他抓住绳子用力拉。

i got hold of the sack and lifted it.

我抓住包,把它举了起来。

这位影星同意在婚礼后接受采访。

reading  among the different types of bee, it is the honey bee that has most interested scientists because of the “language” they use to communicate with each other.

在不同种类的蜂中,最使科学家感兴趣的是蜜蜂,因为蜜蜂能用“语言”,来相互交际。

【点拨】…it is the honey bee that has most interested scientists…是一个由it 引导的强调句,被强调的部分是 the honey bee。如果不加以强调,则全句是:

the development of the  modern beehive in 1851 made it possible to design experiments to research the language of honey bees.

1851年新式蜂箱的研制,使设计实验研究蜜蜂的语言成为可能。 【点拨】 本句是一个简单句:the development… made it possible to design experiments …其中的 it是形式宾语,它所代替的真正宾语是后面的不定式短语 to design experiments。it作形式宾语的句型是:

主语 +及物动词 +it +宾语补足语 +不定式

e.g. i found it important to learn spoken english.

我发现学习英语口语很重要。

i think it hard to master a foreign language.

我认为掌握一门外语是很难的。

【点拨】amaze vt. 使惊愕;使大为惊讶:

e.g. he amazed everyone by passing his driving test.

令人惊讶的是他竟通过了驾驶考试。

amazing “令人惊异的”;在西方人的口中,表示惊讶,经常可以听到amazing这个词。如果有些事情发生得出乎意料,难以置信,也可以用amazing来形容。

e.g. you’re amazing. 你真了不起。

it was amazing that the boy was able to solve the problem so quickly.那男孩能这样快地解完这道题,真是令人惊奇。

有些漂亮或另类的东西,总能吸引许多眼球,就可以说是amazing things.

e.g. i am always looking for new and amazing items. 我总是在寻找让我眼前一亮的新东西。

amazed 使(某人)感到惊奇,常用be amazed at / by 感到惊奇。

e.g. he was amazed at all the colours, and all the beautiful fish.    他对五颜绿色和各种美丽的鱼感到惊奇。  we are amazed at the changes in beijing. i can’t even find where my old house is.    北京的变化使我们感到惊奇。我几乎找不到旧房子了。

【点拨】"...honey-bees communicate in their dark hives."是定语从句,其先行词

是"ways","way"后省略了引导词 “that”,也可用 “in which”,也可以省略引导词.

e.g. some english words are not spelt the ways that they sound.

= some english words are not spelt the ways in which they sound.

= some english words are not spelt the ways they sound.

一些英语单词不是像他们发音那样去拼写. he built a transparent wall, through which he could observe what went on inside.

他安装了透明的箱体,透过它,可以直接观察箱内发生的事情.

【点拨】 “through which he could observe what went on inside”是定语从句,来修饰先行词,引导词是介词through加which构成.

在定语从句用法中介词+关系词是一个重点,介词后面的关系词不能省略,但是介词的后面不用that.

e.g.this is the house in which i lived two years ago.

某些在从句中充当时间,地点或原因状语的"介词+关系词"结构可以同关系副词when 和where 互换。

e.g. do you remember the day on which you joined our club?      =do you remember the day when you joined our club?

注意:一些含有介词的动词短语中,其介词不能前置到引导词前.

e.g. the children whom the nurses look after are wery healthy. in order to tell the bees apart ,he painted some bees with little dots of colour.

为了把蜜蜂区分开,他在一些蜜蜂身上涂上色斑.

【点拨】 tell apart 辨别;识别

=distinguish…between…

= tell … from…;

= tell the difference between … and …

e.g. some people can't tell blue from green.

这兄弟俩长得太相象了,连他们的母亲都难以辨别。 they trooped behind the first dancer, copying its movement.

它们成群结队地跟在第一只跳舞的蜜蜂后面,模仿它的动作。

【点拨】课文中 troop作动词用,意思是"结队而行"、"成群涌向"

(come or go together in a group)。用在句中时,句子的主语总是复数。  e.g. the children trooped into the park.

孩子们列队走进公园。  the game was over and the players trooped home.

比赛结束了,运动员整队回家。

troop还有名词用法,作"一队"、"一群"解。  e.g. a troop of visitors (一群参观者)。 它的复数形式(troops)作"军队"解。  e.g. we must have our own troops.

我们必须有自己的军队。

【点拨】copy原作"抄写"、"复写"解。   e.g. he is busy copying his composition.

他正忙着抄写他的作文。  本句中的copy引伸作"模仿"、"仿效"解。   e.g. please copy my actions.(=please act as i do. )

你怎么能诈骗那个小女孩的钱财呢? the beggar cheated the little boy(out)of his candy.

那乞丐骗取了那个小男孩的糖。

e.g. this book will be of great value to him in his students. (=be very valuable)

the book is of much interest. (=be very interesting)

e.g. — someone is knocking at the door.

— who can it be ? 可能是谁呢?

where can he be now? 他现在有可能在哪呢?

二、对过去的动作或状况的推断常用“情态动词+have done”。语气强弱与以上三点相同,可依次类推。但表示“过去不可能”时,除了可用can't have done之外还可用couldn't have done。

e.g. he must have gone to wuhan. (肯定已经去了)

he may / might / could have gone to wuhan. (可能已去了)

he can not / could not have gone to wuhan. (不可能已去了)

can he have gone to wuhan? (可能去了吗?)

can(could)/may(might)/must/will等+have+done用来对过去发生的情况做出语气强

弱不同的推测。具体使用时请注意以下几点:   

① can一般用于疑问句和否定句, 极少用于肯定句。    e.g. ---can she have gone to school?     ---no, she can't have gone to school. i saw her just now.   

② may表推测,一般不用于疑问句;疑问句中该用can, could或might。    e.g. how could he have forgotten such an important thing? (不用may)     might you have met him somewhere? (不用may)   

③ could, may, might 用于肯定句语气较弱,must用于肯定句语气很强; may,

might 用于否定句语气较弱,can, could 用于否定句语气很强。    e.g. he could/may/might have gone to school. 他可能上学去了。      he must have gone to school. 他肯定是上学去了。      he may/might not have gone to school. 他也许没去上学。      he can't/couldn't have gone to school. 他肯定没去上学。   

④ must表推测,一般不用于否定句;否定句中该用can或could。    

误:we mustn't have met before.    

正:we can't have met before.  needn't + have + done 可用来表示“已做了多余的事”。  e.g. there is no school today. you needn't have come.  

could + have + done 可用来表示没做某事的“遗憾”。   e.g. she came here on foot, but she could have come by bus.  

could / might + have + done 也可用来表示委婉的批评。    e.g. you could have come 5 minutes earlier.     you might at least have written me a letter. 

在反意问句中,表推测的情态动词不出现在简短问句部分,取而代之的应是情态动词。句中有过去时间状语的,问句部分用过去时,否则,用现在完成时。

e.g. he must have been there yesterday, wasn't he?  he must have been there, hasn't he?  he can't have been there yesterday, was he?  he can't have been there, has he?

三、由上我们可以得出一个结论:表推测时,must只用在肯定句中,而 can只用于否定句和疑问句中。而实际上can可用于肯定句中,但这常用于表可能性,意义有所不同,译为“有时候可能”。

e.g. old newspaper can be useful.

旧报纸有时候还是有用的。

it can get quite cold here at night.

晚上这里有时候会相当冷。
