Step 1 品教材课文 Step 2 析写作手法
THE TIME MACHINE (Adapted) It was at ten o’clock today that the first of all Time Machines began its career.I gave it a last check, and sat myself in the leather seat. I pushed the starting lever on the main panel forwards an inch then immediately backwards again.Looking around, I saw my laboratory exactly as before.Had anything happened? I thought my mind had tricked me.Then I saw the clock.A moment before, it was a minute or so past ten; now it was nearly half past three! I drew a breath, gripped the lever and pushed it forwards.The laboratory went hazy around me.My niece came in to fetch something, maybe her handkerchief, apparently without seeing me.It probably took her a minute, but to me she moved like a rocket! I pushed the lever further.[1]Night came as if a lamp was being turned out, and in another moment came the day.Tomorrow night came, then skipped to day, again and again, faster and faster still. 学语言: 1.第一段中的It was at ten o’clock today that ...为强调句,强调时间状语。Looking around为动词-ing短语作状语。 2.第二段倒数第二句中的as if引导方式状语从句;第三段第四句中的as if引导表语从句。 3.第四段第一句中a strong urge的使用描述了作者的迫切心情。第二句中had thought about的使用表达出作者的心理活动。
续表
Step 1 品教材课文 Step 2 析写作手法
[1]这是一个and连接的并列句。第一个分句中含有as if引导的方式状语从句;第二个分句中介词短语in another moment置于句首,使用了完全倒装。 It is hard to explain the strange and unpleasant feeling of time travelling.It felt like I was being driven fast on a winding road.As my pace grew faster, the walls of the laboratory fell away, and I was left in the open air.The sun and moon looked as if they were being thrown across the sky, but soon there was division between night and day.Around me I saw trees growing like puffs of smoke; they grew, spread, and died in moments.I saw huge buildings rise up, then disappear like in a dream.The whole surface of the earth was being changed, melting and flowing before my eyes.I calculated that I was being pushed through time at hundreds of years a minute. [2]I had a strong urge to look at the random things that were being flashed before my eyes!I had thought about the risk of stopping the Time Machine many times.So long as I travelled at maximum speed, it didn’t matter.But if I stopped and the same space was being occupied by something else, we would be forced together and explode like a bomb! Like an impatient fool, I pulled the lever backwards hard.With a sudden jolt, the Time Machine was flipped on its side, and I was thrown through the air. [2]这是一个主从复合句。that引导定语从句,修饰先行词things。 I was stunned for a moment, and then heard the sound of thunder.I was sitting in the rain in some mud next to the machine.“A fine welcome,” I said,“for a man who has travelled thousands of years to be here!” 4.第五段中A fine welcome的使用使结尾显得简练生动、恰到好处。 学结构: 1.课文由五部分组成: 第一段:讲述“我”第一次尝试启动时间机器; 第二段:介绍时间机器的正式启动; 第三段:介绍“我”乘坐时间机器的感觉; 第四段:介绍“我”在停止时间机器前的心理活动; 第五段:介绍“我”停止了时间机器的运行,结果跨越千年,到达未来。 2.文章按照时间顺序详细描述了作者时间旅行的经历。在表达中使用了then、now、but、and等过渡词,使文章表达条理清晰。 3.语篇在选材和叙述手法上深入浅出,注重激发读者的情感共鸣。
【参考译文】
时间机器(改编版)
上午十点,所有时间机器中的第一台启动了其运转之旅。我最后检查了一遍机器,然后坐在皮椅上。我把主面板上的启动杆往前推了一英寸,然后又立刻向后拉。环顾四周,我看到实验室与以前一模一样。发生什么事了吗?我以为我的大脑欺骗了我。然后我看了下时钟。片刻之前,大概是十点零一分,而现在已经快三点半了!
我吸了一口气,一把抓住操纵杆,往前推了一下。实验室在我身边变得模糊不清。我的侄女进来拿东西,也许是拿她的手帕,但她显然没看见我。她大约花了一分钟时间,但在我看来,她的动作快如火箭!我把操纵杆再往前推了一下。夜幕降临了,仿佛一盏灯正在熄灭,转眼间,白昼就来临了。第二天夜晚降临,接着又跃进到白天。如此反复,越来越快。
时间旅行带来的陌生感和不适感是难以解释的。我感到我好像坐在一部汽车里,飞驰在蜿蜒的道路上。我的速度越来越快,实验室的墙壁随之坍塌,我置身野外。太阳和月亮看起来似乎正被抛向天空,但是很快就有了昼夜之分。环顾四周,我看到树木似青烟升起,不断生长,变得枝繁叶茂,片刻之后枯亡。我看到大楼拔地而起,继而消逝,犹如梦中。地球的整个表面都在变化,在我的眼前熔化、流动。我估算我一分钟要穿越数百年的时间。
我有一种强烈的欲望,想看看眼前那些随机闪现的东西!我已多次考虑过停下时间机器的风险。只要我以最高的速度前进,就不会有什么问题。但是,如果我停下来,同一空间被别的东西占据,我们就会被挤在一起,然后像炸弹一样爆炸!我就像一个失去耐心的傻瓜,使劲向后拉了下操纵杆。突然一震,时间机器侧翻了,我被抛向了空中。
我一时惊呆了,然后听到雷声。我坐在雨中的一堆烂泥上,时间机器躺在一旁。“对一个穿越了数千年才来到这里的人来说,这欢迎真是别开生面!”我说道。

