教學建議（Suggested teaching notes）
一、教學內容分析
本單元圍繞“日期和月份”（Dates and months）和“吃飯”（Having meals）這兩個話題開展教學活動。主要語言項目是序數詞、月份的名稱和以have為主的動詞一般過去時。各課大致安排如下：
第45課主要教學12個月份的英語名稱和從first到twelfth的12個序數詞。通過兩組問答復習表示時間的英語名詞（minute, hour, day, week, month）和討論月份，同時復習形容詞比較級（worse, worst等）。本課出現了實義動詞的過去時問句（When did you start…？），但不是重點語言項目，僅僅是下一課的伏筆，這里只要求用短語About…ago回答，不需要用完整的句子回答。
第46課在前一課基礎上繼續教學從1st到31st的序數詞以及年月日的表達方法。通過對話介紹詢問日期的方法 What is/was the date today/yesterday？復習動詞be的過去時，并介紹實義動詞的一般過去時When did you have a meeting？What time did you have it？ We had it after school． When did you go home？等。
第47課圍繞著“昨天三頓飯吃些什么”這樣的主題，提供了書中主人公的情況，教學What did…have for breakfast/lunch/supper？Did…have…for…yesterday？Yes, he/she/they did． No, he/she/they didn't He/She/They had…
練習冊中練習1是一個信息交流活動，要求學生用這些句型彼此提問，了解較為真實的情況，填入表內。
第48課復習要點歸納小結了動詞have的過去時的陳述句、疑問句和答語。聽力訓練與第47課信息交流活動相同，通過聽力練習進一步鞏固所學句型。本課語音練習復習[tM,d{,]及有關字母和字母組合的拼讀規則，并教學[tr, dr, ts, dz]四個輔音音標及有關字母和字母組合的拼讀規則。
按照教學計劃，本單元教學正值辭舊迎新之際，因此加上了新年祝賀語Happy New Year！及答語The same to you！
二、教學方法建議
（一）教學英語的月份名稱
英語的12個月份名稱集中教學是比較困難的。有經驗的教師早在初一年級就在值日生報告中加上了日期和星期幾的內容了。有的班級甚至每天讓值日生在黑板上用英語寫日期。本單元以前部分月份名稱（September, October, November）已出現過。因此，到了本單元，教學難度不致很大，主要困難落到了發音和拼法上。啟發學生仔細觀察，讓他們發現這些詞的特點。12個詞中March, April, May, June和July基本符合拼讀規則。August和autumn的重讀音節相同，au讀作[&:]。January和February的后兩個音節相似，都含有雙元音[u+]加[ri]。最后四個月的名稱結尾都是-ber，而且重音都落在第二個音節上。有趣的是，September. November和December的最后兩個音節都是-ember['emb+]。而Sept., Nov. 和Dec.恰好是這幾個月的縮略形式。通過這樣的比較和聯想，記憶這些詞就會容易些。第二冊（下）練習冊的Additional revision exercises 中有個word puzzle，就是為練習12個月份詞設計的。在教學中，除了問 Which is the fourth month of the year？這類的問題，還可以問Which month comes after/before April？也可以直接翻開掛歷問月份：Which month is this？
（二）教學日期表達法
要用英語說“年、月、日”，除了學說月份，還得學會用于表達日期的序數詞和年代的讀法。關于序數詞的教法下一部分即將說明。在初中階段，僅教給學生一種日期的表示方法，即先說月份后說日期-“月份+the+序數詞”。例如：June the first, April the fourth, September the ninth等，而書寫時則是June 1（st）, April 4（th）, September 9（th）。
年代是由基數詞構成，如1997，通常讀作nineteen ninety-seven, 2000讀作twothousand，2001讀作 two thousand and one或twenty oh one。用英語說“年、月、日”時，先說月、日，后說年代。寫時年代之前有逗號。例如May 4，1919（讀作May the fourth，nineteen nineteen）；October 1，1998（讀作October the first，nineteen ninety-eight）。
教學完日期的表達方法后，應要求值日生每天進行這樣的問答：What's the date today？What was the date yesterday？等。這是復習鞏固日期表達法的最好的途徑。
（三）教學句型Which is your favourite…？
第45課第二部分問答所設計的情景是為了議論哪個月份好與不好的。而這些句型也適用于“喜好與厭惡”這一功能項目。如果有余力，可用一點時間進行這樣的討論：
l）A：Which is your favourite sport？
B：Football is．What about you？
A：I think pingpong is the best．
B：And the worst？
A：Running．It's the hardest．
B：No．I think jumping is harder than running．
2）A：What is your favourite colour？
B：I think red is the nicest．
A：And the worst？
B：Brown.
