T:I am fine too,thank you 1 T:welcome to the new concept English book three,developing skills ,I am MR Wang from the TT elite , It’s really great pleasure to be with you in this course ,I hope you will find your study to be great progress;大家好，下邊就由我來(lái)為大家講授新概念英語(yǔ)第三冊(cè)，第三冊(cè)的標(biāo)題是 developing skills，就是說(shuō)這一冊(cè)的學(xué)習(xí)者應(yīng)當(dāng)具有一定的基礎(chǔ)才談得上發(fā)展和提高，那么基礎(chǔ)的標(biāo)準(zhǔn)是什么呢，大致來(lái)說(shuō)就是英語(yǔ)中等水平，無(wú)論你是否學(xué)習(xí)過(guò)這套教材的前一、二冊(cè)，只要你認(rèn)為你已經(jīng)具備或大體具備英文的中等水平，都可以從這一冊(cè)開(kāi)始學(xué)習(xí)，what skill should you develop?briefly speaking,it’s language proficiency in listening speaking、reading and writing , 熟練的掌握這四項(xiàng)基本技能，是為了提高我們常說(shuō)的語(yǔ)感，我們還是會(huì)從一篇一篇的小故事開(kāi)始，就像這套教材的作者亞歷山大強(qiáng)調(diào)的，一篇有趣的故事可以提供一個(gè)活的語(yǔ)言環(huán)境，這樣我們學(xué)習(xí)到的就不是孤立的字詞，而是語(yǔ)言在具體環(huán)境當(dāng)中的交流和實(shí)際應(yīng)用，和語(yǔ)言后面潛在的文化信息.Step2 Lead in and presentation T:And now let’s start from the beginning ,;Lesson1:A puma at large，This lesson is about an escaping puma, 這課講的是一頭正在逃遁的美洲獅，first，listen to me read the text carefully，and see if you can answer this question:where must the puma have come from? T:Pumas are large, ‘cat-like animals’ which are found in America.When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London, they were not taken seriously.However, as the evidence began to accumulate, experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate, for the descriptions given by people who claimed to have seen the puma were extraordinarily similar.The hunt for the puma began in a small village where a woman picking blackberries saw a large cat only five yards away from her.It immediately ran away when she saw it, and experts confirmed that a puma will not attack a human being unless it is cornered.The search proved difficult, for the puma was often observed at one place in the morning and at another place twenty miles away in the evening.Wherever it went, it left behind it a trail of dead deer and small animals like rabbits.Paw prints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes.Several people complained of ‘cat-like noises’ at night and a businessman on a fishing trip saw the puma up a tree.The experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from ? As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one must have been in the possession of a private collector and somehow managed to escape.The hunt went on for several weeks, but the puma was not caught.It is disturbing to think that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside.T:So where must the puma have come from?注意這里用的是must have come from ,must 它的基本詞義是必須，但是它在這里表達(dá)的是一種 推斷和猜測(cè),我們?cè)倩氐竭@個(gè)問(wèn)題，where must the puma have come from？the text tells us that the puma must have escaped from the private collection,y也就是說(shuō)這頭美洲獅是一個(gè)私人豢養(yǎng)的，這個(gè)結(jié)論呢是在有呢很多線索之后得到的，整篇課文給我們講述的是越來(lái)越充實(shí)的證據(jù)（accumulating evidence），講述的是專家們由不太當(dāng)真(not taken seriously)到不得不去調(diào)查（felt obliged to investigate），到最后完全肯定的一個(gè)過(guò)程（fully convinced），那么這些證據(jù)究竟有哪些？又是怎樣影響了專家們的看法，請(qǐng)同學(xué)們?cè)趯W(xué)習(xí)中理清課文的這些脈絡(luò)。T:Now let’s look at some language points in the text T:A puma at large

T:Be at large(潛逃),Who can give me an example of this expression? S:有學(xué)生舉手，多叫幾名同學(xué)，然后老師也可以給一個(gè)： The escaped prisoners are still at large（逃犯還沒(méi)有落網(wǎng)）T:這篇課文在幾處都出現(xiàn)了表示看或看見(jiàn)的詞語(yǔ)，When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London……

