新概念英语第2册重点内容Lesson40~42(最新)
新概念英语第2册重点内容Lesson40重要句型或语法虚拟语气在第1册第137-138课和第2册第16课里学习了if引导的条件状语从句的用法，不过这两课里的条件句都是真实条件句，而本课侧重的是非真实条件句的学习，即if引导的虚拟条件句的学习。
如：If you ate more and talked less, we would both enjoy our dinner!课文主要语言点Last week at a dinner party, the hostess asked me to sit next to Mrs. Rumbold. 1)本句话以时间和地点状语开头，从句子尾重来说，主要是为了突出作者所要描述的事情，即被女主人安排与Mrs. Rumbold坐在一起就餐。
2)注意在聚会上一般用介词at。
3)ask sb. to do sth.，要求某人做某事。
4)next to，紧邻、紧靠。
Mrs. Rumbold was a large, unsmiling lady in a tight black dress.1)large，巨大的。
作者用large来修饰一位女士，一来说明Mrs. Rumbold块头大而胖，二来也借此表达出了自己对对方的不好印象。
2)unsmiling，不苟言笑的，严肃的。
3)tight，紧身的。
这个词的修饰与前面的large形成了鲜明的对照效果，一个块头大而胖的女人，却还穿着紧身的黑色的裙子，这样就更显得身材不好了，由此作者进一步表达出了对Mrs. Rumbold的不好印象。
作者也借此描述，为下文的发展作了很好的铺垫。
She did not even look up when I took my seat beside her. 1)look up，抬头。
注意该短语也可以表示“查阅;拜访”，但要注意如果宾语为代词，则要放在look和up之间。
2)take one's seat，就坐。

新概念第二册第40课剖析讲解
1. d 根据课文描述的情况只有d. to find out about his operation(查出 他手术的情况)是John Gilbert wanted a bedside telephone(约 翰·吉尔伯特要床头电话)的真正目的，而其他3个选择都不是他 要床头电话的目的，所以选d.
2. a 根据课文第10行Then Dr. Millington asked the caller if he was a relative of the patient 可以看出，只有选a. was a relative of John Gilbert 才符合医生当时的心里猜测，而其他3个选择都不是医生 当时想的，所以应该选a.

虚拟语气
虚拟语气的概念
• 虚拟语气只用于非真实条 件句中，表达假设的或实 现可能性不大的情况，通 常表达的只是一种愿望、 假设、怀疑或是推测。
与现在 事实相 反的假 设
一、虚拟语气在条件句中
条件从句
主句
If+主语+动词的过去式 （动词be用were)
主语+should/would/ Might/could＋动词 原形
5. She did not even look up when I took my seat beside her. Take a seat和take one’s seat都表示“让某人坐下”，这种用 法要比sit down更加正式。 by/beside是贴近的旁边；而near是有一段距离的附近。所以，句 子中的beside可以用by互换
原形
eg:If I had time, I would attend the meeting. If he had hurried ,he could have caught the train. If I were to go abroad ,I would go to America. More practice: 如果我是你，我就会努力学习．
同时，I asked her whether she was enjoying her dinner.也是我 们上节课所讲到的“间接引语”的语法。
7. ‘Young man,’ she answered, ‘if you ate more and talked less, we would both enjoy our dinner!’
ask sb. to do sth.
They sang songs by the campfire. 他们围着篝火在唱歌.

新概念英语第二册：第40课课文详解及
语法解析
新概念英语第二册：第40课课文详解及语法解析课文详注 Further notes on the text
1.next to, 挨着。
它既能够表示座位挨着也能够表示地理位置上挨着：
Who was the man sitting next to you during the meeting?
开会时坐在你旁边的那人是谁?
There's a field/shop next to our house.
我们家房子边上有一片田野/一个商店。
2.Mrs. Rumbold was a large, unsmiling lady in a tight black dress.兰伯尔德夫人是一位身材高大、表情严肃的女人，穿一件紧身的黑衣服。
(1)unsmiling的反义词为smiling(微笑的，喜气洋洋的)。
有些形容词前面能够加上前缀un-来表示相反的意义：comfortable (舒服的)/uncomfortable(不舒服的)，true(真实的)/untrue(不真实的)，interesting(有趣的)/uninteresting(无趣味的，乏味的)。
(2)in在这里表示“穿着”、“戴着”：
A young man in a blue dress is inquiring for you.
有位穿蓝衣服的小伙子在找您。
3.take one's seat, 在指定的位置上就座。
take a seat表示“坐下”，比sit要正式：
Please take a seat.
请坐。
take one's seat则表示位置事先已安排好：
After everyone had taken his seat, the meeting/dinner party began.
大家各自就座后，会议/宴会便开始了。
4.Her eyes were fixed on her plate and in a short time, she was busy eating. 她的眼睛盯着自己的盘子，不一会儿就忙着吃起来了。
(1)fix最常用的意思为“使……固定”、“安装”：
she fixed a handle on the door.
她在门上安了个把手。
fix on的含义之一为“使(目光、注意力等)集中于”、“盯着”：
He fixed his eyes on the book, but he couldn't understand a word.
他的眼睛盯着那本书，但他一个字儿也没看懂。
(2)busy+ doing sth.表示“忙着做某事”， doing前能够加
in，也能够不加：
They are busy (in) repairing the car.
他们正忙着修车。
We're all busy getting ready for the performance.
我们都在忙着为演出实行准备。
5.If you ate more and talked less…如果你多吃点，少说点……
在并列句中，相同的句子成分(如主语、谓语、状语等)通常由同一词性的单词/词组表示，并且它们的长度也差不多，以保持句子的平衡性。
在课文中的这句话中ate与talked对应，more与less对应。
再如：
You can either go out or stay here.
你出去也行，呆在这里也行。
He wants to buy a lot of things, but he has little money.
他想买的东西很多，但他的钱很少。
语法 Grammar in use
第2类条件句
在第16课的语法中，我们学习了第1类条件句，它谈论将有可
能发生的事情，并且考虑其将来的真实结果。
它的一般形式如下所
示：
You'll miss the train if you don't hurry.
你如果不抓紧时间会误了火车的。
(主句用一般将来时，从句用
一般现在时或其他形式的现在时)
第2类条件句的形式与第一类不同，if从句中用一般过去时，谈论想像的情况，主句用would +动词原形，推测想像的结果：If it rained tomorrow, we'd stay at home.
如果明天下雨，我们将呆在家里。
即使第2类条件句使用过去时，却并非指过去的时间，所以，if 之后的过去时用法常被称为“非真实的过去”。
第2类条件句有时能够代替第1类条件句来描述颇有可能发生的事情，但比第1类条件句较为“无把握”。
试比较：
If you went by train,you would get there earlier.
如果你坐火车去。
你或许会早些到那儿。
If you go by train,you will get there earlier.
如果你坐火车去，你就会到得早些。
不过第2类条件句经常用来描写完全不可能的事情：
If I had longer legs, I'd be able to run faster.
如果我的腿再长一点儿，我就能跑得更快了。
在最后一个例句中，the weather是单数，按语法规则，在正常的陈述句中它后面应为was而不是were。
但在第2类条件句中，were 比was更为正式，与真实情况的差别也更大：If
he were/was ready, I would go.
如果他准备好了，我就去。
if I were you这种说法经常用于提出建议：
If I were you, I'd accept their offer.
如果我是你，我就接受他们的建议。
