二、重点与难点
L.45
1. We need to find one about 30 centimeters (cm) by 30cm by 50cm .
我们需要找一个大约30公分宽、50公分长的水箱。
句中的30cm by 30cm by 50cm是体积的表示法，其中介词by表示“用……去乘”的意思，分别表示宽、高、长的长度。例如：
I want to buy a cage 1.5m by 1.5m by 3m.
我想买一个1.5米宽、1.5m高、3m长的笼子。
另外，句中的体积表示法也可以写出1.5m×1.5m×3m
2. Check the prices before you decide whether to buy one .
要看好价格，然后再决定买不买。
句中的whether to buy one是疑问词+不定式结构，作及物动词的宾语。在此“whether”作“是否”解，在这种结构中，不能用if代替（if to buy one是错误的）。例如：
We haven’t decided whether to have a party .
我们还没决定是否举行一次聚会。
They didn’t tell us when to paint the house .
他们没告诉我们什么时候粉刷房屋。
The worker showed us how to operate the machine .
这位工人告诉我们怎样操作这台机器。
3. For one thing they keep the water clean . Also they make the tank look much prettier .
一则它们（水下植物）可以使水保持清洁，再则他们可以便水箱看起来漂亮些。
a)句中的for one thing意思是“首先”，“一则”，用来举出理由，常用在For one thing…，for another…或For one thing…Also…这种结构中，意思为“一则……，再则……”或“首先……，其次……”。例如：
I can’t stay here for long . For one thing , I’ve no time . For another , I’ve no money .
我不能在此逗留太久。首先，我没时间，其次，我没有钱。
I think she’s fit for the job . For one thing , she dances . Also she’s fond of singing .
我认为她适合这个工作。一则她会跳舞，再则她喜欢唱歌。
b)keep在句中是“使……保持”的意思，make是“使／让……”的意思，在这二个词的后面都跟复合宾语（宾语+宾语补足语）。在本句中，keep后面的复合宾语是“名词+形容词”（keep the water clean）；而make后的复合宾语是“名词+不带to的不定式”（make the tank look prettier）。例如：
Good food keeps you healthy .
好的食物能使你保持健康。
Please keep the room clean .
请保持室内清洁。
He made his parents happy .
他使他的父母高兴。（这是跟“名词+形容词”的复合宾语。）
They made the child cry .
他们把孩子给弄哭了。
L.46
1. The manager of the zoo said that the young lion , which was born in the zoo and is now six months old , would probably not attack people .
动物园的经理说，幼狮是在动物园出生的，只有六个月，很可能不会咬人。
a)这是一个主从复合句，其中的主句是“The manager of the zoo said”，其后跟了一个由that补导的宾语从句“that the young lion…would probably not attack people”，而在这一从句中，又插入了一个非限定性定语从句“which was born…six months old”，来修饰先行词the young lion .
b)句中的副词probably作“或许”，“可能”解，是most likely（很可能）的意思。所学过的类似的副词有：possibly , maybe , perhaps。另外还有形容词likely，也有很可能的意思。这些词都表示可能性，但在程度上和用法上稍有不同。perhaps作“或许”解，含有“也许如此”，“也许不如此”的意味，它和possibly的意味相似，但possibly通常与情态动词can , may , must等词连用。例如：
Perhaps it is true .／It may possibly be true .这也许是真的。
△Maybe也作“或许”解，同perhaps的意思接近，但比perhaps更为普通，它是英国英语，而maybe是美国英语。例如：
Perhaps it is true .／Maybe it is true .这或许是真的。
△probably也是“或许”、“可能”的意思，它比perhaps和possibly所表示的可能性大。例如：
They will perhaps succeed .／They may possibly succeed .
这二句语的意思是“他们或许会成功。”其中含有“不会成功”的意思较多。
但下面这个句中表达的意思则是含有“会成功”的意思较多。例如：
They will probably succeed .他们很可能会成功。
△而形容词likely也有“很可能的意思，大体上和probable同义，但比probable更为多用。在用法上他们也是有些不同的。likely后面常跟动词不定式式（be likely to do sth .）；而probable之后通常不跟不定式。例如：
He is likely to come .
