二、重点与难点

L.53

1. I feel like going to a museum . 我想去参观博物馆。

此句中的短语动词feel like作“想(做某事)”、“愿意”、“感到象是……样子”解,它表示主观上的想法,后面跟名词或动名词形式。例如:

I’m hungry , I feel like eating something . 我饿了,我想吃点什么东西。

She didn’t feel like going to see a film that moment , for she had too much homework to do .

那时她不想去看电影,因为她有许多作业要做。

Do you feel like coffee or soft drink ? 你想喝咖啡还是饮料?

表示“想要做某事”的意思时,本课中还出现了 “would like to do sth” “plan to do sth”和would rather do sth .例如:

I’d like to visit the History Museum . 我想参观历史博物馆。

What are you planning to do this Sunday ? 你打算星期日做什么?

I’d rather stay at home . 我宁愿呆在家里。

2.So far as I know , it’s free . 据我所知,那个博物馆是不收门票的。

a)句中的so / as far as I know作插入语,与句子中的其它部分关系不密切,通常用逗号分开,其意思是“就我所知”。另外,so / as far as通常引出一个分句,意思为“就……而言”,“尽……”,“至于……”,“到某种程度”。例如:

So / As far as I know , we won’t be late , because we have plenty of time .

就我可知我们是不会晚的,因为我们有足够的时间。

As far as he is concerned , he can’t offord such an expensive car .

就他而言,他买不起如此昂贵的车。

He promised to help me as far as he could . 他答应要尽力地帮助我。

b)此句中的free意思是“免费的”,“免税的”。例如:

It’s free of charge and you don’t need to pay it .

这是免费的,因此你不必付钱。

Does everyone in this country enjoy free medical care ?

这个国家的每个人都享受免费医疗吗?

3.Personally , I’d rather go to the Science Museum .

就我个人来说,我倒想去科学博物馆。

此处的personally是副词,意思是“就自己而言”,“就个人来说”,相当于Speaking for myself或as far as I am concerned . 例如:

Personally , I agree with you . 就我个人来说,我还是赞同你的。

She said she disliked it , but personally I thought it was worth buying .

她说她不喜欢这个东西,但就我个人来说,我认为值得买下来。

除此之外,personally一词还有“亲自地……”之意。例如:

The headmaster personally showed the guests around the school .

校长亲自带领来宾们参观了学校。

4. They’ve got a special exhibition on this month .

他们这个月将举办一个特别的展览会。

在此句中,have got…on相当于have…on的意思,作“有(某项活动)在进行”解,这里的副词on有“(某事)在发生或展示”的意思。例如:

What’s on tonight ? 今晚有什么活动?

I’ve nothing on tonight ? 我今晚没什么活动。

I’m sorry I didn’t attend your party that night because I had a meeting on for that night .

对不起,那天晚上我没有参加你的聚会,因我有个会。

L.54

1. To escape the pull of the earth , a rocket must reach a speed of 28.4400 km / h .

为摆脱地球的引力,火箭的速度达到每小时四万公里。

a)句中的To escape the pull of the earth是动词不定式结构,在句中作目的状语,其作用同于In order to escape the pull of the earth .例如:

To master / In order to master English , you must practise every day .

为了精通英语,你应该每天练习。

He worked day and night to finish his papers ahead of time .

为了提前完成论文,他日夜地工作。

b)这里要注意的是动词escape的用法,作为及物动词用时,后面跟名词或动名词;作为不及物动词用时,后面跟介词from,再加方位名词。例如:

It is reported that two of the prisoners have escaped . 据报道两个囚犯逃跑了。

A tiger escaped from the zoo . 一只老虎从动物园跑了出来。

How can we escape the crowds ? 我们如何避开人群?

Those who break the law will not escape being punished .

触犯了法律的人是逃脱不了惩罚的。

c)pull一词在句中作名词用,意思是“吸引力”,同gravity。例如:

It’s not easy to break away from the pull of the earth .

