（二）阅读理解（每小题2分，共8分）

In 1901, H.G. Wells, an English writer, wrote a book describing a trip to the moon. When the explorers (探险者) landed on the moon, they discovered that the moon was full of underground cities. They expressed their surprise to the “moon people”they met. In turn, the “moon people”expressed their surprise. “why,”they asked, “are you traveling to outer space when you don’t even use your inner space?”

H.G. Wells could only imagine traveling to the moon. In 1969, human beings really did land on the moon. People today know that there are no underground cities on the moon. However, the question that the“moon people” asked is still an interesting one. A growing number of scientists are seriously thinking about it.

Underground systems are already in place. Many cities have underground car parks. In some cities, such as Tokyo, Seoul and Montreal, there are large underground shopping areas. The “Chunnel”, a tunnel（隧道） connecting England and France, is now completed.

But what about underground cities? Japan’s Taisei Corporation is designing a network of underground systems, called “Alice Cities”. The designers imagine using surface space for public parks and using underground space for flats, offices, shopping and so on. A solar dome（太阳能穹顶） would cover the whole city.

Supporters of underground development say that building down rather that building up is good way to use the earth’s space. The surface, they say, can be used for farms, parks, gardens, and wilderness. H.G. Wells’ “moon people” would agree. Would you?

1. The explorers in H.G. Wells’ story were surprised to find that the“moon people”______.

A. knew so much about the earth B. understood their language

C. lived in so many underground cities D. were ahead of them in space technology

2. What does the underlined word “it” (Paragraph 2) refer to?

A. Discovering the moon’s inner again. B. Using the earth’s inner space.

C. Meeting the “moon people” again. D. Travelling to outer space.

3. What sort of underground systems are already here with us?

A. Offices, shopping areas, power stations.

B. Tunnels, car parks, shopping areas.

C. Gardens, car parks, power stations.

D. Tunnels, gardens, offices.

4. What would be the best title for the text?

A. Alice Cities-Cities of the Future. B. Space Travel with H.G. Wells.

C. Enjoy Living Underground. D. Building down, not up.

我看我们没有必要讨论下去了。

That’s all settled. It needn’t be talked about.

二、如何听的建议

如何确定听力材料所要求听懂的人物、时间、地点等问题是听力训练中我们常遇到的难题，可以从下面几方面入手：

1.积极进行预测

要利用已知的信息进行分析、加工、归纳、预测，以达到快速、准确理解所接收信息的目的。一定要利用一切可以利用的时间阅读问题和选项，根据题目中的选项进行积极预测。

2.注意抓关键词

捕捉信息重点是听力测试中的重要一环。这种能力要在训练时多加注意，因为说话的人常常通过句子的重音和语调来强调关键词。

3.善于跳越难点，充分利用重复信息

听的时候，注意力要紧跟说话人的思路。不要因为个别单词没听清就不再往下听了。应该毫不迟疑地跳过去，并接着往下听。善于利用上下文和重复信息猜测生词的大意。

4.学会记笔记

听力材料不像阅读材料可以重复。所以在做听力尤其在听短文或较长的对话时，做些笔记尤为重要。但是，听力测试中的记应是速记，不是听写。速记要使用自己认识的、最简便、最迅速的办法（如字母|缩写、等号，甚至中文）。

在那个世纪初发生了巨大的变化。

(2)in the beginning表示“起初”，“开始的时候”，不与of介词短语连用。但at the beginning偶尔也可单独使用，在意思上与in the beginning区别不大。 eg:

In the beginning nobody took any notice of his words.

起初没人理睬他的话。

6. finally, at last与in the end

(1)finally一般指一系列事物或论点按排列的最后一项内容，或用在动词前，表示等了好久才……，没有感情色彩。 eg:

Finally, let’s do some exercises.最后我们来做一些练习吧。

(2)at last往往表示经过一番努力或曲折的过程之后的意思，常常有较浓的感情色彩。 eg:

At last, he got hold of the elephant’s tail. 他最后终于抓住了大象的尾巴。

The war lasted four years before the North won in the end.这场战争持续了四年，最后北方取得了胜利。（但in the end可预卜未来。）

三、语言点讲解

1. Jules spent many hours in Paris libraries studying geology, physics and many other subjects.儒勒在巴黎图书馆花费很长时间研究地质学，物理学和许多其他的学科。

spend“花费”，常用于下面的结构：

spend money/time on sth./(in) doing sth. 在某事/做某事方面花费钱/时间

eg: He does not spend much time on his homework.

他在做作业上花费不了多少时间。

注意区别spend与take。

Take的用法是：It takes/took/will take sb. Some time to do sth.“做某事花费某人多少时间” eg:

It took him two hours to finish the work. 完成这份工作花费了他两个小时。

2. Many of the instruments in his novels will remind the reader of Dr Benjamin Franklin’s experiments with electricity. 他小说里所提到的许多设备会让读者想起本杰明富兰克林用电做的实验。

remind提醒；使想起；可构成以下结构：

(1)remind sb. of sth./sb. 使某人想起某事/某人 eg:

Please remind me to answer that letter.请提醒我回复那封信。

(2)remind sb. of sth./sb. 使某人想起某事/某人 eg:

He reminds me of his brother. 他使我想起他哥哥。

(3)remind sb. that从句。提醒某人某事 eg:

He reminded me that I didn’t finish my work.

