Lesson 8 The best and the worst
最好的和最差的
Joe Sanders has the most beautiful garden in our town. Nearly everybody enters for 'The Nicest Garden Competition' each year, but Joe wins every time. Bill Frith's garden is larger than Joe's.
Bill works harder than Joe and grows more flowers and vegetables, but Joe's garden is more interesting. He has made neat paths and has built a wooden bridge over a pool. I like gardens too, but I do not like hard work. Every year I enter for the garden competition too, and I always win a little prize for the worst garden in the town!

乔.桑德斯拥有我们镇上最漂亮的花园。几乎每个人都参加每年举办的“最佳花园竞赛”，而每次都是乔获胜。比尔.弗里斯的花园比乔的花园大，他比乔也更为勤奋，种植的花卉和蔬菜也更多，但乔的花园更富有情趣。他修筑了一条条整洁的小路，并在一个池塘上架了一座小木桥。我也喜欢花园，但我却不愿意辛勤劳动。每年的花园竞赛我也参加，但总因是镇上最劣的花园而获得一个小奖！

(1) nearly和almost意义相似，表示“几乎”、“差不多”、“差点儿”的意思：
nearly adv. [ ?ni?li] almost; not quite; not completely几乎；差不多；将近
e.g. 我快准备好了。I’m nearly/almost ready.
我差点把他的名字忘了。I have nearly forgotten his name.
(forget : forgot[f??ɡ?t];forgotten[f??ɡ?tn])
他差点没赶上火车。He nearly missed the train.
她将近五十岁了。She is nearly fifty now.
IDM: not nearly much less than; not at all远非；绝不是
e.g. (1) 天气绝没有去年那么热。It’s not nearly as hot as last year.
(2) 现在根本没有足够的时间赶到那儿。There isn’t nearly enough time to get there now.
(2) each和every均可译为“每一个”，二者常常可以互相代替使用：
e.g. 每次我擦洗汽车，天总是下雨。Every/Each time I wash the car it rains.
但是each更强调个体。它常用以指一个确定的并通常是有限的数目：
e.g. 学校里的每个孩子都被询问过了。Each child in the school was questioned.
every却不那么强调个体，常用来指一个大的、不确定的数目：
e.g. 所有的/每个孩子都喜欢过圣诞节。Every child enjoys Christmas.
另外，each既可以作形容词又可以作代词，但every只能作形容词：
e.g. 他们每人都有一份。They each have a share.
我们每个人都有自己的工作要干。Each of us has his own work to do.
(share v. 1. ~(sth)(with sb.)共有；合用2. ~(sth)(with sb.)分享；共享n. [c] ~(of/in sth)(在若干人之间分得的) 一份2. [c]~(in sth)股份)
each/every
(1) each 用于单数名词前，后接单数动词。
e.g. 每个学生都得到一个自己的电子邮件地址。
Each student has been given his or her own e-mail address.
有时候his or her 听起来有点正式，故日渐普遍使用复数代词their
Each student has been given their own e-mail address.
(2) each用于复数主语后，谓语动词用复数。
e.g. 他们每个人都有自己的电子邮件地址。They each have their own e-mail address.
every后总是接单数动词。
e.g. 班上每个同学都应该能够通过这次考试。
Every student in the class is capable of passing the exam.
(3) each of、each one of与every one of后接复数名词或代词，但谓语动词通常用单数。
e.g. 每座房子都稍有不同。Each (one) of the houses was slightly different.
我买了一打鸡蛋，个个都是坏的。I bought a dozen eggs and every one of them was bad.
用复数动词则较口语化。

