Reading 课文中译文
演播室内的意外事件
读一读小说《曼迪和安吉拉去欧洲》的节选。在这一节选中，曼迪和她的朋友安吉拉参加了一次电视竞赛节目的录制。
“开始拍摄还有五分钟了，”导演大声说，“都准备好了吗？”
“幸亏我不是一位选手！”曼迪喘着气说，“他们现在真的太紧张了！”
“哦，我倒很想当一名选手呢。”安吉拉说。
三名参赛选手坐在舞台上自己的座位上，等待着，炽热的舞台灯光直射在身上。突然，其中一位女选手站了起来然后就一头向前栽倒在座位前的桌子上。
“啊，太热了，她晕过去了。”曼迪喘着气说。一位录像师把那女选手扶下了台。
导演急忙从舞台对面的控制室跑来。“演出开始之前我们还需要补充一名新的参赛选手，”他大声说，“有谁愿意上电视？”
安吉拉举起了她的手。“你快上舞台吧！”导演高声嘱咐道。他让安吉拉在舞台上坐下，化妆师马上冲上来，并很快为安吉拉扑粉化妆。
“十秒倒计时，”导演大声说，“大家请微笑。提示莱斯特准备！”观众席上大家鼓起掌来。
主持人洪亮而低沉的声音响起：“现在时旅游知识竞赛时间，我是主持人莱斯特·李！”
莱斯特·李跑出来站在桌子前。竞赛节目开始了。
安吉拉表现得好极了。由于她回答问题很轻松，很快就领先于她的两位对手。
然而曼迪却紧张得不行，她坐在位子边上，一边看比赛一边咬着自己的手指甲。
二十五分钟过后，安吉拉战胜了另外两位选手。但她还要回答出六个问题才能赢得大奖。
曼迪非常激动，她已经无法保持安静了。安吉拉五个问题都答对了，现在只剩下最后一个问题了。
“最后一个问题，请问古罗马的圆形大剧场在什么地方？”莱斯特问。
“在意大利罗马。”安吉拉回答。
“回答正确！”莱斯特大声宣布，观众掌声响起来。“你赢得了今晚的大奖——可爱城市巴黎的双人游！”
语法知识 时间状语从句和原因状语从句
状语从句的分类:
1.时间状语从句
2.地点状语从句
3.原因状语从句
4.条件状语从句
5.方式状语从句
6.目的状语从句
7.比较状语从句
8.结果状语从句
9.让步状语从句
时间状语从句
1. 比较while, when, as
1)as, when 引导短暂性动作的动词。例如:
Just as / Just when / When I stopped my car, a man came up to me. 　　　
2)当从句的动作发生于主句动作之前,只能用when 引导这个从句,不可用as 或 while。例如：
When you have finished your work, you may have a rest. 　　　
3)从句表示“随时间推移”连词能用as,不用when 或while。例如：　　　
As the day went on, the weather got worse. 日子一天天过去，天气越变越坏。
2. the moment等一些表示时间的名词短语也可用来引导时间状语从句：这些名词短语如：the minute, the moment, every time, the first time。例如：
The moment he reached the country, he started his search.
他一到达这个国家，就开始他的探寻工作。
Every time I saw the straw hat, it reminded me of the tour I made years before.
每当我看到那顶草帽,它就使我想起几年前的那次旅游。
I thought her nice and honest the first time I met her.
我第一次见到她就觉得她诚实而友善。
3. directly等一些表示时间的副词也可用来引导时间状语从句。例如：
Directly the master came in, everyone was quiet. 校长一进来， 大家就安静下来。
The young lady rushed into the room immediately she heard the noise.
那位年轻女士一听到响声就冲进房间。
4. 比较until和till
此两个连词意义相同。肯定形式表示的意思是“做某事直至某时”，动词必须是延续性的。否定形式表达的意思是“直至某时才做某事”。动词为延续性或非延续性都可以。 正确使用这两个连词的关键之一就在于判断句中的动词该用肯定式还是否定式。
肯定句：　 I slept until midnight. 我一直睡到半夜时醒了。　 Wait till I call you.　 等着我叫你。　 （在肯定句中可用before代替 Let's get in the wheat before the sun sets.）
否定句：　 She didn't arrive until 6 o'clock.　 她直到6点才到。
Don't get off the bus until it has stopped. 公共汽车停稳后再下车。
I didn't manage to do it until you had explained how.　 直到你教我后，我才会做。　 　
Until可用于句首，而till通常不用于句首。例如：　
Until you told me, I had heard nothing of what happened.　　 直到你告诉我以前,出了什么事我一点也不知道。　
Until when 疑问句中，until要放在句首。 　
---Until when are you staying 　你呆到什么时候？--- Until next Monday.　呆到下周一。　
【注意】：否定句用另外句式表示。
Not until …在句首，主句用倒装。例如：　　
Not until the early years of the 19th century did man know what heat is.
直到19 世纪初，人类才知道热能是什么。　　
Not until I began to work did I realize how much time I had wasted. 　
直到我开始工作,我才认识到了我已蹉跎了几多岁月。
5. 表示"一…就…"的结构：hardly/scarcely…when/before, no sooner…than和as soon as都可以表示“一…就…”的意思，例如： 　
I had hardly / scarcely got home when it began to rain.
I had no sooner got home than it began to rain.　
As soon as I got home, it began to rain.　 注意:如果hardly, scarcely 或no sooner置于句首,句子必须用倒装结构，例如：　
Hardly / Scarcely had I got home when it began to rain.　
No sooner had I got home than it began to rain.
6.时间状语从句:(6大考点)
1) when / while / as “当….时候”

原因状语从句
1. 比较：because, since, as和for
1)because语势最强，用来说明人所不知的原因，回答why提出的问题。当原因是显而易见的或已为人们所知，就用as或 since。例如：　
I didn‘t go, because I was afraid.　
Since /As the weather is so bad, we have to delay our journey.
2)由because引导的从句如果放在句末，且前面有逗 号，则可以用for来代替。但如果不是说明直接原因，而是多种情况加以推断，就只能用for。例如：　 He is absent today, because / for he is ill.　 He must be ill, for he is absent today
原因状语从句: (because ; as ;since; for)
1. Mother is worried because little Alice is ill, especially as Father was away in France.

There are many famous museums throughout the world where people can enjoy art. Washington D. C. has the National gallery of Art; Pari has the Louvre; London, the British Museum.Florida International University (FIU) in Minmi also shows art for people to see. And It does so without a building, or even a wall for its drawings and paintings.
FIU has opened what it says is the first computer art museum in the United States. You don’t have to visit the University to see the art. you just need a computer linked to a telephone. You can call the telephone number of a University, and the computer there can connect your own computer to it. All of the art is stored in the school computer, art produced electronically by artists on their own computers. in only a few minutes, your computer can receive and copy all the pictures and drawings.
A computer artist could only record his pictures electronically and send the records, or floppy discs(软盘), to others to see on their computers. He could also put his pictures on paper. But to print good pictures on paper, the computer artist needed an expensive laser printer.
Robert Shostak says the electronic museum is mostly for art or computer students at schools and universities. Many of the pictures in the museum are made by students. Mr. Stostak said the FIU museum will make computer art more fun for computer artists because more people can see it. He says artists enjoy their work much more if they have an audience. And the great number of home computers in America could mean a huge audience for the electronic museum.
Answer the questions or complete the statements in NO MORE THAN TEN WORDS.
1. Florida International Universitgy (FIU) in Minmi provides art for people to enjoy through ___________________________________________________________________________.
2. To see the art in FIU museum, your only need to have _________________________________________________________________________.
