式表示被动意义。

The chair looks hard but it is comfortable to sit on.

这把椅子看上去很硬但坐起来很舒服。

3) You should not go rafting unless you know how to swim.

how to 是“疑问词+不定式 ”的结构作宾语。不定式可以和疑问代词、疑问副词等连用,构成不定式短语,在句子中作主语、表语和宾语等。

例:When to start off hasn’t been decided yet. 什么时候出发还没决定。

The question is where to stand and where to move.

问题是站立和位移的位置。

Check the price before you decide whether to buy it or not.

把价格核对一下,再决定该不该买。

要想迅速准确的答对“疑问词+不定式 ”这类题目,首先要判断结构中的不定式是及物

的还是不及物的,判断准确与否是答题的关键。若是及物的,再看它后面是否有自己的宾语,

若有,则根据句意选用合适的疑问副词。若没有,则根据句意选用合适的疑问代词。如果不

定式是不及物的,则要看它的后面带不带有可以和它构成及物动词的短语的介词或副词,没

有则用疑问副词,有则看短语动词后 是否有自己的宾语,有宾语用副词,无宾语则用代词。

例:I don’t know how to do it.

我不知道如何做这件事。(有宾语it,不定式前用副词)

She doesn’t know what to do.

我不知道该做什么。(无宾语,不定式前用代词)

We are not sure when to leave.

我们不知道什么时候离开。(leave为不及物动词,不定式前用副词)

He wants to know when to go to the People’s Cinema.

他想知道什么时候去人民电影院。(不定式结构完整,不需要宾语,不定式前用副词)

Bob doesn’t know what to write about.

鲍勃不知道写什么。(write about 为及物动词短语,不定式前用代词)

4) say “Hi/Hello”to…(from sb.) 向某人问好。类似的说法还有:

say “Thanks” to somebody say “Goodbye”to somebody

say “Yes”to somebody say “No” to somebody

say “Sorry” to somebody

3. 语法说明

学习一般将来时的用法, 尤其是现在进行时表将来的用法。同时复习介词。

1) 一般将来时有助动词shall(第一人称)or will(第二、三人称) 加动词原形构成。但美国英语则不管什么人称均用will。 它表示将来要发生的动作或状态。这时常与 tomorrow, next week, in the future 等表示将来的时间状语连用。若表示强烈意图,提议自愿做某事或坚持要做某事时,第一人称I和we用will或’ll,但是不能用shall。在疑问句中,我们常用Shall I 或Shall we来问我们应该怎么做或提议为别人做什么或提出建议,而不用will。

例:He will help his sister with her lessons. 他将帮助他妹妹做功课。

We won’t be free this afternoon. 今天下午我们没空。

“ There’s the door bell.” “I’ll go.” 门铃响了。---我去开。

What shall I do? 我该怎么办?

Shall we go out for a drink? 出去喝一杯怎么样?

[注意] 一般将来时的其他表示法

一般将来时除了可以用shall, will 表示以外,还有下列表达法。

(1) be going + 不定式, 这种结构多用于口语中, 表示打算、计划、安排准备要做的事或可能要发生的事。

例:There is going to be a meeting this evening. 今晚有一个会。

We are going to listen to a talk this afternoon.今天下午我们要去听报告。

此外, be going to 还可表示说话人根据已有的事实或迹象, 认为某事即将发生或肯定会发生。

例:I think I’m going to die. 我想我要死了。(现在疼得要命)

It’s going to rain. 要下雨了。(乌云密布, 使我断定天要下雨)

(2) be about +不定式, 表示即将发生的动作。 他一般不与表示时间的副词或其他时间状

语连用。

例:The ship is about to sail. 轮船马上就要起航。

The meeting is about to begin. 会议将要开始。

(3) be + 不定式, 表示约定的、计划中的或按职责、义务、要求将发生的动作, 常用于

上级对下级,父母对子女下达命令,其被动式表示应当必须如何做,常用在通知或说明书里。

例:The students are to leave school next month. 这些学生下个月就要离开学校了。

We are to see our English teacher next Sunday.

下星期天我们要去看望我们的英语老师。

The medicine is to be taken three times a day after meals.

此药一日三次,饭后服用。

(4)用现在进行时表示将来。 现在进行时有时用来表示近期的打算或安排要发生的事情。 使用的动词往往是非延续性动词, 如:go; come; leave; start; return; arrive; move; fly 等。常与表示将来的时间状语连用。

例:He is leaving for Shanghai tomorrow.他明天动身去上海。

They are arriving tomorrow afternoon. 他们明天下午到达。

He is coming in a minute. 他一会儿就到。

(5)用将来进行时表示即将按计划在未来将要发生的动作。

例:He’ll be arriving at about eleven o’clock tonight. 他今晚11点左右到达。

2) 介词的复习

介词又叫前置词, 是一种虚词。 介词在句子中不能单独使用, 只能与名词、代词、动

名词等构成介词短语,在句子中作状语、后置定语、表语和补语等。

above着重指“在……之上”,不一定是垂直上方。

例:There is a book on the table. 桌子上有一本书。

例:

AASAAAAAABB

B is in the east of A; C is on the east of A; D is to the east of A

but/except/except for/besides 表“除外”的区别

but的意思是“除了”, 即从整体中除去一部分, “除外”的意思较为明显,语势较

强;except 表示“除……之外”,指从同类的事物整体中排除掉一部分,可与but互换使用;except for 意为“除了……只有”,是从整体中排除掉其中一部分,它所叙述的事实或细节部分地修正句子的主要内容;besides意为“除……之外还有”,包括提到的人或物,意思是肯定的。

之间”,用among表示“三者或三者以上之间”。

例:There is a small house between the two buildings.

在两座楼房之间有一座小房。

Who is standing among the students? 谁站在学生中间呢?

在现代英语中,between有时也可用于三个以上的事物,特别是当这些事物有清楚明确的位置时。

瑞士位于法国、意大利、奥地利和德国之间。

to/toward表“朝,向”的用法区别

两个介词均可与go, come, walk, step, move等表示位置转移的动词连用,to既表

示运动方向, 又含有运动的结果(即表示“到达、接触”的意义);toward只包含运动的

过程, 不含有“到达、接触”等意思。

例:The Smiths drove to Edinburgh. 史密斯夫妇开车去了爱丁堡。(表明实际已到达)

They drove toward Edinburgh. 他们向爱丁堡开去。(在途中)

另外介词与动词、形容词、名词等构成的固定搭配也须多加注意。

III. 阅读理解

A

Some people are lucky enough to be born with a good sense of direction, and even if they have only visited a place once they will be able to find it again years later.

Mr. Hopkins is one of those unfortunate people who have a very poor sense of direction, and he may have visited a place time after time but he still would get lost on his way there.

When he was young, he was so shy that he never dared ask complete strangers the way and so he used to wander round in circles and hope that by some chance he would get to the spot he was heading for.

If anyone ever asks him the way somewhere, he always tells him that he is a stranger to the town in order to avoid (避免)giving him wrong directions, but even this can have embarrassing(烦人的)results.

Once he was on his way to work when he was stopped by a man who asked him if he would direct him to the Empire Building. Mr. Hopkins gave his usual reply, but he had not walked on a few steps when he realized that the man had asked for directions to his own office building. However, he decided it was too late to turn back and search him out of the crowd behind himself as he was going to meet with someone at the office, and he did not want to keep the visitor waiting. Imagine his embarrassment when the secretary showed in the very man who had asked for directions to his office, and his astonishment when he recognized Mr. Hopkins as the person he had just asked.

( )29.A person with a good direction takes less time to find a place he wants to go to.

A woman who was a student at the Central Conservatory of Music killed herself in Beijing, for a money-changing deal into trouble.

We used to go into different chat rooms on different websites. If you wanted to meet someone on the Net, you had to go into the same chat room. But now regular Net surfaces chat in OICQ.

OICQ is an online chat software which is invented by Tencent Computer System Company of Shenzhen in February,1999. Since then it has swept the country. Its symbol is a penguin wearing a red scarf(围巾).

Net friends can be divided into a buddy list(for good friends), a stranger list(for people you don’t want to talk with at once),or an ignore list (for people you want to avoid on the Net). You can also build up family lists, co-worker lists,etc.

You can know whether listed friends are online as long as you use it.The cartoon portrait(画像)of the person turns bright if he is online. And the portrait turns dim if he is not there.

Traditional public chat rooms are often chaotic . It is difficult to focus on a conversation. OICQ can conduct a focused talk without interruptions by other chatters.

OICQ as a regular daily communication tool. “What is your OICQ number?” has become a modern topic.

Started in 1636, Harvard University is the oldest of the many colleges and universities in the United States. Yale ,Princeton, Columbia and Dartmouth were opened soon after Harvard. They were all started before the American Revolution made the thirteen colonies into states.

In the early years, these schools were much alike. Only young men attended colleges. All the students studied the same subjects, and everyone learned Latin, Greek and Hebrew. Little was known about science then, and one kind of school could teach everything that was known about the world. When the students graduated, most of them became ministers or teachers.

In 1782, Harvard started a medical school for young men who wanted to become doctors. Later, lawyers could receive their training in Harvard’s law school. In 1825, Harvard began teaching modern languages, such as French and German, as well as Latin and Greek. Soon it began teaching American history.

As knowledge increased, Harvard and other colleges began to teach many new subjects. Students were allowed to choose the subjects that interested them.

Special colleges for women were started. New state universities began to teach such subjects as farming, engineering and business. Today, there are many different kinds of colleges and universities. Most of them are divided into smaller schools that deal with special fields of learning. There is so much to learn that one kind of school cannot offer it all.

Wednesday, May 1st, 2001 Fine

Today is May Day, the International Day. It is one of the biggest holidays

in China.

In the beginning my friends and I took a bus to the East Lake Park. We played all kinds of games there.

At noon, we had our picnic under a big tree. We all took out our favourite food and enjoyed it together. After picnicking, we went boating. It’s wonderful to row a boat in the lake!

When we got out of the boat, we met some foreign friends. We said “Hi” to them, and they greeted us with smiles. We tried to talk with them in English, but they seldom gave response. Later we found they were Russians and could speak only a little English.
