The students are expected to answer the questions in pairs.
Step 3. Reading
Get the students to read the dialogue for more detail information.
Step 4. Explanations to the dialogue
1. At the doctor's 在醫(yī)生的診所
在英語中, 常用從事某行業(yè)的人的所有格來表示他所工作的地方,如本課標題“At the doctor's ”就相當(dāng)在 At the doctor's clinic。又如:
a baker's 面包店(a baker's shop)
a barber's 理發(fā)店(a barber's shop)
a tailor's 裁縫店、成衣店(a tailor's shop)
The Bell's 貝爾電話公司(The Bell's Telephone Company)這種名詞的所有格結(jié)構(gòu)還可以用來表示某人的家。例如:
at his parents'(home) 在他父母親的家里
in her uncle's(house) 在她叔叔的住所
2. What can I do for you? 你有什么不舒服嗎?
這是表示“主動提供幫助”(offer one's help)時的交際用語。本課對話是在診所進行的,“What can I do for you?”是醫(yī)生為病人提供服務(wù)時說的話, 意思就是 :“你有什么不舒服嗎?”或“你來看病嗎?”。例如:
(D=Doctor; P=Patient)
D: What can I do for you? 你來看病嗎?
P: Well, I've got a cough. I couldn't sleep well. 我咳嗽,睡不好覺。
D: What can I do for you, sir? 先生,你看什么病?
P: I've got a pain here. I couldn't lift my right hand. 我這兒有點痛。我的右手抬不起來。
另外,“What can I do for you?”用在不同場合, 可以有不同的譯法。例如在商店里,店員對顧客說:“What can I do for you?”, 意思就是“你要買什么東西?”, 你可以回答說:“I'd like to buy …”。 如果在餐館里, 服務(wù)員問你“ What can I do for you?”, 意思就是“你想吃/喝點什么?”, 你可以回答說“I'd like to have a hamburger.” (我想吃漢堡包。) 或“A glass of beer, please.”(請來一杯啤酒)。 如果在售票處, 售票員問你“What can I do for you?”,意思就是“你買什么票?”,你可以根據(jù)實際情況回答,如“ Two tickets to Beijing for tomorrow, please.”(請買兩張明天去北京的車票。)
3. What's the matter? 你有什么不舒服?
“What's the matter (with you)?” 本意是“ (你) 怎么啦?”,用以表示關(guān)懷和焦慮。本課對話是在診所進行的,這句話就是醫(yī)生詢問病情時的用語,意思是“你有什么不舒服?”。
類似的表達還有:What's wrong with you?/What's troubling
you? 例如:
D:What's the matter with you? 你有什么不舒服?
P:I coughed a great deal last night. 昨晚我咳得很厲害。
D:What's wrong with you? 你有什么不舒服?
P:I've got a headache. I feel terrible. 我頭疼得很厲害。
4. It's nothing serious. 這不要緊。/沒什么大問題。
這是醫(yī)生在檢查病人后對病人說的安慰話語。例如:
P:I don't feel well. I've got a bad headache. 我覺得不舒服,頭很疼。
D:Let me examine you. 我來給你檢查一下。
(A while later.)
D:Don't worry. You've got a cold. It's nothing serious, but you'd better have a good rest and drink plenty of water. Take this medicine three times a day and
you'll be well soon. 別著急。你感冒了,沒有什么大問題,不過, 你得好好休息一下,多喝些水。這個藥一天服三次,你很快會好起來的。
注意,修飾不定代詞something、anything、nothing 等的形容詞,應(yīng)放在這些不定代詞的后面。例如:
P:Is there anything wrong with my back? 我的背部有什么毛病嗎?
D:No, nothing wrong. /I don't think it's anything serious.
沒有什么問題。/我認為沒有什么大問題。
5. I advise you not to eat fruit that isn't ripe, in future. 我勸你今后不要吃不熟的水果了。
(1) 勸告某人做/不做某事時,可用下列交際用語:advise sb. to do/not to do sth. 例如:
P:Is there anything wrong with my heart? 我的心臟有什么問題嗎?
D:Yes, there is something wrong with your heart. I advise you not to smoke any more. 是有點問題。我勸你不要再吸煙了。
D:I advise you to take a physical examination. 我勸你做一次體格檢查。
P:Do you think I really need it? 你認為我的確需要做體檢嗎?
D:Yes, I think so. 我認為要做。
(2) in future與in the future都表示“在將來”的意思, 一般可以互換。但前者強調(diào)“從今以后/今后”(from now on) 的意思;后者著重表示“將來某個時候/將來” ( sometime in the future) 的意思。例如:Don't do that again. Be more careful in future. 別再那樣做了。今后更要注意了。
I promised him to eat less sugar in future. 我答應(yīng)他(我)今后少吃糖。
More peaches will be harvested by our farm in the future.
我們農(nóng)場將來會收獲更多的桃子。
In the future, computers will become smaller and work faster.
計算機將來會變得更小,工作得更快。

