8. as引导时间状语从句与make复合结构
As time went by, I was made smaller. 一年年过去，我被做得更小了。(教材P18)
【句式分析】
此句为主从复合句，其中as引导时间状语从句。主句中含有＂make+宾语+宾语补足语＂，即make的复合结构，此处用了make复合结构的被动形式，补足语为形容词比较级。
【语法重点】
1. as引导时间状语从句时表示＂随着……＂，侧重表示两个动作同时发生(包括一个主语同时进行两个动作)，或者一个动作随着另一个动作的变化而变化。
?As time went by, his theory proved to be true.=With time going by, his theory proved to be true.随着时间的推移，他的理论得到了证实。
【易混辨析】as/with
as
＂随着＂，是连词，引导时间状语从句
with
＂随着＂，是介词，后接名词、动名词或代词构成with短语或with复合结构
2. ＂make+宾语+宾语补足语＂结构的具体形式：
make用作使役动词表示 ＂使；使成为＂ 时，可跟复合结构，即＂make+宾语+宾语补足语＂，其中的宾语补足语可以是不带to的不定式、过去分词、形容词或名词。现将make的复合宾语结构小结如下：
(1)＂make＋宾语＋n.＂ 意为＂使、让某人 / 某物(成为)……＂。
?We made him captain of our football team. 我们推选他作我们足球队队长。
?We made him our monitor. 我们选他当班长。
(2)＂make＋宾语＋adj.＂ 意为 ＂使某人 / 某事(变得) ……＂。
?The news that our team had won made us very happy. 我们队赢了的消息使我们大家非常高兴。
?We must make the rivers clean. 我们必须净化河水。
【特别注意】
当宾语是不定式短语或从句时，多用it作形式宾语。
?I made it a condition that everybody must be on time. 我提出一个条件，人人都要准时。
?The heavy rain made it impossible for us to go out. 大雨使得我们无法出去。
(3)＂make＋宾语＋do sth.（不带to的不定式）＂意为 ＂使某人做某事＂。
?What makes the grass grow? 什么东西使得草生长？
?Our teacher makes us feel more confident. 老师使得我们感到更自信了。
【特别注意】
在被动语态中，此类结构中省略的动词不定式 to 要还原。
?The boy was made to work twelve hours a day. 这个男孩被迫每天干十二个小时的活。
?Every day I am made to have an egg and some milk. 我每天不得不吃一个鸡蛋，喝一些牛奶。
【拓展延伸】
have, make, let等使役动词和see, hear, listen to, look at, watch, notice, observe 等感官动词都可接不带to的不定式作宾补。help后可带to，也可不带to。
?Let him do whatever he wishes to do. 他想干什么就让他干吧。
?Did you see him go out? 你看见他出去了吗？
?I often help my mother (to) do some housework. 我经常帮助妈妈做些家务。
(4)＂make＋宾语＋v-ed（过去分词作宾补）＂这个结构指宾语接受后面的那个动作，表示被动的意思，意为 ＂使某人 / 某事被……＂。
?The strange noise made us frightened. 奇怪的声音使我们感到恐惧。
?The good news made us excited. 这个好消息使我们兴奋。
【特别注意】
通常情况下，make后的宾语是反身代词时，作宾补的动词要用过去分词，即：make oneself＋v-ed （heard, known, understood）。
?He couldn’t make himself heard above the noise of the traffic. 在交通嘈杂声中他无法使自己的声音提高到让别人听到。
但有时，根据句子意思也可用其他形式。
?The little child stood on the chair to make himself look taller. 那个小孩儿站在椅子上，使他看上去更高些。
?Rock singers, on the other hand, make music their life. 摇滚乐歌手，另一方面，把音乐当作他们的生命。
(5)＂make+宾语+V-ing（现在分词）＂这一结构表示的意思是＂使某人 / 某事一直在……＂。现在分词与宾语之间存在着逻辑上的主谓关系。
?He makes the boy standing all the time. 他让那个男孩一直站着。
【拓展延伸】
常接v-ing形式作宾语补足语的动词有：see, watch, hear, observe, notice, feel, find等感官动词和look at, listen to等短语动词以及have, keep, get, make等使役动词。
【特别注意】
现在分词作宾补和不带to的不定式作宾补的区别是：现在分词一般表示动作正在进行，而不带 to 的不定式则一般表示动作已经完成。
?I saw him putting his hand into his pocket. (动作正在进行)我看到他一直把手放进口袋里。
?I saw him put his hand into his pocket. (动作已经完成)我看到他把手放进口袋里了。

I. 阅读理解
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
The Internet brings us many advantages.
With the Internet, people can send and receive e-mails. On the Internet, people can skim over news. Using the Telnet, the user anywhere on the Internet can log into any other machine on which he has an account. It is possible to use the FTP program to copy files from one machine on the Internet to another. But the Internet also brings us troubles.
Internet use seems to cause a fall in psychological(心理的) health, according to research at Carnegie Mellon University. Even people who spent just a few hours a week on the Internet experienced more depression and loneliness than those who logged on less often, the two-year study showed. And it wasn’t that people who were already feeling bad spent more time on the Internet, but that using the Net actually seemed to cause the bad feelings.
Researchers are puzzled over the results, which were completely opposite to what they had expected. They expected that the Net would prove socially healthier than television, since the Net allows users to choose their information and to communicate with others.
The fact that Internet use reduces time used for family and friends may be the reason for the drop in health, researchers said. Faceless, bodiless ＂virtual＂ (虚拟的) communication may be less psychologically satisfying than actual conversations, and the relationships formed through it may not be so deep. Another possibility is that exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
＂But it’s important to remember this is not about the technology; it’s about how it is used,＂said one of the researchers. ＂It really points to the need for considering social factors (因素) when you design new inventions.＂
1. The writer mainly wants to tell us that ___________.
A. the Internet can bring people many advantages
B. the Internet use may cause psychological problems
C. the Internet users are not satisfied with their lives
D. we shouldn’t use the Internet
2. Why are the researchers puzzled over the results?
A. Because the results were completely different from what they had thought.
B. Because the Net proved socially healthier than television.
C. Because the Internet users were all healthier.
D. Because the Internet users experienced less depression and loneliness.
3. What may be the reasons why the Internet use causes a fall in psychological health?
A. Internet use reduces time used for family and friends.
B. Virtual communication is less psychologically satisfying than actual conversations.
C. Exposure to the wider world through the Net makes users less satisfied with their lives.
D. All of the above.
4. According to the passage, which of the following is TRUE?
A. Users anywhere on the Internet can log into any other machine.
B. The two-year study showed that using the Net seemed to cause the bad feelings.
C. People who are already feeling bad spend much more time on the Internet.

1. resting 考查非谓语动词。固定短语：spend time doing sth花费时间做某事。
2. a 考查冠词。model是可数名词，前面没有限定词，而此处泛指 ＂一个＂，故填a。
3. was told / has been told 考查动词的时态和语态。根据语境可判断出谓语动词应该用一般过去时或现在完成时的被动形式，又因主语Sarah是第三人称单数，故填was told / has been told。
4. who 考查定语从句。非限制性定语从句中缺少主语，且先行词为Sarah，指人，要用who。
5. to prove 考查非谓语动词。want to do sth.想要做某事。
6. education 考查词形转换。形容词性物主代词后面应该接名词形式。