他很可能会来。
在这外句子中，likely不可用probable代替。但在下面的句子中，probable却可以代替likely。例如：
It is likely that he’ll come .／It is probable that he’ll come .
2. Anyone who sees the lion is asked to telephone the zoo and the police .
无论谁看到这头狮子请打电话给动物园和警察。
句中的anyone who相当于whoever。anyone为代词，意思是“任何人”，“无论何人”。
例如：I didn’t see anyone . 我没见到任何人。
Does anyone know the answer ? 有人知道答案吗？
请注意区别anyone与any one。anyone是代词，作“任何人”解；any one可起形容词的作用，也可起代词的作用，意思是“任何一个的”，“任何一个人（一件事）”。
另外any one后可接of短语，而anyone则不可以接of短语。例如：
I didn’t ask anyone to help me with the work .
我没有请任何人帮忙。
I didn’t ask any one of them to help me with the work .
我没有请他们中的任何一个人帮忙。
3. Mrs Cousins was making a lot of noise with the pans and did not hear anything unusual .
卡曾斯太太摆弄锅盘的响声很大，所以她没听见有什么特殊的动静。
句中的noise一词的意思是“声音”，尤指喧闹声，噪音。make a noise作“喧嚷”、“吵闹”、“发出噪音”解。例如：
Don’t make so much noise .／Don’t make such a loud noise . The baby is sleeping .
别这么吵闹，小婴儿正在睡觉。
我们学过表示“声音”的词还有：voice和sound，表示“声音”时，这三个词可以通用。例如：
I heard a voice／sound／noise .
我听到了一个声音。
但是它们分别又各有特定的含义。
△noise作“噪音”、“嘈杂声”、“吵闹声”，主要指不悦耳，不和谐的声音，它既可作可数名词，也可作不可数名词。例如：
Noise is another kind of pollution .
噪音是另外一种污染。
Very loud noise can make people ill , or even drive them mad .
很大的噪音可以使人得病，甚至使人发狂。
△voice多指人发出的声音，包括说话声，歌声或笑声，有时也用于引申的意义，作“意见”、“发言权”解。例如：
They boy shouted at the top of his voice .
那男孩高声呼叫。
I’m sorry I didn’t recognize your voice .
对不起，我没听出来你的声音。
She has a sweet voice .
她的声音甜美。
I’ve no voice in the matter .
对于这件事，我无发言权。
△sound含义最广，指可以听到的任何声音。例如：
a weak sound微弱的声音，a strange sound奇怪的声音，the sound of music音乐之声。
I heard a strange sound outside .
我听到外面有一种奇怪的声音。
He went upstairs , without a sound .
他悄悄地上了楼。
4. She was just about to open the window and shouted at the dog to frighten it , when she stopped and stood quite still .
她正准备打开窗户，大声吓唬一下那条狗，这时她突然停住了，站着一动也不动。
a)句中的be about to do sth表示“即将做某事”，“马上就要做某事”，“正要做某事”。例如：
Don’t go out now . we’re about to have lunch .
现在不要出去，我们就要开饭了。
We were just about to leave when you telephoned .
我们正要离开时，你来电话了。
这里需要注意的是，about常与when搭配使用，这时其句子的特点是英语主从关系和汉语的主从关系恰好相反，比如上面的这个句子，英语中when you telephoned是时间状语从句，而汉语句中则是主句，而we were about to leave在英语中是主句，汉语中却成了从句。又如：
I was about to start when it began to rain .
我正要动身，就开始下雨了。
b)句中的when是连词，连接两个并列的分句，意思是“届时”，“在那时”，“……然后”，必要时在when的从句之前加逗号。例如：
I was about to go to bed last night , when I heard a cry for help .
昨晚我正要睡觉时，突然听到了呼救声。
My friend Jack came to see me , when I had dinner .