要摆接吻地球的吸引力不是那么容易的。

作动词用时,它还用“拉”,“托”,“拔”的意思。

Let’s go to the yard and pull up weeds . 咱们到院子里去拔草吧。

d)at a speed of表示“以……单位速度”,这时后面加速时的单位,speed一词前面加不定冠词。例如:

The car travels at a speed of 90 miles an hour .

小汽车以每小时80英里的速度行驶。

又如:You’ll find it’s a beautiful painting if you enjoy it at a distance of 3 metres .

如果你站在三米的距离以外来欣赏这幅画,你就会觉得这是一幅漂亮的画。

The plane is flying at a height of 10,000 metres .

飞机正在10,000米的高空飞行。

2.First , it must be light , the lighter the better , because it has to be sent up into space by a rocket .

首先,它必须很轻,越轻越好,因为卫星得用火箭把它送入太空。

“the lighter the better” 在句中是插入语,而且这是一个省略结构,全句应是这样的,

The lighter the satellite is , the better it will be .这种结构为:the + adj / adv .的比较级 + the + adj / adv .的比较级,表示“越……,就越……”的意思。例如:

The more you read , the more you know . 你读得越多,就知道的越多。

The more the better . 越多越好。

The sooner the better . 越快越好。

The higher it flies . the smaller it appears .它飞得越高,就显得越小。

3.It has equipment for making electricity from sunshine , using very broad sun panels .

它有太阳能发电设备,用的是很宽大的太阳能电池帆板。

a)句中的make…from…的意思是“用……制成……”。它常可以用于波动结构,例如:

I made a table from this kind of material . (The table was made from this kind of material .)

我用这种材料做了一张桌子。

My mother made me a shirt from the material I didn’t like .

我妈妈用我不喜欢的面料给我做了一件衬衣。

b)equipment一词是不可数名词。如以下各句中:

A new factory with modern equipment will be built here .

在这里将要建一个具有现代化设备的工厂。

Radar equipment helps us a lot in our daily life .

雷达装置在日常生活中颇有用处。

c)using very broad sun panels结构是~ing短语形式,其作用是在句中用作方式状语,修饰making electricity from sunshine。例如:

We Chinese eat our food , using chopsticks , while the westerners eat their food , using forks and Knives .

我们中国人用筷子吃东西,而西方人用刀子和叉子。

4.Once the satellite goes into its orbit round the earth , the panels are unfolded in order to catch the sunshine .

一旦卫星进入地球转产,帆板就打下来吸收阳光。

a)once在句中是连词,引导一个时间状语从句,相当于as soon as…,在这种从句中,也不用将来时态,而只用一般时或完成时。例如:

Once I decide to do something , I’ll try my best to do it well .

一旦我决定做什么事,我一定会尽力去把它做好。

Once we have gathered enough proof , we can accuse him at the court .

我们一旦得到足够的证据,我们就可以在法庭上指控他。

A decision shouldn’t be changed once it is made .

一旦作出了决定,就不应当改变它。

另外,once还可以用作副词,作“一次”,“曾经一度”;“过去”解。例如:

I go to see my grandparents once a week . 我每星期去看我的祖父母一次。

The song was once very popular . 这首歌曾经一度很流行。

b)动词unfold (展开),它和fold (折叠)是一对反义词。例如:

She opened the letter , unfolded it and than read it .

她拆开信封,把信折开然后读了起来。

After reading the letter , she folded it and put it in the envelope again .

读完信之后,她把信叠好,又放入信封。

在英语中,有不少动词可以用加前缀un- , dis- 的方法,构成词义相反的词。如:

lock (上锁) unlock (开锁) like (喜欢) dislike (厌恶)

dress (穿衣服)undress (脱衣服) appear (出现)disappear (消失)

5.They remain above the same place on the earth and travel round it in a very high circle .

它们(卫星)保持在地面上周一位置的上方,在高空中环绕地球运行。

句中的circle一词是作为名词用的,它还可以用作动词。名词时其意为“圆”,“圈”,而作动词时,则作“环绕”,“传播”解。例如:

The children were standing in a circle , playing games .

孩子们站成一个圈,做游戏。

The teacher asked his students to use their compasses to draw circles .

老师要求学生们用圆规画圆。

He is well known in bussiness circle and has a large circle of friends .

他在商界是知名人士而且也有很多朋友。

The moon circles the earth every 28days . 月亮每28天绕地球一圈。

The plane circled the airport before landing . 飞机着陆前围绕机场盘旋。

The news circled round very quickly . 这消息很快就传开了。

6.It is possible to say not only what the weather is like at present , but also what is likely to happen in the next day or two .

因此,它不仅可以报告当前的天气情况,而且可以预报未来一两天内天气可能会发生的情况。

a)It is possible to say…是一个由it作形式主语的句子,真正的主语是不定式to say…,随后的两个what-clause都是不定式to say的宾语从句,由not only…but also (不仅……而且……)连接。

b)What is likely to happen…中的likely为表语形容词,意思是“很可能的”,后面常跟不定式短语,其结构是:be likely to do sth。例如:

Tom is likely to win the game . 汤姆很可能会获胜。

The volcano is likely to break out . 这座火山可能会爆发。

He is not likely to do it by himself . 他不大可能独自做这件事。

c)句中的介词短语at present意思是“现在”,“目前”,相当于now一词。例如:

I don’t need any help at present . 我目前还不需要任何帮助。

We’re getting along quite well at present . 我们目前相处得还不错。

需要注意的是present一词,它既可作形容词(在场的,出席的),又可作名词(礼物)和动词(介绍,引见,赠予),但作动词时的读音则为 [pri’zent]。例如:

Were you present at the meeting yesterday ? 你出席昨天的会议了吗?

Most of the people present were for the decision . 大多数在场 的人都赞成这一决定。(当present一词作定语时,放在被修饰的名词之后,而不能放在其前面。)

I got a lot of presents on my birthday . 在我生日那天我收到了许多礼物。

The book was a present from my brother . 这本书是哥哥赠送给我的。

They presented a sum of money to the school where they studied years ago .

他们向多年前曾经就读的学校赠送了一笔款项。

Allow me to present my friend to you . 请允许我把我的朋友介绍给你。

7.Ships and planes can be warned so that they can keep out of the path of the hurricane .

可以给船只和飞机发出警报,使它们能够避开飓风经过的路线。

此句中的短语动词keep out of意为“不牵涉进去”,“不要惹事”,“避开”(stay away from something bad)。例如:

Children are warned to keep out of the water . 警告孩子们离开水域。

Do keep out of the rain if you haven’t a raincoat . 没带雨衣那就避一下雨。

Mother asked Bill to keep out of trouble while she was away .

妈妈警告比尔在她外出时不要惹麻烦。

L.55

1.Today there are more than 100 nations in this group and dozens of satellites have been put into space .

今天这个集团已拥有200多个成员国,数十枚卫星已经被送入太空。

句中的dozen为名词,意为“一打”(相当于a set of twelve),常用作单复同形,尤其在基数词后。例如:

I bought two dozen pencils . 我买了两打铅笔。

I’d like to buy a dozen eggs . 我想买一打鸡蛋。

注意:在这二个句子中,dozen不加s,后面也不用of。但如果dozen后面有these , those , them , us等词时,dozen之后就要用of。例如:

Two dozen of them have passed the exam 他们中的二十四个人考试及格了。

另外,dozen表示不确切的多数时,其后加s,并用of,构成了词组dozens of…

这时表示的是一个较模糊的数的概念。例如:

Every morning several dozens of people gather in the park to do morning exercise .

每天清晨好几十人聚集在公园进行晨炼。

I’ve been to the Great Wall dozens of times . 我去过长城许多次了。

2.They can tell the difference between healthy plants and plants that are diseased .

