一、知识要点梳理
1. Where would you like to go on vacation, Sam? 萨姆,你想到哪儿去度假?
go on是不及物动词词组,意为“继续”,其后不能跟名词或代词作宾语。
The teacher asked him to stop talking, but he still went on. 老师叫他别讲,可他还是讲个不停。
●友情提示● go on后面可以接动词不定式或动词-ing形式,但它们的意义不同。
Let’s go on discussing the question. 咱们继续谈论个问题吧。
Let’s go on to discuss the question. 咱们接着谈论另外一个问题吧。
go on with也是“继续”的意思,后面可直接跟名词或代词作宾语。
Let’s go on with the work. 咱们继续进行这项工作吧!
go on with可与 go on doing sth. 互换。
Go on with your lessons (= Go on having your lessons.). 继续上你的课吧!
2. I love places where the people are really friendly. 我喜欢人们很热情好客的地方。
此句是一个主从复合句,关系副词Where引导的定语从句修饰places。先行词是表示地点的名词时,常用关系副词where引导定语从句,并且在定语从句中作状语用。如果关系词在从句中是作宾语、主语等,就不能用关系副词where引导定语从句。
Have you been to the small town where you were born? 你去过你所出生的那个小城吗?
That is the house where (= in which) he lived ten years ago. 那是他十年前住过的房子。
This is a place (which) I’ve long wanted to visit. 这是我长期以来想参观的地方。(which作visit的宾语,可以省略。)
3. I hope to go to France some day. 我希望有一天去法国。
句中的some day意为“将来的某一天”。
I think that he will come to visit me some day next week. 我想他会在下周的某一天来看我。
●友情提示● some day与someday不同。Someday表示“总有一天”、“有朝一日”。
Perhaps someday he will be rich. 也许有朝一日他会富起来。
4. For your next vacation, why not consider visiting Paris? 下个假期为什么不考虑一下去参观巴黎呢?
consider为动词,在此意为“考虑”,相当于think about, 后可接名词、代词、v.-ing、从句或“疑问词 不定式”作宾语。但其后不能直接跟动词不定式作宾语。
You’d better consider my suggestion. 你最好考虑一下我的建议。
We’re considering buying a new car. 我们正在考虑买一辆新车。
He has never considered how to solve the problem. 他从未考虑过如何解决那个问题。
You have to consider what to do next. 你得考虑下一步该怎么做。
●友情提示● consider还有“认为”的意思,相当于think, 后接复合宾语或从句。
We consider him (to be) our best friend.
= We consider him as our best friend.
= We consider that he is our best friend.
我们认为他是我们最好的朋友。

live读作/laiv/时,也作形容词,意为“活着的“,常放在名词之前作定语,它一般不用来修饰人;live读/liv/时,是动词,意为”生活、生存”。
The cat was playing with a live mouse. 这只猫在玩弄一只活老鼠。
Pandas usually live in the south and the southeast of China.熊猫通常生活在中国的南部或东南部。
6. Isn’t it supposed to be very hot? 那儿应该很热啊!

9. I hope you can provide me with some information about the kinds of vacations that your firm can offer. 我希望贵公司能提供给我们各种度假的信息。
句中的provide和offer都有“供给”、“提供”的意思,但用法不同。
provide指有远见地、为应付意外或紧急情况而“供给”、“提供”,常用于provide sb. with sth.或provide sth. for sb. 结构中。Offer侧重表示“愿意给予”。常用于offer sb. sth.或offer to do sth. 结构中。

