标题 A Person Of Great Determination(一个意志坚强的人)
章节 第八单元
关键词 高三英语第八单元
内容
一、教法建议
【抛砖引玉】
本单元同学们要学习的是一个名叫 William Hartley 的人如何从少年时代就立志远大,培养自己优秀的做人品质。他大约 12 岁时为了得到一本书四处奔跑给人留下深刻的印象。30 年后他当了船长,凭着自己坚强的意志和高尚的品质又在船沉没之前率领全船人员拼搏前进,让船终于抵达利物浦港,挽救了乘客的性命。他的一言一行的催人奋进,他坚强的决心、意志和勇气催人泪下。
今天,在实施素质教育的过程中,我们中学生就需要培养像课文中主人公所具有的良好的健康的心理素质,这种素质就如同人生海洋中冲浪的坚船。人的一生就是在不断的追求中升华,就是在失败中奋发,就是在挫折中坚强,就是在绝望中再生。因此,人必须具备坚强的意志和非凡的勇气。泰戈尔有句名言:“世界之路并没有铺满鲜花,每一步都有荆棘,但是你必须走过那条荆棘的路,愉快微笑,这是对人的考验,你必须把愁转变为有所得,变辛酸为甜蜜。”坚强得意志和非凡得勇气就如同人生路上披荆斩棘的开山斧。失败了,跌倒了,不要哭泣,不要叹息,要挺其身板,擦干泪水,忍住痛苦,昂起不屈的头,勇敢坚强的克服重重困难,去实现自己心中美好的愿望。
所以,坚强的意志就是人生长河的渡船,虽然有惊涛骇浪,虽然有暗礁浅滩,虽然有急流陡转,只要有了像William Hartley那样坚强的意志,我们的航船就一定能顺利达到胜利的彼岸。
同学们还会透彻地学习到如何表达自己的歉意行为。在西方国家,随处可以听见“Sorry”, “Excuse me”等之类表示道歉的话,如上车踩了别人的脚、拨错了电话号码、当着别人的面打喷嚏、打断别人的话或者耽误了约会时间,都会说声“对不起”。
当要说的话、要做的事、要引起别人注意等可能引起对方不快时常先说一声“Excuse me”。为已经做的事表示歉意用“Sorry”。这样做一是给对方感情上的弥补,二是自身文明素质的体现。接受别人的道歉时要向道歉者表示安慰。

One morning the three sisters were together in the drawing room . Mary was sewing . Lucy was playing the piano , and Jane was doing nothing ; then suddenly the door opened and John burst in .
4. 过去进行时与 always , forever , constantly 连用表示羡慕、讨厌、赞扬、不满等感情色彩。
He was always changing his mind .
5. 过去进行时表示按计划安排过去某时将发生的动作。
They were leaving a few days later .
6. 动词 hope , want , wonder 的过去进行时用来提出请求,表达婉转的口气。实际上表示的时现在的情况,虽然一般过去时、现在进行时也可以表达委婉的语气,但都不如过去进行时那样婉转。
I was hoping you could send me some monkey stamps .
I was wondering if you could help me .
