难句透视
1.Match the verbs with the means of transport in activity 1.Some of the verbs can refer to more than one means of transport.
从下列的动词中找出与活动一中的交通手段相匹配的动词。有些动词的意思不仅仅是指一种交通工具。
剖析：match...with...把??与??相匹配。match在此作动词,意为“找相似物或相配之物”;means是名词,单复数同形,意为“手段;工具”;transport是不可数名词,指“运输,交通”;refer to 意为“指的是”;more than 意指“不仅仅是??”。
2.We got on in Sydney and we got off in Alice Springs,right in the middle of Australia,more than four thousand kilometers away.
我们在悉尼上车;正好在澳大利亚中部的艾丽斯斯普林斯下车。 剖析：get on指上(车、船、飞机等公共交通工具);get off下(车、船、飞机等公共交通工具);get into指上(非公共交通工具的汽车);get out of下(车)与get into相对应;in the middle of...在??中间;right在这里是副词,表示“正好”;more than four thousand kilometers away作后置定语修饰Alice Springs。more than的意思是“超过”。
3.For the first few hundred kilometers of the journey,the scenery was very colourful. 对于前几千米的旅程来 说,风景还是非常多彩的。
剖析：For the first few hundred kilometres of the journey是介词短语,for的意思是“对??来说”,起限制范围的作用;the first few+复数名词,意为“前几个??”,要注意few前面不要加不定冠词;scenery是不可数名词,意为“风景”。 4.Suddenly,it looked like a place from another time. 突然间,看起来好像时空发生了改变。
剖析：it指笼统的环境;look like...看起来像??例如: It looks like rain.
天看起来像是要下雨。
5.Ghan is short for Afghanistan.
Ghan 是 Afghanistan (阿富汗)的简称。 剖析：be short for是??的缩写/简称。例如: Jim is short for James.
吉姆是詹姆士的简称。
6.Camels were much better than horses for traveling a long distance. 对于行走很长的路程,骆驼比马要好得多。
剖析：much作为程度副词修饰比较级,常修饰比较级的程度副词有much,many,a bit,a little,even,yet,still,no,not,far,by far等。a long distance是一个名词短语,用作状语。 7.The Afghans and their camels did this until the 1920s.
2
直到20世纪20年代,阿富汗人和他们的骆驼还在做着这样的工作。
剖析：until意为“直到”可作连词,亦可作介词。主句中要用延续性动词;如果是瞬间动词,要把它变成否定形式则可延续。常用结构: not...until...直到??才?? 例如: They stayed in Beijing until the end of August. 他们一直待在北京直到八月末。
He didn’t understand what I was talking about until I told him again. 直到我再次告诉他他才明白我说的是什么。
8.I remember the day my father tried to teach me how to ride a bicycle. 我还记得那一天,我父亲尽力教我骑自行车。
剖析：my father tried to teach me how to ride a bicycle是定语从句,引导词when在口语中可省略;how to ride属“疑问词+to do”句式,在句中可作主语,宾语和表语,相当于一个名词性从句。例如:
When to hold the meeting is unknown.=When we shall hold the meeting is unknown。 什么时候开会还不知道。
9.Traveling at a speed of over 400 kilometres per hour,the train can complete the 30-kilometer journey in eight minutes.
以 400 千米的时速,火车在 8 分钟内就完成了 30 千米的路程。
剖析：Traveling at a speed of over 400 kilometres per hour是现在分词短语,作原因状语,与主语train是主动关系。at a speed of “以??速度”。再如: The car ran at a speed of 50 kilometers an hour. 那辆车以每小时 50千米的速度行驶。 per hour 意为“每小时”。30-kilometer是合成形容词,作定语修饰journey。要注意这样的合成形容词多作前置定语。例如:a three-day trip一个三天的旅途,相当于a trip of three days。
