人教版八年级(下)Unit5语言要点与中考
1. against prep. 反对
Reasons against becoming a professional athlete (P38)不想成为职业运动员的理由
要点分析:介词against与for(赞成)相对,不能单独作谓语,须与动词be连用,后跟名词,代词或动词-ing形式。如:
Are you for it or against it 你对这件事是赞成还是反对?
No one is against the idea. 没有人反对这个主意。

2. if引导条件状语从句的用法
If you go to the party, you’ll have a great time. (P34) 如果你去参加聚会,你会玩得非常愉快。
要点分析:if常用来引导条件状语从句。if放在主句之前时,从句和主句常用逗号分开,if放在主句之后时无须分开。注意:在if引导的条件状语从句中表示将来,通常不用will或shall,而用一般现在时。如:
If you don’t go soon, you’ll be late. 如果你不快点去,你将会迟到。
We won’t go swimming if it rains tomorrow. 如果明天下雨我们将不去游泳。
2) You may easily lose your way in Shanghai____ you don’t have a map or a guide. (2011,浙江衢州)
A. until B. unless C. though D. if
3. in fact 事实上
In fact, many famous people complain that they are not happy. (P38)事实上,许多名人都抱怨他们不快乐。
要点分析:in fact为固定短语,常放在句首或句中。如:
In fact, many people have a shortcoming. 事实上,许多人有缺点。

4. never adv. 决不;从来没有
I’ll never do it. (P37) 我将永远也不会做那件事。
要点分析:never用作副词,意为“决不”;“永不”,放在实义动词前,助动词、情态动词或be的后面。如:
I’ll never forget your kindness. 我将永远也不会忘记你的和蔼。
还可以解作“从来没有”,多用于完成时。如:
—Have you ever been to America 你曾去过美国吗?
—No, I have never been abroad. 没有,我从未出过国。

5. bring v. 带来、拿来

Next time you came, bring me that book, please. 下次你来的时候,请把我的书带来。
take指从说话者所在地把某人或某物带去或拿到别处。如:
I want to take some books to the classroom. 我想带几本书到教室里去。
carry不说明带的方向,一般指随身携带,如“提、扛、背、运”等。如:

要点分析:let“让”,用作及物动词,后跟“宾语+不带to的动词不定式”复合宾语结构。如:
Don’t let the fire go out. 别让火灭了。
She doesn’t let her children play here. 她不让她的孩子们在这儿玩。

7. have a difficult time(in) doing something做某事很艰难
