【指点迷津】

“打在某人某个部位”的句式

“打在某人某个部位”一般用于下列句式 ( 即整体,后部分 ) :hit + sb . ( 整体 ) + 介词 ( 可根据其不同的宾语而变换 ) + the + 部位。综上所述,“英语中把接受动作的人作宾语,而用介词短语说明接触到的人体某一部位”。如:

( 1 ) his sb . on the shoulder / nose / head / 找在某人的肩膀上 / 鼻子上 / 头上

pat sb . on the shoulder / head 拍某人的肩膀 / 头

touch sb . on the shoulder / nose / head 触摸某人的肩膀 / 鼻子 / 头

slap sb . on the face 打了某人一耳光

注:on 表示接受的是“打、击、拍、碰、吻”等触及动作,其中有的动作比较猛烈。

He hit the boy on the nose . 他击中了那个男孩的鼻子。

( 2 ) hit / strike sb . in the face / chest / side 打在某人的脸上 / 胸部 / 腰部

注:in 表示接受的是“打、掴、直视”等非温和性的动作,一般说来,这些动作比 on 所表示的程度更强烈此。例如:

He looked me in the eye , and asked …

The bullet wounded him in the shoulder .

take / catch / seize sb . by the hand / arm / sleeve 抓住某人的手 / 胳臂 / 袖子

注:by 表示接受的是“拉、抓、握、捏、领”等非猛列性的动作,它一般是用来指手的动作。如:

He looked me in the eye , and asked . . .

The bullet wounded him in the shoulder .

( 3 ) take / catch / seize sb . by the hand / arm / sleeve 抓住某人的手 / 胳臂 / 袖子

pull sb . by the hand / arm / sleeve 拉住某人的手 / 胳臂 / 袖子

注:by 表示接受的是“拉、抓、握、捏、领”等非猛烈性的动作,它一般是用来指手的动作。如:

I took him by the arm .

He pulled me by the leg .

如果主语和宾语是同一个人,则一般不同这种特殊的表达方式。如:

He patted his own head with his hand .

二、学海导航

【学法指要】

单元重点词汇点拨

1 . divide 分开;被分开

This river divides ( separates ) our village into two parts .

The teacher divided ( separated ) the clever pupils from the stupid pupils .

〖点拨〗divide … into = separate … into 把……分成……be divide into = be separated into 被分成 divide A from B = separate A from B 把 A 与 B 分开

separate 与 divide 的区别

separate ( 分开,隔开 ) ,侧重表示把原来在一起或靠近的事物分隔开来,分开后的部分具有相对的独立性。如:

The teacher separated the boys from girls .

The children are separating the good apples from the bad ones .

divide ( 划开,分开 ) ,指把某一整体按一定大小、比例分成若干部分,还有“自然划分”之意。如:

He divided the apple into four parts .

The fence divides their land from ours .

The class is divided into several groups .

A year is divided into four seasons : spring , summer , autumn , and winter .

2 . shoot 射击;发射;射杀;射中;射伤 shoot at ( sb . or sth . ) 向……射击 be shot in the head 头部中弹 shoot sb . ( dead ) 击毙某人 shoot at the basket 篮球运动投篮

〖点拨〗shoot 与 shoot at

shoot 作及物动词时,意思是“射中” ( 用枪 ) 打死或打伤。shoot at 是以某人或某物为目标进行射击,不一定击中。

He shot at a bird , but didn't shoot it . 他朝一只鸟射击,但并未命中。

3 . puzzled 边惑的;困惑的

There was a puzzled expression on his face . 他的脸上露出迷惑不解的表情。

I am puzzled what to do next ( how to answer ) . 我不知道下一步该怎么办

He has British nationality .

5 . generally 一般地,通常地,普遍地

British children generally have lunch at school .

〖点拨〗in general 大体上

6 . especially 特别地,尤其

It has been especially hot this week .

She is especially interested in painting .

Tom loves all fruit , especially bananas .

〖点拨〗especially 强调超出一般的程度性。specially 强调特定的目的性。

单元词组思维运用

1 . part of - ……的一部分

2 . be puzzled - 弄糊涂了,感到迷惑不解

5 . be famous for - 因…而闻名

France is famous for its food and wine .

He is famous for learning .

辨析:famous 与 well - known 同义,不过 famous 词义强,出名的地区较大,时间较大,而且多用于好的意思;well - known 既可用于好的意思,也可用于坏的意思。如:

6 . be about to - 即将,正要

I am about to leave the office .

She was about to leave when the postman arrived .

注意:be about to 这个词组所在的句子中,不可用表示时间的词语。

9 . go bad - 变坏

有关 touch 的短语:bring sb . into touch with…使某人与……接触 / get in ( into ) touch with…与……取得联系

12 . lead / live a…life - 过着……的生活 ( 日子 )

单元难点疑点思路明析

1 . The larger of the two islands is Britain , which lies to the east of Ireland . 较大的那个岛是不列颠,它在爱尔兰东面。

①这是一个非限制性定语从句,which lies to the east of Ireland 是修饰 Britain . 在书面语中,非限制性定语从句前常用逗号与主句分开。又如:

I gave him some bread , which he didn't eat at all .