他提醒了我，说我没完成自己的工作。

3. By taking the scientific developments of his day on step further, Jules Verne laid the foundation of modern science fiction. 通过将他所处时代的科学发展向前推进一步，儒勒凡尔纳奠定了现代科幻小说的基础。

by在本句是介词，说明手段或方式，可译作“通过，用，以，由于”等，其后常跟名词或动词-ing形式。 eg:

This pair of shoes is made by hand. 这双鞋是手工做的。

By helping them we are helping to save ourselves. 帮助他们就等于救了我们自己。

注意by表达这种含义时与with和in的区别；表示使用有形的工具或器官时要用with，其后的名词前一般应用冠词。使用某种语言，表示用墨水、颜色、颜料等“原料”或“材料”都用in，且名词前不用冠词。 eg:

It is my practice（习惯） to do my writing with a pencil. 我习惯用铅笔写。

Can you sing this song in English?你能用英语唱这首歌吗？

It is impolite to write a letter in red ink. 用红墨水写信是不礼貌的。

4. In their efforts to survive, they find themselves on the surface of the monster itself, which turns out to be a submarine. 在他们努力求生时，发现自己就在怪兽身体的表面上，结果怪兽竟然是一艘潜水艇。

(1)这里的which引导一个非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the monster itself。

(2)in their efforts中的in表示“正在进行的动作或状态”。 eg:

He is always in action.他总是在行动中。

W seem to be in agreement on the matter.

在这件事上我们的意见看来是一致的。

(3)turn out to be“结果是……”，“最后情况是……” eg:

Though it looked like rain this morning, it has turned out to be a fine day.尽管今早看起来要下雨，最后却是晴天。

The meeting turned out to be very successful. 结果那个会议很成功。

5. They are taken on board and Captain Nemo decides not to kill them but makes them his permanent guests.他们被带到了艇上。尼莫船长决定不杀死他们而是使他们成为他永久的客人。

(1)decide to do sth. 决定做某事；decide not to do sth.决定不做某事 eg:

We decided not to go abroad for the time being. 我们决定暂时不出国了。

(2)not…but…“不是……而是……”，连接两个并列成分，如连接两个并列宾语，两个并列表语或两个并列主语等。注意当not…but…连接两个并列主语时，句子的谓语动词要采用就近一致的原则，即与but后的主语保持一致。 eg:

He can speak not Chinese but Japanese.他不会讲汉语会讲日语。

He is not a poet but a writer. 他不是诗人而是作家。

Not I but he is fond of football. 不是我而是他喜欢足球。

(3)…makes them his permanent guests中的his permanent guests用来作them的补足语。

6. The furniture is precious and huge glass windows that can be opened and closed give a view of the underwater world. 摆设很精致，巨大的玻璃窗可以打开或关上，让人看到水下世界。

(1)这里的that引导一个定语从句(that can be opened and closed)用于修饰先行词huge glass windows.

(2)a view of …“……的景色”或“看；眺望；观察”之意。 eg:

There’s a view of the river from my windows.

在我的窗前可看到河上风光。

If you stand here you’ll get a better view of the procession.

如果你站在这里，就可以更清楚地看到游行队伍。

7. All that is needed for life on board comes from the ocean.艇上所有生活所需全部来自于海洋。

That is needed for life on board是定语从句，修饰先行词all。

注：（1）当先行词是不定代词all, everything, few, little, much, something, anything, nothing等时，宾语从句只能由that引导。 eg:

The boy handed in everything that he had picked up in the street to the police. 那个男孩把他在大街上捡到的一切东西都交给了警察。

（2）all that=what eg:

All that the said was true.=What he said was true.

他所说的一切都是真的。

8. Dressed in diving suits, they walk around in this magic world, lighted by the lamps of the ship. 他们穿着潜水衣，在船上灯的照射下在这个魔幻世界中四处走动。

(1)dress ①vt. “给某人穿衣服”用于“dress sb.”结构中。dress oneself意为“给自己穿衣服”；be dressed in意为“穿着……”。 ①②③④

The gentleman is dressed in a modern coat.

那位先生穿着一件很新潮的衣服。

②vi. “穿着/打扮”之意 eg:

She dressed well. 她穿得很好。

(2)Btu at other moments you will find him gentle and weak, when he cries about the lost lives of people drowned in ships that have sunk. 但是在其他时刻，当他为了那些随着沉船一起被淹死的人而哭泣时，你又会发现他温柔又脆弱。

上面两句中的find themselves surrounded和find him gentle and weak都是find的常见用法。这里surrounded是过去分词，gentle和weak是形容词，它们都用来作宾补。find的此种用法可归纳为：find+sb./sth.+adj./介词短语/doing/done/adv./n. 。 eg:

I found the ground covered with snow when I opened the door.

