二 重點(diǎn)難點(diǎn)解析
1. No one knew what was happening．沒有人知道發(fā)生了什么事。
這是一句由連接代詞what引導(dǎo)的賓語從句，連接詞要位于從句的前面，起連接主句和從句的作用，從句用陳述句語序。例：I wonder whose house that is．我想知道那是誰的房子。
2. What's going on？發(fā)生什么事了？ 與它意思相同的表達(dá)還有：What's up? /What's happening?
3. Was my father afraid of that man? 我爸爸害怕那個(gè)人嗎？
1）be afraid of sb/sth害怕……。例：She is afraid of dogs．她怕狗。
2） be afraid that恐怕……。例：I'm afraid that I've broken your pen．恐怕我弄壞了你的鋼筆。
4. He quickly dialled 110．他迅速撥打110。
dial＋具體電話號(hào)碼= phone sb 給……打電話。
5. Three young men started talking to us．三個(gè)年輕人開始跟我們交談。
*start doing sth開始做……。例：It's autumn and leaves start falling．秋天到了，樹葉開始落下。
☆辮析：tell，speak，talk，say
tell告訴，常見的短語有：tell a lie說謊，tell sb to do sth告訴……做……；tell sb about sth告訴……關(guān)于……的情況，tell a story講故事。speak說，后面接語言，如：speak German說德語。talk to/with sb (about sth）與某人談?wù)摚ㄓ嘘P(guān)……事）。say說，后面接內(nèi)容。例：
She said he could speak very good English．她說他英語說得很好。
Tell him not to talk about the thing any longer。告訴他不要再談?wù)撨@件事了。
6. Please meet the ferry．請(qǐng)去迎接渡船。
meet sb 意為“迎接某人”。例： Will you meet her at the station？你到車站去接她嗎？
7. As we got off, we saw them．我們下船時(shí)看見他們了。
這是由as引導(dǎo)的時(shí)間狀語從句。表示“當(dāng)……時(shí)”，主句和從句的動(dòng)作同時(shí)發(fā)生。例：I thought of it just as you opened your mouth．就在你要說的時(shí)候，我也想到了。
8.Six policemen stood around the man，who was in handcuffs．6名警察站在一名戴手銬的男子周圍。
☆這是一句由who引導(dǎo)的非限制性定語從句。定語從句可分為限制性定語從句和非限制性定語從句。限制性定語從句是整個(gè)句子中不可缺少的一部分，去掉后會(huì)影響整個(gè)句子的意思，所以不用逗號(hào)和主句隔開；非限制性定語從句是整個(gè)句子中相對(duì)較為獨(dú)立的一部分，缺少了也不會(huì)影響整個(gè)句子的意思，因此總是用逗號(hào)和主句隔開。例：
This is the best film that I have ever seen．這是我看過的最好的一部電影。
Last week I saw a very good film，which was about the-UFO．上周我看了一部非常好的電影，是關(guān)于飛碟的。
* be in handcuffs帶手銬。例：The man who is in handcuffs is my next-door neighbour.
帶手銬的男子是我的隔壁鄰居。

Thursday，28 June

The crowd stared at the three people ．No one knew what was happening．
My father moved through the crowd and said quietly to one of the women，"What's going on?"
"They stole my friend's purse five minutes ago, "said the woman．"We were down in the bookshop，buying postcards ．Three young men started talking to us ．At first they were very friendly. Then suddenly my friend noticed that her purse was not in her handbag. Two of the men ran away ．We followed this man here．"
Then the bell rang, the gates opened, and everyone started going down onto the ferry．The man hurried aboard，and the two tourists went after him．
"Wait, "said my father. "I don't want to go on that ferry．"
This was strange ．Was my father afraid of that man? I wanted to go and watch the action．
But he hurried to an ice-cream shop，“Can I use your phone?" he asked the shop assistant ．He quickly dialled 110．
"I want to report a robbery．The man is on the ferry now. It just left a few minutes ago．"He looked down through the railings．"It's the‘No.3’Ferry，"he said，"Please meet the ferry．"He gave some more details，and then put the phone down．

處理麻煩事
6月28日，星期四
今天我和爸爸正在等渡船。人們通常都是安靜地等，但是今天下午我們聽到很大的爭(zhēng)吵聲。兩個(gè)女游客正對(duì)一個(gè)男人大聲嚷嚷。他也對(duì)她們喊。他翻出包，讓大家看那是空的。
人們都盯著這三個(gè)人。沒有人知道發(fā)生了什么事。
我爸爸從人群中走出來，輕輕地對(duì)其中一個(gè)女人說：“發(fā)生什么事了？”
“五分鐘前他們偷了我朋友的錢包，”那個(gè)女人說。“我們正在逛書店，買明信片。三個(gè)年輕人開始跟我們交談。起初他們都非常友好。突然我的朋友注意到她的錢包不在手提包里了。其中的兩個(gè)人逃跑了。我們跟著這個(gè)人一直到這兒。”
就在這時(shí)鈴響了，門開了，人們開始上船。那位男子匆匆上船，兩位游客緊隨其后。
“等一下，”我爸爸說。“我不想上那艘船。”
這真是奇怪。我爸爸怕那個(gè)男人嗎？我想去看個(gè)究竟。
但是他匆忙趕到一家冰淇淋店。“我能用一下電話嗎？”他問店員。他迅速撥打110.
