　　语    法：不定式的被动结构

　　精讲巧练
　　重点词汇
　　desire
　　【原句回放】Do you think it is possible for a robot to have its own needs and desires?
　　　　　　　 （Page 10）
　　【点    拨】desire 既是可数名词，又是不可数名词；意为“愿望；欲望”；后面常接不定式或that引导的同位语从句，同位语从句要由should + 动词原形来担当，should还可以省去。

如：Young people have no desire to work for the government.

They all know the leaders’ desire that neither country (should) lose any territory.

他们都明白两国领导人对两国都不要失去领土的希望。

desire作动词，表示“想要……；向往……”

常见搭配：desire to do sth.

desire sb. to do sth.

desire that +宾语从句
　　desire作动词后接that引导的宾语从句时，从句谓语用should+动词原形，且should可省略。
　　如：The company naturally desires to to avoid negative publicity.  公司自然想避开负面的宣传。

The President desires you to visit him next week.

The President desires that you (should) visit him next week.

【随 时 练】She desired that you ________ her at once.
　　 A. saw　　　　　 B .had seen　　　　　 C. see　　　　　 D. would see
　　 Key: C

　　absent
　　【原句回放】Clarie didn’t want the robot in her house , especially as her husband would be absent for three weeks, but Lary persuaded her that the robot wouldn’t harm her or allow her to be harmed.
　　【点    拨】absent 形容词，意为“缺席的；不在场的”。常用 be absent from…。

如：①She was absent from school with a cold .
　　　　②Do you know the number of absent students?
　　【拓    展】absent 的名词形式absence。
　　【随时 练】I’ll be absent ______ home in the afternoon.
　　 A. from　　　　 B. in　　　　 C. with　　　　 D. at
　　 Key：A

　　declare
　　【原句回放】She cried out “Tony”and then heard him declare that he didn’t want to leave her the next day and that he felt more than just the desire to please her .
　　【点    拨】declare vt. 意为“表明；声明；宣布；宣告；宣称”。

如： Australia declared its support for the agreement.

澳大利亚宣布支持这项协议。

常见结构:declare sb./sth. (to be) sth.

declare that…
    The judge declared him the winner of the game .

Brady declared that he had no intention of giving up the fight.

布雷迪声称他无意放弃这场战斗。
　　【随 时 练】The moment the 28th Olympic Games __________open the whole world cheered.
　　 A. declared　　　 B. have been declared　　　 C. have declared　　　 D. were declared　
　　 Key: D. 在这个句子中，不仅考察declare的用法，而且还应注意the moment这个名词充当了连词的作用，意为：“一……就……”。整个句子的意思是：当第28届奥林匹克运动会开幕式一被宣布，全世界就欢呼起来。

　　accompany
　　【原句回放】As he was not allowed to accompany her to the shops ,he wrote out a list of items for her .
　　【点    拨】accompany vt. 意为“伴随，陪同；和……一起发生；附带”。常用被动结构。

Children under 12 must be accompanied by an adult.

A skin rash may be accompanied by fever.

出皮疹时可能伴有发热现象。

An illustrated catalogue accompanies the exhibition.

展览副带有插图目录。

常见搭配：accompany sb. to…  “陪某人去……”

I must ask you to accompany me to the police station.

【随 时 练】改错：My father accompanied me to go to the hospital.
　　 Key: 去掉：go to。

　　leave alone
　　【原句回放】She shouted “Leave me alone”and ran to her bed .
　　【点    拨】leave alone “不管；不要打扰；让……一个人单独呆着”

如：Leave those flowers alone; You are going to spoil them.

别动那些花，你会弄坏他们的。

It’s not your problem, so why don’t you just leave it alone?

这不是你的问题，所以为什么要去理它呢？
　　【随 时 练】1. ________that _______; you might break it.
　　 A .Leave; off　　　　　 B. Leave; out
　　 C. Leave; alone　　　　 D. Leave; over

　　 2.---Oh, where is my wallet? Maybe I left it in the car.
　　　---You _________things behind.
　　 A. are always leaving　　　 B. were leaving　　　 C. have left　　　 D. always leave
　　 Key: C  A. 第一题中leave off “停止”；leave out“省去，遗漏”；没有leave over这个短语。 
　　第二题中用现在进行时表示说话者一种语气；也表示这样的情况经常反复发生。

test out
　　【原句回放】It was going to be tested out by Larry’s wife, Claire.
　　【点    拨】test out 考验；检验
　　　　　　①He is going to test out the result of the experiment.
　　　　　　②The new switch mechanism isn’t fully test out.

