一、教法建议
【抛砖引玉】
单元双基学习目标
Ⅰ. 四会单词和词组:have a seat , quarrel , long before , dare , upon , fasten , gun , again and again , blow (n .) , hall
三会单词和词组:personal , affair , relative , delay , pillow , nail , chest , pay … a visit , furniture , armchair , pet , doubt , silence , in silence , living room , strike , scream , snake , tiny , nephew , niece , connect to
Ⅱ. 交际英语:
1. I’m afraid I have to go now .
2. It is time sb + 动词的过去式
3. I hope you have a good journey back to …
4. It was nice to meet you .
5. Please remember me to sb请代我向……问好
6. I called to tell you that …
7. I’d like you to meet …
8. Thanks again for calling .
9. It is very kind of you to do …
10. I have to see to . 我必须处理 。
Ⅲ. 语法重点:
本单元复习过去分词作定语和状语的用法。过去分词可以作名词的前置定语,也可以作名词的后置定语。当过去分词作状语时,要注意其逻辑主语的问题。
另外要学习同源宾语的用法,如:( page 2 Unit 13 )
Einstein ( lived ) the rest of his ( life ) quietly in the USA . ( 爱因斯坦在美国静静地度过了余生 ) 。其中宾语 life 与 live 是同源的名词,即同源宾语 ( cognate object ) 。这是中学英语课本中十分常见的语法现象,这种宾语用在某些不及物动词之后,并往往有定语修饰,现举例如下:
1 . My grandmother lives a happy life in the countryside . 我的祖母在乡下过着幸福的生活。
2 . Premier Zhou Enlai fought a hard fight against “Gang of Four” . 周恩来总理与“四人帮”进行了一场艰苦的斗争。
3 . He breathed his last breath last night . 昨天夜里他咽了最后一口气。
4 . He laughed a hearty laugh at the good news . 听到好消息后他开心地笑了。
5 . Chris will sing us a pop song . 克莉斯将给我们唱首流行歌曲。
6 . Her son died a hero's death in the war . 她儿子在战争中英勇牺牲了。
7 . She sleeps a sweet sleep only on Sundays . 只有在周日她才能甜美地睡一觉。
8 . I dreamed a pleasant dream last night . 昨天夜里我做了个愉快的梦。
9 . My father signed a deep sign . 我父亲深深地叹了一口气。
10 . My mother smiled a happy smile when I passed the entrance examination .当我通过了入学考试时,我妈妈幸福地笑了。
【指点迷津】
单元重点词汇点拨
1. delay推迟;耽搁
What delayed you so long yesterday ?
The train was delayed one hour by the accident .
〖点拨〗without delay毫无耽搁地,立即。after a delay of two hours延迟两个小时以后。
注意:delay + -ing推迟干……。如:I’ll delay answering his letter until I feel like writing .
另外,put off + ing推迟干……。如:They put off holding the sports meet .
2. quarrel争吵;吵架
He had a quarrel with his wife about / over the housework .
〖点拨〗quarrel with sb about / over sth因为……向某人争吵
3. dare与need
dare 和 need 这两个词的用法有它们独特的地方。词性有两种而且不同的词性决定了它们不同的用法。对中学生来讲掌握它们的用法有一定的难度,无论教师从理论上如何解释,但同学们在具体运用中都会出现浮光掠影,若明若暗,零乱残缺,张冠李戴的现象。这两个词难就难在对词性的判断,它们可以作为情态动词用(其后不带 to),又可以作为行为动词用(后面要带 to)。为了便于区分其词性和掌握用法,同学们可以采用下面的口诀帮助记忆。
〖点拨〗口诀:“dare , need 真奇怪,既行为(指行为动词)又情态(指情态动词),是行为,把 to 带(指其后用不定式),是情态,把 to “卖”(指其后去掉 to,只用动词原形)。若 need (= want ,require) 的主语是某物,愿与 -ing (= to be done)结姻缘。”
请做以下练习:
1) Something is wrong with my watch . It needs ____ .
A . to repair B . repairing C . repaired D . being repaired
2) I ____ to ask the teachers for advice in the office .
A . dare not B . not dare C . dare don't D . don't dare
3) He ____ come to school to give us a lecture on how to learn English .
A . need B . need to C . needs D . to need
4) She ____ do so .
A . won't dare B . dare not C . will dare to D . not dare
5) We ____ to think it over before we take action .
A . needing B . needs C . need D . needed
[答案与简析]1 ― 5 BDABC 。第一题选B;某物作 need 的主语,后面应用动名词的主动形式表被动含义。第二题选D;dare 用作行为动词,其否定形式应为“助动词+ not dare to do sth . ”第三题选A;need 用作情态动词,其后跟动词原形。第四题选B;dare 用作情态动词,直接加 not 表示否定。第五题选C;need 用作行为动词,主语是人称代词,其后应该是 need to do sth .
4. furniture (总称) 家具
A lot of furniture will be bought for you .
〖点拨〗furniture是不可数名词,表示件数要用量词piece / set 。如:three pieces of furniture三件家具。
5. doubt怀疑;疑虑
I have no doubt that he will pass this examination .
〖点拨〗beyond doubt = out of doubt毫无疑问。
用于肯定句时用doubt if / whether …。用于否定句时用doubt that 。
单元词组思维运用
1. have a seat = take a seat坐下
Entering the hall , he had a seat in the corner .
Have a seat and make yourself at home .
注意:have a seat用于直接引语。
2. long before = long time ago很久以前
She said that she had known your name long before .
注意:It wasn’t long before是一个常用句型,意为“不久”。before long不久以后
3. pay … a visit = pay a visit to对……进行参观;对……进行访问
That basketball team will pay Europe a visit before long .
注意:表示状态的“在……参观;在……访问”用on a visit to 。如:These singers have been on a visit to Africa for a month .
4. in silence静静地 = silently
She alone sat under the tree in silence , looking straight forward .
5. again and again = over and over反复地;再三地
The student made the spelling mistakes again and again .
6. connect to连接;相连
Please connect the two speakers to the amplifier .
注意:connect with与……相连接;与……有联系。如:She is connected with the Smiths .
7. see to处理;负责
I have some personal affairs that I have to see to .
Will you see to turning off the lights ?
8. have a good / pleasant journey一路顺风;一路平安

9. fasten … to… 把……栓在……;把……系在……
He fastened a rope to a post .
10. do repairs维修;修理
A few building repairs were done a week ago .
We must do a lot of repairs on the house before we move in .
11. no matter不要紧;没关系
It’s no matter whether he will come or not .
注意:在It doesn’t matter 中,matter是动词。
12. from that moment on从那一刻起
13. a long wait等很久

