Part One Listening and Speaking Step 1. Pronunciation and listening skills Inferring where conversations take place Tips

推断对话发生的地点是听力中常见的一种考题。遇到这样的题目,要注意听整个对话,理解对话的内容。不要听到某个表示地点的词就认为该对话发生在这里,导致选择错误。 Scripts 1.

W: Oh, dear, I’m tired. I can’t walk any farther.

M: Let’s go to the restaurant across the street and get something to eat, OK? Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place? 2.

W: Dear, I feel hungry now. How about you?

M: So do I. Let me call Room Service. Hello, Room Service? Please send a menu to Room 320 right away.

Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place? 3.

M: I’ll have the steak, French Fries, and let’s see, chocolate ice cream for dessert.

W: Oh, you know these things will ruin your health, too much fat and sugar, how about ordering some vegetables and fruit instead?

Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place? 4.

M: Excuse me, I’m looking for the emergency room. I thought it was on the first floor. W: It is. This is the basement. Take the elevator one flight up and turn left. Q: Where does the conversation most probably take place? Tips

推断对话发生的地点时要注意听完整个对话,理解对话的内容,切忌断章取义,听到某个表示地点的词就认为该话发生在那里,导致选择错误例如,在对话1 中,先提到了walk,又提到了 go to the restaurant across the street,综合这些,可以推断出该对话发生的地点是在大街上,而非其他地方。如果仅听到了restaurant 就作出选择的话,就会推断错误。 Step 2. Conversations

Good morning class! Today I’d like to introduce some English expressions about animals. Cats are one of the most popular pets among Americans; so it’s not surprising that there are many expressions about cats in American English.

If someone looks very proud and satisfied with himself, we might say, ―He looks like the cat that ate the canary.‖

If you reveal a secret or a surprise by accident, we can say, ―You let the cat out of the bag.‖ If you couldn’t speak or answer a question, someone might ask, ―Has the cat got your tongue?‖

And for the way you behave in class when the teacher leaves, we sometimes say,

―When the cat’s away, the mice will play,‖ meaning to do what they want and have fun when there is no supervision.

You may have also heard the expression, ―Curiosity killed the cat.‖ This is to warn someone not to ask too many questions, as it might get them into trouble. Oral work

The stores have to compete for customers in the Christmas season. 3.And if we fall ill or become miserable, we might become ―sick as a dog.‖ 如果生病了或状况很糟糕,我们可能会―sick as a dog(病得很严重)”。
