【課文】
First listen and then answer the question.
聽(tīng)錄音，然后回答以下問(wèn)題。
Why did the plane turn back?
I used to travel by air a great deal when I was a boy. My parents used to live in South America and I used to fly there from Europe in the holidays. A flight attendant would take charge of me and I never had an unpleasant experience. I am used to traveling by air and only on one occasion have I ever felt frightened. After taking off, we were flying low over the city and slowly gaining height, when the plane suddenly turned round and flew back to the airport. While we were waiting to land, a flight attendant told us to keep calm and to get off the plane quietly as soon as it had touched down. Everybody on board was worried and we were curious to find out what had happened. Later we learnt that there was a very important person on board. The police had been told that a bomb had been planted on the plane. After we had landed, the plane was searched thoroughly. Fortunately, nothing was found and five hours later we were able to take off again.

【課文】
First listen and then answer the question.

How many people visited the Great Exhibition of 1851?
Perhaps the most extraordinary building of the nineteeth century was the Crystal Palace, which was built in Hyde Park for the Great Exhibition of 1851. The Crystal Palace was different from all other buildings in the world, for it was made of iron and glass. It was one of the biggest buildings of all time and a lot of people from many countries came to see it. A great many goods were sent to the exhibition from various parts of the world. There was also a great deal of machinery on display. The most wonderful piece of machinery on show was Nasmyth's steam hammer. Though in those days, traveling was not as easy as it is today, steam boats carried thousands of visitors across the Channel from Europe. On arriving in England, they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train. There were six million visitors in all, and the profits from the exhibition were used to build museums and colleges. Later, the Crystal Palace was moved to South London. It remained one of the most famous buildings in the world until it was burnt down in 1936.

【知識(shí)點(diǎn)講解】
1. The Crystal Palace was different from all other buildings in the world, for it was made of iron and glass.
這座水晶宮不同于世界上所有的其他建筑，因?yàn)樗怯娩摵筒ＡЫǔ傻摹?BR> ①be different from 和……不同;不同于
His personality is quite different from his brother's.
他的性格跟他哥哥截然不同。
②for it was made of iron and glass.
這個(gè)句子里for后面的分句表示原因、理由，是對(duì)前面分句的補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明。
be made of 由……制成，表示可以看得出原材料，而be made from+材料，表示制作出的東西看不出原材料。
2. a great many 許多，大量 修飾可出名詞，等同于a good many。而a great deal of也可表示許多，大量，但后面只接不可數(shù)名詞。
As the National Day is coming, there are a great many people in the railway station.
國(guó)慶節(jié)即將來(lái)臨，火車(chē)站全是人。
3. traveling was not as easy as it is today.
在當(dāng)時(shí)旅行不像現(xiàn)在這么容易。
as…as 與……等同，達(dá)到與……相同的程度 用于副詞和形容詞之間，以構(gòu)成比較句型，其中后面一個(gè)as用做連詞。
The prices of commodities here are not as expensive as that in Shanghai.
這里的物價(jià)并不像上海那么高。
4. There was also a great deal of machinery on display.
①on display / on show 展出的，在句子中可以作狀語(yǔ)、定語(yǔ)或表語(yǔ)等等。
②machinery 機(jī)器、機(jī)械裝置的總稱(chēng)，是集合名詞，be動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。當(dāng)指某個(gè)具體的機(jī)器時(shí)可用machine或a piece of machinery來(lái)表示。
5. On arriving in England, they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train.
一到英國(guó)，火車(chē)就把他們送到了水晶宮。
on+doing 相當(dāng)于時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)，表示“一……就……” 上述句子相當(dāng)于Soon after they arrived in England, they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train.
6. they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train.
上面這句里面were taken to是個(gè)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)形式。
被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)就是主語(yǔ)時(shí)動(dòng)作的承受者。在漢語(yǔ)中我們常用“被”“由”來(lái)表達(dá)這種被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。
被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)是由“助動(dòng)詞be+及物動(dòng)詞的過(guò)去分詞”構(gòu)成，如有必要強(qiáng)調(diào)動(dòng)作的執(zhí)行者，則動(dòng)作執(zhí)行者可由介詞by引出的短語(yǔ)表示。助動(dòng)詞be隨主語(yǔ)的人稱(chēng)、樹(shù)、時(shí)態(tài)和語(yǔ)氣的不同而變化。例如：
I was told that I should work overtime during the holiday.
我被告知節(jié)假日里要加班。
The expressway is being repaired by the workers.
工人們正在修高速公路。

【課文】
First listen and then answer the question.
聽(tīng)錄音，然后回答以下問(wèn)題。
Why did the prisoner attack the driver?
When he had killed the guard, the prisoner of war quickly dragged him into the bushes. Working rapidly in the darkness, he soon changed into the dead man's clothes. Now, dressed in a blue uniform and with a rifle over his shoulder, the prisoner marched boldly up and down in front of the camp. He could hear shouting in the camp itself. Lights were blazing and men were running here and there: they had just discovered that a prisoner had escaped. At that moment, a large black car with four officers inside it, stopped at the camp gates. The officers got out and the prisoner stood to attention and saluted as they passed. When they had gone, the driver of the car came towards him. The man obviously wanted to talk. He was rather elderly with grey hair and clear blue eyes. The prisoner felt sorry for him, but there was nothing else he could do. As the man came near, the prisoner knocked him to the ground with a sharp blow. Then, jumping into the car, he drove off as quickly as he could.

