I was the only person in my office who was invited. I’ve written to accept the invitation. 我是我們辦公室里惟一被邀請的人.我已寫信接受了這份邀請.[解析1]句中的who was invited是分隔定語從句.修飾名詞person,被介詞短語in my office隔開了.在英語中如果一個名詞帶了幾個定語時.常常按照定語的長短來排列順序.一般是長的定語放在短的定語的后面.例1:Do you remember one afternoon afternoon ten years ago when I came to your house and borrowed a neck-lace of yours? 十年前的一個下午.我到你家借了一條項鏈.你還記得嗎?例2:Carl still remembers one afternoon in his first year when the professor took the students to the chem.-istry lab. 卡爾仍然記和一年級時教授帶學生們到化學實驗室去的那個下午的情景.例3:The days are gone when we suffered so much. 我們以前受苦的日子一去不復返了.[解析2]accept與receive是近義詞.初學者容易混淆.其實區(qū)別很明顯的.accept“接受 .指經(jīng)過考慮.同意接受.動作者本身是主動的,而receive“收到 .指收到物品時的動作.不包含本身是否愿意接受的意思. 例1:We can’t accept your proposal. 我們不能接受你們的建議. 例2:He received a good education. 他受過良好的教育. 例3:He received a gift, but didn’t accept it. 他收到了一份禮物.但沒接受. 查看更多

In the car, I secretly had a look at him through the rearview mirror (后視鏡). He looked sad. “What’s the matter, honey?” “I’m nervous. I don’t know if I’ll be able to learn everything in the first grade. What if I can’t pay attention in class?”

My heart melted. I remembered being nervous on the first day of school and I thought I was the only student who felt that way. I was a nervous kid full of self-doubt. Seth behaved much better than I did.

We walked into his school together. He remembered where his new classroom was and recognized his teacher from the ice cream social party they had the day before. He sat down at his desk and chatted with a few of his classmates. He took a few photos of them (with a camera phone because I didn’t allow him to bring the real camera) and then he said in a very serious manner, “Mom, you can go home now. I’ll be OK.” And so he was.

A. he was afraid to be late for class

In the 19the century people from all over the country came here to find gold. Many people become very rich now. They bought all the ground near the bank of the river. They dug big holes in it, trying to find more gold.

Mike Judeson was one of those who came to find gold. He bought nearly the last piece of the ground. It was a long way from the river, so no one else wanted to buy it. But Mike paid all his money for it. He worked hard month after month, but didn’t find any gold.

Then one night, just before he was going to give it up, it began to rain. It rained for several days and nights. When the rain stopped at last, Mike came out of his small wooden house to see his piece of ground. It didn’t look the same. The holes were not there any more, and a lot of small plants grew everywhere.

“Perhaps there is no gold here.” Mike said. “But this ground is rich. I can grow flowers and sell them for money. The women in this town are rich now. They have beautiful houses and they will put flowers in their houses. If I can grow good flowers here, I can make money, too.” So he did. And soon his piece of ground was covered with beautiful flowers. Later he was able to buy more fields until he owned all the ground near the river.

“I was the only man who found true gold here.” he often said. “The others took their gold out of the ground and went away. But my gold is still here.”

1.Why did people dig holes at the bank of the river?(no more than 6 words)

                                                     

2.What did Mike find after the rain stopped?(no more than 2 words)

Last winter, when I was heavily pregnant, I was visiting my sister and brother-in-law's house and had to park in a nearby parking lot because they didn't have accessible parking. The snow was extremely heavy and there was lots of ice on the ground --- not many people had ventured out that evening!

When I returned to my car around 11pm, I noticed that I was the only car left. Nervously, I hopped into the car and let it warm up a bit. When I finally tried to drive away, my wheels began to spin. I was stuck! I spun and spun and wondered what to do.

All of a sudden, in my rear view mirror, I saw four teen-aged boys approaching my car. They were walking side by side in a line and dressed a bit like gang members --- at least I thought that's what they looked like. My car was in a very isolated area and I began to panic. I was certain they were coming to my car to harm me. Terrified, I just froze. One of the young men tapped on my window and said "Excuse me, Ma'am, can we help you? You seem stuck." Still afraid and fearing the worst, I said "I am stuck." And the young man said "It's okay, stay in your car and we'll push you out of the snow." And they did!

When they finally got me out of the snow, they smiled and waved. I rolled down my window and thanked them, embarrassed to have judged them so poorly.

1.Why did the author just freeze when the four young men walking toward her car?

A. Because she was afraid of being harmed.

B. Because she sat in her car for too long a time.

C. Because she was cold indeed in that freezing evening.

D. Because she knew they would rob her of the car.

2.Which of the following words can best describe the four young men?

3.Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

B. The kids wanted to help the author out of trouble.

C. The author would have a baby in her car.

D. The young men enjoyed pushing cars out of the snow.

4.The best title for the text would be___________

比較:The post office is just around the corner.

郵局就在轉(zhuǎn)角處。

2.…and I found myself spending a whole day in my tent.

幾天后,我正緩慢地翻越一個看來似乎安全的陡坡時,忽然間,我一下子從滑雪板上掉落下去了。

【解析1】was moving … when … dropped out … 若主句是過去進行時,而從句(由when引導)是一般過去時,這個從句動作表示一種“很突然”、“未曾預料”的含義。

例如:We were having a meeting when the power went out.

5.Being black and a woman made life even more difficult in America at that time.

身為黑人,尤其是女人,在那個時期的美國,她的生活更艱難。

【解析】Being black and a woman是動名詞作主語。

例如:Being a League member, you should set a good example to others.

作為一名共青團員,你應(yīng)當給他人樹立一個好榜樣。(此處Being …為狀語,現(xiàn)在分詞)
