语法建议

教材分析
本单元的对话主要是简单地介绍自己的表达语如：I’m…,I do及询问对方意愿What do you plan to next? 和表达自己意愿及希望 I plan….., I wish that….的交际用语。阅读课主要是了解电影喜剧大师查理·卓别林的生平和他的电影。本单元使用的词汇较为丰富如：direct, act, set off, appearance, bring up ,honor, as if, intend。非限制性定语从句中关系代（副）词的使用，是本单元的重点语法项目。
重点知识讲解
1. be known for, be known as 和 be known to
be known for=be famous for意为“因……而出名”，介词for表示原因。
Guilin is known for its beautiful scenery.
be known as=be famous as 意为“作为……而出名”，介词as指主语的身份或名称。
Mr. Zhang is known as an English teacher.
be known to 意为“为（某人）所知或熟悉”，介词to后接人。
As is known to all, she is always ready to help others. 众所周知，她总是乐于助人。
2. search, search for 和 in (one’s) search for/ of
search= try to find by looking, 意为“搜寻”、“搜查”。search的宾语一般是被搜查的人或某一场所，而不是所要寻找的东西。
The policeman searched the thief to see what he had in his pockets.那个警察对小偷搜身，看他口袋里有什么东西。
search for相当于look for。search for的宾语一般为要找的东西，而不是被搜查的人或场所。
The villagers were searching for the missing boy. 村民们正在寻找那失踪的男孩。
注意：I search a place for a person= search a person in a place, 意为“在某地搜寻某人”。
in (one’s) search for 和 in search of都意为“寻找”、“寻求”，在句中既可作状语，也可作表语。注意两个短语介词的搭配，如果名词search前带有限定词a，the或one’s，后面一般用介词for，如果search前不带限定词，后面一般用介词of。
The husband joined the wife in her search for the unknown element(元素).