7. 过去进行时在某些结构中作想象性用法,表示与现在事实相反,或表示将来的臆想情况。
If they were leaving tonight , I'd like to go with them . 若今晚他们要走,我很想一块走。
I wish they were not speaking so loudly . 但愿他们不大声喧哗。
8. 有时用 come , go , plan , expect , hope , intend , look forward to 等的过去进行时表达本来打算而实际没有做成的事情。
He was expecting to finish the work last month , but unexpectedly the machines went out of order . 他原想上个月做完这件工作,但不巧机器出了故障。(= had expected)
I was going to the cinema tonight , but the manager told us to attend a meeting . 今晚我本想去看电影,但经理告诉我要去参加一个会。
9. 过去进行时还可以表示该动作还未结束或已进入一个新阶段。
By the time he was ten , Edison was already doing experiment in chemistry . 到十岁时,爱迪生已经在做化学实验了。
Soon all the people of the city were talking of the wonderful cloth . 很快全城的人都在谈论这种神奇的布。
10. 在口语中,过去进行时有时既不是表示某时某刻正在进行的动作,也不是表示婉转口气或铺叙背景,而只是说明最近过去的事情。
I was asking what you thought of it . 我是问你是怎么想的 。
I was hearing John had got a new job . 我听说约翰有了新工作。
11. “过去进行时”与“一般过去时”的区别在于,前者主要描述一个持续性的动作,而后者表示一个完成的动作。对比:
They were building a dam last winter . (指在建造中)
They built a dam last winter . (指造好了)
12. 使用过去进行时应注意,有些瞬间动词(accept , allow , admit , complete , decide , end , give , receive , refuse , permit , promise , break , fall , slip , stop , marry , …)没有进行时,开始的时间就是结束的时间。
误:The new secretary was supposed to report to the boss as soon as she was allowing it .
正:The new secretary was supposed to report to the boss as soon as she allowed it .
综上所述,开头的那道NMET 99 时态题应这样理解:从第一个人的话“喂!你是怎么走的?”可以悟出具有责备的口气。第二个人应是对刚才自己的行为表示歉意,“真是太抱歉了,我真的没有注意到”,强调刚才的举止行为,符合上面的第十点解释。

● 一般过去时与过去完成时的 11 个测试点
一般过去时与过去完成时都可表示过去的动作或状态,它们既有联系又有区别,极易混淆。
1. 表示过去未实现的希望、计划或打算,用过去完成时。常用的动词有intend , mean , hope , expect , suppose , think , want 等。
I had meant to call on you , but was prevented from doing so .我本打算给你打电话,但被其它事给耽搁了。
We had hoped to be able to come and see you . 我们本来打算能来看望你。
They had wanted to help her but couldn't get there in time . 他们本想帮她的忙,却没有及时赶到那里。
过去完成时的这种用法也可以换为:Had + hoped (…) = hoped + to + have + done
I had wanted to see you , but found you were out . = I wanted to have seen you , but found you were out .
2. 在由 told , said , knew , heard , thought 等动词后的宾语从句中常用过去完成时。
She said she had never been to Paris .
3. 注意在句型 hardly … when , no sooner … than 的主句中用过去完成时。当hardly 和 no sooner 谓语句首时主句要用倒装结构。
She had hardly sat down when she heard her name called by the monitor . = Hardly had she sat down when she heard her name called by the teacher .
4. 表达过去两个动作如第一个动作完成后才能引起第二个动作,则第一个动作用过去完成时,第二个用一般过去时。
When he had drunk all the wine , he left his house .
When he reached home , he found his house had been broken into and lot of things stolen .
5. 若句中有表示过去的时间时,在由 had rather ;I wish 后的宾语从句中用过去完成时。
I would rather you had told me the truth last time . 我宁愿你上次把实话告诉我。
She wished she had been there yesterday . (事实是:She wasn't there)
6. 在与过去相反的虚拟语气中,条件句用过去完成时。特别要注意该结构省略 if 后的倒装结构。
If John had studied hard last term , he would have made great progress .
Had he known that you were busy last week , he wouldn't have given you so much trouble .
7. 在过去某时之前的继续动作,表示某事继续到过去某时已有一段时间,则用过去完成时,并与 for , since 等词连用。
He had been ill for a week when he was went to the hospital .他被送医院时已病了一星期了。
He said he had worked in that factory since 1984 . 他说他从 1984 年以来 一直在那家工厂工作。
8. 两个或两个以上的动作,用 and , then 或 but 等连接,按照动作发生的顺序表达时,用一般过去时,表示过去发生的连续的动作。
The man got up , put on his cap and went away . 那人站了起来,戴上帽子走了。
I lost the hat which I had bought .
