英语9上外研版Module 2:重点单词、短语解析(精品)1. die; dead; death; dying①.die v. 死,去世,为短暂性动词,不能与延续性时间连用,表延续性用be dead,如:She has been dead for 3 years.她去世三年了。
She died three years ago. 她三年前去世。
②.dead adj. 如:The poor man is dead.这个可怜的人死了。
③.death n. 死(亡),如:Her death is remembered by us forever.他的过世永远铭刻在我们的心中。
④.dying为die的现在分词,也可作形容词,表“垂死的,濒于死亡边缘的,枯萎的”之意,如:She is dying.她快要死了。
2.surprise、surprised、surprising区别:①.surprise既可用作动词,也可用作名词。
作动词用时意为“使(某人)惊奇或吃惊”。
作名词用时意为“惊奇、吃惊”。
如:The bad news didn't surprise them.这个坏消息没使他们吃惊。
in surprise(惊奇地)和to one's surprise(使某人感到吃惊的是)都是含有名词surprise的两个短语。
如:His brows went up in surprise.他惊讶地竖起眉毛。
To my surprise,the dog is still alive.使我吃惊的是,那条狗还活着。
②.surprised和surprising都是从动词surprise变来的两个形容词,区别在于:surprised有被动意味,表示“对……感到惊奇”,主语习惯上是人,且其后多接介词at;surprising有主动意味,指“使人惊奇的”,作表语时主语习惯上是事。
试比较:I was surprised at his answer.Your success is surprising.3. too, either, also, as well:①. too常用于句末,前面有逗号。

Module 2 My home town and my country 知识讲解看作一个整体,在句中做主语时,后面的谓语动词用单数形式。
例如:China has a quarter of the world’s population. 中国人口占世界人口的四分之一。
【拓展】(1)当表示一个城市、地区或国家有多少人口时,常用以下两种结构,即“the population of + 某地+ is + 数词”或“某地+ has a population of + 数词”。

(2)population可与large,small搭配,但不能与many,few搭配。

知识梳理:一、单词领读二、重点单词【单词学习】1. pretty ☆adv. 相当地【用法】pretty 在这里是一个副词,解释为“相当地”,是一个比较口语化的词汇。
【例句】—How was your weekend? 你周末过得如何?—Pretty good! 棒极了!She sings pretty well.她歌唱得相当好。
【拓展】pretty还可以作为形容词,意思是“漂亮的,美丽的”。
She is a pretty girl with long black hair.她是一个有着黑色长发的漂亮女孩儿。
【考题链接】请判断pretty的词性:You have done it pretty well.You look pretty in your new dress.答案:副词,形容词思路分析:不要把后者的look作为实义动词,实际上这里的look是一个系动词。
2. ago ☆☆☆ adv. 以前【用法】ago 是副词,表示以前,在一些句子中,我们应该学会判断ago在其中所提示的时态。
【例句】About thirty years ago it was very small, but today it is very big.三十年前它(深圳)还非常小,但是今天它很大。
【拓展】ago 主要考查的是它和时态的结合。
一般我们在句子中见到ago的话千万不要轻易判断时态。
She came to Beijing two years ago.She has been in Beijing since two years ago.【考题链接】请用动词适当形式填空:liveI ________ in Beijing 7 years ago.I ________ in Beijing since 7 years ago.答案:lived, have lived思路分析:前者是过去时,后者是完成时,关键在于since3. population ☆☆n. 人口【用法】提问人口,应该用What is the population of…?【例句】What is the population of Hong Kong?香港的人口是多少?【拓展】population不能和how many搭配,如果用how many则应该说成How many people are there in…?【考题链接】选择填空:What is the ____________ of America?A. peopleB. populationC. person答案:B思路分析:询问人口的提问方式。
