高中英语Unit 1 课文重难点解析新人教版选修8Unit 1 课文重难点解析选修8Unit 1 课文重难点解析在新人教版选修8的第一单元中，有一篇名为《Health》的课文，本文将对该课文进行重难点解析。
本单元的课文以“健康”为主题，主要围绕人们如何保持健康展开论述。
下面将从课文的结构、语法、词汇、阅读理解和写作技巧等方面进行解析。
一、课文结构《Health》这篇文章共分为三个部分，分别是“Warming up”、“Reading”和“Language points”。
每个部分都有不同的设计和重点。
其中，“Warming up”部分通过与学生的互动帮助学生进入主题，并激发对健康话题的兴趣。
而“Reading”部分则是通过一篇关于健康的文章，让学生了解更多有关保持健康的知识。
最后的“Language points”部分对语法、词汇和阅读理解中出现的难点进行了总结和阐述。
这种结构使得学生可以在不同层面上掌握相关知识。
二、语法解析在这篇课文中，存在一些语法知识点，让我们一起来进行解析。
1.名词的复数形式在课文中有一句“Not only is it imp ortant to keep a healthy mind, but itis also important to keep healthy bodies.”，这里的“bodies”是“body”的复数形式，表示多个身体。
这提醒我们英语中的名词有单数和复数之分，需要根据具体情况使用正确的形式。
2.动词的时态在课文中有一句“Exercise helps to keep the heart healthy and prevents heart disease.”中的“helps”和“prevents”都是动词的第三人称单数形式，表示一般现在时。
这表明英语动词根据主语的不同需使用相应的时态形式。
3.形容词的比较级和最高级形式在课文中有一句“Exercise and a balanced diet are important, but sleeping well is even more important.”这里的“more important”和“even more important”表示比较级和最高级形式，用于进行比较。
