二. Questions before reading. （热身练习）
在我们阅读文章之前，课本中提出了几个问题，我们要唤起自己的背景知识，回答这些问题，这样也可
以帮助我们对文章更好的理解。To answer these questions , we should use our background knowledge .
Also , it can help us get a better understanding of the text.
For example , “How long has that model been around ? ”
be around 意思是“在某领域或行业中，活跃而突出”。因此，这句话我们可以译成“这一款手机已经
流行（或面市）了多久？”
You can answer like that “It has been around for about half a year. ” 又如“What special things can it do ? ”他有什么特别的用途？现在的手机用途可谓多种多样，无所不能，所以也可以这样回答。
It can sing the songs , play cool tunes , send fast messages , surf the Internet , take photos , use as a recorder , and so on.

分的头脑、思维上的准备，
提高学习效果。所以我们不应忽视。
三. Summarizing each paragraph. （总结每段的大意）
快速阅读文章，总结每段的大意，能够帮助我们的分析理解能力和归纳能力。正确的用自己的语言来概
括每段的主要当我们去饭店的路上的时候，我的手机响了。
while引导了一个时间状语从句。while后面一般加一个时间段，既该动作或状态必须应持续一段时间。
如we were on our way to the restaurant , “我们去饭店的路上”这一状况不可能瞬间发生就结束的，
全国服务热线：400-618-2005
态的句子。如：
Somebody knocked at the door while we were having supper.
当我们正在吃晚饭的时候，有人敲门。
2. What phone you have says a lot about you to some people these days. 现在，
你拥有什么样的手机会向别人透露许多你的信息。句中What phone you have 是主语从句，意思是你拥有什么样的手机又如：What you said made me terrified.
你说的话使我感到恐惧。
3.
times : 指时代、时势、境况，the times 指当代
eg. What wonderful times we live in ! 我们生活在多么了不起的时代啊！in ancient times 在古代
4. I was glad to be like my friends who all had mobile phones. 我非常高兴能像我那些有手机的朋友们一样。

又如look like 看起来像

全国服务热线：400-618-2005
意思是“我的那些有手机的朋友们。”
5. I often think my old phone will make people laugh.
我经常认为我的老手机会惹人笑话。
make people laugh 使人发笑
make 是使役动词，我们经常用make sb do sth . 使某人做某事
请注意make 后面直接加动词原形，而不能加不定式to .
又如：If you have the latest model , it can make you look good in front of your friends.
如果你有最新款的手机，它可以使你在朋友面前很有面子。
“make you look good”使你看起来很有面子。
类似的使役动词还有have , let 。
eg. The teacher had some students stay in the classroom after school. 放学后老师让一些学生仍留在教室里。
If you have a new idea , please let me know.
如果你有了新主意，请让我知道。

even know how to anyway ?
当我不可能使用新手机的每一项功能，甚至我也不知道怎么（使用）的时候，我
为什么要花钱买个新手

全国服务热线：400-618-2005
了两个并列的时间状语从
句，中间用and连接。
7. Giving it up would be like saying goodbye to an old friend just because he or she doesn’
t fit in with my new , fashionable friends.
放弃（我的旧手机）就象是跟我的老朋友说再见，仅仅是因为他或她和我的新朋友，时髦的朋友不相衬
了一样。
在这一句中，giving it up 是动名词短语做主语。
fit in （with sb）意思是与…相处融洽，与…相配
本句比较复杂，要求能读懂大意即可。
五. Culture Note （文化背景）
For many people , having a mobile phone is a status symbol . They like to show others that
they have one and use it often . But mobile phones can be very annoying for other people in
many situations . When you are with someone else in a social or business context , you should
not answer the phone unless you are expecting an important call . Otherwise , you are saying
that the person you are with is not as important as other people.
对于许多人来讲，拥有手机是身份的象征。他们乐于在人前，展示并经常使用它。但有一些场合，手机
会使其他人感到心烦。当你在公众场合或商业场合中，与其他人在一起时，不应该接电话，除非你是在等一