He has to work on Sundays , which he doesn't like .

②The larger of two islands , 表示两者 ( 人 / 物 ) 之间“较 ( 大、小、高、矮等 ) 的一个”,用“the + 形容词比较级 + of + 名词”表示。如:

He is the older of the twins .

Tom is the younger of the two boys .

This is the more expensive of the two cameras .

Which is the more interesting of the two TV plays ?

③“the + 形容词最高级 + of + 名词”,指“三者以上最 ( 大、小、高、矮等 ) 的一个”。如:

She is the eldest of the three ( sisters ) .

Yesterday was the hottest day of the year .

She has got the most stamps of all the girls here .

2 . Many of the coal mines are about to be closed . 煤矿中的许多处即将被关闭。

①“be about to do”意思是“马上就要做”表示即将发生的行为,不能和时间状语连用。

Don't go out now - we're about to have lunch .

They are about to start . = They are just going to start .

②加上副词 just,使将来更有即时感。如:

Let's take our seats . The meeting is just about to begin .

③同样可用于过去时:

I was about to go to bed when here was a knock at the door .

④“be going to do”表示按计划安排准备做的事,或即将发生的事。其时间性没有 be about to 那样紧迫,另外,be going to do 可与时间状语连用。例如:

We're going to put up a building here .

Many of the coal mines are about to be closed next month . ( 错 )

Many of the coal nines are going to be closed next month . ( 对 )

煤矿中的许多处将在下月关闭。

3 . The southern part of the island is a separate country , called the Republic of Ireland with Dublin as its capital . 该岛南部则是另外一个国家,叫做爱尔兰共和国,首者是都柏林。

①called the Republic of Ireland 是一个过去分词短语,在句中作定语。如:

He was reading a book called“My Home Town . ”

To the west of Britain lies a large island , called Ireland .

②句中 with Dublin as its capital,是由“介词 with + 名词 + 介词短语”构成的复合结构,相当于一个定语从句。修饰前面的 the Republic of Ireland . 又如:

The woman with a baby in her arms is Wei Fang's sister .

A boy , with a football under his arm , rushed into the classroom .

In the middle of China lies Hubei province , with its capital on the Yangtze River . 但是,with 的这种复合结构更多的是作方式状语,表示伴随的动作或状态。

4 . Around 1850 , a terrible disease hit the potato crop , and potatoes went bad in the soil . 大约在1850年,土豆作物发生了一场可怕的病害,土豆全都烂在地里了。

①在表示“大约”什么时间时,around 和 about,或 round 的用法相同,可以互相替换。

②go 在句中用作连系动词。go bad 是“变坏”之意。

③hit 在句中表示“袭击,打击,使得某种事物受到损害或影响”。又如:

Last night a storm hit the city .

In 1978 , Iran was hit be a strong earthquake .

They were hard his by their failure .

The strike hit his business hard .

诗中反复吟唱的平常小事,是一首吉他的乐曲,或是一段二胡的乐曲,在你的心中缓缓奏起,引起共鸣。

Did anyone find the names of“Great Britain”,“the United Kingdom”,“England”and “the British commonwealth”which have the same meaning ? Strictly speaking,these names all refer to something different.None of them are exactly the same as any of the others.

Now as for England ,it refers simply to the largest of the three countries on the island of Great Britain.The United Kingdom is the name of the state and the official name of the country,which many people popularly refer to England.

The British Isles is made up of two large islands:One is called Ireland and the other Britain.Britain,or Great Britain,is the larger of these two islands,and it is divided into three parts:Scotland,Wales and England.

The United Kingdom(U.K.)is short for the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.It is made up of Scotland,Wales,and England (i.e.the whole of Britain),and also about one-sixth of Ireland,the Northern part.The rest of Ireland is selfgoverning(自治的)。

England is the largest,most populous (人口众多的),and generally speaking,the richest section(=part).English people often use the words“England”and “English”when they mean“Britain”and “British”.This sometimes make the Scots and the Welsh angry.The Scots are very proud of (以……为骄傲) their separate nationality.The Welsh too do not consider themselves as English ,and have a culture and even a language of their own.Ireland became part of the United Kingdom in 1801,but is soon grew discontented(不满的),and for forty years the “Irish Question”was the greatest headach of British Parliament(国会).At last,Ireland divided itself into two:Northern Ireland remained loyal(忠诚于)to the Grown (英国王室),and in 1922 the rest of the country broke away to form an Irish Free State,now the Republic of Ireland.

At first,I gave him a ten-yuan note.But the money did not satisfy him.Instead,he raised his fist,threatening to beat me.This time I had to bring out more money--a 100-yuan note.But again he was not satisfied.He drew a knife upon me .Iwas forced to search all of my pockets,but now I had none left.

I had no choice but to raise my two fists to fight back.On seeing this ,the robber was so frightened that he dropped his knife and ran away as fast as he could.

It has given me a good lesson that if we each dare to fight back,such things will be avoided.