“我想報(bào)告一宗搶劫案。那個(gè)人正在船上。剛離開幾分鐘。”他穿過欄桿往下看。“是三號(hào)渡船，”他說。“請(qǐng)去接船。”他又說了一些細(xì)節(jié)，然后掛了電話。
我們坐了下一艘船。我們下船時(shí)看見他們了。6名警察站在一名戴手銬的男子周圍，那兩個(gè)女人正在和警察交談。
“爸爸，干得好，”我們一邊走我一邊說。“好主意！”

動(dòng)詞過去式的構(gòu)成：由動(dòng)詞原形＋ed/d的這類叫規(guī)則動(dòng)詞；另一類則為不規(guī)則動(dòng)詞，需記住它們的變化形式。濁輔音或元音因素＋ed發(fā)／d/；清輔音＋ed發(fā)／t/ ；以一ted/一ded結(jié)尾的，ed發(fā)/id/。
3．其否定句或疑問句需用助動(dòng)詞did/didn't。如：One day I met a friend of mine in the street．
I didn't work more than ten hours a day．
He didn't come to school today．
Did you pass the exam?
五 寫作技巧----日記
日記常用來記述自己一天生活中所發(fā)生的事情，故多用過去時(shí)或現(xiàn)在完成時(shí)，有時(shí)若表達(dá)自己對(duì)未來的打算也用將來時(shí)。英文日記和中文的寫法大體相同，都是在寫正文之前依次寫明日期及天氣情況。
1．日期的寫法
September 10，2005，Sunday或Sunday September 10，2005
2．天氣的寫法
Fine/Clear/Sunny（晴），Rainy（有雨），Cloudy（多云），Windy（有風(fēng)），Snowy（有雪）等。
3．日記的格式
日期 天氣
正文

二 重點(diǎn)難點(diǎn)解析
1 ．In ancient times，people wrote numbers in many different ways，as these pictures of the number 6 show．在古代，人們用各種各樣的方法記錄數(shù)字，就像這些圖片所表示的數(shù)字6一樣。
*in ancient times意為“在古代”。例：Pepole used wood to cook in ancient times．古代人們用木柴做飯。
☆辮析：as，like兩者都有“像”的意思，但as是連詞后跟從句；like是介詞后跟名詞或代詞，例：
Do as I do，照我的樣子做。Do it like this．照這樣做。
2．This was a very important invention because it made it easier to write big numbers and calculate．
這是一項(xiàng)十分重要的發(fā)明，因?yàn)樗箷鴮懘髷?shù)目和計(jì)算更容易。
☆because后為原因狀語從句。
☆make it easier to do…使做……更容易。例：Today telephones make it easier to talk with each other.
