THE NIGHT THE EARTH DIDN’T SLEEP
Strange things were happening in the countryside of northeastern Hebei. For several days, the water in the village wells rose and fell, rose and fell. There were deep cracks1 that appeared in the well walls. At least one well had some smelly gas coming out of it. Chickens and even pigs were too nervous to eat, and dogs refused to go inside buildings. Mice ran out of the fields looking for places to hide, and fish jumped out of the water. At about 3∶00 a．m., on 28 July 1976, bright lights were seen in the sky outside the city of Tangshan and loud noises were heard. But the city’s one million people were asleep as usual that night.
At 3∶42 a．m., everything began to shake. It seemed as if2 the world were coming to an end! Eleven kilometres directly below the city, one of the most deadly earthquakes of the 20th century had begun, a quake that even caused damage more than 150 kilometres away in Beijing. Nearly one third of the whole nation felt it! A huge crack, eight kilometres long and 30 metres wide, cut across houses, roads, and waterways.Hard hills of rock became rivers of dirt. In less than one minute, a large city lay in ruins3. Two thirds of the people who lived there were dead or injured. Thousands of children were left without parents. The number of people who were killed or badly injured in the quake was more than 400,000.
Everywhere survivors looked, there was nothing but ruins. Nearly everything in the city was destroyed. About 75 percent of the city’s factories and buildings, 90 percent of its homes, and all of its hospitals were gone. Bricks4 covered the ground like red autumn leaves, but no wind could blow them away. Most bridges had fallen or were not safe to cross. The railway tracks were now useless pieces of metal5. Tens of thousands of cows, hundreds of thousands of pigs, and millions of chickens were dead. Sand now filled the wells instead of water. People were in shock6—and then, later that afternoon，another big quake shook Tangshan again. Even more buildings fell down. Water, food, and electricity7 were hard to get. People began to wonder how long the disaster would last.(节选自人教版新教材必修第一册 UNIT 4)

自主发现
1．句 中动词不定式作定语。用来修饰表抽象意义的名词的是句 ；不定式表将来的是句 ；用来修饰不定代词的是句 。
2．句 中动词不定式作结果状语。句 表示意想不到的结果，动词不定式常和 连用。
一、动词不定式作定语
(一)动词不定式与所修饰词之间的关系
动词不定式与所修饰词之间的逻辑关系常见的有三种：主谓关系、动宾关系和同位关系。
1．所修饰词与不定式是主谓关系(被修饰词是不定式的逻辑主语)
His father is the right person to find the missing boy.
他父亲就是寻找那个失踪男孩的合适人选。
2．所修饰词与不定式是动宾关系(被修饰词是不定式的逻辑宾语)
Attention，please.I have something important to say.
请注意，我有重要的事情要说。
3．所修饰词与不定式是同位语关系。(不定式与所修饰的词是同一事物)
She expressed a wish to make a change.
她表达了希望做出改变的愿望。
(二)常用不定式作定语的情况
1．当中心词为序数词、最高级、the last、the only等或中心词被这类词修饰时，常用不定式作定语。
She is hard-working and is always the first one to come every day.她很勤奋，每天总是第一个来。
He is the only person to know the truth.
他是唯一了解真相的人。
2．不定式作定语用来修饰的词是抽象名词，常见的有：ability，chance，ambition，anxiety，reply，attempt，wish，plan 等。
He has a wish to travel around the whole country.
他有一个周游全国的愿望。
3．当被修饰的词为something，nothing，anything 等不定代词时，常用不定式作定语。
Every day he makes one of the smaller animals bring him something to eat.
他每天让一个小动物给他带来一些吃的东西。
注意：如果不定式是不及物动词，后面就要加上与其搭配的介词。
The Browns have a comfortable house to live in.布朗一家人有一所舒适的房子住。
There is nothing to worry about.
没有什么可担心的。
二、动词不定式作结果状语
动词不定式作状语表示结果时常用如下结构：
1．so＋形容词/副词＋as to do如此……以至于……
He studied so hard as to pass the last exam.
他如此努力学习以至于通过了最后一次考试。
2．such＋形容词＋名词＋as to do如此……以至于……
He is not such a silly man as to do that.
他还没有蠢到做那种事。
3．enough to do...足够……
The boy was experienced enough to deal with such a person.
对付那样一个人，那个男孩很有经验。
He walked fast enough to keep up with his coach.
他走得很快，赶上了他的教练。
4．too＋形容词/副词＋to do太……而不能……

这个老妇人太虚弱了而搬不动这个沉重的箱子。
The Californian ship arrived too late to save more people.
加利福尼亚号到得太晚，没能挽救更多的人。
注意：
(1)不定式短语表示结果时，常与only连用，暗示一种意外的结果。
He hurried to the station，only to find the train had left.
他匆忙赶到车站，却发现火车已经开走了。
(2)现在分词短语也可以作结果状语，表示由前面的事情引起的一种自然而然的结果。

他的父母早亡，因此他成了孤儿。

[自主翻译]
2．The crowd looked upwards，and saw，with unspeakable fear，a huge cloud shooting from the top of the volcano.
[句式分析] 本句为 句。and连接两个并列谓语 和 ；saw...a huge cloud shooting...是“感官动词＋ ＋ ”结构；介词短语with unspeakable fear在此处作 。

A friend of mine whose name was John Smith had a bad memory，which made him famous.He was so forgetful that he sometimes forgot what he was talking about in the middle of a sentence.His wife had to constantly remind him of his meetings，his classes—even his meals！Once he forgot he had eaten breakfast twice，at home and at school.His wife liked to remind her neighbours，“If John didn’t have his head tied on，he would forget that too！” Since Smith was a professor at a well-known university，his forgetfulness was often an embarrassment to him.He was not stupid，as some critical people tended to say，but just very very absent-minded.
One a hot summer day，Professor Smith decided to take his children to a seaside town about a three-hour train ride away.To make the trip more interesting for his young children，he kept the name of the town a secret.However，by the time they arrived at the station，Smith forgot the name of the town he was planning to visit.Luckily，a friend of his happened to be at the station.He offered to take care of the children while Smith hurried back home to find out where he was going.
The professor’s wife was surprised to see him again so soon.
“Oh，my dear，I forget the name of the town.”
“What？You forget the name？Maybe one day you will forget my name！Now I’ll write the name of that town on a piece of paper，and you put it in your pocket and please，please don’t forget where you put it.”
Satisfied that she had solved the problem，she sent her husband off again.Ten minutes later，she was amazed to see him outside the house for the second time.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
“What is the matter now？” asked his wife.
Hearing the cry，out rushed their neighbours，trying to find out what had happened.
