◆ Help the students to summarize the usage of the indirect speech.
Procedures
Leading in: by presentation.
Good morning, class. Yesterday we learned the first part of the play “The Merchant of Venice”. Now I want one of you to retell the story in your own words.
Task 1: Word study.
1. Turn to Word Study on page 69 and do the exercises.
2. Explain some words and phrases.
Task 2: Review Direct and Indirect Speech.
1. Now it’s time for us to review the Indirect Speech. First of all we will do some exercises. Please change the following sentences into indirect speech.
1) He said to me, “Don’t touch the machine”.
2) He said, “I will call on my uncle tomorrow”.
3) He said to me, “Did you see the play yesterday?”
4) He said to her, “How long have you had the car?”
2. Summing up. 直接引语和间接引语
一、 人称代词的变化
直接引语变间接引语时,人称代词的变化一般规律是:第一人称→第三人称;第二人称→第一人称;第三人称→第三人称,简记为“二一、一三、三留三”。这些变化需要在实践中体验,才能熟练运用。如:
“I’m thinking of changing my address.”he said.→
He said that he was thinking of changing his address. (I 和he指同一人)
Xiao Ming asked me, “Are you going to the park with us?”→
Xiao Ming asked me if I was going to the park with them.(us与them指相同的人,Xiao Ming是其中的一员;me和you指同一人)
Mr. Li said, “She will attend the meeting.”→
Mr. Li said that she would attend the meeting. (Mr. Li和she不是同一人)
但当说话者是第一人称,直接引语中的主语也是第一人称时,不作变化。如:
I said to my children, “I will give you some presents on Christmas Day.”→
I told my children I would give them some presents on Christmas Day. (I为同一说话者)
二、 时态的变化
直接引语变间接引语时,时态的变化规律是往“过去”相应的时态推移:
一般现在时→一般过去时,一般将来时→过去将来时,现在进行时→过去进行时,现在完成时→过去完成时,一般过去时/过去完成时→过去完成时。如:
My father told me, “He will come back next week.”→
My father told me that he would come back the next week.
She asked me, “Did you finish your homework?”→She asked me of I had finished my homework.
要注意,直接引语属于下列情况时,时态不作变化:
1、 直接引语属真理或客观事实时:
The teacher said to us, “Light runs much faster than sound.”→
The teacher told us light runs much faster than sound.
2、 主句谓语动词是现在或将来某个时态:
The old man often says, “I joined the Red Army when I was young.”→
The old man often says that he joined the Red Army when he was young.
3、 直接引语带有具体的过去时间状语时:
The politics teacher said to us, “The party was founded in 1921.”→
The politics teacher told us that the party was founded in 1921.
4、 直接引语谓语有情态动词:had better, would rather, 及need, must, ought to等时:He said to me, “I would rather live in the countryside.”→
He told me that he would rather live in the countryside.
5、 直接引语为虚拟语气谓语时:
She said, “I would be happy if I were a bird.” →
She said that she would be happy if she were a bird.
三、 其它词语的变化
常见需要变化的词语列表如下:
直接引语 间接引语
this, these that, those
here there
now then
today, tonight that day, that night
this evening that evening
Last week the week before
tomorrow the next / following day
