第 29 课 · 为什么不想住郊外·室内外景色

📌 这节课讲了什么

一节口语课,三块内容:

1. 如何自己创造拓展句 —— 名词后面加定语/介词短语,时间后面加 when,复杂意思用 what/how/why;
2. 描述房间:用"adj + N + 分词短语"把工作台说细(where there is a monitor glowing with code …);
3. 形容照片 + 为什么不想住在这个地方:原生态自然风光的说法、以及"生活设施/大城市"那一套理由。

最后补了一个发音点:重音在元音上,live 的元音短。

🧱 框架:如何自己创造拓展句?

板书写了三条"加长规则":

示例(板书原句,题目是 Do you prefer the mountains or the sea?)

I slightly prefer the sea, especially a coastline that has both cliffs and sandy beaches.(名词 → 定语从句)

I tend to go there in late afternoon, when the sun is lower and the water sparkles.(时间 → when)

What the sea gives me is a feeling of openness and calm, which I don't always get from mountains.(复杂意思 → what 从句 + 定语从句)

Mountains are impressive, but for me they can feel a bit enclosing, when the sky gets hidden by peaks.(时间 → when)

So my choice is the sea with its endless horizon.(名词 → 介词短语)

注意最后一句:一个介词短语(with its endless horizon)就够了,不必每句都上从句。

💬 场景一:描述你的房间(workstation 照片)

核心句式:adj + N + 分词短语(板书大字)。意思是:先给形容词和名词,后面挂一个分词短语当修饰。

板书列的短语:

• a monitor glowing with code(闪着代码的显示器)
• an ergonomic chair(人体工学椅)
• a mechanical keyboard connected with a cable(连着线的机械键盘)
• arranged with precision(摆得整整齐齐)

示范句(板书原句):

Please describe your room. — My room is equipped with a futuristic work station, where there is a monitor glowing with code.

结构:先说房间里有什么(my room is equipped with ...),再用 where there is ... 落到细节,细节本身还是"名词 + 分词短语"(a monitor glowing with code)。

💬 场景二:形容这张照片 + 为什么不想住在照片这个地方

板书的任务:形容这张照片 + 说明为什么不想住在照片里的这个地方。

1. 形容景色(室内往外看)

• there is nothing but untamed nature(除了原生态自然什么都没有)
• raw nature 原生态自然风光
• wheat dancing with the wind(麦子在风里跳舞)
• golden swaying in the wind(金黄一片随风摇摆)

完整句(板书原句):

There is nothing but untamed nature, rolling hills, golden wheat dancing with the wind, not a single person in sight, creating a sense of quietness and isolation.

when I look through floor-to-ceiling windows(当我透过落地窗往外看)

2. 为什么不想住这里

I don't wanna live there.

living there is like being trapped in an area where there are no amenities(生活设施)

I am a big fan of urban areas / big cities.

for food, for example, if I wanna have some bullfrog topped with some special spices, it's so heartbreaking not being able to get it right away.

(water / stir-fried bullfrog / spice —— 板书还记了这道菜的词,it is a dish topped with ...)

3. 两个句型(板书底部)

• It is N that VO —— 定语从句 / 强调句结构
• It's adj doing —— 动名词做主语:

  It's so nice having you.(= Having you is so nice.) It's so heartbreaking not being able to get it right away.

🔊 发音:live / leave

板书:重音在元音上;leave 和 live 对比时,live 的元音短。

leave / liːv / —— 长元音 live / lɪv / —— 短元音(板书标:短)

句子里的重音要落在元音上,不要落在辅音上;说 live 的时候不要拖长,拖长了就变成 leave。

📝 课前阅读核对(板书上的阅读题)

板书上还有一组阅读练习(Test 1),当堂核对了这两处:

• Q29(哪一节包含:an account of a major collision that occurred in space)—— 板书标 A。
• Q15(哪一段包含:reference to the aspects of any tree that contribute to its worth)—— 板书标 A。

其余题干(供复习定位):

• Q27–31(六节 A–F,哪节包含):27 a reference to the cooperation that takes place to try and minimise risk;28 an explanation of a person's aims;30 a comparison between tracking objects in space and the efficiency of a transportation system;31 a reference to efforts to classify space junk。
• Q32–35(摘要填空,ONE WORD ONLY):The Inter-Agency Space Debris Coordination Committee —— The committee gives advice on how the 32 ___ of space can be achieved. The committee advises that when satellites are no longer active, any unused 33 ___ or pressurised material that could cause 34 ___ should be removed. Although operators of large satellite constellations accept that they have obligations as stewards of space, Holger Krag points out that the operators that become 35 ___ are unlikely to prioritise removing their satellites from space.（板书圈出的定位词:of space can be achieved / unused / pressurised material / become / prioritise removing）
• Q14–18(七段 A–G,哪段包含):14 bad outcomes for a forest when people focus only on its financial reward;15 reference to the aspects of any tree that contribute to its worth;16 mention of the potential use of wood to help run vehicles;17 examples of insects that attack trees;18 an alternative name for trees that produce low-use wood。

相关原文(板书保留的一段,讲树木的价值与"低用途木材"):

A tree's 'value' depends on several factors including its species, size, form, condition, quality, function, and accessibility, and depends on the management goals for a given forest. The same tree can be valued very differently by each person who looks at it. ...

Thinnings and dense and dead wood removal for fire prevention also center on the production of low-use wood. However, it is important to remember that some retention of what many would classify as low-use wood is very important. The tops of trees that have been cut down should be left on the site so that their nutrients cycle back into the soil. In addition, trees with many cavities are extremely important habitats for insect predators like woodpeckers, bats and small mammals. ... Finally, rare species of trees in a forest should also stay behind as they add to its structural diversity.

📖 词汇与表达

⚠️ 提醒 / 易错

1. 拓展句不要只加从句。 名词后面加定语从句、也可加介词短语(with its endless horizon);时间加 when;复杂的想法才动用 what/how/why。
2. 描述房间的顺序:先说"房间里有什么"(be equipped with),再 where there is 落到细节,细节用"名词 + 分词短语"撑着,不要一句一个短句往外蹦。
3. live 不要拖长。 长元音 /iː/ 是 leave;live 是短元音 /ɪ/,重音落在元音上。
4. It's adj doing 这个结构要先在心里还原:It's so nice having you. = Having you is so nice. —— 还原得出来,说得就不会错。
5. 形容照片的万能骨架:There is nothing but + 景物 + not a single person in sight, creating a sense of ...;再说"我不愿意住"就接 living there is like being trapped in an area where there are no amenities。
