　　Teaching procedures:

　　Step 1. Revision

　　Revise the expressions of conjecture. Get the students to give some examples of conjecture that we learnt before. The following are some lead-ins: It must be…  It can’t be…

　　Step 2. Presentation

　　SB Page 55, Part 1. Tell the students that we are going to learn a dialogue in which we will learn some expressions of Prediction, Conjecture and Belief.

　　Step 3. Listening

　　Play the tape for the students follow the dialogue. Tell the students to answer the questions in Wb Exercise 1. After the listening, some students are asked to answer the questions to the class.

　　Step 4. Reading and explanations

　　Now get the students to read the dialogue in pairs and underline the difficulties and the key points that they think.

　　It’s not like her to have missed two days of classes.

　　一两天不来上课，她不是这样的人。

　　〖剖析〗It’s (just) like sb to do sth “某人（恰恰）就是这个样子”，表示表扬或者不满，其否定式则表示怀疑。如：

　　It‘s like him to leave the work to others. 他就是把工作推给别人的人。

　　It was like him to fail us at the last minute. 他就是这样，在关键时刻让我们失望。

　　It’s just like her to think of others before thinking of herself. 她恰恰就是先人后己的人。

　　It isn‘t like him to have said anything like that .他可不是说出那种话的人。

　　It isn’t like her to have spent so much money. 花掉这么多钱，我看这不像她做得出来的事。

　　◆ 下面两句不一样：It‘s not like her to have missed two days of classes.

　　一两天不来上课，她不是这样的人。（不上课的事已经发生）

　　It’s not like her to miss two days of classes.

　　她不是那种两天不来上课的人。（并未发生过不上课的事，只是泛泛而谈）

　　◆ to have missed 是非谓语动词的完成式，表示动作早已完成。是高考测试中的重要知识点。又如：

　　① It isn‘t like him to have told a lie to the manager. 他不是给经理撒谎的那种人吧。

　　② I’m glad to have seen your headmaster yesterday .

　　③ He is said to have written a novel about the Long March. 据说他写了一本关于长征的小说。

　　④ They thought it a pity not to have invited them. 他们认为没有邀请他们是令人遗憾的。

　　⑤ I regretted to have missed such good chances . 我遗憾的是错过了这些好机会。
