Yet still gives itsall―everything that it can in search of a dream―God's ultimate plan.When there is a victory―when battles are won when burdens are lifted and bright shines the sun― when struggling souls gather―where heroes belong― they find in themselves―the heart of the strong. Carry On At times when you feel troubled when your happiness is gone look to the heart within you for the strength to carry on.In your heart you will find special virtues such as faith and hope and love. These gifts have been sent down to you from a power up above.It is faith that keeps the soul searching for the joy the heart hopes for. It is love that heals the spirit making it stronger than before.And if your heart be broken if your strength should fade away the power of these virtues will still win out the day.So remember when you are troubled when your happiness is gone look to the heart within you for the strength to carry on. ��Step 7 Homework 1.Retell Marty's Story according to the mini biography. 2.Surf the Internet to learn more about the life of disabled people.优品课件,意犹未尽,知识共享,共创未来!!!。

Period 2: Learning about Language(Revise the use of Infinitive)Teaching AimsTo discover and learn to use useful words and expressionsTo discover and learn to use useful structuresTeaching ProceduresStep I. Warming up by discovering useful words and expressionsStep II. Discovering useful words and expressionsDoing vocabulary exercisesTurn to pages 4-5 and do exercises 1, 2, 3 and 4.Step III. Reading and discovering useful structuresNow read the text again to find as many examples of the infinitive as you can.The infinitive can be used1. as the subject2. as the predicative,3. as the object4. as the object complement5. as the adverbial6. as the attributeThe following is the detailed explanation of the Infinitives:The InfinitivesI. Form:A: There are six forms of the infinitives:Active(to do)I want to do the work tonight. (to be done)The work is to be done tonight.Passive(to have done)Robert appears to have done the work. (to have been done)The project must have been done.Active(to be doing)Peter must be doing his work now.Passive(to have been doing)The boy is believed to have been doing the work for the whole day.B: The full infinitive consists of two words, to+ verb, as shown above. But after certain verbs andexpressions we use the form without to, i.e. the "bare infinitive". For example:You had better say nothing.C. It is normally advisable to put any words between to and the verb, but see split infinitive.D. To avoid repetition, an infinitive is sometimes represented by its To.For example:A: Do you smoke?B: No, but I used to (smoke).II. Uses of the infinitive:A. Used as subject:a. An infinitive or an infinitive phrase can be the subject of the verbs, e.g. appear, seem, be etc.1. To save money today seems impossible. OR It seems impossible to save money.(here "It" is used as an formal subject. i.e. not real subject)2. To lean out the windows is dangerous. OR It is dangerous to lean out of the windows.b. Usually infinitive constructions of this type consist of it+ be+ adjective (for sb)+ to do but sometimes a noun can be used instead of an adjective.e.g. It is difficult (for me) to learn English well./ It is a difficulty (for me) to learn English.c. cost/take + object can also be used.e.g. It cost me 200 dollars to buy these books that I liked most.It took the 200 worker to build the Grand Bridge.B. Used as object:Some verbs are followed by a to-infinitive but not -ing (eg. agree, aim, ask, appear, be determined, decline, demand, endeavor, fail, hesitate, hope, hurry, manage, offer, plan, proceed, prepare, pretend, promise, refuse, want, wish , etc.).Some verbs are followed by -ing but not a to- infinitive (eg admit, avoid, consider, delay, deny, detest, dread, envisage, feel like, finish, imagine, miss, recall, resent, risk, suggest).The verbs begin, cease, start and continue can be followed by either a to-infinitive or an ~ing form with little difference in meaning (eg Even though it was raining, they continued to play/ playing). Other verbs can be followed by either a to-infinitive or an -ing form, but there is a difference in meaning.GERUND INFINITIVEforget He'll never forget spending so much money on his first computer.Don't forget to spend money on the tickets.go on Go on reading the text.Go on to read the text.mean You have forgotten your homework again. That means phoning your mother.I meant to phone your mother, but my mobile didn't work.remember I remember switching off the lights when I went on holiday.Remember to switch off the lights when you go on holiday.stop Stop reading the text.Stop to read the text.try Why don't you try running after the dog?I tried to run after the dog, but IE.g. I regret to inform you that your application has been unsuccessful, to indicate that we are about to do something we are not happy about;It's too late now, but I'll always regret asking John to do the work. to say we have already done something that we are not happy about.We use the Gerund or the Infinitive after the following verbs. There are two possible structures after these verbs. Gerund: verb + -ing Infinitive: verb + person + to-infinitiveadviseThey advise walking to town.They advise us to walk to town.allowThey do not allow smoking here.They do not allow us to smoke here.encourageThey encourage doing the test.They encourage us to do the test.permitThey do not permit smoking here.They do not permit us to smoke here.We use the following structures with the word recommend:recommendThey recommend walking to town.They recommend that we walk to town.C. As complement of object:e.g. 1. He wanted me to water the flowers. (Here I would water the flowers)2. Janet expected me to give her a nice present.D. As attributive: normally after a noun.e.g. 1. I have a composition to write. (here to write consists of passive, but to be written would not be possible)2. John has got a letter to mail.E. As adverbial (means purpose after intransitive verb)e.g. 1. A: Why are you going there?B: To see my teacher.2. I came to the Tom's to get my book back.F. How / Wh - word to do:1. I showed him how to press the button.2. I asked myself where to go.3. He couldn't decide which (one) to choose.III. Tense & Passivea. present infinitive (meaning future or a plan)1. I decide to do it. = I say to myself, "I will do it." (future)2. I am to travel around the world. (a plan)b. present continuous tense.1. We pretended to be reading our books when the teacher came in.2. He seemed to be cooking dinner at five yesterday evening.c. perfect infinitive.1. He seemed to have finished cooking his dinner by seven yesterday.2. Jane is sorry to have kept Jim waiting so long.d. perfect continuous tense.1. He pretended to have been working on the problems for hours.2. They appeared to have been training themselves for an hour.e. present infinitive passive1. The bridge to be built here will be the grandest one in the world.2. The film to be seen by Tom is a great one.f. perfect infinitive passive1. The flowers seemed to have been watered by seven yesterday.2. The mistakes to have been made twice is annoying.IV. Bare InfinitiveAfter modal verbs or some phrase that is considered as a modal verb, also in these structures:see/watch/feel/make/hear/have/notice somebody do (to is omitted).I saw Jim enter the classroom at five yesterday.I will have an electrician fix the light.You had better see a doctor.But in the passive voice to won't allowed to be omitted,ie. I was seen to enter the house.I was made to work 12 hours a day.Using structuresDeal with Exercises on Page49.Do Ex2 first and then do Ex3.Ask students to do Ex1 in their exercise-books after class.Step V. HomeworkGo over words and expressions.Go over the grammar.Finish Ex1 on Page 49.Step IV. Closing downTo end the period you are to do grammar Ex.1 & 2 on page 5.Deal with Ex1&Ex2 in the Discovering useful words and expressions. During this procedure students are asked to use an English-English dictionary. Because a good learner has English-English dictionary gives example sentences to show how a word is used, and most also explain rules for using the words as well as giving the meaning.T: Good.