全国服务热线：400-618-2005
9. stand for 代表代替
10. face to face 面对面
11. such as 例如
二. Warming - up （热身练习）
E-mail English ，这篇文章相当富有时代感，因为e-mail英语是近年来随着因特网的飞速传播而迅速
发展起来的新兴变化。事实上就是使用首字母组合词，或同音异义词及一些象形符号等使得语言的键盘输入
更加迅速，看起来，有时会一头雾水，读起来，渐渐体会个中滋味。请看下面的例子：
BTW by the way
F2F →Face to face
OIC→Oh , I see !
CU→See you .
How Ru→How are you !
GR 8 →Great !
试着翻译下面这两个句子：（请译成正常的规范的英文）
1. Hi , how RU ? Let’s meet 4 dinner and then C a movie 2night .
2. Good idea . BTW , I’m at school until 5 : 30 Cu ! :-）
译文：
1. Hi , how are you ? Let’s meet for dinner and then see a movie tonight.
2. Good idea , By the way . I’m at school until 5:30 . See you ! （Happy face）
全国服务热线：400-618-2005
因为它看起来怪里怪气，不
熟悉的人根本看不明白。做为教师们来说，多数老师都认为学生应该掌握规范的英语才好，但是我们不妨了
解e-mail English 的一些简单规律，也做为我们增长见识的一个方面。
三. Main ideas of each paragraph. （段落大意）
Paragraph 1 : Where e-mail English comes from.
Paragraph 2 : How new e-mail words are made.
Paragraph 3 : E-mail words that save space.
Paragraph 4 : Using sounds in new e-mail words.
Paragraph 5 : Using faces in e-mail English
3. Paragraph 6 : Teachers and e-mail English .
四. Key Points （重点分析）
1. E-mail English is a new kind of English that many people use to save time . E-mail 英语是
一种新兴的，许多人用来节省时间的英语。
that many people use to save time 是定语从句，用来修饰先行词，new kind of English .
注意use to 和used to 的区别
二者后面都加动词原形，但意义大不相同。
全国服务热线：400-618-2005
save time 节省时间save space 节省空间
save money 则是攒钱的意思
2. The first kind is made up of the first letters of other words. These are called acronyms.
第一种是由单词的首字母组合而成，被称为首字母组合词。在这两个句子中，is made up of , are
called 都涉及到了一个重要的语法现象，被动语态结构：“be +动词的过去分词” 在英语中，有主动和被动两种语态。主动语态表示主语是动作的执行者，被动语态表示主语是动作的承
受者。
如：
试对比：
He wrote the letter . 他写了信（写信的动作是由主语他发出的）为主动语态。The letter was written by him. 那封信是他写的。
（主语“信”是动作的承受者，是被动语态。）
eg. 1. These are called acronyms. 这些被称做首字母组合词。eg2. His bike has been stolen. 他的自行车被人偷走了。
关于被动语态的详细内容将在第三单元讲解。
全国服务热线：400-618-2005
乎全部、大多）
eg. I spend my free time mostly watching TV . 我闲暇时大多在看电视。eg. There are only 7 girls in our PE class , so the class is mostly boys.
在我们体育班仅有7个女孩，因此这个班大多数是男生。
4. Other acronyms are F2F which stands for face to face , CSL for can’t stop laughing and
… , 其他的首字母缩写词有F2F 代表face to face. CSL代表can’t stop laughing 以及…。
which 引导了定语从句修饰先行词F2F.
stand for 表示…代表… 为…的缩写
eg. U.S.A stands for United States of America.
5. look like 看起来像
sound like 听起来像
6. For example , 8 sounds like -eat in great , so to save time , people write gr8.
比如，8听起来像great 中eat [eit]的发音，因此为了节省时间，人们就写成了gr8［来代表great］。
to save time 为了节省时间，动词不定式做目的状语。
7. Other punctuation marks , such as commas , help add other parts of the face and indicate
different expressions.
全国服务热线：400-618-2005
的表情。
such as 比如说，例如。
8. Your best friend will probably understand it ,but your parents and teachers might not.
你最好的朋友可能会明白（短信的这不仅仅是因为他们不明白（短信）的含义。
what it means 是宾语从句，做动词comprehend 的宾语。
意思是“短信的意思是什么”。
五. Culture Note（文化背景）
What’s the difference between an e-mail and a letter ? E-mails are a fast and easy way of
contacting friends , family and business associates , but fast is not always best . For formal
situations , such as notices about births , deaths and marriages , it’s still preferable to send e-mail . In business , it’s best to reply in the way you have been contacted ; if you
have been sent a letter , sent a letter back . Also , be careful what you write in an e-mail .
Often people do not check , their ideas , spelling and grammar and may look foolish to whoever
reads the message.
全国服务热线：400-618-2005
方便又快捷的方式，但是快
并不一定就是最好的。在一些重要正式的场合，比如说出生通知，死亡、婚礼的消息，仍然可以用电子邮件
来传递。在商业往来中，最好的答复方式就是你一直用的方式。如果你收到了一封信，就可以发一封信做为
回复。而且，你写电子邮件的时候也要小心仔细。人们通常不检查他们的大意、拼写和语法，结果别人读起
来则觉得乱七八糟的。

四. 阅读理解：
A: Cats Have Nine Lives
There is a saying that cats have nine lives . A recent study examined why . Scientists carried out a study of cats which had fallen out of windows of buildings . Nine out of ten
remained alive after a fall of two storeys or more . One cat which fell from the 32nd floor of
a building only broke a tooth . Interestingly , the cats were in greatest danger of being killed if they fell from the seventh floor . Falling from either a lesser or greater height gave them a better chance of survival （生存）.
Damage （损伤）to a body depends on how fast it hits the ground , which in turn depends on
how far it has fallen . But it’s not quite that simple because , as an object falls through the air , the air holds it back and slows the object down . After a while the object stops accelerating （加速）and continues at a fixed speed . This is the terminal （临界）speed .
Bulky （庞大的）things have a lower terminal speed because there is a larger area for the air
to push up on . Heavy things have a higher terminal speed because they push down
harder
against the air . Cats have a lower terminal speed than falling people , for example , because
全国服务热线：400-618-2005
slowly and are less
likely to be hurt.
Then what does the seventh floor matter ? This is the distance cats take to reach their terminal speed . After the seventh floor , they may relax and spread out their legs like a
flying squirrel and change their falling position so that they may land on their feet . This
would slow them down and allow their muscles to reduce the force of impact （冲击），and thus
reduce the damage.
1. The scientists came to a conclusion that a fall from the _____ floor was most likely to
kill a cat.
A. sixth
C. 33rd B. eighth

2. A falling cat has a lower terminal speed than a falling man because it is _____.
A. bigger but heavier
B. bigger and stronger
C. lighter but relatively bigger

3. A fall from higher than a seventh floor allows the falling cat _____.
A. to have time to reduce its falling speed
B. to relax and spread out its legs and to land on a safer position
C. to reach the ground softly on its back
全国服务热线：400-618-2005
4. Which of the following pictures best shows the usual sight of a cat falling from the eighth floor shortly before it hits the ground ?

fire . As for Dog ,
Man told him he would have to sleep out of doors . That is why dogs often sleep outside , but

运的）Mouse （老鼠）was just about to be eaten by Cat . Mouse was quite minded . He said to
Cat. “Don’t you have any manners at all ? Everyone knows you should wash your hands and face
before you eat. ”The cat was ashamed （害羞）at this and began to wash . While Cat was
