Ⅲ . 语法学习
用一般过去式表示过去完成时
一般过去时表示过去某时间发生的动作或存在的状态。而过去完成时则表示过去某一时间或动作以前就完成了的动作或已存在的状态。但是,在含有由"before"和"after"引导的从句的主从复合句中,由于 before 和 after 本身的词义已经表明了时间的先后,故可以不用过去完成时,而用一般过去时替代。
After he ( had ) asked for leave , he went home . 请了假他才回家。
He ( had ) asked for leave before he went home . 他回家之前先请假。

【学法指要】
单元重点词汇点拨
1 . force 力量,武力
the forces of nature 大自然的力量 * social forces ( 各种 ) 社会势力 join the forces = join the army
( 2 ) 强迫;迫使 force sb . to do sth . 强迫某人做某事
be forced to do sth . 被迫做某事 force a way in ( out , through ) 进入 ( 出、过 )
I didn't want to go , but they forced me to .
Because it was very cold , we were forced to travel at night .
The thief took the money from the old man by force .
The nurse forced the food into his mouth .
〖点拨〗force 与 make
两都可以作"迫使"解。force 表示以武力或暴力作为迫使手段。make 的用法比较广泛,它的强迫性不如 force 强。两者均可接含不定式的复合宾语,但是 force 的宾补不定式带 to , make 则不带 to,但当 make 用于被动语态时,省略的 to 要加上。 by force 用武力方式。
force + 宾语 + 宾补
The two thieves forced the room open .
2 . works 著作;作品
When he wrote one of his great works , The Civil War in France , he had mastered the language so well that he was able to write the book in English .
the works of Shakespeare 莎士比亚的著作
〖点拨〗works 是由作为可数名词的 work 变为复数形式而得来的。work 作为可数名词仍然可以以单数形式出现,意为"著作;作品"。
a new work by John Lewis 约翰刘易斯的新作
3 . situation 形势;情况
He found it important to study the situation in Russia .
the political situation 政治形势
〖点拨〗in…situation处于…形势;在…的情况下
The village was in bad situation after the storm .

Engels wrote him a letter and praised him for it .
〖点拨〗praise sb . for sth . 为某事而表扬某人
praise…as…称赞…为 / 是…
She ought to be praised for what she has done .
Our guests praised the meal as the best they had had for years .
5 . progress 进步;进展
He made good progress .
I'm sorry to say that we have made very little progress in our work .
前进,有进展 ( to go forward ; get better )
We progress in learning step by step .
Science has greatly progressed . 科学发展突飞猛进。
〖点拨〗make…progress in 在…进步
6 . encourage 鼓励。
They encouraged the children to paint pictures .
My teacher encouraged me to speak English .
He was greatly encouraged by his teacher's praise .
Good health encourages clear thinking . 健康使思维清晰。
〖点拨〗excite , inspire,激励,激发。discourage , dispirit,使沮丧,使气馁
en courage sb to do 鼓励 某人干……。discourage sb from ing 使某人干……气馁。
另外注 encouraging可以作形容词表示"鼓舞人心的"。如:
They were encouraged by those encouraging speeches .
7 . people , the people 和 peoples
people ( 人,人们 ) 是集体名词,表复数,泛指"人们",其前不加冠词。如:
The streets were crowded with people .
There are five people in my family . 我家有五口人。
the people ( 人民 ) ,指一国或全世界的人民,或与统治阶级相对的人民群众。如:
We should serve the people ( heart and soul ) .
All power in the People's Republic of China belongs to the people .
peoples ( 民族 ) 一个民族用 a people , 如:

I had a long talk with her yesterday . 我昨天与她作了一次长谈。
I'd like to have a talk with you .
We had a long talk about going to London .
有关 have 的习语
①"have + 宾语"常用来表示一个短时间的动作。不能将 have 简单地理解为"有"。
它和一些词搭配,表现了英语的习惯用法的一些意思 -- 它可表示 eat , drink , take , to , enjoy 等,其意义视后面跟的名词而定。如:
have breakfast ( lunch , supper ) 吃早 ( 中、晚 ) 饭
have a lesson 上一堂课 / have a song 唱一支歌
have a look 看一看 / have a talk 谈一谈
have a drink 喝一杯 / have a joke 开个玩笑
have a rest 休息一下 / have a walk 散散步
have a ride 骑下马 / have a swim 游泳

The work will be finished before long .
5 . in fact -- really , actually 事实上,实际上,其实

6 . write back -- 写回信
Have you written back to your parents yet ?
He wrote back accepting our offer .
7 . go on to sth . -- 接着去做另一件事
So much for the present participle , now I'll go on to say something about the gerund .
He went on to show us how to do it in a different way .
After explaining the text , he went on to show us how to do the experiment .
辨析:go on to do sth . 指某事已经做完接着去开始做与原来不相同的另一件事。
go on doing sth . 指"某事尚未做完,暂停后,继续做原来在做的事。"
它还有"一直做某事"的意思。如:
She nodded to me and went on reading the paper .
Dr Bethune went on working throughout the night .
go on with sth . 也是指继续做某一件事,但 with 扣接名词。如:
We went on with the work .
8 . keep on doing sth . -- 继续做某事,反复做某事
Don't give up , keep on trying .
People kept on coming to the hospital to see him .
You keep on making the same mistake .
I kept on calling you the whole afternoon .
辨析:①keep on doing sth . 与 go on doing sth . 有时两者可以互相换用。但若表示"强调动作、行为的反复多次或表示决?quot;,常用 keep on doing sth .
②keep on doing sth . 与 keep doing sth . 有时可以换用,注意后面应接表示动作的动名词,如:working , writing 等,一般不能接表示静态的动名词,如:standing , lying , sitting , sleeping 等。但若表示保持同一动作的持续状态时,只用 keep doing sth . 而不用 keep on doing sth . 例如
Someone kept knocking at the door .
He caught such a bad cold that he kept coughing all morning .
It kept raining all the night .
9 . be sure about / of sth . -- 确信,有把握,肯定
I'm sure of his success .
Can we be sure of his honesty ?
He is not sure about the number .
辨析:①be sure about / of 后接名词或动名词,如接名词从句,要用 be sure + 由 that 或 when , where , whether , what , how 等引导的名词性从句,表示"某人确信某事。"例如:
I'm sure ( that ) I can run faster than you .
单元难点疑点思路明晰