SATISFACTION① GUARANTEED (Adapted)
[1]Larry Belmont worked for a company that made robots.Recently it had begun experimenting with a household② robot.It was going to be tested out ③by Larry’s wife, Claire.
[2]Claire didn’t want the robot in her house, especially as her husband would be away on a business trip④ for three weeks, but Larry persuaded her that the robot wouldn’t harm her or allow her to be harmed.It would be a bonus⑤.However, when she first saw the robot, she felt alarmed⑥.His name was Tony.He seemed more like⑦ a human than a machine.He was tall and handsome with smooth hair and a deep voice, [3]although his facial expression never changed.
[1]that引导定语从句,修饰先行词a company。
[2]as引导时间状语从句。
[3]although引导让步状语从句。
On the second morning,Tony brought her breakfast and then asked her whether she needed help dressing.She felt embarrassed⑧ and quickly told him to go.[4]Now she was being looked after by a robot that looked so human, and it was disturbing⑨.
One day, Claire mentioned that she didn’t think she was clever.Tony said that she must feel very unhappy to say that.Claire thought it was ridiculous⑩ that she was being offered sympathy by a robot, but she gradually admired his wisdom and integrity and began to trust him. He always treated her with dignity . [5]She told him how she was unhappy that her home wasn’t elegant enough for Larry, who wanted to improve his social position with a bigger salary . She wasn’t like Gladys Claffern, one of the richest and most powerful women around.
As a favour , Tony promised to help Claire make herself more beautiful and her home more elegant.So Claire borrowed some library books for him to read, or rather , scan .[6]She looked at his fingers with wonder as they turned each page.How absurd , she thought.He was just a machine.

[5]how引导宾语从句,作told的直接宾语;who引导非限制性定语从句,修饰先行词Larry。

Tony gave Claire a new hairstyle and improved her makeup .As he was not allowed to accompany her to the shops, he wrote out a list of things that he would need for his work on the house.Claire went downtown and bought these things.She had an appointment to paint her nails , then she went into an expensive clothes shop.The saleswoman there was rude to her, so she rang Tony and told him she was being treated badly.He spoke to the woman,who immediately changed her attitude.Claire thanked Tony, [7]telling him that he was a “dear”.[8]As she turned around , there stood Gladys Claffern.How awful to be discovered by her, Claire thought.By the look on her face, Claire knew that Gladys thought they were in a relationship .After all, she knew Claire’s husband’s name was Larry, not Tony.Although it was completely innocent , Claire felt guilty .

包你满意(改编版)
拉里·贝尔蒙特在一家机器人制造公司工作。该公司最近开始试验家用机器人。机器人将由拉里的妻子克莱尔进行试用。
克莱尔并不想家里有个机器人,尤其是在她丈夫要出差三周的时候,但是拉里劝她说机器人不会伤害她,也不会让她受到伤害。还会是个意外收获。然而,第一次看到机器人时,克莱尔还是有点惊慌。这个机器人名叫托尼,看着不太像机器,而更像一个真人。托尼高大英俊,头发顺滑,嗓音低沉,不过他的面部表情始终不变。
第二天早晨,托尼给克莱尔端来了早餐,还问她是否需要帮忙穿衣打扮。克莱尔感到非常尴尬,立刻让托尼走开。现在,她正由一个看起来这么像人类的机器人照料着,这很令人不安。
有一天,克莱尔说她觉得自己并不聪明。托尼说她肯定是感到很不开心才会这么说。克莱尔觉得一个机器人对她表示同情十分荒谬,但她逐渐欣赏托尼的智慧和正直,并且开始信任他。托尼对她彬彬有礼。克莱尔告诉托尼自己多么的不开心,因为拉里觉得家里不够雅致;拉里想通过涨工资来提高自己的社会地位。克莱尔与格拉迪丝·克拉芬不同,后者是当地最有钱有势的女性之一。
作为一项恩惠,托尼答应帮助克莱尔,把她变得更漂亮些,也把她的家变得更雅致些。于是,克莱尔从图书馆借来了一些书让托尼阅读,应该说是让他扫视。她惊奇地看着托尼的手指翻动书页的样子,心想这太荒唐了。他只不过是一台机器罢了。
托尼给克莱尔做了一个新发型,还改善了她的妆容。但是,由于托尼被禁止陪同克莱尔去商店,所以他开具了一张装修房子所需材料的清单。克莱尔去市中心购买了这些东西。她按预约去美甲后,走进了一家高档时装店。女店员对她很粗鲁,于是她打电话给托尼,告诉他说自己受到了不礼貌的对待。托尼同店员交谈之后,店员立刻改变了态度。克莱尔向托尼道谢,称托尼为“亲爱的”。当她转过身来,却看到格拉迪丝·克拉芬正站在那里。被她发现了,这多么难堪啊,克莱尔心想。从她脸上的表情判断,克莱尔知道格拉迪丝认为自己出轨了。毕竟她知道克莱尔丈夫的名字是拉里,而不是托尼。虽然完全无辜,克莱尔还是感到内疚。
到家后,克莱尔啜泣不止。格拉迪丝是她竭力模仿的对象。托尼对克莱尔说,她这样想有点敏感,其实她像格拉迪丝一样好。托尼还建议在他离开,也就是拉里回家的前一天晚上,克莱尔邀请格拉迪丝和她的朋友们到家里来。到那个时候,托尼预计这栋正在彻底改造的房子将大功告成。
托尼的装修工作稳步进展。克莱尔试图帮忙安装天花板上的吊灯,但从梯子上摔了下来。尽管托尼当时在隔壁房间,但他还是及时接住了她。托尼抱着她的时候,她感受到了他身体的热度。她尖叫了一声,一把推开他,然后跑回了自己的房间。
聚会之夜到了。时钟敲响了八点整,客人们很快就要到了,克莱尔让托尼结束了当晚的工作,说当夜不再需要他了。就在那一瞬间,托尼将她揽入怀中,慢慢地贴近她的脸庞。克莱尔听着托尼宣布说他次日并不想离开她,而且他心里的愿望不只是让她开心而已。就在这时,前门的门铃响了。

M:There never seems to be enough of me to go around.I wish there could be another me.
W:What are you saying?
M:I read an article.It said scientists created a clone sheep.I had a dream last night about someone cloning me.And I could do so many things.One of me went to work.The other stayed at home to clean the house and even cook dinner.
W:It is strange to see you cooking dinner.
M:Very funny! But back to the science topic, it is amazing to see science advance so rapidly.
W:Now, they are studying how to copy human DNA.We may see two of you.
M:You are right.But realistically, I like having only one of me.We already have a problem with overpopulation.I don’t think we need to have two of everybody.
W:I must say, it all sounds interesting.I can’t imagine what they will think of next.

M:Hello.Is that Cathy?
W:Yes, speaking.
M:There is a really good film on at the cinema this week.Would you like to see it with me on Friday evening?
W:No.I’m afraid I can’t.I’m going to take part in a meeting at Peking University on Friday.
M:What a pity! How long will the meeting last?
W:It depends.I’d love to see a science fiction film.
M:I know you like it.Both of us like science fiction films since childhood.
W:I can never forget the first science fiction film we watched together.
M:Yes, Star Wars! It was so exciting! We could not fall asleep after the film although it lasted 2 hours until 11 o’clock. Well, what about Saturday then?
W:That would be great.What time does it start?
M:At 7:00 p.m.Would you like to go for a drink first?
W:Yes, fine.Is six o’clock OK? We can meet outside the cinema.
M:OK.

W:Hi, John! Where have you been?
M:I’ve just been to a football game.It was really exciting.It finished at 8:00 p.m.
W:Oh, do you always go on Saturdays?
M:Not really.The game usually starts at 6:00 p.m.When I finished work this afternoon, it was only 5 o’clock.So I thought I’d go and watch a game.
W:Oh, you must have had a great time.Do you still go swimming on Fridays?
M:No, I’ve changed to the day before Friday because there aren’t so many people then.
W:By the way, I didn’t see you at the park last Sunday afternoon.
M:Last Sunday? Yeah.I was staying with Liz.We always try to go for a long walk once a week, and Sunday is the only day when we’re both free.
W:What did you do after that?
M:We went dancing in the evening and had a great time.What about you?
W:I had a date with some of my friends.What do you do on Tuesdays?
M:Most Tuesdays I have to work late at the office, so there isn’t much time for anything afterwards.
W:Boy, you surely have a full week.
(Text 4)
M:Future homes will have some really smart cooking tools.Microwave ovens and refrigerators will probably be combined, so that meals can be ready upon one’s arrival home.
Future homes may also have refrigerators that can suggest menus based upon the food you have at home.In the home of the future, the refrigerator will probably also be able to take note of all food supplies in the home and inform you when you’re running out, or even be programmed to contact the local supermarket to drop off the needed food supplies.
Future homes will also be very energy-saving.Microsoft, Google and others are now working on applications to help you see and track which tools use the most electricity, helping you save electricity and thus your daily expenses.
There will most likely also be systems in place for saving and reusing wash water and bath water, which will probably have to be the main origin of future water, so that both plants and people can still have clean water in the future, when water supplies are low.

W:If we’re going to travel in Eastern Europe this summer, let’s be sure we go to Bulgaria.
M:Why Bulgaria?
W:Because it’s famous for rose products, especially rose soil.
M:Well, can’t we just buy the products online? We’re already planning to visit Greek island and Hungarian castles.
W:So? Let’s add Bulgarian rose fields to the list.I need to see them! I must smell them! I have already dreamed of being in the middle of a rose field.
M:Fine, honey.We’ll book a flight to the capital Sofia, and I’ll find out how to tour the rose fields.But if we go to that country, we need to spend some time at a beach holiday center in Varna on the Black Sea.The town is famous, and I want some of the special fish that’s only available during summer.

M:How was your trip back to your hometown?

M:That doesn’t make sense.It shouldn’t take that long to get to Lisbon from Beijing.
W:You’re right, but that is the cheapest flight I could get.I bought these tickets three months ago.
M:That’s too early! My brother says you should always buy your ticket 40 to 50 days before your flight leaves.
W:That might work normally, but not around our National Day.If you book too late, your ticket will be much more expensive.
M:So what did you do while you were there?
W:First, I visited some of my old relatives in the small villages, and we exchanged gifts.Then I spent several days in the city with my friends.The last few days I returned home to stay with my mom and dad.

3.Exploring the ocean is the key to increasing our understanding of the ocean, so we can more effectively manage, conserve, regulate, and use ocean resources that are vital to our economy and to all of our lives.Ocean exploration is about making discoveries, searching for things that are unusual and unexpected.Through ocean exploration, we collect data and information needed to address both current and emerging science and management needs.

Dear Editor,
Recently our class has had a discussion about whether sea exploration should be carried out.
Some of the students are in favour of sea exploration.They say sea exploration has made it possible for people to discover new medicines, as well as new sources of food and energy.Others are against it.In their opinion, although sea exploration might help improve our understanding of life on the earth, it might bring about marine pollution,which finally leads the ocean creatures to death.It might also cause ecosystem destruction.
Personally speaking,sea exploration should be balanced with economic needs.Hopefully, as technology improves, we may have more options for achieving this balance.
Yours,

The rain poured, beating against my face fiercely.Exhausted and shaking with cold, I prayed that someone would give me a ride.Thankfully, a car approached and stopped.I breathed a sigh of relief as the driver signaled me to get in the car.When I got in the car, a wave of relief and warmth swept over me, and I felt silent tears of gratitude rolling down my cheeks, mixing with the rain.Not only did the driver’s kindness warm my heart, but it also became a reminder to pay it forward.

M:What did you do after graduation?
W:I’d planned to be a teacher, but then I was offered a good job doing marketing, so I changed my mind.
M:Sounds like you’re happy with your decision.
W:I am.I enjoy my job very much.By the way, have you not had any job offers yet?
M:I had one, but I didn’t like the job very much.I’d also really wanted to attend graduate school, but I was afraid I couldn’t pay that much money.

W:Um, let’s see.It’s a newspaper office.They say the pay is really good.And oh, look! They give you a car to travel around.That’s not bad, is it?
M:Do they say anything about needing to have experience of a journalist?

W:When I was a little girl, I dreamed of being a great scientist, but now, as you can see, I’m just a common office clerk.

W:It’s only recently that I’ve been able to start settling down.How about you? Are you still with Jenny?
M:Yeah, Jenny and I got married right after graduation.It was hard for the first three years — I was supporting us both while she continued her studies — but now things are getting better.I work as a manager in a trade company and she’s working at a law firm.It’s all started to come together and we’re finally able to make a life for ourselves.
W:Oh, that sounds wonderful.I have always known you two would make it.I hope I can keep in better contact with you.

复习被动语态
①It was going to be tested out by Larry’s wife, Claire.
②Now she was being looked after by a robot that looked so human, and it was disturbing.
③As he was not allowed to accompany her to the shops ...
【我的发现】
以上句子中都使用了被动语态,句①为 的被动语态;句②为 的被动语态;句③为 的被动语态。
一、基本构成
项目 一般时态 进行时态 完成时态
现在 am/is/are done am/is/are being done has/havebeen done
过去 was/were done was/were being done had been done
将来 shall/will be done —— shall/will have been done
The children are asked to clean their rooms every day.
孩子们被要求每天打扫他们的房间。(一般现在时的被动语态)
The work will have been finished by the end of next month.
到下个月底这项工作将会被完成。(将来完成时的被动语态)
I feel that not enough is being done to protect the local wild animals.
我觉得对当地野生动物的保护力度不够。(现在进行时的被动语态)
I received the sad news that he had been killed in a motorcycle accident.
我得知了这个不幸的消息,说他在一场摩托车事故中丧生了。(过去完成时的被动语态)
【即时演练1】 用所给动词的适当形式填空
①(2023·新课标Ⅰ卷)When I (invite) to the stage to receive the award, I expressed my thanks to my teacher.
②It is calculated by dividing a person’s weight in kg by their height in meters squared, and a BMI of between 19 and 25 (consider) healthy.
③We must be aware of the fact that our beautiful environment (destroy) now.
④Over the past 20 years, many inspirational role models (honour) in Touching China awards.
⑤I have to go to work by taxi because my car (repair) at the garage.
二、使用被动语态应注意的几个问题
1.否定词not的位置:在第一个助动词或情态动词之后。
He was extremely disappointed to hear that he would not be given a doctor’s degree.
听到不会获得博士学位,他失望透顶。
2.主动句的谓语动词带有复合宾语时,应将宾语变成被动句的主语,而将宾语补足语保留不动,这时的宾语补足语变成了主语补足语。
We saw him sitting there without doing anything.
=He was seen sitting there without doing anything.
我们看见他坐在那儿,什么也没做。
His words made me throw up.
=I was made to throw up by his words.
他的话令我作呕。
名师点津
在主动语态中,make、 hear、 see等词后接动词不定式时要省略to,但在被动语态中不能省略。
3.带双宾语的动词作谓语的主动句转换为被动句时,可将表示物的直接宾语变为主语,用for或to引出表示人的间接宾语,或将表示人的间接宾语变为主语,直接宾语保留。
My father is telling me an interesting story now.
=An interesting story is being told to me by my father now.
=I’m being told an interesting story by my father now.
爸爸正在给我讲一个有趣的故事。
4.短语动词在主动结构中是不可分割的,在被动结构中也是如此,不可去掉动词后面的介词或副词。
The old man was often laughed at.
那位老人经常被嘲笑。
【即时演练2】 将下列句子改为被动语态
①We saw a stranger enter the building just now.
→
②My uncle gave me a present the other day.
→
→
③The bad weather made me decide to stay here for another day.
→
④My uncle took good care of me when I was young.
→
三、难点突破——主动形式表示被动意义
1.连系动词(如look、 sound、 smell、 feel、 taste、 remain、 seem、 hear、 appear、 prove等)后接表语时,一般用主动形式表示被动意义。
The food tastes delicious.
这种食物尝起来美味可口。
What he said at the meeting sounded encouraging.
他在会上说的话听起来令人倍受鼓舞。
2.当 wash、 write、 sell、 open、 close、 shut、 lock、 cook等不及物动词后加副词(easily、 well等)时,通常用主动形式表示被动意义。
This kind of cloth washes easily and lasts long.
这种布料容易洗,并且经久耐用。
The pen my father gave me as a birthday gift writes smoothly.
父亲作为生日礼物给我的钢笔写起来很流畅。
3.need、 want、 require、 deserve等后可以用动词-ing形式的主动形式表示被动意义。
His hair needs cutting.
→His hair needs to be cut.
他的头发需要剪了。
4.be worth doing 可转换为be worthy to be done,用主动形式表示被动意义。
The novel is worth reading again.
→The novel is worthy to be read again.
这部小说值得再读一次。
【即时演练3】 用所给动词的适当形式填空
①His books (sell) well, so they will be sold out soon.
②This cheese (not cut) easily.It’s too soft.
③These small trees need (take) good care of.
