Unit 6 When was it invented
深 度 学 习
课本原句：It is said that a Chinese ruler called Shen Nong first discovered tea as a drink.
句型It is said that...意为“据说......”，可以转换成另外两种表达方式：(1) People say that...(2)... be said to do sth.常见的有此种用法的还包括：It is believed / reported / known / suggested / supposed that...，意为分别为“人们相信”、“据报道”、“众所周知的是”、“人们建议”、“据推测”。其实，此句型是主语从句，it是形式主语，真正的主语是that从句。所以此句型可以归纳到以前学过的下面的句型结构中：It is +adj. / n. / done + that从句
e.g. It is said that Tom has a big company.
= People say that Tom has a big company.
= Tom is said to have a big company.
It is believed that the first basketball game in history was played on December21, 1891.
It was decided that we should start the project next week.
It well-known that China is an old country with a 5000-year history.
It is our duty that we should tidy the classroom before we leave school.
课文原句：The tea trade from China to Western countries took place in the 19the century.
take place，意为“发生；举行”，没有被动语态形式。以下4种情况，根据英文思维和表达习惯，要用主动形式表示被动含义：
不及物动词和短语动词没有被动形式，受中文思维影响，以下动词常常出错：happen, take place, rise, belong to, run out, come true, come up(提出，想出), lie， come out(出版), go out(熄灭)
e.g. A great idea came up at the meeting. His latest movie is coming out soon.
Great changes have taken place in the last 40 years. Time has run out.
某些系动词后加形容词表示被动含义，如look, smell, feel, sound, taste, prove(证明)
e.g. Good medicine tastes bitter. The flower smells sweet.
The plan proved practical.
need, want（需要）, require（需要）, be worth后面跟doing，表示被动含义。
e.g. My house needs / wants / requires repairing and painting.
The book is well worth reading twice.
某些动词如sell / wash / write / read等等，表示主语的内在特征、性质或所处状态时，常常与副词连用，而不是强调动作本身，也用主动语态。
e.g. The book sells well. The pen writes well.
The clothes wash easily. Your article reads smoothly.
课文原句：Today, the popularity of basketball has risen around the world, with many young people dreaming of becoming famous players.
结构“with +宾语+宾补”，在八年级学过。其中，with的宾语常常是名词或代词，宾补有六种情况。次结构在句中，作状语，表示与谓语动词的关系，如伴随、原因、结果等。
with + n. / pron. + adj
e.g. It is strange that the general sleeps with his eyes open. She stood up, with her face red.
with + n. / pron. + 介词短语
e.g. The teacher came in with a book in his hand.
with + n. / pron. + doing，其中doing是n./pron.发出的，是主动关系，且动作正在发生，即与谓语动词同时发生。课文原句就是这种情况。
e.g. I found it difficult to fall asleep with a heavy rainstorm happening outside.
I ended the class with all the students singing an English song.
with + n. / pron. + done，其中done和n./pron.是被动关系，且动作已经发生过，即发生在谓语动词前。
e.g. The criminal ran away with his hands still tied.
(5) with + n. / pron. + to do，其中to do发生在谓语动词后，即将要发生。
e.g. With so many things to deal with, we put off the trip.
(6). with + n. / pron. + 小副词，常见的小副词是on, off, over等
e.g. With the meal over, we all went home. I can’t sleep with the light on.
He was standing there with nothing on when I found him.
课文原句：How old do you think I am
do you think/suppose后跟特殊疑问词引导的宾语从句时，放在特殊疑问词后，语序不同于汉语，可以把do you think/ suppose理解成插入语。 请比较：
e.g. Do you know who is the right person for the job
Who do you think is the right person for the job
课文原句：— Can you help me think of an invitation — Withe pleasure.
with pleasure意为“我很乐意”，相当于I’m glad to或No problem，表示“很高兴帮助某人”的含义。而my pleasure是It’s my pleasure的省略，意思是“不用谢”，用来回答thank you.
表示“不用谢”
My pleasure / You’re welcome / That’s OK/ That’s all right / Not at all / Don’t mention it.
表示“没关系”
It doesn’t matter / Never mind / That’s OK / That’s all right / Not at all.
常见的一些口语短句：
It’s my treat.我请客。 Not yet!还没呢！ So what 所以呢？哪有怎么样呢？
Like what 比如说呢？ Guess what 才什么来着？ Got it! 收到。明白了。
Why not 为什么不呢？ I didn’t mean it.我不是故意的。 Better not.最好不要吧。
No wonder.难怪喔！ Go ahead.去做吧！ Believe it or not.信不信由你。
How come 怎么会呢？ It couldn’t be better.再好不过了。 What for 为什么呢？
课文原句：This is because sometimes a few people may invent things which are nearly the same.
此句中，系动词is后是一个句子，称为表语从句。如果表语从句是一个陈述句，用that引导，且不能省略；如果表语从句是一个一般疑问句，用whether引导，不能换成if。
e.g. My idea is that we should begin our work right now.
The question is whether we can finish the job on time.
That is why books or websites usually mention more than one inventor.
The reason why she is ill is that she ate bad meat.
It was exactly what I needed.
课文原句：Some people doubt whether the inventor came up with the idea himself or herself.
doubt可以做动词和名词。做动词时，后跟从句时，如果是肯定句，用whether引导；如果是否定句时，用that引导。这一点，跟sure相反。
e.g. I doubt if the new one will be any better. I never doubted that she would come.
I'm not sure if I’m pronouncing this word correctly. Are you sure that he will come

三、阅读理解（10分）
Dear editor,
I am writing to ask what has happened to our young people. They are not as polite or hard-working as my generation (一代人). I will give you two examples.
Last Friday, I got on the underground at 9:15 a.m. It was very crowded so there was no free seat. There were some boys sitting on the seats near me. I didn't know why they were not at school. They were talking and laughing loudly. It was difficult for me to read my newspaper with all the noise. At the next stop, a pregnant (怀孕的) woman and her daughter got on with lots of shopping bags. I expected the boys to let them sit down. They saw the woman but they did nothing. I had to ask them to give the woman and her daughter seats. They did so but gave me a rude look. I got off at the next stop and was glad that the teenagers didn’t follow me.
Last Saturday, I had dinner with my friend's family. I was glad to see his children, who I hadn't seen for ten years. During the dinner, I started talking about world politics with the children. It soon became clear that they didn't know much about it. They couldn't tell me the name of the King of Spain or President of Italy. All they knew about was the Internet or which singers were the most beautiful. In my days, students knew the kings, the queens and the presidents of every country in Europe.
I worry about the future of Germany. How could these young people become good workers and parents They sit around Mcdonald's after school instead of going to the library as I did at their age. Maybe they have too much money. Perhaps some readers can give us some ideas about what to do with this "lost generation".
Yours sincerely,
Frantz Vogts
( ) 36. Mr Vogts writes this letter to the editor to ______.
A. show how rude the teenagers are B. complain about young people's act

A. knew he wouldn't get a seat B. didn't know why they were not at school

( ) 38. Mr Vogts was disappointed at the dinner because ______.
A. The children didn't like him B. the children knew much about the Internet
C. his friend knew little about world politics D. the children knew little about world politics
( ) 39. By saying "lost generation", Mr Vogts refers to ______.
A. today's workers B. the people at his age
