【Language points】
How do we communicate
communicate(v.交流;沟通);　 communicate with：与…… 交流；与…… 沟通 派生词: communication n.表达;交流 词组:communication skills(沟通技巧)
２.When will the man pick Jim up
pick up：开车接某人
...thanks for the helpful speech on communication.
①thanks for + 名词/动名词:用来表达 “因某事 / 做某事而感谢”，是口语和书面语中都非常常用的感谢句式。也可以说 thank you for...，语气更完整，二者含义一致。
例句：Thanks for your help. = Thank you for helping me.（谢谢你的帮助）
②介词 on 后接名词 communication（沟通），构成介词短语 on communication，作后置定语修饰 speech，表示 “关于沟通的演讲”。
辨析：on 和 about 都可表 “关于”，但 on 更正式，多用于学术、专业主题；about 更口语化，用于日常话题。
例句：a book on history（一本关于历史的书，偏学术）；a talk about pets（一个关于宠物的话题，偏日常）
4.Sometimes my friends and I argue but don't know how to make up.
①argue(动词) - argument(名词，争吵；争论)
词组:argue with sb(与某人争论);
argue about sth(为某事争论)
例句:They often argue with each other aboutsmallthings.
②疑问词（how/what/when等）+ 不定式（to do） 可以作动词的宾语，此处作 know 的宾语，相当于宾语从句 how we can make up。
例句：I don't know what to do. = I don't know what I should do.（我不知道该做什么）
③make up :此处表示 “和解、和好”，特指争吵后恢复友好关系。
make up 还有 “编造（谎言）”“化妆” 等含义，需根据语境判断。
例句：They argued yesterday, but they made up this morning.（他们昨天吵架了，但今天早上和好了）
5.What's the best way to communicate in this situation
①用法：the way to do sth 表示 “做某事的方式”，加上最高级 best 后，就是 the best way to do sth（做某事的最佳方式）。也可以说 the best way of doing sth，含义相同。
例句：The best way to learn English is to practice it every day.（学英语的最佳方式是每天练习）
②介词短语作状语：in this situation
用法：介词短语 in this situation（在这种情况下）在句中作状语，修饰动词 communicate（沟通），说明 “沟通” 这个动作发生的场景。
例句：In this situation, you should keep calm.（在这种情况下，你应该保持冷静）
Let me use the camera to show you around.
①祈使句结构：Let sb do sth
用法：let + 宾语（me/him等）+ 动词原形 是典型的祈使句，表 “允许 / 让某人做某事”，语气委婉。
注意：let 后接动词原形，不能加 to；其否定形式是 Let sb not do sth。
例句：Let her go home first.（让她先回家）
②不定式作目的状语：to show you around
用法：不定式短语 to show you around 用来说明 “用相机” 的目的，即 “为了带你参观”。
拓展：目的状语还可以用 in order to do 或 so as to do，语气更正式。
③show sb around：表示 “带领某人参观某地”，是固定搭配，代词作宾语时需放在中间（如 show you around）。
例句：He showed us around his new office.（他带我们参观了他的新办公室）
I understand, but meeting in person is not always easy.
①动名词短语作主语：meeting in person
用法：动词 meet 加 -ing 变成动名词，和介词短语 in person 构成动名词短语，作句子主语，谓语动词用单数形式（本句中是 is）。
例句：Reading in the sun is bad for your eyes.（在阳光下看书对眼睛不好）
②固定短语：in person，表示 “亲自、当面”，是副词性短语，在句中修饰动名词 meeting。
例句：You need to sign the paper in person.（你需要亲自签署这份文件）
Some of you may prefer texting, but it takes longer and can make things worse if you’re not careful with your words.
①情态动词表推测：may
用法：情态动词 may 后接动词原形，表 “可能、也许”，语气不确定，符合 “你们中的一些人可能更喜欢” 的语境。
②prefer doing sth，表 “更喜欢做某事”；也可接 to do，含义基本一致（prefer to do sth）。
例句：She prefers staying at home on weekends.（她周末更喜欢待在家里）
③固定搭配：be careful with sth 表示 “小心对待某物”。
But what if we argue more over the phone
①常用句型：what if...
用法：what if + 陈述句语序 是口语常用句型，表 “如果…… 怎么办？”，用于提出假设性问题。
例句：What if it rains tomorrow （如果明天下雨怎么办？）
②argue over sth 表示 “就某事争论”，over 强调争论的具体对象；也可使用 argue about sth，含义相同。
例句：They often argue over small things.（他们经常为小事吵架）
③over the phone：表示 “通过电话”，类似结构还有 on the phone（在打电话）、by phone（用电话）。
