高一英语下册第三单元教案2
The grammar items in this unit deal with object complements, either ... or ... and neither... nor ..., and subject-verb agreement. We’ll learn what an object complement is, the basic pattern in which it always occurs and what can be used as an object complement. As for the phrases either ...or... and neither ... nor ..., you are expected to use either ... or ... as one of the
sentence elements to express the idea of alternatives, and neither ... nor ... to join two
negative ideas together. Subject-verb
agreement explains some rules of using correct
singular or plural verbs after the subject.
Step 1: Object Complement
1. Let’s read Parts 1-5 on page 48. Try to understand each point and read the information in the tip box.
1) The object complement gives more information about the object.
They called the young man Great Hero .
object object complement
2) An object complement always occurs in this pattern: verb + object + object complement. The object complement can often be a noun
phrase or an adjective.
e.g. They made Wu Tong
monitor of their class.
You must keep the room clean all the time.
3) Sometimes a to-infinitive or bare infinitive can be an object complement.
e.g. I’d like all of you to work still harder.
Will you let us play ball games after we finish our exercises?
4) An object complement can be a prepositional phrase.
e.g. If you keep the new dress in hot water, the colors will run.
5) An object complement can also be a present participle
phrase or a past participle phrase.
e.g. The most exciting thing for the old man was to watch the children playing in the garden.
They told me to have my car repaired as soon as possible.
6) An object complement usually agrees with the object in number.
After that people called the boy a little hero.
2. Please go through Lost civilizations again and find as many sentences with an object complement as you can.
For example,
Sven found the remains of buildings buried under the sand, together with a lot of treasures, such as coins, painted pots, silk materials, documents and wall paintings.
(remains of buildings is the object, and buried under the sand is the object complement, which gives information about the situation of the object.)
We found the ruins most interesting.
(the ruins is the object, and interesting is the object complement, which gives information about the object.)
3. Now let’s read the next excerpt from Ann's diary entry on page 48 and use proper object complements to complete it. Try to understand what these phrases in the box mean.
4. Please do C1 on page 108 in your Workbook to
practise what you have
learnt in this part.
Step 2: Either ... or ... and neither ... nor ...
Here we will learn how to use either ...or ... and neither …nor ... And we will
practise using the two phrases in an exercise.
1) Suppose we have one ticket for the concert on Sunday; both my friends, David and Helen, want to go. So, either David or Helen can have the ticket. They quarrelled with each other over the ticket. Finally, I
decided that neither David nor Helen should have the ticket. We will all stay at home on Sunday and watch the concert on TV instead.
(either ... or ... is used to express the idea of alternatives; neither ... nor ... can be used to join two
negative ideas together, the opposite of which is both ... and ...)
2) Let’s go over Part 1 on page 49. First read the sentences carefully and pay attention to the
function of either ... or ... You’ve got to understand the instructions and sentences in this part and pay attention that either ... or... can connect the
coordinate subject, verb, object and adverbial in sentences.
3) Let’s read the sentences in Part 2 on page 49 carefully and point out the
sentence element of neither ... nor ... in each sentence.
4) Read the example and the exercise on page 49 carefully.