Word came at last after a long wait .
14. in the dark在黑暗中

二、学海导航
【学法指要】
单元难点疑点思路明晰
1. I've got some personal affairs that I have to see to . 我有些私事非处理不可。
〖明晰〗1) affair, business 作“事物”讲时,这两个词的意义很相近,常可通用。
Mind your own affairs (business) . 少管闲事。
business不能用复数,而affair特别是指重大或头绪较多的事务时,常需要复数,在下面的句子里,这两个词不能通用。
Each Ministry of Foreign Affairs lodged a protest with the other . 双方外交部向对方外交部提出抗议。
Business before pleasure . 先办正事,再谈娱乐。
2)see to有“注意,照料,保证,修理,诊治”等意思。例如:
Your shoes need seeing to . 你的鞋得修补了。
You ought to have your eyes seen to by a doctor . 你应该请医生治眼睛。
2. I dare say my uncle will . I have no other relatives . 我认为我叔父会得到这笔钱,我没有其他的亲戚。
〖明晰〗1)I dare say 的意思并不是“I dare to say”,而是和“也许”几乎同义或者等于“我想”。
I dare say you're right . 我看大概是对的。
I dare say it will come later . 我想它以后会来的。
2)dare用作情态动词时,后接动词原形,主要用于疑问句和否定句或者表示不肯定意义的各种从句中。例如:
Dare you ask him ? 你敢问他吗?
I dare not go there . 我不敢去那儿。
That is as much as I dare spend . 我只敢花那么多的钱。
3)dare作主动词时是规则动词,用法如下:
a)表示“敢”,后接动词不定式,也可省去to。例如:
I don't know how he dares to appear in public .
I've never dared go back to look . 我从来不敢回去看一下。
3. I think it will be necessary for me to pay you a visit and see where you live . 我想有必要去拜访你,看看你住在什么地方。
〖明晰〗1)句中的it用作形式主语。例如:
Is it necessary for us to meet/necessary that we meet ?我们有见面吗?
2)pay a visit (to someone or something)/pay (someone or something) a visit表示“(短时间)访问(某人,某物)”;“参观(某物)”。例如:
Shall we pay your brother a visit this afternoon ?
4. Do you see that hole high up in the wall, about 18 cm by 9 ? 你看到墙壁上方那个大约18厘米宽,9厘米高的洞没有?
〖明晰〗1)句中的high用作副词,指的是高矮;而highly表示很高的程度(意思往往是 very much)。
The plane flew high above . 飞机高高地在上空飞。
An eagle circled high overhead . 一只鹰在头上高高盘旋。
The goods on display are all very highly priced . 这些展销货物标价都很高。
He speaks very highly of the boy's behaviour . 他十分赞赏孩子的行为。
2)about 18 cm by 9用作后置定语,修饰that hole,介词by表示面积、 体积的长、宽、高。例如:
The room measures fifteen feet by twenty feet . 房间宽十五英尺,长二十英尽。
5. Dr Watson and I will spend the night locked in your room . 我和华生就锁在你的房间里过夜。
〖明晰〗1)第一人称单数I与其他人连称用时,通常的词序是,第二、三人称代词在前, 第一人称代词在后。例如:
You and I can do it . 我和你都能做这件事。
You, Tom and I are to leave tonight . 我、你和汤姆今晚得离开。
2)句中的过去分词locked用作方式状语。例如:
Just then the old man entered (supported) by his son . 就在这时, 老人由儿子扶着走了进来。
He turned away (disappointed) . 他失望地走开了。
She went home (exhausted) . 她回到家时已精疲力尽了。
6. Immediately Holmes jumped up from the bed and struck a match . 福尔摩斯立即从床上跳起,划燃一根火柴。
〖明晰〗The young lady rushed into the room immediately she heard the noise . 那位年轻的女士一听到响声就冲入房间。
第一例句中的 immediately 用作副词, 表示“立刻, 立即”; 第二例句中的immediately用作副词,表示“一……就……”,类似的说法还有instantly, directly, the moment, the minute, the instant等。例如:
I'll go there directly (=as soon as) I have finished my breakfast .
The moment I saw you I knew you were angry with me .
【妙文赏析】
A teacher asked his students some challenging ( 难以回答的,具挑战性的 ) questions to find the most intelligent ( 聪明的 ) students . His first question was:
“ What can you get with one penny that can be used by the whole class for about an hour ? ”
After a while an answer came from a clever girl .
“ I can get a candle . The whole class can be lit up ( 照亮 ) with its light . ”
The teacher praised the student for her smart answer before asking the second question .
“ What can you get with one dollar which can be used by the whole class for a whole year ? ”
An answer came from monitor of the class .
“ If we put a calendar ( 挂历 ) on the wall , we can use it for a whole year . ”
After warm applause of admiration ( 羡慕的掌声 ) , the teacher presented his third question:
“ What can you get without paying anything that can be used for your whole life ? ”
This time there was no immediate response ( 答复 ) .
“ You get your name free of charge and you use it all your life . ” Again the clever girl won applause from the whole class .
Now came the teacher's last question:
“ What can you get which can be used after your death ? ”
Immediately he saw his favorite student open her mouth .
“ A coffin ( 棺材 ) , Sir . ”

“You were too c____(18) ! But you haven't broken any l____(19) , in my opinion.”
“But the drunkard(醉汉)who was l____(20) in the street had it hidden in his coat !”
答案与分析:
Old Hill由于偷盗贵重的珠宝被关进了监狱。圣诞节快到了,牢房里只剩他一个人,他感到很寂寞。突然两个警察把一个年轻人关进了牢房。他打量那个衣着讲究的年轻人,可以判断他出身一个富有家庭。他问年轻人是为何被关进监狱。年轻人说他的汽车轮胎被酒瓶扎破了。Old Hill认为那也不犯法。最后年轻人拐弯抹角地说,那个酒瓶是在一个躺在街道上的醉汉的大衣里的(意思是他从醉汉身上碾了过去)。
1. 从后面所讲的别的囚犯都释放来看,Old Hill一个人在牢房里,要填alone。2. 从上下文可以得知,Old Hill由于偷盗贵重的珠宝才被关进监狱的。因此,应填valuable。3. Old Hill偷盗了贵重的珠宝,就得在监狱里呆五年多。应当填prison。4. 从监狱的看守买礼物来看,是圣诞节到了。故应填Christmas。5. 另外几个囚犯被释放了,牢房里只剩Old Hill一个人,他也就无法和任何人说话了。应填nobody。6. 那些警察在圣诞节以前,忙于给亲友买礼物。应当填busy。7. Old Hill感到寂寞,躺在床上也睡不着,要填asleep。8. Old Hill在挣钱养家的时候,自然很劳累。所以,应当填tired。9. 牢房有别的人,因此只要有动静,Old Hill就会听到的。应填heard。10. 门开了人才会进来。故应填opened。11. 警察在关进囚犯之后,先锁了门才能离开。要填locked。12. 那个年轻人自然是穿着好衣服。应填wore。13. 年轻人穿着讲究,当然是出身有钱人家庭。要直rich。14. Old Hill不知道那个年轻人为何也被带到监狱来。故应填brought。15. 年轻人认为他不走运,才出了那件事。应当填luck。16. 汽车轮胎扎破并不是大事故,而是一件很普通的事情。因此,应当填写ordinary。 17. 一般情况下,汽车轮胎扎上钉子,才会被扎破的。要填nail。18. 年轻人说他从一个酒瓶上驶过去,才把轮胎扎破了。Old Hill 就说他太粗心了。要填careless。19. Old Hill认为,年轻人从洒瓶上驶过去也不犯法,故应填law。20. 从年轻人的回答可以看出,那个醉汉是躺在街道上的。实际上, 他的汽车从醉汉身上驶过去了。这也是他被带到牢房的原因。要填lying。