9. 过去完成时以过去某时间为起点,表示过去某一时间或动作之前已经发生或完成的动作或存在的状态。也就是,过去完成时是一个相对的时态,表示的是“过去的过去”,只和过去某时间或某动作相比较时才能用到它。一般过去时以现在时间为起点,表示过去发生的动作或存在的状态。
He died three years ago . 他三年前死了。
The film had already begun when I got to the cinema . 我到达电影院时,电影已经开始了。
We had learned 1000 English words by the end of last term . 到上学期末我们已学了 1000个英语单词。
10. 在间接引语中,以过去完成时代替直接引语中的一般过去时和现在完成时。但是如果叙述的是历史事实时,只用一般过去时,不用过去完成时。
She said that she had seen the film . 她说她已看过这个电影。
He asked me whether I had done it the night before . 他问我昨天是否做了那件事。
Our teacher told us that Columbus discovered (不用 had discovered) America in 1492 . 我们老师告诉我们哥伦布是 1492 年发现美洲的。
11. 由 before , after , as soon as 等引导的从句中,由于这些连词本身已表示出时间的先后比较紧凑,所以可用过去时来代替过去完成时。
After he closed the door , he left the house . 他关上门,离开了屋子。
We (had ) arrived home before it rained .下雨前我们到家了。
试比较下列两句的时态:① The train started just before we reached the station .② The train had gone when we arrived the station .
另外,常与过去完成时连用的时间状语有 already , still , yet , just , ever , never , hardly , scarcely 以及由 by , before , since , for ,after , until , as soon as 等构成的短语或从句。常与一般过去时连用的时间状语有:yesterday , last night , then , at that time , just now , a few days ago, in 1960 , once upon a time 以及由 when , while , after , before 等引导的表示过去时间的状语从句。

单元难点释疑
Lesson 29
◆ I've been looking forward to it . 我一直在等着这一天。
〖 释疑〗句中使用了现在完成进行时。NMET测试已经注意考查现在完成进行体。如:NMET'98 24小题
- Hi , Tracy , you look tired .
- I am tired . I ____ the living room all day .
A . painted B . had painted C . have been painting D . have painted
正确答案为C,此题考查的是现在完成进行时的用法。
现在完成进行时是表示动作从过去某一时间开始一直持续到现在,这个动作可能刚刚停止,也可能还要继续下去,其构成是 “have / has been + 现在分词”。
使用现在完成进行时应注意:
We've just been talking about you . 我们正谈你来着。(动作刚刚停止)
The CCTV has been broadcasting English programmes ever since 1977 . (SEFC SBIA P46) 自1977年起中央电视台一直在播送英语节目。(动作仍在继续)
现在完成进行时也可以用来表示现在以前这段时间反复发生的事情。如:
She has been cycling to work for the last three weeks . 最近三星期她一直骑自行车上班。
现在完成时与现在完成进行时用法比较:
1 . 现在完成时强调的是完成或对现在有影响的动作,而现在完成进行时强调的是持续了一段时间的动作,这个动作刚刚停止或仍在继续。请比较:
I have written an article . (已完成)
I have been writing an article . (还在写) 又如:
The Chinese have been making paper for two thousand years . (SBIB , P22) 中国人造纸已有两千年的历史了。(动作仍在继续)
They have been widening the road . (还在进行)
They have widened the road . (已经完成)
2 . 表示状态、感觉、心理活动的静态动词一般不用于现在完成进行时;若表示状态一直持续到现在,可用现在完成时。即现在完成进行时不能代替以下例句中的现在完成时。
We have known each other since childhood .
I haven't seen him for years .
They have always had a big garden . 他们一直有座大花园。
How long have you known that ? 你知道这事多久了 ?
3 . 现在完成进行时可以和时间短语连用,也可以不用,其意义区别不大;而现在完成时一般要与象 for two years、since July , since early morning , these few days 等一些时间短语连用,若不用时间短语,现在完成时只表示完成了的单一动作。如:
My shoe has been pressing against my foot . So it hurts a bit . (SB2A , P61)
我的鞋子挤脚,所以脚有点疼。(不用时间短语)
I have already closed the door . 我已经把门关上了。(表示完成的单一动作)
He has been back for two days . 他回来两天了。(与时间短语连用)
He has been trying to work out the maths problem since early morning .
