19、take pride in为感到骄傲/自豪后接让人引以为荣的对象,为名词、动词-ing形式Presentation The young mother was proud that her son succeeded.The young mother took pride in her sons success.=The young mother was proud of her sons success.这位年轻的妈妈为他儿子的成功感到骄傲。Presentation 2.These roses are to thank three groups of people for the three
20、most important things that I have learnt.这些玫瑰用来表达对三组人的谢意，因为我从他们（那里）学到了最重要的三件事。thank sb.for sth/doing sth 为感谢Presentation They thanked their parents for bringing them up.他们感谢父母将自己养大。thanks to 为介词词组，意思是“多亏；由于；因为（含义相当于because of）Thanks to your help,we were successful.由于你的帮助,我们得以成功。Presentation 3.I once
21、 tried to say“xiexie”,but I said “xiaxia”instead.我曾经想说“谢谢”，反而却说成了“夏夏”。instead“反而,反倒”单独使用的时候是副词,常用于句末。Presentation Weve no coffee.Would you like tea instead？我没有咖啡了，喝茶行吗？It will take days by car,so lets fly instead.坐汽车得好几天时间，所以我们还是改乘飞机吧。Presentation 4.Of course some people laughed,and I felt quite sil
22、ly.当然有些人笑了，我也觉得很傻。辨析：silly,foolish与stupid 这3个词都有“蠢”的含义：silly是一个无伤大雅，甚至显得童稚可爱的词汇，如父母可以说孩子silly，但没有一个父母会认为自己的孩子 foolish 或stupid。foolish语气次之，通常形容由于缺乏常识，判断能力有限而做出不恰当的决定。反义词wise。stupid语气最强。一般指某人缺乏正常的理解力，智力上有天生的缺陷，所以这是一个贬义词。Presentation You silly child.你这个傻孩子。（并无贬意）Stay hungry,stay foolish!求知若渴，虚心若愚。乔布斯 I
23、t is foolish of her to spend so much money on her shoes.她花这么多钱在她的鞋子上真是太傻了。Don t ask so many silly questions.She is a bit foolish but not stupid.别再问这样傻的问题了！她是有点犯傻但不是天生愚钝。Presentation 5.I give the white rose to my teachers,who have taught me that there is no success without effort.我将白玫瑰献给我的老师们，他们教我（明白
24、了）不努力就不会成功（的道理)。who have taught me that there is no success without effort 是一个非限定性定语从句，对前面的先行词teachers进行信息的补充，而不是限定性描述。与限定性定语从句不同,非限定性定语从句前面通常加逗号，从句部分即使被省略也不会造成主句意义上的不完整。非限定性定语从句中的关系代词不能省略。Presentation 这个非限定性定语从句中还包含一个宾语从句that there is no success without effort,作 have taught 的宾语。no/notwithout表示“没有.就
25、不.”。例如：We cannot achieve anything without you.没有你我们将一事无成。He is not leaving without you.没有你他不会离开（他对你不离不弃）。Presentation 6.She ran along with me,and she said,“You only really lose if you give up!”她和我一起跑，而且她说：“如果你放弃,（那么）你才真的失败了。这句话要表达的是：只要你坚持下去，跑完全程，那么就算你最后一个到达终点，你也不是一个失败者。Presentation along with是介词短语，意
26、为“连同一 起；伴随着”，与together with 同义。The students planted trees along with their teachers.学生们和老师一起植树了。Presentation give up 意为“放弃”，后接名词、代词或动词-ing形式。后接代词作宾语时，须将代词置于give 和up之间。You should give up smoking.It is bad for your health.你应该戒烟，吸烟有害你的身体健康。There is no help for it but give it up.除放弃之外毫无它法.Presentation 7
27、.I still cant run fast enough,but Ive learnt to try my best,not only with running but with whatever else I do.我仍然跑得不够快，但是我学会了尽我最大的努力,不仅是跑步而且包括所有我做的事情。A.enough 作副词，意为“足够地；十分地”,修饰形容词、副词时需放在其后。It is warm enough in the room.房间里够暖和了。Presentation B.adj.+enough+(for sb.)to do sth.足够能做某事I was old enough to
28、work and earn money.我已经长大了，可以工作赚钱了。Presentation C.enough作形容词,意为“充足的；足够的”,可作表语也可作定语，即enough作为形容词修饰名词时，可放在其前，也可放在其后。There arent enough tents to shelter them all.没有足够的帐篷供他们容身。Therell be time enough to relax when youve finished your work.当你完成工作，仍有足够的时间放松。Presentation not only.but(also).意为不 但而 且”，在应用时要遵循
29、以下三个原则：A.并列原则：not only.but also.并列连词，连接两个并列成分，其中also可省略。B.主谓一致原则：not onlybut also连接两个并列主语时，谓语动词在人称和数上要与but also后的主语保持一致。Presentation C.倒装原则：not onlybut also.连接两个 并列分句时，not only 置于句首，表示强调，其引导的句子要用部分倒装，即将谓语动词的一部分(如情态动词、助动词等)放在主语的前面，而but also 的句子用正常语序。Presentation He not only studies hard but also work
30、swell.他不仅学习努力,而且认真工作。（并列原则）Not only he but also I am interested in pop music.不仅是他而且我也对流行音乐感兴趣。（主谓一致原则）Not only did he make a promise,but also he kept it.他不仅做出了许诺，而且履行了诺言（倒装原则）Presentation 8.“Im sure you will be good at music.I know that you will be better at maths.”“我相信你将会很擅长音乐，我也知道你将会更精通数学。”be good
31、 at 意为“擅长”，后接名词、代词或动词-ing形式，同义短语 do well in意为“在方面做得好”。be better at 为be good at 的比较级。He is good at swimming.=He does well in swimming.他擅长游泳。Presentation You may have to make speeches on the first day at your senior high.Try to plan ahead what you are going to say,but do not write the speech in full j
