4、 引导学生找出对话中的语言点。
1） As far as I remember, it was started by Becky Wang.
凭我记忆,它(这本杂志)是由贝基.王创办的.
as far as...表示“至于,就......”.如:
He isn't coming today ,as far as I know .据我所知,他今天不来了.
2 ）Confucius' works are still read by many people today ,and we are still influenced by his thoughts.今天,仍然有许多人在读孔子的论著,我们也仍然受他思想的影响.Confucius 指孔子,是“孔夫子"”的英语译名.由于历史的原因,中国古代思想家孔子和孟子(Mencius,也是从"“孟夫子"”翻译而来的)的英语译名一般不使用拼音直接翻译.现在,大多数我国特有的名称等都取汉语拼音的翻译的方法.
3） Mark Twain was a important writer ,but he isn't known as a great thinker like Confucius .
马克.吐温是一位重要的作家,但他并不像孔子那样作为伟大的思想家而文明于世.