当我打开门的时候我发现地面铺满了雪。

When he came in, he found a thief stealing his money.

他进来的时候，他发现一个小偷天在偷他的钱。

10. Passing through layers of coal and marble they go deeper and deeper. 穿过煤层和大理石层他们走得越来越深了。

deeper and deeper越来越深

这种“比较级+and+比较级”结构表达“越来越……”之意。 eg:

summer comes, the weather is hotter and hotter.

夏天已经到了，天气越来越热了。

四、典型病句诊断

1.病句：We are not allowed playing with fire.

诊断：We are not allowed to play with fire.

点拨：把句中的playing改为to play。本句使用的是allow sb. to do sth.的被动语态，应该是sb. be allowed to do sth.

2.病句：He has set out to Beijing.

诊断：He has set out for Beijing.

点拨：把句中的to改为for。“动身去某地”用“set out for sp.”是固定搭配。

3.病句：This machine has an electric fault.

诊断：This machine has an electrical fault.

点拨：把句中的electric改为electrical。Electric是“用电的/带电的/发电的/电的”之意，而electrical表达“有关于电的”之意。根据本句之意，应表达“有关电的毛病”，所以要把electric改为electrical。

4.病句：Columbus found out America.

诊断：Columbus discovered America.

点拨：found out表示“弄明白，搞清楚”之意。而“哥伦布发现了美洲”很明显应是发现本来就存在而以前未能发现的美洲，应用discover表达这种含义。

5.病句：We’ll have a party in the open air instead in the house.

诊断：We’ll have a party in the open air instead of in the house.

点拨：instead是副词，而介词短语instead of后面才能跟介词短语。若用instead，上句可改为：We won’t have a party in the house. Instead we will have it ni the open air.。

6.病句：What have you been doing latest?

诊断：What have you been doing lately?

点拨：“latest”是adj. ，表达“最新的；最近的”之意，而句中需要一个副词表达“最近”之意。

7.病句：I took 3 hours doing my homework.

诊断：I spent 3 hours doing my homework.

点拨：spend表“花费”之意，其结构是“Sb. spend(s)/spent/will spend some time on sth./(in) doing sth.”。而take当“花费”讲时，结构是“It take/took/will take sb. some to do sth.”。

8.病句：These old pictures reminded me my childhood.

诊断：These old pictures reminded me of my childhood.

点拨：remind不能跟双宾语，即不能构成remind sb. sth.结构，表达“提醒某人某事”时要用“remind sb. of sth.”结构。

9.病句：What have you done by the old things?

诊断：What have you done with the old things?

点拨：by之后加手段或方式，with之后加有形的工具或器官。The old things是工具，所以用with。其次，do with还有“处理”，“放置”之意。

10.病句：All which she did made us very surprised.

诊断：All that she did made us very surprised.

点拨：当先行词为不定代词时，定语从句应由that引导，不能用which。all为不定代词。其他的不定代词如everything, something, little, much等也符合这种用法。

五、类文阅读针对性练习（16分，15分钟）

You are what you eat. This saying has provided scientists with clues（线索）about the diet of hominids-our early relatives of 3 million years ago.

Studying carbon atoms（碳原子）locked up in tooth enamel（珐琅质），two researchers argue against the widely held belief that hominids ate little more than fruits and leaves. Sponheimer and Julia Lee-Thorp of the University of Cape Town, South Africa, report their findings in Friday’s Science.

There aren’t many clues for us to know the life of early hominids. The shape of hominids’ teeth offered the first clues. Large and flat-edged with thick enamel, they looked perfect for eating nuts and fruits, different from the sharp teeth one would want to tear into meat with. The first stone tools, which would help in eating meat, didn’t appear until about half a million years later.

Scientists have also found marks on hominids’ teeth with patterns very similar to those on the teeth of modern-day fruit eaters. Sponheimer and Lee Thorp tried a new method, looking at the chemical composition of the tooth enamel. They studied the enamel for the carbon-13. Animals that eat grasses have higher carbon-13 levels than those eating fruits and other plants.

What they found was that the teeth of the hominids had an in-between amount of carbon-13, which meant not only they were eating fruits, but they were eating a lot of grasses, or animals eating grasses. The lower carbon-13 levels could also come from eating certain types of insects（昆虫）.

But there are people who understand differently. Prof. Ungar of the University of Arkansas agrees the study offers new suggestions of hominids’ diet, but disagrees about the suggestion that meat could explain the lower carbon-13 levels.

One suggestion might be true though-take good care of your teeth. In 3 million years, a scientist might be using them to figure out what you eat for dinner.

1. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?

