第四十八課 以 tive和 ity 結(jié)尾的詞匯
一.本課要點及示例
在這一課里, 我們學(xué)習(xí)一些以 i-v-e 結(jié)尾的形容詞, 比方active, impressive 跟一 些以 i-t-y 結(jié)尾的名詞, 比方 possibility, popularity 等等. 另外, 我們也要學(xué)習(xí)一 些跟新聞傳播有關(guān)系的詞匯.
現(xiàn)在我們先來聽今天這一課的對話,內(nèi)容是說亨利跟女兒琳達談到了看電視新 聞的事情. 請你注意聽兩位英文老師的發(fā)音和語調(diào).
F: Dad, what are you watching on television?
M: I'm watching the news, Linda. Why don't you join me and watch it too?
F: The news is boring. It's always the same thing.
M: You should know what's going on in the world. There's always the possibility that things could affect you.
F: I like things that are more active, more creative and more entertaining.
M: If you watched the news regularly, you would find it very informative.
F: Well, if you want me to watch the news with you, can we change to Channel 7?
M: Why?
F: Because the anchor-man on Channel 7 has a personality.
現(xiàn)在英文老師再把整段對話念一遍, 請你注意聽.
F: Dad, what are you watching on television?
M: I'm watching the news, Linda. Why don't you join me and watch it too?
F: The news is boring. It's always the same thing.
M: You should know what's going on in the world. There's always the possibility that things could affect you.
F: I like things that are more active, more creative and more entertaining.
M: If you watched the news regularly, you would find it very informative.
F: Well, if you want me to watch the news with you, can we change to Channel 7?
M: Why?
F: Because the anchor-man on Channel 7 has a personality.
下面我們來聽老師把對話里包含了我們今天要學(xué)的一些詞匯的句子再念一遍.
M: There's always the possibility that things could affect you.
F: I like things that are more active, more creative and more entertaining.
M: If you watched the news regularly, you would find it very informative.
F: Because the anchor-man on Channel 7 has a personality.
二.以-TIVE 和 -SIVE 結(jié)尾的形容詞
首先我們練習(xí)一些以 t-i-v-e 結(jié)尾的形容詞. 這些形容詞都是從動詞演變來的.
練習(xí)的作法是由男老師念動詞, 然后女老師把這個動詞演變成的形容詞念出 來, 接著男老師用那個形容詞作句子, 女老師就照樣重復(fù)一遍. 下面就是一個 例子.
M: act
F: active
M: Reporters are active in gathering news.
F: Reporters are active in gathering news.
這組練習(xí)里的句子都是說到電視記者的工作, 比方新聞界競爭激烈, 記者們忙 著跑新聞, 盡量把消息告訴觀眾, 希望作到消息又新又快; 他們必須要文筆好 又得知道觀眾的喜好,因為他們知道觀眾可以自由選擇節(jié)目, 不受歡迎的節(jié)目 就會被淘汰等等. 現(xiàn)在請你注意聽, 并且跟女老師一起把句子重復(fù)一遍.
M: act
F: active
M: Reporters are active in gathering news.
F: Reporters are active in gathering news.
M: inform
F: informative
M: They want to be as informative as possible.
F: They want to be as informative as possible.
