depend on 與rely on
(1)這兩個(gè)詞都可以表示“依靠，依賴(lài)”，depend on 通常表示一種客觀(guān)情況，有時(shí)說(shuō)明一個(gè)規(guī)律，這種“依靠”的對(duì)象往往是主語(yǔ)存在或成功的原因。

Ⅲ. 語(yǔ)法精講
10. 強(qiáng)調(diào)句型
公式：It is / was + 被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分+that/who+其他成分。
注意：
(1)其他成分中的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞是現(xiàn)在時(shí)態(tài)用it is, 若是過(guò)去時(shí)態(tài)則用it was.
(2)被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分為句子的主語(yǔ)、賓語(yǔ)或狀語(yǔ)。
(3)被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分為人，既可用who, 也可用that; 若為其他只能用that.
1. They plant trees on the hill every spring.
(1)強(qiáng)調(diào)主語(yǔ)：It is they that/who plant tress on the hill every spring.
-Who is it that plant trees on the hill every spring.
(2)強(qiáng)調(diào)賓語(yǔ)：It is trees that they plant on the hill every spring.
-What is it that they plant on the hill every spring.
(3)強(qiáng)調(diào)地點(diǎn)狀語(yǔ)：It is on the hill that they plant trees every spring.
-Where is it that they plant trees every spring.
(4)強(qiáng)調(diào)時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)：It is every spring that they plant trees on the hill.
-When is it that they plant trees on the hill.
2. 強(qiáng)調(diào)not……until句型時(shí)，應(yīng)把not until……一起放在It is /was 之后
e. g. I didn’t realize I was wrong until then.
-It was not until then that I realized I was wrong.
3. 強(qiáng)調(diào)句型的反意疑問(wèn)句應(yīng)反問(wèn)it, 遵循前肯后否，前否后肯的原則。
e. g. It is I who tell you a story, isn’t it
4. 強(qiáng)調(diào)句型與時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句的區(qū)別，去掉it is/was……that 之后，把被強(qiáng)調(diào)部分還原到原來(lái)的位置看句意是否完整，如果完整則為強(qiáng)調(diào)句型，若不完整則為時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句。
e. g. It was at 5 o’clock that he arrived home. (強(qiáng)調(diào)句)
It was 5 o’clock when he arrived home. (時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句)
5. 若強(qiáng)調(diào)謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞，則用do, does, did+動(dòng)詞原形，譯為“的確”，“千萬(wàn)”，“一定”等意思，只能用于陳述句和祈使句，只有一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)和過(guò)去時(shí)的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞才可以強(qiáng)調(diào)。
e. g. Do be quiet! (一定要安靜)
He does want to learn English well. (他的確想學(xué)好英語(yǔ))
He said he would come and he did come. 他說(shuō)他會(huì)來(lái)的，的確來(lái)了。
【知識(shí)拓展】
1. develop vt.
(1)發(fā)展，成長(zhǎng)
e. g. In less than 10 years, it develops from a seed into a full-grown tree.
不到十年，它從一粒種子長(zhǎng)成一棵枝葉繁茂的大樹(shù)。
(2)開(kāi)發(fā)(尤指土地，資源等)。
e. g. develop the natural resources of a country. 開(kāi)發(fā)一國(guó)的自然資源
(3)(攝影)顯影，沖印：
e. g. Our photos haven’t been developed yet. 我們的照片還沒(méi)洗出來(lái)。
注意：developing country (發(fā)展中國(guó)家)
developed country (發(fā)達(dá)國(guó)家)
［過(guò)關(guān)題］
__________ , the young man is healthy and strong.
A. Fully developed B. Fully growing
C. Full developing D. Full grown
答案：選A，developed 表示發(fā)育過(guò)了的，發(fā)育良好的，而grown 表示成長(zhǎng)，不合題意。
2. nearly與almost
(1)這兩個(gè)詞意思相近，肯定句中可以換用；一般來(lái)說(shuō)，almost的差距比nearly 小，因此，在差一刻開(kāi)午飯時(shí)，可以說(shuō)：It’s nearly lunchtime. 快開(kāi)午飯了。
在差5分鐘的時(shí)候，可以說(shuō)：It’s almost lunchtime. 馬上要開(kāi)午飯了。
(2)almost 能和never, no, none, nothing, nobody, nowhere too, more than等連用，這種情況下不用nearly。
e. g. almost never(=hardly ever)幾乎從不
almost nobody 幾乎無(wú)人
almost no money 幾乎沒(méi)錢(qián)
(3)nearly 可以和not 連用，not nearly 是“遠(yuǎn)不如”的意思，相當(dāng)于nowhere near, 但almost不和not 單獨(dú)連用。
e. g. not nearly enough money 遠(yuǎn)遠(yuǎn)不夠的錢(qián)
(4)almost 和nearly 都可以用在行為動(dòng)詞的否定式之前。
e. g. He almost 或(He nearly) didn’t hear what I said.
他幾乎沒(méi)聽(tīng)清我說(shuō)了什么。
［過(guò)關(guān)題］

