第3课时 Section A (Grammar Focus-4c)
单元语法突破
一般过去时的被动语态
一、结构
肯定 句式 主语+was∕were+过去分词(+by...) The house was built in 2018.这栋房子建于2018年。
否定 句式 主语+was∕were+not+过去分词(+by...) Jim was not invited to Linda’s birthday party.
吉姆没有被邀请去参加琳达的生日聚会。
疑问 句式 Was∕Were+主语+过去分词(+by...) Were flowers and grass planted by them along the road last year 去年他们沿路种植了一些花草吗
疑问词+was∕were+主语+过去分词(+by...)   When was the sports meeting held 运动会是什么时候举行的
二、特殊的被动语态
1.含双宾语主动句变为被动语态的方法
(1)含有双宾语的主动句变成被动句时,通常把指“人”的间接宾语变为主语,指“物”的直接
宾语保留不变。
(2)如果要把指“物”的直接宾语变为主语,则在间接宾语前加to或for。
He lent me a bike.→ I was lent a bike(by him).
→A bike was lent to me(by him).
他借给了我一辆自行车。
2.含复合宾语主动句变为被动语态的方法
若主动句为“主语+谓语+宾语+宾补”这种复合宾语结构时,则只能将宾语变为被动结构的主
语,宾补变成被动结构的主语补足语。
We call him Mr.Wang.→He is called Mr.Wang by us.
我们叫他王老师。
注意:若主动语态中的宾补是省略to的不定式,变为被动语态时需把to补上。
They heard her sing a song at the party.
→She was heard to sing a song at the party(by them).
在晚会上他们听她唱了一首歌。

Tea and coffee are two of the most popular drinks in the world.However,people usually like one more than the other.These drinks also have very different uses.
Tea drinking started in China over 4,000 years ago.Tea is made from leaves. These days,some people drink tea for health,using it to help with stress(压力) or losing weight.However,most people in tea-drinking countries think of tea as more than just a healthy drink.In fact,tea drinking in some countries is a part of the culture.In Turkey(土耳其),tea is always there when people meet.Whether in someone’s home or a company,tea is always offered as a way of welcoming.In the UK,homes and offices usually have tea time.Tea and other dishes are served at tea time in the afternoon.It is a way of relaxing with friends or co-workers(同事).
Coffee came much later than tea,just over 1,000 years ago.Coffee is made from beans.Something in the coffee beans makes a person feel active.Most people do not drink coffee to relax.Instead,they drink coffee to get going.Many people drink coffee in the morning to help them wake up.Others will also drink coffee during short breaks in the afternoon to keep going through the working day.Some people may visit coffee shops just to meet and talk with friends.However,many people in coffee shops drink coffee while working on their computers.

[科学精神]In the past ten years,great progress has been made in technology.It seems like everything has been greatly improved.But there is one thing unlike them.It was invented over 100 years ago but remained unchanged until now.I’m talking about a blind walking stick.
The white stick has been used by many blind people for a long time.However,it hasn’t really been improved,until a blind engineer named Kursat decided to do something to change that.He hoped his invention would help the blind.
He invented a smart stick called the WeWalk.The smart stick uses built-in speakers and different sensors(传感) to warn about possible dangers.It helps blind people in navigating(航行) around their environment.It makes their travel much easier.The stick is priced at around $500.It is less than half the price of most smartphones.Most people can afford it.This invention is going to change life a lot for the blind.
Kursat well understands the difficulties that the blind face.That’s because he is blind himself.He decided to put his knowledge of technology into inventing something.It would not only change his life,but also the life of many others.
“In these days,we are talking about flying cars.But the blind have been using just a simple stick.As a blind person,when I am at the bus stop,I don’t know which bus is coming or which stores are around me.Now,that kind of information can be provided by the WeWalk,” he said.“I believe life of the blind will be much easier and safer.”

As a traditional and meaningful board game,Weiqi was invented in China more than 2,500 years ago and it is still played until today.
The playing pieces are called stones.One player uses the white stones and the other,black.The players take turns to play the stones on the game board.As we know,the board surface has 361 cross points.The stones are placed on them.
Weiqi is also called Go in the world.Learning it can not only improve people’s logical thinking ability,but it can also develop their calm character.That’s why it is more and more popular with modern people.
In the Sui and Tang Dynasties,Weiqi traveled to Japan,and then to Europe in the 19th century.Now it has grown into an international competition event.So far,people from over 40 countries have played it.Among them,players from China,Japan and Korea have the highest level of Weiqi.
On February 19,Chinese-English Dictionary of Weiqi Terms(术语) came out in Beijing.It’s the first professional dictionary about Weiqi in China.As a symbol of Chinese culture,Weiqi has its special language.It also has its own way of thinking and the method of communicating.The dictionary will serve as a necessary tool and bridge for spreading Weiqi culture.

Bridges are built over roads,rivers,or railways.They appeared a long time ago.Back then,they were built with stone,ropes and logs(原木).Some were very simple,like a footbridge(人行桥) made out of a big tree.1.    This is because we have better technology today.
Bridges are a mix of maths,physics,design,and architecture(建筑).They are designed by skilled engineers and they take years to build.
Bridges must be strong enough to support not only their own weight,but also the weight of the people and vehicles(交通工具).They must last a long time and be built in a way that protects them from earthquakes,strong winds,and freezing.

2.    Let’s take a closer look at each one.
Arch(拱) bridges were invented a long time ago by the Romans.They were built out of stone or brick(砖).
Beam bridges are horizontal(水平的) beams supported by many columns(柱子).3.   
These bridges are very old as well,and people used stone and trees to build them.
Suspension bridges have a tower(索塔) on either side.The towers are connected by cables.They are more modern,with the first ones being built in the early 19th century.
The oldest bridge in the world is the Zhaozhou Bridge in China.4.    But if you’re looking for one of the most beautiful and famous bridges,it would be the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco.It’s a suspension bridge built in 1937.It is 2.78 kilometers long.If you think that’s long,you should see the Danyang-kunshan Grand Bridge in China.It’s over 164.85 kilometers long!5.
