For the first time in his life, he became the proud owner of a bed which had springs and a mattress. Because the weather was very hot, he carried the bed on to the roof of his house. He slept very well for the first two nights, but on the third night, a storm blew up. A gust of wind swept the bed off the roof and sent it crashing into the courtyard below. The young man did not wake up until the bed had struck the ground. Although the bed was smashed to pieces, the man was miraculously unhurt. When he woke up, he was still on the mattress. Glancing at the bits of wood and metal that lay around him, the man sadly picked up the mattress and carried it into his house. After he had put it on the floor, he promptly went to sleep again. 参考译文 德黑兰的一个年轻人由于对睡地板感到厌倦, 于是积蓄多年买了一张真正的床. 他平生第一次自豪地拥有了一张既有弹簧又带床垫的床. 由于天气很热, 他便把床搬到了他的屋顶上. 头两天晚上, 他睡得非常好. 但第三天晚上起了风暴. 一阵大风把床从屋顶上刮了下来, 把它摔碎在下面的院子里. 那年轻人直到床撞到地上才醒了过来. 尽管床摔成了碎片, 但年轻人却奇迹般地没有受伤. 他醒来时, 仍然躺在床垫上. 年轻人看了一眼周围的碎木片和碎金属片, 伤心地捡起了床垫, 把它拿进了屋. 他把床垫往地板上一放, 很快又睡着了. 【课文讲解】 1、Tired of sleeping on the floor, a young man in Teheran saved up for years to buy a real bed. be tired of 对……感到厌倦,在这句话里省略了现在分词being,用形容词短语直接做原因状语,其作用相当于原因状语从句as he was tired of…。 I always go to bed hungry. (用形容词直接做状语) Worried about my daughter, Lucy, she went to London to visit Lucy. I went home. I am tired. => I went home tired I went home excited. save up 攒钱,储蓄 I want to get married in one or two years, so I’m trying to save (some money) up. 2、For the first time in his life, he became the proud owner of a bed which had springs and a mattress. for the first time in one's life 平生第一次 He became the proud father of a baby. 我自豪的成为一个孩子的父亲了. 3、Because the weather was very hot, he carried the bed on to the roof of his house. on to(onto) 类似与 in to(into),用于表示动作方向而不用于表示静态的位置,不但有“去”的概念还有把它放到“on”(上面)的概念。onto/on to有时可用on代替,但表示位置的on不可用onto代替: Lift sth. on to the cart. I put the pen onto/on the table. The pen is on the table. (不能用onto/on to) Mr. Thompson is jumped onto the stage. 汤普森先生跳上了台上。 Mr. Thompson jumped on the stage. 汤普森先生在台上跳了跳。 4、He slept very well for the first two nights, but on the third night, a storm blew up. for the first two nights 头两天晚上 I study hard for the first three days. for the last three nights 最后三天晚上 blow up <adv.> 风越刮越大(程度在加深),(指暴风雨)出现并加剧;刮起 speak up 大声点 5、A gust of wind swept the bed off the roof and sent it crashing into the courtyard below. gust表示“一阵强风,一阵狂风”,既可单独使用,也可用a gust of wind形式: A gust (of wind) blew my hat off. She set off even though the wind was blowing in gusts. 虽然当时阵阵狂风吹着,她还是出发了。 off = down/away from below 直接放在被修饰词之后作定语 crashing into the courtyard below是现在分词短语,作宾语补足语。crash (不及物动词)直接用主动形式,smash(及物动词)可用被动 一个句子中不能出现两个动词,如果出现了两个动词,要用and或but连接;或者把其中一个作为非谓语动词to do(表目的),-ed(表被动),-ing(表主动)。 6、The young man did not wake up until the bed had struck the ground. not…until表示“直到……才”,until前面没有not时,与表示一段时间的“持续动词”连用;有not时,常用表示某一时间点的动词(或瞬间动词)连用: I’ll stay here until Monday. 我要在这儿呆到星期一。 I won’t leave until Monday. 我要到星期一才离开。 7、Although the bed was smashed to pieces, the man was miraculously unhurt. although 尽管;though 虽然,意义差不多,以从句出现 to pieces 粉碎地,成碎片地 The cup was broken to pieces. 8、Glancing at the bits of wood and metal that lay around him, the man sadly picked up the mattress and carried it into his house. glancing为现在分词,引导的短语相当于一个时间状语从句after he glanced at…。动词的ing形式一定强调某一个名词之间的主动关系。 glance v. 看一眼,扫视 Joe glanced through the newspaper while talking to me. 乔一边和我聊天,一边浏览报纸。 bits = pieces lie (lay,lain) 不及物动词,后面一定要加“around”,不能说成“lay him” 【letter writing】 大多数书信都以“dear”开头,后接姓名,“dear”这个词一定要在信纸的左手边顶格。第二行如要退格是退5个字符, 现在西方都是顶格写。 【Key structures】 复合句的语序 复合句可用两种方法构成:一是用连词把从句与主句连接起来;二是用分词结构或不定式。 1、用连词连接的复合句 ① 在复合句中,从句可以是名词从句(即起名词的作用)。在句子中,它可以作主语、宾语或be等系动词的表语,一般由that引导,有时也用what(疑问词引导的除外) I know (that) the meeting will be put off. ② 从句可以是关系(或形容词)从句,关系代词通常有who,whom,that,which和whose。 ③ 从句可以是状语(或副词)从句,时间状语连词有when,after,before,as soon as,until,while,as,since等;地点状语从句连词有where,everywhere,anywhere等;方式状语从句连词有as或短语in the way (that)等,方式状语从句在动词be,feel,seem,appear等后面也可以由连词as if和as though来引导;原因状语从句由because,as等引导;条件状语从句可由if及其他连词引导;让步状语从句使句子具有对比的因素,它们一般由连词although,though,even though,even if等引导;目的状语从句可由so that,in order that等连词引导;结果状语从句描述结果,可由so+形容词+that引导,也可由such (a) +(形容词) + 名词 + that来引导;比较状语从句结构包括as +形容词/副词 + as,not so/as … as,形容词/副词的比较级 +than,more…than,less…than等 He has been ill since he came back from his holidays. With a special train ticket, you can travel anywhere/everywhere you like in Europe for just over $100. Type this again as/in the way (that) I showed you just now. As you can’t go yourself, you’ll have to ask Susan go for you. 既然你自己不能去,那你就请苏珊替你去吧。 2、分词结构的复合句 ① 用现在分词结构可以代替时间从句、原因从句、关系从句等,现在分词结构的这种用法仅限于两个动作的主语一致的时候。用它代替时间从句时,分词结构表示的动作如果发生在前,则分词结构要位于主语前;如果两个动作同时发生,那么分词结构既可以位于主句前,也可以位于主句后。分词结构位于主句前面时,要用逗号隔开。 I got very angry speaking to them. Feeling tired, I went to bed earlier than usual. Following his mom, he went there.(主动概念, 跟着他母亲去了那儿) ② 过去分词结构常用于比较正式的文体,往往代替被动语态 Damaged in an accident, the car has now been repaired. Followed by his mom, he went there. (被动概念, 被他母亲带着跟着去了那儿) 3、不定式结构的复合句 这种结构通常可以代替表示目的或表示条件的状语从句: To get into university you have to pass a number of examinations. 【Multiple choice questions】 3、___b___ the hot weather, he couldn't sleep indoors. a.