Step 5. Language points
1. Every person needs water and a diet of healthy foods.
每個人都需要水和健康的食物。
(1) diet和food都可以作“食物”解。但前者是抽象名詞, 常指“飲食”而言,或指為特殊需要而規(guī)定的食物;food 是一般用語,指具體的食物,凡是吃的喝的都屬food。它通常用作不可數(shù)名詞,常用單數(shù)。但在表示食物的種類時,也可用復(fù)數(shù)( 如本句中的foods)。例如:
The doctor advised him to take a special diet to lose weight.
醫(yī)生勸他吃減肥的特別飲食。
The best liquid diet for the patient is milk but she doesn't like it.
最好的給病人吃的流質(zhì)食物是牛奶,但她不喜歡喝。
Healthy foods include fruits, eggs, vegetables and some soft drinks.
健康食物包括水果、雞蛋、蔬菜和軟飲料。
Milk is the natural food for young babies. 牛奶是嬰幼兒吃的天然食物。
(2)注意下列派生詞的構(gòu)詞法:
名詞+后綴-y→形容詞
health(健康) +-y → healthy(健康的)
cloud(云) +-y → cloudy(多云的)
rain(雨) +-y→ rainy(多雨的)
salt(鹽) +-y→ salty(咸的)
weight(重量) +-y→ weighty(重的)
fun(滑稽) +-y→ funny(滑稽的)
2. They eat different kinds of food which change into energy.
人們吃的各種各樣的食物都能轉(zhuǎn)化成能量。
短語動詞 change into 作 “轉(zhuǎn)變成” 解 (to become something different)。例如:
Everything she eats changes into fat. 她吃的東西都變成脂肪了。
When temperature goes down to 0℃, water changes into ice.
當(dāng)溫度降至0℃時,水就變成了冰。
上述例句中的change是不及物動詞。change還可以作及物動詞,構(gòu)成“change A into B”結(jié)構(gòu),意思是“把A變成B”,可用于被動句。例如:
Do you know how to change these things into ice cream?
你知道怎樣把這些東西制成冰淇淋嗎?
Please change this sentence into a special question.
請把這個句子改成一個特殊疑問句。
Raise the temperature, and the ice will be changed into water.
升高溫度,冰就會變成水。
3. The energy is measured in calories. 這種能量是以卡來計算的。
句中的介詞短語“in calories”是“以卡(為單位)”的意思,這里的in作“以……”、“用……”解!敖樵~ in+ 計量單位的復(fù)數(shù)形式”表示計算或度量的標準。例如:
In Britain, the weight is generally measured in pounds.
在英國,重量通常以磅來計算。

居住面積是以平方米來計算的。
The distance in space is told in light years. 宇宙中的距離是以光年來計算的。
4. While you are at school, or walking home, your body is burning up 100 calories an hour. (=… your body is using 100 calories an hour.)在學(xué)校讀書或者走路回家的時候,你的身體每小時要消耗 100 卡的熱量。
短語動詞burn up原意是“燒掉”、“燒毀”,本句中轉(zhuǎn)意為“用掉”“消耗掉”。例如:
Don't burn up these old books. They might be useful.
不要燒掉這些書,它們也許還有用。
The factory burned up completely last night. 昨晚那家工廠徹底地?zé)龤Я恕?/p>
Do you know how much energy you will burn up during the relay race?
你知道在進行接力賽時要消耗多少能量嗎?
5. When playing football or basketball, you might be using 400 calories an hour. (=When you are playing football or basketball, ……) 踢足球或打籃球時,你可能每小時要消耗400卡熱量。
在帶有時間狀語從句(when-clause)的主從復(fù)合句中, 如果從句中的主語與主句中的主語相同, 則從句中的主語可以省去,而構(gòu)成“when+ ing形式”的結(jié)構(gòu)。例如:
When the doctor was examining me, he said,“ Nothing serious.” = When examining me, the doctor said, “nothing serious.” 醫(yī)生給我檢查身體時說道:“沒有什么大問題!
When he was eating the peach, he found it too green to eat. = When eating the peach, he found it too green to eat. 他吃桃子的時候,發(fā)現(xiàn)桃子太生了,不能吃。
6. On Sports Day, during the relay race, you will use most of all , perhaps as much as 650 calories an hour. 在運動會上,在接力賽中,你消耗的熱量較多,每小時多達650卡。
“as much/many as”結(jié)構(gòu)作“多達”、“多到……程度”解。例如:
There is plenty of rain here, often as much as seventy inches a year.
這兒雨水很多,每年的降雨量常常多達70英寸。
As many as 240, 000 people lost their lives in a terrible earthquake in Tang Shan. 在唐山一次可怕的地震中,死亡人數(shù)多達24萬。
在“as…as”結(jié)構(gòu)中還可以加入其它的形容詞或副詞,表示“到……程度”,如“as long as(長達),as high as(高達) , as deep as(深達),as early as (早在……時候)等。例如:
The building is as high as 120 metres. 那座大廈高達120米。