These are such interesting books that children like to read them .
5 . In fact his English in one of these articles was so good that Engels wrote him a letter and praised him for it . 实际上,在那些文章中,有一篇他写得很好,恩格斯为此曾写信表扬他。
so…that 也连接表示结果的状语从句,意思也?quot;如此……以致";so 是副词,因此只能后接形容词,然后带 a / an , 再接单数名词 ( 不可数名词和复数名词是不能用在 so 后面的 ) ;或者 so 后面只接形容词或副词,不带名词。
It was so hot a day that they wanted to go swimming .

I find it hard to listen to English .
They find it necessary to practise English every day .
7 . In one of his books , he gave advice on how to learn a foreign language . 马克思在他写的一本书里,对如何学习外语提出了一些建议。

in the 1840s 在19世纪40年代 ( 从1840 - 1949年 )
上两个短语中 1870s 和 1840s 可分别写为:1870's 和 1840's。
9 . in one's + 基数词的复数形式 ( 该基数词常为表示"几十"的数词 ) 意思是:在某人几十多岁时。
He is at least in his forties .

10 . give ( sb . ) some advice on / about 给 ( 某人 ) 一些关于…的建议
In one of his books , Marx gave some advice on how to learn a foreign language .

单元语法发散思维
1 . 如果我们正在谈论的是已经过去了的事,要说到比这更早一些时候发生的事,就用过去完成时。如:
He wasn't a stranger - I had met him once before .
I explained that I had forgotten my keys .
2 . 过去完成时常用在间接引语里,放在 said , told , asked 等过去时动词的后面,这个时态指的是在谈话之前已经发生的动作。如:
He said that he had known her well .
I told them that I had finished my task .
3 . 在包含有 when , before , after , until 等连词的主从复合句中,如果主句谓语和从句谓语所表示的动作不是同时发生的,那么先发生的动作通常用过去完成时表示。但若句中有 before , after 等连词,由于他们已表明动作发生的先后顺序,两个动作也都可用一般过去时表示。如:
I ( had ) heard the news before he told me .
After we did ( had done ) our homework , we went swimming .
4 . 过去时与过去完成时时间段的区别。
时间段与过去时连用,表示动作或状态发生在这段时间的某一点或这段时间的始终;时间段与过去完成时连用,则强调动作或状态在这段时间内完成。如:
I learned Japanese during my holidays .
I had learned Japanese during my holidays .
5 . 两个或两个以上的动作虽是接连发生的,但若用 and 或 but 连接时,都只须用一般过去时。如:
He entered the room , took off his coat and sat down at the table .
She lost her necklace , but found it afterward .
6 . 用 hope , think , expect , plan , want 等动词的过去完成时,表示未曾实现的想法、打算、希望或意图等。如:
I had hoped to be able to come and see you . ( 实际上没来 )
They had wanted to help but could not get there in time .

In October 1842,he became the editor(编辑)of the Rheinische Zeitung, and there he began his attack on the old society. Because of his revolutionary activities he was forced to leave his homeland .He moved th France and then to Belgium. In 1848,he returned to Cologne to join the revolution directly.

(二)
The first time I saw Karl Marx was in February 1865.I was twenty-four years old. Never in my life shall I forget the impression (印象)made on my first visit.
Marx could read in all the leading European languages and write in three: German, French and English .He was fond of(喜欢)saying,"A foreign language is a weapon(武器)in the struggle of life."At fifty he took up the study of Russian. Although the language was quite different from the languages he knew ,he made such progress in six months as to be able to enjoy reading Russian poetry and prose(诗歌和散文)works.
Although he went to bed very late, he was always up between eight and nine in the morning .Having drunk a cup of black coffee and read through his newspapers, he would go to his study and work there till two or three next morning ,breaking off only for meals, and when the weather allowed ,for a walk on Hampstead Health. During the day he slept for an hour or two on the sofa. For that he often forgot his meals. Often he had to be called again and again before he came down to the diningroom. But hardly had he eaten the last mouthful when he was back in his study again.
Marx was a loving and gentle father. He used to spend hours playing with his children. They remember to this day sea-fights in a large basin of water with many paper boats, which he made for them and which he would then set on fire to their great joy. On Sundays the girls would not allow him to work; he was theirs for the whole day .When the weather was fine, the whole family would go for a country walk .Marx would shorten the miles for his children by telling them stories without end-Fantastic tales(怪诞的传说)which he made up as he went along, so that the little ones forgot their fatigue(疲劳).
