Check students homework. (Workbook P98)Step Grammar 1Teacher writes down the following sentences on the
36、Bb: The woman who greeted me is teacher.Lucy, who greeted me, is my teacher.T: Well, now please look at the sentences on the blackboard. What can you find in each sentence? Ss: A relative clause. T: Yes. In each sentence, there is a relative clause, but there is something different. Please compare t
37、hem carefully and tell the difference between them. I will give you two minutes to discuss and prepare. Then you can tell us your opinions. Two minutes later.S1: A comma is used between the noun and the relative clause in the second sentence. No comma is used in the first sentence.T: Quite right! Wh
38、o can tell more about it? S2: In the first sentence, the relative clause tells us which person the speaker is talking about. However, in the second sentence, which person is being talked about is already clear, so I think the relative clause is not a necessary part. T: Excellent! You are all clever.
39、 The first relative clause is called defining relative clause. It is a necessary part in the sentence. It offers essential information about the subject. The sentence will not make sense if the defining relative clause is taken away. The second relative clause is called non-defining relative clause.
40、 It contains extra information. If the non-defining relative clause is taken away from the sentence, the sentence will still make sense. So it is not a necessary part. You can always find commas before and after the non-defining relative clauses. Go through the three exercises on P54. T: Now I will
41、give you three minutes to finish the first part of Grammar on P54. Then I will ask some of you to give us your answers. Three minutes later, check the answers with the whole class.T: OK, now its your turn to do the second and the third part. You should do them yourselves first. After that you can di

43、ore was my sister. The woman I met in the bookstore was my sister.T: Well, now please look at the sentences on the blackboard. There is a difference between the two relative clauses. What is it? Ss: There is a relative pronoun that in the first relative clause, while there is no relative pronoun in
44、the second.T: You are right. Do the sentences have the same meaning? Ss: Yes. T: These two sentences mean the same thing. There is a relative clause in each sentence. You should pay attention to this: the relative pronoun can be contracted when it is used as object in the relative clause. Go through
45、 the exercises on P56. T: Now Ill give you two minutes to do the first part of Grammar 2. When you have difficulty, you may ask your partners for advice or raise your hands. Two minutes later, check the answers with the whole class.T: We have learned that the relative pronoun can be contracted when
46、it is used as object in the relative clause. Which relative pronouns can be contracted in the following sentences in the third part? After a little while, ask several students to read the sentences in which the relative pronouns can be contracted. Then ask them to give the reason.T: Now lets do the
47、fourth part. In this part, you will find two sentences in each exercise. You need to make each pair of sentences into one sentence that contains a relative clause. Youd better first make sure which sentence will be changed into a relative clause. Before your work, it wound be better to study the exa
48、mple. Ask four students to come to the front to write down their sentences on the Bb. The others need to finish this exercise on a piece of paper. Teacher goes around the classroom to see if any students have difficulties. Four minutes later, check the answer in the class.T: Sometimes not only the r
49、elative pronoun can be contracted but also the verb is when the relative pronoun is used as subject in the relative clause. Pay attention to the sentences in the second part. Ask students to study the sentences in the second part and then give each other more examples. Step Practice Ask students to do the exercises in the workbook.T: Now we are going to do more exercise to practice the relative clauses. Please do the exercises on P97 and P98. First do the exercises individually and then we will check them together