當(dāng)今電話使人們交談起來更容易。
3 ．Abacuses are so fast and accurate that people still use them today．
算盤計(jì)算很快并且很準(zhǔn)確，因此人們至今仍在使用。
☆so…that引導(dǎo)的是結(jié)果狀語從句，表示結(jié)果，意為“如此……以致”。結(jié)果狀語從句須里于主句之后。例：
The sound was so weak that nobody could hear it．聲音如此小，沒人能聽見。
4 ．Use your own living computer to solve the problem above．用你自己的活電腦來解決上面的問題。
*a living computer一臺(tái)活電腦。例：The brain is called a living computer．大腦被稱作活電腦。
☆辮析：question，problem兩者均可表示“問題”o question多指對(duì)不懂的事情提出的問題，往往期待他人給予解答，常與answer連用；problem指客觀存在的并有待解決的難題，常與solve連用。例：
She couldn't answer the question．她未能回答這個(gè)問題。
We have some problems to solve．我們有些問題需要解決。
5 ．If it is not powerftil enough，you will find the answer on page 59.如果它不夠強(qiáng)大，你可以在59頁找到答案。
☆if后為條件狀語從句，表示“如果……”，主句用一般將來時(shí)，從句要用一般現(xiàn)在時(shí)。例：
Will you come if he comes here? 如果他來，你會(huì)來嗎？
6. "0”的不同表達(dá)
zero/naught（nought) /nothing/nil
三 重點(diǎn)語段翻譯
Numbers：Everyone's language
How many languages do you know? Everyone knows at least two-his or her own language and the international language of numbers．
Ancient numbers．
In ancient times，people wrote numbers in many different ways，as these pictures of the number
6 show．However, they nearly all counted in the same way-一一in tens．
Zero
The system of numbers that nearly everyone uses today consists of the numbers from 1 to 9 and 0（zero)．With these ten numbers，we can write any number from the biggest to the smallest ．The Indians first invented and developed the 1 to 9 system of numbers ．They then invented the zero．This was a very important invention because it made it easier to write big numbers and to calculate．
Calculating machines
One of the first calculating machines was an abacus ．Abacuses are so fast and accurate that people still use them today ．On the abacus in the picture，the beads on the wires represent ones，tens，hundreds and thousands，starting from the bottom wire．
The picture on the right shows a modern electronic calculator. It can add，subtract，multiply and
divide ．It can also calculate percentages and square roots．
This picture shows a computer. Computers are very powerful calculating machines ．In a flash，a computer can do a calculation that you could not do in your whole lifetime．
Brain against computer
Some people call the brain a living computer ．Is a human brain a more powerful calculator than a
computer? The following story may give an answer：
Shakuntala Devi is a lady from India with an amazing brain ．She can calculate like lightning ．In
America，Shakuntala and a very powerful computer were given this problem to solve．
☆Find the number that, when it is multiplied 23 times by itself,
*gives.this.answer:9167486769200391580986609275853801624831066801443086 2240712651642793465704086709659327920576748080679002 2783016354924852380335745316935111903596577547340075 681688305620821016129132845546805780158806771
Shakuntala's brain took fifty seconds to find the answer. The computer took a minute．However, before the computer could begin calculating，someone had to program it with instructions，and that took many hours ．No one had to program Shakuntala！
