Lesson 55 Not a gold mine 并非金矿
First listen and then answer the question.听录音, 然后回答以下问题.
What did the team find?
Dreams of finding lost treasure almost came true recently. A new machine called'The Revealer'has been invented and it has been used to detect gold which has been buried in the ground. The machine was used in a cave near the seashore where----it is said----pirates used to hide gold. The pirates would often bury gold in the cave and then fail to collect it. Armed with the new machine, a search party went into the cave hoping to find buried treasure. The leader of the party was examining the soil near the entrance to the cave when the machine showed that there was gold under the ground. Very excited, the party dug a hole two feet deep. They finally found a small gold coin which was almost worthless. The party then searched the whole cave thoroughly but did not find anything except an empty tin trunk. In spite of this, many people are confident that'The Revealer'may reveal something of value fairly soon.
参考译文
最近, 找到失踪宝藏的梦想差一点儿变成现实. 一种叫 "探宝器" 的新机器已经发明出来, 并被人们用来探测地下埋藏的金子. 在靠近海边的一个据说过去海盗常在里面藏金子的岩洞里, 这种机器被派上了用场. 海盗们过去常把金子埋藏在那个洞里, 可后来却没能取走. 一支用这种新机器装备起来的探宝队进入了这个岩洞, 希望找到埋藏着的金子. 当这个队的队长正在检查洞口附近的土壤时, 那台机器显示出它的下面埋有金子. 队员们异常激动, 就地挖了一个两英尺深的坑, 但最后找到的是一枚几乎一钱不值的小金币. 队员们接着又把整个洞彻底搜寻了一遍, 但除了一只空铁皮箱外什么也没找到. 尽管如此, 很多人仍然相信 "探宝器" 很快就会探出值钱的东西来.
【课文讲解】
dreams come true梦想成真
dreams ended梦想破灭了, 梦断了
dream of
dream of doing sth
I dream of flying in the sky.(dream v)
dream of flying in the sky comes true.(dream n)
一句话中只有一个动词, 如果再出现动词, 可以用and并列连接, 也可以变成复合句, 用when, because连接, 还可以使这个动词表示动词意思, 但不做谓语, 即非谓语动词
过去分词做定语, 表示 "被"
ploughed field (plough n.犁 v.耕, 犁, 犁耕, 费力穿过, 艰苦前进, 在考试中淘汰)
n+called
the plane called a "Pilatus Porter"
如果用短语修饰其他词, 则把短语放在被修饰词的后边
be used to do被用来
used to do

in the ground (更习惯于用 "under the ground" )
it is said是插入语 "据说"
used to过去常常
where 修饰 cave ; 一个地点状语从句
where: in which 翻译时译为 "在那儿"
This is the river where I swim.
would一般表示从过去看将来, 但此处表示 "used to" 过去常做
【Key structures】关键句型
当我们提到过去某一特定时间时, 我们有时可用would来代替used to. 但是, 我们不能在下面这个句子中使用would: This sort of novel used to be very popular.这种小说过去很流行.
be armed with they were armed with.....
went into the cave they went into the cave.
hoping to find they hoped to find.....
如果几个句子的主语是同一事物, 则可以把几个句子合并为一个句子
在把握中心句子的前提下, 注意其他成分的合成. 如果是主动关系, 用ing形式
保留一个句子做主句, 其他的变成非谓语动词
非谓语动词采用何种形式, 则根据其与主语的关系, 如果是主动关系, 用ing, 被动关系, 则用动词的ed形式
主句与其他句子的位置安排要保持句子的平衡, 还要注意动作的连贯
the boy went home. the boy was crying. the boy was beaten
beaten by sb, the boy went home, crying.
armed with / hoping to find
entrance to /of : .....的入口
under the ground
Tired, I went home./ I went home tired.句子顺序不同, 表达的意思也不同
Very exciting, .....形容词短语做状语
如 : Tired of sleeping on the floor, ....(见lesson 49)
two feet deep数词+量词+形容词
long/wide/high/deep
人有多高用 "tall"
I am five years old.
数词+量词+形容词结构可以做定语; 也可以做表语
the street is wide.
the street is five meters wide.
文中 "a small gold coin" 没说成 "a gold small coin"
离名词最近的形容词是最被强调的
in spite of尽管/ though / even if
something of value (这里value n)
of 加名词往往让人联想这名词对应的形容词
of value＝valuable 有价值的
of small value 价值很小(= almost worthless)
形容词要放在不定代词的后边
something important
something of importance
someone patient
someone of patience