A. Protect Your Teeth. B. What the Hominid Ate.

C. Where the Hominid Lived. D. The Information of Tooth Enamel.

2. Before the two scientists’ findings, most people thought that hominids __________ .

A. lived half a million years ago B. ate mainly fruits and leaves

C. used tools to dig grass D. had sharp teeth

3. The two scientists’ findings were mainly based on the study about __________ .

A. the shape of hominid teeth B. the teeth marks of early fruit eaters

C. the grasses of 3 million years ago D. the make-up of the tooth enamel

4. What is it that Prof. Ungar finds doubtful?

A. Hominids possibly ate grass-eating animals.

B. Hominids probably had different

C. Hominids were basically fruit-and-grass eaters.

D. Hominids had lower level of carbon-13 in their teeth.

In July 1994 Jupiter, the largest planet in out solar system, was struck by 21 pieces of comet（彗星）. When the fragments（碎片） landed in the southern part of the giant planet, the explosions were watched by scientists here on the earth. But what if our own planet was hit by comet?

The year is 2094. It has been announced that a comet is heading towards the earth. Most of it will miss our planet, but two fragments will probably hit the southern part of the earth. The news has caused panic.

On 17 July, a fragment four kilometers wide enters the earth’s atmosphere with a huge explosion. About half of the fragment is destroyed. But the major part survives and hits the south Atlantic at 200 times the speed of sound. The sea boils and an enormous wave is created and spreads. The wall of water rushes towards southern Africa at 800 kilometers an hour. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned. Cities on the African coast are totally destroyed and millions of people are drowned. The wave moves into the Indian Ocean and heads towards Asia.

Millions of people are already dead in the southern part of the earth, but the north won’t escape for long. Tons of broken pieces are thrown into the atmosphere by the explosions, as the sun is hidden by clouds of dust, temperatures around the world fall to almost zero. Crops are ruined. Wars break out as countries fight for food. A year later civilization has collapsed. No more than 10 million people have survived.

Could it really happen? In fact, it has already happened more than once in the history of the earth. The dinosaurs（恐龙）were on the earth for over 160 million years. Then 65 million years ago they suddenly disappeared. Many scientists believe that the earth was hit by a space fragment. The dinosaurs couldn’t survive in the cold climate that followed and they became extinct. Will we meet the same end?

5.Which of the following is NOT TRUE according to author’s description of the disaster in 2094?

A. The whole world becomes extremely cold.

B. All the coastal cities in Africa are destroyed.

C. The whole mankind becomes extinct.

D. The visit of the comet results in wars.

6. Why does the author mention dinosaurs at the end of the passage?

A. Because they could only live n the warm climate.

B. Because they once dominated the earth.

C. Because their extinction indicates future disasters.

D. Because dinosaurs and humans never live in the same age.

7. In writing the passage, the author intends to _________.

A. give an accurate description of the possible disaster in the future.

B. prove tat humans will sooner or later be destroyed

C. tell the historical development of the earth

D. warn of a possible disaster in the future.

8. It can bge concluded that the passage is most probably part of a(n) _________.

A. horror story B. news report

C. research paper D. article of popular science

Ⅵ 单元语法讲解

一、单元语法知识归纳：构词

在英语中，词的构成方法主要有三种，即合成、转化和派生。

参考答案

I.课前准备导读

三、（一）1. She can speak many languages, such as English, French, Chinese and Japanese.

2. Does he run any slower than you?

3. We saw light in the distance.

4. How about going to France for our holidays?

5. I prefer going ballooning to doing anything else.

（二）1.C 点拨：文中所提及（when the explorers）discovered that the moon was full of underground cities。故应选C。

2.B 点拨：文中言及“月球人”问地球人：你们为何到外层空间旅行而不利用你们的内层空间呢？同时文中又说到：月球人所问的问题仍然是一个有趣的问题。将文中的这两处结合起来考虑，答案应为B项。

3.B 点拨：文中所提及的已存在的地层内部设施只是地道、停车场、商业区，故应选B。

4.D 点拨：先排除B、C两项，因为文中从未提及H.G. Wells太空旅行一事，也从未提及人们乐意住在地下，故均应排除。A项是迷惑度很大的干扰项，因为也许有许多人认为地球上人类由地面转入地下是人类未来的一种趋势，这就犯了以偏概全的逻辑思维错误。文中所说的只是支持人类转入地下这一观点的论点，是一家之言，并不一定能代表人类未来的发展趋势。所以，逻辑思维的全面性是至关重要的。故应选D项。

Ⅲ．口语导读

三、（一）1.B 点拨：根据题干。缺少“今后”之意。in future表“今后“之意，A表“在将来”之意，C是“在遥远的未来”之意，而D若是for the future则等于B。故选B项。

2.A 点拨：work with是“与某人一起工作”的意思。Work out意为“解决”或“算出”，work on是“从事”之意，work at是“致力于”之意。

3.C 点拨：指心脏的跳动用beat。

4.C 点拨：根据语意“我不确定是否要下雨”，所以排除A，表达确定之意，应是“ge sure”，排除D。第二个空“天要下雨，表示即将发生的事应是“ge going to do”，排除B。所以应选C。

5.A 点拨：Never是含有否定意义的副词，置于句首时，句子采用了部分倒装。所以还原句子，则不难看出C、D缺少be动词。而believe应构成believe in doing sth结构，所以排除B。