Grammar in use
1.形容词和副词的比较级和最高级
在英语中形容词和副词一般可以有比较级和最高级。比较级相当于汉语中“比…更…”这种句型，最高级则表示在某个范围“最…”的概念。最高级在使用时前面通常要加定冠词the,并有一个短语或从句限定其范围。
(1)比较级和最高级的构成
单音节词和少数双音节词(除以辅音+ -y结尾的词)在词尾加-er, -est, 以辅音+ -y 结尾的词要先将-y变成-i，再在词尾加上-er, -est：
e.g. hard-harder-hardest small-smaller-smallest young-younger-youngest
clean-cleaner-cleanest busy-busier-busiest
以-e结尾的词加-r和-st:
e.g. large-larger-largest nice-nicer-nicest
以一个辅音字母结尾的单音节词要双写最后一个字母，然后再加-er, -est：
e.g. big-bigger-biggest thin-thinner-thinnest
有一些双音节词在构成比较级和最高级形式时，既可以在单词结尾处加-er和-est，也可与more/less和most/least连用。如narrow, clever, common, pleasant等。但如无把握时，双音节词用more和most则较为可靠。两个音节以上的单词如下：
e.g. interesting-more interesting-most interesting
有些形容词和副词的比较级和最高级的构成并不规则：
e.g. good/well-better-best bad/ill-worse-worst many/much-more-most little-less-least
old-older/elder-oldest/eldest far-farther/further-farthest/furthest
(2)在使用比较级时，如果需要把所比较的两项都提到，那么就必须在比较级后用than:
e.g. 我比你了解他。I know him better than you do.
简的头发比玛丽的黑。Jane’s hair is darker than Mary’s.
我的房间比隔壁房间干净。My room is cleaner than the one next door.
如果比较级之所指很清楚，它可独立存在：
e.g. -你喜欢哪一所房子？Which house do you prefer?
-我喜欢那所老一点的。I prefer the older one.
(3) 最高级的限定范围一般用of, among, in等介词短语：
e.g. 这三个兄弟中约翰个子最高。John is the tallest of the three brothers.
这是十年来最冷的一天。This is the coldest day in ten years.
限定范围也可以是从句：
e.g. 玛丽是我所遇到的最聪明的人。Mary is the most intelligent person I’ve ever met.
如果范围很清楚，则可以省略：
e.g. 四月是最好的季节。(暗含范围“一年中”) April [?eipr?l] is the best season.
他总是最优秀的。(暗含范围“在我们当中”) He is always the best.
2. every 构成的合成词
every和one, body, thing 可以构成复合不定代词everyone, everybody和everything. 它们一般都写成一个词。everyone和everybody一般可以替换使用，后面的代词既可以用单数，也可以用复数，但它们本身均被视为单数：
e.g. 每一个人都知道自己必须做什么。Everyone/Everybody knows what he has to do.
每个人都知道自己必须做什么。Everyone/Everybody knows what they have to do.
一切都很顺利。Everything is going well.
与every一样可以构成这类合成词的单词还有some, any和no.
Lesson 90 What's for supper? 晚餐吃什么？ 【Text】 Fish and chips has always been a favourite dish in Britain, but as the oceans have been overfished, fish has become more and more expensive. So it comes as a surprise to learn that giant fish are terrifying the divers on North Sea oil rigs. Oil rigs have to be repaired frequently and divers, who often have to work in darkness a hundred feet under water, have been frightened out of their wits by giant fish bumping into them as they work. Now they have had special cages made to protect them from these monsters. The fish are not sharks or killer whales, but favourite eating varieties like cod and skate which grow to unnatural sizes, sometimes as much as twelve feet in length. Three factors have caused these fish to grow so large: the warm water round the hot oil pipes under the sea; the plentiful supply of food thrown overboard by the crews on the rigs; the total absence of fishing boats around the oil rigs. As a result, the fish just eat and eat and grow and grow in the lovely warm water. Who eats who? 【课文翻译】 油煎鱼加炸土豆片一直是英国人喜爱的一道菜，但是随着海洋里的滥捕滥捞，鱼已经变得越来越昂贵。因此，听说北海石油钻井平台上的潜水员受到巨型鱼类的恐吓，确实很让人吃惊。钻井平台需要经常修理，潜水员常常要在水面100英尺以下摸黑工作，他们曾在工作时被撞到他们身上的大鱼吓得惊惶失措。现在他们有了特制的笼子，用来保护他们免受大鱼的侵袭。这些鱼并不是鲨鱼或逆戟鲸，而是深受人们喜爱的食用鱼品种，如鳕鱼和鳐鱼，只不过它们长得出奇地大，有时长达12英尺。这些鱼能长得这么大是由3个因素造成的：海底热的输油管道附近的温暖的海水；钻井平台工作人员抛到海里充足的食物；钻井平台周围根本没有捕鱼船只。结果是，这些鱼就在可爱的温暖的水流中吃呀吃，长呀长。究竟谁吃谁呢？ New words and expressions 生词和短语

