知识概要
Unit 6 An old man tried to move the
mountains.
课时讲练
Section A （第一、二课时）
1.As soon as the man finished talking, Yu Gong said that his family could continue to move the mountains after he died.
那人一说完，愚公就说他家人在他死后还能继续移山。
as soon as意为“一……就……”，引导时间状语从句。主句用将来时，从句用一般现在时，即遵循“主将从现”原则。例如：
I’ll tell him the news as soon as he comes here. 他一来我就告诉他那个消息。
2.This story reminds us that you can never know what’s possible unless you try to make it happen. 这个故事提示我们，如果不努力去做点什么，你永远不会知道什么是可能的。
remind意为“提醒，使想起”。通常有以下几种用法。
（1）remind sb. of sth. 意为“使某人想起某事”。例如：
The photo reminds me of my childhood. 那张照片使我想起了我的童年。
（2）“remind + 从句”意为“记得……”。例如：
The ring reminds me that I have to go to school. 铃声提醒我该上学了。
（3）remind sb. to do sth.意为“提醒某人做某事”。例如：
Please remind me to get off the car when we get to the zoo.
到动物园时请提醒我下车。
3.But what could Yu Gong do instead of moving the mountains 但是除了移山，愚公还能做什么？
instead of意为“代替，反而”。后可接名词、代词、形容词、动词-ing等。例如：
At last, I chose to learn the violin instead of the guitar. 最终，我选择学习小提琴，而不是吉他。
Jack is ill, so I’ll play in the basketball game instead of him.
杰克病了，所以我将代替他参加篮球比赛。
Taking exercise every day makes him look younger instead of older. 天天锻炼使他看上去更年轻而不是更苍老。
We read books in the library instead of flying kites on the beach.
我们在图书馆读书，而不是去海滩放风筝。
【辨析】instead 与instead of的用法区别。
词 语 词 义 区 别
instead 代替；顶替 后面不跟任何内容，在句子中作状语。
instead of 代替…… 后面接代替的内容。
例如：
Why don’t you come and play football instead 你为什么不来踢足球呢？
They went to the cinema instead of staying at home.他们没有待在家里而是去看电影了。
4.But unless he can hide his tail, he cannot turn himself into a
man. 但是，他不能变成人，除非能把尾巴藏起来。
（1）unless意为“除非，如果不”，相当于“if…not”。unless引导的是条件状语从句，常用一般现在时表示将来。例如：
I won’t go shopping tomorrow unless it’s fine. =I won’t go shopping if it is not fine. 我明天不去购物，除非天晴。（如果明天不天晴，我就不去购物。）
You will fail unless you work hard. 如果你不努力工作, 就会失败。
（2）“turn…into…”意为“把……变成……”。例如：
You can turn ice into water if you heat it.
如果加热，就能把冰变成水。
After years of hard work, they have turned the desert into a forest.
经过多年的辛勤工作，他们把沙漠变成了一片森林。
5.The Monkey King has excited the children of China for many years. 美猴王已经使中国的孩子们兴奋了好多年。
excited意为“激动的，兴奋的”，多用来形容人的情绪或感受；而exciting意为“令人激动的，令人兴奋的”，多用来形容客观事物体现在外的性质，其修饰的对象多为事物。例如：
I was very excited when I heard the good news. 当我听到那个好消息，我非常激动。
Please be quiet. I have some exciting news to tell you. 请安静一下，我有一些令人激动的消息告诉你们。
【拓展】英语中还有很多用法相同的以“-ed”和“-ing”结尾的形容词，如：surprised, surprising; interested, interesting; moved, moving; frightened, frightening; puzzled, puzzling等。例如：
I’m interested in the book I bought yesterday. 我对我昨天买的书感兴趣。
The movie is so interesting that I want to watch it again. 那部电影真有趣，我想再看一遍。
6.The prince knew that unless the girl’s foot could fit the shoe, it was not the right girl. 王子知道，如果鞋不合女孩的脚，她就不是那个女孩。
（1）fit可以作及物动词，意为“适合，合身”。例如：
The shirt fits me very well. 这件衬衣很合我身。
My feet don’t fit the shoes. 这双鞋我穿着不合脚。
I don’t know if the work fits you. You have a try. 我不知道那份工作是否适合你。但你可以试一下。
（2）fit还可以作形容词，意为“健康的，合适的”。作“合适的”讲，常用于短语be fit for。例如：
We need to do exercise every day to keep fit. 我们需要每天锻炼，以保持健康。
He was fit for the job. 他适合做那份工作。
7.The new couple were so happy that they couldn’t stop smiling when they got married. 这对新婚夫妇太高兴了，当他们结婚时，一直在笑。
（1）marry意为“结婚，与……结婚”。be married/get married表示结婚的状态。例如：
Are you married 你结婚了吗？
Jack got married last week. 杰克上周结婚了。
Michael married Jane last year. 去年迈克尔和简结婚了。（注意该句中没有介词）
Bob has been married to Alice. 鲍勃和爱丽丝结婚了。（注意该句中有介词to）
（2）“so…that”意为“如此……以至于”，中间应该用形容词或副词，that引导的是结果状语从句。例如：
The high-speed railway runs so fast that it can save us lots of time. 高铁跑得那么快，能给我们省不少时间。
The river is so wide that we can’t swim across it. 河太宽了，我们游不过去。

A frog lived in a small well （井）. He said to a turtle （乌龟） who lived in the East Sea, “I’m so happy! When I go out, I jump out of the well. When I come home, I rest in the holes on the wall of the well. If I walk in the mud （泥），it will cover up my feet. I look around here, and no one can compare with me. I’m the owner of this well. My dear sir, why don’t you come over and look around my place？”
Then the turtle told the frog about the East Sea.
“You have no idea how large and how deep the sea is. In the past, there were floods for many years, but the water in the sea didn’t become more. And when it was dry for many years, the water in the sea didn’t become less. The sea doesn’t change with time and it doesn’t rise or fall as the rain falls or not, either. The greatest happiness is to live in the East Sea. ” After hearing this, the frog was shocked.

Long ago, there was a fairy on a large island. She was the strongest and cleverest among all the fairies. However, she was very ugly （难看的）. On the island, every fairy thought beauty was the most important thing for a fairy, so the ugly fairy had no friends. Every time she was sent to save someone in trouble, before she could say a word, the person would shout loudly, “Ugly! Get out of here!”
She was sad and wanted to use her magic to become beautiful. But then she remembered what her mother told her, “My dear, you are what you are, and never change your looks just for such a simple reason.”
One day, some witches （女巫） from a small island attacked the island—the ugly fairy’s home. All the fairies were sent to prison. The ugly fairy changed herself into a witch just before she was caught. Then she followed the witches back to their island and held a party for them. While the witches were having fun at the party, she went to free all the fairies. Then they worked together to fight against the witches and put them in prison.
After that, no fairies laughed at the ugly fairy. They realized that beauty was not the most important thing.