Use your own living computer to solve the problem above ．If it is not powerful enough，you will find the answer on page 59．
數(shù)字：每個(gè)人的語言
你會(huì)多少種語言？每個(gè)人至少會(huì)兩種-他或她的母語和國際數(shù)字語言。
古代數(shù)字
在古代，人們用各種各樣的方法記錄數(shù)字，就像這些圖片所表示的數(shù)字6一樣。但是，他們幾乎都用一種方法數(shù)數(shù)-十進(jìn)制。
零
當(dāng)今幾乎每個(gè)人都在使用的數(shù)字系統(tǒng)由數(shù)字1到9和零組成。用這十個(gè)數(shù)字，我們可以寫出從最大到最小的任何一個(gè)數(shù)字。印度人最早發(fā)明并發(fā)展了1到9這個(gè)數(shù)字系統(tǒng)。他們接著又發(fā)明了零。這是一項(xiàng)重要的發(fā)明，因?yàn)樗箷鴮懘髷?shù)目和計(jì)算更容易。
計(jì)算器
算盤是最早的計(jì)算器之一。算盤計(jì)茸很快并且很準(zhǔn)確，因此人們至今仍在使用。圖片中的算盤，從下面開始，桿上的珠子依次代表個(gè)位、十位、百位、千位。
右邊的圖片展示的是一個(gè)現(xiàn)代的電子計(jì)算器。它能做加、減、乘、除各種運(yùn)算。它還能算百分?jǐn)?shù)和平方根。
這幅圖片展示的是計(jì)算機(jī)。計(jì)算機(jī)是非常強(qiáng)大的計(jì)算機(jī)器。在一瞬間，計(jì)算機(jī)所做的計(jì)算是你一生都做不完的。
大腦對(duì)電腦
有些人把大腦叫做活電腦。人的大腦是比電腦還更強(qiáng)大的計(jì)算器嗎？下面的故事將給出一個(gè)答案。
Shakuntala Devi是一個(gè)長(zhǎng)著令人吃驚的大腦的印度妥人。側(cè)的計(jì)算很快。在美國，給Shakuntala和一臺(tái)很強(qiáng)大的電腦出了一道題。
找出某數(shù)的23次平方根，結(jié)果為：
．9167486769200391580986609275853801624831066801443086
．2240712651642793465704086709659327920576748080679002
．2783016354924852380335745316935111903596577547340075
．681688305620821016129132845546805780158806771
Shakuntala的大腦花了50秒算出了答案。電腦花了1分鐘。然而，電腦在能夠計(jì)算之前，得有人用指令給它編程序，那要花費(fèi)幾個(gè)小時(shí)。Shakuntala不需要人給她編程序。
用你自己的活電腦解決上面的問題。如果它不夠強(qiáng)大，你可以在59頁找到答案。

三重點(diǎn)語段翻譯
Look it up！
May's father bought her an encyclopaedia．Here are three of the articles she found in it．
DIIN0SAURS
Dinosaurs lived on earth more than sixty million years ago．This was a long time before people existed. There were millions of dinosaurs ．They lived everywhere．Some were as small as chickens ．Others were as big as ten elephants．Some dinosaurs had wings and could fly．
Many dinosaurs were harmless ．They were as gentle as sheep and ate plants ．Others were harmful ．They were fiercer than tigers and ate meat, unlike most other dinosaurs．
Dinosaurs all died suddenly ．Nobody knows why ．We know about the lives of dinosaurs from the skeletons，eggs and footprints they left behind．（See Earth History)
DIOGENES
Diogenes was a famous thinker ．He lived in Greece about two thousand years ago．He taught that the way to be happy was to own as few things as possible ．All he owned was a big jar that he lived in，a coat，a purse and a cup ．He was very happy．One day，he saw a small boy kneeling by a fountain ．The boy was drinking water from his hands．So Diogenes threw away his cup and became even happier.
DISNEY，WALT
Disneyland is a famous amusement park in the United States of America ．There are also Disneyland Parks in Japan and France ．Disneyland Park was created by Walt Disney（1901－1966），who is famous for his cartoon characters：Mickey Mouse，Donald Duck，Goofy，Snow White and many others．
Walt was born in the USA．After leaving school and studying art at night, he sold newspapers and delivered mail．Finally he got a job that he really liked-drawing cartoons for films．