【心中有数】
单元语法发散思维
过去分词作定语、状语
〖思维〗一、过去分词作定语
1.过去分词作定语时,单个分词一般放在名词之前,分词短语必须放在名词之后,这种情况与现在分词作定语时相同。例如:
Her job was to take care of the (wounded) soldier .
We are doing our (written) exercises .
The machine (run by the old worker) is made in Shanghai .
2.过去分词作定语时,多表示已完成的动作,但有时其所表示的动作却尚未完成或有待于将来完成。例如:
The houses (built in the 19th century) has been on fire for half and hour. (动作完成)
the workers demand (increased) wage . (尚未完成)
3. 及物动词的过去分词还可用来表示被动, 但也有少数动词(如fall, escape, boil等)的过去分词作定语时,只表示完成。例如:
the man spoken to(别人与之讲话的那个人)
boiled water(开过的水,表完成)
〖思维〗二、过去分词作状语
1.过去分词可用来作时间、原因、条件、让步、方式或伴随情况的状语。
1)表时间。例如:
(Heated), the metal expands .这种金属加热后会膨胀。
(Asked) why he did it, he said it was his duty .
2)表原因。例如:
(Born in the village), he knows a lot of people there .
3)表条件。例如:
(United), we stand; (divided), we fail .团结则存,分裂则亡。
(Given more time), I can do it better .
4)表让步。
Although (exhausted) after a long journey, he continued to work .
5)表方式或伴随情况。例如:
The professor stood there (surrounded) by many students .
〖思维〗三、尤其需要注意的是:过去分词无论作什么状语,其逻辑主语应是主句的主语。
1.【误】Seen from the mountain, we found the building is very small .
【正】Seen from the mountain, the building is very small .
2.【误】Written carelessly, he made a serious mistake in the letter .
【正】Written carelessly, the letter had a serious mistake .

■ 单元核心句型剖析
1. ( Lesson 37 ) It's not like her to have missed two days of classes .
一两天不来上课,她不是这样的人。
〖剖析〗It's (just) like sb to do sth “某人(恰恰)就是这个样子”,表示表扬或者不满,其否定式则表示怀疑。如:
It's like him to leave the work to others . 他就是把工作推给别人的人。
It was like him to fail us at the last minute . 他就是这样,在关键时刻让我们失望。
It's just like her to think of others before thinking of herself . 她恰恰就是先人后己的人。
It isn't like him to have said anything like that .他可不是说出那种话的人。
It isn't like her to have spent so much money . 花掉这么多钱,我看这不像她做得出来的事。
◆ 下面两句不一样:It's not like her to have missed two days of classes .
一两天不来上课,她不是这样的人。(不上课的事已经发生)
It's not like her to miss two days of classes .
她不是那种两天不来上课的人。(并未发生过不上课的事,只是泛泛而谈)
◆ to have missed 是非谓语动词的完成式,表示动作早已完成。是高考测试中的重要知识点。又如:
(1)It isn't like him to have told a lie to the manager . 他不是给经理撒谎的那种人吧。
(2)I'm glad to have seen your headmaster yesterday .
(3)He is said to have written a novel about the Long March . 据说他写了一本关于长征的小说。
(4)They thought it a pity not to have invited them . 他们认为没有邀请他们是令人遗憾的。
(5)I regretted to have missed such good chances . 我遗憾的是错过了这些好机会。
2. (Lesson 39 )The moment he entered the room , Bill fixed the chain across the door . 比尔一进入房间,就用链条把卧室的门扣上。
〖剖析〗这是复合句,其句型为:the + 时间名词 + 时间从句 + 主句。the moment … 表示“一……就”,相当于 as soon as 。注意从句中常用一般现在时代替将来时。如:
We started the moment we got your telegram .
The moment I heard your voice I knew that you were very angry with me .
The moment he comes , let me know .
The moment you set foot on Chinese soil you will see what great changes have taken place in the past 5o years .
◆ 在中学英语中,一些名词词组具有连词的作用,现归纳如下,供同学们学习参考。
◇ the + 瞬间名词 (instant , moment , minute , etc . ) ,意为“一……就……”。例如:
The instant the result came out she told us about it . 结果一出来,她就告诉了我们。
The machine starts the moment the button is pressed . 一按电钮,机器就开动了。
◇ the + 季节名词 (spring , summer , autumn , winter)。例如:
He came back the autumn his sister got married . 他妹妹结婚的那年秋天他回来了。
Jack went to Beijing the winter his mother was ill . 他妈妈有病的那年冬天杰克去了北京。
◇ the + 序数词 + time。例如:
The second time we met , he replied to a lot of questions . 我们第二次见面时,他回答了不少问题。
He came to see my mother the first time he came to London . 他第一次到伦敦就来看我母亲。
◇ 不定代词 each , every , any + time。例如:
Each time he came to Paris he would visit the museum . 他每次到巴黎都要去参观那个博物馆。
You're welcome to come back any time you want to . 你什么时候回来,我们都欢迎你。
◇ the + day , week , year……。例如:
He called on me the day he arrived . 他到的那天来看我了。
Tom didn't go to school the week the teacher was ill . 老师生病的那个星期,汤姆没去上学。
◇ 其它词组。例如:
I didn't see how he could act the way he did . 我不懂他怎么能那样做。
He doesn't study hard the way his elder brother does . 他不像他哥哥那样努力地学习。
■ 单元语法难点排除
直接引语变间接引语的 10 个注意点
本单元的语法要求是复习间接引语(Indirect Speech)和直接引语( Direct Speech )。同学们要通过本单元系统掌握表示请求或者命令的直接引语(祈使句)变成间接引语的方法。掌握当直接引语是一个陈述句时,在变成间接引语时应把这个陈述句变成由连词 that 引导的宾语从句,并根据意思改变人称和时态以及时间或者地点状语。下面是必须灵活驾驭的知识要点:
〖注意点 1 〗直接引语到间接引语的时态有变化。如直接引语的现在完成时变成间接引语的过去完成时等。时态变化中应注意:
直接引语表述的是客观真理时,间接引语中的时态不变。
Our teacher said , “The earth moves around the sun . ” →
Our teacher said that the earth moves around the sun .
直接引语是过去完成时,变间接引语时时态不变。
The boy said to his parents , “I had finished my homework before supper .”→
The boy told his parents that he had finished his homework before supper .
直接引语变成间接引语时,虚拟语气不变。

【学法指要】
●从单元中词汇中的“静”说起
第 28 课中出现了 calm (镇静的,沉着的),除calm 表达汉语“静”外还有:quiet , silent , peaceful 和 still。现就其用法归纳如下:
1. 形容天气的“温和”、“平静”、“寂静”时,这四个词基本通用。如:
a calm day 平静的日子,a quiet night 寂静之夜,a silent , moonless night 一个寂静、没有月亮的夜晚
2. 形容湖、海、洋的“平静”用 calm , quiet 和 still。如:
The sea is very calm . 海面很平静。
The high wind passed and the sea was calm again . 大风过后,海又平静下来。
The waters of the lake were quiet yesterday . 昨天湖面平静。
Still waters run deep . 静水流深。
3. 形容人的“冷静”、“镇静”用calm。如:
Keep calm ! 冷静点!
He is always calm even in times of trouble .
He seemed to be calm , but that deceived nobody . 他看上去是一副镇静模样,但其实谁也骗不了。
4. 形容人的“静默”用 quiet , silent。如:
He remained quiet throughout the meeting . 整个会议期间他保持沉默。
5. 形容人的性情温和、文静用 quiet。含没有明显的运动和声音。如:
a quiet girl 文静的女孩
My parents are quiet people . They never go out in the evening . 父母爱静,晚上从不外出。
This hospital lies in a quiet street .
6. 形容人“静止”用 still。still 含寂然不动,鸦雀无声。如:

Right now you need to stay still . 现在你需要静静地呆着。
The boy couldn't keep still in the doctor's chair . 孩子在医生的椅子上一刻也坐不住。
7. 表达“安静”,quiet , silent , still 都能用。如:

a quiet room 安静的房间
The audience was quite still . 全场听众几乎鸦雀无声。
The town was still in the early hours of the morning . 清晨时刻整个城镇静静的。
The building was usually very quiet . 那楼通常很安静。
体会下面表人时他们之间的区别:
They stood calm ( quiet , silent , still ). 他们镇静地(安静地、默不作声地、一动不动地)站着。
● 当心试题中的“分离现象”
解题时,经常会遇到这类题目,原句式结构或动词短语等被某些成份分离,或出于语法上的需要而使其从原结构中分离出来,从而增强了试题的干扰性,加大了试题的难度。碰到此题目时,不能被其表面现象所迷惑,必须从句子的整体结构去理解,看清试题的本来面目。
◇ 主谓被分隔造成谓语动词的误用。
在主谓之间加入一个介词短语或一个从句,往往会使考生误把介词宾语作为主语或把从句中谓语当成主句谓语,造成谓语动词的误用。如:
All but one ____ here just now .
A . is B . was C . has been D . were
该题答案为D,但考生往往把 one 看作主语,误选B。
The day we looked forward to ____ at last .
A . come B . came C . coming D . comes
由于把人句中 looked forward to 看作谓语,故错选了C。实际上本句是缺少谓语,应选B。
◇ 从句被状语分隔,造成关系词与连词的误用,或由于行文需被分隔造成错误。
在先行词与定语从句之间加入一个时间状语或地点状语,易使考生误把地点或时间当成先行词而误用关系词。同位语从句与其同位的名词被分隔,易造成连词的误用。如:
I met the teacher in the street yesterday ____ taught me English three years ago .
A . which B . when C . where D . who
若把 yesterday 误当作先行词,会导致错选B,而其实 teacher 是先行词,应选D。
The news has come from Beijing , ____ an important meeting is being held there .
A . where B . in that C . that D . which
若把 Beijing 看成先行词,则会导致其后面的从句误看作定语从句而错选A。实际上逗号后的句子是 news 的同位语从句,答案应为C。客中结构是为了保持句子的平衡。
◇ 习语中间插入其他词造成分隔,导致用词搭配错误如:
We waited ____ line for the bus .
A . for B . in C . on D . with
此句易受习语 wait for 的影响而误选A,其实句中 wait for 已被分隔,应选B。
◇ 因倒装而引起的分隔造成谓语动词的误用。
有些倒装句易使考生误判句子主语而错用了谓语动词。如:
At that time on it ____ 2200 people .
A . was B . is C . are D . were
若把 it 看成主语,则会误选A。其实主语为 people , 应选D。
◇ 其他分隔引起的错误。如:
We'll do all we can ____ them .
A . help B . to help C . helped D . have helped
由于定语从句用了省略形式,往往把 can 当成从句谓语的一部分,导致误选A。其实这是不定式用作目的状语,应选B。
◇ 定语从句中的分离现象
There are 800 students in the playground of our school , 55% ____ are girls .
A . of them B . in them C . of which D . of whom
此题考查的是非限制性定语从句,先行词和定语从句被地点状语分隔开来,故选D。若此题改逗号为分号,则应选A,因为分号表示前后两句意义上相互联系,结构上相对独立。
He is one of those students who , I am sure , always do ____ best .
A . his B . their C . my D . one's
从表面上看答案似乎是C,但如果注意到前面的 who , 答案就明确了。此题定语从句中的关系代词 who 和谓语动词 do 被 I am sure 分隔开来了。因此正确答案为B。
◇ 连锁疑问句中的分离现象
____ would you say ____ be done ?
A . Why , it should B . Why , should it
C . What , should it D . How , that it should
此题不少学生错选D。原因是不了解此结构是连锁疑问句。其结构为“疑问词+一般问句+特殊问句的其余部分”,往往用来征询对某一疑问点的判断、认识、看法、猜度等。在这种问句中一般问句部分常见的动词有 think , guess , say , suppose , hope , imagine , believe等。此题中疑问词被移至句首,故选A。
― I haven't heard from him for a long time .
― What do you suppose ____ to him ?
A . was happening B . to happen C . has happened D . had happened
粗心者十有八九会选B。实质上此题也是一种连锁疑问句,特殊问句中的 what 移至句首。该句强调的是过的动作对现在造成的影响,因此用现在完成时,故选C。
◇ 动词短语中的分离现象
If better use is ____ your space time , you'll make greater progress in that .
A . spent B . taken C . made of D . used for
此题正确答案为C。乍一看,选C似乎不可思议,认为“be made of”应是“由……制成”之意。实质上此题考查的是短语“make use of”的用法,use 从原结构中分离出来充当条件句中的主语,因此谓语动词用被动式。
What idea can a man who is blind from birth have ____ colour ?
A . of B . in C . for D . with
不少学生误选B,认为“在颜色这方面”。其实此题考查的是“have (some , little , no…)idea of”结构。其中 who is blind from birth 是修饰 a man 的定语从句。该句中的“what idea”是疑问词被移至句首,故选A。
◇ 不定式复合结构中的分离现象
Who did the teacher have ____ an article for the wall newspaper just now ?
A . written B . writing C . write D . to writer
做此题时,首先要理清句子结构,理解 have 的确切含义, have 在此句中意为“请(让、叫)”。该句考查的是“have sb . do sth . ”结构,have 的受动宾语疑问词 who 被移至句首,故选C。
Whom had you better ____ it ?
A . to let do B . let to do C . to let to do D . let do
此题考查两种结构的用法:1 . had better do sth . ; 2 . let sb . do sth . 。此题题意为“你最好让谁做这件事呢 ? ”let 的受动宾语 whom 移到了句首,故选D。
◇ 主谓一致中的分离现象
Everybody in our country , men and women , old and young , ____ sports and games .
A . enjoy B . were enjoying C . enjoys D . are enjoying
此题主语和谓语被同位语分隔了。同位语对主语只起修饰、解释、说明的作用,不影响 everybody 的单数性质,故此题选C。
Miss Green as well as Mr and Mrs Green ____ devoted ____ spare time to the research work .
A . has ; her B . have ; their C . have ; her D . has ; their
此题正确答案为A。当主语后面跟 as well as , with , together with , but , including , besides 等连接的名词或代词时,谓语动词和其前面的名词或代词在人称和数方面保持一致。