Susan, one of your classmates,invites you to her birthday party this weekend.
①invite sb to sp：表示 “邀请某人去某地”，to 后接地点名词；若接活动，直接用 invite sb to do sth（邀请某人做某事）。
例句：She invited me to her wedding.（她邀请我参加她的婚礼）
②invitation n.邀请
词组：accept an invitation:接受邀请
refuse an invitation：拒绝邀请
If the old man has difficulties in hearing,you can write things down for him.
①have difficulties in doing sth 表示 “做某事有困难”，介词 in 可以省略。
同义结构：have trouble (in) doing sth、have a hard time (in) doing sth。
例句：I have difficulties (in) learning math.（我学数学有困难）
②write down 表示 “写下、记下”，是 “动词 + 副词” 型短语动词；代词作宾语时，必须放在动词和副词中间（如 write it down），名词作宾语时可放中间或后面（write things down / write down things）。
But promise me you'll think about it seriously.
①宾语从句：you'll think about it seriously
用法：promise sb + 宾语从句 表示 “向某人承诺某事”，从句的引导词 that 可以省略；从句用一般将来时 will think，表承诺的未来动作。
②副词修饰动词：seriously
用法：副词 seriously（认真地）修饰动词短语 think about，放在短语后面；副词修饰动词时，通常放在动词或宾语之后。
例句：You should think about this problem carefully.（你应该认真思考这个问题）
The new season is coming, so it's time to make a plan for our training.
①常用句型：it's time to do sth
用法：表示 “到了做某事的时间了”，it 是形式主语，真正主语是不定式 to make a plan...；同义句型是 it's time for sth（如 it's time for training）。
②固定搭配：make a plan for sth
用法：表示 “为某事制定计划”，for 后接计划的对象。
Do you find it hard to havea conversation with a stranger
①形式宾语句型：find it + adj. + to do sth
用法：find 后接 it 作形式宾语，代替后面的不定式短语 to have a conversation with a stranger，形容词 hard 作宾语补足语；这样的结构可以避免句子 “头重脚轻”。
例句：I find it easy to learn English.（我发现学英语很容易）
②固定短语：have a conversation with sb
用法：表示 “和某人交谈”，同义短语有 have a talk with sb、talk with sb。
15.If you have such worries, it is time for you to learn some more conversation skills.
①such 修饰名词（短语），结构是 such + 名词（本句中是 such worries）；区分 so 修饰形容词 / 副词，结构是 so + adj./adv.（如 so worried）。
例句：She has such a beautiful dress. = Her dress is so beautiful.（她有一条如此漂亮的裙子）
②常用句型：it is time for sb to do sth
用法：表示 “到了某人做某事的时间了”，比 it's time to do sth 更强调动作的执行者（for you 强调 “你” 该学了）。
例句：It is time for us to start the meeting.（到我们开会的时间了）
16. One of the most important thingsis to listen to the person you speak to.
①one of + the + 形容词最高级 + 复数名词 表示 “最…… 的…… 之一”，是表达范围的常用结构。
主谓一致：该结构作主语时，核心词是 one（单数），因此谓语动词用单数形式（本句中是 is）。
例句：One of the tallest buildings in this city is the TV tower.（这座城市最高的建筑之一是电视塔）
②不定式短语 to listen to the person... 作系动词 is 的表语，用来解释主语 one of the most important things 的具体内容。
拓展：表语还可以用动名词，如 My hobby is reading.（我的爱好是阅读）
③定语从句省略引导词：you speak to
用法：you speak to 是省略了关系代词 who/whom/that 的定语从句，修饰先行词 the person。
省略条件：当关系代词在定语从句中作宾语时，可省略；补全后是 the person who/whom you speak to。
例句：The book (that) I bought yesterday is very interesting.（我昨天买的那本书很有趣）
17.However, it is impolite to ask someone's age,weight, or other personal information.
①形式主语句型：it is + adj. + to do sth
用法：it 是形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式短语 to ask someone's age...，用形式主语是为了避免句子 “头重脚轻”。
变形：本句可改写为 To ask someone's age... is impolite.（但这种表达不常用）
例句：It is necessary to finish homework on time.（按时完成作业很有必要）
② impolite　adj.不礼貌的;粗鲁的
反义词:polite(adj.礼貌的)
派生词:impolitely(adv.不礼貌地);

