Part Two Grammar Exercises

1. concrete nouns & abstract nouns

Concrete nouns are words we use for people, places, or things that we can observe with at least one of our five senses. The abstract class is the opposite — we can never experience these nouns according to our senses.

While this distinction is sometimes useful, the boundary between concrete and abstract is not always clear. Some nouns can be used as uncountable nouns when they refer to a thing in general and countable nouns when they refer to a particular instance of it, consider, for example, the noun art, which usually refers to a concept:

e. g. Art is an important element of human culture.

But it can refer to a specific artwork in certain contexts:

e.g. I put my daughter‘s art up on the fridge.

This is the problem of context within sentences.

I. Complete the following sentences with the appropriate forms of the nouns given.

1. agony.

2. agonies.

3. experience.

4. experiences.

5. youth.

6. a youth.

7. My children are __a great help__ to me. (great, help)

8. The boy had __a good knowledge__ of mathematics. (good, knowledge)

9. a gray hair

10. He is looking for __work__. (work)

II. 1 A; 2 B; 3 D; 4 C; 5 A; 6 B; 7 B; 8 C.

III. a lot of; a little; some; a few; A; some; some; a lot of; X.

many; X; a lot of.

2. quantifiers & determiners (every, each, everyone, every one, all)

Each and every have similar but not always identical meanings.

each = every one separately

every = each, all

Sometimes, each and every have the same meaning:

e. g. Prices go up each year.

Prices go up every year.

But often they are not exactly the same.

Each expresses the idea of ―one by one‖. It emphasizes individuality.

e. g. Each artist sees things differently.

Every is half-way between each and all. It sees things or people as singular, but in a group or in general.

e. g. Every soldier saluted as the President arrived.

Each can be used in front of the verb:

e. g. The soldiers each received a medal.

Each can be followed by ―of‖:

e. g. The President spoke to each of the soldiers.

Every cannot be used for two things while each can:

e. g. He was carrying a suitcase in each hand.

Every is used to say how often something happens:

e. g. There is a plane to Bangkok every day.

Everyone means ―everybody‖ and is used when you want to refer to all the people in a group:

e. g. Everyone in my family likes spaghetti.

But if you‘re referring to the individuals who make up a group, then the phrase is every one. ―Each and every one‖ you should never substitute everyone, for everyone as singular or plural: e.g. We wish each and every one of you a Merry Christmas.

All is more often used with plural verb forms, though sometimes it is used with singular verbs. However, if we wish to specify the things or people under discussion, we can use all or all of with nouns and pronouns and the correspondingly correct singular or plural verb forms.

e. g. Has all (of) the cake been eaten?

Have all (of) the presents been distributed?

All of us are going to Sam‘s party next week. We‘re all going.

IV. Complete the following with every, each, everyone, every one or all.

1. all; Every one; Every.

A: He had eaten _______ the biscuits.

B: What? _____________?

A: __________ single one.

2. The pavement on ________ side was crowded with neat smiling people. each;

3. Every;

4. each;

5. Everyone. The girl is very popular. ____________ likes her.

6. Each;

7. everyone; everyone; 8. Each.

3. dangling participles

Dangling participles is a participle that is not grammatically linked to the word it is intended to

modify. In ―Driving down the street, the house came into view,‖ ―driving‖ is a dangling participle. Though they are not rare in speech, dangling participles are avoided in formal writing because of the possibility of misunderstanding.

e. g. The burglar was about 30 years old, white, 5′10″, with wavy hair weighing about 150 pounds.

If properly installed, you shouldn‘t be able to open the door without first pressing the safety button.

V. Correct errors in the following sentences.

1. When planting these flowers, care must be taken not to damage the roots.

you must take care

2. Though received late at night, he started to work on the document immediately.

Though he received the document … work on it….

3. Falling … we thought…. ------ When he fell

4. Reading the letter a second time, the meaning becomes clearer.

When you read

5. what he meant became clear to me ------- I became clear about what he meant

6. Shining in the sky we saw the first star.

We saw the first star shining in the sky.

7. The teacher walked behind the kids eating their lunches.

who were eating

8. While cleaning his gun, it went off unexpectedly.

he was cleaning

2. Obviously…

Obviously, enlarging your vocabulary is essential.

3. neither…nor…

Neither poverty nor failure frustrated the industrious student.

VI Writing Practice

Paragraph development — the topic sentence

A topic sentence is a statement of the controlling idea that the rest of the paragraph clarifies, exemplifies, or supports. It is usually the most general statement of the paragraph but meanwhile specific enough so that it can be fully developed in a single paragraph. A good topic sentence promises what is to come.

