高考英語一輪復習(人教版必修4):Unit 3 A taste of English humour
Ⅱ.重點句型詳解
1.As Victor Hugo once said, “Laughter is the sun that drives winter from the human face”, and up_to_now_nobody has been able to do this better_than Charlie Chaplin. 維克多?雨果曾經(jīng)說過,“笑容如陽光,驅(qū)走人們臉上的冬天”。關(guān)于這一點,直到今天也沒有人能比查理?卓別林做得更好。
(1)as在此引導定語從句,修飾后面整個句子,此時,定語從句的位置比較靈活,可放在句首、句中或句末,譯為“正如,正像”。
①As all his friends agree, he was unusually warm-h(huán)earted, loving and generous.正如他所有的朋友都認為的那樣,他非常熱心、可親、慷慨。
②I am as you can imagine short enough of money.正如你所想象的那樣,我很缺錢。
③He was a teacher, as was clear from his manner.正如根據(jù)他的舉止所斷定的,他是一位老師。
(2)up to now 意為“迄今;到現(xiàn)在為止”,是多用于現(xiàn)在完成時的時間狀語,??膳c until now, by now, so far 互換。
①Up to now, about 30 foreign companies have set up branches in this developing zone.到現(xiàn)在為止,已有大約30家外國公司在這個開發(fā)區(qū)設(shè)立了分公司。
②They have raised more than $1 000 000 for this project up to now/until now/so far.到目前為止,他們已經(jīng)為這個項目籌集到一百多萬美元了。
(3)...nobody has been able to do this better than Charlie Chaplin.當形容詞或副詞的比較級出現(xiàn)在否定句中時,往往不表示否定的意義而是表示充分的肯定。
—I think students should have more of their own time. Don‘t you think so?我認為學生應(yīng)該有更多的屬于他們自己的時間。你不這么認為嗎?
—I can’t agree more. (=I completely agree.)完全贊同。
[即境活用1]
—Shall I give you a ride as you live so far away?
—Thank you. ______.
A.It couldn‘t be better B.Of course you can
C.If you like D.It's up to you
答案:A
解析:It couldn't be better. “再好不過了”,相當于 It's the best.
2.“Well, it certainly will be this morning,” the man said, “because I happen_to_be flying it!”“啊,那今天上午肯定要晚點了,”那人說,“因為碰巧我要駕駛那班飛機!”
happen to do/be 碰巧
句型 Sb. happens to do sth.可以轉(zhuǎn)換成 It happens that sb. does sth.,但使用時要注意復合句中從句謂語的時態(tài)要與簡單句中的動詞不定式的形式相呼應(yīng)。
①When I went to see him, he happened to be away on holiday.
(=When I went to see him, it happened that he was away on holiday.)我去看他時,他碰巧在外度假。
②Joseph came to borrow my skiing boards yesterday, but I happened to have lent them to my cousin last week.(=...but it happened that I lent them to my cousin last week.)約瑟夫昨天來借滑雪板,不巧的是我上星期借給我的表弟了。
[即境活用2]
When the bridge fell down, several cars happened ______ on it.
A.to run B.running
C.to be running D.that they were running
答案:C
解析:句意:那座橋坍塌時,正巧有好幾輛汽車正在上面行駛。happen to do 中不定式根據(jù)語境可選擇不同的形式。
3.The tramp, a poor and homeless man with a moustache, wore large trousers, worn-out shoes and a_small_round_black_hat. 這個流浪漢,一個留著小胡子的窮苦的無家可歸的人,穿著大褲子、破鞋子,頭頂著黑色的小圓帽。
a small round black hat 中的 hat前有三個形容詞做定語,在英語中多個形容詞修飾名詞時的順序是:限制詞(冠詞、物主代詞、指示代詞、不定代詞)+數(shù)詞(序數(shù)詞、基數(shù)詞)+描繪性形容詞(nice, good, interesting, beautiful...)+特征形容詞(大小、長短、高低、形狀、年齡、新舊)+顏色形容詞+國籍、出處+物質(zhì)、材料+用途、類別+中心名詞。我們可以用下面的一段順口溜來幫助記憶:
限定描繪大長高,形狀年齡和新老。
顏色國籍出材料,作用類別緊跟著。
①all these last few years?所有這些逝去的歲月
②some beautiful little red flowers?一些美麗的小紅花
③the first beautiful white Chinese military jeep第一輛漂亮的白色中國軍用吉普車
[即境活用3]

A.shiny black German

答案:A
解析:考查形容詞的排列順序。
