5) The prince knew ______ the girl’s foot could fit the shoe, it was not the right girl. unless; 点拨:句意“王子知道,除非女孩的脚与鞋子合适,否则就不是他要的女孩”,可知上下句之间存在条件关系 故应用unless一词6) The new couple were _____ happy ______ they couldn’t stop smiling when they got married. 点拨:句意“这对新婚夫妇是如此的幸福,以至于他们不停地在笑可知上下文之间存在因果关系,“高兴”的结果是“不停地在笑” ,故应用so…that句式Work on 4b.1. 让学生们阅读短文,了解短文的大意,为进行填词做好准备2. 认真阅读每个句子,分析句子的时态,根据上下文确定括号中单词应该填的时态3. 逐句进行分析推敲,确定括号中单词的恰当时态4. 最后,通读一遍短文,进行综合理解,看短文内容是否通顺,合理5.