A good topic sentence has three characteristics: it includes a topic and a controlling idea; it is limited; and it lends itself to development.

Exercise 1. Write a topic sentence to sum up the following details.

Set A

1. Denver, Colorado, is named for James Denver, a soldier and administrator of the Western frontier.

2. Mississippi‘s capital Jackson is named after the seventh President of the United States.

3. Cleveland, Ohio‘s largest city, gets its name from Moses Cleveland, a man who invested a lot of money in the area.

Topic sentence: Many American cities are named after important people who are or were locally or nationally famous.

Set B

Topic sentence: Happiness means different things to different people.

Exercise 2. For each of the following two paragraphs, the topic sentence has been taken out. Read them carefully and work out for each paragraph a topic sentence that you think can hold all the following details together.

A. The problem isn‘t that there‘s no interest in teaching. I constantly meet young people who‘ve graduated from colleges and have signed up for teaching in some of the coun try‘s toughest urban public schools. They are strongly interested in helping those so-called difficult kids. They find the work extraordinarily rewarding; the kids they teach benefit from their creativity and enthusiasm. But by the end of two years, most have either changed careers or moved to suburban schools — a consequence of low pay, a lack of support from the educational bureaucracy, and an overwhelming feeling of isolation, but never because of the lack of interest in teaching.

B. It means paying teac hers what they‘re worth. There‘s no reason why an experienced, highly qualified, and effective teacher shouldn‘t earn $100,000 annually at the peak of his or her career. Highly skilled teachers in such critical fields as math and science — as well as those willing to teach in the toughest urban schools — should be paid even more.

Part two Grammar Exercises

1. Negation and inversion

Inversion involves putting an auxiliary verb before the subject of a clause. In formal English, it is quite common to use inversion after negative adverbial expressions and restrictive words such as only, never, hardly, little and seldom.

e. g. At no time did he get permission for what he was doing.

Not until the next morning did she realize how serious it was.

Only later did they learn his terrible secret.

Hardly had we walked in the door when the phone started ringing.

In some negative sentences, ―not‖ is to negate the predicates in form, but actually it is used to negate other elements of those negative sentences. Therefore, while translating, we should transfer the negation in some cases.

e. g. Every man cannot be a scientist.

A high executive does not have a large vocabulary merely because of the opportunities of his position.

A negative may be transferred from a certain part of the sentence to another in translation.

e. g. We don‘t believe that our mother tongue is inferior to any other language in the world.

I don‘t think Father will fancy living an idle life like that.

I.

Change each sentence into a negative with the given word.

1. I hope it will rain. (not)

I hope it will not rain.

2. She has seldom been so successful before.

Seldom has she been so successful before.

3. You will find gold in Iceland. (nowhere)

Nowhere in Iceland will you find gold.

4. Donald had never imagined that this strange incident would help him to find a job.

Never had Donald imagined that this strange incident would help him to find a job.

5. He had scarcely any time to pack his suitcase.

6. In no circumstances must you tell him this secret.

7. We rarely get more than three consecutive days of hot weather in summer.

Rarely do we get more than three consecutive days of hot weather in summer.

6.能不做的事她决不会做。

7.我认为他没说真话。

8.玛丽只求安宁。

2. Unit noun

There are a number of nouns in English which can be used with mass nouns to indicate units that you can count after all. Some of the other unit nouns have more restricted collocations: they combine with certain nouns but not with others. Here are a few examples:

a slice of cake

a loaf of bread

a lump of sugar

a pinch or grain of salt

a stroke of luck

1. The teacher wrote the words with ___a piece of_____ chalk.

2. a lump of

3. There wasn‘t ___an ear of____ corn left in the vegetable garden.

4. a flash of

5. a head of

6. a blade of

7. a herd of

8. Tom found __a litter of__ five pups in the backyard.

3. as … as, as vs. like

―As … as‖ is used as comparative subordinating conjunctions to join two clauses.

e. g. The house was as large as two put together.

The coat of paint is not as fresh as it used to be.

―Like‖ (when used to mean ―similar to‖) is a preposition. ―As‖ (when used to mean ―in the same manner‖) is a conjunction. Prepositions govern nouns, pronouns, and words used as nouns. Conjunctions join clauses.

e. g. Do as I say!

He eats like a pig.

When used as a preposition, ―as‖ means ―in the position of, in the form of‖.

e. g. Dad dressed up as Santa Claus.

