Module7Unit1九上.ppt

Mr Jackson: Hello, Betty. What’s up? Betty: I want to join an Internet group to discuss great books by great writers. Mr Jackson: So, who are your great writers? Betty: Well, maybe Confucius and Shakespeare. Mr Jackson: Really? I accept that they’re great because their works are still read by many people today. But I think I’d describe Confucius more as a teacher and thinker than a writer. He was a very wise man. What do you have to do for the discussion? Betty: Well, each of us reads a favourite book and writes a review for the discussion. Mr Jackson: I see. We’re still influenced by Confucius’ ideas, and Shakespeare’s plays also make a lot of sense to us today. People have always read, and will always read great books. By the way, what do you think of Mark Twain, the great American writer in the nineteenth century? 1. 在本模块中，work是名词，意为“著作；作品”，既可以指文字作品，也可以指音乐、美术等作品。如： He is making a study of William Faulkner’s works. 他在研究威廉·福克纳的作品。 [其它用法回顾 ] (1). 作名词，意为“工作；(要做的)事情”。如： I can’t find work in this town. 在这个小镇上我找不到工作。 He did much work for class every day. 他每天为班级做好多事情。 (2). 作动词，意为“工作”。如： Henry works in a bank. 享利在银行工作。 (3). 作动词，意为“运转；运行”。如： My watch doesn’t work. 我的表不走了。 Now match the people with the descriptions. 4.