科普系列阅读 (二)
◆ Rockets in the Sky
What is the sky ? Where is it ? How high is it ? What lies above the sky ? I am sure that you have asked questions like these . They are very difficult to answer , aren't they ?
Perhaps we can answer some of these questions now . What is the sky ? It is vast space . Where is the sky ? It is all around the world . In the sky there is the sun , the moon , and all the stars .
Scientists have always wanted to know more about space . They use telescopes to obtain information . But this is not enough . So they want to send men to some of the other worlds in space .
The moon is the nearest heavenly body to the earth . An airplane cannot fly to the moon , because the air only reaches a height of 240 kilometres . Then there is no air . But a rocket can fly even when there is on air .
A rocket is made of metal there is a hot gas inside it . When it rushes out of the end of the rocket , the rocket is pushed up into the air .
Rockets can fly far out into space . Rockets have already taken men to the moon . One day they may be able to go anywhere in space.
NOTES : ⑴ vast adj . 广阔 ⑵ obtain v . 获得
EXERCISES: 请回答下列问题
⑴ What is the sky and where is it ?
⑵ In order to know more about space , what did scientists do ?
⑶ Why can't we fly to the moon in an airplane ?
⑷ what pushes a rocket up into the air ?
⑸ Can we be sure men will be able to go anywhere in space one day ?
〖译文与答案〗
空中火箭
天空是什么?它在哪儿?它有多高?天空的上方存在着什么?我确信你问过类似这样的问题。这些问题是很难回答的,不是吗?
或许现在我们能够回答这些问题中的一些。天空是什么?它是广阔的空间。天空在哪里?它遍及全球。天空中有太阳、月亮以及所有的星星。
科学家们总是想更多地了解太空。他们用望远镜来获取信息,但这是不够的。因此他们要把人送到太空中的其他星球上去。
月球是离地球最近的天体。飞机不能飞到月球上去,是因为飞机只能到达 24 万米的高度,再往上就没有空气了,但火箭即便在无空气时也能飞行。
火箭由金属制成,里成有一种热的气体,气体从火箭末端冲出来时,火箭被推向空中。
火箭能够飞出地球进入太空。火箭已经载人到了月球。会有那么一天,它们也许能够进入太空的任何地方。
答案:⑴ The sky is vast space and it is all around the world . ⑵ They used telephones to obtain information and they wanted to send men to some of the other worlds in space . ⑶ Because the air only reaches a height of 240 kilometres , then there's no air . ⑷ A rocket is made of metal . There's a hot gas inside it . When it rushes out of the end of the rocket , the rocket is pushed up into the air .
◆ Flying
Men have always wanted to fly like birds . Birds can fly easily because they are light , but men's bodies are heavier .
Men first went up into the air in balloons . These are big bags , and they are filled with gas . Hydrogen is a useful gas for balloons . It is lighter than air . Helium is also lighter than air , but it costs a lot of money . So balloons were (and are ) usually filled with hydrogen .
Balloons have to fly with the wind as they have no engines to drive them against it . Later , men made airships . These were balloons with engines , but they were also filled with hydrogen and some of them caught fire because the hydrogen escaped and the engines heated it . Then the airship was completely burnt in a few seconds .
Aircraft with wings now take people across the world . Powerful engines drive these machines across the sky . Some of the engines are like the engines of cars , but they are more powerful .
There is another kind of engine which we call the jet engine . An English engineer invented the jet engine . In May 1942 his new engine was fixed in an aircraft , and the aircraft flew quite well . At the same time he Germans were also building a jet engine ; but neither country told the other , of course .
Jet engines are very powerful . Usually two , three or four are enough for an aeroplane ; but some big aircraft have six . Anyone in a moving jet plane can feel the power of the engines . Jet planes can travel faster than sound (Sound travels at about 1100 feet a second . That is about 760 miles an hour .) As a flying jet plane leaves its noise behind it , we do not hear it until it has gone .
Notes : ⑴ hydrogen n .氢气 ⑵ helium n . 氦气 ⑶ be filled with 充满
Exercises : 请回答下列问题
⑴ Which costs more money , balloons filled with hydrogen or those filled with helium ?
⑵ What were airships ?
⑶ Why did some of the airships catch fire ?
⑷ When was the first jet engine fixed in an aircraft ?
⑸ How many jet engines are usually enough for an aeroplane ?
〖译文与答案〗
飞 行
人类总想像鸟一样地飞行。鸟儿能够轻易地飞行是因为它们身体轻,但是人类的躯体可就重多了。
人类最初是通过气球进入空中的,这些气球是充满气体的大袋子。氢气对于气球来说是一种有用的气体,它比空气轻多了。氦也是一种比空气轻的气体,但是它太昂贵了,因此气球通常都是装满氢气的。
由于气球没有发动机来作动力,所以气球不得不顺风飞行。后来,人类创造了飞艇,它们是具有发动机的气球,但不是圆的,而是长的,发动机在后面。它们也是被充满氢气;其中一些不幸失火,是由于氢气泄漏后发动机加热而引燃,几秒钟之后,飞艇就整个燃烧起来。
现在有翼的飞机可以带着人们穿越世界,强有力的发动机载着机器横过天空,一些发动机就像小汽车一样,但比它们的功率大得多。
还有一种我们称之为喷气式装置的发动机。一位英国工程师发明了这种喷气式发动机。1941 年5月,他发明的新发动机安装在一个飞机里,这个飞机飞行得很好。与此同时,德国人也建造了一个喷气式飞机发动机,当然两个国家都没告诉对方。
喷气式发动机马力很大。通常在一个飞机里装有两个、三个或四个已经足够了,但一些大的飞机要装六个。在一个正在运动着的喷气式飞机里,任何一个人都可以感觉到这些发动机的力量。喷气式飞机的速度要比声音的传播速度快(声音一 秒钟传播约1100英尺,也就是1 小时传播760 英里)。一个飞行着的喷气式飞机只有它飞过后我们才可听到噪声。
答案:⑴ Balloon filled with helium . ⑵ Airships were balloons with engines , but they were not round .They were long , and the engines were at the back . ⑶ Because airships were also filled with hydrogen and some of them caught fire because hydrogen escaped and the engines heated it .

【思维体操】
It happened in a small village . The weather was bad and the farmers couldn't get good harvests . Most people were poor and few of them could send their children to school . Only Robert whose uncle was a policeman and worked in a town was in school for three years . So he thought himself the cleverest man in the world and always looked down upon others . One evening the young man went out for a walk and saw several farmers talking under a big tree . He joined them and soon he thought they were all foolish .
“Well , Mr Know-all , ”said an old farmer . “Are you good at guessing any riddles ?”
“Yes , I can guess all kinds of riddles !”the young man said without thinking .
“Please listen to me , then , ”said the old man . “Mr Smith has seven children . Autumn came and the apples were ripe . So he sent one to hold the ladder , two to pick apples and three to take the fruit home . And how many stayed at home ? ”
Mr Know-all thought for a long time and answered , “One ! ”
“You are wrong , ”a little boy returned . “Two persons stayed at home ! ”
All the farmers began to laugh at the young man . And do you know why ?
〖释疑〗There were eight people in the house (Mr Smith and his seven children ) . The farmer sent six to work in the garden . So there were two people left at home .

易错常考的“情态动词+ have done”结构
在本单元出现了多处 “情态动词+ have done”表达推测。如:Something may have happened to her . 该结构经常用于 NMET 测试中,请同学们勿必引起高度的重视。下面是常见的形式:
◇ must + have done (have been doing) 表示对过去情况的推测,只用于肯定句,意思是“一定……”。对过去的否定推测用 couldn't have + done 。对现在的否定推测用 can't be 。
Her eyes were red , she must have been crying . 她两眼通红,一定一直在哭。
You must have left your handbag in the theatre last night , I think . 我想你一定把手提包丢在剧场了。
He can't be Li Ming . Li Ming is taller than him by a head .
She couldn't have gone to the cinema yesterday afternoon , because he was staying with us all the day long .
◇ should (ought to) + have done 表示“本来应该做而实际上没做”,其否定式则表示“本来不该做而实际上做了”,常含有责备的语气。
You should have been here five minutes ago . 五分钟之前你就应该到这里了。
How I regretted the days when I had played and should have studied . 我多么懊悔我本应该好好学习的日子都玩掉了!
◇ could + have done 表示“本来有能力做而实际上没有做”。

◇ would like to have done 表示“本来希望做而却未做的事”。

I'd like to have seen his face when he opened the letter . 我真想看到他拆信时的脸色。
◇ can (could) + have done (have been doing) 表示对过去情况的推测,只用于否定和疑问句中,意为“一定没有……,一定不会……”。用 could 比用 can 语气更加委婉些。

他一定还没有睡,瞧他房间的灯还亮着呢。
Where is Dick ? Where can he have gone ? Can he have been working ? 狄克在哪儿呢 ? 他会去哪儿呢 ? 他能一直干活吗 ?