新的转换装置还没有完全被检验。

set aside
　　【原句回放】So set aside some time each day to write , even if it is only five minutes.

        set up                  建立，成立

        set apart               分开

【随 时 练】You’d better _________some money for future use.
　　 A. set aside　　 B. put up　　　 C. pick up　　　 D. use up
　　 Key: A. put up“张贴；建造……”；pick up“捡起；顺便捎某人一段；顺便学习某知识、技能”；use up“用完”。

　　marriage
　　【原句回放】He had opened the curtains that night so that the women would see him and Clarie, knowing that there was no risk to Clarie’s marriage .
　　【点    拨】marriage 名词，意为“婚姻；结婚”，其动词形式为：marry。

常见用法: marry sb.        与某人结婚

         get married      结婚

marry sb. to sb. 把……嫁给……

be married (to)   （与某人）结婚

以上四个短语中前三个重点强调的是“结婚”这个动作，不能和“一段时间”相连；最后一个短语强调“结婚了”这个状态，可以和“一段时间”相连。

The day I married Sarah was the happiest day of my life.

When two persons get married, they enter into a contract with each other.

当两个人结婚时，他们就达成了一种契约关系。

　　重点句型
　　have sth done
　　【原句回放1】Asimove began having stories published in science fiction magazines in 1939.
　　【原句回放2】You cannot have women falling in love with machine.
　　【点     拨】have sth. done =get sth. done 使﹨让某事由别人去做
　　　　 　      have sb. doing使某人（物）开始起来做某事。
     若用于否定句中，其中have有“容忍”之意，表示不许﹨不让某人做某事；have sb. do sth.让某人去做某事。
　　

【链接高考】
　　【考例1】You should understand the traffic rule by now. You’ve had it _______often enough.(天津)
　　 A. explaining　 B. to explain　 C. explain　　 D. explained
　　【答案与解析】 Ｄ.　分析it 与explain的关系可知是被动关系所以用explained.。
　　

【考例2】Laws that punish parents for their little children’s actions against the law get parents ______.(重庆)
　　 A. worried　 B. to worry　 C. worrying　 D. worry
　　【答案与解析】A. 此句中需要分析parents 与worry的关系是：parents are worried .所以用worried表一种“忧虑的”状态。这个题中的get parents worried其实是get sb.+ adj的一种格式。
　　

【考例3】I won’t have him _________his bike in the kitchen .
　　 A. cleans　 B. cleaning　 C. cleaned　 D. to clean
　　【答案与解析】B. 因为have用于否定句中有“容忍”之意，表示不许﹨不让某人做某事。此处意为“我不允许他在厨房里擦洗自行车”所以用cleaning .

　　It is/was +that…  
　　【原句回放1】It was then that Clarie realized that Tony had opened the curtains on the front window.
　　【原句回放2】It was when Asimov was eleven years old that his talent for writing became obvious.
　　【点     拨】
　　1.It is /was…that… 为强调句型，可以强调主语、状语。但强调谓语动词应用助动词do/did/….
　　2.强调人时可用who作连词，强调其他部分用that。所强调的可以是单词短语也可以是从句，但结构必须完整。
　　【考例１】_______the catastrophe（突如其来的大灾难或大灾祸） happened that the local government realized the importance of sustainable development (可持续发展).
　　 A. It was until　　 B. Not until　 C. Until　　 D. It was not until (2007 江苏常州３月)
　　【答案与解析】D.考查not… until…在强调句中的用法。把该题还原成原句,为：The local government didn’t realized the importance of sustainable development until the catastrophe happened.如果要强调until引导的条件状语从句，则变成了题干。在这个变化的过程中，注意not 的位置，同时省去了一个助动词did。

【考例2】Was it from the lake _______he often went fishing __________ he saved the drowning girl? (2007　山东潍坊二模)
    A. that; that　　 B. where; where　　 C. where; that　　 D. that; where　　

【答案与解析】C 解答此题的关键是能够对句型进行正确的分析和判断。本题题干为一个强调句式：it was+被强调部分+that/who其他部分。lake后面是个定语从句，由关系副词where引导，第二个空才是强调句中的that。句意：他是不是在常去钓鱼的湖里救起了那个落水女孩？
　　

【考例3】It was the typhoon _______was called Saomai ________destroyed some cities of Zhejiang Province.
　　A. which; that　　　 B. what; which　　　 C. which; who　　 D. that; which
　　【答案与解析】A.考查强调句型。which was called Saomai是定语从句修饰typhoon.
　　

【考例４】________you came to the party so late?
　　A. Why was it　　　 B. Why it was　　　 C. Why it was that　　　 D. Why was it that
　　【答案与解析】D.此处考查强调句型的特殊疑问句。首先，该题的原句应为：I came to the party so late for traffic jam（堵车）.其次，对“for traffic jam”这个原因状语进行强调，则变成It was for traffic jam that I came to the party so late.最后，对所强调的“for traffic jam”进行划线提问，应选出特殊疑问词why, why后面要用一般疑问句语序；又因为我们最后要得到一个问句，那么第一人称I就变成了you,结果就得出了强调句的特殊疑问句：Why was it that you came to the party so late?
