課文疑難解析

1. This new train has no wheels and no engine. 這種新型火車沒有輪子，也沒有發動機。（Speaking; page 23）

否定句用and連接時，第二個否定詞no（not /never）等不宜省略。and也可以改為or，但此時一般用前一個否定詞即可。如：

There is no air and no water（= no air or water）on the moon. 月球上沒有空氣，也沒有水。

He never smokes and never drinks.（= He never smokers or drinks.）他從不抽煙，也不喝酒。

2.Here is how he described one of his experiments. 下面是他對自己的一個實驗的描述。（Reading, Paragraph 1 ）

here常位於句首，用於引起對某物或某人的注意或用於把某物給某人，後常接倒裝語序。如：

It’s ten o’clock and here is the news. 現在是十點鐘，下面報道新聞。

Here comes the bus! 公共汽車來啦！

-I left my camera at home. 我把相機放在家裏了。

-Here you are! Use mine. 給你，用我的吧！

3.Having realized that I could use a kite to attract lightening, I decide to do an experiment. 在意識到可以使用風箏捕捉閃電之後，我決定做一個試驗。（Reading; Paragraph 2）

Having realized that…在這裏是現在分詞短語作時間狀語，相當於After I had realized that…。注意分詞的邏輯主語應與句子的主語保持一致，即realized的主語也是I。如：

Having finished his homework, Jack ran out to play basketball. 做完家庭作業之後，傑克跑出去打籃球。

Having been given such a good chance, he wouldn’t give it up to others. 大家給了他這麼好的一個機會，他不會把機會讓給別人。

4. I was beginning to think that the experiment would not work. 我開始認為試驗可能行不通。(Reading; Paragraph 3)

（1）being to do/doing sth：開始下雨了。

（2）work: vi.

①工作，從事

Your idea won’t work in practice. 你的想法在實際中行不通。

5. This experiment proves that lightning and electricity are the same. 這個實驗證明了閃電與電是相同的。（Reading, Paragraph 3）

prove意為“證實；證明”，常用作及物動詞，後接名詞或that從句或複合賓語；也可用作系動詞，後接形容詞或動詞不定式，意為“證明是；顯示出是”。如：

In order to prove her point, she showed them the latest sales figures. 為了證明她的觀點，她給她們看了最新的銷售數字。

The fingerprints on the gun proved that she was the murderer. 槍上的指紋證明她就是兇手。

They proved her（to be）guilty. 他們證明她有罪。

6. The string was getting charged！繩子正在被充電！(Reading; Paragraph 3)

（1）get charged意為“被充電”。get在這裏是聯繫動詞，作“變得”解，（相當於become），表示狀態的改變，後接形容詞或過去分詞作表語。如：

When I heard what he had said I got very angry. 聽了他所説的話，我非常生氣。

He got drunk, so I sent him home. 他喝醉了，所以我把他送回家。

7. The pieces should be just long enough to reach the corners of the handkerchief. 兩片木條的長度可以到達手帕的四角。(Reading; Paragraph 4)

句中的enough是副詞，它可以修飾一個形容詞或副詞表示程度，其後常接一個不定式或for+名詞作結果狀語。

The room is large enough for us to live in. 這房子大到夠我們都能住得進。

Five boxes of apples is enough for the camp. 五箱蘋果足夠野營食用。

enough可作形容詞、名詞用，修飾名詞時，可置於名詞前，也可置於名詞後。

He has barely enough money to live on. 他的錢僅夠餬口。

In the fall they had money enough for Jurgis and Ona to be married. 那年秋天，他們有足夠的錢可讓朱吉斯與奧娜結婚了。

特別提醒 can not…enough這一句型表達肯定含義，即“怎麼……也不過分”。如：We can not be thankful enough to our Party. 我們對黨感激不盡。

8. This ribbon, which mustn’t get wet, will protect you from the electricity. 這條絲帶千萬不能弄濕，它可以保護你不被電擊。(Reading; Paragraph 5)

（1）which mustn’t get wet是一個非限制性定語從句，修飾先行詞ribbon。

非限制性定語從句與先行詞的關係不密切，只是起到補充説明的作用，刪掉後不影響整個句子的意思及表達，非限制性定語從句一般用逗號與主句隔開，關係代詞不能省略，that不能用在非限制性定語從句中，which作關係代詞時，既可以代替某一個先行詞，又可以代替整個主句。如：

Mary, who has been here for about an hour, wants to ask you for some advice. 瑪麗已經來了大約一個小時，她想向你尋求一些建議。

The old lady has two daughters, both of whom have become famous doctors. 這個老婦人有兩個女兒，都已成為著名的醫生。

（2）protect…from：防衞。

The vegetables were well protected from the cold. 這些蔬菜受到良好保護而未受凍。

9.The key tied to the string was put into the door to stop the kite from flying away. 綁在麻線上的鑰匙插到門裏以防止風箏飛走。(post-reading; Page 25 )

stop…from：阻止……做某事

They ought to stop the rich from robbing the poor. 他們應當不讓富人再掠奪窮人。

What can stop us from doing so if we want to? 如果我們要這樣做，有什麼能阻擋我們嗎？

特別提醒在主動語態句中，from可省。如：Nothing is ever going to stop them talking. 什麼也不能阻止他們談話。（被動句中from不能省去）

10. There is no doubt that 100 years ago animal testing was cruel but today animals in experiments are very well taken care of. 毫無疑問，100年前的動物測試是殘酷的，但今天試驗中的動物受到了很好的照料。（integrating skills; Page 27）

（1）There is no doubt that…：毫無疑問……

（2）句中that引導的名詞性從句是對名詞doubt的解釋説明。許多抽象名詞之後可以使用that從句。如：

The news that he had not pass the exam depressed him a lot. 沒有通過考試的消息讓他很沮喪。

They did not believe the report that the area was dangerous. 他們不相信這一地區有危險的報導。