【指点迷津】
单元重点词汇点拨
1. reason vi . 评理;劝说;推断为;说服
I reasoned that he was lying . 我断定他在撒谎。
〖点拨〗reason sb into doing = persuade sb into doing = persuade sb to do说服某人干……。reason sb out of说服某人不干……。

The reason (why) he got ill was that he didn’t pay attention to his health .
The reason why we don’t trust him is that he has often lied .
2. worthwhile值得的 ;值得花费时间和金钱的

〖点拨〗It is worthwhile + to do (或者 ?ing ) 。如:It’s worthwhile visiting the museum . = It is worthwhile to visit the museum .
注意下面的“值得”表达:be worth doing ; be worthy of being done = be worthy to be done 。
如:The article is worthy of careful study . = The article is worthy of being studied carefully . = The article is worthy to be studied carefully . = The article is worth studying .

另外,复习主谓一致的测试热点。
【指点迷津】
这些一致你了如指掌吗 ?
1. 主语 people 作“人们,人民”解时,谓语动词用复数,作“民族”解时,有单复数之分。如:
Our people is a great one .
There are 56 peoples in China .
2 . 主语是 a / this / that kind of + 名词,谓语用单数形式,主语指的不是一种而是多种,谓语动词用复数。如:
This kind of cloth feels soft .
There are different kinds of animals .
3 . 主语是“each of … ”,“neither of … ”,“either of … ”,“one of … ”等时,其谓语用单数。如:
Each of them has his own duty .
4 . 陈述部分用 everybody , everyone , somebody , someone , anybody , anyone , nobody , no one 或 no + 复数名词等作主语时,反意部分用 they。而陈述部分用 everything , something , nothing , anything 时,反意部分代词则采用单数,用 it 。
Somebody is waiting for you , aren't they ?
Everything is all right , isn't it ?
5 . 动名词或动词不定式作主语,其谓语用单数形式。
When and where to build the new factory is not decided yet .
6 . 用引号的词语作主语时,谓语用单数第三人称。
“I” is the ninth letter of the English Alphabet .
7 . 在强调结构中如被强调的是句子的主语,则 who 或 that 后面的谓语动词的人称和数应和主语一致。
It is Mike who always helps me study maths after class .
8 . wish 后接宾语从句用虚拟语气,如表示与现在事实相反,无论主语是单数还是复数,be 动词用 were。
I wish I were ten years younger .
9 . police , cattle 等集合名词作主语时,谓语用复数。
The murderer has run away . The police are searching for him .
10 . 算式中表示数目的主语通常看作单数,其谓语常用单数形式,也可用复数。

11 . youth 作“青年们”解作主语时,谓语用复数。
The youth of China today are doing their best to study modern science and technology .
12 . each 作同位语放在复数主语后,谓语不受单数 each 的影响。如:
The boy and the girl each have their own toys .
13 . 当 with 引出的短语结构后面出现 both 时,with 的含义变成 and ,此时谓语动词应该用复数形式。如:Martin with his wife ,both working in the same company , have decided that they would send their little daughter to the nearest kindergarten .
14 . “one of + 复数名词 + 谓语”是固定结构,谓语动词用单数。但是,在“one of + 复数名词 + 定语从句”句型中,定语从句的谓语用复数;若 one of 的前面有 the , the only 时,谓语仍用单数。试对比:
He is one of the people who always help others .
She is the only one of my guests that comes from India .
15 . 主语是以-ics 结尾的学科名词以及 news , works , (工厂) , politics 等都属形式复数,而意义单数的名词,其谓语用单数形式。另外 means 一词单复数同形应视具体情况而定。
Mathematics seems to be difficult to learn .
A new means of teaching is being used in that school .
注:学科名词前如有物主代词修饰时,谓语常用复数。如:My mathematics are week .
16 . 主语是用作书名、剧名、报纸名、国名等的复数名词,谓语一般用单数形式。

as poor as a church mouse
教堂 ( church ) 是教徒们进行宗教活动的地方,教徒们虔诚地作礼拜,当然没有人在这里吃东西,自然也不会有食品橱,一切都为得庄严肃穆。所以老鼠想在教堂里找吃的东西,根本的枉费心机,教堂里的老鼠 ( a church mouse ) 是非常穷的,所以就有 as poor as a church mouse 的说法,指某人一贫如洗。请看例句:
You want to borrow money from him ? He is as poor as a church mouse .你想向他借钱 ? 他一贫如洗。

Neither you nor I am a doctor .
Not only you but also he has been to the Great Wall .
Are either you or he against this plan ?
【动脑动手】
单元能力立体检测
1 . 美丽的长城值得一看。
误:The beautiful Great Wall is worth to visit .
正:The beautiful Great Wall is worth visiting .
析:worth 是形容词,后面要跟名词或动词 - ing 形式,不能跟动词不定式。如将上面的 to visit 改成 a visit 也是正确的。
2 . 到了上学期末,我已学习将近两千个英语单词。
误:By the end of last term , I learned nearly two thousand English words .
正:By the end of last term , I had learned nearly two thousand English words .
析:这里的 by 有“before ( 在……之前 ) ”或“not later than ( 不迟于 ) ”的意思,表示“在 ( 某时 ) 前”或“到某时”已发生某事或出现某种情况,谓语动词多用完成时态。句中是“上学期末”,所以用过去完成时态。
3 . 那人走过来夺了老人的包。
误:The man came over and took the possession of the old man's bag .
正:The man came over and took possession of the old man's bag .
析:“take possession of”意为“夺取、占有”,是固定的表达方式,一般在 possession 前面不用 the。
4 . 这些动物对美洲土著人的生活有很大影响。
误:These animals had a great effect to the life of Native Americans .
正:These animals had a great effect on the life of Native Americans .
析:“have an effect on ( upon ) ”是固定搭配,意为“对……有影响”,“对……起作用”,effect 后面跟介词要用 on 或 upon,不能随意改动。
5 . 他突然间击了她的头。
误:All of a sudden he hit her on her head .
正:All of a sudden he hit her on the head .
析:汉语中“打某人的头”,在英语中常用“hit + sb . + on + the + 身体部位”这样的结构。值得注意的是其中冠词 the 不能用物主代词代替。又如:
He hit the boy in the face . 他打了孩子的脸。 ( face 前面要用 the , 不能用物主代词。 )
6 . 他没有逃跑得了,被俘了。
误:He failed to run away and was taken the prisoner .
正:He failed to run away and was taken prisoner .
析:“to take prisoner”,意为“被监禁”、“被俘”,是个习语,prisoner 前面不能用冠词。但是 take 这个动词可以用 keep 或 hold 代替。又如: He was taken ( held , kept ) prisoner in a small island . 他被囚禁在一个小岛上。
7 . 他一到达,就被卖给一个农民当奴隶。
误:At his arrival he was sold to a farmer as a slave .
正:On his arrival he was sold to a farmer as a slave .
析:“on one's arrival”是一个习语,其中介词要用 on,不能用别的词代替。
8 . 报社给他提供了一些资金。
误:His newspaper provided him some money .
正:His newspaper provided him with some money .
析:“为某人提供某物”,用 provide 表达有两种方式,一是“provide sb . with sth . ”,另一种是“provide sth . for sb . ”,也就是说要用介词搭配,误句中少用了介词。度比较:
The government is trying to provide the unemployed with jobs . ( = The government is trying to provide jobs for the unemployed . ) 政府正力图为失业者提供就业机会。
9 . 他一登台,我就认出他来了。
误:I recognized him the moment when he appeared on the stage .
正:I recognized him the moment he appeared on the stage .
析:the moment 虽是名词,但在这儿可以作连词用,相当于 as soon as , 因此后面再用 when 就是多余的了。类似的名词如 the minute , the second 等也可以这样。上面正句里的 the moment 也可以用 the minute , the second 来代替。又如:
The moment / minute / second you arrive at the port , please telephone me . 你一到达港口,就请给我打个电话。
10 . 你们当中一人扮演哈利,另一个人扮演记者。
误:One of you plays role of Harley , and the other role of a reporter .
正:One of you play the role of Harley , and the other the role of a reporter .
析:role 作“角色”解,通常构成“play ( take ) the role of . . . ”结构,意为“扮演……角色”。这是固定搭配,“the”不可少。又如:
He wishes to take ( play ) the role of a king . 他想扮演国王。
但是,role 前可以用形容词修饰,例如:
Both of them wanted to play ( take ) the leading role . 他们俩都想演主角。
11 . 他每次进城总要拜访他的老师。
误:Every time he came to the city , he would visit his teacher .
正:Every time he came to the city , he would visit his teacher .
析:“every time”是个名词词组,用作从属连词,引出时间状语从句,意为“每一……就……”。不能像误句那样连写。又如:
Copy it down every time you come to a beautiful sentence . 每当你碰到一个漂亮的句子就把它抄下来。
12 . 年轻人应该永远尊敬老年人。
误:Youth should always show the respect to old age .
正:Youth should always show respect to old age .
析:“show respect to”是一个习语,意思是“对某人表示尊重”,其中 respect 是不可数名词,前面不用冠词,但是可以有修饰词修饰。其中 show 可以用 have 代替,介词 to 也可用 for 代替。例如:
She had / showed no respect to / for manager . 她对经理一点也不尊重。
They have / show a great respect to / for the journalists .他们对记者非常敬重。

