導(dǎo)讀本文講述了英國的農(nóng)民弗萊明在一次勞動中救了一位 貴族的兒子,紳士送農(nóng)民的兒子去上學(xué)作為報答。這位農(nóng)民 的兒子就是青霉素的發(fā)明者。后來,貴族的兒子生命垂危, 是青霉素救了他的命。

詳析

1. 他盡快地跑到泥塘,把一個男孩從危險中救了出來。

2. You saved my son's life yesterday.由“昨天”可先確定本句應(yīng)當(dāng)用一般過去時。

save one's life表示“救 的命”。

3. what從意思來看,本句應(yīng)當(dāng)是“我不會為我所做的接受 任何東西”,所以空白處所缺的應(yīng)當(dāng)是疑問代詞what。

4. Because he wanted to repay the farmer.由第二.段的第二句可知,貴族送農(nóng)民的兒子去上學(xué),是因為他想報答農(nóng) 民救了他的兒子。注:本句要用一般過去時,且要注意人 稱的變化。

5. No,he didn't.由最后一段可知,青霉素救了貴族兒子 的命,所以答語為否定形式。

bog n.泥塘    repay v.報答

discover v.發(fā)現(xiàn)障礙句分析

After Farmer Fleming's son graduated from St. Mary's Hospital Medical School in London,he discovered Penicillin and became famous all over the world.

農(nóng)民弗萊明的兒子從倫敦圣瑪麗醫(yī)院畢業(yè)后,他發(fā)現(xiàn)了青霉素并聞名于世。

這是一個含有狀語從句的復(fù)合句。“ after Farmer Fleming's son... in London”是時間狀語從句;在主句中,又有兩個由and連接的并列謂語動詞。

  弗萊明是一個貧窮的蘇格蘭農(nóng)民。有一天當(dāng)他在工作 時,他聽到從附近的沼澤里傳來的呼救聲他盡快地跑到泥 塘,把一個男孩從危險中救了出來第二天,一個貴族來拜訪弗萊明并表達了救子的感謝之情

   “你昨天救了我兒子的命,我想報答你,”貴族說“不, 我不能為我所做的事收取任何東西,”弗萊明回答,這時,農(nóng) 夫自己的兒子來到破舊的房門前

Fifth Avenue is probably New York's most famous shopping street,but if you go,be prepared to “window shop” only. This is shopping for the rich. There are other,less expensive shopping areas nearby,and you’ll soon come across famous stores such as Bloomingdales,Macy's and FAO Schwartz.

   And if you’ve brought your rollerblades (滾輪冰 刀鞋) ,then a visit to Central Park is a must. This is a large,open park right in the middle of Manhattan,but if you thought that people came here to relax,sit down for a few minutes and get away from the rush of New York life,then you’d been wrong.
