教学建议
教学教法：
这篇文章思想性较强，故事很感人。另外在具体语境中词汇的用法地道。教师可把教学重点放在课文内容理解，具体语境中对重点词的把握，以及启发学生面对逆境的生活态度。
语法：Tenses （时态）及被动语态
Tenses （时态）
1.过去进行时的用法
1）表示过去某一时刻或某一段时间正在进行的动作，往往通过表示某一段时间的状语或上下文表示。如：
①The teacher was giving a lesson at this time yesterday. 昨天这个时候老师正在上课。
②What were you doing when Mr Li came in? 李先生进来时你在干什么？
2）表示说话人喜悦、不满、厌烦等感情色彩，往往与always，all the time，very often等状语连用。如：
①He was smiling all the time. 他一直笑容满面。
②Tom was always asking me foolish questions.汤姆总是向我提愚蠢的问题。
3）用于故事开头，描绘故事发生的背景，常常和一般过去时交替使用。如：
①He looked out of the window. Dark clouds were moving; it was becoming foggy. 他向窗外望去，乌云飘动着，天正变得雾蒙蒙的。
4）表示运动方向的动词。come，go，start，leave，stay等的过去进行时可以表示从过去看即将发生的行为（即过去将来时）。如：
①He said he was staying here for another week. 他说他将在此再呆一周。
②I wanted to know when you were leaving for Beijing. 我想知道你何时动身上北京。
▲过去进行时表示过去某时刻或某段时间正在进行的动作，强调动作的进行或展开的情景，而一般过去时通常表示过去发生的一个事实。如：
①Last night Mary wrote a letter to her mother.
昨晚玛丽给她妈妈写了信。（表示写信这个事实，信已写好）
②Last night Mary was writing a letter to her mother.
昨晚玛丽一直在给妈妈写信。（强调动作情景，不一定写完信）
2．过去完成时的用法
过去完成时表示在过去某一时间或行为之前已经发生的动作（过去的过去）或从过去某一时刻开始一直延续到过去另一时间的动作或状态。
1）用介词by表示在过去某个时刻之前或到过去某个时刻为止的意思，用介词before表示在……之前。如：
①By the end of last term we had learned five English songs.
到上学期末我们学会五首英语歌曲。
②By the time he left school he had studied French（for）two years.