6.C 点拨：本句语意是“人活着必须有信念”，用to do做后置定语修饰不定代词something。同时believe表示“相信”之意，believe in表示“信仰”之意，所以选C。

7.B 点拨：本句的意思是“你想出的处理污水的办法是可行的”。“处理污水”用短语“deal with”。而do为及物动词，其后应有宾语，排除C。同时这里that引导定从，指代先行词the way作定语从句中thought of 的宾语。因此定语从句还原后应是“you thought of a way to deal/of dealing with the polluted water”，所以选B。

8.D 点拨：“I believe so, I believe not, I don’t believe so”句型表示个人看法。

9.A 点拨：“I think so, I think not, I don’t think so”也表示个人看法。

10.D 点拨：need为实义动词时，其后跟带to的不定式。根据don’t need判断B、C中的need应为实义动词，所以其结构不符合need为情态动词，此时need后应跟动词原形，所以排除A。

（二）1～5 D G E C B

Ⅳ．阅读指导

五、这是一篇介绍有关科学家通过研究300万年前古人类牙齿结构推测其所吃食物的科普类短文。

1.B 点拨：这是一道对通篇文章主旨大意进行推断、归纳的题目。A、C两项内容文中均未提及，D项太片面，故应排除。

2.B 点拨：文中第二段第一句提及：…two researchers argue against the widely held belief that hominids ate little more than fruits and leaves.故选B。A项内容与文意不符，C项内容未提及，D项是作为反证，说明hominids当时是不具备的。

3.D 点拨：根据文意，这两位科研工作者的发现是根据hominids牙齿的形状，尤其是厚厚的珐琅质结构而推断出的，故应选D。

4.A 点拨；由五、六两段推知。

这是一篇科普文章，假想2094年，由于彗星的碎片撞击地球，将会给世人所带来的灾难。人类是否真的会像恐龙一样在地球上消亡呢？

5.C 点拨：A项在第四段有交代；B项在第三段有描述，关键词totally; D项在第四段有描述；惟独C项未提及，故应选C。

6.C 点拨：A项文章未交代；B项跟最后一段不符合；D项答非所问；C项中indicates意思是“暗示有……的可能性”，故选C。

7.D 点拨：A项不妥，因为文中没有精确指述；B、C项不妥，因为文章只是科幻文章，并非事实。D项意为警告人类，假如灾难真的发生了，我们该怎么办。故应选D。

8.D 点拨：根据文章的大意，不难推出这属于科普方面的文章。故应选D。

Ⅴ.综合技能导读

三、（一）1.B surprising 意为“令人惊奇的”的，surprised意为“感到惊奇的”，根据语意排除C、D。从第二个空排除A，因为home是副词，“给家里写信”不加介词to。故应选B。

2.C 点拨：“dream of doing sth”是固定短语，意为“梦想做某事。

3.B 点拨：alive意为“活着的”，作后置定语。Living常作前置定语。Live作前置定语，一般不指人。lively意为“生动，活泼，充满朝气的”。因此根据语意和结构应选B。

4.D 点拨：本句是强调句型，强调时间状语“in 2,000”。根据强调句型结构应选D。

5.A 点拨：本题中的experience应译作“经历”，此时它是可数名词。经历应是令人兴奋的，故应选A。

6.A 点拨：fix one’s attention on sth. 是固定短语，意为“把注意力集中在某事上”此题用了它的被动语态。其他选项都不符合结构需要，应排除。

7.B 点拨：make oneself done是“使某人自己被……”之意，这里过去分词done用来作宾补。本句意思是“因为学生如此吵闹，老师不能使自己被注意到”，所以选B。

8.C 点拨：succeed in doing sth. 结构不符合本

JULES VERNE: THE FATHER OF SCIENCE FICTION

Jules Verne was born in 1828, in France. His father sent him to Paris to study law, but instead Verne developed his love for the theatre. To make a living, Verne had to write and sell stories. Jules spent many hours in Paris libraries studying geology, physics and many other subjects. He used the latest ideas and technical inventions of his day in his books. Many of the instruments in his novels will remind the reader of Dr Benjamin Franklin’s experiments with electricity. By taking the scientific developments of his day one step further, Jules Verne laid the foundation of modern science fiction. He also suggested how inventions could be used in the future to allow man to do things that were considered impossible in his own time. Jules Verne died in 1905, long before any of his dreams came true.

At the beginning of 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, one of his most famous novels, ships are disappearing all over the world and it is believed to be caused by a sea monster. Dr Aronnax, his servant and a Canadian whale hunter set out to find the monster. After months of searching they find it and in the collision that follows, the three men are thrown overboard. In their efforts to survive, they find themselves on the surface of the monster itself, which turns out to be a submarine. They are taken on board and Captain Nemo decides not to kill them but makes them his permanent guests. From that day on they start planning their escape.

