课文精讲
1.Modern English started around the time of Shakespeare, towards the end of the sixteenth century.
现代英语的开端大约在莎士比亚时代,接近16世纪末。
time 表示“历史时期,时代”,为可数名词,也可用times。如:
In ancient times infant mortality was extremely high.在古代,婴儿死亡率极高。
England got greatly developed in Queen Victoria’s time.
英国在维多利亚女王时代得到了极大的发展。
In modern times, pollution is a serious problem.现代,污染是一个严重的问题。
toward(s) 表示时间,意为“接近,将近,快要到(某个时刻)”。
Toward dawn we found ourselves in a large valley.快天亮时,我们走进了一个大的山谷。
Towards the end of the afternoon, it began to rain.将近黄昏时,开始下雨了。
2. Shakespeare is most famous for his plays.
莎士比亚因其戏剧而非常出名。
most=very意思是“很;非常”。在非正式文体中most不表示最高级,而是用作副词,用法和意义同very. 如:
That’s most kids of you.你心肠真好。
We had a most enjoyable party.我们开了一个令人极为愉快的晚会。
He will most certainly come.他一定会来。
3. Once published, his work became famous for the absence of rhyme at the end of each line.
他的作品一出版,就因其每一行的结尾不押韵而出名。
once published相当于once his work was published, 在句中做时间状语。由于主从句中的主语相同,所以可将从句中的主语省略,直接用过去分词表示被动。
once用作连词,表示after(在……之后)或as soon as(一……就……)的意思。它常暗示某事已经完成,并且大多和完成时连用。如:
Once you have passed your test I’ll let you drive my car.
你考试通过了之后,我就让你开我的车。
I’d like to go for a walk once the rain has stopped.雨一停下来,我就去散步。
Once you know how to ride a bike you never forget it.
你一旦学会了骑自行车,就永远忘不了怎么骑。
词语辨析
1.become, turn
二者均意为“变成”,后接名词时,become后接冠词,而turn不接。如:
He became a teacher.
He turned teacher.
他成为了一名教师。
2.be afraid to do, be afraid of doing
二者均意为“害怕做某事”,而 be afraid of doing还可意为“担心某事会发生”。如:
He is afraid to go home because he is afraid of being beaten by his father.
他不敢回家因为怕被父亲打。
3.used to do, be used to doing
used to do意为“过去常常做某事”,而be used to doing意为“习惯于做某事”。如:
I used to get up at 7, but now I don’t. 我过去经常七点钟起床,但现在不了。
I’m used to getting up at 7 now.我现在习惯于七点钟起床。
4。aloud, loud
aloud意为“出声地”,loud意为“大声地”。如:
If you want to learn English well, you’d better read aloud instead of in silence.
如果你想学好英语,你最好朗读,而不是默读。
Speak loud so that the people at the back can hear you.大声说话好让后面的人听见。
5.until, not…until…
until前的动词多为延续性动词。not until前的动词多为点动词。两者的意思也不同。until意为“直到”,而not…until…意为“直到……才……”。如:
I waited until he came back.我一直等着直到他回来。
I didn’t go to bed until he came back.直到他回来我才睡觉。
语法讲解
本单元的语法重点是过去分词作状语。
过去分词在句中可以作让步状语、时间状语、原因状语、条件状语及方式或伴随状语等。这时句子的主语和过去分词之间是被动的关系,即主语是过去分词所表示的动作的承受者。
1)过去分词作原因状语时相当于一个because所引导的原因状语从句。
Born in a poor family, he had only two years of schooling.
出生在一个贫困家庭,他只上过两年学。
Greatly inspired by the teacher’s words, I have made up my mind to work at English even harder.受到老师的话的鼓舞,我决心更加努力学习英语。
2)过去分词作时间状语时相当于一个由when或while所引导的时间状语从句。
Seen from the hill, the park looks beautiful.从山上看,公园很漂亮。
Translated into English, the sentence was found to have an entirely different word order.
当被翻译成英语时,这个句子的语序完全不同。
3)过去分词也可以表示一种假设的情况,相当于一个条件状语从句。
Given more time, the work would have been finished.
如果时间更充裕的话,这项工作能够被完成。
He won’t come unless invited.除非邀请他,否则他是不会来的。
4)如果在过去分词前加上though或although等词,就变成了一个让步状语从句。
Though told not to be late again, Mike didn’t get to school on time.
尽管被告知不能再迟到,迈克还是上学来晚了。
Though warned of the danger, he still went skating on the thin ice.
尽管被警告有危险,他还是在薄薄的冰面上滑冰。
5)过去分词作方式或伴随状语时往往表示动作发生的背景或情况。
The professor came into the laboratory, followed by a group of students.
教授走进实验室,后面跟着一群学生。
Encouraged by those successes, they decided to go on with their research.
受到那些胜利的激励,他们决定继续研究工作。
