Unit 6 It is a mystery Lesson 21~24 一. 本周教学内容： 本周我们将学习第六单元“它是个谜”的第21至24课。 （Unit 6 It is a mystery Lesson 21~24） 二. 重点、难点： 1. Joyce, do you know that there’s an island named after a holiday? Joyce, 你知道有一个以一个节日命名的岛吗？ name sb. / sth. after sb. / sth. 意为“以……的名字来命名”，也常用于被动语态中：be named after sb. / sth. eg. He named his daughter after his grandmother. 他以祖母的名字给女儿取名。 The city was named after a great man. 这座城市以一位伟人的名字而命名。 name sb. / sth. + n. 把……取名为…… We named our son Tom. 我们给儿子取名为汤姆。 name的过去分词常作后置定语修饰前面的名词。 eg. a girl named Lucy 一个叫露西的女孩 此时也可用called来代替。 2. No one knows for sure how the Moai came to be. 没人确切知道毛埃的来历。 （1）for sure是非正式的口语，意为“无疑”。 eg. I think he has gone abroad, but I couldn’t say for sure. 我想他是出国了，但我说不准。 另外，关于sure的短语还有：be sure + of / to do / that … 确信，对……有把握；make sure of sth. / that … 确认，弄清楚，确保。 eg. Be sure to write and tell me all your news. 务必（来信）把你的所有情况都告诉我。 You’re sure of getting the prize. 你肯定能获奖。 Please make sure that the meeting goes well. 请设法确保会议顺利进行。 Make sure the windows are closed. 确保窗户是关着的。 （2）to be表示“形成，存在” To be or not to be, that is the question. 生存还是毁灭，那是问题所在。 3. The island also has many kinds of rock carvings written in a kind of language that exists only in this part of the world. 这个岛也有许多种类的石头雕刻是用一种仅在世界上的这个地方存在的文字写的。 （1）written in a kind of language为过去分词作定语，修饰carvings. eg. I can’t find the knife bought yesterday. 我找不到昨天买的那把小刀了。 （2）exist v. 生存，存在 Do you believe that God exists? 你相信上帝存在吗？ We can’t exist without food. 没有食物我们便不能生存。 The old lady exists only on coffee and bread. 老太太仅靠咖啡和面包生活。 习惯用语： exist as 作为……而存在，以……形态存在 exist in 存在于……中 exist on … 靠……生活[生存] 4. And this written language appeared many years ago, perhaps even before written Chinese took shape! 这种书写语言出现在许多年前，甚至可能出现在书写中文成形之前。 （1）written 此处直接作为形容词来用。又如：spoken English英语口语，a broken cup 一个摔破了的杯子。 （2）take shape：成形，具体化，实现。一般来说这个短语不用在被动语态中。 An idea slowly took shape in his mind. 一个想法在他的头脑中逐渐形成。 The plan will soon take shape. 那个计划很快就会定下来。 After weeks of work, the new book