Captain Nemo takes them on a voyage across the oceans. The Nautilus is an extraordinary ship. The furniture is precious and huge glass windows that can be opened and closed give a view of the underwater world. The ship is also very strong and protected with thick iron plates. All that is needed for life on board comes from the ocean. Electricity is used for light, heating, power and to defend the ship against attacks. The food aboard the Nautilus is all sea food.

Dressed in diving suits, they walk around in this magic world, lighted by the lamps of the ship. They find themselves surrounded by colourful rocks, fishes, shells and plants, all waving and moving slowly in the blue waters.

Readers have wondered about the character of Captain Nemo ever since the book was published. You could say he is someone you will neither like nor dislike. You might think that he is a cruel man because he keeps Aronnax and the others as prisoners and destroys ships. But at other moment you will find him gentle and weak, when he cries about the lost lives of people drowned in ships that have sunk.

Another wonderful story is that of Journey to the Center of the Earth. The story begins with the discovery of an ancient document in an old book. It explains how to find a secret road to the centre of the earth. Two men decide to go on this adventure and travel to Iceland, where they enter the earth through a chimney in an extinct volcano. Their guide leads them through a narrow passage deep into the earth. Passing through layers of coal and marble they go deeper and deeper. They drink the water from a boiling underground river and after many days they reach a huge lake or underground ocean. Walking along its shores they go through forests of mushrooms and plants that lived on the earth millions of years ago. They build a raft to cross the sea and are attacked by ancient sea creatures. In the end, their raft is drawn into a fast steam and with ever increasing speed and temperatures they are shot out of a volcano in southern Italy.

INTERGRATING SKILLS

Reading and writing

THE STORY OF DR FRANKENSTEIN

No human being could have passed a happier childhood than myself. Instead of children’s play and adventure, I was driven by a desire to learn. I wasn’t interested in the structure of language or law. I wanted to learn the secrets of heaven and earth. My father was not scientific, so I had to look for a road without having a map. I entered the search for wisdom and dreamt of finding a way to cure any disease.

I read all the books I could find that threw light upon these matters. I studied maths and physics and the works of many learned author. At the age of seventeen, my parents sent me to university. But I found all that was taught at university very disappointing and decided that I would pioneer a new way, explore unknown powers, and unfold to the world the deepest mysteries of nature.

One of the phenomena that attracted my attention was the structure of the human body, and any animal that was alive. I often asked myself, where the principle of life came from. After days and nights of incredible labour I discovered the cause of life and how to create life from dead matter.

When I found this amazing power placed within my hands, I hesitated a long time how I should use it. Although I knew how to create life, how to prepare a body for it with all its muscles and organs still remained a difficult job. I doubted at first whether I should try to create a being like myself, or one of simpler organization. But soon I dreamt of nothing else but the creation of a creature as complete and wonderful as man.

It was with these feelings that I began the creation of a human being. As the small size of the parts slowed down my speed, I decided to make the being much larger than man; about eight feet in height. With these ideas, spending some months collecting and arranging materials, I began.

Who can imagine the horror of my secret work? I collected bones from graves and cut up dead bodies. Many of my materials came from butcher shops and hospitals. It was on a night in November that I looked at the result of my work. I collected my instruments around me, with which I would light the flame of life into the dead thing that lay at my feet. It was already one in the morning, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open.

I looked at the terrible monster that I had created. He opened the curtain of the bed; and his eyes, if eyes they may be called, looked at me. His hair was black and his teeth as white as snow, but his skin was yellow. When his thin black lips opened, nothing came out some strange sounds. While unfinished, he was ugly, but now he was a living horror.

典型病句诊断

1.病句：We are not allowed playing with fire.

诊断：We are not allowed to play with fire.

点拨：把句中的playing改为to play。本句使用的是allow sb. to do sth.的被动语态，应该是sb. be allowed to do sth.

2.病句：He has set out to Beijing.

诊断：He has set out for Beijing.

点拨：把句中的to改为for。“动身去某地”用“set out for sp.”是固定搭配。

3.病句：This machine has an electric fault.

诊断：This machine has an electrical fault.

4.病句：Columbus found out America.

诊断：Columbus discovered America.

点拨：found out表示“弄明白，搞清楚”之意。而“哥伦布发现了美洲”很明显应是发现本来就存在而以前未能发现的美洲，应用discover表达这种含义。

5.病句：We’ll have a party in the open air instead in the house.

点拨：instead是副词，而介词短语instead of后面才能跟介词短语。若用instead，上句可改为：We won’t have a party in the house. Instead we will have it ni the open air.。

6.病句：What have you been doing latest?

诊断：What have you been doing lately?

点拨：“latest”是adj. ，表达“最新的；最近的”之意，而句中需要一个副词表达“最近”之意。

7.病句：I took 3 hours doing my homework.

诊断：I spent 3 hours doing my homework.

点拨：spend表“花费”之意，其结构是“sb. spend(s)/spent/will spend some time on sth./(in) doing sth.”。而take当“花费”讲时，结构是“It take/took/will take sb. some to do sth.”。

8.病句：These old pictures reminded me my childhood.