我的朋友杰克来看我，那时我正在吃晚饭。
c)句中的stood quite still短语中stood可以看作是系动词，后面跟的是形容词still作表语，意思是“静止的”，“不出声的”。to stand still相当于to remain unmoving and silent，用以说明句子中的主语所处于某种状态。类似的动词还有sit , lie，在这些词后也可以跟形容词作表语，对句子的主语进行描述。例如：
He stood still , watching the old people playing chess .
他站在那儿一动也不动，观看着老人们下棋。
He lay awake , thinking about changing his job .
他毫无睡意地躺着，考虑要换个工作。
She sat still , waiting for their decision .
她坐着不动，等候他们的决定。
5. At that very moment , the animal bent over the baby .
就在那一刹那，狮子俯身看着婴儿。
a)句中的very是形容词，用来加强语气，作“正好”，“就在”，“正是”解。例如
That’s the very thing I’m after .
那正是我在追求的东西
This is the very man we have been talking about .
这个人正是我们在谈论的（那个）人。
b)动词bend意为“弯腰”，“曲身”，“屈服”，与over一起构成短评动词相当于turn over , lean to the ground，例如：
The tall man bent to listen to the little boy .
那位高个子男人弯下腰来听小男孩讲话。
I can’t bend before them .
我不能向他们屈服。
He stopped and bent over to tie his shoes .
他停下来，弯腰系鞋带。
6. Mrs , Cousins held her breath , and her whole body went cold .
卡曾斯太太屏住呼吸，全身发冷。
a)句中的短语hold one’s breath意思是“屏住呼吸”，“不出声”。例如：
How long can you hold your breath for ?
你能屏住呼吸多久？
The audience held their breath as the acrobat walked along the tightrope .
杂技演员走钢丝时，观从们都屏住了呼吸。
b)句中的went（go为原形）作系动词用，意思是“变得”（同become），cold是形容词，作表语，说明主语发生的变化。类似的系动词还有：fall , get , turn等。例如：
Eggs are easy to go bad in summer .
在夏天，鸡蛋容易变坏。
It’s getting dark , let’s stop working .
天快黑了，咱们停止工作吧。
The leaves of the trees turn green when spring comes .
当春天来临时，树叶就变绿了。
Before liberation , he often went hungry .
解放前，他经常挨饿。
Has anything gone wrong with the machine ?
机器出什么毛病了吗？
7. Worse still , it could even carry off the baby in its mouth .
更糟的是，狮子甚至可能把婴儿叼走。
句中的worse still是“更糟糕的是……”，同于what’s worse .这是形容词词组构成的插入语，用来作补充说明，插入语后面通常用逗号同句子的其它成分分开。例如：
Lots of trees were blown down , Worse still (What’s worse) , some people were killed or injured .
许多树木被风刮倒了，更糟糕的是，还死伤了一些人。
It was very cold last night . Worse still , it was snowing .
昨天晚上很冷，更糟的是，还下着雪。
8. There was not a moment to lose . ( = She had no time to waste .)
不能再耽误了。
There was not a moment to lose .
是一个固定的表达法，意思是“立即行动起来”，“一刻也不能耽误”。lose在这里作“耽搁”，“浪费时间”解。例如：
Hurry up , there’s not a moment to lose .
快点，一刻也不能耽搁了。
She’s very ill .Take her to the hospital and there’s not a moment to lose .
她病得不轻，快送她去医院，一刻也不能耽误。
9. The lion looked at her as she swung the pork in her hand so as to attrack the lion’s attention .
当她摇晃着手中的猪肉吸引狮子的注意力时，狮子看着她。
句中的attract是“吸引”，“引起注意”，“引起兴趣”的意思，（=draw）。例如：
The new film in going to attract a lot of visitors .
这部新影片会很受欢迎的。
The newly built museum began to attract a lot of visitors .
这座新建的博物馆吸引了不少参观者。
10. “Here ! Eat that !” she cried as she threw the leg of pork as far as she could onto the grass away from the table .
