Lesson 30 自学导读First things first 课文详注 Further notes on the text
1．The Wayle is a small river that cuts across the park near my home. 威尔河是横穿过我家附近公园的一条小河。
在这句话中，that引导的定语从句修饰 a small river，关系代词that在从句中作主语。地点状语 near my home修饰 the park。
2．I like sitting by the Wayle on fine afternoons. 我喜欢在天气晴朗的下午到河边坐坐。
（1）by在此处表示“在……旁边／近旁”。
（2）afternoon为复数形式，表示经常性的情况，因此谓语为一般现在时。由于afternoon前面有修饰词，因此要用介词on。
morning，evening与它的用法一致。试比较：
He came to the office in the afternoon.
他下午去了办公室。
He met John on Sunday/on a fine afternoon.
他在星期天/在一个晴朗的下午遇见了约翰。
Will you come to the meeting this/tomorrow afternoon?
你来参加今天/明天下午的会吗?(在this , tomorrowr ,yesterday等前面不加介词)
This happend on the afternoon of May22.
这事发生于5月22日下午。(请注意在the afternoon of May22之前要用介词on)
3．…it went towards a passing boat.……球便向着一只划过来的小船飞去。
（1）go在此处不是指人“走”，而是指球“行进”。
（2）passing为现在分词，作定语，表示“经过的”、“划过来的”，如a passing plane（一架飞过的飞机）。
4．Some people on the bank called out to the man in the boat…岸上的一些人对着小船上的人高喊……
call out表示“大声呼叫”、“叫喊”，比call语气要重：
I heard someone calling out for help.
我听到有人在大声呼救。
Mary called out to her father, but he was too far away and couldn't hear her.
玛丽对着她的父亲高喊，但他离得太远了，听不到她的喊叫。
5．The ball struck him so hard that he nearly fell into the water.
球重重地打在他身上，使他差点儿落入水中。
so +形容词+that通常引导结果状语从句，表示“如此……以至于……”：The book was so interesting that I read it in two hours.
这本书如此有趣，我两个小时就把它看完了。
The box is so heavy that I can't lift it without your help.
这箱子太重了，以至于没有你的帮助我无法把它举起来。
这个结构也可以用于so +副词+that从句结构：
He ran so quickly that no one could catch up with him.
他跑得非常快，没人能赶上他。
It rained so hard that we couldn't go out.
雨下得很大，我们无法出去。
在口语中，引导词that往往可以省略。
6．I turned to look at the children, but there weren't any in sight…我转过头去看那些孩子，但一个也不见……
（1）any代替 any children。
（2） in sight表示“看得见”、“在视野之内”，反义词为 out of sight：No bus is in sight.
看不见任何公共汽车。
Mary came in sight when I was waiting for Lucy.
我等露西的时候，玛丽出现了。
In the afternoon, we came in sight of the village.
下午时，我们见到了那座村庄。
George left the store and was soon out of sight.
乔治离开了那商店，不久便不见了。
语法 Grammar in use
a，the，some与any的用法
在第6课的语法中，我们学习了a，the和some的一些基本用法。与some 意义相近的另一个单词是any，它们都表示“一些”。some通常用于肯定句：There are some eggs in the fridge.
冰箱里有些鸡蛋。
There is some milk in the fridge.
冰箱里有些牛奶。
any通常用于否定句和疑问句中：
There isn't any meat in the fridge.
冰箱里没肉了。
但是，在疑问句中如果所期望的回答是肯定的，则可以用some：
Can I borrow some forks?
我能借些叉子吗?
I haven't got any here,but there are some in that drawer.
我这里没有叉子、不过那个抽屉里有一些。
我们已经知道，在姓名、地名、国名（非复合词）前面通常不加任何冠词。但是，在特指的海洋、河流、山脉以及部分复合词形式的国名前，一定要用定冠词the：
He came from the United States of America.
他来自美国。
John lives in London which is on the Thames.
约翰住在泰晤士河畔的伦敦。
在表示世界上独一无二的东西时，通常要加定冠词the：The moon is very pale tonight.
今晚月光很朦胧。
The sun is bright today.
今天阳光明媚。
在 such后面用 a/an，可以起强调作用：
The wind is very strong today!
今天风很大!
Yes,I've never seen such a strong wind before.
是的，我以前从没有见过这么大的风。

Lesson 30 课后练习和答案Exercises and Answer
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.

