Reading P1
“Good morning, Annie. It’s now 6:30 a.m. Your body temperature2 is 36.5 degrees3 Celsiusž, and your blood pressure4 is normal5. Here’s your schedule6 for the morning. At 8, you should leave for the airport to pick up your mother, who will arrive at about 9. Your car’s satellite navigation systemž has been set up for you. I will make a dinner reservation for you at your favorite restaurant. It is now 15°C outside, so don’t forget to put on a coat.” This is how Annie usually starts her day. With the help of her smartphone, Leila, Annie always knows exactly what to do for the day. 「早安,Annie。現在是早上六點三十分。您的體溫是攝氏36.5度,您目前的血壓正常。以下是您今天早上的行程。早上八點,您應該啟程前往機場接您的母親,她將在約九點時抵達。您的汽車衛星導航系統已為您設定好了。我將在您最喜愛的餐廳預約晚餐時段的訂位。目前室外溫度為攝氏15度,所以別忘了穿件外套。」Annie通常都是像這樣展開她的一天。有了她的智慧型手機Leila的幫忙,Annie總是確實地知道當天該做哪些事。
1 Good morning, Annie. It’s now 6:30 a.m.
表「上午……點」:時間 + a.m./AM/am
表「下午……點」:時間 + p.m./PM/pm
The train will arrive at 10:15 p.m./PM./pm.
SPP 3: Here is/are + S (名詞)
²  here為副詞,表示「在這裡」。
²  此句型是倒裝句,結構為:Here + is/are + 主詞(名詞)。動詞單複數由後面的主詞決定。
²  此為口語用法。用於引起對方注意,說話當下可能伴隨給予對方物品或展示的動作,也可用於發現正在尋找的物品。
²  如果主詞為代名詞,則結構為:Here + 代名詞 + is/are.
Ÿ         Here’s your schedule for the morning.
(這是您今天早上的行程。)
Ÿ         Here are the books you ordered.(這些是您訂的書。)
Ÿ         My keys are not in my bag. Oh, here they are.
(我的鑰匙不在我的包包裡。喔,它們在這啊。)
2 At 8, you should leave for the airport to pick up your mother, who will arrive at about 9.
SPP 4: leave for [比較:leave]
²  leave為不及物動詞時,接介系詞for表示「動身前往」,後接目的地或活動。
²  leave為及物動詞時,表示「離開」,後接受詞。如要說明從何地離開前往何處,可用leave A for B,表示「離開A前往B」。
leave過去式和過去分詞皆為left
Ÿ         At 8 o’clock, you should leave for the airport to pick up your mother.
(八點時,您應該出發去機場接您的母親。)
Ÿ         Peter is leaving Taipei for Shanghai.
Peter正要離開臺北前往上海。)
your mother為先行詞,因母親為獨一無二,其後的關係子句採非限定用法,關代who前必須加逗點,且who不可改為that
句型文法
(1)             非限定用法:先行詞具「獨一無二」特性(如專有名詞或唯一的人或物),在關代前加逗點補充說明。
Mr. Lin has a daughter, who lives in Taichung.
林先生只有一個女兒,補充說明她是住在臺中。
(2)             限定用法:關代前不加逗點,把定位不明的先行詞說明清楚。
Mr. Lin has a daughter who lives in Taichung.
林先生不只一個女兒,在此說的是住臺中的那個。
SPP 5: has/have been P.P.
²  have been P.P.是現在完成式的被動語態,表示「已經被……」。
²  主詞若為單數用has,複數用havehas/have been不變,主詞承受的動作用過去分詞表現。
²  可將現在完成式的被動語態想像成「現在完成式和被動語態相加」:
have P.P.
+     be P.P.
 have been  P.P.
²  現在完成式可參考第二冊L4句型I,被動語態可參考第一冊L6句型I
²  和現在完成式的被動語態容易混淆的have been V-ing是「現在完成進行式」,強調「主動動作的連續性,且當下仍在持續進行中。」
Ÿ         Your car’s satellite navigation system has been set up for you.
(您車子的衛星導航系統已經為您設定完成。)
Ÿ         This folk song has been sung for over a century.
(這首民謠已經傳唱超過一世紀了。)

By the time she looked up, her car had skiddedž off the road and was falling into a gorgež. Her life flashed13 before her eyes, but she could only see her phone and herself. For years, she had made no effort14 to spend time with the important people in her life. She realized that she had made a huge mistake and didn’t want her life to end in this way. 有一天,Annie在開車時正在和Leila一起玩一個應用程式遊戲。她全神貫注在遊戲當中,因此沒有注意道路前方有個彎道。等到她抬頭看時,她的車已經滑出車道,正墜落峽谷。她的一生閃過她的眼前,但她只看到她的手機與她自己。多年來,她未曾嘗試花時間與她生命中重要的人們相處。她恍然大悟,發現她已鑄下大錯,而她不想讓她的生命以此等方式畫下句點。

Reading P4
Annie screamed15 and sat up in bed. She realized that it was just a dream. She was breathing16 heavily, and her mother was trying to comfort17 her. Annie was glad her mother was there and reached out to hold her hand. Annie looked at the TV, seeing a commercial in which the president18 of a smartphone manufacturer19 was introducing20 a new model. However, she was now beginning to have second thoughts about smartphones. Annie驚聲尖叫,在床上驚坐了起來。她發覺方才只是個夢。她沉重地喘息,而她的媽媽試著安撫她。Annie很高興她的母親在身邊,伸手去握住她母親的手。Annie看著電視,一個電視廣告裡有個智慧型手機製造商的總裁正在介紹一款新型的手機。然而,她現在對智慧型手機產生猶豫了。
14 She was breathing heavily, and her mother was trying to comfort her.
句型文法
(1)             try + to VR 設法;企圖做某事(以達到某目的)
My brother tried to persuade my dad to buy him a smartphone.
(2)             try + V-ing 嘗試做某事(看會有何結果發生)

15 Annie looked at the TV, seeing a commercial in which the president of a smartphone manufacturer was introducing a new model.

