6、），而第二句往往是对前句的延伸（extension）或进一步的解释（explanation）。通过略读把握文章大意运用扫读(scanning)迅速浏览从第三句开始的后面部分,搜寻作者对开头两句的支持句(supporting sentences),并同时注意文章中间是否有转折词(transition),因为这些词常常会把文章的思路逆转或加入其它重要的信息。当读到段落的最后一句时,我们又要使用略读,这时必须再次放慢速度(slow down your pace)直到完全消化作者对段落的小结(conclusion),因为该小结有可能与主题句截然相反或引导读者进入下一个段落。通过扫读寻找特定信息或特定词

10、n word,in words辨析 in other words相当于that is,that is to say，意思是“换句话说、也就是说”。如：What he said is doubtful.In other words,we dont believe his words.in a word=in one word=in short，意为“总之，总而言之，一句话”。如：In a word,the situation is getting better and better.in word意为“口头上”，相当于with words,即：in speech only，与in deed相对。
11、如：I dont want you simply to promise me in word that you will be good.in words指用文字、语言表示，它不和行动相对，仅涉及语言文字本身。如：I can hardly describe the beauty of the scene in words.2.adapt(1)(使)适应,(使)适合He couldnt adapt his way of life tothe company.他的生活方式无法适应公司(的要求)。The children found it hard to adapt totheir new scho

15、个玩笑tease sb about sth.戏弄某人课文难句精析1.Then I started to get weaker and weaker,until I could only enjoy football from a bench at the stadium.接下来，我的身体开始变得越来越虚弱，直到只能坐在体育馆的长凳上欣赏足球了。这是一个复合句。句中until意为“直到时(为止)”，作连词，引导时间状语从句。【拓展】until 除了用作连词外，还可以用作介词。当句子为肯定句时，介词until表示谓语动词所表示的动作一直持续到until短语所表示的时间为止。until 用作连词时，
16、则表示主句谓语动词所表示的动作一直持续到从句谓语动词所表示的动作发生或状态出现时为止。一般可译为“一直到时(为止)”。例如:She slept until nine.=She stopped sleeping at nine.但是，当主句为否定句时，用作连词的until则表示主句谓语动词所表示的动作在从句谓语动词所表示的动作发生之后才开始。until用作介词时，也具有类似的意义。这种用法的until可根据情况译为“直到之前(尚未)”或“直到才”。例如：She didnt sleep until nine.=She started sleeping at nine.2.Sometimes,too
17、,I was too weak to go toschool so my education suffered.有时我也因为身体太虚弱不能去上学，所以教育受到影响。在这里“tooto”意为“太 而不能”，可用be not enough to.及sothat来改写。句中suffer意为“变坏、变差、变糟”。例如：Your studies will suffer if you play too much basketball.【拓展】当all too,but too,only too,quite too与动词不定式连用时，就没有否定意义了。例如：Im only too delighted to a