We have been having fine weather for the past few days .
I'm rather tired . I've been playing basketball since breakfast .
4 . 有些延续性动词,如 live , teach , work , study , learn , stay 有时用现在完成时与用现在完成进行时意义区别不大。如:
I have lived here for ten years . (= I have been living here for ten years .) 我住在这儿已十年了。
How long have you studied English ? (=How long have you been studying English ? ) 你学习英语多久了 ?
另需注意的是:现在完成进行时一般不用于被动语态。
5. 在现代英语中,动词 sit , lie , wait , stay 等用现在完成进行时比用现在完成时更合习惯。
I've been sitting here all afternoon .
I've been waiting for you since morning .
I've been staying in a hotel so far .
6. 用“How long … ?”结构询问目前正在进行的动作的时间长度时多用现在完成进行时。
How long have you been sewing ?
How long have you been learning English .
◆ I'm sorry to have done that . 我那样作,真对不起。
〖 释疑〗本句中的 to have done 时不定式的完成式,表示动作提前完成。使用不定式的完成式应注意:
1 . 动词不定式的完成体
1) 如果不定式动作是瞬间动作动词,它表示一个在现在或过去某时之前已经完成的动作;如果是持续动作动词,它表示一个一直持续到现在或过去某时的动作。
a . 常见的可接不定式完成体的动词有: happen / see / appear / prove / pretend / seem , etc .
He seemed to have lived a happy life .
他似乎一直过得很幸福。(他的幸福生活一直持续到现在)
b . 常见的可用于“主语+ be said + to have done / been”相当于主动句“People say + that”结构的句型有:be said / reported / thought / supposed / expected / believed / considered / known 等。如:
Her husband is said to have given up smoking . 据说她丈夫已经戒烟了。(“戒烟”发生在“据说”之前)
The girl is reported to have been a League member for five years .
据报道那姑娘入团已经5年了。(不定式表示谓语动作前所处的状态)
c . 常见的可接不定式完成体的形容词有 glad / happy / sad / disappointed / satisfied / sorry / surprised 等。如:
I'm sorry to have given you so much trouble . 对不起,给你带来了那么多麻烦。
比较下面不定式的一般时和完成时的区别:
I'm happy to have seen you . 见到你很高兴。(分手时说)
I'm happy to see you . 见到你很高兴。(见面时说)
I'm sorry to keep you waiting for a minute . 对不起,要请你等会儿。(说话时还未等)
I'm sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time . 对不起,让你久等了。(说话时已经等了很久)
2) be + 不定式完成时态表示该做或想做但未做的动作。如:
You were to have arrived there early that day . 那天你们应该早点到那儿。(但你们晚到了)
I was to have helped him then . but I was too busy . 当时我本想帮他的忙,可我太忙了。(未帮他的忙)
3) 表示“意图,打算”之意的动词如 hope , wish , expect , think , suppose , want , plan , agree , mean , try 等用过去时,又后接不定式完成式作宾语时,表示想做而未做的事情。这种意义也可用这类词的“过去完成时+不定式的一般式”表达。如:
We wished to have put out the fire in thirty minutes . (=We had wished to put…) 我们本打算半小时就把火扑灭的。(结果没有)
The engineers planned to have removed the temple before the dam was completed . (= The engineers had planned to remove the…) 工程师们本决定大坝建成之前把那座寺庙移走的。(结果没有)
2 . 动词不定式的完成进行体
动词不定式的完成进行体表示不定式动作发生在谓语动作之前,并一直在进行着。其结构与不定式的完成体类似。如:
He is said to have been translating Luxun's works into English . 据说他一直把鲁迅的著作译成英文。(现仍然在译)
She seems to have been teaching in that school for fifteen years . 她似乎已经在那所学校教了15年书了。(仍在教,强调继续教)
The kind-hearted millionaire is very happy to have been helping the poor . 那个善良的富翁一直在帮助穷人,并为此感到非常高兴。(仍在帮)
We supposed to have been living here till our children grew up . 我们原以为可以在这一直住下去,直到我们的孩子长大。(但我们得搬家了)
3 . 动词不定式完成体的被动式
当主语与不定式动词有被动关系,且不定式所表示的动作又先于谓语动词动作发生时,动词不定式就要用完成体的被式。如:
The book is said to have been translated into many languages . 据说这本书被译成很多种语言。
The oranges were thought to have all been sold out . 人们认为桔子已经全部卖完。
He is very sad to have lost four bikes in less than one year . 他因不到一年就丢了4部自行车而感到很伤心。
Lesson 30
◆ … and four times I saw the boy's eager face turn to disappointment . 我四次看到那男孩热切的面孔转成失望的神情。
〖释疑〗句中的 turn to … 式受感官动词 see 的影响,其后的不定式作宾补省略 to 表示动作的完成性。这样的动词还有:look at , watch , observe , notice , make , have , let , hear , listen to 。
She made me sing a song at the party . = I was made to sing a song at the party . (注意在被动句中加 to)
… and four times the boy's eager face was seen to turn to disappointment .
◆ At the boy's last remark , … 听到那男孩的最后一句话……
〖释疑〗句中的 at 表示“一听到”。 at the sound of 一听到……的声音。at the thought of 一想到……。at the sight of 一看到……。另外注意介词 at 的下列 10 点用法:
1. 表示在小地方;在中点站
at the station , at the bus stop , at my house , stand at the door , change trains at Beijing , at 125 Renmin Road (但on Hazel Street ), at the edge of 。
2. 表达“在……时刻”“在……年龄”在……时间“”

5. 表示“在……方面”
be good at , be , clever at , be bad at
6. 表达“从事于;处于……状态”

7. 用在表示最高级的形容词前面。
at (the) least 至少;at (the) most 最多;at (the) worst最坏的情况 ;at (the ) best 最好,
8. 表达速度、价格、比率、等级、距离等。
at (a speed of ) 50 kilometres an hour , sell them at a low cost , at 90℃ , at first , at a distance of 90 miles
9. 在节日的对比中:at Christmas = on Christmas Day , at Easter 在复活节,at Thanksgiving 在感恩节,at New Year = On New Year's Day , on Easter Monday 在复活节后的星期一,at / on the weekend 。
10. 指空间的某一点。
My house is at the third crossroad after the bridge . 我家住在桥那边第三个十字路口。

Lesson 31
◆ … the ship would have sunk with all on board but for the effort of the captain . 如果不是由于船长的努力,那么这艘船连同船上所有的人必将沉入大海。
〖释疑〗本句通过介词短语 but for 引起虚拟语气。虚拟语气在其它情况下的应用有:
虚拟语气按谓语形式分为两大类,即表示与现在事实相反和与过去事实相反时,谓语动词用过去式(动词 to be 用 were)和 had + p . p . 。另一类是谓语使用 should + 动词原形,其中 should 可省略。
1 . 虚拟语气可用来表示愿望、建议、命令等。在下面几类从句中,谓语动词都需要用虚拟语气。
★ wish 后的宾语从句。
在这类从句中,动词都用相当于陈述语气过去式时态或过去将来时态的形式。
I wish he would try again . 我希望他再试试。
How I wish it wasn't raining ! 如果现在不下雨该多好!
另外,在“would rather(sooner)”后也可用虚拟语气。
I would rather he came tomorrow . 我宁愿他明天来。
I could go myself but I would sooner he went . 我自己也能去,但我宁愿他去。
★ 在含有 suggest , order , demand , propose , command , request , insist 等动词后的宾语从句。
I suggest we (should) set off at once . 我建议马上动身。
I insisted that he (should) take up the matter at the meeting . 我坚持他在会上谈这个问题。
The head of the station ordered that all the people (should) leave . 站长命令所有的人离开。
★ 在含有 it is suggested , it is requested , it was ordered , it is necessary , it is important , it has been decided 等结构后的主语从句。
It is requested that Comrade Li (should) have a word at the meeting . 有人请求李同志在会上谈几句话。
It is important that we (should) unite with all that can be united in the struggle . 在斗争中团结一切可以团结的人是非常重要的。
★在含有 suggestion , order , plan , idea 等后面的表语从句和同位语从句。
My suggestion is that we (should) send a few comrades to help the other groups . 我的建议是我们派几个同志去帮助别的小组。
My idea is that we (should) challenge the other groups to a friendly competition . 我的意见是向别的组挑战,我们来一个友谊竞赛。
2 . 在下列状语从句中,要用虚拟语气。
★ 以 in order that , so that 引起的从句(谓语多用 may 或 might 加动词原形构成,在口语中也常用 can 或 could 加动词原形)。
Let's hand in the exercises earlier so that the teacher may have time to correct them . 让我们早点交练习以便让老师有空儿修改。
The teacher spoke slowly in order that the students could / might hear clearly . 老师说得很慢,好让学生们听得清楚些。
★ 以 lest (以免),for fear that 和 in case 引起的从句中谓语多用“should + 动词原形”这一结构形式。
He took his umbrella with him lest it should rain . 他带了雨伞,以免下雨。
Here's some money in case you should need it . 这儿有些钱以防你需要用。
以 what , whatever , whoever , no matter what 三类代词或词组引起的从句中谓语多用“may + 动词原形”这一结构形式。
Come what may , we will go ahead . 不管发生什么情况,我们都要干下去。
这时如果指的是一个过去的动作,may 后面的动词就要用完成形式。
We mustn't be proud however much you may have achieved . 不管我们有多么大的成就,都不应该骄傲。
3 . 虚拟语气还可用在口语中,使语气显得比较委婉、客气,这时谓语动词多用“should (would , could , might) + 动词原形”这一结构形式。
★ 陈述自己的看法。
I should be glad to talk to you . 我愿意跟你谈谈。
★ 提出请求或邀请。
Would you mind shutting the door ? 劳驾把门关上。
★ 提出建议或劝告。
You'd better leave the matter to him . 你最好把这件事交给他。
★ 提出问题。
Do you think you could spare me a few minutes ? 我能占你几分钟时间吗 ?
4 . 此外,某些表示祝愿的句子中也需要用虚拟语气,常见的有如下几类:
★ 用原形。
“Damn it , ”cursed he . 他骂道:“真混蛋!”
★ 由“may + 动词原形”构成。
Carry the revolutionary tradition forward , may you gain still greater glory !
发扬革命传统,争取更大光荣。
★ 用在 if only 引起的感叹句之中。
If only I hadn't lost it ! 如果没丢失它该多好!
5 . 在It's necessary (important , natural , strange , unusual , a pity , a shame , no wonder , etc . )that 句形中,主语从句中的谓语也常用(should) + 动词原形。
It's unusual that he (should) go to school so early .
It's necessary that Mr . Smith (should) be sent to a hospital as soon as possible .
It's a pity that he (should) be careless .
It's strange that he (should) pass the examination .
注意:在 It's (high) time that 句型中,从句中谓语动词常用过去式,也可以用 should + 动词原形,但 should 不能省略。
It's high time that we went (should go) to bed .
6. 含蓄型虚拟语气。通过介词或者介词短语 but for , with , without 和or , otherwise 来引导虚拟语气。
But for the leadership of the Party , we could not live a happy life today . = It it were not for the leadership of the Party , …
Without (= If there were no )chemicals , life itself would be impossible .
For lack of water , plants would not grow well . 没有水,植物就长不好。
Without steel , there would be hardly any industry to talk about .
I was busy that day . Otherwise ( = If I had not been busy ) I would have come to see you .
7. 通过分词或者独立主格结构表达虚拟。
Not having ( = If he had not )done his work , he would not have left the office .
Given ( = If I had been given ) more time , I could have done it better .
Time permitting ( = If time permitted ) , I would watch TV tonight .
采用这种分类方法进行虚拟语气的学习,可以避免只见木不见林的现象,可以摆脱虚拟语气杂乱无章,变幻莫测,极难掌握的虚幻感。有利于形成知识体系,在实际运用中,更容易产生联想,举一反三。同时可以在学习中逐步养成对头绪纷繁的语言现象进行归纳分类整理的习惯。提高练习与检测的正确率,提高英语学习的效率。
◆ As I expressed to him my thanks , he held my hand firmly , looked into my eyes … 当我向他致谢时,他紧紧握主我的手,盯住我的眼睛……
〖释疑〗句中 firmly 不能用 firm ,但可以用 stand firm , 站得稳。hold firm 固守。

〖赏析〗在人的成长过程中,需要母亲无微不至的呵护,父亲严厉的管教也是十分重要的。文章通过对比的手法,多次使用 It be Mom who …这种强调句型来衬托出父亲为人忠厚,父亲是怎样从生活的各个方面培养孩子如何做人,如何拥有诚实、创新、自信、奋斗的高尚品质。如:对作者小时候偷巧克力的处理,让作者在学习骑自行车时要敢于拼搏进取。虽然作者当时被摔的浑身疼痛,但作父亲的只是微微一笑,笑中包含着一个人要想成功,必须靠自己的努力,而不是靠别人时时刻刻地照顾。
【思维体操】
There was once a millionaire who loved money than anything else in the world . He didn't know exactly how much he had . So he took on a little girl to count all his money for him .
It took the little girl six days to count all the money . When she told the millionaire that he had forty-two million dollars , he was wild with joy and asked , “How much pay do you want ?”He thought that because she was only a child , he could cheat her into taking a very small amount .
The little girl said , “Well , I worked for six days , so I think you ought to pay me for six days . Give me two pennies for the first day . Each day after that , just give me the amount you gave me the day before , multiplied by itself .”The millionaire thought that in this way would only have to give her a very few dollars . What a foolish little girl ! So he immediately had his lawyer sign up a contract (条约) , fearing that she would change her mind .
For the first day , the millionaire paid her two pennies , and for the second day , two pennies times two pennies , or four pennies .
Each day after that , he had to give her the number of pennies he had given her the day before , multiplied by itself . And by the sixth day , the foolish millionaire had to give the clever little girl all his money .
How is it that the little girl could have all the greedy millionaire's money ? If you are interested in it , you may try to work out this maths problem .

● 使役动词 have 句型归纳
一、知识点
① have + 名词 + 过去分词 ② have + 名词 + 现在分词 ③have + 名词 + 不带“to”的不定式 ④ have + 名词 + 带“to”的不定式 ⑤ get + 名词 + 过去分词 ⑥ get + 名词 + 带“to”的不定式
二、辨析:这几个句型里的 have / get 意思是“叫”“让”“使”,后接复合宾语。由于其宾语补足语分别由过去分词、现在分词、动词不定式来充当,所以不同句型意义也就不同。现分述如下:
句型 1 . have + 名词 + 过去分词,意思为:“让(叫)某事由别人做”或“遇到某种情况;叙述某种遭遇,损失”等。例如:
The town is going to have a new swimming pool built soon . 这个城镇将在不久后修一个游泳池。
She has had her bones broken . 她骨折了。(叙述一种遭遇)
句型 2 . have + 名词 + 现在分词,意思是让某人正在做某事,使某人某物维持某种状态。“主体(叫,使,让,听任,允许)客体做……”,例如:
The boss had the worker doing heavy and dirty work . 老板让那个工人干又重又脏的活。
I have the car waiting outside . 我让车在外面等着。(即正等着)
句型 3 . have + 名词 + 不带“to”的不定式。意思为“让某人做某事”“命令某人做某事”。例如:
The guard had the boy stand back to his father . 那卫兵命令那个男孩背对着他父亲站着。
(命令某人做某事,have 有强制性意
