Lesson 7 Too late
为时太晚
The plane was late and detectives were waiting at the airport all morning. They were expecting a valuable parcel of diamonds from South Africa. A few hours earlier, someone had told the police that thieves would try to steal the diamonds. When the plane arrived, some of the detectives were waiting inside the main building while others were waiting on the airfield. Two men took the parcel off the plane and carried it into the Customs House. While two detectives were keeping guard at the door, two others opened the parcel. To their surprise, the precious parcel was full of stones and sand!

Grammar Focus
?Past progressive tense（过去进行时）
?Basic Pattern:
S + was / were doing（动词的现在分词）
(1) 主要表示过去某个时刻或某段时间正在进行的动作。过去进行时和一般过去时经常同在一个句子里使用。过去进行时表示过去正在进行的动作或情况，一般过去时则表示比较短暂的动作或事件。正在进行中的动作或情况往往由连词when, while, as, just as等引导：
e.g.
我扫地的时候，发现了你的钢笔。
While/When/As I was sweeping the floor, I found your pen.
while通常只引导持续时间较长的动作，并且主句和从句可以同时用过去进行时，而when 和as一般不这么用：
e.g. 当他的妻子和一位邻居在电话中聊天时，约翰一直在看电视。
John was watching TV while his wife was talking with a neighbour over the phone.
有些学生在唱歌跳舞，而另一些则在吃喝。
Some students were dancing and singing while others were eating and drinking.
我正开前门的时候，电话铃响了。
Just as I was opening the front door, the telephone rang.
你进来的时候我正要出门。Just as I was leaving the house, you came in.
when也可以引导比较短暂的动作，while和as 则一般不行：
我们正在吃晚饭时灯灭了。
We were having supper when the lights went out.
(go out v. 1. (火或灯光)熄灭2. (新闻或消息)发布，公布，发表3. (广播或电视节目)播放，播出4. 送出，发出；派出5. 退潮；落潮)
(2) 过去进行时往往与表示一段时间的状语连用，如all morning, all night, all day, all evening, the whole week等，表示这段时间一直在干什么：
e.g. 你整个晚上都干什么了？我到处都找不着你。
What were you doing all evening? I couldn’t find you anywhere.
我去看望玛丽了。I was visiting Mary.
整整两天他们一直在为晚会进行准备。
They were preparing for the party for two whole days.
Review
2.短语动词中的小品词(The particles)
注：particles ['pɑ:tikl] 名词n. [C]1. 微粒;颗粒[(+of)]e.g. 灰尘particles of dust
2. 极小量[(+of)]他的报告没有一点真实性。There is not a particle of truth in his report.
3. (物)粒子,质点
4. 【语法】(与动词构成短语动词的副词或介词) 小品词
在上一课的语法中已经提到，许多动词加上介词或副词后就会改变词义。这些介词和副词通常被称为小品词。它们没有词形变化。有些小品词既可以作介词又可以作副词。判断一个小品词是副词还是介词要看小品词有没有带宾语。有宾语的是介词，没有宾语的是副词。介词的位置相对固定些：
e.g. 我在找蒂姆。(for 为介词，位置不能变动) I am looking for Tim.
她照顾那孩子。(after为介词) She looked after the baby.
他灭了火。(out为副词)
He put out the fire. ------He put the fire/it out.

Mother woke up the children -------Mother woke the children/them up.
她把画取了下来。(down为副词)
She took down the picture. ------She took the picture/it down.

Please turn off the radio. --------Please turn the radio/it off.

During a bullfight, a drunk suddenly wandered into the middle of the ring. The crowd began to shout, but the drunk was unaware2 of the danger. The bull1 was busy with the matador3 at the time, but it suddenly caught sight of the drunk who was shouting rude remarks and waving a red cap. Apparently4 sensitive to criticism, the bull forgot all about the matador and charged at the drunk. The crowd suddenly grew quiet. The drunk, however, seemed quite sure of himself. When the bull got close to him, he clumsily stepped aside to let it pass. The crowd broke into cheers and the drunk bowed. By this time, however, three men had come into the ring and they quickly dragged the drunk to safety. Even the bull seemed to feel sorry for him, for it looked on sympathetically until the drunk was out of the way before once more turning its attention to the matador. New words and expressions 生词和短语 bullfight n. 斗牛 drunk n. 醉汉 wander v. 溜达，乱走 ring n. 圆形竞技场地