派生词:personally(adv.就个人而言;亲自);

例句: This is my personal computer.(这是我的个人电脑。)
18.Also, if you don't agree with others, don't argue with them. Just move on to another topic.

例句：If you agree with me, please raise your hand.（如果你同意我的观点，请举手）
②argue with sb：意为 “和某人争论”，是动词短语，with 后接争论的对象。
③move on to sth：意为 “继续转到某事 / 某物”，指结束当前话题，开始新的话题。
例句：Let's stop talking about this problem and move on to the next one.（我们别讨论这个问题了，继续下一个吧）
19. If you want to make the other person happy, mention his or her strong points.
①使役动词结构：make + sb + adj.
用法：make 是使役动词，意为 “使、让”，后接宾语 the other person，再加上形容词 happy 作宾语补足语，表示 “使某人处于某种状态”。
拓展：make 后还可接动词原形作宾补，如 My teacher made me clean the classroom.（老师让我打扫教室）
②strong points 意为 “优点、强项”，是名词短语，其反义词是 weak points（缺点、弱项）。
例句：Patience is one of her strong points.（耐心是她的优点之一）
20. But don't just pretend to be nice, because people can find out you are not telling the truth.
①pretend to do sth，表示 “假装做某事”，是固定搭配。
例句：He pretended to be asleep when his mother came in.（妈妈进来时，他假装睡着了）
②you are not telling the truth 是 find out 的宾语从句，省略了引导词 that；find out 意为 “发现、查明”，强调经过努力得到结果。
③tell the truth:讲实话
21.Stand up straight, smile, and be yourself-you have a lot to offer.
①be yourself 意为 “做自己、保持本色”，是口语中常用的表达，鼓励他人不要刻意伪装。
例句：Don't change for others—just be yourself.（不要为别人改变，做自己就好）

①work at sth 意为 “努力做某事、钻研某事”，强调付出持续的努力。
例句：If you work at your English, you will make progress.（如果你努力学英语，就会进步）
②“find + 宾语 + 宾语补足语” 结构

③much 用来修饰形容词比较级，加强程度，类似的词还有 a little, even, far 等。
例句：I find swimming much more interesting than running.（我发现游泳比跑步有趣得多）
【Grammar Focus】if引导的条件状语从句
语法概述:
在复合句中作条件状语的句子叫条件状语从句。 条件状语从句常用if来引导。If从句既可放在主句前，也可放在主句后。放在主句前，要用“,”与后面的主句隔开。
一.含条件状语从句的复合句中主从句的时态
主句为以下情况之一时，条件状语从句用一般现在时：
（1）主句是一般将来时。
If it doesn’t rain tomorrow, we will go to the zoo.
（2）主句谓语部分含有情态动词（may, might, can, must, should等）。
If you eat bad food, you may fall ill.
（3）主句为祈使句。
If the light is red, wait for a minute.
二. 有些句子可与含if的条件状语从句互相转换。
（1）祈使句 + and/or + 陈述句。
Hurry up, or you’ll miss the train.
= If you don’t hurry up, you’ll miss the train.
You will be healthier if you eat well.
= Eat well and you will be healthier.
（2）借助with或without。
You can’t drive the car with the door open.
= You can’t drive the car if the door is open.
If there is no water, fish will die.
= Fish will die without water.
