Through reading , we could know something about the different literature and different people.
Now Let’s discuss something about Bowling in Unit 1.

I. Bowling around the world （Unit 1）
一. Vocabulary
1. alley 球场（保龄） 2. court（网球、棒球等）球场
3. pin保龄球柱 4. lane保龄球球道
5. ancient古代的 6. European欧洲人

3. turn against 使反对
4. clean up 整顿、清理
5. at least 至少、最少
6. make time for 腾出时间（做某事）
7. far away 远离、遥远的

三. 重点难点分析：
1. Bowling is a game played by rolling a heavy ball down a wooden lane.
保龄球是一项沿木制球道滚动一个重球的游戏。
played 是个过去分词做定语定a game.
有被动的意义。（表示这个游戏被玩）
by 是个介词表示“通过”。介词后＋名词、代词等
因此动词roll变为动名词rolling.
down a wooden lane 中“down”也是个介词表示“沿着”

2. In America in the 1800s , bowlers began betting money on games .
19世纪在美国，保龄球员们开始在游戏上赌钱。
（1）in the 1800s 在年代后加“s”，在之前加“the”，表示“19世纪”如果说in the 1870s表示“在19世纪70年代”。
（2）begin doing sth . 表示开始做某事。
也可以说begin to do sth .
（3）bet money on sth . 在…上赌钱。
注意bet的动名词为betting , 其过去式为：bet 或betted.

3. This turned some people against bowling and it was made illegal in some cities .
这使得一些人反对保龄球运动，在一些城市它（指保龄球）被认为不合法的（运动）。
turn sb against sth . 意思是说“使得某人反对某事”。
“it was made”是使…成为…是个被动语态
同学们知道意思就可以了。

4. Other people kept bowling anyway.
无论如何其他人继续（打）保龄球。
keep doing 表示继续做某事。
如The bell kept ringing for a long time.
铃不断地响了好久。

5. The American Bowling Congress decided to clean up bowling and make it a gentlemen’s game again.
美国保龄球协会决定整顿保龄球运动，使它再次成为一项绅士游戏。
decide to do sth . 表示决定去做某事
decide 后加不定式to do . 如：
I decide to recite 20 English words every day .
我决定每天背20个英文单词。
clean up 为清理或整顿。

6. No more betting was allowed.
不允许再有任何的赌博现象。
“was allowed”是被动语态表示“被允许”

7. Some alleys even have heated pools to make people come to play.
一些球馆甚至有加热的水池使人们来玩。
make people come 使人们来
这个句型是“make sb do sth ”使某人做某事。
注意do sth 中do 为原型，即省去“to”的动词不定式
如：I made him read English yesterday .
我昨天让他读英语。

8. More than 80 bowling alley have opened in Beijing alone.
光北京就开了80多个保龄球馆。
have opened 表示“已经开了”是一般完成时态。
我们会在以后的单元学习中学习这个时态。

9. There will be at least triple the number of lanes in the next 10－12 years .
在接下来的10到20年至少会有三倍这个数量的保龄球馆。

be triple 表示三倍
那么表示“二倍”用“be double”

12. The bowling alley isn’t far away and a night out doesn’t cost much .
保龄球馆离这不远。出去（玩）一晚上不会花费太大。
（1）be far away from … 表示“离（某处）远”。
（2）A）cost表示“价值…”“花…”，其过去式为cost.
这个动词前的主语通常是“物”，即
sth cost sb （money）
某物花了某人多少钱。
如：这本书花了我10元。
This book cost me ten yuan.
B）pay 表示付款，其过去式为paid.
这个动词的主语通常表示“人”。即

这里边有个句型“not …until”译成中文为“直到…才”。

在Unit one 中我们讲到了
“see sb do sth ”表示看到某人做某事了，强调看见谁做过什么事。
如：I saw her clean the classroom.
是说我看到她打扫教室了。（强调做过这件事）
而在我们的文中用的是：“see sb doing sth ”
表示看到某人正在做某事强调“看见某人正在做某事”
如：I saw her cleaning the classroom.
我看到她正在扫打教室（强调正在做某事）
像see 这样的感官动词还有hear , feel , watch , notice （注意到）都可以跟do 或doing分别表不同的意思

I heard him playing the piano.

6. I know a lot of families where competition starts from a very young age .

“Where competition starts from a very young age”作“families”的定语从句。
start from 从…开始。

7. A lot of them are used to having their time filled up by their parents .
他们许多人已经习惯被他们的父母将时间安排得满满的。
（1）“have their time filled up ”使他们的时间被排满
have sth done “是使某物被怎么样做”
filled 为过去分词表被动
fill up 为填补或装满。
如：他使那个杯子摔得粉碎
He made that cup broken into pieces.
broken 为break的过去分词表示“被摔碎”
（2）A lot of them are used to having.
这句话中的句型为“be used to doing sth ”
表示习惯于做某事。“used”在这里为形容词“习惯于…的”
如：他习惯早上淋浴。
He is used to taking a shower every morning.
“to”为介词，后边加“doing”为动名词。
be used to doing 可以用于各种时态。
如那时他习惯每天早上淋浴。（过去时）
At that time , he was used to taking a shower every morning.
（3）请注意be used to doing sth 习惯做某事与used to do sth 过去（常常）习惯做某事的区别
used to do sth . 表示过去习惯做的事，只能用于过去时
而且used 后边要加不定式“to do ”而不是doing .
请看例句：
He used to get up late . But now he is used to getting up early .
他过去习惯晚起。但现在他习惯早起床。
在“used to do ”句型中used为动词，表示“过去常常”。