它们(摄像机)还可以识别健康植物和患病植物之间的差异。

a)动词tell在本句中的意思是“区分”,“分清”。例如:

I can’t tell the difference between margarine and butter .

我尝不出人造黄油和黄油有什么区别。

Can you tell Tom from his twin brother ?

你能分辨出汤姆和他的孪生兄弟吗?

另外,“tell…from…”也是“说出”,“分清……和……的区别”的意思。例如:

Colour-blind people can’t tell red from green .

患有色盲的人分不清红色和绿色。

The twins are so much alike that it’s impossible to tell one from the other .

这对双胞胎非常相像,几乎不可能把他们分辨出来。

b)在这个句子中,that are diseased是定语从句,修饰先行词plants。而这个定语从句中的diseased是形容词,在从句中作表语,其意为“有病的”,“病态的”。例如:

The tree in front of the house is diseased and it must be cut down .

房前的这棵树有病,必须将其砍掉。

She is not only diseased in body but also in mind . 她身心都有毛病。

3.The problem with looking into space from the earth is that there is a lot of dust in the earth’s air .

从地球上观察太空存在一个问题,这就是地球的大气中有着大量的尘埃。

a)句中的介词短语looking into space from the earth在句中作定语,修饰名词problem,介词with在句中的意思是“就……来说。”例如:

But with them the situation is quite different . 就他们来说,情况就大不一样了。

The chief difficulty with these men was that they were old .

这些人的主要困难是年纪太大了。

b)look into这一短语动词是“观察”,“窥视”的意思。例如:

He looked into the room , but saw nothing .

他们朝房间里看了看,但是什么也没看见。

另外,look into还有“调查”,“了解”,“研究”的意思。例如:

We’ll look into the matter together . 我们将一起调查这件事。

Perhaps you wouldn’t mind looking into it for me ?

也许你不介意帮我了解一下这事吧?

He said he was looking into the possibility of buying a house .

他说他正在研究买房的可能性。

4.The dusty air makes it difficult to get a clear picture of space .

充满尘埃的大气给拍摄太空的清晰图象造成了困难。

在这个句子中含有一个带有it作为形式宾语的复合结构,这就是make it difficult to get a clear picture,而真正的宾语则是动词不定式短语to get a clear picture .

英语中有些及物动词,其后要求跟复合宾语时,都可以跟一个带形式宾语it的复合结构;这些动词有find , suppose , think , make , consider等。而在这种复合结构中,往往有一个形容词或名词作宾语补足语。例如:

I. consider it great honour to have been invited to such an important meeting .

我认为被邀参加如此重要的会议是极大的荣幸。

He found it rather difficult to work the problem out without any help .

他觉得没有任何帮助而解决这一难题是相当困难的。

Children should make it a rule to wash hands before meals .

孩子们应当有一个规矩,就是用餐前要洗手。

He’s such a strange person that we all find it hard to get along with him .

他这人很怪,因此我们觉得很难与他相处。

II. Grammar语法

The attributive Clause定语从句

这里着重复习一下关于“介语+关系代词”引导的定语从句。指人用关系代词whom , 指物用关系代词which。whom和which都是介词的宾语。例如:

This is the room in which he lives .= This is the room where he lives .

第二句中的where是关系副词,而第一句中的in which = where,介词in在前时,关系代词which不能省略,也不能用that代替。上面的句子也可以改写成:

This is the room (which / that) he / lives in .

从这句子中可以看出介词in在后时,关系代词用which或that均可,且都可以省略。请看下面二组句子,1)中的句子是错误的,而2)中的则是正确的。

1)The earth on where we live is a big ball .

The earth where we live on is a big ball . 我们所居住生活的地球是球状的。

The earth on that we live is a big ball .

2)The earth on which we live is a big ball .

The earth which we live on is a big ball .

The earth that we live on is a big ball .

The earth we live on is a big ball .

The earth where we live is a big ball .