恐怕我不能和你一起去大连度周末了,一来我没有钱,二来我太忙。
以上单词和词组可通过听对话录音,教师介绍过程中呈现,然后用问答讨论课文内容等方式再现以上单词和词组加深理解词义,掌握用法,紧后用句型转换或补全名子等方法巩固,开发运用。
B)本单元应掌握的重点文法知识:名词性从句
名词从句包括主语、表语、宾语和同位语从句。从总体上要注意两点:
连接主句与从句的连词有副词why, how, where, when, whether, if,它们在从句中充当状语成份,个有不同的词意,因此不能省略。代词who, whom, whose, what, which, 它们在从句中充当主语、定语、宾语,个有不同的词意,因此也不能省略。在联系中取舍哪一个词,本着缺什么成份,把它补齐,使句子在结构上与含意上完整就可以了。不同的连词,名子的意思也不同。例如:
Why/How/Where/When/Whether/Of what material the new house will be built hasn’t been decided yet.
为什么/怎样/在什么地方/什么时候/是否/用什么材料建这座房子还没有定下来。
【学法指要】
本单元语法难点:
1.掌握that在名词性从句中的用法。that在宾语从句中,不充当成份,也无词意,因此它可以省去;在主语、表语和同位语从句中,that虽然不充当成份,也无词意,但不能省略。
Today’s newspaper reports(that) sales of beef in China will increase.(宾语从句)
今天的报纸报道说,中国的牛肉销售量将会增加。
That land ownership in some countries is unfair is obvious.(主语从句)
在一些国家里,土地所有制的不公平是显而易见的。
The reason is that is has been raining for five days.(表语从句)
原因是已经下了五天的雨。
The reason that it has been raining for five days is why the crops has been flooded.
连续下了五天的雨,所以庄稼都泡在水里了。(同位语从句)
2.注意宾语从句中主句与从句谓语动词时态的呼应。
宾语从句中主句与从句谓语动词时态的呼应有三种情况:
A)主语谓语动词用现在和将来时态时,从句谓语动词可用任何所需要的时态。
Tom says that his sister is(was, will be) a doctor.
B)主句谓语动词用过去时态时,从句谓语动词则根据语境用过去时间的各种时态。这规律意也适用于主语、表语和同位语从句。
He thought the boy was honest.
I told him his brother was coming(would come).
We didn’t know whether they had finished their work.
注意:当从句说的内容是一般真理或客观事实时,从句谓语动词仍用一般现在时。
The mother told her little daughter that the earth goes round the sum.
He told me that the train for Beijing leaves at 10:30.
Somebody told me that you are a teacher.
3.否定转移
当主句的动词是think, believe, suppose, expect时,从句的否定要前移。
I don’t think she is right.
【妙文赏析】
Many centuries ago, all people had gathered seeds and plants to eat. They did not know how to farm or raise animals for food. Because they used stone tools and weapons, we call them the Stone Age people. There are people who still live much like these Stone Age people lived. They live in places that are hard to reach. Because they have met few outsiders, they do not know about modern inventions. They have not traded ways of doing things with others. For 25,000 years, groups of people have lived alone in the middle of Australia. One of the groups is the Aruba tatribe. They do not know how to farm, nor do they raise animals. The Artuntas spend most of their time searching for food and water. The men hunt animals with stone---tipped spears. The women and children look for roots, seeds and nuts. Several Artunta families live together. They have no houses. At night, they sleep around fires.

【心中有数】
本单元的语法重点是名词性从句,而名词性从句的考查在高考试卷单项选择一题中一般情况下占20%,即在20个小题中有一个小题。如:
1.─I drove to Zhuhai for the air show last week.
─Is that _____ you had a few days off ?
A. why B. when C. what D. where (NMET99)
2.─It was _____ he said _____ disappointed me.
A. what; that B. that; that
C. what; what D. that; what (上海99)
答案:1.A;2.A
分析:
句1:从题干和所给的4个选择中不难看出本题考查的是表语从句。“I drove to Zhuhai for the air show.”提出一个事实,而第二句表明“I”不在的原因。故答案为A.why。
句2:该句考查的是强调句和主语从句。该句强调的是句中的主语,而该句的主语又是一个从句。从这个结构中可以看出第二个空和“It was”构成强调句,故第二个空应该是that;第一个空和“he said”构成主语从句;在这个从句中“said”一词后缺少宾语,故答案为A.what;that。

birth 是中学英语教材中的一常用词,也常见于 birthday ( 生日 ) 、birthplace ( 出生地 ) 、birthrate ( 出生率 ) 和 birth control ( 计划生育 ) 等一些复合名词或短语之中。从字面看,这些复合词和短语意义容易理解,但下面一些含 birth 的介词短语和动词短语对于中学生来说就不那么容易理解了。现将 at birth , at a birth , by birth , from birth , of…birth 与 give birth to 的用法作一总结,供同学们参考。
1 . at birth 意为 “ 出生时 ” ,相当于 when one was born 。例如:

Cats sometimes have four or five young at a birth . 猫有时一胎产四、五只幼仔。

1.patience容忍;耐心
This kind of work requires much patience .
She had no patience with her nosy neighbours .她不能容忍爱管闲事的邻居们。
〖点拨〗with patience = patiently耐心地。be out of patience with对……不能忍受。
另外,注意:be patient with sb对某人耐心。be patient of sth对某事耐心。
You should be more patient with these patients . 你应该对这些病人再耐心些。
2. laughter笑;笑声
I heard a roar of laughter from the next room . 我听到从隔壁房间传来哄笑声。
〖点拨〗burst into laughter = break out into laughter = burst out laughing 放声大笑。
注意由laugh构成的词组有:laugh a good / hearty laugh开心地笑。laugh a bitter laughter苦笑。have a good laugh over对……捧腹大笑。laugh at嘲笑。
He laughs longest who laughs last . = He who laughs last laughs longest . (谚语) 笑到最后的笑的最好。(别高兴的太早了。)
3. priceless无价的;非常贵的
The priceless collection of paintings is of great importance .
〖点拨〗valuable , invaluable , priceless , valueless 和 worthless
从形式上看,invaluable , priceless , valueless 和 worthless 这四个形容词均带有否定意义的前缀 in- 或者后缀 -less ,因此,很容易认为它们都含否定意思,其实它们的含义有天壤 之别。现介绍如下:
1) invaluable :该词中的前缀 -in 加重 valuable 的含义,所以 invaluable 的准确意思为“价值大得无法衡量的”“非常贵的”。如:
His advice has been invaluable to the success of the project . 他的意见对于项目取得成功起到了非常积极的作用。
2) priceless :该词中的后缀 -less 有抬高价码的意思,所以该词译作“价值高得难以确定的”“非常值钱的”“无价的”。如:
Only the rich can afford to buy these priceless paintings . 只有富人们才能买得起这些价值千金的绘画作品。
Works of art , historic monuments and priceless historical records were ruthlessly destroyed . 艺术作品、历史遗址以及无法估价的史料均遭到残酷的破坏。
3) valueless :此处的 -less 是一个含否定意义的后缀,故该词译作“不值钱的”“毫无价值的”。如:
These paintings have been ruined and are now valueless . 这些油画都已毁坏,所以现在就无价值了。
4) worthless :此词与 valueless 同义,但还有“不足取的”“丝毫没用的”之意,这时不能与 valueless 换用。如:
The jewels he sold us turned out to be completely worthless . 他卖给我们的珠宝原来毫无价值。
It was a worthless action .那次行动得不偿失。

单元难点疑点思路明晰
1 . …one or two people had told my mother that I was simple-minded . 有一两个人曾对我母亲说过我头脑简单。
〖明晰〗(1)one or two…后的动词用复数,one or two还可作主语。但a/an…or two可当作集合名词看待,而动词取单复数都可,由讲话者或作者主观上而定。如:
There are one or two things that must be remembered . 有几件事必须记住。
Only one or two have been questioned about the case . 有关该案只有一两个人受到审问。
Only a word or two is/are needed here . 这儿只需几句话就行了。
(2)simple-minded 头脑简单的。minded作为形容词常构成复合词,含“有……头脑 的(思想的,观念的,意识强的)”。如:

An excellent speaker, he is never at a loss for words . 他是一位出色的演说家,从来不会想不出说什么好。

a born fool 天生的傻子/a born musician 天生的音乐家/a recently born idea 新近产生的想法/He is born rich . 他生来有钱。

6 . It took great imagination as well as patience for Annie to teach me to speak . 安妮以极大的耐心和想象力教我说话。

He can speak French as well as English . 他不但会讲英语,而且还会讲法语。
She is not only hardworking but also clever . 她不但用功,而且聪明。

一位澳大利亚姑娘和一个美国小伙结婚后,在美国度蜜月。有一天新郎新娘去赴宴,新郎觉得没有合适的服装可穿,恰巧前不久新娘在他的生日前送了他一套服装,新娘于是不假思索地说:" Why not wear your birthday suit ? " 不料这句话却使新郎全家大惊失色,面面相觑。
原来,这位来自澳大利亚的、生来就讲英语的新娘不知道 birthday suit在美国英语中不当" 生日服装 " 讲,而是" 赤身露体 " 的婉语,所以闹出了笑话。如:
The little boys were swimming in their birthday suit . ( 那些男孩子正光着身子在游泳。)

浅析“变成”类系动词及搭配
常见的“变成”类系动词有 become , get , come , go , grow , fall , turn , run 等,都表示从一种状态到另一种状态。尽管意思差不多,但搭配有差别,若不注意,运用时会出错。我们要注意以下几个方面。
1 . 形容词作表语。
go 和 come 是一对相反的词。“go + adj . ”表示令人不快的事情,而“come + adj . ”则表示好的事情。例如:
In hot weather , meat goes bad .
Things will come right in the end .
go 与 come 前面的主语一般是物。例如:
(误)She goes famous .
(正)She becomes(gets)famous .
表语为mad , crazy(古怪的),blind , lame 或表示颜色的词,go 前面的主语可以是人。例如:
He went mad .
Hearing this , she went red .
run 后面接 short , dry , low , deep 等词,主语多为能流动,能消耗掉的东西。例如:
Their money was running short .
Still waters run deep .
但 wild 作表语,主语可以是人。例如:
Don't let the children run wild . 不要让孩子们毫无约束(变野了)。
grow 与 run 相对,接表示人或物特征的静态形容词,也接表示天气的形容词,侧重于“逐渐变成”。例如:
The girl grew thinner and thinner .
Soon the sky grew light .
turn 多接表示颜色的形容词,也接表示天气的形容词,它侧重变得与以前完全不同。
The man turned blue with fear . 因害怕,这个人变得忧郁起来。
The weather suddenly turned much colder .
fall 接 asleep , silent 等静态形容词和表示疾病的形容词,但不能接形容词比较级。例如:
She fell ill from cold .
(误)She fell worse .
(正)She got worse .
fall short(没中),fall apart(散开),fall flat(没效果),可作成语记住。
“get + adj . ”是口语,用得广泛,get能替代become , become 较正式,get 与 become 前面的主语既可以是人又可以是物。例如:
He became(got)angry .
His coat has become(got)badly torn .
get较多地与形容词比较级连用。例如:
The days are getting longer and longer .
注意:become 一般不用于“将来成为”的意思。例如:
(误)I hope you will become well .
(正)I hope you will get well .
2 . become , turn , get , go , fall 能用名词作表语,其它的则不能。例如:
His dream has become(got)a reality .
He has turned scientist .
He has gone socialist .
He fell(a)victim to cancer . (他患了癌症。)
注意:go , turn 后面的名词通常不带冠词。
3 . become , get , grow 能接过去分词,并且 come 和 go 多接有否定前缀的过去分词。
“get + 过去分词”表示一次行为;“become + 过去分词”表示事情发生的最后结果。
The string comes untied .
His report went unnoticed .
The fence gets white――washed every year .
She became engaged as a typist .
4 . get , go , come 能接现在分词,不过它们已失去“成为”的意思。例如:
They went in and got chatting together . (开始)
We often go swimming . (去)
He came running in . (来)
5 . come , grow , get 能接不定式,这种结构表示变化过程,come 表示“最终变得”,get 表示“由不……变得”,grow 表示“渐渐变得”。例如:
I've really come to love this place .
Mary's growing to be more and more like her mother .
You'll soon get to like it .
这种结构不能用于带有一段时间的完成时态。例如:
(误)They have got to know each other for years .
(正)They have known each other for years .
6 . 它们都可以接介词短语,固定搭配需要一个一个地记。例如:
They went(grow)out of fashion . (它们变得不时髦了。)
They ran out of money .
The problem will come under discussion .
They fell behind the others .
What has become of the girl .
It's getting near tea-time .