她一边尽可能地把猪腿扔到远离桌子的草地上，一边喊着，“喂，吃这个吧！”
a)句中的here，是感叹词，用来引起别人注意，译时比较灵活。例如：
Here , look at the beautiful picture !
喂，请看这张美丽的画片！
Here , don’t walk so quickly .
喂，别走那么快。
Here , give me a hand .
喂，请帮帮我。
b) as far as she could后面省略了动词throw，这是一个状语从句，相当于as far as possible（尽可能远）。
这二个结构是这样的：
as + adj.／adv. + as + one can .
as + adj.／adv. + as possible .
例如：
I shall come to see you as often as I can／possible .
我会尽可能常来看你。
I’ll try to work as hand as I can／possible .
我将尽可能地努力工作。
L.47
1. It’s not safe to go outside until it is caught .
在抓住它之前，外出是不安全的。
a)在这个句子中，句首的it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式短语to go outside，而第二个短语是人称代词，在这里代替的是the young lion。
b)在这里要注意的是句中not…until…的结构，其中的until相当于before的意思。这种结构的句子，翻译时可以译作“在……之前不……”，也可以译作“到……之后才……”。
如本课中的这句话还可以译作“抓住狮子之后，外出才是安全的。”请看下面的句子：
Don’t leave until I come back .
在我回来之前不要离开。（我回来之后再离开。）
We won’t do anything until we’ve thought it over .
在我们仔细考虑之前，我们不会做任何事情的。（在我们仔细考虑之后才会去做的。）

他妈妈回到家之后他才做功课。
2. Two keepers from the zoo came into the house and looked into the garden .
动物园的两位饲养员走进屋来，察看了一下花园里情况。
句中的动词短语look into的意思是“调查”，“研究”，“了解”的意思，但在本句中有“观察”，“调查”之意。例如：
We’ll look into this matter together .
我们将一起调查这件事。
The police are looking into the records of all those involved in the crime .
警察在查阅所有被牵扯到这个案子里的人的档案。
其实look into的本意是“向里面看”。例如：
Father said to his son , “look into the box and tell me what you see” .
父亲对儿子说：“朝箱子里面，然后告诉我你看到了什么”。
3. Walking slowly across the grass he pointed the pipe at the lion and fired .
慢慢地穿过草地，他把枪筒对准狮子，紧接着他就开枪了。
a)句首的walking slowly across the grass是～ing短语作状语 ，表示伴随的动作。这种～ing短语作状语时，可以放在句首也可以放在句末。
b)句中的point…at…是“把……对准”，“指向”的意思。另外point to的意思是“指”“指着”的意思。例如：
She was pointing her fingers at him .
她把手指指着他。
“Point the gun at the target” , the officer ordered .
军官命令道“把枪对准靶子”。
The hands of the clock pointed to ten .
钟表的指针指着十点。
It’s impolite to point your fingers at people .
用手指指人是不礼貌的。
4. The lion made a sudden angry noise and struggled to its feet .
狮子突然发出一声怒吼，挣扎着站了起来。
a)句中的make a noise是“发出响声”的意思，在noise一词之前可以加形容词或不定代词，如make a great noise（发出很大的响声），make a loud noise（发出闹声），make no noise（不发出声响）等。另外，noise一词可以是可数名词也可以是不可数名词。例如：
Don’t make any noise . The hildren are sleeping .
别吵闹，孩子们正在睡觉呢。
What’s that noise ?
那是什么响？
Who’s making those strange noises ?
谁弄出的那种怪声？
b)句中的struggle to one’s feet短语是“挣扎着站起来”的意思。动词struggle是“挣扎”，“奋力”，“作努力”，“斗争”的意思。例如：
The people were struggling to get out of the burning building .
人们奋力逃离出燃烧着的建筑物。
A bird was caught and was struggling to get free .
小鸟被捉并且奋力挣脱。
5. After a moment , it fell over and lay still .

小女孩摔倒了，碰了头。
He fell over a rock and hurt himself .
他跌倒在石头上并且受了伤。
