25、st question?S:1.When the writer was surfing the Internet,a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies by following some simple rules for keeping babies clean and healthy.T:How did you know that it drew his attention?S:He said the book caught his eye.T:So here “
26、something catch ones eye” means.?Ss:It means “draw ones attention某物吸引某人的注意,某人看到了某物”.T:Good.(writes “ sth.catch one eye= sth.catch ones attention/sb.see sth.” on the blackboard)What about a book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies by following some simple rules for
27、keeping babies clean and healthy?What does it mean?S:In Chinese,it means 一本介绍如何在妇女怀孕到护理婴儿的过程中通过一些使婴儿保持清洁健康的简单规则来降低死亡率的书。“explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies by following some simple rules for keeping babies clean and healthy” is the attribute.T:Good.( writes “v.-in
28、g as attribute” on the blackboard and gives more examples with ing as the attribute) Lets see the second question.S:2.Yes,it was difficult for Lin Qiaozhi to get a medical training.T:Yes or no?Ss:Yes.T:How did you know?Ss:The first sentence in the third paragraph.T:Can you understand the sentence?Ss
29、:Yes/ No.T:Who can explain the sentence?S:Let me try.This is a complex sentence.The first “it” is an empty subject and the real subject is how difficult it must have been for a woman to get a medical training so long ago when womens education was always placed second to mens. The second “is” also an
30、 empty subject.It stands for “to get a medical training for a woman so long ago when womens education was always placed second to mens”.“when womens education was always placed second to mens” is a relative clause to modify “long ago”.In Chinese,the whole sentence means “在那久远的年代,当女性的教育总是低于男性的时候,一个女子
31、去学医一定是相当困难的,这想法闪电般地闪过我的脑海。”T:Good.(writes and explains “modal verb + have been” and “place A second to B” on the blackboard,giving more examples) Lets see the third question.What had got her into the medical school?S:3.It was hard work and determination as well as her good nature that had got her in

33、her success at university that had made her famous.It was her kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients.“It was.that” is a structure used to emphasize “not her success at university” and “her kindness and consideration”.So we can see the two sentences mean that not her success at uni
34、versity but her kindness and consideration had made her famous.T:Absolutely right.Very good job!(writes the structure “It is.that.” on the blackboard)It was not her success at university that had made her famous.It was her kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients that had made her f
35、amous.Now please pay attention to the boldface:It was.that.This is a structure used to emphasize some speech of a sentence.For example:John saw her in the garden yesterday afternoon.We may say:It was John that/who saw her in the garden yesterday afternoon.(subject)It was her that/who John saw in the
36、 garden yesterday afternoon.(object)It was in the garden that John saw her yesterday afternoon.(place adverbial)It was yesterday afternoon that John saw her in the garden.(time adverbial)T:Please look at the sentences on the blackboard.Is there any connections between them?S:Oh,if we take the struct
37、ure away,the other parts of the sentence will make a simple sentence.T:Bingo.If fact,when we want to stress a person,we can use “that or who” while in other situations we can only used “that”.Do you have any questions about the structure?Ss:No.T:So lets do some practice to see whether you really gra
38、sp the structure. (Get the students to do some practice by emphasizing the underlined part of the sentences.)At the supermarket I met my former classmate.My cousin turned home from Britain last year.I rather than you helped her out of the trouble.Keys:It was at the supermarket that I met my former c
