The plane wasn't too badly damaged, but over the years, the crash was forgotten and the wreck remained undisturbed. Then in 1989, twenty-six years after the crash, the plane was accidentally rediscovered in an aerial survey of the island. By this time, a Lancaster bomber in reasonable condition was rare and worth rescuing. The French authorities had the plane packaged and moved in parts back to France. Now a group of enthusiasts are going to have the plane restored. It has four Rolls-Royce Merlin engines, but the group will need to have only three of them rebuilt. Imagine their surprise and delight when they broke open the packing cases and found that the fourth engine was sweet as honey -- still in perfect condition. A colony of bees had turned the engine into a hive and it was totally preserved in beeswax!参考译文1963 年, 一架兰开斯特轰炸机在瓦立斯岛坠毁. 那是南太平洋中一个很偏僻的小岛, 位于萨摩亚群岛以西, 距离群岛还有很长一段距离. 飞机损坏的程度并不严重, 但是, 多年来这起飞机失事已被遗忘, 飞机残骸也没受到破坏. 于是, 到了1989 年, 飞机失事26 年后, 在对小岛的一次航空勘查中那架飞机被意外地发现了. 到了那个时候, 状况良好的兰开斯特轰炸机实属罕见, 值得抢救. 法国政府让人把飞机包装起来, 一部分一部分地搬回法国. 一群热心人计划修复这架飞机. 该飞机装配有4台罗尔斯-罗伊斯的默林发动机, 但是他们只需要修复其中的3 台. 想一想他们所感受到的惊奇和兴奋——当他们拆开包装箱时, 他们发现第4 台发动机就像蜂蜜一样甜——发动机完好无损. 一群蜜蜂把发动机当作了蜂房, 发动机在蜂蜡中被完整地保存了下来.【课文讲解】1、In 1963 a Lancaster bomber crashed on Wallis Island, a remote place in the South Pacific, a long way west of Samoa.crash vi. 从上往下掉crash in the mountain 掉到山里a long way to go 有很长的路要走在英文中跟方位感相连的介词有三个in, on, toin 隶属关系Haerbin’s in the north of China.on是指跟一个地方有接触面Korea is on the north of China.to是相离的概念Japan is to the east of China.west of＝to the west of （west of前面没有任何词修饰的时候，认为处于相离的概念）2、The plane wasn't too badly damaged, but over the years, the crash was forgotten and the wreck remained undisturbed.over 在……期间/之中（相当于during，over 后如有数字则译为“超过”）over the years 这些年来over the new year 在新年期间；over the Christmas 在圣诞期间over Spring Festival 在春节期间He worked very hard over the last two years.Remain + adj. remain看作系动词be 理解The room remained warm. 房间还是那么暖和（注意与“the room was warm.” 的区别, “remain” 有保持的意思）3、By this time, a Lancaster bomber in reasonable condition was rare and worth rescuing.by this time 到这时in condition 处于……状态in reasonable condition＝in good conditionin perfect condition 处于完美状态in poor condition 状态不好Keep the house in good condition.reasonable在这里表示“尚好的，过得去的”，用于表示价钱时，指“公道的，合理的，不贵的”等The house is in reasonable condition.The price of the dress is reasonable.be worth doing sth. 值得……，具有……的价值（表达了被动含义, 用主动ing表达被动含义）The cake is worth eating.The books are worth reading.4、The French authorities had the plane packaged and moved in parts back to France. have sth. done 让别人做某事in parts =little by little，bit by bit 一部分一部分5、Imagine their surprise and delight when they broke open the packing cases and found that the fourth engine was sweet as honey -- still in perfect condition. imagine后面可以直接加宾语Imagine my excitement when I found my mother outside.Imagine their excitement and delight when the People’s Republic of China was founded.break sth. open 打开……cut it open 剪开(信封)tear it open 撕开(信封)在固定短语中as…as中的第一个as可省略I am busy as a bee. （as busy as a bee中第一个as 省略）sweet as honey 甜得象蜜(在文中是双关语, 注意体会)sticky as glue 胶水一样粘stong as horse 马一样强壮turn…into… 把……变成When it is cold enough, water is turned into ice.【Key structures】使役式使役式：have +名词/宾语代词+动词过去分词，使役式表示对某物（或某人）……。
