2、to use some useful structuresProceduresI. Warming up by learning to guessing the meaning of words from contextStudents should be encouraged to try to guess the meaning of unfamiliar words using clues in the context. These clues may be in the surrounding words. The text may provide a definition that
3、explains the unfamiliar word, or it may give examples to illustrate the unfamiliar word. There may be connecting words used after the familiar word that indicates similarity or contrast. If the student is familiar with the item that is being compared or contrasted this should provide a clue to the u

Sometimes knowledge of common roots and affixes or similarity to words in the students own language can help them guess the meaning of a particular word.II.

5、s and expressions exercises 1, 2 and 3. III. Revising the Subjunctive MoodThe Subjunctive MoodA verb is in the subjunctive mood when it expresses a condition which is doubtful or not factual. It is most often found in a clause beginning with the word if. It is also found in clauses following a verb
6、that expresses a doubt, a wish, regret, request, demand, or proposal. These are verbs typically followed by clauses that take the subjunctive: ask, demand, determine, insist, move, order, pray, prefer, recommend, regret, request, require, suggest, and wish. In English there is no difference between
7、the subjunctive and normal, or indicative, form of the verb except for the present tense third person singular and for the verb to be. The subjunctive for the present tense third person singular drops the -s or -es so that it looks and sounds like the present tense for everything else. The subjuncti

Incorrect: His requirement is that everyone is computer literate. Correct: His requirement is that everyone be computer literate. (Sub
10、ordinate clause follows main clause with a demand.) Incorrect: He recommended that each driver reports his tips. Correct: He recommended that each driver report his tips. Sometimes we may use the conditional auxiliary verbs of could, should, or would to express the same sense. Subjunctive: I wish he
11、 were kinder to me. Conditional: I wish he would be kinder to me. Note: In modern English, the subjunctive is only found in subordinate clauses.Subjunctive formsubjunctive presentIf + s + verb word , s + will + verb word subjunctive pastIf + s + verb (past tense) , s + would (should, could, might) +
