段落精講:
第一、詞匯精講
1. contentment
釋義:a feeling of happiness or satisfaction ( from Oxford )
[adj. ]滿足
范例:He found contentment in reading novels.
他從看小說當(dāng)中得到滿足。
Happiness consists in contentment.
知足常樂。
2. produce
釋義:cause (sth) to occur; create ( from Oxford )
[vt.] 引起(某事物);產(chǎn)生
范例:The medicine produced a violent reaction.
這藥物引起了劇烈的反應(yīng)。
His announcement produced gasps of amazement.
他宣布的消息引起了一片驚嘆聲。
第二、加分短語
1. in front of sb:在某人面前,當(dāng)著某人的面
范例:He enjoys posturing in front of an audience.
他喜歡在觀眾面前裝腔作勢。
The good harvest scene emerges in front of us.
豐收景象在我們面前展現(xiàn)出來。
2. in a bad mood:情緒不好,心情不好
范例:He could tell she was in a bad mood, and tried to laugh her out of it.
他看出她心情不好, 想逗她笑好讓她不再想煩惱的事.
The cancellation of the plan puts him in a bad mood.
計劃的取消使他很不開心。
3. once more:再一次,又一次
范例:Could we go through (ie rehearse) Act 2 once more?
我們重排一次第二幕的戲好嗎?
Arrive late once more and you're fired.
你再遲到一次,就把你開除。
第二、失分短語
1. with long steps
注釋:此語的意思是“大步地”。這個短語有2個失分處,一個是“step”,另一個是“l(fā)ong”。走路是兩條腿在交替,因此要“steps”,用復(fù)數(shù)形式。大步地走是表示腳邁出的距離遠,因此要用“l(fā)ong”,來表示,不要用big。介詞with在這里表示“伴隨”。
2. on his short little legs
注釋:此語的意思是用“他那短小的腿”。這里有2個失分處。一個是“l(fā)egs”,一個是“his short little”。On這個介詞在這里表示方式,意思是“借助......,用......”。
走路是用兩條腿交替進行,因此要用leg的復(fù)數(shù)形式。表示“短小”,不要用作short little。
在英語中,表示大小的形容詞和表示長短的形容詞同時修飾一個名詞時,表示長短的要位于表示大小的前面。這里short是表示“長短高矮的”,little是表示“大小的”。
3. back at the workhouse
注釋:此語的意思是“回到救濟院”,介詞要用at,不要用in。
第三、寫作語匯
1. see the board:見董事會
注釋:see在這里是“會見,會晤”的意思。
2. sit around a table:圍做在一張桌子周圍
3. produce the feeling of contentment:滋生滿足感
4. walk on:繼續(xù)走
注釋:on在這里的意思是“繼續(xù)”。
第四、語法點撥
1. Mr Bumble walked on with long steps,with Oliver on his short little legs running beside him.
要點解析:劃線部分是由介詞with而引導(dǎo)的獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu),結(jié)構(gòu)是with+主語+Ving。這里Oliver是名詞,謂語是one his short little legs running beside him。在這里省略了謂語was。
用介詞引導(dǎo)的獨立主格結(jié)構(gòu)與主句邏輯關(guān)系緊密。
2. He stood in front of ten fat men who were sitting around a table.
要點解析:劃線部分是由關(guān)系代詞who引導(dǎo)的限定性定語從句來修飾指代人的且在定語從句中做主語的先行詞men,此時,關(guān)系代詞who不能省略。
第五、寫作句式
1. There is no doubt that + 句子(毫無疑問的...)
例句:There is no doubt that our educational system leaves something to be desired.
毫無疑問的我們的教育制度令人不滿意。
2. An advantage of... is that + 句子 (...的優(yōu)點是...)
例句:An advantage of using the solar energy is that it won't create (produce) any pollution.
使用太陽能的優(yōu)點是它不會制造任何污染。
