3．學習倒裝句的用法。
二、重點與難點
L.77
1．Hopefully tomorrow will turn out fine. 明天有希望轉晴。
a）句中的hopefully是修飾全句的狀語，意為“有希望地”。例如：
Hopefully our team will win the game and win a medal.
我們隊有希望贏得這場比賽并得塊獎牌。
“We are sure that we can finish the task in a day or two” they said hopefully.
他們倍心十足地說：“我們肯定能在一兩天內完成這項任務。
hopefully在本句中是美國口語的用法，意思是It is hoped that…。
b）句中的turn out是一個多意詞組，它的語義要根據上下文來決定，可以作“結果是……”解，也可以作“最后情況是……”解。例如：
It rained this morning, but it turned out fine. 今天上午還下雨呢，但下午天就晴了。
She turned out to be a friend of my sister. 她原來是我妹妹的朋友。
The job turned out to be harder than we thought. 這項工作結果比我們想的要難。
在以上的句子中，turn out分別作“其結果是……”“最后情況是……”解。
2．I’ve always dreamt of coming to China, and now my dream has come true.
我一直夢想來中國，現在我的夢終于實現了。
句中的dream一詞既是名詞，也可以作動詞（及物動詞或不及物動詞），意為“夢”，“夢想”，其結構為dream of doing sth.或dream+that從句。例如：
The boy told me that he had dreamt a very strange dream.
男孩告訴我他做了一個很怪的夢。
My son’s dream is to be an actor. 我兒子的理想是當一個演員。
He dreams of becoming a famous violinist one day.
他夢想有朝一日能成為一名著名的小提琴演奏家。
I never dreamt that I’d see you again. 我絕沒想到還能看見你。
3．I seldom have any difficulties. 我很少有困難。
a）seldom在句中是副詞，作“很少”，“不常”解，通常用在動詞前。例如：
I seldom go out on Sundays. 星期日我很少外出。
We seldom see him do his homework when he is at school.
我們很少看見他在學校做作業。
seldom視為否定詞，因此句子一般被視為否定句，若后面跟反意疑問句時，應用肯定式。例如：
His wife seldom spends money on clothes, does she?
他的妻子很少花錢買衣服，是嗎？
注意：類似的詞還有hardly, rarely, never等。
b）句中的difficulty為可數名詞，作“難事”、“難做的事”解，但在句型 “have difficulty (in) doing sth.中，difficulty是不可數名詞，意思是“困難”、“艱難”、“費力”解。例如：
With the help of my friends, I’ve overcome difficulties in my study.
在朋友的幫助下，我克服了學習中的困難。
The students have difficulty in understanding the sentence.
學生們理解這個句子有困難。
4．But I’m determined to enjoy myself as much as possible, even though I can’t see everything.
但我決定盡可能地玩個痛快，即使我看不到所有的地方。
句中的even though是連詞詞組，作“即使”、“盡管”、“縱然”解，引導讓步狀語從句，例如：
Even though he is very nice, I don’t really trust him.
盡管他很好，我并不真正信任他。
The farmers are working in the fields even though it is raining hard.
盡管下著雨，可是農夫們仍在田間工作著。
有時even though可以用even if代替，例如：
We shall go to visit the place of interest even if it rains tomorrow.
即使明天下雨，我們明天也將去參觀名勝。
They will stand by you even if you don’t succeed. 盡管你不成功，他們也仍將支持你。
5．It’s a pleasure. What time is it by your watch, please?
不必客氣。請問您的表幾點了？
句中的pleasure為名詞，意為“快樂”、“愿望”、“意向”
“Will you join us?” “Thank you, with pleasure”.
“你愿意和我們一起去嗎？”“謝謝你，非常愿意”。
It’s my pleasure to help those who have difficulties in their study.
我愿意幫助學習上有困難的人。

L.78
1．That is because this professor has a disease which prevents him from speaking, ….
這是因為這位教授患有影響他發音的疾病，…
句中的詞組prevent sb. from doing sth.作“阻止……發生”，“阻止（某人）做某事”解，其中的from一詞可以省略。例如：