诊断：These old pictures reminded me of my childhood.

点拨：remind不能跟双宾语，即不能构成remind sb. sth.结构，表达“提醒某人某事”时要用“remind sb. of sth.”结构。

9.病句：What have you done by the old things?

诊断：What have you done with the old things?

点拨：by之后加手段或方式，with之后加有形的工具或器官。The old things是工具，所以用with。其次，do with还有“处理”，“放置”之意。

10.病句：All which she did made us very surprised.

诊断：All that she did made us very surprised.

点拨：当先行词为不定代词时，定语从句应由that引导，不能用which。all为不定代词。其他的不定代词如everything, something, little, much等也符合这种用法。

单元语法知识归纳：构词

在英语中，词的构成方法主要有三种，即合成、转化和派生。

1.合成法：把两个或两个以上独立的词合成一个新词的方法叫合成法，也叫合词法。

（1）合成名词highway 公路

（2）合成形容词hand-made 手工制作的 good-looking相貌好看的 dark-blue 深蓝

（3）合成动词ill-treat 虐待 mass-produce 大规模生产 safe guard 保卫

（4）合成副词however 然而 downstairs 在楼下

（5）合成代词 anybody nobody something

2.转化法：转化是指词由一种词类转化为另一种词类。

（1）动词转化为名词

常用give, take, have, make等动词与其搭配构成动词词组，表示一个动作。 eg:

give a smile 微笑 give a tick 踢 take a seat 就座

take a bath 洗澡 have a swim 游泳 have a talk谈话 make a wish 许愿

（2）形容词转化为副词

How long is the road？那条路有多条？（形容词）

How long have you been working there? 你在那里工作了多久？（副词）

（3）形容词转化为动词 eg:

The storm slowed down to half its speed. 风暴速度减慢了一半。

The girls gradually quieted down. 女孩子们慢慢安静了下来了。

（4）名词转化为动词 eg:

The hall can seat two thousand people.大厅能坐2000人。

The passengers have booked their plane ticket.旅客们已经订了飞机票。

（5）形容词转化为名词

Something has gone wrong with the tool.工具出了点毛病。（形容词）

Little children didn’t know the difference between right and wrong.小孩子不能辨别是非。（名词）

3.派生法

派生是由词根加词缀（前缀、后缀）构成新词。除少数前缀外，前缀一般只改变词的意义，不改变词性；后缀一般只改变词性，不引起词义的变化。

前缀例词

a-构成形容词、副词 Alive（活着的）, abroad（在国外）, alone

dis-（否定） discourage, disagree

en-（使可能） enrich, enable(使成为可能)，endanger

in-(ill, im-, ir-)（不，非） invisible(看不见), illogical（不合逻辑的）, impossible, irregular（不规则的）

inter-（相互，之间） international, interchange

mis-（误） mislay, misunderstand（误会）,mislead（误导）

re-（重复，再） recycle（循环）,remarry, rewrite

tele-（远程） telephone, telegraph, telecommunications（电信）

un-（不），non-（不，非） unfair, unknown, noon-conductor（非导体）

后缀例词

背景知识

Jules Verne

Jules Verne(1828~1905),French writer and pioneer of science fiction,whose best known works today are Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea(1870)and Around the World in Eighty Days(1873).

Jules Gabriel Verne was born on February 8,1828,in Nantes,France.His parents were of a seafaring tradition,a factor which influenced his writings.As a boy,Jules Verne ran off to be a cabin boy on a merchant ship,but he was caught and returned to his parents.In 1847 Jules was sent to study law in Paris.While there,however,his passion for the theatre grew.Later in 1850,Jules Verne’s first play was published.His father was outraged when he heard that Jules was not going to continue law,so he discontinued the money he was giving him to pay for his expenses in Paris.This forced Verne to make money by selling his stories.

After spending many hours in Paris libraries studying geology,engineering,and astronomy, Jules Verne published his first novel Five Weeks in a Balloon(1863).Soon he started writing novels such as Journey to the Center of the Earth(1864),From the Earth to the Moon(1866),and Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea(1873).

Because of the popularity of these and other novels,Jules Verne became a very rich man.In 1876,he bought a large yacht and sailed around Europe.His last novel The Invasion of the Sea appeared in 1905.

Jules Verne died in the city of Amines on March 24,1905.