Insert as or like as appropriate in each sentence.

1. In 1939, ___as___ in 1941, there was a great surge of patriotic feeling.

2. as;

3. like;

4. like;

5. as;

6. like;

7. like;

8. like;

9. as; 10. as.

VI Writing Practice

Paragraph development — Illustration

Explanation and illustration are two of the most basic devices we employ to develop a paragraph based on a topic sentence.

Explanation, illustrative numbers, statistics, or examples used in a writing helps the writer:

·to explain the idea, concept, or term that is new to the general reader

·to put new meanings into a seemingly old concept

·to make his argument effective and convincing

·to help the readers understand what has led up to the current scene, situation, or result Exercises: Write two separate paragraphs respectively based on the following two topic sentences with explanation and illustrative examples.

1. Violence is destroying the sport of soccer in China.

Ideas for reference:

A football player‘s leg was broken by his rival.

Players attack each other.

Stars hurt people in pubs and on the street.

They promote the sales of newspapers but alienate people from the sport.

Sample:

Violence is destroying the sport of soccer in China. Just a few months ago, o ne of the country‘s top football clubs lost its best striker, a player from Honduras. He had been in only less than half a season in China before his left leg was so severely and ―skillfully‖ broken by his rival in an otherwise dull match that he was sent back to his own country to recover. Almost every other week, players are seen on live TV kicking, punching, or spitting on each other, or even worse, the referee. Off field, China‘s football players are also violently active. Now and then, stories of some star attacking people in pubs late at night, or on the street in broad daylight, make newspaper headlines. They promote the sales of newspapers but alienate more and more people from the sport. It has lost most of its audience. The number of TV viewers regularly watching live broadcasting of football matches has been decreasing. Sponsors are worried. They do not want to burn money for this bloody sport.

2. College students should have more (less) time of their own.

Ideas for reference:

a lot of assignments from different courses

desire to probe into territories outside majors

need to discover more about ourselves

want to go deep into the real world

Sample:

College students should have more time of their own. Last week, my Reading class teacher required us to read a 300-page novel; my Communicative English course teacher asked us to prepare a short play within three days; the professor who teaches us grammar told us that a test would be given on all the three new units of this semester; and, as the last straw, the composition teacher expressed his opinion that, in order to improve our writing skill, we should ―write something‖ every day and she expected us to complete a 200-word essay during the weekend. All these conscientious and responsible teachers seem to think that they are just helping us. Apparently it never occurs to them that we college students should have more time of our own to

do a lot of other things as well as school assignments. Yes, I am an English major, but that does not mean I have already made up my mind about my future career path. I want to have time to discover about other fields of knowledge. Likewise, students of other majors might also desire to probe into territories outside their own special branch of learning. And that takes time. In addition, we also need to discover more about ourselves: what we have a passion for, what we would really hate to do, where our strengths really lie, which section of the future job market would offer the best opportunities. Lastly, we need time to play, to make friends, to go deep into the real world outside our classrooms. If we are always buried in our teachers‘ assignments, we will lose so much and, in the end, lose ourselves.

