what to wear.
Girl1: If I were you, I’d wear a shirt and tie.
Boy1: What if everybody else is wearing jeans and Tshirts?
Girl1: Oh, you shouldn’t worry about what other
people are wearing.
Boy1: And I don’t have a present. What if
everyone brings a present?
Girl1: If I were you, I’d take a small present-a
pen or something. Keep it in your pocket
and if everyone has a present, you can
give him yours. If not, you can keep it.
Boy1: OK. But what if I don’t know anyone?
Girl1: If you don’t know anyone, you can talk to
Tom. He’ll introduce you to people.
Boy1: I guess I can do that.
Girl1: Look! You’re sure to have fun. But if
you’re still nervous, you can leave.
Explanation
1. bring的意思是把某人或某物“带
来”, “拿来”, 强调方向, 即从别处拿
到说话人这儿来。 e.g.
Next time you come , bring me that
book, please.
下次你来的时候, 把那本书带来。
take的意思是把人或物“带走, 拿走”,
即从说话人这儿带到别处去。e.g.
Who has taken away today’s
newspaper?
谁拿走了今天的报纸？
另外, 相似的词还有get 和fetch, 表
示到某地找到某人或某物并带回来，
强调一去一回。 e.g.
Go and get some water.
去弄点水来。
Can you fetch me some paper ?
你能给我取点纸吗？
2. might：意思是“可以”，“可能”，
用作情态动词或虚拟语气中。
(1) He said that I might borrow his bike.
(情态动词may的过去式,表示许可，意思
是“可以”）
他说我可以借他的自行车。
(2) He might not know anyone at the
party. 他可能在晚会上谁也不认识。
may的虚拟语气形式, 不表示过去, 而表
示现在或将来“可以, 可能”, 但语气更
委婉、客气, 有时表示对可能性有所怀疑。
Grammar focus
1.虚拟语气：如果我们所说的不是事实,也
不是要求、命令、劝告等，而只是一种
假设、愿望、建议或是一种实现不了的
空想就用虚拟语气。
注意: 条件句分两种, 真实条件句和虚拟
条件句。只有在虚拟(非真实)条件
句中, 才用虚拟语气, 而在真实条件句中,
要用陈述语气。
请比较：
(1). If it is sunny tomorrow, we’ll go to
the zoo.
如果明天天气好, 我们将会去公园。
在这句话中, 明天天气好是完全有可
能实现的, 并非虚拟、幻想, 因此是真实
条件句。
(2). If I were you , I would go at once.
(如果我是你的话, 我立刻就走。)
这句话是条件句 “如果我是你”, 但
事实上, 我不可能成为你, 这只是假
设的情况, 没有实现的可能。当条件
实现的可能性很小, 甚至可以说没有
时, 就需要用虚拟语气来表示, 动词
发生了变化。
也就是说虚拟语气表示和现实的事
实相反时，从句用一般过去时, 主
句用 “should/would/could/ might
+动词原形” 。
• If I had time, I would go for a walk.
• If I were invited, I would go to the
dinner party.
• If I won a million dollars in the
lottery, I would put it in the bank.
2. He doesn’t know if he should bring a
present.
此处 if 表示“是否”, 引导宾语从句。
Should此处表示“应该”, 不是虚拟语气。
①. I don’t know if I should go to the
party.
②. If I have enough money, I will go
to Hainan.
present 在这是“礼物”的意思。
3. If I were you, I’d wear a shirt and tie.
if 引导的条件状语从句表示与现在事
实相反的虚拟语气时, be动词只能用
were, 而不能用was。
e. g. If he were here, he would not
agree with you.
4. I don’t have a present. What if
everyone else brings a present?
What if… “如果……怎么办? ”相
当于 what would happen if…
e. g. What shall I do if it snows?
Reading (3a: P28)
1. I get nervous before big parties.
在大的晚会之前,我会感到紧张。
get nervous 变得紧张, get是系动词,
nervous是形容词做表语。
又如: be nervous 或feel nervous 均可表
达同样的含义。
2.Then I ’m too tired to do well.
然后就很累, 考不好。
too… to …意为“太…而不能”, 出现在
简单句中，常与so …that …句式
not …enough to do句式进行转换。
He is too young to go to school.
=He is so young that he can’t go to school.
=He is not old enough to go to school.
这三个句子的意思都是: 他太小而不能上学。
Role Play (3b: P28)
Sample conversations:
1. — I’m really shy and I just don’t
enjoy parties. I don’t know what to
say or do. What should I do?

2. — I get nervous before big parties
and then I get pimples. They look
terrible! What should I do?

someone and forget about the parties.
3. — I can’t sleep the night before I take
a big exam. Then I’m too tired to do

From: Knowledgeable
Dear Fran,
Shyness is extremely common, especially
among teens. As shy people, most of us are
worrying about ourselves—about how we look,
what we say and whether other people will like
us—to stop to think about what we can do for
other people. But really, that’s what being social
is about—the other person, not us. So you can
tell her two ways to overcome shyness.
First, tell her that she should let people know
that she is shy in case she is misunderstood.
Second, tell her that it is better to make things
easy for the other person. Tell her to remember
that she is the best person for the job; she can
practise in various ways. And tell the rest of the
students that you should all help and
encourage her to overcome shyness.
