教學建議

課文建議
建議教師在上些課時，可采用以下方法，比如：1）教師可給學生展示奧運會圖片，供學生講述。2）教師利用多媒體形式，如：錄像、VCD在課堂上給學生放映等，可提高學生的興趣與積極性。3）教師可用一些課文中出現(xiàn)的數(shù)字、時間進行組織教學，用一些詞連接起來，組成一篇文章，如：776BC，The old Olympic Games began around the year 776 BC in Greece. At that time the young men competed in running, jumping and wrestling., so on.

課文分析
本單元主要用英語描述奧林運會的歷史、發(fā)展、過去與現(xiàn)狀，詳細列舉出在1984、1992年奧林匹克運動的擴大、中國運動員所參加的一些項目和在奧運會中取得的優(yōu)異成績等，課文中最大的特點是采用大量的數(shù)字與年代，如：393AD，8,000,25th等。同時在語言運用中使用prep .+which / whom+ clause，如：Some of the games in which the young men competed….so on.

The same as, the same that的辨析
1) the same …as有兩個含義：“和……一樣”，“像……那樣”。比如：
She is wearing the same dress as she wore yesterday. 這句話有兩個含義：
她穿著昨天穿的那件衣服。（就是同一件）
她穿的衣服像她昨天穿的那件。（即只是像，但不是同一件）
2）the same…that為“和……一樣的”。比如：
She is wearing the same dress that she wore yesterday.她穿著昨天穿的那件衣服。即只等于the same …as的第一個含義。
3）若要表示“同一個”時，關(guān)系代詞可用as,也可用that.若要表示“不是同一個”時，關(guān)系代詞只用as。
4)如果后面的從句不完整，從句謂語動詞省略了，就只能用as,不用that。
