Reading

Many people consider Albert Einstein(1879-1955) a genius. This story about him shows that he also had a sense of humour.
Einstein often received invitations to explain his theories at different universities. On these trips, his driver Hans often said to him, “It’s a pleasure to drive a genius like you, Dr Einstein.”
One evening, on their way to a university, Einstein said, “ I’m so tired. I wish I could avoid giving my lecture tonight, Hans, but I don’t want to let my audience down.”
“I know what to do,” said Hans. “ I can give the lecture for you. You can trust me. I’ve listened to your lecture so many times that I’ve learnt it by heart.
No one knows you at this university, so they won’t find out.”
So, they changed places. At the university, Hans was guided to the front of the hall. Einstein took a seat, listened to Hans give his lecture without difficulty, and joined in the applause at the end.
However, before Hans left, a man shouted, “I’d like to ask you a question.” He then asked a question so difficult that Hans had no idea what he was talking about.
Einstein turned pale. “Oh no!” he thought. “Now we’re in trouble. “But Hans just laughed and said, “That’s such an easy question that even my driver can answer it. Hans, please …” Einstein stood up and answered the question perfectly.
They left the university, with Einstein driving. A little later, Hans offered to drive. “No,” laughed Einstein, “It’s a pleasure to drive a genius like you, Hans.”

Infinitives
不定式的基本形式为:to+动词原形。有时可以不用to,这里的to是不定式符号,本身没有词义,动词不定式的否定形式是“not+(+to)+动词原形”。动词不定式具有名词、形容词和副词的特征,因此在句中可以做主语、表语、宾语、宾语补足语、定语或状语。
I. 不定的句法功能:
1 不定式做主语 To learn English well is not easy.学好英语不容易。 It is important for students to learn English well.学好英语对学生来说是很重要的。 (固定句型“It is+adj.+ for sb. to do sth.”中,不定式作主语而结构后置,it为形式主语)
2 不定式做宾语 She promised to come at nine o’ clock. 她答应九点来的。 I have decided to study English. 我已决定学英语了。 不定式用在及物动词后作宾语:begin,choose,continue,decide,except,fail,forget,hate,help,hope,learn,manage,mean,need,offer,plan,prefer,pretend,promise,refuse,try,wait,want,wish,determine,dare,attempt,afford,agree,start,like
3 不定式做定语 He was the first to come to the classroom. 他是第一个来到教室的人。 (不定式位于修饰的名词或代词后) I want some paper to write on. 我想要一些写字的纸。 That girl has nothing to worried about.那个女孩没有什么好担心的。 (不定式是不及物动词,且所修饰的名词是不定式动作的地点、工具等时,不定式后面就应有必要的介词) Have you got anything important to buy 你有什么重要的东西要买吗? (不定式修饰复合不定代词something,anything,nothing等时,词序是“复合不定代词+adj+不定式”)
4 不定式做表语 My dream is to become a famous scientist. 我的梦想是成为一名著名的科学家。
5 不定式做宾补 Mother asks me not to play computer games before finishing my homework. 在我写完作业前,妈妈不让我玩电脑游戏。 后跟不定式作宾补:tell,ask,want,allow,get,would like,encourage,beg,order,teach,warn,wish,advise,cause

II. 不定式的主要句型:
1 疑问词+不定式 The question is when to start. 问题是什么时候开始。 What to do is an important question.该做什么是一个很重要的问题。 不定式可以和疑问代词who,what,which、疑问副词when,where,how及whether(是否)连用构成不定式短语。且常与know,show,teach,tell,learn,forget动词连用。
2 too...to和enough...to The student was too frightened to say a word. 这个学生太害怕了,以至于不能说一句话。(too+adj/adv+to do sth 太……以至于不能……) Tom runs fast enough to catch up with Eric. Tom跑得那么快,能赶上Eric。 (adj/adv+enough to do sth …… 足以做……)
3 It be +adj+of/for sb+to do sth It’s necessary for the young to master two foreign language.对年轻人来说掌握两门外语很有必要。 It’s very kind of you to say so. 谢谢你的美言。 注意:形容词修饰的是不定式用for,形容词修饰的是人用of。

Einstein and the little girl
One afternoon, Einstein was walking home from work. At the same time, a 12-year-old girl was walking home from school. They were soon walking side by side. The girl looked at him curiously from time to time.
“Pardon me,” the girl said, “but you look just like Albert Einstein.”
“That’s because I am Albert Einstein!” Einstein said.
“I don’t believe you,” the girl said. “Everyone knows that Einstein is a genius. But you’re wearing your sweater backwards, so you can’t be very clever.”
Einstein began to laugh. “You’re the first person to be so honest with me, “he said to the girl. “it’s a pleasure to hear someone tell me the truth about my look.”
After that day, the girl often went to visit Einstein’s house after school. One afternoon, the girl’s mother went to visit Einstein. She asked him why he spent so much time with her daughter.
“Our friendship is easy to explain,” Einstein said. “Your daughter tells me the truth about my look and brings me cookies. In return, I help her with her Maths homework.”
at the same time
1)同时,一齐。表示两者以上的动作同时开始或进行,主要强调某一片刻时间;
