Step 1 Members of sentences
1. What makes a sentence? [PPT4]
2. Identify the subjects and the predicates of the following sentences. [PPT5]
3. Members of sentences [PPT6]
To be specific, the members of sentences include S(subject 主语), P(predicate or predicate verb 谓语或谓语动词)，O（object 宾语），C(complement 补语)，A(attribute 定语)，A(adverbial 状语)， A(appositive 同位语)。
Step 2 Simple sentences
1. Study the following six sentences and find out how many subject and predicate each sentence has. [PPT7]
2. structure of the simple sentence: subject + predicate [PPT8]
3. Use the terms of members of sentences mentioned above to identify the sentence patterns.
4. Put the following words into sentences according to the sentence pattern required in the brackets. [PPT10]
Step 3 Compound sentences
1. Study the following 7 sentences and find out how they are different from simple sentences.
2. The structure of compound sentence:
3. Practice
Step 4 Complex sentences
1. Compare the following two sentences and tell the structures of them. [PPT17]
2. Activity: Find complex sentences from the text. [PPT21]
Divide the students into groups of four and hold a competition to see which group can find the most complex sentences in 2 minutes. (The group can divide the text into 4 parts and each member search in one part to speed up.)
Step 5 Complex-compound sentences
1. Study the following sentence and try to work out its structure. [PPT22]
We have tried to train the young people who were hired last month,
subordination
but they are not doing their best to learn.
coordination
Sometimes we have complex-compound sentences. This happens when coordination and subordination occur in the same sentence.
The complex-compound sentence: the simple sentence + and/but/or + the complex sentence
Step 6 Consolidation
1. Revise the general structure of sentences: [PPT24]
2. Ask Ss to do Exercise A on P57 individually. And then check answers. [PPT25]
3. Ask Ss to do Exercise B on P57. Check answers. [PPT26, 27]
