对话练习
利用情境教学法引导学生创设语境，灵活操练语言点和语法项目，以培养语言的交际能力。学生的发散性思维有利于创造性的发展，而编写适合知识点的题目，并有益他们对知识点的巩固。只有手脑并用，才能全面提高学生听说读写的综合能力。
为了使学生能掌握一般过去时和现在完成时的不同用法，可以编些带有这两种时态的对话，让学生进行英汉互译的口笔头练习。下面的对话供参考：
1) Have they cleaned the room?
Yes, theyve already cleaned it.
When did they clean it?
They cleaned it an hour ago.
2) She has gone to London, hasnt she?
Yes, she has.
How did she go there?
She went there by plane.
3) Have you got Kates phone call?
Yes, Ive just got it.
What did she say?
She wanted me to ask you to call back.
以上对话中的有关单词和短语，可用替换词语，以增加练习量。