【知識(shí)點(diǎn)講解】
1. When he had killed the guard, the prisoner of war quickly dragged him into the bushes.
這個(gè)句子里he和the prisoner是同一個(gè)人，在敘述時(shí)為了避免重復(fù)，就將其中一個(gè)用代詞表示。
drag、draw和pull都有拖、拽的意思，它們的區(qū)別如下：
drag: 指沿斜坡而上或水平方向緩慢地拖或拉十分沉重的人或物。作借喻時(shí)可指把人硬拉過(guò)來(lái)。
draw: 指將人或物朝出力者的方向拖，不涉及力的大小，含平穩(wěn)意味，常作借喻用。
pull: 普通用詞，包含本組其它各詞的一些意思，可指朝各個(gè)方向拉，側(cè)重一時(shí)或突然拉動(dòng)的動(dòng)作。

She dressed in blue evening dress to attend the banquet.
她穿著藍(lán)色晚禮服去參加晚宴。
②march up and down 來(lái)回踱步，走來(lái)走去
3. He could hear shouting in the camp itself.
他聽(tīng)得軍營(yíng)里面的喧鬧聲。
①hear同see、watch、feel、notice等感觀動(dòng)詞一樣，其賓語(yǔ)后所接的不定式不含to。例如：
I often hear her sing.
我常聽(tīng)到她唱歌。
但當(dāng)hear用于被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)時(shí)，不定式中要含to。
She is often heard to sing.
人們經(jīng)常聽(tīng)到她唱歌。
②hear的賓語(yǔ)后既可接不定式，也可接動(dòng)名詞。但是在表示“故意聽(tīng)……”時(shí)，只能用不定式。

軍官們下了車(chē)，戰(zhàn)俘立正站好，并在他們從他面前經(jīng)過(guò)時(shí)敬了禮。
① stand to attention 立正，當(dāng)在軍事訓(xùn)練中喊到“立正”這一口號(hào)時(shí)可直接用“Attention”表示。
② salute 及物動(dòng)詞 表示“行禮、致意、問(wèn)候”。
We salute the flag every Monday at school.

5. As the man came near, the prisoner knocked him to the ground with a sharp blow.
當(dāng)這個(gè)人走近時(shí)，戰(zhàn)俘一拳把他*在地。
① come near 走近，接近;幾乎
② knock to the ground *在地
③ 這個(gè)句子是由as引導(dǎo)的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句。
我們目前接觸得比較多的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句多由when、while、as引導(dǎo)。
A. when引導(dǎo) a. 表示“當(dāng)……的時(shí)候” 可與延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞或非延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞連用。例如：

B. while引導(dǎo) a. 表示“當(dāng)……的時(shí)候” 與延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞連用，主要強(qiáng)調(diào)的是主語(yǔ)的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞表示的動(dòng)作發(fā)生在從句謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞表示的動(dòng)作期間，即在一個(gè)過(guò)程中插入某動(dòng)作。
While I was in my postgraduate study, I enjoyed reading in the library.

