10.After the war, Cook married and set up home in London. 战后，库克结婚并在伦敦安
家。

set up home“安家”，“成家”之意。

鲍勃·吉尔道夫不是影星，而是流行歌星。

不是你，而是我出了错。

13.It was just over 32 meters in length 船的全长32米。

表示物体的长，宽，高，深，可以用形容词，(long , high , tall , wide , deep……)表示，也可以用介词in+名词(length , width , height , depth……) 来表示。

例如：
The cave is 3 meters high, 4 meters long and 2 meters wide.此句相等于The cave is 3 meters in height, 4 meters in length and 2 meters in depth.
14．并列连词as well as 是“除……以外”，“不但……而且”的意思。

连接两个相等的成分。

其强调的重点是as well as前面的部分，而不是后面的部分，例如：
We have to travel by night as well as by day.
我们不得不日夜赶路。

（强调的是by night）
上面这句话可写成We have to travel not only by day but also by night . 由此看来并列
连词“not only …but also”与as well as意思相同，但“not only …but also”强调
的是后者。

注意当as well as连接两个并列主语时句中的谓语动词应和as well as前面的主语一
致。

例如：
He, as well as I, is a League member. 我和他都是团员。

15.In July 1768 the Endeavour set out for the Pacific. 1768年七月“奋力号”启程开赴太平洋。

16.In July they set sail again and headed south and west in search of a new land.
七月，他们再度启航，向南，然后向西行驶，寻找新的陆地。

1)s et sail 是启航之意。

They set sail for the North Pole. 他们启航去北极。

在英语中，有一些动词如：take , have , make , give等常和一个动词词性
的名词连用，组成一短语，表示做某个动作。

例如：take a walk 散步have a break 休息give a shout 喊
give a whistle 吹口哨make an answer 回答
make a promise 允许，答应
2)h ead 为不及物动词后接表方向的副词，如south, north, west ,eastward 等。

3)i n search of努力寻找的意思。

介词短语常作状语或表语。

17. Only Cook’s quick thinking saved the expedition.

例如：Tom’s coming late made his teacher unhappy.
汤姆的迟到使他的老师不快。

Do you think my going there will be of any help?
你看我去那会有什么帮助吗？
[典型错误例析]

四、语法精析
动词-ing式作主语、宾语和表语
本单元复习动词-ing式作主语、宾语和表语。

这里动词-ing式都具备名词的作用。

1．动词-ing式作主语，说明事情，而不强调动作的发生。

例如：
Getting up early is a good habit.
早起是个好习惯。

（指“早起”之事）
而To get up early is good for your health.
早起对你的健康有益。

（指“早起”的动作）
注意：①动词-ing式做主语有时可用it作形式主语。

例如：
It is no use talking with him. 跟他谈没用。

②There is no doing.(做某事不可能)句型中动词-ing式也是做主语。

There is no parking in the front of stores. 商店门前不准停车。

2．动词-ing式作表语，有两个特征：
①说明主语是什么。

例如：
My job is teaching.我的工作是教书。

这种情况下，主语与表语位置可以互换，即也可写成：
Teaching is my job.教书是我的工作。

①说明主语的性质、特征。

例如：
My job is interesting.我的工作是有意思的。

这种情况下主语与表语位置不可以互换。

1．动词-ing式作宾语，有4种情况：
①直接做动词宾语
He enjoys listening to light music.他喜欢听轻音乐。

只能接-ing式作宾语，而不能接不定式作宾语的动词有：
mind, enjoy, finish, stop, appreciate, imagine, excuse, practise, suggest, risk（冒险做
某事），avoid, miss（错过），escape等。

①做动词短语宾语
He has given up smoking. 他已戒烟。

②做介词宾语
He left without saying a word. 他一句话也没说便走了。

做形容词宾语
The novel is worth reading twice. 这部小说值得看两遍。

五、词语储存
1．raise与rise的区别：
raise是及物动词，可解释为“使……升高”，“提起”；
rise是不及物动词，意为“上升”，“升高”。

例如：
The owner raised the food prices.
卖主提高了食品的价格。

The food prices rose last week.
上周食品的价格上涨了。

2．prepare for与be prepared for的区别：
prepare for指对将要作的事“做准备”，表示动作。

而be prepared for是
系表结构，指“为……做好了准备”。

表示状态。

试比较下面两个句子：
We are preparing for the final exam.
我们正在为期末考试做准备。

We are always prepared for anything to happen.
我们随时准备对付可能发生的事。

六、能力点拨
写作(二)：景物描写（旅游杂记）
本单元的写作训练是学习写某地的景物，或旅游杂记。

描写景物一般要遵循的原则是从总体到局部；从外到内。

这类文章一般包括三段：开头是总的介绍，引出主题；中间是正文
部分，具体介绍此地、此景的特色，如著名的建筑、风景名胜等；第三部分是作者的建议、感想或总结性的话语。

下面是一篇范文，请仔细阅读。

The Three Gorges of the Yangtze River is famous throughout the world. There are a number of beautiful places of interest along it, such as the Xiling Gorge (西陵峡), Wu Gorge (巫峡), Qutang Gorge (瞿塘峡), Zhaojun Village, Qu Yuan Temple and Baidi Town.
The Gezhouba Dam is at the entrance to the gorges. A big power station has been built here. Since the reform and open-dor policies began to be carried out, great changes have taken place and the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River have taken on a new look.
The Three Gorges will benefit the people and make greater contribution to China.