根据课文第3行和第7行 I never enjoy meeting Nigel Dykes. ‘Hello Nigel,’ I said. ‘Fancy meeting you here!’ .可以推测出b. out of politeness(出于礼貌)是伊丽莎白向Nigel打招呼时的态度和口气，其他3个选择都与课文的实际情况不符。 2. b 根据课文的情景，可以判断b. insensitive(感觉迟钝的)能最恰当的描绘Nigel Dykes 是什么样的人，其他3个选择a. funny(可笑的，滑稽的)；c. nuisance(讨厌的人),d. cruel(残酷的)都不够恰当，不符合课文的内容。 我们这道题目是让你选一个词来描绘Nigel Dykes 是什么样的人,只有他反应迟钝能够最恰当了。 他不能领会作者的意思，作者不想跟他说话，便称自己要去看牙医，很明显作者是想打发Nigel Dykes 他走，但是他硬是不明白作者的意思，还要陪作者去。你说这样的一个人，不时反应迟钝，还是什么？？？用我们现在的话来说“他大脑有问题，积水啦，弱智啦。”
Lesson 22 A glass envelope 玻璃信封 Text How did Jane receive a letter from a stranger? My daughter, Jane, never dreamed of receiving a letter from a girl of her own age in Holland. Last year, we were travelling across the Channel and Jane put a piece of paper with her name and address on it into a bottle. She threw the bottle into the sea. She never thought of it again, but ten months later, she received a letter from a girl in Holland. Both girls write to each other regularly now. However, they have decided to use the post office. Letters will cost a little more, but they will certainly travel faster.

Lesson 68 Persistent 纠缠不休 【Text】 I crossed the street to avoid meeting him, but he saw me and came running towards me. It was no use pretending that I had not seen him, so I waved to him. I never enjoy meeting Nigel Dykes. He never has anything to do. No matter how busy you are, he always insists on coming with you. I had to think of a way of preventing him from following me around all morning. 'Hello, Nigel,' I said. 'Fancy meeting you here!' 'Hi, Elizabeth,' Nigel answered. 'I was just wondering how to spend the morning -- until I saw you. 'You're not busy doing anything, are you?' 'No, not at all,' I answered. 'I'm going to...' 'Would you mind my coming with you?' he asked, before I had finished speaking. 'Not at all,' I lied, 'but I'm going to the dentist.' 'Then I'll come with you,' he answered. 'There's always plenty to read in the waiting room! 【课文翻译】 我穿过马路以便避开他，但他看到我并朝我跑过来。若再装作没看见他已是没有用了，我只好向他招手。我就怕遇到奈杰尔.戴克斯。他从来都是无事可做，不管你多忙，他总是坚持要跟你去。我得想办法不让他整个上午缠着我。 “你好，奈杰尔，想不到在这儿见到你。”我说。 “你好，伊丽莎白，”奈杰尔回答说，“我正不知道怎么消磨这一上午呢，正好见到你。你不忙，是吗?” “不，不忙，我打算去......”我回答。 “我跟你一道去行吗?”没等我说完话他就问道。 “没关系，但我准备去牙医那里。”我说了个谎。 “那我也跟你去，候诊室里总有很多东西可供阅读!”他回答。 New words and expressions 生词和短语

新概念英语第二册Lesson67语法知识点 表示“能力”的情态助动词及其他有关的动词： can/ could, be able to 与 manage to (1)在第43课的语法中，我们学习了表示“能力”的 can/could。用将来时的句子中表示“能力”时通常用 will be able to, 在表示成功地完成过去某个动作时用was able to而不用could： I can't remember where I've seen him. 我想不起来我在什么地方见过他。 I can sing some songs, but I can't play the piano. 我会唱一些歌，但我不会弹钢琴。 He thought he could pass the exam easily, but he failed. 他以为他能轻易地通过考试，结果他没通过。 After Byrd had ordered his men to throw out two heavy food sacks, the plane was then able to rise. 在伯德命令他的助手们扔掉两个沉重的食物袋之后，飞机才可以上升了。 Jane can't swim yet. She'll be able to swim in a few months time. 简不会游泳。再过几个月她就会游泳了。 (2)表示“能力”的另一种方式是用 manage to。在表示成功地完成过去某个动作时，它经常代替 be able to。与 be able to相比，它更强调“虽然困难很大，但仍能……”这种含义。试比较： He finished the job yesterday. 他昨天把工作做完了。(陈述一个事实) He was able to finish the job yesterday. 他昨天把工作做完了。(表示可能) He managed to finish the job yesterday.

