Section A How do you spend your free time
(4a—4c)
Learning Objectives
In this lesson you will:
1. identify infinitives as objective complements and adverbials.
2. use infinitives to show purpose or provide more information
about a sentence as an object.
Read the sentences. Decide if each infinitive in bold functions as an object complement or adverbial.
adverbial
object complement
在I saw my mother paint. 这句话中,paint是不带to的不定式,作宾语补足语。
4a
不定式作宾语补足语
在英语中,有些句子只有宾语并不能表达完整的意思,还必须在宾语后面加上宾语补足语才能表达完整的意思。宾语补足语通常位于宾语之后。我们把“宾语+宾语补足语”称为复合宾语。例如:
My father encourages me to play the guitar.
The manager asked him to wait.
The teacher tells the students not to cheat in the exam.
They often tell me not to get close to strangers.
宾语是动作的执行者
当不定式作宾语补足语时,分带to的不定式作宾补和不带to的不定式作宾语两种情况。
常见的用带to的不定式作宾补的动词(短语)有:ask, advice, allow, encourage, get, order, require, teach, tell, want, wish, expect, warn, permit, force等。
常见的用不带to的不定式作宾补的动词(短语)有:“一感”feel;“二听”hear, listen to;“三使”let, have, make;“五看”see, watch, notice, observe, look at; “半帮助”help接不定式作宾补,加不加to都可以。
Examples
I felt the ground shake during the earthquake.
Listen to the birds sing.
The joke made everyone laugh.
Did you see him leave the office
Can you help me (to) carry this box
不定式作状语
状语用来修饰动词、形容词或副词。它表示行为发生的时间、地点、目的、方式、原因、程度等意义,一般由副词、介词、介词短语、不定式、从句或相当于副词的词或短语来担任。不定式作状语时,多至于句末。但为了加强语气,突出表示目的,不定式(尤其是不定式短语in order to)可放在句首。例如:
(In order) to catch up with my classmates, I must study harder.
To catch the early bus, I got up very early this morning.
I went to the library to borrow some books.
She studies hard to get good grades.
不定式的动作执行者是句子的主语

Learning Objectives
In this lesson you will:
1. understand the main idea of the text about the importance of
hobbies.
2. grasp the specific benefits of different hobbies mentioned in
the text.
3. find out how to keep balance between different hobbies.
4. reflect on your own hobbies and explain how these hobbies
help you.
Work Hard, Play Hard
It can be hard to make time for a hobby when we have many important things to do. But hobbies might be more important than you think.
Physical hobbies like going hiking or playing tennis can help you to stay healthy. They keep you fit, and they can even lower stress and improve your memory and concentration. Other types of hobbies can also keep us healthy. Some scientists believe that making music can lower our blood pressure and make our body stronger.
This makes it harder for us to fall sick. Playing an instrument also keeps our brains young. So, if you think that playing the guitar is a waste of time, remember that this hobby is actually a great way to stay healthy!
Hobbies are also good for your emotional well-being. Creative hobbies like painting or writing can help you deal with negative emotions by giving you a way to express how you feel. They can even make you feel good about yourself! In one study, after just 45 minutes of making art, most of the participants reported feeling more confident in themselves!
However, while hobbies have many benefits, it is important to find the right balance. Playing computer games or chatting online may be fun, but such hobbies usually involve a lot of screen time. That could cause problems such as eye strain or poor sleep. These activities are also usually done alone, and that could cause some people to feel lonely. Why not choose an outdoor hobby instead Fresh air, green spaces, peace and quiet—these things help us to relax and feel good. And if you go hiking or fly a kite in the park, you can take a friend with you! Hanging out with friends reduces loneliness and can be a good way to build relationships.
Regardless of what your hobby is, it is important to make time for it. After all, all workand no play makes Jack a dull boy!

Discuss the questions.
1. What are the two main ways in which hobbies can be good
for us
Hobbies can be good for us physically and emotionally.
2. Why might some people think that “playing the guitar is a
waste of time”
Because they think it takes up time that could be used for studying, and they don’t see how playing guitar helps with their schoolwork.
3.What does the writer mean by “it is important to find the
right balance”
The writer means although the hobbies are beneficial, we should not overdo certain types of hobbies. We should choose hobbies appropriately to avoid some problems.
4. What do you think “All work and no play makes Jack a dull
boy”means Do you agree
It means if a person only focuses on work or study and never takes time for hobbies, he or she will become boring.

I have many free-time activities, like painting, writing poems, and reading. But my favourite free-time activity is horse riding.
When I was six, I visited my grandfather's farm, and he took me to ride a horse. It was such an amazing experience! Now I do it at his farm every weekend with my favourite horse, Nini.
I love horse riding because I enjoy being in nature. Horse riding also helps me stay fit. But most importantly, it lets me spend time with Nini! She's my best friend. She's happy to see me whenever I visit, especially when I bring her some carrots for a snack! I'm lucky to have her in my life.

Sample Writing
I have lots of free-time activities, such as playing basketball, listening to music, and drawing. But my favourite free-time activity is skateboarding.
Last summer holiday, I saw some kids skateboarding in the park. They looked so cool, so I tried it. It was really fun! Now I do it on weekends. I usually go to the skate park. Sometimes, I also skate on smooth sidewalks near my home.
I love skateboarding because it improves my balance. When I stand on the skateboard, I have to keep myself steady. Also, it helps me make friends. There are many other skateboarders at the park, and we often talk about skateboarding skills. What's more, when I learn new tricks, I feel a great sense of achievement. Skateboarding makes my free time wonderful!(共10张PPT)
