 words ）.
本單元的能力目標(biāo)：

2. 本單元重點(diǎn)知識：
(1)單詞和詞組：tear v. turn v. rot vi. shoot n.

② turn v. or link v.

這類詞和詞組很多，要學(xué)會(huì)讀懂上下文的內(nèi)容，準(zhǔn)確理解，找到一個(gè)詞組的本義，轉(zhuǎn)義和喻義，這對擴(kuò)大詞匯量和提高閱讀能力很有好處。

3. 本單元應(yīng)掌握的難點(diǎn)知識：
（1）常見的主語形式：
一般說來，英語句子中的主語形式常見的有以下八種：
A bison is a large animal found on the American plains .（名詞）
This is the room Mr Lu Sun once lived in .（代詞）
She is a quick girl .（人稱代詞）
The old are taken good care for in their own family . （形容詞）
Two times five is ten .（數(shù)詞）
Fishing is interesting . （動(dòng)名詞）
To save money now is impossible to us students .（不定式短語）
What surprised me most was that it seemed to be a few days before a new house was set up . （主語從句）
以上有關(guān)主語八種形式需要在閱讀和練習(xí)中熟記并掌握。
（2）主語和謂語的一致性問題
主語和謂語的一致性問題是大多數(shù)學(xué)生學(xué)習(xí)英語時(shí)遇到的最大的困難之一。一個(gè)句子中的謂語動(dòng)詞必須與這個(gè)句子中的主語人稱，數(shù)的形式保持一致關(guān)系。例如，句子中的主語是單數(shù)形式，其謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式。這種主謂一致的劃分歸納起來有以下八種。
① 由and連接的名詞作主語時(shí)
a. 如果由and連接的兩個(gè)名詞（不同概念）作主語時(shí)，謂語動(dòng)詞要用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如：
Tom and Jack live in Room 305.
Both you and I are to be sent to Tibet.
What he said and what he did agreed with each other.
b. 當(dāng)and連接的兩個(gè)名詞指同一個(gè)人、同一件事或一概念，這時(shí)and后面的名詞前沒有冠詞，其謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式（這里and相當(dāng)于as well as ）。如：
The singer and composer is coming to our school .
那位歌唱家兼作曲家將來我們學(xué)校。
Bread and butter is often served for breakfast in our dining hall .
（比較：The boy and the girl were given a book each .每個(gè)同學(xué)都分得一本書。其中 “each”是同位語，句中主語為復(fù)數(shù)。）
我們食堂早點(diǎn)經(jīng)常供應(yīng)奶油面包。
常見的由and連接的兩個(gè)名詞指由一個(gè)概念的形式有：the needle and thread針線，salt and water鹽水，the or and knife刀叉，soap and water肥皂水，iron and steel鋼鐵等。
C. 由and連接的兩個(gè)并列主語為單數(shù)概念。主語前面分別由each , every ,no等詞來修飾時(shí)，其謂語動(dòng)詞為單數(shù)形式。
Each doctor and each nurse was sent for .
把所有的醫(yī)生和護(hù)士都清來了。
Every boy and every girl is able to go to school in that village .
在那個(gè)村子里所有的孩子們都能上學(xué)。
注意：more than one和many a 修飾的單數(shù)名詞后面的謂語用單數(shù)形式，但其意義是復(fù)數(shù)。
如：
More than one student is fond of folk- music .
許多學(xué)生喜歡民間音樂。
Many a boy enjoys playing foot-ball .
許多男同學(xué)喜歡踢足球。
② 當(dāng)主語后面接說明主語的修飾詞或插入語時(shí)，謂語動(dòng)詞的數(shù)不受修飾成份的影響，仍同主語的關(guān)系一致。
這些修飾成分常見的有：with, along with , togeth whit (和…一起)；as well as (還) ；like (像)；no less than (不亞于)；rather than (而不是)；more than（多于)；as much as (如…一般多)；but ,except（除了……）；besides (除了……還……)；including包括；in addition to（另外）等引導(dǎo)的一個(gè)修飾結(jié)構(gòu)，放在主語后面。如：
The old man , along with his two grandsons, often have a walk in the evening .
Jenny , as well as her friends , is going abroad .
The house ,including the garden and the garage ,was sold out .
③ 當(dāng)集合名詞作主語時(shí)
根據(jù)句子內(nèi)容，謂語動(dòng)詞可以是單數(shù)也可以是復(fù)數(shù)形式。在這一用法中，要注意正確判斷主語是“整體”概念，還是“個(gè)體”概念。
如：# The whole nation regard Premier Zhou Enlai as one of the greatest leaders .
(句中 “nation” 表示“全國人民”謂語用復(fù)數(shù))。
注: 集合名詞作主語時(shí)，謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)還是復(fù)數(shù)，取決于它強(qiáng)調(diào)的內(nèi)容，如果一個(gè)名詞作為一個(gè)整體看待，謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式，表示“全體一致的行動(dòng)”或者“群體關(guān)系”；當(dāng)謂語動(dòng)詞表示“身份”、“情感”或強(qiáng)調(diào)“每個(gè)成員”時(shí)，用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如：