People who claimed to have seen the puma…… The puma was often observed at one place……

T:表示看見(jiàn)這個(gè)意思，see是最常用的詞，而 observe要比see更加書(shū)面化，spot means to notice something very difficult to see ,or find something being looked for 表示看到了不太容易看到的東西，或者發(fā)現(xiàn)了正在尋找的東西。Who can give me an example? S:請(qǐng)學(xué)生回答；老師給出例子

I spotted someone coming out of the building

T:as the evidence began to accumulate, experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate……Accumulate means to gradually increase over a period of time 指的是逐漸增加或積累

T:feel obliged to 這是一個(gè)固定詞組，經(jīng)常用來(lái)做書(shū)面語(yǔ)，must，have to，have a duty to do 必須有義務(wù)、責(zé)任做……事前 S:請(qǐng)學(xué)生回答并給出例子eg：I felt obliged to invite him

T:The hunt for the puma began in a small village where a woman picking blackberries saw a large cat;Hunt 捕獵 搜尋

T:請(qǐng)同學(xué)翻譯go on a deer /fox hunt 獵（鹿、狐）；The hunt for the remains of the titanic（搜尋TITANIC殘骸）；Hunt for second-hand book（搜尋二手書(shū)）；Job-hunting（找工作）T:Pick采摘；Pick cotton摘棉花；

T:Pick and choose 挑挑揀揀

T:A puma will not attack a human being unless it is cornered;Cornered 陷入困境 被逼得走投無(wú)路

T:complain跟的介詞不同意思也不同complain about the weather 抱怨天氣不好;complain of a headache 述說(shuō)自己頭疼

worrying令人擔(dān)憂的不安的

T:Disturb 打攪 Sorry to disturb you 對(duì)不起打擾你了;Do not disturb

His strange behaviour disturbed me 他舉止反常讓我很擔(dān)心

T:However, as the evidence began to accumulate, experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate, for the descriptions given by people who claimed to have seen the puma were extraordinarily similar.T:大家都知道 在英文中基本的句型就是簡(jiǎn)單句 并列句以及復(fù)雜句，就是我們經(jīng)常聽(tīng)到的simple sentences

compound sentences complex sentences,這篇課文主要是有復(fù)雜句構(gòu)成的，now look at sentence please ,要理解一個(gè)復(fù)雜句，最重要的是要搞清句子的結(jié)構(gòu)，然后通過(guò)連接詞，分清主句和從句之間的關(guān)系，就是說(shuō)要把握主句和從句的位置，而主句和從句的關(guān)系是由連接詞來(lái)判斷的，在這個(gè)句子當(dāng)中，主句就是experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate，主句前邊有一 個(gè)as引導(dǎo)的從句，他表示的是一種伴隨主句同時(shí)發(fā)生的狀態(tài)，它的后邊又有一個(gè)for引導(dǎo)的從句來(lái)交代原因，而這個(gè)從句當(dāng)中有一個(gè)given，它起的實(shí)際上是一個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句的作用，用來(lái)修飾 descriptions，如果用從句來(lái)表達(dá)就是which had been given by people，而這個(gè)從句當(dāng)中由套著一個(gè)從句，是由who來(lái)引導(dǎo)的，用來(lái)修飾people，所以一個(gè)句子結(jié)構(gòu)不論有多么復(fù)雜，只要我們能把握連接詞，在句子當(dāng)中的作用，和意思，就不難理解。

T:When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted;the puma was often observed at one place in the morning and at another place;Paw prints were seen…… puma fur was found clinging to bushes;As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country

T:當(dāng)英文中表示一個(gè)事實(shí)的客觀性的時(shí)候往往用被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)，這篇課文就是這樣講的是美洲獅 在各處出現(xiàn)并且被人目擊的情形，我們來(lái)看看被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)在課文當(dāng)中的使用：had been spotted，was …… observed，were seen……，was found clinging，had been reported missing;另外was found clinging

had been reported missing 是在被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)之后加上現(xiàn)在分詞，起補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明主語(yǔ)的作用

T;我們知道了西方有收集動(dòng)物的人，在我們中國(guó)現(xiàn)在呢也有喂養(yǎng)寵物的人……