Walt's most famous cartoon character, Mickey Mouse，was a real mouse．It sometimes sat on Walt's desk while he was working．Walt drew山e mouse and put it in a cartoon．Soon Mickey became a star and Walt became rich and famous．（See Cartoons）

梅的爸爸給她買了一部百科全書。這是她在書中看到的三篇文章。
恐龍
恐龍?jiān)诹Ф嗳f年前生活在地球上。這是有人類存在前的很長(zhǎng)一段時(shí)間。當(dāng)時(shí)有上百萬只恐龍。它們無處不在。一些恐龍像雞一樣小。其它的像十頭大象一樣大。一些恐龍有翅膀，可以飛。
許多恐龍都是無害的。它們像羊一樣溫順，吃草。有些恐龍是有害的。它們比老虎更殘暴，吃肉，不像其它大部分恐龍那樣。
恐龍突然滅亡。沒有人知道原因。我們是從恐龍留下的骸骨、恐龍蛋和腳印中知道關(guān)于它們的存在的。（見地球的歷史）
Diogenes是位著名的思想家。他大約于兩千年前居住在希臘。他認(rèn)為快樂的方法就是擁有盡可能少的東西。他所擁有的全部就是一個(gè)他所棲身的大罐子，一件衣服，一個(gè)錢包和一個(gè)杯子。他非常快樂。一天，他看見一個(gè)小男孩正跪在噴泉旁。他正用手喝水。因此，Diogenes扔掉了他的杯子，變得甚至更快樂了。
迪斯尼，沃爾特
迪斯尼樂園是美國著名的游樂園。在日本和法國也有迪斯尼主題公園。迪斯尼樂園是由沃爾特迪斯尼創(chuàng)建的，他以他的卡通人物而聞名，像米老鼠、唐老鴨、白雪公主和許多其他角色。
沃爾特生于美國。畢業(yè)后，他又在晚上學(xué)畫畫，他開始賣報(bào)紙，送郵件。最后他得到了一份自己真正喜愛的工作-為電影畫卡通漫畫。
沃爾特最著名的卡通人物，米老鼠，是一只真實(shí)的老鼠。它有時(shí)在沃爾特正在工作的時(shí)候坐到他的桌子上。沃爾特把它畫了下來，放到一部卡通里。不久米老鼠就成了明星，沃爾特變得富有而著名。（見卡通）
四語法講解
I．指示代詞（this, that, these, those)
指示代詞有單、復(fù)數(shù)之分。特指名詞的單數(shù)用this（近）/that（遠(yuǎn)）；特指名詞的復(fù)數(shù)用these（近）/those（遠(yuǎn)）。Is this your book? Yes，it is．Is that your bike? No，it isn't。
Are these your pencils? Yes，they are．Are those your parents? No，they aren't．
2．可數(shù)名詞和不可數(shù)名詞

如：man-men；child-children; woman-women: foot-feet; goose-geese; tooth-teeth；
單復(fù)數(shù)相同的可數(shù)名詞：Chinese; Japanese; sheep; deer; fish
以o結(jié)尾的名詞，一般詞尾＋es : potato-potatoes; 在某些詞后＋s; piano-pianos; radio-radios.
3．專有名詞
專有名詞是某個(gè)（些）人、地方或機(jī)構(gòu)專有的名稱，如：Tim, China, the Great Wall，Beijing University等。
4. 語音知識(shí)
音節(jié)的構(gòu)成：有一個(gè)元音因素就有一個(gè)音節(jié)。如是輔音因素則通常為：一歸前，二分手。即一個(gè)輔音因素歸前一個(gè)音節(jié)；如兩個(gè)輔音因素，一個(gè)歸前，一個(gè)歸后。如：char.ac.ter sec.tion

三 重點(diǎn)語段翻譯
Nobody wins（Part I ）
Captain King, Master Spaceman，has been all over space ．He often tells his friends stories of his adventures ．This is one of them．
Peters, our navigator, was lost again ．We were running out of food，so towards evening, we landed on an unexplored planet．Lam，our pilot, brought us down gently in a valley close to a great cliff of smooth，black rock．In the cliff there were doors-of two storeys high！
All twelve of us left the ship and approached the doors carefully ．One was a little open．
We went through it into a huge cave．The furniture inside was earth一type，but huge！You could play tennis on the bed and have a bath in the bowl on the bedside table．
‘Let's get out of here，’Peters said．
‘This is the home of a monster.’
‘It's clearly partly human，so it may be a friendly monster,’I said．‘We'll wait．’
‘But…，’Peters began．
‘Don't argue，’I said．‘We are going to wait．’
The ground began to shake．The door opened and some animals hopped in ．They looked like kangaroos，giant kangaroos ．Following them was a huge monster. It looked almost human except that it had a single，huge，red, glowing eye.
The monster turned to close the door and shouted，‘Good night，friends．’
The friends outside shouted，‘Good night, Gork．’
Then Gork shut the door, turned round and saw us ．He gave a roar that turned our blood to ice．‘Aliens！Aliens in my cave．How did you get in here?’
