Module 2 A Job Worth Doing 教案
1. one road in particular, which goes north from la paz, is considered the most dangerous road in the world. 其中有一條路，從拉巴斯往北，被認為是世界上最危險的路。閱讀或朗讀時，considered后面有個停頓， the到句號是主語補語。帶有賓語補語的動詞變成被動語態后，原賓語變成了主語，賓語補語亦因而變成了主語補語。如：she was made angry? (她被惹得生氣了。) he was elected president.? (他被選為總統。) what is the baby called? (這個嬰兒叫什么?) 2.on one side the mountains rise steeply; on the other side there is a sheer drop, which in places is hundreds of metres deep. 一邊，群山陡峭，另一邊，懸崖直下，有 些地方深達幾百英尺。on one side 和on the other side是相關并列連詞，也是所謂“篇章銜接詞語”。篇章中表示語義聯系的語法和詞匯手段有五類,構成不同類型的語義銜接。前者包括照應(reference) 、替代(substitution) 、省略(ellipsis) 、連接(conjunction) 和詞匯銜接(lexical cohesion) 。后者則包括詞匯重述( reiteration) 、同義( synonymy) 、下義( hyponymy) 和搭配( collocation)等。 2. the drop is so great that anyone inside the vehicle is lucky to survive. 落差太大了，車里的人能死里逃生算是命大。so…that引導的是程度狀語從句。它例如：he got up so early that he caught the first bus. it’ such a good chance that we must not miss it. to such an degree was he excited that he couldn’t sleep last night. 3. timoteo has an unusual job---he is a human traffic signal. 鐵穆特歐有一份不尋常的工作，他是人式形交通信號燈。a human traffic signal是名詞短語作表語，是所謂“暗喻”用法。metaphor (暗喻）：it is like a simile, also makes a comparison between two unlike elements, but unlike a simile, this comparison is implied rather than stated. for example, the world is a stage. 英語修辭還有：figures of speech (修辭) ，simile (明喻），analogy (類比）personification (擬人） hyperbole (夸張） understatement (含蓄陳述）euphemism (委婉）metonymy (轉喻）synecdoche (提喻）antonomasia (換喻）pun (雙關語）syllepsis (一語雙敘）， zeugma (軛式搭配）irony (反語），innuendo (暗諷），sarcasm (諷刺）， paradox (似非而是的雋語） oxymoron (矛盾修飾），antithesis (對照），epigram (警句），climax (漸進），anti-climax or bathos (突降）， apostrophe (頓呼），transferred epithet (轉類形容詞），alliteration (頭韻），onomatopoeia (擬聲）。 4. and so every morning, week in, week out, from dawn to dusk, timoteo takes up his place on the bend and directs the traffic. 因此，每天早上，一周又一周，從早到晚，鐵穆特歐在拐角處站好位置，指揮交通。本句中的短語有：and so， every morning, week in, week out, from dawn to dusk, take up one’s place， on the bend， direct the traffic。answer the reading comprehension questions:
