课文语法结构分析
It’s strange, but I don’t really remember much about the hurricane itself. It all happened so quickly. I was sitting in my room with my cat, Smartie, on my lap, when the roof just flew off. All of a sudden, there was sky where the roof had been. I was so frightened that I just froze.
so + adj.+that引导结果状语从句
when并列连词,与前面was sitting构成并列句,意思是“正在做...这时...”.
where引导地点状语从句
说来也怪,我对飓风本身的印象并不深。一切都发生的太快了。当时我正坐在自己的房间里,猫咪斯玛蒂趴在我腿上,突然屋顶就飞走了。霎时间,屋顶变成了天空。我吓呆了。
Stars after the storm 风暴过后现繁星
突然(=suddenly)
Para. 1
Mom cried to get out quickly, but it was already too late by then. The rain was coming down so hard and so fast. Our street turned into a river in seconds. We were going nowhere.

adv.什么地方都不,无处
Stars after the storm 风暴过后现繁星
Para. 2
At first, I was pleased we could stay at home, but soon it got really tough. Without a roof, staying inside was too dangerous. There was water everywhere, but we couldn’t drink any of it otherwise we’d get really sick. We just had drinking water that was never enough. It was August, so it was really, really hot and it smelled so bad everywhere! I just spent the days watching the boats going up and down the street and looking out for Smartie. He had disappeared the moment the storm hit.
the moment 引导时间状语从句
动名词短语作主语,谓语要用单数。
watch sb./sth. doing sth.复合宾语结构,看着某人/物正在做某事
一开始我还庆幸我们能待在家里,但很快情况就糟糕起来。没了屋顶,待在屋内是十分危险的。到处都是水,可我们一滴也不能喝,否则就会染上重病。我们只能喝直升机送来的饮用水,但总是不够喝。当时是八月,天气非常非常热,到处都散发着难闻的气味!我只能整天看着街上来来往往的船只,留意寻找斯玛蒂的身影。风暴袭来的那一刻它就失踪了。
来回,往复;起伏,上下波动
留意寻找……
Stars after the storm 风暴过后现繁星
Para. 3
Living in the open air, we became breakfast, lunch and dinner for the mosquitos. But Mom said that whatever happens, we should always try to see the good side of things. It was difficult to stay positive, though. We had lost our home and everything in it, including Smartie. All we had left were the clothes on our backs. But as Mom kept on reminding us, we were all together and safe. Mom’s words made us feel better. I remember us all lying under the midnight sky and looking up at the stars. Because there were no lights, we could see the Big Dipper, the Little Dipper and the Milky Way. It was amazing! Even though we had lost a lot, moments like those gave us hope for the future.
it是形式主语,to stay是真正主语。stay positive保持乐观;though句末副词,然而,不过。
现在分词短语作原因状语
that引导宾语从句,作said宾语。
我们住在露天的环境里成了蚊子的一日三餐。不过妈妈说不管发生什么,我们都应该尽量看到事情好的一面。然而保持乐观却不那么容易。我们的家毁了,家里的一切也都没了,斯玛蒂也不见了。我们只剩下身上的衣服了。不过就像妈妈一直提醒我们的那样,好在全家人都在一起而且平安无事。妈妈的话让我们心情好些了。我还记得那时我们躺在午夜的苍穹之下,仰望星空。因为没有灯光,我们能看到北斗七星、小北斗七星和银河。太奇妙了!尽管我们损失惨重,但这样的时刻重新点燃了我们对未来的希望。
whatever引导让步状语从句
省略that定语从句,修饰all。
as“正如,正像”引导的定语从句,其先行词为后面we...safe.
all lying...and looking...是remember sb. doing句型中带逻辑主语的动名词短语。
even though/if 引导的让步状语从句,意思是“即使,尽管”
Stars after the storm 风暴过后现繁星
Para. 4
Although it was only a few days before we were rescued, it felt like months. We were taken to another town in a faraway county. Thankfully, Smartie came home just in time. We were so happy to take him with us, although then, none of us knew that we wouldn’t be back for quite a while.
although引导让步状语从句
although引导让步状语从句
before引导时间状语从句
虽然几天后我们就获救了,但却觉得像是过了好几个月。我们被带到一个很远的县的一座小镇上。万幸的是,斯玛蒂及时回了家。我们都很高兴能带上它,不过那时我们都没料到这一去就很久都回不来。
that引导宾语从句,作know的宾语。
Stars after the storm 风暴过后现繁星
Para. 5
Now, one year has passed and I’m back home in New Orleans. Some families have yet to return, but many others have come back. Although we are surrounded by reminders of the disaster, we are working together to rebuild our homes and our lives. Now we have another chance to look up at the stars of New Orleans, their beauty inspiring us and giving us confidence to move on.
独立主格结构“名词+现在分词”作伴随状语,their beauty是现在分词前的逻辑主语,与句子主语we不一致,故为独立主格。
although引导的让步状语从句
现在,事情已经过去了一年,我也重新回到了位于新奥尔良的家。有的人家仍然流落在外,但也有许多人已经回来了。虽然我们周围的一切都提醒着我们这里曾发生的灾难,但大家都在为重建家园和生活而一同努力着。现在我们又能仰望新奥尔良的星空了。星空的美鼓舞着我们,让我们有信心继续前行。

The seven stars of the Little Dipper belong to the constellation Ursa Minor, or the Little Bear. Some of them are rather dim and can only be seen without the influence of light pollution.
The Milky Way is the galaxy that contains our solar system. “Milky” describes its appearance seen from Earth -- a dim glowing band arching across the night sky, in which the naked eye cannot distinguish individual stars.

我们住在露天的环境里成了蚊子的一日三餐。不过妈妈说不管发生什么,我们都应该尽量看到事情好的一面。然而保持乐观却不那么容易。我们的家毁了,家里的一切也都没了,斯玛蒂也不见了。我们只剩下身上的衣服了。不过就像妈妈一直提醒我们的那样,好在全家人都在一起而且平安无事。妈妈的话让我们心情好些了。我还记得那时我们躺在午夜的苍穹之下,仰望星空。因为没有灯光,我们能看到北斗七星、小北斗七星和银河。太奇妙了!尽管我们损失惨重,但这样的时刻重新点燃了我们对未来的希望。
虽然几天后我们就获救了,但却觉得像是过了好几个月。我们被带到一个很远的县的一座小镇上。万幸的是,斯玛蒂及时回了家。我们都很高兴能带上它,不过那时我们都没料到这一去就很久都回不来。
现在,事情已经过去了一年,我也重新回到了位于新奥尔良的家。有的人家仍然流落在外,但也有许多人已经回来了。虽然我们周围的一切都提醒着我们这里曾发生的灾难,但大家都在为重建家园和生活而一同努力着。现在我们又能仰望新奥尔良的星空了。星空的美鼓舞着我们,让我们有信心继续前行。