A：No. I think black is worse than brown.
學生還可以彼此就食品、飲料、水果等做類似的問答。
（四）學習序數詞的方法
本冊教科書每一個課次都有兩種標法，如Lesson 1, The first lesson。其用意就是為了讓學生不斷接觸序數詞，自然地習得。否則，猛然在一兩課內集中學幾十個序數詞必然感到困難。到了本單元教學時，一邊結合第45、46課所提供的情景教學，一邊可利用書后語法材料中的序數詞表進行歸納。重點指出first, second, third, fifth, eighth, ninth, twelfth, twentieth, twenty-first, fortieth, eightieth, ninetieth, hundredth, one hundred and first等。因為這些都有一定的特殊性或典型性，其余序數詞的構成有規律可循，不難掌握。當學生掌握規律時，還要經常復習。這里介紹四種復習的方法。
第一種最簡便，基數詞和序數詞配對。如口說one-first, two-second, three-third等等。不必說一百對，可以重點練習上面列出的典型數詞。也可由教師說基數詞，學生說或寫出序數詞。這種對比練習，既練了序數詞，又復習了基數詞。第二種加上名詞練習，如Lesson 5-the fifth lesson, Picture 6- the sixth picture, Room 11-the eleventh room。第三種是給學生編號，讓學生彼此問答：What's your number？My number is 12-the twelfth等。第四種可做游戲，例如Next number！（見第一冊第29課），但把基數詞換成序數詞。另外，還可做Bingo游戲。
（五）教學行為動詞的一般過去時
第45課第四部分初次出現了行為動詞過去時的疑問句When did you start in this school？When did we start this term？等。可以采取對比的方法介紹新的句型。首先問When do we start our autumn term？回答 On September 1st. 板書這組句子。然后把our autumn改成this, do改成did, 問When did we start this term？讓學生猜句子的意思，根據實際情況告訴學生答案：About weeks ago. 向學生說明did是do的過去式，無人稱和數的變化。此時，不要求學生用完整句子回答，所以可以任意問when的問題。如：When did you study the second lesson？When did Jim's class go and work on a farm？When did they pick apples？When did Lucy eat mooncakes at Han Meimei's home？When did Lin Tao go to the zoo with Jim？When did you talk about months in English？
第46和47課把過去時的動詞局限在動詞have的短語之中（除了have僅出現了go的過去式）。這樣做好讓學生較快地熟悉過去時的各種句子結構。盡管英語大多數動詞過去式是規則的，但常用的動詞多數卻不規則。這對于初學者很不利。選擇have/has的過去式had入手比較容易為學生所掌握。況且，“吃飯”（have meals）、“開會”（have a meeting）等與學生實際生活密切相關。于是，When did you have a meeting？What time did you have it？What did… have for… yesterday？Did you have… for… yesterday？加上肯定和否定的簡略答語，就這樣自然而然地介紹給了學生。如果學生理解了基本句型，還可趁機補充一些問句。如Did you have your school meeting last week？When did you have your class meeting？ Did you have four or five English lessons last term？Did you have an English class yesterday？Did you have a swim last Sunday？When did you go to the park？Did you have a good time？
這套初中課本設計了中外學生同校學習的情景，有固定的人物，有連貫的故事情節。這為練習過去時提供了較真實的情景。比如現在可以回憶初一第111課Jim's day，可用過去時的問句發問：When did Jim get up last Monday？ When did he have breakfast？What time did he go to school？ Did he go to school by bus？等。這時，有些動詞過去式還未學，因此回答不能用完整句，但并不影響口頭交際活動。待到本冊后幾個單元，就可以更加自由地就一些課文進行問答了。
