高二英語Mainly Revision教案2
a)句中的be about to do sth表示“即將做某事”,“馬上就要做某事”,“正要做某事”。例如: don’t go out now . we’re about to have lunch . 現(xiàn)在不要出去,我們就要開飯了。 we were just about to leave when you telephoned . 我們正要離開時(shí),你來電話了。 這里需要注意的是,about常與when搭配使用,這時(shí)其句子的特點(diǎn)是英語主從關(guān)系和漢語的主從關(guān)系恰好相反,比如上面的這個(gè)句子,英語中when you telephoned是時(shí)間狀語從句,而漢語句中則是主句,而we were about to leave在英語中是主句,漢語中卻成了從句。又如: i was about to start when it began to rain . 我正要?jiǎng)由恚烷_始下雨了。 b)句中的when是連詞,連接兩個(gè)并列的分句,意思是“屆時(shí)”,“在那時(shí)”,“……然后”,必要時(shí)在when的從句之前加逗號。例如: i was about to go to bed last night , when i heard a cry for help . 昨晚我正要睡覺時(shí),突然聽到了呼救聲。 my friend jack came to see me , when i had dinner . 我的朋友杰克來看我,那時(shí)我正在吃晚飯! )句中的stood quite still短語中stood可以看作是系動(dòng)詞,后面跟的是形容詞still作表語,意思是“靜止的”,“不出聲的”。to stand still相當(dāng)于to remain unmoving and silent,用以說明句子中的主語所處于某種狀態(tài)。類似的動(dòng)詞還有sit , lie,在這些詞后也可以跟形容詞作表語,對句子的主語進(jìn)行描述。例如: he stood still , watching the old people playing chess . 他站在那兒一動(dòng)也不動(dòng),觀看著老人們下棋。 he lay awake , thinking about changing his job . 他毫無睡意地躺著,考慮要換個(gè)工作。 she sat still , waiting for their decision . 她坐著不動(dòng),等候他們的決定。 5. at that very moment , the animal bent over the baby . 就在那一剎那,獅子俯身看著嬰兒! )句中的very是形容詞,用來加強(qiáng)語氣,作“正好”,“就在”,“正是”解。例如 that’s the very thing i’m after . 那正是我在追求的東西 this is the very man we have been talking about . 這個(gè)人正是我們在談?wù)摰模莻(gè))人! )動(dòng)詞bend意為“彎腰”,“曲身”,“屈服”,與over一起構(gòu)成短評動(dòng)詞相當(dāng)于turn over , lean to the ground,例如: the tall man bent to listen to the little boy . 那位高個(gè)子男人彎下腰來聽小男孩講話。 i can’t bend before them . 我不能向他們屈服。 he stopped and bent over to tie his shoes . 他停下來,彎腰系鞋帶。 6. mrs , cousins held her breath , and her whole body went cold . 卡曾斯太太屏住呼吸,全身發(fā)冷。 a)句中的短語hold one’s breath意思是“屏住呼吸”,“不出聲”。例如: how long can you hold your breath for ? 你能屏住呼吸多久? the audience held their breath as the acrobat walked along the tightrope . 雜技演員走鋼絲時(shí),觀從們都屏住了呼吸。