Lesson 70 Red for danger 危险的红色 【Text 】During a bullfight, a drunk suddenly wandered into the middle of the ring. The crowd began to shout, but the drunk was unaware of the danger. The bull was busy with the matador at the time, but it suddenly caught sight of the drunk who was shouting rude remarks and waving a red cap. Apparently sensitive to criticism, the bull forgot all about the matador and charged at the drunk. The crowd suddenly grew quiet. The drunk, however, seemed quite sure of himself.When the bull got close to him, he clumsily stepped aside to let it pass. The crowd broke into cheers and the drunk bowed. By this time, however, three men had come into the ring and they quickly dragged the drunk to safety. Even the bull seemed to feel sorry for him, for it looked on sympathetically until the drunk was out of the way before once more turning its attention to the matador. 【课文翻译】 在一次斗牛时，一个醉汉突然溜达到斗牛场中间，人们开始大叫起来，但醉汉却没有意识到危险。当时那公牛正忙于对付斗牛士，但突然它看见了醉汉，只见他正大声说着粗鲁的话，手里挥动着一顶红帽子。对挑衅显 然非常敏感的公牛完全撇开斗牛士，直奔醉汉而来。观众突然静了下来，可这醉汉像是很有把握似的。当公牛逼近他时，他踉跄地住旁边一闪，牛扑空了。观众欢呼起来，醉汉向人们鞠躬致谢。然而，此时已有 3个人 进入斗牛场，迅速把醉汉拉到安全的地方。好像连牛也在为他感到遗憾，因为它一直同情地看着醉汉，直到他的背影消逝，才重新将注意力转向斗牛士。 New words and expressions 生词和短语 【生词讲解】 1.bullfight n. 斗牛（活动） bull n. 公牛 cow n. 母牛，奶牛 ox 大公牛(oxen, pl. ) calf 小牛 bull market 牛市（股市行情很好） bear market 熊市（股市行情不好） bully n. 恃强凌弱的人bullfight n. 斗牛drunk n. 醉汉wander v. 溜达，乱走ring n. 圆形竞技场地unaware adj. 不知道的，未觉察的bull n. 公牛matador n. 斗牛士 remark n. 评论；言语 apparently adv. 明显地 sensitive adj. 敏感的 criticism n. 批评 criticism n. 批评 charge v. 冲上去 clumsily adv. 笨拙地 bow v. 鞠躬 safety n. 安全地带 sympathetically adv. 同情地
Lesson 80 The Crystal Palace 【Text】 Perhaps the most extraordinary building of the nineteeth century was the Crystal Palace, which was built in Hyde Park for the Great Exhibition of 1851. The Crystal Palace was different from all other buildings in the world, for it was made of iron and glass. It was one of the biggest buildings of all time and a lot of people from many countries came to see it. A great many goods were sent to the exhibition from various parts of the world. There was also a great deal of machinery on display. The most wonderful piece of machinery on show was Nasmyth's steam hammer. Though in those days, traveling was not as easy as it is today, steam boats carried thousands of visitors across the Channel from Europe. On arriving in England, they were taken to the Crystal Palace by train. There were six million visitors in all, and the profits from the exhibition were used to build museums and colleges. Later, the Crystal Palace was moved to South London. It remained one of the most famous buildings in the world until it was burnt down in 1936. 【课文翻译】 19世纪最不寻常的建筑也许要数水晶宫了，它是为1851年的“世界博览会”而建在海德公园的。这座水晶宫不同于世界上所有的其他建筑，因为它是用钢和玻璃建成的。它是有史以来最高大的建筑物之一，因此，人们从各个国家纷纷前来参观。大量的商品从世界各地运送到了博览会，参展的还有很多机器，其中最奇妙的是内史密斯的蒸汽锤。尽管在当时旅行不像现在这么容易，但汽船还是把成千上万的参观者从欧洲大陆送过了英吉利海峡。一到英国，火车就把他们送到了水晶宫。参观的人数总共是600万。博览会的赢利用来建造博物馆和高等学校。后来，“水晶宫”被移到了伦敦南部。在1936年被焚毁之前，它一直是世界上最著名的建筑物之一。 New words and expressions 生词和短语 1. palace 1) n 宫殿 the Summy Palace 颐和园 Buckingham Palace 白金汉宫 2) n (尤其指欧洲大陆）华丽的大厦 eg: The nobles of Florence built splendid palaces.