The audience was in good order .
觀眾保持良好的秩序。（指整體狀態(tài)）
The audience were greatly encouraged .
觀眾們深受鼓舞。（指具體的人）
常用的集合名詞有：group ,class ,team ,family ,nation ,army ,crowd ,audience ,public, government , majority（大多數(shù)）等。
有些集合名詞如people、cattle（牛群）等在任何情況下都與謂語動(dòng)詞的復(fù)數(shù)形式搭配。
④ 就近原則
以連詞or either…or neither…nor not only…but also…連接的名詞或代詞作主語時(shí)，謂語動(dòng)詞與其相鄰的那個(gè)名詞的數(shù)一致。
如： # Among the boys ,one or two are able to jump 1.6 metres .
在這些同學(xué)中，一二個(gè)人能跳過1.6米。
⑤ 以 “某些不定代詞或表示數(shù)量的詞 + of + 名詞”的結(jié)構(gòu)，謂語形式要與of 后的名詞保持一致。
常見的這類詞有：all , some , a lot , plenty , any , part ,the rest ,one-third percent + of
如： 70 percent of the surface is covered with water .
70 percent of the farmers have impoved their living conditions .
⑥ 有些不定代詞或表示數(shù)字的名詞修飾的名詞或詞組作主語時(shí)，句中謂語動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)。這類詞組常用的有：few (of ) , a few , both , both of ,a number of + 復(fù)數(shù)名詞+謂語動(dòng)詞（復(fù)數(shù)）
如： # Few of the students were in the classroom yesterday , for it was Sunday .
昨天教室里沒有幾個(gè)人，因?yàn)槭切瞧谌铡?/p>
[注]：在 “ a number of + 名詞（復(fù)數(shù)）” 結(jié)構(gòu)中，“復(fù)數(shù)名詞”是中心詞，“a number of ”作定語，謂語用復(fù)數(shù)形式；而在 “ the number of + 名詞（復(fù)數(shù)）” 結(jié)構(gòu)中， “the number “是“中心詞”，謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式。如：
A number of questions were always asked when the manager got to his office .
The number of the students in this school is 1,560.
[注] 當(dāng) “the number”.表示“…數(shù)量或號碼”時(shí)，謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。如：
The number of the key is 207.
⑦ “the + 形容詞（分詞或數(shù)詞）” 結(jié)構(gòu)起名詞作用時(shí)
如果這個(gè)結(jié)構(gòu)表示的是一類人，謂語動(dòng)詞用復(fù)數(shù)形式；如果這個(gè)結(jié)構(gòu)表示抽象概念（或具體的某一個(gè)人），謂語用單數(shù)形式。如：
The young are able to create their own future.
There was an old lady and a young girl in the park . The young was the daughter of the old .
The wounded were taken to hospital without delay .
⑧ 表示重量、距離、金錢，一段時(shí)間及由one and a half修飾的復(fù)數(shù)名詞作主語時(shí)，謂語動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)形式。如：
Twenty dollars isn’t enough to buy the book .
Ten miles isn’t far .
Five times six is thirty.
One and a half apples was left on the plate .
二、學(xué)海導(dǎo)航
如何培養(yǎng)和提高作答單項(xiàng)填空題的能力。
單項(xiàng)填空題主要考查中學(xué)階段所學(xué)詞法和句法中常見的語言內(nèi)容，試題具有信息量大，綜合性強(qiáng)，突出語言的交際能力等特點(diǎn)。回答單項(xiàng)填空題，不能單純從語法規(guī)則入手，而是要求考生必須從題干提供的語言環(huán)境出發(fā)，綜合所學(xué)的語言語法知識正確判斷。建議參考以下三個(gè)步驟：
1.認(rèn)真閱讀提綱，了解大意；
2.根據(jù)句中所缺部分和四個(gè)選項(xiàng)的概念和形式，判斷考查什么；
3.從提綱的內(nèi)容和選項(xiàng)的形式兩個(gè)方面進(jìn)行匹配，達(dá)到內(nèi)容和形式的統(tǒng)一。如：
________want to work in Xinjiang after graduation.
A. Not only Ann but also her friends B. Neither Ann nor Tom
C. Either Ann or her friend D. Nobody but Ann
答案：A
解析：此題句子大意是“……想畢業(yè)后去新疆工作”根據(jù)句中所缺部分和四個(gè)選項(xiàng)不難看出此題考查的是主謂一致問題。句中“want”是一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)復(fù)數(shù)形式，那么，此句的主語應(yīng)是復(fù)數(shù)形式；四個(gè)選項(xiàng)是D是單數(shù)，故與本題要求不符；A，B，C三項(xiàng)都是由連詞連接的兩個(gè)名詞作主語。根據(jù)“就近原則”（見主謂一致問題4）答案為A。
另外，進(jìn)行自我訓(xùn)練時(shí)，要注意按高考要求的時(shí)間（12分鐘）完成25個(gè)單選題。并查出造成失誤的原因。如：知識不準(zhǔn)確；偏重語法而忽視內(nèi)容；或受母語的干擾等原因造成的失誤。發(fā)現(xiàn)問題，抓住重點(diǎn)，集中一段時(shí)間重點(diǎn)突破。