课文译文

儒勒凡尔纳：科幻小说的鼻祖

儒勒凡尔纳在1828年出生于法国。他的父亲送他去巴黎学习法律，但儒勒却对戏剧产生了热爱。为了谋生，儒勒不得不从事写作并卖掉自己的作品。凡尔纳花了好多时间在巴黎图书馆研究地质学、物理学和其他学科。在他的书中他应用了他那个时代最新的理念和科学发明。他小说中出现的好多工具都会使读者想起本杰明富兰克林有名的关于电的实验。通过把他那个年代的科学发展再往前推一步，儒勒凡尔纳奠定了现代科幻小说的基础。他还提出发明在将来会得到怎么样的应用，而这些用法在他那个年代是被认为不可能的。儒勒凡尔纳死于1905年，远远早于他任何一个梦想的实现。

在《海底两万里》这本书的一开始,那是他的一部有名的小说,世界各地的船只突然失踪,而且这被认为是一只大海怪造成的。艾瑞纳克斯博士，他的仆人以及一位加拿大的捕鲸者开始去寻找那个怪物。在好几个月的搜寻之后,他们终于找到了它。在随后的搏斗中他们三个人被扔进水中。在他们挣扎求生当中，他们发现自己在一个怪物的表面上，而那怪物其实是一艘潜水艇。他们被带上船，尼莫船长不打算杀掉他们,相反却和他们结成永久的朋友。从那天起,他们就计划逃离。

尼莫船长带着他们在海洋里航行。诺特拉斯是一只非凡的船。里面的家具非常的珍贵。大大的窗户可以打开也可以关闭,这使我们能欣赏到海底世界。这只船还非常结实，外面被厚厚的铁板保护着。船上所需要的一切都来自于海洋。电被用来照明,取暖,提供动力和使船抵御外来袭击。

身穿潜水衣，被船的灯光照明，他们行走在这个魔幻世界里。他们发现自己被五彩的岩石、各种各样的鱼、贝类和海底植物所包围。这些海底生物在碧蓝的海水中摇曳和慢慢移动。

自从这本书一出版，读者们就对尼莫船长的性格感到扑朔迷离。你很难说喜不喜欢他。你或许认为他是一个残酷的人，因为他不仅把艾瑞纳克斯和其他人囚禁起来，还破坏船只。然而在其他时候，比如说当他为在沉船中溺死的人哭泣的时候，你又会认为他很温柔和脆弱。

另外一部精彩小说是《地心探险记》。这部小说是以一部古书里的古老文献的发现为开始的。他向人们解释了怎样发现去地心的路。两位男子决心去冰岛冒险，在那里他们通过一个死活山口走进了地底。他们的导游带着他们穿越一个狭长的通道来到了地下。经过一个煤层和大理石层，他们已经走得越来越深了。他们喝地下河流的沸腾的水。几天过后，他们来到了地下湖和地下海洋。沿着它们的岸边走，他们穿越了一个大森林，里面的蘑菇和植物已经在地球上生存了几百万年了。为了穿越海洋，他们造了一个小筏子但是在海上还是受到了古代海怪的袭击。最后，他们的小筏子被卷入了急流。伴随着越来越高的速度和温度，他们被位于意大利南部的火山口喷出。

弗兰肯斯坦的故事

没有人会比我有一个更加快乐的童年。不同于其他孩子的玩耍和冒险，我有一种强烈的求知欲。我对于语言结构和法律一点都不感兴趣。我想知道地球和天空的奥秘。我的父亲没有科学方面的专业知识，所以我必须在没有人指点迷津的基础上自己去寻找出路。我开始寻求智慧，并梦想找到治愈我疾病的办法。

我阅读了所有有关这件事的书籍。我研究了数学和物理还有其他知识渊博的作者的书。在我17岁的时候，我的父母送我上了大学。但是我发现大学里所教的东西非常地令人失望。因而我决定开创一种新的方法，探索未知的力量，并把大自然最为神奇的秘密揭示给世人。

一个吸引我注意力的现象是人类的身体构造，和任何活着的动物的身体构造。我经常问自己，生命的法则是来自于哪里呢？在无数个日日夜夜的极辛苦劳碌中，我发现了人类的起源和怎样从死去的物质中创造新生命。

当我发现我手中拥有这样神奇的力量之后，我犹豫了好久究竟应怎样用它。尽管我知道怎样创造生命，怎样为这个生命准备好它的肌肉和器官，这仍然是一项困难的工作。一开始我还犹豫是否要创造一个像我一样的人，或者只是几个简单的器官。但是很快我便什么也不想，只想创造一个像人一样完整和神奇的生物。

正是怀着这些情感我开始了我创造人的过程。由于人的身体的各部分过小延误了我的速度，我决定把这个人的尺寸做的比平常人更大一些:高有八尺。在这种想法的引导下，花了好几个月搜集和整理材料，我才真正开始。

谁能想到我这项秘密工作的恐怖？我从坟墓里搜集死人的骨头，并把死人的尸体切开。我的好多工具都是来自于肉铺和医院。是在一个11月份的夜晚，我看到了我工作的结果。我把我的器具放在我的身旁，用这些器具，我可以使我脚底下的这个死了的生物复活。直到第二天一早，我的蜡烛快熄灭的时候。我才看到那个生物睁开他那黄色污浊的眼睛。

我看着我创造的这个怪物。它揭开了床单，而且它的眼睛，如果能被称之为眼睛的话，看着我。他的头发很黑，牙齿像雪一样白，但是皮肤焦黄。当它的薄薄的黑色嘴唇张开的时候，只有一些怪异的声音发出。当他还没被完工的时候它就够丑陋的了，而现在它就是一个活生生的活着的梦魇。