1. The Crystal Palace was different from all other buildings in the world, for it was made of iron and glass.
這座水晶宮不同于世界上所有的其他建筑，因?yàn)樗怯娩摵筒ＡЫǔ傻摹?BR> ①be different from 和……不同;不同于
His personality is quite different from his brother's.
他的性格跟他哥哥截然不同。
②for it was made of iron and glass.
這個(gè)句子里for后面的分句表示原因、理由，是對(duì)前面分句的補(bǔ)充說(shuō)明。
be made of 由……制成，表示可以看得出原材料，而be made from+材料，表示制作出的東西看不出原材料。
2. a great many 許多，大量 修飾可出名詞，等同于a good many。而a great deal of也可表示許多，大量，但后面只接不可數(shù)名詞。
As the National Day is coming, there are a great many people in the railway station.
國(guó)慶節(jié)即將來(lái)臨，火車(chē)站全是人。
3. traveling was not as easy as it is today.
在當(dāng)時(shí)旅行不像現(xiàn)在這么容易。
as…as 與……等同，達(dá)到與……相同的程度 用于副詞和形容詞之間，以構(gòu)成比較句型，其中后面一個(gè)as用做連詞。
The prices of commodities here are not as expensive as that in Shanghai.
這里的物價(jià)并不像上海那么高。
4. There was also a great deal of machinery on display.
①on display / on show 展出的，在句子中可以作狀語(yǔ)、定語(yǔ)或表語(yǔ)等等。
②machinery 機(jī)器、機(jī)械裝置的總稱(chēng)，是集合名詞，be動(dòng)詞用單數(shù)。當(dāng)指某個(gè)具體的機(jī)器時(shí)可用machine或a piece of machinery來(lái)表示。
5. On arriving in England, they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train.
一到英國(guó)，火車(chē)就把他們送到了水晶宮。
on+doing 相當(dāng)于時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)，表示“一……就……” 上述句子相當(dāng)于Soon after they arrived in England, they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train.
6. they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train.
上面這句里面were taken to是個(gè)被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)形式。
被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)就是主語(yǔ)時(shí)動(dòng)作的承受者。在漢語(yǔ)中我們常用“被”“由”來(lái)表達(dá)這種被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)。
被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)是由“助動(dòng)詞be+及物動(dòng)詞的過(guò)去分詞”構(gòu)成，如有必要強(qiáng)調(diào)動(dòng)作的執(zhí)行者，則動(dòng)作執(zhí)行者可由介詞by引出的短語(yǔ)表示。助動(dòng)詞be隨主語(yǔ)的人稱(chēng)、樹(shù)、時(shí)態(tài)和語(yǔ)氣的不同而變化。例如：
I was told that I should work overtime during the holiday.
我被告知節(jié)假日里要加班。
The expressway is being repaired by the workers.
工人們正在修高速公路。
《新概念英語(yǔ)》第二冊(cè)第81課: Escape
【課文】
First listen and then answer the question.
聽(tīng)錄音，然后回答以下問(wèn)題。
Why did the prisoner attack the driver?
When he had killed the guard, the prisoner of war quickly dragged him into the bushes. Working rapidly in the darkness, he soon changed into the dead man's clothes. Now, dressed in a blue uniform and with a rifle over his shoulder, the prisoner marched boldly up and down in front of the camp. He could hear shouting in the camp itself. Lights were blazing and men were running here and there: they had just discovered that a prisoner had escaped. At that moment, a large black car with four officers inside it, stopped at the camp gates. The officers got out and the prisoner stood to attention and saluted as they passed. When they had gone, the driver of the car came towards him. The man obviously wanted to talk. He was rather elderly with grey hair and clear blue eyes. The prisoner felt sorry for him, but there was nothing else he could do. As the man came near, the prisoner knocked him to the ground with a sharp blow. Then, jumping into the car, he drove off as quickly as he could.

【知識(shí)點(diǎn)講解】
1. When he had killed the guard, the prisoner of war quickly dragged him into the bushes.
這個(gè)句子里he和the prisoner是同一個(gè)人，在敘述時(shí)為了避免重復(fù)，就將其中一個(gè)用代詞表示。
drag、draw和pull都有拖、拽的意思，它們的區(qū)別如下：
drag: 指沿斜坡而上或水平方向緩慢地拖或拉十分沉重的人或物。作借喻時(shí)可指把人硬拉過(guò)來(lái)。
draw: 指將人或物朝出力者的方向拖，不涉及力的大小，含平穩(wěn)意味，常作借喻用。
pull: 普通用詞，包含本組其它各詞的一些意思，可指朝各個(gè)方向拉，側(cè)重一時(shí)或突然拉動(dòng)的動(dòng)作。

3. He could hear shouting in the camp itself.
他聽(tīng)得軍營(yíng)里面的喧鬧聲。
①hear同see、watch、feel、notice等感觀動(dòng)詞一樣，其賓語(yǔ)后所接的不定式不含to。例如：
I often hear her sing.
我常聽(tīng)到她唱歌。
但當(dāng)hear用于被動(dòng)語(yǔ)態(tài)時(shí)，不定式中要含to。
She is often heard to sing.
人們經(jīng)常聽(tīng)到她唱歌。
②hear的賓語(yǔ)后既可接不定式，也可接動(dòng)名詞。但是在表示“故意聽(tīng)……”時(shí)，只能用不定式。
I often hear her sing.

hear from sb. 接到……的信 hear about / of 聽(tīng)說(shuō)

當(dāng)這個(gè)人走近時(shí)，戰(zhàn)俘一拳把他*在地。
① come near 走近，接近;幾乎
② knock to the ground *在地
③ 這個(gè)句子是由as引導(dǎo)的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句。
我們目前接觸得比較多的時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)從句多由when、while、as引導(dǎo)。
A. when引導(dǎo) a. 表示“當(dāng)……的時(shí)候” 可與延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞或非延續(xù)性動(dòng)詞連用。例如：
