Unit 4 Public transport
【美文阅读】
Who invented the traffic signal?
1868年12月10日,由英国机械师德·哈特设计的一盏红、绿两色的煤气交通信号灯是城市街道的第一盏信号灯。它的出现使城市交通大为改善,也为后来交通信号灯的完善奠定了基础。
Traffic lights had been in use even before cars were invented.In those days,people used horses,wagons(四轮马车)and other means of transport. But the traffic was still horrible. So in 1868 in London, England, traffic policemen came up with a basic device: A lantern with two lights-red and green.Green stood for “caution”and red for“stop”.A policeman would turn the lights regularly with a lever (控制杆). Unfortunately this early traffic light proved unsafe. One model exploded a year later and hurt the operator.
Things made a turn for the worse when cars were invented. Some people were using new cars,and others were still riding horses, wagons or bicycles. They all shared the same roads and streets with pedestrians(行人). A lot of accidents took place as a result.A traffic police officer named William L. Potts.from Detroit, Michigan knew something had to be done.He designed a traffic signal device that could serve four-way streets. He used three colors—red, yellow and green. He put the signals together with electric controls and wires. In 1920, he had it installed on the Michigan Avenue-Woodward corner street.There were the first automatic traffic signals. Detroit police went on to add fourteen more of these in twelve months.

(1)本句是简单句,句子主干是a wealthy American businessman undertook improving the system。 having seen the situation是现在分词短语的完成式,作时间状语,表示分词动作发生在谓语动作之前。
Having finished her homework,the little girl began to watch TV.做完作业后,这个小女孩开始看电视。
Having been told many times,he still did not know how to do it.(人家)已经告诉他许多次了,他还是不知道怎么做。

①形式:doing,being done,having done,having been done
②逻辑主语:一般为句子的主语,否则要在分词前加上
其自身的逻辑主语构成分词的独立结构
③时态特征:用一般式时,分词动作与谓语动作(几乎)同时发生;用完成式时,分词动作先于谓语动作发生
④语态特征:用主动式表示构成分词的动词与其逻辑主语为主谓关系,否则则为动宾关系
⑤转换:作时间状语的现在分词一般可转换为as,when或while引导的时间状语从句

C.To find D.Found
【解析】 句意:发现这门课程很难,她决定转向难度低一些的课程。本句的主语为she,与find之间为主谓关系,要用现在分词短语作状语,故正确答案为B项。考生可能会受思维定式的影响而选C项,理解成动词不定式作目的状语。由语境可知,此处不是为了发现这门课程很难,故C项不正确。分析清楚主语与非谓语动词之间的关系是解题关键。
【答案】 B
用括号中动词的适当形式填空

本句是并列句,and连接两个并列分句。第二个分句是个含有if引导的宾语从句的复合句,该宾语从句是“It+be+形容词+to do sth.”句式,其中it是形式主语,不定式是真正的主语。
It's possible for you to make the wrong decision.你有可能作出了错误的决定。

【提示】 在“It's+adj.+for/of sb.to do sth.”句式中,如果形容词是说明不定式(to do)行为的特点,如easy,difficult,hard,important,necessary,impossible,expensive等时,用介词for;如果形容词是说明人(sb.)的性格特点,如good,kind,nice,wise,clever,brave,honest,crazy,stupid等时,用介词of,且此句式可改为“sb.+be+adj.+to do”结构。
【对接高考】
(2012·辽宁高考)This machine is very easy ________.Anybody can learn to use it in a few minutes.
A.operating B.to be operating
C.operated D.to operate
【解析】 句意:这台机器很容易操作,任何人都可以在几分钟内学会使用它。此句式中动词不定式作状语,与句子主语构成动宾关系,故用主动形式表达被动意义。分析本题时我们首先要分析出句子的结构是:sth.is+形容词+非谓语动词,这样我们知道在这个结构中,非谓语动词使用的是动词不定式,因此排除A、C两项。B项采用的是动词不定式的进行式,表达的是一个正在进行中的动作,而“这种机器很容易操作”是一个常态。

信息告知类电子邮件
一、电子邮件的写法
电子邮件即Email,是人们在因特网上沟通的一种常见形式,其写法跟书信基本一致,它的显著特点就是简单明了。一般来说,电子邮件可分为以下几部分:
1.收件人地址:在标题栏的“收件人(To)”框中输入收信人的Email地址如 Li Ping @ yahoo.com等,顶格写在邮件的第一行。
2.主题:“主题(Subject)”框的内容应简明地概括信的内容。
3.称呼:Email一般使用非正式的文体,因此正文前的称呼通常无需使用诸如Dear Mr.John之类的表达。在同辈的亲朋好友或同事间可以直呼其名,如Hi,Tom,但对长辈或上级最好使用头衔并使用姓。
4.正文:写Email和写英文书信相差不多。
5.信尾客套话:信尾客套话通常也很简明。常常只需一个词,如:Thanks,Best,Cheers等;不需要用一般信函中的Sincerely yours,Best regards等。
6.签名:其写法和书信的签名一样,指发件人的姓名,写在客套结束语的下面一行(或两行)。
二、信息告知类电子邮件一般包括三部分
1.开头要表明写作目的,即明确要告知的信息。
2.主体部分应详细告知相关问题的细节,以使接收者能明白所告知信息的相关内容。
3.最后通常表达期盼和祝愿。
三、电子邮件常用的开头、结尾表达法
1.邮件开头常见用语:
I am delighted to receive your letter.
It was a great pleasure to learn that...
I'm writing to you to...
I'm writing to you about...
I'm so pleased to hear from you and am writing to tell you something about...
