Unit 2 the Olympic GamesPeriod 2: A lesson plan for Learning about Language(The Future Passive Voice)Aims:To learn about future passive voiceTo discover useful words and expressionsTo learn the methods of words formationProceduresI. Warming upWarming up by dictatingThere are several important sentences in this unit. Let’s dictate them. If you can’t, learn them by heart after class.①When and where will the next Olympic Games be held?②I live in what you call “Ancient Greece” and / used to write aboutthe Olympic Games more than 2000 years ago.③All countries can take part if they reach the standard to be admittedto the games.④The next Olympic Games will be held in my hometown.⑤It is just as much a competition among countries to host the Olympicsas to win an Olympic medal.Warming up by discovering useful words and expressionsTurn to page 11 and do exercises 1, 2, 3 and 5 first. Check your answers against your classmates’.II. Learning about word formation1. Do exercise 4 and discover the rules.Turn to page 12 and find out the rules of word formation.By adding -ing to a verb, we can change the verb into a noun.That means we can change “doing some sport” into “the name of the sport”. By adding -er to a verb, we can change the verb into a noun. That means we can change “doing some sport” into “the person who does the sport”.2. Means of word-formation in generalAffixation, conversion, and composition (or compounding) are the chief means of word-formation in English. Besides these, there are also other minor ways of word-formation including clipping, acronymy, blending etc.III. Learning about Present Future Passive VoiceTurn to page 13 and do exercise 3. And tell the class the formation of present future passive voice.Ⅳ Closing down by summarizing1.Present future passive voice (take “ask” for example)2.The passive Voice of phrasal verbGenerally speaking, only transitive verbs can form the passive voice, for only transitive verbs can be followed by objects. But many intransitive verbs together with some prepositions and adverbs can be used as transitive verbs. So they can also be followed by the objects. Therefore they can also be used in passive voice. But note that all the phrasal verbs are used as a whole. When using them in passivevoice, we cannot drop out the prepositions and adverbs. For examples:At last they put out the fire. At last the fire was put out.They will put up a notice on the wall. A notice will be put up on the wall. Have you sent for a doctor? Has the doctor been sent for?I have never heard of such a thing before. Such a thing has never been heard of before.We must take good care of the children here. The children must be taken good care of here.His classmates laughed at him for the foolish mistake. He was laughed at for the foolish mistake by his classmates.。