How empathy unfolds 同感是怎样表露的 1 The moment Hope, just nine months old, saw another baby fall, tears welled up in her own eyes and she crawled off to be comforted by her mother, as though it were she who had been hurt. And 15-month-old Michael went to get his own teddy bear for his crying friend Paul; when Paul kept crying, Michael retrieved Paul's security blanket for him. Both these small acts of sympathy and caring were observed by mothers trained to record such incidents of empathy in action. The results of the study suggest that the roots of empathy can be traced to infancy. Virtually from the day they are born infants are upset when they hear another infant crying – a response some see as the earliest precursor of empathy. 霍普才九个月大,一见到另一个婴儿摔倒,泪水就涌了出来。她爬到妈妈身边寻求安慰,就好像是她自己摔疼了。15个月大的迈克尔把自己的玩具熊拿来给正在大哭的朋友保罗;保罗不停地大哭的时候,迈克尔替保罗捡回他的安乐毯。这些小小的表示同情和关爱的举动都是接受过记录同感行为训练的母亲们观察到的。这项研究的结果表明,同感的根源可以追溯到人的婴儿期。实际上,从出生的那天起,婴儿在听到其他婴儿哭闹的时候就会感到不安——有些人认为这种反应是同感的最初先兆。 2 Developmental psychologists have found that infants feel sympathetic distress even before they fully realize that they exist apart from other people. Even a few months after birth, infants react to a disturbance in those around them as though it were their own, crying when they see another child's tears. By one year or so, they start to realize the misery is not their own but someone else's, though they still seem confused over what to do about it. In research by Martin L. Hoffman at New York University, for example, a oneyear-old brought his own mother over to comfort a crying friend, ignoring the friend's mother, who was also in the room. This confusion is seen too when one-year-olds imitate the distress of someone else, possibly to better comprehend what they are feeling; for example, if another baby hurts her fingers, a one-year-old might put her own fingers in her mouth to see if she hurts, too. On seeing his mother cry, one baby wiped his own eyes, though they had no tears. 成长心理学家发现,甚至在充分意识到自己是独立于其他人而存在之前,婴儿就感受到了同情的苦恼。甚至在出生后几个月,婴儿就会对周围人的烦躁不安做出反应,就好像他们自己的烦躁不安一样,看到别的孩子哭也跟着哭。到了一岁左右,他们开始意识到痛苦不是他们的,而是别人的,可是他们对这样的事情似乎还是感到不知所措。例如,在纽约大学的马丁·L.霍夫曼所做的一项研究中,一个一岁的孩子把自己的妈妈拉过来安慰哭闹的朋友,却忽视了同在一室的朋友的妈妈。这样的困惑在其他一岁大的孩子身上也能看到,他们模仿别的孩子的痛苦,也许是为了更好地理解他们的感受。例如,如果别的婴儿伤了手指,一个一岁大的孩子就会把自己的手指放进嘴里,看看自己是否也感觉到痛。看到自己的妈妈哭,婴儿即使没有眼泪,也会擦拭自己的眼睛。 3 Such motor mimicry, as it is called, is the original technical sense of the word empathy as it was first used in the 1920s by E. B. Titchener, an American psychologist. Titchener's theory was that empathy stemmed from a sort of physical imitation of the distress of another, which then evokes the same feelings in oneself. He sought a word that would be distinct from sympathy, which can

Unit1 One way of summarizing the American position is to state that we value originality and independence more than the Chinese do. The contrast between our two cultures can also be seen in terms of the fears we both harbor. Chinese teachers are fearful that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired; there is, on the other hand, no comparable hurry to promote creativity. American educators fear that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge; on the other hand, skills can be picked up later. However, I do not want to overstate my case. There is enormous creativity to be found in Chinese scientific, technological and artistic innovations past and present. And there is a danger of exaggerating creative breakthroughs in the West. When any innovation is examined closely, its reliance on previous achievements is all too apparent (the "standing on the shoulders of giants" phenomenon). But assuming that the contrast I have developed is valid, and that the fostering of skills and creativity are both worthwhile goals, the important question becomes this: Can we gather, from the Chinese and American extremes, a superior way to approach education, perhaps striking a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills?

The contrast between our two cultures can also be seen in terms of the fears we both harbor. Chinese teachers are fearful that if skills are not acquired early, they may never be acquired; there is, on the other hand, no comparable hurry to promote creativity. American educators fear that unless creativity has been acquired early, it may never emerge; on the other hand, skills can be picked up later. However, I do not want to overstate my case. There is enormous creativity to be found in Chinese scientific, technological and artistic innovations past and present. And there is a danger of exaggerating creative breakthroughs in the West. When any innovation is examined closely, its reliance on previous achievements is all too apparent (the "standing on the shoulders of giants" phenomenon). But assuming that the contrast I have developed is valid, and that the fostering of skills and creativity are both worthwhile goals, the important question becomes this: Can we gather, from the Chinese and American extremes, a superior way to approach education, perhaps striking a better balance between the poles of creativity and basic skills?

Unit 1 Language in mission Text A An impressive English lesson Ex.1 Understanding the text 1、Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules. 2、The civilization of Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelous and remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account; however, what the student could do was only one single utterance :“whoa!”without any any specific comment. 3、Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency. They only teach a little grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger teachers themselves have little knowledge of the vital structures of language. 4、Because teaching grammar is not an easy job and most of the students will easily get bored if it’s not properly dealt with. 5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their specific grammatical functions including how to use adverbs to describe verbs. 6、Because the son had never heard about the various names and functions of words in an English sentence before. 7、The author uses “road map”and “car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here,“road map”is considered as grammar and “car”as vocabulary. 8、Since the subjunctive mood his son used is a fairly advanced grammar structure, the interjection“whoa!”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his son; it also reflects the author’s humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, though in two different situations and with two different feelings.