I thought fast, and said quietly，‘Good evening，Mr Gork。My name is Nobody and these people here are my…’
Gork roared again，‘I know who you are ．You're aliens and we kill all aliens in this valley ．That's our custom．Tomorrow，at dawn，you are going to die！All of you．’
Before we could move，Gork pressed a button on the wall beside him ．Steel bars sprang
from the ground around us and closed over our heads
We were caught like rats in a trap．Gork pressed another button，and a powerful magnet above the cage pulled our guns from our hands．
‘Well，Captain' Lam said，‘you were wrong about the monster being friendly，weren't
you? And why did you say your name was "Nobody"？’
‘I have a plan and "Nobody" is part of it，’I replied．‘You'll see．’
I turned to Gork and said，‘Mr Gork，it is true that we are aliens，but why can't we be
friends? Believe me，sir. We come in peace．’
Gork said，‘You come in peace，but tomorrow you'll be in pieces．’He roared with laughter,‘But listen，Nobody ．I'll do you a favour. Tomorrow, you'll be the last one to die．’
Peters turned towards me ．When he spoke，his voice shook．‘I hope your plan's a good
one，sir. If it isn't，we're all going to die。’
‘No，we're not，’I said．‘We're all going to live， Peters！Trust me．’
沒有人贏（第一部分）
金機(jī)長(zhǎng)，優(yōu)秀的宇航員，已經(jīng)游遍了太空。他經(jīng)常給朋友們講他探險(xiǎn)的故事。這就是其中的一個(gè)。
彼得斯，我們的領(lǐng)航員又迷路了。我們吃光了食物，所以接近夜晚的時(shí)候，我們?cè)谝粋�(gè)從沒有人去過的行星上登陸了。蘭姆，我們的飛行員，緩緩地把我們帶到一個(gè)山谷里，那挨著一個(gè)平滑的黑巖石的大懸崖。在懸崖上有門-足有兩層樓那么高！
我們一行12個(gè)人離開了飛船，小心地走近大門。其中一扇稍微開了點(diǎn)。我們通過門走進(jìn)了一個(gè)大洞穴。里面的家具都是地球上的式樣，但是非常大！你可以在床上打網(wǎng)球，在床邊桌上的碗里洗澡。
“我們離開這兒吧，”彼得斯說。“這是一個(gè)怪物的家。”
“很明顯它有部分是人類，所以它可能是個(gè)友好的怪物，”我說。“我們等等吧。”
“但是……，”彼得斯又開始了。
“別爭(zhēng)了，”我說。“我們打算等。”
地面開始震動(dòng)。門開了，一些動(dòng)物跳了進(jìn)來。它們看起像袋鼠，巨型袋鼠。隨后是個(gè)大怪物。“看起來幾乎跟人一樣，只是它長(zhǎng)著一只巨大的紅色發(fā)光的眼睛。
怪物轉(zhuǎn)身去關(guān)門，大喊道：“朋友們，晚安。”
外面的朋友喊道：“戈克，晚安。”
然后戈克關(guān)上門，轉(zhuǎn)過身來看到了我們。他的一聲大吼使我們毛骨諫然。“外星人！我的洞穴里有外星人。你們是怎么進(jìn)來的？”
我靈機(jī)一動(dòng)，悄悄地說道：“晚上好，戈克先生。我是沒有人，這兒的這些人是我的……”
戈克又大吼一聲，“我知道你是誰，你們是外星人，我們殺死這個(gè)山谷里所有的外星人。那是我們的習(xí)慣。明天，天一亮，你們就得死！所有人。”
在我們可以行動(dòng)之前，戈克按了他埃著的墻上的那一個(gè)按鈕。鋼條在我們四周從地上彈出來，貼著我們的頭頂。我們像耗子被夾在鼠夾中那樣被抓住。戈克按了另一個(gè)妞，籠子上方一個(gè)強(qiáng)大的吸鐵石把我們手里的槍給吸走了。
“機(jī)長(zhǎng)，”蘭姆說。“你以為怪物是友好的是錯(cuò)誤的，不是嗎？況且你為什么說你叫‘沒有人’啊？”
“我有一個(gè)計(jì)劃，‘沒有人’正是其中的一部分，”我答道。“你就等著瞧吧。”
我轉(zhuǎn)向戈克，說道：“戈克先生，沒錯(cuò)，我們是外星人，但是我們?yōu)槭裁床荒艹蔀榕笥涯兀肯嘈盼遥壬Ｎ覀兪菓阎埔舛鴣淼摹！?/p>
戈克說：“你們懷著善意而來，但是明天你們將變成碎片。”他咆哮還帶著怪笑。“但是聽著，沒有人。我將為你效勞。明天，你會(huì)最后一個(gè)死。”
彼得斯轉(zhuǎn)向我。他說話時(shí)，聲音都顫抖了。“我希望你那是個(gè)好主意，先生。如果不是，我們都會(huì)死了。”
“不，我們不會(huì)死，”我說。“我們都會(huì)活，彼得斯！相信我。”
四語法講解
1．一般將來時(shí)
一般將來時(shí)表示將來發(fā)生的動(dòng)作，常與tomorrow, next, soon, in the future等表示將來的時(shí)間狀語連用。
1)動(dòng)詞形式為：will/shall/be going to＋動(dòng)詞原形：I am going to see a film tomorrow．
We will tell you something important．
He won't come to school today．