A. nearly enough long B. nearly long enough
C. almost enough long D. enough long nearly
答案：B
3. 插入語(yǔ)的類(lèi)型
(1)單詞(多是副詞)
單詞作插入語(yǔ)時(shí)位置比較靈活，我們常見(jiàn)的多位于句末，也可位于句中或句首。常見(jiàn)的作插入語(yǔ)的單詞有：though(但是)，however，therefore，personally，luckily，fortunately，obviously(顯而易見(jiàn))等等。
e. g. I had thought I could not pass the exam. I passed, though.
我原以為我通過(guò)不了這次考試，但我還是通過(guò)了。
(2)短語(yǔ)
現(xiàn)在分詞短語(yǔ)，不定式短語(yǔ)，介詞短語(yǔ)都可以作插入語(yǔ)，它們?cè)诰渲衅鸬窖a(bǔ)充說(shuō)明的作用。常見(jiàn)的作插入語(yǔ)的短語(yǔ)有：for example，by the way, judging from(由……判斷)，generally speaking(一般說(shuō)來(lái))，to tell you the truth, to make things worse (=worse still)(更槽), on earth(究竟，到底), or rather(更確切地說(shuō))等等。
e. g. By the way, how can I find you? 順便問(wèn)一句，我如何找到你？
(3)句子
常見(jiàn)的作插入語(yǔ)的句子有：do you think, I believe, do you know, what’s more (而且)，let’s say(=say)(假定說(shuō)，譬如說(shuō))，that is to say (=that is=namely)(也就是說(shuō))等等。
e. g. He is an honest man, I believe. 我認(rèn)為，他是個(gè)誠(chéng)實(shí)的人。

課文背景閱讀
MODERN FARM LIFE
People in America live in many different kinds of geographical areas. Their way of life in rural areas is different from their way of life in the city. In ancient times most people lived in rural areas. These people lived on farms and in small agricultural communities. As more and more people came to America and the population grew, the cities grew. Today the majority of people live in urban communities. However, some people still live on farms and in small rural agricultural communities.
Life on the modern farm in America has changed over the last fifty years. Electricity is the cause for many changes in life on the farm. Also, the fact that many jobs on the farm that were formerly done by hand are now done by modern machines. This introduction of mechanical equipment helps the modern farmer to farm greater areas and harvest larger crops than ever before.
Some jobs on the farm have changed little over the years. Much farm work still consists of raising crops in large fields. Some of the grains raised in the United States are wheat, corn, oats and beans. Cotton, tobacco, peanuts and other crops are also grown in vast fields.
Another important area of farm work is raising animals. Beef cattle, pigs, and chickens are raised all over the country. Herds of milk cows are found throughout rural America also.
Daily life on the farm starts early in the morning. Before dawn the farmer can be found milking cows and feeding the animals. After the morning chores are over and breakfast has been eaten, the farmer works in the fields. In the evening the milking and feeding must be done again before the farmer ends the day.
Farm life has changed greatly in modern times. The farmer has become a businessman, a machinist, and one who is knowledgeable in many different sciences. Yet farm life is still made up of the care of animals and the planting and harvesting of crops. The modern farmer must work hard and plan carefully to be sure that the animals are in good health, and that the product of the farm is maintained.

Malls are popular places for Americans to go. Some people spend so much time at malls that they are called mall rats. Mall rats shop until they drop in the hundreds of stores under one roof.
People like malls for many reasons. They feel safe because malls have police stations or private security(安全)guards. Parking is usually free, and the weather inside is always fine. The newest malls have beautiful rest area with waterfalls and large green trees.

How to protect children Web fans from unsuitable material on-line while encouraging them to use the Internet has long been discussed in the U. S.
For some parents, the Internet can seem like a jungle, filled with danger for their children. But jungles contain wonders as well as hazards(危險(xiǎn))and with good guides, some education, and a few precautions(預(yù)防措施), the wilds of the Internet can be safely navigated(瀏覽). “Kids have to be on-line. If we tell our kids they can’t have access(機(jī)會(huì))to the Internet, we’re cutting them off from their future. ”said an expert.
Most kids have started to use search engines. Many of them are great for finding tons of interesting Internet sites, and they can also locate places where you might not want your kids to go. There are search engines designed just for kids. A certain software contains only sites that have been selected as safe. The most popular way to limit access would be to use what is known as a“content screener(過(guò)濾器)”. But this can’t be wholly reliable (可靠), and the best thing parents can do is to talk to their kids and let them know what is Ok or not OK to see or do on the Internet, Another way is that mum or dad is nearby when the child is surfing(瀏覽)the Internet.
A few other tips:
-Don’t put the PC in a child’s room but keep it in an area where mum or dad can keep an eye on things. That also makes the Internet more of a family activity.
-Ask your child what he or she has been doing and about any friends they make on-line.
-Tell your child not to give on-line strangers personal information, especially like address and phone number.
-And tell your children never to talk to anyone they meet on-line over the phone, send them anything, accept anything from them or agree to meet with them unless you go along.

Students Like Optional Course
This term our school has offered more than 10 optional courses, from which students can choose. The courses are given from 3: 30 to 5: 00 every Tuesday afternoon.
Students take great interest in the optional courses. Their favorites are computer, spoken English, arts and so on. They say they have learned a lot that is not taught in textbooks and they have got a great deal of practice. However, students are not quite satisfied. They hope more optional courses will be offered while their homework should be less. They suggest more trips and visits should be organized so that they can learn more about what is going on outside school.