Book II Lesson 25 Do the English speak English? I arrived in London at last. The railway station was big, black and dark. I did not know the way to my hotel, so I asked a porter. I not only spoke English very carefully, but very clearly as well. The porter, however, could not understand me; I repeated my question several times and at last he understood. He answered me, but he spoke neither slowly nor clearly. 'I am a foreigner,' I said. Then he spoke slowly, but I could not understand him. My teacher never spoke English like that! The porter and I looked at each other and smiled. Then he said something and I understood it. 'You'll soon learn English!' he said.I wonder. In England, each man speaks a different language. The English understand each other, but I don't understand them ! Do they speak English ? Book II Lesson 26 The best art critics ?I am an art student and I paint a lot of pictures. Many people pretend that they understand modern art. They always tell you what a picture is 'about'. Of course, many pictures arc not 'about' anything. They are just pretty patterns. We like them in the same way that we like pretty curtain material. I think that young children often appreciate modern pictures better than anyone else. They notice more. My sister is only seven, but she always tells me whether my pictures are good or not. She came into my room yesterday.' What are you doing ?' she asked.' I'm hanging this picture on the wall,' I answered. 'It's a new one. Do you like it ?' She looked at it critically for a moment.' It's all right,' she said, 'but isn't it upside-down ?' I looked at it again. She was right! It was! Book II Lesson 27 A wet night Late in the afternoon, the boys put up their tent in the middle of a field. As soon as this was done, they cooked a meal over an open fire.

Lesson 93 A noble gift 崇高的礼物 Where was the Statue of Liberty made? One of the most famous monuments in the world, the Statue of Liberty, was presented to the United States of America in the nineteenth century by the people of France. The great statue, which was designed by the sculptor Auguste Bartholdi, took ten years to complete. The actual figure was made of copper supported by a metal framework which had been especially constructed by Eiffel. Before it could be transported to the United States, a site had to be found for it and a pedestal had to be built. The site chosen was an island at the entrance of New York Harbour. By 1884, a statue which was 151 feet tall had been erected in Paris. The following year, it was taken to pieces and sent to America. By the end of October 1886, the statue had been put together again and it was officially presented to the American people by Bartholdi. Ever since then, the great monument has been a symbol of liberty for the millions of people who have passed through New York Harbour to make their homes in America. 参考译文 世界上最着名的纪念碑之一的自由女神雕像是在19世纪时由法国人民赠送给美国的。这座由雕像家奥古斯特.巴索尔地设计的巨大雕像是用10年时间雕像刻成的。这座雕像的主体是用铜制成的，由艾菲尔特制的金属框架支撑着。在雕像被运往美国之前，必须为它选好一块场地，同时必须建造一个基座。场地选在了纽约港入口处的一个鸟上。到1884年，一座高度达151英尺的雕像在巴黎竖立起来了。第二年，它被拆成若干小块，运到美国。到1886年10月底，这座雕像被重新组装起来，由巴索尔地正式赠送给美国人民。从那时起，这座伟大的纪念碑对通过纽约港进入美国定居的千百万人来说就一直是自由的象征。 【New words and expressions】（13） ★ noble（1）adj. 高尚的，高贵的 ←→ ignoble ?[ig?n?ub?l] a.卑鄙的 a noble mind 崇高的思想 （2） adj. 贵族的、高贵的 a man of noble birth 出身高贵的人； a noble family 名门望族

------------------------------------------------------------精品文档-------------------------------------------------------- Lesson 69 But not murder 【Text】 I was being tested for a driving licence for the third time. I had been asked to drive in heavy traffic and had done so successfully. After having been instructed to drive out of town, I began to acquire confidence. Sure that I had passed, I was almost beginning to enjoy my test. The examiner must have been pleased with my performance, for he smiled and said, Just one more thing, Mr. Eames. Let us suppose that a child suddenly crosses the road in front of you. As soon as I tap on the window, you must stop within five feet. I continued driving and after some time, the examiner tapped loudly, Though the sound could be heard clearly, it took me a long time to react. I suddenly pressed the brake pedal and we were both thrown forward. The examiner looked at me sadly. Mr. Eames, he said, in a mournful voice, you have just killed that child!' 【课文翻译】 我第3次接受驾驶执照考试。按照要求在车辆拥挤的路上驾驶，我圆满地完成了。在接到把车开出城的指令后，我开始有了信心。确信我已通过考试，所以我几乎开始喜欢起这次考试。主考人对我的驾驶想必是满意的，因为他微笑着说：“埃姆斯先生，只剩1项了。让我们假设一个小孩子突然在你前面穿过马路。我一敲车窗，你必须把车停在5英尺之内。（车得立即停下来）” 我继续往前开着。过了一会儿，主考人砰砰地敲了起来。虽然声音听得很清楚，但我过了好一会儿才作出反应。我突然用力踩紧刹车踏板，结果我俩的身体都向前冲去。主考人伤心地看着我。“埃姆斯先生，”他以悲伤的声调说，“你刚刚把那个小孩压死了！” New words and expressions 生词和短语
