人物：五名学生

迈克：真的，这个院子要说缺的就是一条长凳了。

或许可以放这儿？(“坐下来”，好像有一条长凳似的)不。

托尼上场，但迈克没有注意)也许这儿？(又“坐下来”)嗯，我想也许可以放这儿。

托尼：你在干什么呢？
迈克：我自然是坐在一条隐形长凳上了。

托尼：我可以坐你旁边吗？
迈克：当然可以。

(挪至一边，仿佛是在给托尼腾地方)
托尼：啊，这里相当惬意啊，对吧？
迈克：的确是。

两人坐了一会儿，看着他们的课本。

凯茜上场。

凯茜：你们在这儿做什么呢？
迈克：我们正坐在一条隐形长凳上呢。

托尼：你不妨也来吧。

这里真的很舒服。

(迈克和托尼挪到一边，凯茜坐下来)哇，真的好舒服啊！
波拉上场。

波拉：你们正坐在一条隐形长凳上，是吧？
凯茜：是啊，你怎么知道的？
波拉：我也曾做过同样的事，就在昨天。

介意我坐下来吗？
迈克看上去有点气恼的样子。

托尼和凯茜：不介意不介意。

请坐！
大家都为波拉腾出地方。

迈克却站起来，溜达到了舞台中央，然后“坐”下来。

安上场。

看着迈克。

安：你看上去像是坐在一条隐形长凳上。

迈克：是啊，没错。

安：那他们在那边又是干什么呢？
波拉和凯茜：我们也是坐在一条隐形长凳上呀！
迈克：不，你们不是！
托尼：我们怎么不是？
迈克：对，你们不是。

我想必是忘记告诉你们了。

(面带微笑)刚才人太拥挤，所以我就将长凳给抽走了。

所有的人(托尼、波拉和凯茜)都倒了下去。

国王：我没事，我只是需要(声音严肃地)重要的文件。

仆人冲上舞台，来到王后身边，两手空空，耸了耸肩膀。

王后指向一本词典或者是墙上的贴画之类。

仆人就赶紧跑过去拿了呈给国王。

国王：不对不对不对不对！那不对。

8．Maybe here？(‘sits’as if thereisabench)
或许这儿？(“坐下”好像有一把长椅)
[用法分析]
as if＝as though“似乎，好像”，在句中引导方式状语从句。

它还可以跟在look, seem, remain等系动词后引导表语从句。

(1)当说话者认为所述的是真实的或极有可能发生或存在的事实时，as if从句用陈述语气。

①He quickly ran home, looking as if there was something wrong with him.
他快步跑回家，看上去好像有什么事不对劲。

(2)当说话者认为所述的为非真实或不可能发生的事情时，as if从句用虚拟语气。

这时依据动作发生时间的不同从句谓语动词的形式分为三种情况：
与现在事实相反一般过去式(be用were)
与过去事实相反过去完成式(had done)
与将来事实相反过去将来式(would/could/might＋do) ②
他说话的样子，好像他知道她在哪里似的。

③He talked as if he hadknown(know) the fact.
他说起话来就好像他已经知道了实情。

[名师点津]as if/though后面除了跟完整句子外，还可以跟不定式、介词短语、过去分词、动词-ing形式等省略的句式。

④He raised his hand as if to take off his hat.
他举起手，好像要摘下帽子。

9．No.I must have forgotten to tell you.
不。

我一定是忘记告诉你们了。

[用法分析]
句中must have forgotten是“情态动词＋have done”，表推测，其主要用法是：“must＋have done sth.”表示对过去时间里可能发生的事情的推测，用于肯定句，语气较强。

①—Linda has gone to work, but her bicycle is still here.
—She must have gone by bus.
——琳达已经去上班了，但她的单车还在这儿。

——她肯定是乘巴士去的。

[名师点津]陈述部分是“must＋have done”表示对已发生情况的猜测，附加疑问句应依具体情况分别用did，has/have。

如果有明确表示过去的时间状语，就用did，否则用has/have。

②Jack must have read the book before.
杰克以前一定读过这本书。

③She must have attended the meeting yesterday evening, didn'tshe?
她昨晚一定已经参加过那个会议，是不是？
[语法拓展]
“情态动词＋have done”结构
(1)should have done表示过去应该做但实际没做的动作。

shouldn't have done sth.表示过去不应该做但实际做了的动作。

含有责备、埋怨的意思。

相同用法的还有ought (not) to have done。

(2)could have done“可能做了某事”，表示对过去情况的猜测，否定形式为couldn't have done，意为“不可能做了某事”。

(3)may/might have done表示对过去情况的推测，语气不肯定，意为“或许已经……”，主要用于肯定句中。

might比may语气更弱。

否定和疑问句一般用can或could。

(4)needn't have done sth.“没有必要做某事”，表示做了实际没有必要做的事。

④You shouldn'thavewasted a whole night playing computer games.
你本不应该浪费一个晚上的时间玩电脑游戏。

⑤There was a lot of fun at yesterday's party.You ought to have come, but why didn't you?
昨天的晚会很有趣。

你本该来，怎么没来呢？
⑥I can't find my key.It may have been taken by someone by mistake.
我找不到钥匙了。

或许被人拿错了。

⑦The meeting has been called off.You needn'thavecome．
会议取消了。

你没有必要来。

[名师点津](1)could have done还可以表示“本来能够做而实际没有做”，含有委婉地批评或责备的口气，是虚拟语气用法。

(2)might have done也可以表示“本来有可能……而实际没有发生”。

⑧You're late again.You could have come earlier.
你又迟到了，你本可以早点来的。

Ⅳ.阅读理解
Americans wear black for mourning. Chinese wear white. Westerners think of dragons as monsters. Chinese honor them as symbols of God. Chinese civilization has often shown such polarities (极性) with the West, as though each stands at extreme ends of a global string. Now a
University of California, Berkeley, psychologist has discovered deeper polarities between Chinese and American cultures — polarities that go to the heart of how we reason and discover truth.
His findings go far toward explaining why American cultures seem so contentious and Chinese cultures so passive, when compared to each other. More importantly, the research opens the way for the peoples of the East and the West to learn from each other in fundamental ways. The Chinese could learn much from Western methods for determining scientific truth, said Kaiping Peng, a former Beijing scholar, who is now a UC Berkeley assistant professor of psychology. And Americans could profit enormously from the Chinese tolerance for accepting contradictions (矛盾) in social and personal life, he said.
“Americans have a terrible need to find out who is right in an argument，”said Peng. “The problem is that at the interpersonal level, you really don't need to find the truth, or maybe there isn't any.”Chinese people, said Peng, are far more content to think that both si des have flaws (缺陷) and virtues, because they have a holistic awareness that life is full of contradictions. They do far less blaming of the individual than do Americans, he added.
In studies of interpersonal argument, for example, when subjects were asked to deal with contradictory information stemming from conflict between a mother and a daughter or a student and a school, Peng found that Americans were “noncompromising, blaming one side — usually the mother —for the causes of the problems, demanding changes from one side to attain a solution and offering no compromise”in dealing with the conflict. Compared to this angry, blaming American stance, the Chinese were paragons (模范) of compromise, finding fault on both sides and looking for solutions that moved both sides to the middle.
