一.本課要點(diǎn)及示例
在這一課里, 我們要復(fù)習(xí)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài); 我們也要談一談美國(guó)的婦女運(yùn)動(dòng), 學(xué)一學(xué)有關(guān)婦女運(yùn)動(dòng)的詞匯.現(xiàn)在我們按照慣例先聽(tīng)今天這一課的對(duì)話, 內(nèi)容是說(shuō)亨利跟小女兒琳達(dá)談起了婦女就業(yè)的問(wèn)題. 請(qǐng)你注意聽(tīng)兩位英文老師的發(fā)音和語(yǔ)調(diào).
F: Dad, did Grandma go to the university when she was young?
M: No, she wasn't encouraged to do that.
F: Why not?
M: Well, at that time it was considered improper for a woman to have a higher education. Grandma got married when she was eighteen and she spent all her life taking care of her husband and the kids.
F: You mean she never had a job?
M: No, women were told that they could not have a family and a career at the same time.
F: Mother could. She has a family and she is also a teacher. Isn't that a career?
M: Yes. Time has changed. Nowadays women are permitted to do things that they were not allowed to do before.
下面老師用慢速度再把整段對(duì)話念一遍給你聽(tīng).
F: Dad, did Grandma go to the university when she was young?
M: No, she wasn't encouraged to do that.

M: No, women were told that they could not have a family and a career at the same time.
F: Mother could. She has a family and she is also a teacher. Isn't that a career?
M: Yes. Time has changed. Nowadays women are permitted to do things that they were not allowed to do before.
現(xiàn)在我把對(duì)話里包含被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)說(shuō)法的句子挑出來(lái), 請(qǐng)老師再念一遍給你聽(tīng).
M: She wasn't encouraged to do that.
M: It was considered improper for a woman to have a higher education.
M: Women were told that they could not have a family and a career at the same time.
M: Women are permitted to do things that they were not allowed to do before.
二.被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)復(fù)習(xí)
第一組練習(xí)的內(nèi)容是說(shuō)婦女過(guò)去不準(zhǔn)作的事情, 比方投票, 擁有土地, 追求事業(yè), 擔(dān)任公職等等. 練習(xí)的作法是老師用 weren't permitted 作一個(gè)句子, 接著老師念一個(gè)詞組, 學(xué)生就把他聽(tīng)到的詞組代換到原來(lái)的句子里.在學(xué)生作練習(xí)的時(shí)候請(qǐng)你也一起作.

下面我們作一組綜合練習(xí), 復(fù)習(xí)不同時(shí)態(tài)的被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)句子. 練習(xí)的作法是老 師提出一個(gè)問(wèn)題, 比方 "過(guò)去女性受男性支配嗎?" Were women dominated by men? 或者 "婦女一直被禁止擔(dān)任公職嗎?" Have women been prohibited from holding public office? 接著老師提出一個(gè)表明時(shí)態(tài)的詞組, 你就把詞組代換到原來(lái)的句子里. 首先我們給你舉一個(gè)例子,請(qǐng)你注意聽(tīng).
M: Were women dominated by men?
M: have been
F: Have women been dominated by men?
M: are being
F: Are women being dominated by men?

M: were
F: Were women encouraged to pursue a career?
M: are being
F: Are women being encouraged to pursue a career?

下面老師換了一個(gè)句子.

F: Has it been considered improper for a woman to have a profession?
M: is
F: Is it considered improper for a woman to have a profession?
M: should be

下面我們?cè)僮饕唤M練習(xí)比較主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)跟被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài). 練習(xí)的作法是老師用主動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)說(shuō)出一個(gè)句子,比方"社會(huì)對(duì)婦女加以限制"The society placed restrictions on women. 請(qǐng)你把句子改成被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài), 并且用 by 指明動(dòng)作執(zhí)行者, 所以答案就是: Restrictions were placed on women by the society. 在這一組練習(xí)里你可以學(xué)習(xí)到美國(guó)婦女過(guò)去受到的限制跟他們多年來(lái)爭(zhēng)取到的權(quán)利; 你也可以練習(xí)許多跟婦女運(yùn)動(dòng)有關(guān)系的詞匯, 比方 "保證" guarantee, "女權(quán)運(yùn)動(dòng)者"feminists, "支持" support, "男女平等權(quán)修正案" the equal rights amendment,"招收" admit 等等.
現(xiàn)在我們開(kāi)始作練習(xí). 每作完一句就請(qǐng)你聽(tīng)老師念正確答案.

下面我們?cè)僮饕唤M練習(xí), 一方面復(fù)習(xí)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài), 一方面復(fù)習(xí)剛才學(xué)的一些詞匯. 練習(xí)的作法是老師用疑問(wèn)詞提出一個(gè)問(wèn)題, 比方 What was placed on women? 接著老師說(shuō): social restrictions, 學(xué)生就用老師提出的詞組來(lái)回答問(wèn)題,所以答案就是: Social restrictions were placed on women.

三.聽(tīng)短文回答問(wèn)題
今天我們要聽(tīng)一篇談美國(guó)婦女運(yùn)動(dòng)的文章. 這篇文章里有許多被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)句子,文章里許多詞匯也是我們剛才練習(xí)過(guò)的.現(xiàn)在請(qǐng)你注意聽(tīng).
America has been called a democracy since its independence more than 200 years ago. However, at that time, only men were permitted to vote. Only men could own land and practice most professions. Women could not get a higher education or hold public office. The woman's place was considered to be the home. Working women were not common. They usually had poor jobs and little respect. Through the history of our country, many American women have worked to reduce the restrictions that society placed on them. They have met opposition. Slowly, however, the opportunities for women have increased. Colleges and universities were established for women. Later women were admitted to schools originally established only for men. In the early part of this century, American women were finally allowed to vote. During and since World War II American women have become a considerable part of the American work force. Today, many women in America hold important positions or are pursuing careers that they could not pursue in the past. But many women are dissatisfied with the current situation. They point out that women are often paid less than men for the same work they do. The top positions in nearly all fields are still overwhelmingly held by men. In many ways, a woman's life is still dominated by her father or her husband. Recently women worked to get an amendment to the U.S. Constitution guaranteeing their rights. The equal rights amendment, as it was called, was supported by most congressmen and most states. It did not get the support of two-thirds of the states which is necessary for a constitutional amendment. Nevertheless, the role and the rights of American women is an important concern in the U.S. today.