I shall open the window．
2) be going to在口語中大量使用；表示近期的打算、計(jì)劃、人的意愿以及判斷很可能發(fā)生的事。shall僅限于第一人稱的單復(fù)數(shù)。will not＝won't，shall not＝shan't
2. come/leave/go/arrive等動(dòng)詞經(jīng)常用進(jìn)行時(shí)表示將來。

3. will（將）/may（可能）/might（可能）
will表示對(duì)未來確定無疑；情態(tài)動(dòng)詞may與might表示有可能；might語氣更委婉。
The weather forcast says it will rain heavily tomorrow．天氣預(yù)報(bào)說明天要下大雨。，
It may rain this afternoon.下午可能有雨。
It might rain today, but I'm not sure．今天可能要下雨，但我不能確定。

在具體的日期前用on. on Monday; on the night of May 1st
5．反義疑問句：由兩部分組成，前半部分為陳述部分，后半部分為疑問部分。前半部分為肯定句時(shí)，用否定形式提問；前半部分為否定句時(shí)，用肯定形式提問。時(shí)態(tài)要保持前后一致。
They come to school on foot，don't they? Yes，they do．/No，they don't．
他們步行去上學(xué)，是嗎？是的，他們步行去。／不，他們不是。

二 重點(diǎn)難點(diǎn)解析
1. Then you'll use the torch to kill Gork．然后你就用手電筒殺死戈克。
☆use sth to do sth用……做…... /sth be used to do sth(for doing sth)...…被用來做……／
used to do sth過去常常做…/be(get)used to doing sth習(xí)慣于……
2. We're too weak to open the door．我們太弱小了，開不了門。
☆too. . . to(簡(jiǎn)單句) = not... enough to（簡(jiǎn)單句）= so... that... not（復(fù)合句）太……以至不能……
故例句可改為：We are not strong enough to open the door．或We are so weak that we can't open the door．
3．辨析：beside, besides, except
☆beside意為“在……旁邊”，besides意為“除……之外”,except意為“除了”。例：

By this time yesterday，I had already finished reading half of the story．
到昨天的這個(gè)時(shí)候，我已經(jīng)看了故事的一半了。
5．辨析：at a time, at one time
☆at a time意為“一次，每次”，常用于“數(shù)詞＋at a time”的結(jié)構(gòu)中。例：
Pass me the bricks two at a time．把磚頭遞給我，每次兩塊。‘
at one time一般指“過去某一時(shí)期”或“曾一度”的意思。例：
At one time I used to like her, but not any more．我曾一度很喜歡她，現(xiàn)在可不喜歡了。
6. What happened to Gork？戈克發(fā)生什么事了？
☆happen to意為“發(fā)生于”，其中to是介詞，后接表示人或事物的名詞或代詞，主語通常是anything, something, what等。例：If anything happens to him, let me know．如果他發(fā)生意外，就通知我。
What happened to the machine？機(jī)器出了什么毛病？
三 重點(diǎn)語段翻譯
Nobody wins （Part II）
After his supper of kangaroo soup，Gork lay down on his bed and almost immediately fell asleep．He was snoring ．The noise shook the cave．‘Listen，everyone，’I said．"Here's my plan．”
From my pocket，I took my small，powerful laser torch．Because it was in a plastic case，the magnet could not attract it．‘We'll use this to escape from the cage，’I said．‘First，I'll melt the bars and then…’
Peters interrupted me．‘I know，Captain ．Then you'll use the torch to kill Gork．’
‘Use your brains，’I said．‘If we kill Gork，how will we escape? We're too weak to open
the door ．Here's what we'll do！we'll...’
Moments later, we were all out of the cage ．The crew was hiding among the kangaroos，and I
was standing on the bed，beside Gork's head ．I said loudly，‘Gork，this is Nobody．’Gork woke up ．I aimed the torch at his eye and pressed the button．The laser beam hit the eye. The eye went out．
Gork roared,‘I can't see！My eye！’The noise brought his neighbours running to his door.’