[听力指导]听力的要求
听力的重要性：
1．听力在英语学习中的重要作用:
听是理解和吸收口头信息的重要手段，是学习和运用英语的重要能力之一。

学习语言的根本目的是为了交流，如果没有一定的听力，连对方说什么都听不懂，又何谈与对方交流沟通呢？听说不分家，听力与口语是相辅相成的，俗语说，“十聋九哑”，没有敏锐的听力，就无法准确模仿一种语言的发音。

提高学生的听力，可增强学生的语感，对发展学生其它各项语言能力都起到促进作用.
李岚清总理曾指出中国对外开放，我们的弱点是对外交际的语言问题。

新大纲明确规定了高中三年英语听力教学应达到的目标
1)﹒能听懂《词汇表》中的词汇和短语。

2)﹒能听懂教师用学生已学的英语解释新的语言现象和教学内容。

3)﹒能听懂对方基本在学生所学过的语言范围内，用略慢的语速谈有关日常生活的内容，偶尔需要对方重复
4)能听懂没有生词，题材熟悉，难度略低于所学材料的语段。

语速为每分钟120个词，理解正确率达70%
2.听力在高考中的重要地位
虽然听力很重要,大纲规定的听力要求也不算苛刻,但听力一直是高中英语教学的薄弱环节.高考加试听力是教育改革的重大举措．它必然将有效地推进英语教学,提高英语教学水平.广东省从1999 年开始试行3+x 方案,2000年山西.吉林.江苏.浙江四省进行了这项高考科目设置改革.2001年在全国推行3+x方案.3指语文数学,外语为每个考生的必考科目.考题突出能力与运用,为此高考增加第一大题听力测试,总分30分,占卷面总分的五分之一.听力考得好坏与否关系到高考的成败.由于它是英语考试中首先出现的部分,因而对考生在整个考试期间的心理状态影响极大:考得顺利,会增强信心;否则,会因为心理紧张而造成失误.

Why don’t birds get lost in their long migratory(迁居的) flights? Scientists have puzzled over this question for many years. Now they’re beginning to fill in the blanks.
Not long ago, experiments showed that birds rely on the sun to guide them during daylight hours. But what about birds that fly mainly by night? Tests with man-made stars have proved conclusively that certain night-flying birds are able to follow the stars in their long-distance flights.
One such bird, a warbler(鸣禽), had spent its lifetime in a cage and had never flown under a natural sky. Yet it showed an inborn ability to use the stars for guidance. The bird’s cage was placed under a man-made star----filled sky at migration time. The bird tried to fly in the same direction as that taken by his outdoor cousins. Any change in the direction of the man-made stars caused a change in the direction of his flight.
Scientists think that warblers, when flying in daylight, use the sun for guidance. But the stars are apparently their principal means of navigation(导航). What do they do when the stars are hidden by clouds? Apparently, they find their way by such landmarks as mountain ranges, coastlines, and river courses. But when it’s too dark to see these, the warblers circle help lessly, unable to get their direction.
1. The reasons why do birds don’t get lost in migratory flights ___________ .
A．have been known to scientists for many years
B．have only recently been discovered
C．are known by everyone
D．will probably remain a mystery
2. The birds mentioned in this article _______________ .
A．was captured and put in a cage by scientists
B．had never flown under a natural sky
C．was tamed and tested by scientists
D．was a bird that can speak
3. Warbler migrate _________.
A．from North America to South America
B．only once during their lifetime
C．using what is apparently an inborn navigational ability
D．when they are freed from their cages
4. When the stars are hidden by clouds, warblers find their way by __________.
A. a man-made star
B. their inborn ability
C. some landmarks
D. A and B

George Markov was a famous writer in Bulgaria. In 1969, he suspected（猜想）that he was going to be put into prison or killed because one of his plays was regarded as being an attack on the leaders of Bulgaria. Markov managed to reach England and got a job with the BBC, preparing broadcast in Bulgarian.
Some of the BBC broadcasts were critical (批评) of life in Bulgaria. Perhaps as a result of this, Markov received an anonymous(匿名) telephone call warning him that he would be killed. In September, 1978, Markov stopped his car in London and started to walk to his office. When he was passing a bus line, a man in the line appeared to drop his umbrella. Markov felt a sudden pain in the leg.
When Markov reached his office, he spoke about the incident to a friend. A few hours later, he began to feel ill. He was sent to hospital and died four days later. The doctor examined his body,
and they were puzzled about the cause of his death. They found a tiny metal pellet(弹丸) in Markov’s leg. There were two tiny holes in the pellet, and scientists believed that there had been an unknown poison in them.
A few weeks before Markov was “shot” with poisonous pellet fired from an umbrella, another Bulgarian had the same experience in France. Towards the end of August 1978, Kostov felt a sharp pain in the back when the news of Markov’s death became known, Kostov was asked to return to hospital for examination. Doctors found a tiny pellet in his back, but it had stuck in an area which the poison had not been able to spread.
The police in both countries are still searching for the reasons why both men were attacked. They hope to catch their attackers.
1. In the passage we were not told that Markov _______.
A. once lived in Bulgaria
B. worked for BBC
C. was attacked by somebody
D. visited France
2. The cause of Markov’s death was that__________.
A. he was working for the BBC
