三．布置作业

2．阅读Section A 3a的短文，并完成表格。

1．阅读Section B 3a并做3b。

How long have you been collecting shells? 第四课时

一．疑难解析

I．如何表示“从过去开始一直持续到现在，有可能还要持续下去的动作”。如：到现在为止她滑冰已经有四个小时了。又如：我从十岁起就一直在集邮。我们采用如下的方法来表示“从过去开始一直持续到现在，还要持续下去的动作”：

主语 + have / has been + 现在分词，如：

1．She has been skating for four hours.

到现在为止她滑冰已经有四个小时了。

2．I have been collecting stamps since I was tenyears old.

我从十岁起就一直在集邮。

在这两个句子中，have和has是助动词，因此把助动词题签，就构成了一般疑问句，在have或has后面加not，就构成了否定形式，have not和has not可以分别缩写成haven’t和hasn’t 。如：

1．Have you been doing your homework since thismorning?

从今天早晨起你就一直在写作业吧？

（表明写作业这个动作从今天早晨就开始了，一直持续到现在，还要持续下去。）

2．I haven’t been seeing films for a long time.

我有很长时间没有看电影了。

（表明没有看电影这个动作从过去一直持续到现在，还要继续持续下去。）

II．区分“主语 + have / has been + 现在分词”和“主语 + 动词过去式”这两个句式的不同点及熟练掌握这两个句式的用法。

1．“主语 + have / has been + 现在分词”表示动作从过去开始一直持续到现在，并且还要继续持续下去。如：

He is a pianist. He has been playing the piano forabout twenty years.

他是一个钢琴家。他弹钢琴大约有二十年了。

弹钢琴这个动作从二十年前就开始了，一直持续到现在，由于他是个钢琴家，那么弹钢琴这个动作还要继续持续下去。这里强调持续，而不是二十年间他一刻不停地在弹琴。又如：

I have been collecting snow globes for sevenyears.

我收集里面有雪花的玻璃装饰品有七年了。

我有这个爱好，七年间我一直在收集这样的装饰品，但是不等于七年间我别的什么也没干。

2．“主语 + 动词的过去式”表式过去某个时间已经发生了动作，有比较明确的表示过去的时间状语。如：

I did my homework last night.

我昨天晚上做的作业。

表明“做作业”这个动作发生在昨天晚上，动作没有持续性。

二．写作指导

大家在学完这个单元以后要完成两个写作任务，即写一个招聘广告和一封应聘信。招聘广告可以模仿49页上的第3题来写，应聘信可参考第48页上的3a来写。

下面请看示例：

学校歌咏队要参加一个歌咏比赛，故而要招聘新成员，请你帮歌咏队写一个招聘广告。

应聘信
