  11. Period 2

  12. 这帮家伙难道知道答案？ Pair Work Work with your partner and tell in your own words how the English names came into existence according to the text. Then compare the origins of English names with those of Chinese names.

  13. Englishsurnames developed in the late Middle Ages and, apart from patronymics（源于父名的姓和名字）(Adams, Jefferson, Jackson, Harrison), have a variety of origins; they come from places (Lincoln, Garfield, Cleveland), from trades (Tyler, Taylor), from personal traits（特性）(Stout, Black), and from the calendar (Noël, May). The Chinese have had surnames long before the period of the Three Emperors and Five Kings (三皇五帝). All members in a Chinese family have the same last name (surname, family name). Children all bear the same last name as their parents.

  14. All members in a Chinese family have the same last name (surname, family name). Children all bear the same last name as their parents. The list of “Hundred Names” was compiled many years ago by order of the Emperor as the 100 most popular surnames in China at the time. School children used to memorize them, or at least the first few names from the list.The top 8 Chinese last names are: Zhao Qian Sun Li, Zhou Wu Zheng Wang.

  15. Language Points • At Christmas time he did. 圣诞节时他有胡子。at Christmas time = at Christmas 在圣诞节期间 on Christmas Dayon Christmas Eve 在圣诞节 在圣诞前夕,在平安夜

  16. 2. People are always changing, a little or a lot.人们或多或少总是在改变的。Always在这里是”再三地,总是”的意思,常与进行时态连用,表示一种感情色彩.Example: They are always complaining. 他们总是抱怨个没完. (有批评意味)always的其他意思:1) 总是;每次都是;无例外地The sun always rises in the east.He’s not always at home in the evening.2) 永远;始终;一直She has always been easy to get along with.This is what I have always said and always shall say.3) 不论怎样总还……You can always sleep on the floor tonight.

  17. 3. But people’s names stay the same. 但是人们的名字不变。stay 联系动词,意思是”保持(某种状态)”,后跟adj.、n.和prep. phrase等作表语。Example: He stayed awake until the whole house is sleeping.The unemployment rate stayed below 5%.stay常作行为动词，意思是“停留；暂住” 。Please stay for supper.He stayed up until 12 o’clock.stay还可以作n.，表示“停止、终止、阻止”的意思。 The soldiers marched forward without stop or stay.We’ll make no stay in London.与stay相关的短语：stay ahead 领先；占上风 stay in 在家，未外出stay away 不在，离开 stay behind 依旧落在……后边stay on 继续停留/留下；保持 stay up 熬夜stay one’s hand （使某人）暂缓行动

  18. 4. Her name means that she is pretty and sweet like lily. “Catherine” comes from a word meaning “truthful”. 她的名字意思是她像百合花一样美丽、甜美。凯瑟琳这个名字来源于一个意思是“真诚”的词。 中文名 英文名 花语 百合 lily 纯净/神圣 水仙 daffodil 自尊/自恋 紫荆 redbud 故情/手足情 紫罗兰 violet 信任/爱的羁绊 玫瑰 rose 爱情/爱与美

  19. 5. Without a last name to go with your first name, how could people tell which Richard or which Lily you were? 只有名，没有姓，别人怎么能分出是哪个理查德或哪个丽莉呢？1) without a last name to go with your first name 是“without＋复合宾语”，用法与“with＋复合宾语”相同。Without a person to turn to for help, he had to go there alone.找不到可以帮忙的人，他只好独自前往。2) go with 与……相配搭I want to buy a skirt to go with this T-shirt.

  20. 6.

  23. 8. Sometimes in choosing a last name, a man would think about the kind of work he did. 有时候，一个人在挑选姓的时候会考虑到自己所做的工作。1）the kind of work he did 中he did是前面省略了that/which的定语从句，修饰 work。2）think about这里是“考虑，思考”的意思。9.Instead of iron, some smiths worked with gold or silver. 有些匠人不做铁匠活而做金子、银子活。work with sth. “从事……，做有关……方面的工作”。

  45. Find the ruleForm(s): Affirmative Negative

  46. Interrogative Usages 1. The future continuous tense is used to expressa continuous action in the future. • Examples:They are now studying. But they will be playing games at 4:30.When you arrive, they’ll still be cooking the meal. TIPS: Like other continuous tense, it is normally used with a point in time, and expresses an action which starts before that time and probably continues after it. It can also be used with a verb in a simple tense.

  47. 2) The future continuous tense is used to express future without intention Examples:a) I’ll be seeing Jane tomorrow.b) I’m seeing Jane tomorrow. TIPS: It is used to state that an action will happen in the normal course of events. It’s less definite and more casual than the present continuous. But often either tense can be used.
