Grammar Rules
现在完成时还可以表示从过去某一时间开始，一直持续到现在的动作或状态，常与for/since或how long连用。此时，谓语动词必须为延续性动词。
e.g. They have worked in this company for 30 years.
He has been in the army since 2016.
How long have you been friends
for & since用法
for后接时间段，表示动作从过去持续到现在的“时长”。
例如：for 3 days、for 2 hours、for 5 years、for a long time、for a while、for several weeks等。
e.g. We have waited for two hours.
He has owned this car for a decade.
since后接时间点，表示动作“从过去某一时间点开始”并持续到现在。 例如：since 2015(自2015年起)、since 9 o'clock (自9点起)、since he came here(自从他来这儿起)、since last summer(自从去年夏天起)、since childhood(自童年起)、since then(从那以后)
e.g. They have worked in this company since two years ago.
I have known her since we were in primary school.
It has rained since this morning.
延续性动词 & 非延续性动词
延续性动词表示可以持续一段时间的动作或状态，动作本身有延续性。在现在完成时中，与for 或since连用的动词必须为延续性动词。常见的延续性动词有 have，live，teach，learn，work，study ，know 等。
e.g. She has lived in London for 5 years.
They have studied English since 2020.
I have had this book for a month.
非延续性动词表示瞬间发生并立即结束的动作，动作无法持续，不能与表示时间段的状语(for/since)直接搭配使用。常见词汇 come，go，leave，start，die，finish，become，join，buy，get married 等。要表达延续性状态，要将非延续性动词转换为延续性动词。
e.g. 他入团两年了。
( × ) He has joined the League for two years.
( √ ) He has been a League member for two years.
这块手表我买了两年了。
( × ) I have bought this watch for two years.

非延续性动词可以转换为延续性动词。
非延续性动词 对应的延续性表达 例句

finish/stop have/has been over The parade has been over for 2 hours.
come/go/arrive have/has been in/at Kitty has been in HK for two days.

die have/has been dead The fish has been dead for some time.
e.g. I haven't bought any food since last week. The fridge is

Unusual Volunteers
"Come here! What a good boy!" Those were words I never expected to hear from my mum when I visited her in hospital. Mum has been sick for a long time now, and she often seemed sad and tired. I didn't
expect to hear her laughing. It has been a long time since I heard my mum sounding so happy! But when I rounded the corner, I understood everything.
Mum had a very unusual visitor-a dog!
A regular volunteer at the hospital, Anna, was there with her therapy dog, Banjo. Anna was kind enough to share her story with me. An animal lover from an early age, Anna has always had a dog or two at home since she was young. Often, just playing with them was enough to help her feel happy and relaxed after a long day. But one day, Anna realized that not everyone was lucky enough to have a pet. She started thinking:
What could she do Could she work with her own dogs to help others
Before long, she found the answer. Today, Anna and Banjo often visit places like hospitals and nursing homes to bring a moment of joy to people who are sick, sad, lonely, or disabled. Banjo has worked as a therapy dog for almost three years. When people are stressed, it often takes them longer to get better. A therapy dog helps people feel better and be less stressed, often just by being there! At the hospital, Mum
petted Banjo, gave him a snack, and even threw a small ball for him to catch. This made her forget that she was sick, if only for a moment.
For people like my mum, moments like this are very valuable. She always looks forward to my visits, but now she also looks forward to seeing Anna and Banjo again. If I'm lucky enough to have .a dog of my own in the future, I'll try to volunteer just like Anna and Banjo!
Read Linda's blog post. Who is likely to have said these things Write the correct names. Some names can be used more than once.

Who What they said
"I'm so happy Banjo and Anna visited my mum!"

1. How can therapy dogs help people to feel less stressed
Discuss the questions.
Therapy dogs can help people feel less stressed by providing companionship, letting people pet them, play with them, or just be around them. Their presence can distract people from their worries and bring a sense of joy and relaxation.
2. What qualities do you think a therapy dog should have
3. Can you think of any other ways to help people in hospital
A therapy dog should be friendly, gentle, patient, and calm. It should also be well-trained, sociable, and comfortable around different people and in various environments.
Other ways to help people in hospital include volunteering to read books to them, organizing small entertainment activities like magic shows or music performances, helping them contact their families or friends, and assisting with simple tasks like getting water or adjusting the bed.(共15张PPT)

1. get the main idea and the target information from the speech.
2. identify key features of a speech.

Rescue) and learn to express positive attitudes towards helping
others.
Look at the pictures of some Blue Sky Rescue volunteers and discuss the questions.
1. What do you think the volunteers in blue are doing
2. Have you heard any stories about Blue Sky Rescue
1a
Identifying the features of a speech
A speech can start with a hook to make the audience curious about what the speaker will say next. A story, an interesting fact, or even a question can be a hook. A speech can also include a call to action by encouraging people to do something.
Hook: A "hook" is like a magnet at the start of a speech. It grabs the audience’s attention
—make them think "Wow, I want to hear more!"
Call to Action: At the end, the speaker says "Hey, you! Do something!", like asking people to join, help, or change.
Read the speech by a Blue Sky Rescue volunteer. What kind of hook does the speaker use Which paragraph includes a call to action
The speaker uses a personal story hook.
The speaker shares his own experience of being rescued by Blue Sky Rescue in 2008, which grabs the audience’s attention by connecting emotionally and introducing the topic.

The last paragraph includes the call to action.

1. When did the speaker join Blue Sky Rescue Why did he join
the organization
2. What has he learnt from his volunteer experience
He joined Blue Sky Rescue in 2009. He joined it because in 2008, the team helped him and his hurt friend in the mountains. He was so thankful that he wanted to help others too.
He has learnt many practical life-saving skills, understood the power of teamwork (which is key to successful rescues), and realized the value of every life.
1d
3. What are some difficulties the Blue Sky Rescue volunteers face
4. Why is the speaker willing to put his life in danger
The work is very hard and they are not paid. They often don't have enough food or sleep and they often have to work in dangerous situations.
Because he wants to save as many people as possible, and he knows that to the people they’ve saved and their loved ones, they are heroes, which makes everything worth it.
5. What qualities do you think a Blue Sky Rescue volunteer should have
I think they should
be brave and smart to face danger.
be kind and selfless to help others.
have teamwork spirit.
be willing to learn new skills.
have a sense of responsibility.
be strong and never give up.