誰阻止他們的計劃實施了？

2．Not only does he have to type out the answer on a computer, but he also gets the computer to translate into sounds.
他不僅要把答案在電腦上打出來，而且還要讓電腦把它譯成聲音。
a）這是一個倒裝句。以not only開頭的句子，常用倒裝語序，即助動詞（did, does, have|+主語+動詞的原形，而but also部分不倒裝）。除了not only…but also句型外，含有否定意義的副詞或連詞放在句首時，也常用倒裝語序。這些詞有，not, never, little, seldom, hardly等。例如：
Not a single word did I hear. 我一個字也沒聽見。
Never have I seen such a sad movie. 我從沒看過這么悲慘的電影。
Not only does she play the piano well, but she also sings well.
她不僅鋼琴彈得好，唱得也很好。

I must leave if that’s the case. 如果情況如此的話，我必須離開。
His case is a particular one. 他的情況特殊。
Such being the case, you can’t stand by. 既然情況如此，你不能袖手旁觀。
另外，case一詞還可以與介詞in一起連用，這時in case一起作復合連詞，引導狀語從句，作“萬一”，“如果”解。例如：
In case he comes, please let me know. 如果他來的話，請告訴我一聲。
Take warm clothes in case the weather is cold. 請帶些保暖的衣服以防天涼。
In case he arrives before I get back, please ask him to wait.
萬一他在我回來之前到了，請讓他等著。
b）句中的achieve一詞意思是“取得”、“達到”、“實現”，相當于動詞gain, complete。例如：
If you don’t work hard, you’ll achieve nothing. 如果不努力工作，你將一無可獲。
The scientist hoped to achieve the aims by the end of year.
這位科學家希望在年底前達到他的目標。
achievement是achieve一詞的名詞，意為“成就”、“成績”，這時常用作復數。
4．Although he had a disease of the brain which was getting worse, he decided to continue with his research and writing.
盡管他患有正在惡化的腦疾，他依然決心繼續研究和寫作。

孩子們請求老人繼續講故事。
Though the teacher was out of the classroom, the students continued with their homework.
雖然老師離開了教室，但學生們仍繼續做功課。

They continued working as if nothing had happened.
他們繼續工作著，好像什么事情都沒發生過似的。
5．Beethoven, who lived from 1770~1827, lost his hearing, yet continued to write great music.
貝多芬（1770~1827）失去了聽力，但仍然繼續寫出了偉大的音樂作品。
句中的yet是一個很活躍的詞，它可以作副詞，也可以作連詞。例如：
a）yet用于否定句和疑問句中，意思是“還（沒有）”，與already相對：
I don’t want to go away yet. 我還不想離開呢。

b）yet有時也用肯定句中，表示“還”、“仍”的意思。

c）yet和比較被連用，表示“更（加）”，“再”，例如：

d）作連詞時，yet表示“但是”、“盡管如此”。例如：

yet有時連接二個形容詞，表示“卻”的意思。例如：

當and (but) yet連用時，表示“但是”的意思。例如：

1．Some people have the wrong attitude towards people with disabilities, considering them to be stupid. 有些人對殘疾人持有不正確的態度，認為他們愚蠢。

我還沒打定注意對她采取什么態度。
What’s your attitude towards this idea? 你對這個主意有什么看法？
b）句中的considering them to be stupid是~ing短評，在句中作狀語，表示伴隨的動作。同時也可以把全句理解為相當一個具有兩個并例謂語動詞的簡單句，既Some people have the wrong attitude towards people with disabilities and consider them to be stupid.

即使他被立刻送進醫院，他也不會得救。

Grammar（語法） Inversion（倒裝）
在本單元中出現了這樣的句子，“In a lecture hall of a university in England sits a professor”。在英國一所大學的報告廳里，坐著一位教授。
這是一個由介詞短語方位狀語引起的倒裝句，這類的倒裝句要注意以下幾點：
a）句前必須是方位副詞或方位介詞短語；
b）動詞常常是表示存在和位置移動的動詞；
c）倒裝的方法是動詞全部放在主語之前，而不用助動詞，這種倒裝稱為“全倒裝”。例如：
In front of our classroom stands a tall tree. 我們教室前面有一棵大樹。
Along the dusty road come a group of visitors. 路上來了一行游人。