Lesson 60 The future 【New words and expressions】future n. 未来，前途 fair n. 集市fortune-teller n. 算命人crystal n. 水晶relation n. 亲属impatiently adv. 不耐烦地 ★relation n. 亲属 ①n. （事物间的）关系，关联（不可数） I know little about the relation of/between time and space. Is there any relation between the hot snake and the forest fire? ②n. （国家、人民等之间的）关系，往来（可数） Friendly relations have been developed between the two cities. They have broken relations with that firm. ③n. 亲戚，亲属（可数） A near relation of yours is coming to see you. 【Text】 At a village fair, I decided to visit a fortune-teller called Madam Bellinsky. I went into her tent and she told me to sit down. After I had given her some money, she looked into a crystal ball and said: 'A relation of yours is coming to see you. She will be arriving this evening and intends to stay for a few days. The moment you leave this tent, you will get a big surprise. A woman you know well will rush towards you. She will speak to you and then she will lead you away from this place. That is all.' As soon as I went outside, I forgot all about Madam Bellinsky because my wife hurried towards me. 'Where have you been hiding?' she asked impatiently. 'Your sister will be here in less than an hour and we must be at the station to meet her. We are late already.' As she walked away, I followed her out of the fair. 【课文讲解】 1、A relation of yours is coming to see you. a relation of yours 您的一个亲戚（双重所有格） 句中的现在进行时并不表示目前正在进行的动作，而表示将要发生的事情。 2、The moment you leave this tent, you will get a big surprise. the moment = as soon as 一……就……（在这个连词引导的时间状语从句中要用一般现在时来表示将来时） 3、That is all. 在口语中表示“完了，就这些，事情就是这样”。 He borrowed some money from me. That’s all. 他向我借了些钱，仅此而已。 4、As soon as I went outside, I forgot all about Madam Bellinsky because my wife hurried towards me. 这句话中的all 是代词，表示“一切，全部，所有的事”，它作主语时被视为单数： All I can remember is her name. hurry towards sb. 向某人匆匆走去 5、Your sister will be here in less than an hour and we must be at the station to meet her. must be表示用现在时态指将来的状况，这句话也可变成： We must go to the station to meet her. 【Key structures】表示将要发生的事情 在英语中，现在进行时也可用来表示为将来安排好的活动和事件。这种用法通常需要一个表示时间的状语（往往是不久的将来）。arrive，come，go，leave 等动词的进行式经常有这种用法，表示行程安排有关的“将到达，_____ 将离去”等意思： He’s arriving this evening.

新概念英语第二册课后题答案详解Lesson68 1. b 根据课文第3行和第7行 I never enjoy meeting Nigel Dykes. ‘Hello Nigel,’ I said. ‘Fancy meeting you here!’ .能够推 测出b. out of politeness(出于礼貌)是伊丽莎白向Nigel打招呼时 的态度和口气，其他3个选择都与课文的实际情况不符。 2. b 根据课文的情景，能够判断b. insensitive(感觉迟钝的)能最恰当的描绘Nigel Dykes 是什么样的人，其他3个选择a. funny(可笑的，滑稽的);c. nuisance(讨厌的人),d. cruel(残酷的)都不够恰当，不符合课文的内容。 我们这道题目是让你选一个词来描绘Nigel Dykes 是什么样的人,只有他反应迟钝能够最恰当了。 他不能领会作者的意思，作者不想跟他说话，便称自己要去看牙医，很明显作者是想打发Nigel Dykes 他走，但是他硬是不明白作者 的意思，还要陪作者去。你说这样的一个人，不时反应迟钝，还是什么??? 用我们现在的话来说“他大脑有问题，积水啦，弱智啦。” 3. c 只有c. running 最合乎语法，running 在此句中是现在分词做 状语，表示方式。其他3个选择都不合乎语法。 a. run 是动词原形，不能放在went 后面;b. to running 前面不应该有to; d. ran 是过 去式，更不能用在went 后面，所以选c. 4. d
该句中的worth (值得……的)是形容词，它后面只能跟名词或动名词。 a. to do, b. do , c. done 都不是动名词，所以都不符合语法;只有d. doing 是动名词，所以选d. 5. b 该句需要选一个同前一句中的never has anything to do (从来无事可做)意义相同的短语。 a. has to do nothing (什么都不必做)同前一句意思不符;c. nothing has to do 和d. to do nothing has 都是语序混乱，没有意义;只有b. has nothing to do (无事可做)同never has anything to do 意义相同，所以选b. 6. b 该句的动词insisted(坚持)后面需要跟on+动名词或that引导的从句，其谓语一定要用should加动词原形。 a. to go, c. to going, d. in going 都不符合语法，只有 b. that he should go 能够跟在insist后面做宾语，所以选b. 7. b 该句中的动词mind(介意)后面能够直接跟动名词也能够在动名词前加宾格或所有格代词,但所表达的意思不同. a.-若什么也不加,虽然合乎语法,但句子意思有些含糊不清,因为主语she同最后的her不知是否是一个人,如果是一个人,句子前后矛盾,如果是两个人,没有上下文能够证明,故不能选a. c. he 是主格代词 d. himself是反身代词 3者都不符合语法,只有b. his是所有格代词,既符合语法和题目意思,所以选b. 8. c
