（牛津版）初三英语同步辅导（含同步练习）Unit 2 Colour（1）

一.教学内容：
Main task:
Writing a report on the moods of people. Describe the moods of people by looking at the colours they choose to wear.
Tasks:
1. Use ‘would rather… than…’to express preferences.
2. Use ‘prefer … to…’ to express preferences.

二. 重点、难点：
Comic Strips
1. I’d rather wear blue than pink. 我宁愿穿蓝色也不愿穿粉红色。
would rather… than… 表示“宁愿…而不愿…”，“更愿意…”；rather后跟动词原形。
e.g. I’d rather play tennis than swim.
He’d rather stay at home than go out on such a rainy day.
2. There’s nothing wrong with pink, you know. 你是知道的，粉红色本身没有错。
nothing 是不定代词，它通常放在所修饰的形容词之前。类似的不定代词还有something/somebody; anything/anybody; nobody/nothing/no one 等。
There is nothing/ something wrong with sb./ sth. 表示某人/某个东西没出/出了毛病。
e.g. There is something wrong with my watch It doesn’t work.
以上句子也可以用以下方式表示：
Nothing is wrong with pink.
3. But blue looks good on you. 但蓝色穿在你身上看上去很好看。
look good 看上去好看的， on you 表示“穿在你身上” 的意思。
Reading
1. Do you know anything interesting about colours? 你知道关于颜色的一些有趣的事情吗？
anything interesting 一些有趣的事情, anything 是不定代词，形容词interesting要放在它的后面。
2. Colours can change our moods and make us feel happy or sad, energetic or sleepy.
颜色会改变我们的情绪，让我们感到高兴或悲伤，充满活力或昏昏欲睡。
make sb. do sth. “使得某人做某事”，后接宾语和宾语补足语。
e.g. The news made her very sad.
3. Wearing blue clothes or sleeping in a blue room is good for the mind and body because this colour creates the feeling of harmony. 穿蓝色的衣服或睡在一间蓝色的房间里对我们的身体和头脑都有好处，因为这个颜色创造出和谐的感觉。
be good for … “对…有利”
e.g. Taking a walk after supper is good for our health.
它的反义词是 be bad for
wearing是wear的动名词形式，因为它在句中做主语，所以要加ing
e.g. Reading in bed is bad for your eyes.
4. I am feeling blue. 我感到伤心。
英语中一些表示颜色的词常常会有另外的喻义。
e.g. a green hand 生手
He is yellow. 他懦弱。
a white lie 一个善意的谎言
5. People who live in cold climates prefer to use warm colours to give their homes a warm and comfortable feel. 生活在寒冷气候下的人们更愿意使用暖色给他们的家带来温暖、舒适的感觉。
prefer “更喜欢”，后可跟名词、代词，也可跟动词不定式或动名词。
e.g. He prefers coffee.
I prefer to live in a city.= I prefer living in a city.
表示“与…相比更喜欢…”用prefer…to…
e.g. He prefers football/playing football to basketball/playing basketball.
6. Orange can bring you success and cheer you up when you are feeling sad.橘黄色能给你带来成功，并且当你伤心的时候能使你振作起来。
7. Yellow is the colour of sun, so it can remind you of a warm, sunny day.黄色是太阳的颜色，所以它能使你想起温暖、晴朗的日子。
remind sb of sth/ sb. “使某人想起某事/某人”
e.g. He reminds me of my brother.
8. Wearing red makes it easier for you to take actions. 穿红色衣服帮助你更容易采取行动。
9. This can help when you are having difficulty making a decision. 当你难以作出决定的时候，它会帮助你。
make a decision “做决定”
have difficulty doing sth. “做某事有困难”
e.g. They had some difficulties getting on the bus yesterday.
Grammar (A) (B)
A would rather… than…
We can express preferences using ‘would rather… than…’.
我们用would rather… than 来表达“宁愿…而不愿…”，“更愿意 …”这个意思。
e.g. I would rather wear trousers than a skirt. 我宁愿穿裤子而不愿穿裙子。
She’d rather have Western food than Chinese food.
注意：（1）rather后要跟动词原型。
（2）当我们只想表达“想做某事时”，我们可以只用would rather，而不带than.
e.g. I would rather stay at home.
B prefer…to…
We can also express preferences using ‘prefer… to’.
我们也可以用prefer… to…来表达“宁愿要；更喜欢”, 后可跟名词、代词，也可跟动词不定式或动名词。
e.g. Which do you prefer, milk or tea?
My mother prefers to live in the countryside.
She preferred him to stay at home all day.
当你想表达喜欢一件东西，而不喜欢另一件东西时，可用prefer …to…来表示。
e.g. I prefer walking to jogging.
Daniel prefers classic music to pop music.
prefer to do sth. rather than do sth. 表示“宁愿做…而不愿做…”
e.g. I prefer to study at night rather than watch TV.

Language points:
Where do you want to go for lunch? 你想去哪里吃午餐？
for 在这里的意思是“为，为了”
e.g. They have gone for a skiing.