句型文法  表「連續或附帶狀況」的分詞構句:
S1 + V..., and/but (S2) + VS1S2相同)
→S + V..., V-ing/(being) P.P.
The teacher listened to Tina sing, and she was amazed by her beautiful voice.
→The teacher listened to Tina sing, amazed by her beautiful voice.
Father stared at me, but he said nothing.
→Father stared at me, saying nothing.
2. in which the president...為關係子句,關代which修飾先行詞a commercial
句型文法  介系詞 + 關代:
若關係代名詞代替的是關係子句中介系詞的受詞,常將介系詞位移至關係代名詞之前,形成「介系詞 + 關代」的結構。
That is the man whom you are going to work with.
→That is the man with whom you are going to work.
That is the house which I used to live in.
→That is the house in which I used to live.
SPP 6: 介系詞 + 關係代名詞
²  關係代名詞代替的名詞如果為介系詞的受詞,以關係代名詞代替後,介系詞可移至關係代名詞前。
 This is the house.
 Mark lives in the house.
→ 以which合併為:This is the house which Mark lives in.
→ 介系詞in移至which前:This is the house in which Mark lives.
²  由此可見,當兩個句子以關係代名詞合併成一句,而被取代的名詞之前有介系詞,介系詞也可置於關係代名詞之前。
²  前有介系詞的關係代名詞,不可用that替換。
課文和上面例句的in which可用關係副詞where代換。關係副詞where的用法可參考L5句型II
Ÿ   Annie looked at the TV, seeing a commercial in which the president of a smartphone manufacturer was introducing a new model.
Annie看著電視,看到一個廣告,在裡面一家智慧型手機製造商的總裁正在介紹新機型。)

文法句型
Focal Point 1
(I) Instead of N/V-ing..., S + V.
(II) S + not V.… Instead, S + V.
教學建議
本單元句型是介紹介系詞片語instead of...(代替;取代;不…………)的用法。若是使用副詞instead時,前句為否定句,而instead之後的逗點接肯定句。
教學順序建議如下:
(1)             說明instead of + N/V-ing的用法。
(2)             說明instead 單獨使用的情形。
(3)             instead of instead的改寫。
(4)             補充instead of rather than的應用。
(1) 課文句型:instead of + N
S + V... instead of + 人/物……(代替,取代)
說明:instead of 為介系詞片語,後面接人或物表「代替、取代……」時,通常置於句中。
My boss asked me instead of him to attend the meeting.
The villagers in the mountains use wood instead of gas as fuel.
(2) 課文句型:instead of + V-ing
Instead of + V-ing..., S + V... (不,而
= S + V... instead of + V-ing...
說明:instead of為介系詞片語,後接動名詞表「不」時可置於句首或句尾。
Instead of blaming me, Joe gave me some advice.
= Joe gave me some advice instead of blaming me.
Instead of lying here in bed, you should be working.

(3) 課文句型:
S + not V.... Instead, S + V

2 否定句; instead, 肯定句.

Instead of taking the bus, many people drive to work.
= Many people don’t take the bus. Instead, they drive to work.
= Many people don’t take the bus, but drive to work instead.
(5) 補充句型:rather than
Instead of + V-ing..., S + V...(不
= Rather than + V-ing..., S + V...
說明:Instead of(參考課文句型)置於句首的用法,亦可用rather than置於句首之用法代換,此時rather than視為介系詞片語,後方結構通常是「動名詞」。
Instead of complaining all the time, Max should do something to solve his problems.

教學建議
本單元在介紹主要子句與副詞子句動詞時態之對應關係。By the time...(到時候)與When...(當時候)語意近似。
教學順序建議如下:
(1)             複習when子句的時態對應關係。
(2)             說明By the time子句的時態對應關係。
(1) 複習句型:When + S + V...
When + S + V-s/es..., S + will + VR...  時,將會
When + S + V-ed, S + was/were + V-ing...  時,正在
When + S + V-ed, S + had P.P.  時,已經
When love is gone, you will find life is empty.
[現在未來]
When you grow up, perhaps you’ll meet many challenges in your life.
[現在未來]
When Tom got home, his Mom was preparing a delicious dinner for him.
[過去過去進行]
When the phone rang, the Smiths were dining and watching TV in the kitchen.
[過去過去進行]
When we arrived at the airport, the plane had taken off.
[過去過去完成]
When Tim went to the doctor, he had (already) been sick for a week.
[過去過去完成]
(2) 課文句型:過去&過去完成式
By the time + S + V-ed, S + had + P.P.
說明:
本句型裡的by the time為表示時間的從屬連接詞片語,意思是「在某個特定時間之前,某事早就已經發生或完成」,因此by the time所引導的子句通常用過去簡單式,後面的主要子句的動詞則常用過去完成式。
By the time I was six years old, I had learned how to skate.
By the time I entered senior high school, I had been to Japan three times.
By the time Billy called me to invite me for dinner, I had already eaten.
(3) 課文句型:現在&未來完成式
By the time + S + V, S + will have P.P.
By + (未來)時間, S + will have P.P.
說明:
此句型可用在表示未來的情境中, 意思為「到……時,已經……」。by the time所引導的子句通常用現在簡單式表未來,主要子句的動詞則用未來完成式,強調未來將完成的事。
By the time Neil returns home from work, his family will have gone to bed.
By the time Tony finishes his latest novel, he will already have become famous.
By the end of this year, I will have worked for this company for fifteen years.
