好好努力 梦想终会实现 1 Book 4 Unit 1 重点短语讲解
1. She devoted all her life to medical work for Chinese women and
children. (P1)
【归纳】 devote... to... 意为“献身，致力于”，指把自己的时间和精力等奉献给某种工作或事业。devote 的宾语是oneself, one’s time,
one’s life等，to是介词，后接名词、代词或动名词。
【延伸】 to作介词后可接doing / n. / pron.，常见的动词短语如下：
be / get used to习惯于；get down to开始认真（做某事）；lead to通向，导致；look forward to盼望，期待；pay attention to注意；prefer
doing to doing宁愿……不愿……；stick to坚持；object to反对，不赞成；see to照料，照顾；be up to从事于；belong to属于；in addition
to除……外。
【易错点】 devote后没有宾语时，应用be devoted to... 形式。如：
His whole life was devoted to teaching.
2. By chance I came across an article about a doctor called Lin Qiaozhi...
(P6)
【归纳】 by chance = by accident意为“恰巧，碰巧，偶然，意外”。
【延伸】 give sb a chance 给某人一个机会；get / have a chance有机会；take a / one’s chance 碰运气，冒一冒险； there is a chance that...
有可能，有希望。
