教学提示 备课内容（教学设计、知识点、课堂组织、教学方法等） Unit Five: Talking About the Weather (2) (Note:★----focal point, ※----difficult point) Ⅰ. Warm-up Questions 1. What’s the weather like today? 2. Do you know the difference between Celsius and Fahrenheit? Something about Celsius and Fahrenheit: In weather forecasts we usually use two different measurements of temperature to describe the weather. One is Celsius (℃) and the other is Fahrenheit (℉). 0℃ equals 32℉ and l00℃ equals 2l2℉. Western people are more familiar with Fahrenheit measurement. Ⅱ. Text-related Information 1. Weather Forecasts and Weather Reports Information about the weather that’s likely to come is called a weather forecast, though it’s often included with information about recent weather in a weather report. As you could expect, there are regular local and national weather reports on television and radio during the day and in the evening, and in local and national newspapers too. You can also get weather reports by phone. (Dial 121 in China.) Even if you don’t understand everything, reading or listening to weather reports will always give you some idea of what the weather’s going to be like. 2. The Celsius System and the Fahrenheit System There are two different systems of temperatures that are used in weather forecasts. There is the Celsius system (°C), which is the one used in most countries. Another name for this system is centigrade. In Western countries the Fahrenheit system (°F) is also used. 0 °C equals 32 °F and 100 °C equals 212 °F. The Celsius system is always used in weather forecasting, but because many Westerners are more familiar with Fahrenheit, temperatures are very often given in both ways. And please note temperatures are always given in degrees (plural form). For example, 0 degrees. 3. Some Terms in Weather Reports Describing the weather (nouns): sunshine, haze, drizzle, shower, downpour, storm, thunder, lightning, thunderstorm, breeze, gust of wind, gale, hurricane, fog, mist, frost, hail, dew, ice, snow, sleet, slush, snowstorm, blizzard, snowdrift Describing the weather (adjectives): bright, fine, fair, cloudy, overcast, dull, rainy, hot, warm, mild, cool, chilly, freezing, calm, windy, strong, dry, damp, humid, wet, stuffy, close

4. Don’t complain when the weather forecast is not accurate enough. Meteorology is a science of educated guessing, which means that one cannot tell for certain what weather conditions will be like, so the notions of expectation and prediction should always be kept in mind. Ⅲ. Questions for Group Discussion Para.1: Which city’s weather condition is mentioned in the first paragraph? Para. 2: What’s the weather going to be like tomorrow in Chicago? Para. 3: What’s the weather conditiPara. 6: Which city is a good place for you to enjoy a sunny weekend? in Los Angeles? Para. 4: How is the weather expected to be on the weekend in Colorado? Para. 4: How is the weather expected to be on the weekend in Colorado? Para. 6: Which city is a good place for you to enjoy a sunny weekend?

(Para. 2) The predicted high for tomorrow is forty-five degrees Fahrenheit, and the temperature is expected to dip to the freezing point tomorrow night with thirty-two degrees. As the weather information is given as an expected message, passive voice is a commonly-used structure of a weather forecast . 预计明天最高温度华氏45度，明天晚上温度会降至冰点，华氏32度。 3. (Para. 3) Showers expected tomorrow down the West Coast as far south as San Francisco. Fair weather in the low seventies predicted for the Los Angeles area; fair in San Diego. Another frequently used structure in a weather forecast is omission. Both expected and predicted are used in passive voice, but are and is. Are omitted respectively. The full sentence should be “it will be fair in San Diego.” 预计明天沿西南海岸向西海岸直至旧金山有阵雨；洛杉矶地区，天气晴好，气温70多华氏度； 圣地亚哥，晴。 4. (Para. 4) There is a cold front from Canada moving down through the western states. “There be+ n.+ participle phrase” structure is often used in a weather forecast. Here in this case, the present participle phrase moving down… is the post modifier of a cold from. 来自加拿大的冷锋下行经过西部各州。 There are some students coming from the south. 9

教学提示 备课内容（教学设计、知识点、课堂组织、教学方法等） Unit Five: Talking About the Weather (4) (Note: ★----focal point, ※----difficult point) Ⅰ. Sample analysis A weather report or forecast is a very useful aid in our daily life. Applied writing: Weather report Knowing the usual format for giving a weather forecast helps us a lot in understanding a weather forecast in English. (P’62, 70) Figures, measurement units, graphics, weather terms, and broken short passages are often used to forecast weather conditions. In general, the language used to forecast weather should be concise, clear, familiar and vivid. Sentences used to describe weather: 1. Tomorrow is going to be fair. 2. It’s foggy in the morning and it’ll be clear and fine this afternoon. 3. Tomorrow will be overcast with drizzle. 4. It is expected to be partly cloudy in the next two days. 5. Tomorrow we can expect cloudy, windy and cold weather. 6. The wind will be light with little change of the temperature. Sentence writing: Ⅱ. Sample analysis Simple past and The simple past tense is used to prefer to a past action that does not present perfect continue, while the present perfect tense is used to show actions which （P’72） started in the past and are still continuing, or actions which happened in the past, but have an effect till the present. Ⅲ. Assignments 1. Recite the first and the last paragraphs of Passage II. 2. Read and learn by heart the new words in Unit 6. 3. Prepare the speaking activities in Section I of Unit 6.
