Discuss the questions with a partner.“Although the storm broke many things apart, it brought families and neighbors closer together.” What other can bring people closer together? How can we help each other in times of difficulty?Step 5 Language points1. With no light outside, it felt like midnight. 此句中介词with表示一种伴随状况，同时还包含着某种因果关系，表示“因某种状况的存在而导致”, 因此可翻译成“由于；因为”等。e.g. With my parents away, Im the king of the house. 我爸妈不在家，我可是家中的“王”了！ I cant work with all that noise going on. 由于那噪音响着，我无法工作。2. Bens dad while his mom was making sure the flashlights and radio were working. 1) 此句中的连词while的意思是 “当的时候；和同时”，while还可以表示“而；然而；但”之意，用来说明和强调两种事情或情形不同。e.g. Tom is active and outgoing while his sister Rosa is shy and quiet. 汤姆活跃外向，而他的妹妹罗莎却害羞腼腆。2) make sure“确认，查明，核实；确保；设法保证”，其后可接句子，或接介词of及宾语，用来引入需要确认的内容。e.g. Could you make sure what time hes arriving? 你能确认一下他几点到达吗？Make sure you turn off the TV before you leave the house. 在你离开屋子前确认关了电视。3) 此句中的work表示机器，器官等 “运作，运转”，这是动词work的一种基本用法。e.g. The radio doesnt work. 收音机坏了。3. Ben was helping his mom make dinner when the rain began to beat heavily againstthe window. beat作动词，可意为 “敲打；锤砸”。 如：The rain beat against the windows.beat作动词，可意为 “打败；取胜”。 如：I can easily beat him at golf. beat作动词，可意为 “(心)跳动”。如： Her heart beat so quickly that she could hardly breathe.4. It was hard to have fun with a serious storm happening outside.It is adj.+ to do sth. 做怎么样。It is adj. for sb. to do sth. 对某人来说做怎么样。e.g. It is important for us to learn English. 对我们来说学英语很重要。活学活用：1) 在街上踢球很危险。It is _ soccer on the street.2) 每天早上读书对你来说很有必要。It is _ for you _ in the morning.3) 对他来说完成作业很容易It is _ for him _.5. Ben could not sleep at first. He finally fell asleep when the wind was dying down at around 3:00 a.m. sleep可作动词，意为“睡觉”；它也可作名词，意为“睡眠；睡觉”。 如：The baby is sleeping. Please be quiet.I didnt get much sleep last night.asleep是形容词，意为“睡着”，强调状态，常作表语。fall asleep意为“进入梦乡；睡着”。如：My daughter was asleep with her head on her arms.He was so tired that he fell asleep at his desk.根据句意，用sleep或asleep填空。1) We _ very well every night.2) I need to get some _.3) He was _ the minutehe lay down.die down逐渐变弱；逐渐消失6. When he woke up, the sun was rising.rise v. & n. 做动词时，常用作不及物动词，意为“升起；增加；提高”。并且还有“起床”的意思。raise常用作及物动词，含有“(人为地)使升起；使提升”的意思，并且还有“筹集；饲养；抚养”的意思。根据句意选用raise或rise的适当形式填空。1) Tom _ his head when he heard the sound.2) The moon has not _ yet.3) My brother often _ at about 6:30 a.m.4) We _ money to help the sick girl yes