‘What's wrong, Gork?’they shouted from outside．
Gork shouted back，‘It's Nobody ．Nobody attacked me ．Nobody damaged my eye．’
The neighbours laughed and said，‘Nobody attacked him．Gork's having a bad dream. Let's go back to bed．Good night，Gork。’
By this time，I had joined my crew among the kangaroos，Gork said，‘Nobody，I know you're hiding among my kangaroos．I'll get you．You're finished, all of you．’
He opened the cave door a little and called his kangaroos to come out. As they hopped through the narrow opening, one at a time，he felt their backs with his hands to make sure we were not on them．
‘What do we do now?’Peters whispered．‘We can't get out on the kangaroos．We're done for.’
‘Don't panic，Peters，’I said．‘We can't get out on the kangaroos but we can get out in
them ．Here，get inside this one．’Peters climbed into the giant kangaroo's pocket ．A few moments later, he hopped through the door to freedom．
‘That's how＊all got free，’said Captain King，‘a(chǎn)nd back to our ship and，eventually，back to the safety of the earth．’
‘What happened to Gork?’asked someone．
‘Gork? I don't know．Maybe he's still in his cave-looking for Nobody．’
Everyone laughed except a figure in the captain's garden ．It was moving silently towards the house ．It was a huge figure，and in its face was a single，red，glowing eye．
沒有人贏（第二部分）
吃過了晚餐袋鼠湯后，戈克躺在床上馬上睡著了。他打著呼嚕。奸聲震動(dòng)了洞穴。“大家聽我說，”我說道。“我的計(jì)劃是這樣的。”
從口袋里，我掏出我的小而強(qiáng)大的激光手電筒。因?yàn)樗窃谝粋�(gè)塑料盒里，所以磁鐵沒能把它吸走。“我們將用這個(gè)逃離這個(gè)籠子，”我說道。“首先我會(huì)熔化鋼條，然后……，，
彼得斯打斷我。“我知道了，機(jī)長(zhǎng)。然后你就用這個(gè)手電筒殺死戈克。”
“動(dòng)動(dòng)腦子，”我說。“如果我們殺了戈克，我們?cè)趺刺映鋈ィ课覀兲跣×耍_不了門。我們要這樣做！我們……”
沒用多久，我們都逃出了籠子。機(jī)組成員都藏在袋鼠中間，我站在床上，戈克的頭旁邊。我大聲說，“戈克，我是沒有人，”戈克醒了。我把手電筒對(duì)準(zhǔn)他的眼睛，按下按粗。激光光束刺向眼睛，他便什么也看不見了。
戈克大吼，“我看不見了！我的眼睛！”聲音驚動(dòng)了他的鄰居，都跑到了他的門外。
“戈克，怎么了？”他們從外面喊道。
戈克回應(yīng)道，“是沒有人。沒有人襲擊我。沒有人毀壞了我的眼睛。”
鄰居們笑了，說道，“沒有人襲擊他。戈克做噩夢(mèng)了。我們回去睡覺吧。晚安，戈克。”
到這時(shí)，我已經(jīng)和機(jī)組成員都藏到袋鼠中間去了。戈克說：“沒有人，我知道你們藏在我的袋鼠中間。我會(huì)抓到你們的。你們都將被殺死。”
他把洞穴的門打開了一點(diǎn)，讓他的袋鼠都出去。當(dāng)他們從狹窄的開口跳出去，一次一個(gè)時(shí)，他用手摸他們的后面，以確定我們沒在他們身上。
“現(xiàn)在我們?cè)撛趺崔k？”彼得斯低聲說道，“我們不能在袋鼠身上逃出去。我們完蛋了。”
“別慌，彼得斯，”我說。“我們不能在袋鼠身上出去但我們進(jìn)去再逃出去，這兒，到這只里面去。”彼得斯爬到巨大的袋鼠口袋里面。幾分鐘以后，他通過門跳了出去，自由了。
“那就是我們得以自由的方法，”金機(jī)長(zhǎng)說道。“回到我們的船上，最后安全地返
回地球。”
“戈克發(fā)生什么事了？”有人問。
“戈克？我不知道。或許他仍在他的洞穴里---尋找沒有人。”
大家都笑了，除了機(jī)長(zhǎng)花園里的一個(gè)人影。它悄悄地移向房子。那是個(gè)巨大的人影，在它臉上有一個(gè)紅色的會(huì)發(fā)光的眼睛。
