Next I would like you to listen to the tape and read the passage again. After you finish reading, you should have got the answers to these questions:1. 1. When the writer was surfing the Internet, what drew her attention?2. Was it difficult for Lin Qiaozhi to get a medical training?3. What had got her into medical school?4. What made Lin Qiaozhi famous?5. What were most of Lin Qiaozhir s stories about?T:Time is up. Who can answer the first question?S: 1. When the writer was surfing the Internet, a small book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies by following some simple rules for keeping babies clean and healthy.T:How did you know that it drew his attention?S:He said the book caught his eye.T:So here “something catch one, s eye“ means. ?Ss: It means udraw one' s attention某物吸引某人的注意，某人看到了某物”.T:Good. (writes “ sth. catch on。' eye= sth. catch one, s attention/sb. see sth. " on the blackboard)What about a book explaining how to cut the death rate from having and caring for babies by following some simple rules for keeping babies clean and healthy?What does it mean?S: In Chinese, it means 一本介绍如何在妇女怀孕到护理婴儿的过程中通过一些使婴儿保持 清洁健康的简单规则来降低死亡率的书。explaining how to cut the death rate from having and cari ng for babies by fol lowing some simple rules for keeping babies clean and healthyv is the attribute.T:Good. ( writes "匕-ing as attribute“ on the blackboard and gives more examples with ing as the attribute)Let' s see the second question.S:2.Yes, it was difficult for Lin Qiaozhi to get a medical training. T:Yes or no?Ss:Yes.T:How did you know?Ss:The first sentence in the third paragraph.T:Can you understand the sentence? Ss:Yes/ No.T:Who can explain the sentence?S:Let me try. This is a complex sentence. The first “it" is an empty subject and the real subject is how difficult it must have been for a woman to get a medical training so long ago when women' s education was always placed second to men' s. The second "is" also an empty subject. It stands for “to get a medical training for a womcin so long ago when women' s education was always placed second to men* s” . “when women , s education was always placed second to men, s“ is a relative clause to modify Mlong ago” . In Chinese, the whole sentence means ”在 那久远的年代,当女性的教育总是低于男性的时候,一个女子去学医一定是相当困难的,这想 法闪电般地闪过我的脑海。”T:Good. (writes and explains umodal verb + have been” and wplace A second to B” on the blackboard, giving more examples) Let' s see the third question. What had got her into the medical school?S:3. It was hard work and determination as well as her good nature that had got her into medical school.T:The next one?What made Lin Qiaozhi famous?Was it her success at university that had made her famous?Ss:No.S:4.It was her kindness and the consideration she showed to all her patients made her famous.T:How did you get the answer?S: I got the answer from the two sentences-It was not her success at university that had made her famous. It was her kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients. "It was. thatw is a structure used to emphasize “not her success at university” and “her kindness and consideration” . So we can see the two sentences mean that not her success at university but her kindness and consideration had made her famous.Absolutely right. Very good job! (writes the structure "It isthat" on the blackboard)It was not her success at university that had made her famous.It was her kindness and consideration she showed to all her patients that had made her famous.Now please pay attention to the boldface:It was. that. This is a structure used to emphasize some speech of a sentence. For example:John saw her in the garden yesterday afternoon. Wc may say:11 was John that/who saw her in the garden yesterday afternoon, (subject) It was her that/who John saw in the garden yesterday afternoon, (object) It was in the garden that John saw her yesterday afternoon, (place adverbial) It was yesterday afternoon that John saw her in the garden, (time adverbial) T:Please look at the sentences on the blackboard. Is there any connections between them?S:Oh, if we take the structure away, the other parts of the sentence will make a simple sentence.T:Bingo. If fact, when we want to stress a person, we can use “that or who“ while in other situations we can only used “that” . Do you have any questions about the structure?Ss:No.T:So let' s do some practice to see whether you really grasp the structure.(Get the students to do some practice by emphasizing the underlined part of the sentences.)At the supermarket I met my former classmate.My cousin turned home from Britain last year.I rather than you helped her out of the trouble.Keys:It was at the supermarket that I met my former classmate.It was from Britain that my cousin turned home last year.It was I rather than you that/ who helped her out of the trouble.T:Now let* s come to the last question. What were most of Lin Qiaozhi, s stories about?S:5. Most of her stories were about how she went late a night to deliver a baby for a poor fami1y who could not pay her.T:Deliver a baby means.S:It means give birth to a baby.T:Good job. (writes “deliver a baby= give birth to a baby” on the blackboard)Step 5 RetellingGet the students to retel 1 the passage by fi1 ling in the blanks.Lin Qiaozhi wrote a small book for in the who were get to a hospital easily.It was to help them to their babies properly.Qiaozhi 1 ived in the early.
