1.__________________(從太空上來看),our earth, with water covering about 75% of its surface, appears as a “blue planet”.
2.Anti-government demonstrations do occur, but seldom, if ever, ______________________(正如報紙上報道他們的那樣)。
3.He lent me a thousand pounds,____________________(那正好是我需要的數目)to solve my problem.
4.The villagers_____________________(理所當然地認為)that we should build new roads.
5.______________________(如果我和我兄弟之間出現爭吵),my dad settles it.
答案:
1. Seen from space
Seen from space此處用做狀語,它和句子主句the earth 的關系是被動的,要用過去分詞,being seen 是現在分詞的被動形式,這種形式用在動作正在進行或與謂語表示的動詞同時發生,在作狀語的分詞里較少適用。
2. are they reported in the newspaper
but 后的分句是以含有否定意義的seldom起首的,后面要用倒裝結構。由于是被報紙報道,所以report 要用它的被動形式。
3. which is exactly the amount I needed
此處用關系代詞which 指代a thousand pounds.英語中表示金錢、時間、距離等數量的名詞短語,雖然形式上是復數的,其后動詞仍用單數形式。
4. take it for granted
take it for granted 是固定搭配,意思是“理所當然地認為”。
5. If any quarrel arises between my brother and me
此句容易把arise 用成rise,但是 rise的意思是“升起,起來”,而arise 的意思是“出現,發生,呈現”,主語一般為抽象名詞,如“problem, trouble, quarrel”等.