早在十九世紀,英國人就開始控制香港了。
7. The Chinese diet is considered to be the healthiest in the world. (=People think that the Chinese diet is the healthiest in the world.) 中國的飲食被認為是世界上最健康的飲食。
Consider 作 “認為” 解時, 后面可跟不定式的復(fù)合結(jié)構(gòu)(consider sb./sth. to be…)。 本句中的謂語動詞用的是這個結(jié)構(gòu)的被動式。例如:
People consider the Western diet to be unhealthy diet.=The Western diet is considered to be unhealthy diet. 西方的飲食被認為是不健康的飲食。
Ice cream is considered to contain too much sugar. =People consider ice cream to contain too much sugar. 人們認為冰淇淋含糖量太高了。

8.It (The Chinese diet) is rich in fibre and low in sugar ad fat. 中國的飲食含有很多的纖維,而糖和脂肪的含量卻很少。

一般地說,“be + adj. + in ”結(jié)構(gòu)常用來表示“在……方面的特征”。例如:
He seems to be strong in appearance, but actually he is unhealthy.
他表面上看來很強壯,但事實上他并不健康。
The computer is small in size but high in speed. 這種計算機體積雖小,而速度很快。
9. Because of this, they put on weight very easily. (=…,they become heavier and fatter easily.) 正因為這樣,他們的體重很容易增加。
(1)because of是短語介詞,作“因為”解,后跟名詞或代詞,構(gòu)成介詞短語,在句中作原因狀語。例如:He hasn't had anything for two days because of illness. 因為生病,他兩天沒吃東西了。
He eats lots of sweets. Because of this, he has bad teeth. 他吃糖吃多了,因此,牙齒不好。
(2) put on weight的意思是“增加體重”、“長胖”(become heavier and fatter)。 它的反義詞組是 “l(fā)ose weight”, 意思是“減少體重”、“減肥”(become lighter and thinner) 。例如:

Step 5. Language points
1. Scores of people went there in the first few days after its opening. (=Lots of people went to the new restaurant……) 開張的頭幾天,許許多多的人去那家新餐館吃飯。
Score n. 二十。它所構(gòu)成的詞組scores of/a score of 作“許多”解,相當(dāng)于lots of /a lot of的意思, 但前者是書面語,后者更常用于口語中。例如:“How many people were present at the party?”--“A score or more.”

The owner of the shop is a man of about three score years.
那家商店的主人是一個六十來歲的男人。
Scores of Westerners came to visit the Great Wall last week.
上周有許多西方人來參觀長城。
I have been to the hamburger restaurant a score of times.
我到那家漢堡包餐館去過許多次。
2. “Not good value for money,” one person said. 有一個人說:“花這個錢真不值得。”
引號中的這句話是承接上文而來的。上文說:“……; others found it expensive!(……另一些人覺得漢堡包太貴了。),下文說:“Not good value for money.”。 這是一個不完全句, 意思相當(dāng)于: It's not worth the high price.
3. The foods that you buy in hamburger restaurants are high in fat, sugar and salt. (= The foods …contain a large amount of fat, sugar and salt.)
你在漢堡包餐館買的食物所含的脂肪、糖和鹽的成分都很高。
這是一個主從復(fù)合句,主句是“The foods…are high in fat, sugar and salt.”, 中間插入一個定語從句“that you buy in hamburger restaurants”,修飾先行詞foods。 主句中的謂語用了動詞詞組 “be high in ,同上課學(xué)的“be rich in”的意思相近。例如:
Coca Cola is considered to be rich/high in sugar.
人們認為可口可樂的含糖量很高。
The shirts that the shop sells are high in quality.
這家商店出售的襯衫都是高質(zhì)量的。
4. As a result, many Westerners die at an early age from heart illnesses.
結(jié)果許多西方人因心臟疾病而早逝。
die from意思是“死于……(疾病或意外事故等)”。例如:
He died from a serious disease. 他因患重病而死亡。
Scores of people died from floods last summer. 去年夏天,許多人死于水災(zāi)。
“因疾病或年老而死亡”還可以用die of。例如:
He died of heart illness. 他因心臟病而死去。
He lived long years and died of old age. 他很長壽,無疾而終(因年老而去世)。
5.在Practice和Discussion中有這樣兩個疑問句:
Which food do you think is healthy and which is unhealthy?
你認為哪種食物是健康的,哪種是不健康的呢?
Which of the answers do you think is the best one?
你認為在這些答案中哪一個是最佳答案?
這兩個特殊疑問句中都有一個插入語“do you think”( 用倒裝語序),其它的部分用正常語序。類似的例句如下:
What performance do you think we should give at the party?
你看我們在晚會上應(yīng)表演什么節(jié)目。
When do you think they will be back? 你認為他們什么時候會回來?
Where do you think we should travel to? 你認為我們該去哪兒旅行。
此外,注意unhealthy的構(gòu)詞法。它是由“前綴un-+形容詞”構(gòu)成。前綴un-有否定的含義,所構(gòu)成的新詞在詞義上與原來的形容詞詞義相反。
