重點單詞1. amount【課文原句】a rich person gives you a large amount of money to use as you like.what will you do? (p17)【名師點撥】amount n. 通常用amount of sth,表示“數量;數額”,一般修飾不可數名詞,作主語時謂語動詞用單數形式。如:the amount of the money that he has wasted is about $10,000。【知識拓展】a large amount of與a large number of都可表示“大量的”,但是a large amount of修飾不可數名詞;a large number of修飾可數名詞,作主語時謂語動詞用復數。in fact, a large amount of fresh water is wasted. a large number of issues have been raised at the meeting.2. permit【課文原句】permit me to lead the way, sir. (p17)【名師點撥】permit表示“允許;許可”,是及物動詞,后接名詞或代詞;接動詞時要用動詞-ing形式,即permit doing sth;但其后接復合賓語時,要用permit sb to do sth,表示“允許某人做某事”。如:the guards permitted the prisoners three hours’ exercise a day. we don’t permit talking loudly in the reading-room. her parents didn’t permit her to go to the concert by herself.【知識拓展】permit作名詞時,意為“執照;許可證”。permission是其名詞形式,with / without sb’s permission = with / without the permission of sb表示“經過 / 未經某人允許”。如: when the police asked him why he had a gun, he took out a permit to hunt. with the teacher’s permission, she went home earlier than usual.3. stare【課文原句】his eyes stare at what is left of the brothers’ dinner on the table. (p18)【名師點撥】stare表示“盯;凝視”,是不及物動詞,表示“盯著……看”要用stare at sth;stare也可作及物動詞,但只能用在固定短語中。如: the old man was staring, thinking. do you like being stared at in public? don’t stare him in the face. he is a little nervous.【易混辨析】stare at / glare atstare at表示因吃驚、害怕或深思而張大眼睛看,常譯作“盯著看;凝視”; glare at表示由于氣憤張大眼睛用強烈的目光看,常譯作“怒目而視”。如: suddenly he saw two eyes glaring at him out of the darkness.