新概念英语第二册课后题答案详解：Lesson63 新概念英语第二册课后习题Lesson 63 1. d 根据课文第2行Everybody admires him for his great sense of humour 能够判断只有d. he is an amusing person (他是一个有 趣的人)是他深受大家欢迎的原因。其他3个选择都与课文内容不符。 所以选d. 2. b 根据课文第8-11行，只有b. everyone had been laughing at Jeremy's stories, not at Jeremy 是课文所暗示的情况，珍妮没有意识到“每个人都在笑他父亲讲 的故事，而不是在嘲笑他父亲本人”。其他3个选择都不符合逻辑， 所以选b. 3. a 只有a. he's got 符合题目意思。 he's got = he has got = he has ，所以选a. 其他3个选择都不符合题目意思和语法。 has got = has 表示“有”的意思。 4. a b. Apart (adv. 分开，离开);d. Unless (conj. 除非，如果不) 这两个选择词性和词意思都与这个句子不符， a. 和 c. 都有with the exception of (除……外)的意思，但except 不能单独用于句首，所以只能选a. 5. b
表示喜欢或喜爱做某事应该用一般现在时，或一般过去时，而不 应用实行时态度，所以该句只能选b. loves . 其他3个选择 a. is loving, c. has been loving, d. was loving 时态都不对。 6. d 该句的动词succeeded(成功)后面只能跟介词in加动名词表示 “成功做某事”。a. to make, b. for making, c. in make都不合乎语法。只有d. in making合乎语法，所以选d. 7. d 该句需要选出同前一句中的 a little (有点儿，有些)意义相同 的词，才能使两个句子的意思相同。a. little (没有多少)，b. somehow (不知怎么地，以某种方式);c. enough (充足) 和d. somewhat (一点，几分)4个选择中，只有 d. 与 a little 意思相同，所以选d. 8. a a. think highly of (看得起，高看); b. laugh at (嘲笑); c. estimate (评定，估计); d. esteem (尊敬，尊重)中只有a. 同前一句中的admire (赞美)含义相近，所以选a. 9. c a. lastly(最后)， b. at last(最后，最终)， c. lately(最近)， d. at least(至少)4个词中只有c.同前一句的recently (最近)意义相同，所以选c. 10. d 该句需要选出同前一句中的reception(招待会)含义相同的词才能使两个句子意义相同。
新概念英语第二册：Lesson80 课文注释【篇一】 which was built in Hyde Park… 这是一个非限定性关系从句，修饰逗号前的 the Crystal Palace。 这个从句如果去掉并不影响主句的意思。 【篇二】 It was one of the biggest buildings of all time…它是有史 以来大的建筑物之一…… of all time表示“有史以来”、“空前的”，常与形容词的级连用，表示范围： He is one of the greatest men of all time. 他是有史以来最伟大的人物之一。 one of+级+复数名词结构的语气比直接用形容词级+名词结构要缓 和些，不那么绝对。试比较： Yesterday was the hottest day of the year. 昨天是今年最热的一天。(语气非常肯定) Yesterday was one of the hottest days of the year. 昨夭是今年最热的日子之一。(语气缓和些) 【篇三】 There was also a great deal of machinery on display. 参展 的还有很多机器。
(1)machinery为“机器”、“机械装置”的总称，是集合名词，要与单数动词搭配。某个具体的机器可用 machine或者 a piece of machinery来表示： This is a wonderful piece of machinery/a wonderful machine. 这是一台奇妙的机器。 There is a lot of new machinery/There are many new machines in our factory. 我们厂里有很多新机器。 (2)on display与下面一句话中的 on show同义，都表示“陈列着”、“展示着”，在句子中能够作状语、定语或表语等： At the Great Exhibition, a great many goods were on display/show. 世界博览会上展出了大量的商品。(表语) This is the best dress on display/show. 这是展出的的衣服。(定语) Shall we put all these flowers on display/show? 我们要把所有这些花都陈列出来吗?(宾语补足语) 【篇四】 There were six million visitors in all…参观的人数总共是600 万…… in all为固定短语，其含义之一为“总共”、“合计”： I paid him ￡ 200 in all.