（六）語音訓練
第48課復習了輔音[tM, d{]及有關的拼讀規則。這是一對清濁破擦音。有的學生受漢語“知、齒”的影響發不準這兩個音。糾正的方法是讓學生把嘴唇向前突出，微向外翻，形成喇叭形。這時口腔和舌頭的位置自動形成一種合適的位置，照這樣的口形發[tM, d{]較為準確。
第48課教學[tr，dr]和[ts，dz]兩組破擦音。其中每個輔音都是由爆破音和摩擦音組成，但形成了獨立的音素，切不可像朗讀輔音連綴那樣。[ts，dz]常見于名詞復數詞尾，如kites[kaits]，beds[bedz]等，不能讀成['kaits]和['bedz]。練習冊第48課練習1緊密配合本課語音練習。

補充注釋（Additional notes）
1．How many weeks are there in a year？一年有多少周？
這個問題的回答一般是 There are fifty-two weeks in a year．
2．What was the date yesterday？昨天幾號？
What day was it yesterday？昨天是星期幾？
前一句問日期，后一句問星期幾，兩句不要混。回答日期一般說年月日，但如果已知年代，只說月日。本冊教科書只出現了一種日期表達方式，即January 3，1999（月、日、年），其實，還有一種表達法，即3 January 1999（日、月、年）。3．It's much colder today．今天冷得多。
much 相當于a lot，在此句中是副詞，修飾 colder，加強比較的程度。又如：
It's getting much warmer now．現在天暖得多了。
He's getting a lot better these days．這些日子他好得多了。
與much相對應的有a little，如：
It is a little colder today．今天（比昨天）冷了一點兒。
Jim is a little taller than Li Let．吉姆比李雷稍稍高一點兒。
4．What time did you have it？你們是幾點鐘開的？
We had it after school．我們是放學以后開的。
這兩句中it代替前一句When did you have a meeting？（你們什么時候開會了？）中的a meeting。在漢語中，由于前句已說明“開會”，后面的幾句都可以省去賓語“會”。但在英語中，have是及物動詞，后面的賓語不能省去，為了不重復名詞meeting而要用it來代替。這種現象需提醒學生注意。
5．Did you have eggs for breakfast yesterday？
表示食物的名詞有的可數，有的不可數。在這個句型中，凡泛指的可數名詞，用復數形式，前面不用定冠詞。如：
Did you have noodles/dumplings/vegetables for lunch？
如果用an egg，那就是強調數量，指“一個蛋”。
6．Happy New Year！新年好！
當別人向你祝賀新年時，你可以同樣說Happy New Year！也可以答The same toyou！類似的情況還有Merry Christmas！（圣誕快樂！）Happy Spring Festival！（春節好！）

JASON-D）. Let the Ss look at the name for a minute. Then, books closed! See who can recite all the months in the correct order.
Step 5 Ask and answer
SB page 45, Part 2. Do this as a quiz. Divide the class into two teams. Choose a student to answer each question. If the answer is correct, give the team a point.
After ten questions, get a member of one team to set a question for a member of the other team.
Finally, Ss can ask and answer in pairs.

Say Now it is 199_. Write an earlier date（e. g. five years earlier）and say Five years ago, it was19_ _. Give some more examples.
SB page 45, Part4. Read through the questions.
Explain briefly that did is the Simple Past Tense form of do. Get the Ss to answer the questions orally, then in writing.
