一、情态动词should和could的基本运用
1(should 应该
(1)should意为―应该‖,常用于表示―要求‖―劝告‖或―建议‖。shouldn't为should的否定形式,意为―不应该,不要‖。
You have a cold. You should stay at home for a few days.你感冒了,你应该在家待几天。 The teachers should be friendly to us. They shouldn't be always very strict.老师应该对我们友好。他们不应该总是严厉。
(2)should作为情态动词,在句中无主语和人称的变化,后接动词原形。含有should的肯定句变为一般疑问句或否定句时,将should提前或于其后加上―not‖即可。
Cathy Taylor should help do some chores at home.?Should Cathy Taylor help do any chores at home,?Cathy Taylor shouldn't help do any chores at home.
2(could意为―能;可能‖,用于表示能力,许可及猜测等,具体用法如下:
(1)意为―能;能够‖,作can的过去式,表示在过去有能力做某事时使用。
My uncle could speak two foreign languages when he was in college.我叔叔在上大学时能说两种外语。
(2)意为―可以;能‖,常用于委婉语气句中,这时通常又用于下面两种情况。 第一种:用于礼貌地向别人请求准许。作此用法时,相当于―may‖―can‖。could 表示的语气比―may‖―can‖ 要委婉得多。
—Could I use your pen,please,我能用一下你的钢笔吗,
—Of course. Here you are./Oh,sorry,I'm using it now.当然了,给你。/噢,抱歉,我正在使用。 第二种:用于委婉地建议别人去做某事,此时语气比―should‖轻。
—My teachers always give me lots of homework. I don't think I need so much homework. What

“冰雪之乡”的意思。这里终年冰雪覆盖,一座座冰峰如倚天的宝剑,一条条冰川像蜿蜒的银蛇。其中最为高耸的则是位于中国和尼泊尔边界上的珠穆朗玛峰,它以高达8844.43米的高度,是世界最高峰。
珠穆朗玛峰(Qomolangma),简称珠峰,又译作圣母峰,尼泊尔称为萨加马塔峰,也叫“埃非勒斯峰”,Everest～,位于中华人民共和国和尼泊尔交界的喜马拉雅山脉之上,终年积雪。高度8844.43米,为世界第一高峰,中国最美的、令人震撼的十大名山之一。
珠峰所在的喜马拉雅山地区原是一片海洋,在漫长的地质年代,从陆地上冲刷来大量的碎石和泥沙,堆积在喜马拉雅山地区,形成了这里厚达3万米以上的海相沉积岩层。以后,由于强烈的造山运动,使喜马拉雅山地区受挤压而猛烈抬升,据测算,平均每一万年大约升高20:30米,直至如今,喜马拉雅山区仍处在不断上升之中。
1953年5月29日,34岁来自新西兰的登山家埃德蒙〃希拉里,Edmund Hillary～作为英国登山队队员与39岁的尼泊尔向导丹增〃诺尔盖Tenzing Norgay 一起沿东南山脊路线登上珠穆朗玛峰,是纪录上第一个登顶成功的登山队伍。
1960年5月25日,中华人民共和国人首次登上珠穆朗玛峰。他们是王富洲、贡布,藏族～、屈银华。此次攀登,也是首次从北坡攀登成功。
1975年5月16日,日本人田部井淳子从东南山脊路线登上了珠穆朗玛峰,是世界登山运动史上第一个踏上地球之巅的女性。
1975年5月27日,中国登山队的藏族女队员潘多成为世界上第一个从北坡登上珠穆朗玛峰的女性。

Step 2---Reading Tips
阅读时,可根据阅读任务的不同,综合运用略读(skimming)与扫读
(scanning) 。提高快速阅读水平。
通过略读把握文章大意
略读(skimming)只看文章标题、下标题以及每个部分或者段落第一行,关注
文章中反复出现的关键词。
略读时,要用充足的时间读懂段落的第一句和第二句,因为第一句往往是该
段的主题句(topic sentence),而第二句往往是对前句的延伸(extension)或进一
步的解释(explanation)。
通过扫读寻找特定信息或特定词组
运用扫读(scanning)迅速浏览从第三句开始的后面部分,搜寻作者对开头两
句的支持句(supporting sentences),并同时注意文章中间是否有转折词
(transition),因为这些词常常会把文章的思路逆转或加入其它重要的信息。当读
到段落的最后一句时,我们又要使用略读,这时必须再次放慢速度(slow down your pace)直到完全消化作者对段落的小结(conclusion),因为该小结有可能与主
题句截然相反或引导读者进入下一个段落。
Step 3---2b Scan the article to find out what these numbers mean: 10, 20, 200, 2,000.
10 — Adult pandas eat 10 kilos of bamboo daily. 12 — Adult pandas spend more than 12 hours a day eating. 300 — About 300 pandas live in zoos or research centers in China or other countries.
2000 — Scientists say there are fewer than 2,000 pandas living in the forests.
Step 4---2c Read the article again and write short answers to the questions.
1) What is Lin Wei’s job?
He is a panda keeper.
72
G0 For It---Teaching-plans of Grade 8 (B)
Designed by Xie Yu
2) What do the baby pandas have for breakfast?
Baby pandas drink milk for breakfast.
3) Why are pandas endangered?
Pandas are endangered because they do not have many babies, and the babies often die from
illnesses and do not live very long. As the forests get smaller and other human activities cause
more problems, pandas cannot find enough to eat and they are having fewer babies. 4) What does the education program in Chengdu do?
They send people to schools to tell children about the importance of saving pandas and other
endangered wild animals.
5) Why are scientists doing research?
They hope to better understand the habits of pandas.

The teddy bear has given me many good memories. I remember when I was young and I was scared at night because I didn‘t like the dark, I held my teddy bear to feel safe.
