一.本课要点及示例

在这一课里, 我们学习动词加上 to, t-o, to 再加上另外一个动词的用法, 比方 "拒绝参加" refuse to join, "要求得到" demand to get 等等. 我们还要学习许多 关于工会的词汇. (来源:英语学习门户 http://www.EnglishCN.com)

首先我们来听今天这一课的对话,内容是说凯特和他的同事比尔谈起了参加 教师工会的事情, 请你注意听两位英文老师的发音和语调.

F: Are you going to the union meeting tonight?

M: No, I refused to join a union. It's not professional.

F: I used to think that way, but not anymore. The union is here to stay, and I think it is a good thing.

M: Why do we need to have a union?

F: They communicate our views to the school board.

M: They demand to get more money and lighter workloads.

F: They work to get better learning situations for our students.

M: Like what?

F: They managed to get the school board to control class size and offer more courses.

M: Yes, they were helpful in those cases, but I still don't want to join the union.

现在我请英文老师用慢速度再把整段对话念一遍.

F: Are you going to the union meeting tonight?

M: No, I refused to join a union. It's not professional.

F: I used to think that way, but not anymore. The union is here to stay, and I think it is a good thing.

M: Why do we need to have a union?

F: They communicate our views to the school board.

M: They demand to get more money and lighter workloads.

M: Like what?

F: They managed to get the school board to control class size and offer more courses.

下面我们再把对话里包含了今天要学的语法的句子挑出来, 用慢速度念一遍 给你听.

二.NEED TO

听了上面那些句子, 我想你已经注意到用 to 连接的两个动词可以用来说明同 一个主语. 现在我们作几组练习, 多学学这类动词词组. 首先我们学习 need to have. 比方 "工人需要减轻工作量." 这句话英文可以这样说: Workers need to have lighter workloads.

下面英文老师用 need to have 作一些句子, 说明工人需要有什么, 比方 "较高 的工资" higher wages, "小额优惠" fringe benefits, "职业保障" job protection, "退休金" retirement pension,"工会代表" union representatives 等等. 你注意听 老师念句子, 并且跟着学生把句子重复一遍.

M: Workers need to have better working conditions.

F: Workers need to have better working conditions.

F: Workers need to have representatives.

三.DEMAND TO GET, ARE ALLOWED TO 和 WANT TO

刚才那些新词汇如果你还不太熟没有关系. 现在我们作一组代换练习把这些 词汇练习一下; 不过这次我请英文老师用 "需要得到" demand to get 作句子.

练习的作法是老师念一个句子, 接着老师念出一个词组, 学生就把词组代换 到原来的句子里. 在学生作练习的时候, 请你也一起作.

M: Workers demand to get higher wages.

F: Workers demand to get better working conditions.

M: more fringe benefits

F: Workers demand to get more fringe benefits.

M: job protection

M: Workers are allowed to form a union.

F: The unions want to communicate with the management.

四.REFUSE TO, MANAGE TO等等

下面我们作一组练习, 学学怎么用 refuse to 加上另外一个动词来说明拒绝作 什么事. 练习的作法是老师提出一些有关劳资双方讨价还价的问题, 比方老 师问你: "资方拒绝妥协了吗?" Did the management refuse to compromise? 接 着老师说: No, 你就回答说: No, they didn't refuse to compromise. 老师也许 问你:"资方拒绝雇更多人吗?"Did the management refuse to hire more people?

接着老师说: Yes,那么你就回答说: Yes, they refused to hire more people. 在 这组练习里, 你还可以学到其他有用的词汇, 比方 "讨论" discuss, "减轻工作 量" reduce workloads, "加薪" raise salaries 等等. 现在我们开始作练习, 每作 完一句就请你听老师念正确答案.

下面我们作一组综合练习, 用不同动词词组学学美国劳资双方怎么解决彼此 之间的歧见.在这组练习里你可以练习几个很有用的动词,比方 "同意" agree, "威胁" threaten, "合作" cooperate 等等. 练习的作法是老师用疑问词提出一个 问题, 接着老师念出一个词组, 请你用老师给你的词组来回答问题. 每作完 一句, 就请你听老师念正确答案.

五.听短文回答问题

今天我们要听一篇介绍美国工会的文章. 这篇文章不但提到工会成立的经过, 也谈到了什么是 "集体谈判" collective bargaining.

现在请你注意听.

Nearly 100 years ago, America's working people began to join together to improve their wages and their working situations. They formed unions. The unions presented a united position among workers in discussions with owners of businesses and factories. This idea became known as collective bargaining.

Unions were started at separate local factories. Slowly unions in several factories started to join together. As they gained size, the unions were able to gain strength and effectiveness. By the 1950's unions were successfully representing their members in most American industries.

Unions began as organizations for factory workers. Later skilled workers such as electricians and plumbers organized into unions. Recently professional people have also begun to form unions. Many teachers and nurses, for example, belong to unions. Today the largest unions have several million members.

The unions not only represent the workers in discussions with business management.

They also train workers for jobs, give members money if they lose their jobs, and pay workers pensions when they retire. In many situations, a person is not allowed to take a job unless he belongs to the union.

Unions have become established institutions of American industry. Unions and management have learned to work for the benefit of both workers and owners.

现在我们先把今天测验的问题听一遍.

第一个问题是:

M: Why do American workers join unions?

第二个问题是:

M: What do unions do nowadays?

第三个问题是:

M: Are there professional unions in the United States?

现在我们再听英文老师用慢速度把整篇文章念一遍.

Nearly 100 years ago, America's working people began to join together to improve their wages and their working situations. They formed unions. The unions presented a united position among workers in discussions with owners of businesses and factories. This idea became known as collective bargaining.

Unions have become established institutions of American industry. Unions and management have learned to work for the benefit of both workers and owners.

现在请你回答你刚才听过的三个问题. 每回答一个问题,老师就会念出正确答 案让你作个比较, 看你是不是答对了. 只要意思答对了就行, 不一定要每个字 跟老师的说法一样. 现在我们开始.

第一个问题是:

第二个问题是:
