重难点解析

1. Steve Jones is an environmental expert who tries to keep animals and plants from becoming endangered.斯帝夫是一位环境专家,他致力于阻止动植物遭遇危险。

The heavy rain kept us from finishing our work on time.

大雨使我们不能按时完成我们的工作。

They were kept from catching the train on time by the heavy traffic.

注意: stop/prevent…from doing sth。 其中from可以省略,但是用于被动不能省。

It is the best way to prevent such a thing happening again.

这是最好是方法,来阻止这样的事情再次发生。

There was nothing to stop her from doing so.没有什么能够阻止他她这样做。

They have done their best to prevent children going to that kind of place.

他们尽力组织孩子们到那样的地方去。

2. We human beings could not survive without all the plants and animals around us.

如果没有周围这些动物和植物,我们人类就不会生存下来。

4. We must learn to act in ways that do not harm other living things.

我们必须学会运用那些对生物没有什么伤害的生活方式。

Way后面的that引导定语从句,修饰ways。

注意way 的用法:

(1) Way (意为“方法”) 经常不用介词。 例如:

I think you’re putting it together in the wrong way.我认为你把它装错了。

Do it any way you like. 你爱怎么干就怎么干。

注意: 在有关从句的句子里,我们在way后面常用that 来代替in which。 例如:

I like the way (that) she organized the meeting. 我喜欢他组织会议的方法。

(2)way 后面可跟“带to 的动词不定式”结构,也可跟“of+-ing”结构。两者之间没有重要区别。例如:

There’s no way of prove he was stealing money. There is no way of proving he was stealing money.无法证明他在偷钱。

(3)不要混淆in the way 和on the way: in the way是用来谈障碍-----阻止你到想到去的地方的人或物:on the way意为“在途中”。试比较:

Please don’t stand in the kitchen door, you’re in the way.

Let’s not stop too often on the way.

5. If we know more about what causes endangerment, we may be able to take measures before it is too late. 假如我们多了解一点关于我们面临危险的原因,也许我们还来得及能够采取措施。

老师先问了我们几个问题再进入新课。

6. Animals and plants must have a habitqat or home which is comfortable and clean, and where there is enough food and other resources.

7. they are all used to their environment.他们都适应了他们的环境。

(2) used to do sth 过去经常做什么
