段落精讲:
第一、词汇精讲
1. contentment
释义:a feeling of happiness or satisfaction ( from Oxford )
[adj. ]满足
范例:He found contentment in reading novels.
他从看小说当中得到满足。
Happiness consists in contentment.
知足常乐。
2. produce
释义:cause (sth) to occur; create ( from Oxford )
[vt.] 引起(某事物);产生
范例:The medicine produced a violent reaction.
这药物引起了剧烈的反应。
His announcement produced gasps of amazement.
他宣布的消息引起了一片惊叹声。
第二、加分短语
1. in front of sb:在某人面前,当着某人的面
范例:He enjoys posturing in front of an audience.
他喜欢在观众面前装腔作势。
The good harvest scene emerges in front of us.
丰收景象在我们面前展现出来。
2. in a bad mood:情绪不好,心情不好
范例:He could tell she was in a bad mood, and tried to laugh her out of it.
他看出她心情不好, 想逗她笑好让她不再想烦恼的事.
The cancellation of the plan puts him in a bad mood.
计划的取消使他很不开心。
3. once more:再一次,又一次
范例:Could we go through (ie rehearse) Act 2 once more?
我们重排一次第二幕的戏好吗?
Arrive late once more and you're fired.
你再迟到一次,就把你开除。
第二、失分短语
1. with long steps
注释:此语的意思是“大步地”。这个短语有2个失分处,一个是“step”,另一个是“long”。走路是两条腿在交替,因此要“steps”,用复数形式。大步地走是表示脚迈出的距离远,因此要用“long”,来表示,不要用big。介词with在这里表示“伴随”。
2. on his short little legs
注释:此语的意思是用“他那短小的腿”。这里有2个失分处。一个是“legs”,一个是“his short little”。On这个介词在这里表示方式,意思是“借助......,用......”。
走路是用两条腿交替进行,因此要用leg的复数形式。表示“短小”,不要用作short little。
在英语中,表示大小的形容词和表示长短的形容词同时修饰一个名词时,表示长短的要位于表示大小的前面。这里short是表示“长短高矮的”,little是表示“大小的”。
3. back at the workhouse
注释:此语的意思是“回到救济院”,介词要用at,不要用in。
第三、写作语汇
1. see the board:见董事会
注释:see在这里是“会见,会晤”的意思。
2. sit around a table:围做在一张桌子周围
3. produce the feeling of contentment:滋生满足感
4. walk on:继续走
注释:on在这里的意思是“继续”。
第四、语法点拨
1. Mr Bumble walked on with long steps,with Oliver on his short little legs running beside him.
要点解析:划线部分是由介词with而引导的独立主格结构,结构是with+主语+Ving。这里Oliver是名词,谓语是one his short little legs running beside him。在这里省略了谓语was。
用介词引导的独立主格结构与主句逻辑关系紧密。
2. He stood in front of ten fat men who were sitting around a table.
要点解析:划线部分是由关系代词who引导的限定性定语从句来修饰指代人的且在定语从句中做主语的先行词men,此时,关系代词who不能省略。
第五、写作句式
1. There is no doubt that + 句子(毫无疑问的...)
例句:There is no doubt that our educational system leaves something to be desired.
毫无疑问的我们的教育制度令人不满意。
2. An advantage of... is that + 句子 (...的优点是...)
例句:An advantage of using the solar energy is that it won't create (produce) any pollution.
使用太阳能的优点是它不会制造任何污染。