12. It seems some students would like to start work as soon as possible, so that they can help provide better lives for their parents. 似乎有些学生想要尽快开始工作,这样他们就可以改善父母的生活。
●词语辨析● so that与so...that
so that意为“以便,为的是”,既可引导目的状语从句,又可引导结果状语从句。
①so that从句前如果有逗号,通常为结果状语从句。
We got up early, so that we arrived there in time.
我们很早就起床了,结果按时到达了那里。
②so that从句中有情态动词can, could, may, might等,而且so that前没有逗号
的多数是目的状语从句。
Jim studies hard so that he can catch up the other students.
吉姆努力学习以便赶上其他同学。
③有些句子不能从表面现象去直观判断,要根据从句的意义和逻辑去判断究竟是哪种从
句。
He started early so that he was in time for the meeting.
他出发早,及时到会。(结果状语从句)
●友情提示●so that所连接的复合句和in order to(为了)的简单句可进行同义句转换。
They started early so that they could get there in time.
=They started early in order to get there in time.
他们很早就出发,为的是及时赶到那里。
so...that意为“如此……以致……”,用来引导结果状语从句。常用于以下几种情形:
①so Bdj./Bdv. that从句
They were so pleased to see each other that they forgot everything else.
他们彼此见到面,高兴得连别的什么事都忘了。
②so many/few 复数名词 that从句
There were so many shoes in the shop that I couldn’t decided which pair to
buy.
商店的鞋这么多,我定不下来买哪一双。
③so much/little 不可数名词 that从句
There was so much rain last spring that the vegetables did not grow well.
去年春天雨水很多,蔬菜长得不好。
④so Bdj. a/an 单数可数名词 that从句
This is so good a book that all of us like reading it.
这本书那么好,我们都喜欢读。
●友情提示●在so...that引导的复合句中,若that之后的从句是否定形式,我们可以
用too...to...将其改为简单句;若that之后的从句是肯定形式,我们可以用...enough to...将其改为简单句。
这箱子太重,我搬不动。
The box is so heavy that I can’t carry it.
=The box is too heavy for me to carry.
这房子够大的,能容纳80人。
This room is so big that it can hold 80 people.
=This room is big enough to hold 80 people.
二、单元语法点拨
关系副词when, where, why引导的定语从句
在上一个单元里,我们已经学习了关系代词引导的定语从句,今天我们在这里要学习关系副词引导的定语从句。
关系副词,顾名思义,是联系先行词和定语从句的词,起副词的作用,在从句中作状语,其作用相当于介词短语。引导定语从句的关系副词有when, where和why等,它们都可以用“介词 which”替换。其句法结构如下:
1. when (= on / in / at which) 引导的定语从句,通常修饰表示时间的名词,when在从句中作时间状语。
July and August are the months when (in which) the weather is hot. 七八月是天气炎热的月份。
I shall never forget the day when (on which) I joined the League. 我永远不会忘记我入团的那一天。
2. where (= in / at which) 引导的定语从句,通常修饰表示地点的名词,where在从句中作地点状语。
This is the park where (in which) I lost my watch. 这就是我丢失手表的公园。
Have you been to the small town where (in which) you grew up? 你去过你成长的那个小城吗?
3. why (= for which) 引导的定语从句表示原因,why在从句中作原因状语,先行词通常是reason。
That’s the reason why (for which) he was late this morning. 那就是他今天早上迟到的原因。
The reason why (for which) he left here is still unknown. 他离开这里的原因还不清楚。
●友情提示● 有时先行词虽然是表示时间、地点的名词,但关联词在从句中不是充当状语,而是主语或宾语等,这时关联词就不能用when和where。
试比较:
I still remember the days when I stayed in Beijing. 我仍然记得我在北京逗留的那些日子。
I have never forgotten the days which we spent together. 我从未忘掉我们一起度过的那些日子。
He showed me the place where he lived. 他带我看了他住的地方。
This is the place which we visited last year. 这是我们去年参观过的地方。
●即学即练● 选择填空。
( )1. The place _________ I grew up is a beautiful city.
A. which B. when C. where D. from which
( )2. Winter is the time of year _________ the days are short and the nights are long.

Keys: 1~5 C B C C C
三、高频考点聚焦
1. -Would you like some more rice?
- _______. I’m full. (温州)
A. No, thanks B. Yes, thank you
C. I’d love to D. Yes, please
解析:由空后的“I’m full.”可知不用了,要说No, thanks. 选A。
2.- Who broke that window?
-I _______. (黄冈)
A. do B. did C. had D. broke
解析:为避免重复,我们常用do的某种形式来替代上面出现过的谓语动词。选B。
3. The students are sorry to hear that the famous singer _______ for half an hour. ( 陕西)
A. has left B. has gone
C. has been away D. has gone away
解析:非延续性动词不能和表示“一段时间”的状语连用。但“be 副词”却可以表示状态,能与“一段时间”连用。常常见到有这种转换关系的词语有:come (来)→ be here, go (去)→ be there, finish (完成)→ be over, leave (离开)→ be away。选C。
4. Nanjing is a city with many places of interest. ________ tourists come here every year. (南京)
A. Thousand of B. Thousand
C. Thousands D. Thousands of
解析:hundred (百), thousand(千), million(百万), billion(十亿)的复数形式后面加of,表示不确切的数字;具体的基数词后面加hundred, thousand, million, billion的单数形式,表示确切的数字。选D。
5. She’ll come back as soon as possible. (同义词语转换)(益阳)
A. as soon as she can B. as quick as she can
C. as soon as she could D. as quickly as she
解析:as soon as possible与as soon as one can / could同义。选A。
6. -He was _________ tired _________ he fell asleep as soon as he lay down.
-Oh. We can go out and let him have a good rest. (黄冈)
A. too; to B. so; that
C. enough; to D. such; that
解析:第一句的句意为“他是如此的累了,以致他一躺下就睡着了”。表示“如此……以致于……”要用so...that...。选B。
7. Mr West showed me around the library _______ he was working. (聊城)
A. which B. where C. that D. who
解析:定语从句中修饰地点名词且在从句中作状语时,要用关系副词where连接。选B。
8. I hope Tina ________ to my birthday party on time next Wednesday. (甘肃)
A. to come B. come C. came D. will come
解析:hope用作及物动词时,后面接不定式或宾语从句。不可用hope sb. to do sth. 结构。选D。
四、主要课文译文
Section A 3a
旅游景点:巴黎
下个假期为什么不考虑一下去参观巴黎呢?巴黎是法国的首都,也是欧洲最有活力的城市之一。经没有海滩和高山,但仍有很多地方值得参观。例如,那儿有一些非常迷人的景点,包括埃菲尔铁塔和世界上最著名的教堂之一的巴黎圣母院。
乘计程车游巴黎会很贵,但乘地铁去大部分景点常常相当便利。尽管如此,大体上来说法国仍是一个高消费的地方。但是有一种东西在法国并不贵,那就是酒。
法国的大部分人都学过英语。但很多人不想讲英语,特别是在巴黎。所以除非你自己会讲法语,旅行时最好有人做你的翻译。
Section B 3a
亲爱的埃斯旅社:
我和我的家人这个暑假想去中国东部的某个地方度假。我希望你可以给我提供一些关于你们公司关于这类旅游的信息。我们想去一个刺激的地方,我们并不介意到底有多远。那儿得是一个能做大量户外活动的地方,我们尤其喜欢徒步旅行和游泳,但其他类型的户外活动都行。我们还希望能够住在便宜些的旅馆或公寓。如果我们的旅馆或公寓带有厨房的话就太好了。那样我们可以自己做饭,这样比较省钱。房间应该足够住下三个人。同时,我们想在有大游泳池或者离海很近的地方住。你能给我们一些关于旅游地点的建议吗?另外,请告诉我们最好是乘飞机还是乘火车或者汽车。我们有大约三周左右的时间。
非常感谢。

我想横渡太平洋航行。
我们都对自己想做的事情和在未来希望取得的东西抱有梦想。但每个人的梦想都是一样的吗?这儿有一些有关希望和梦想的调查结果,全中国有成千上万的学生参与该调查。
青少年的希望是什么?
对此问题我们收到几种不同的回答:接受完教育之后你想去做什么?似乎有些学生想要尽快开始工作,这样他们就可以改善父母的生活。另一些学生毕业后希望继续学习,去上大学。尽管钱很重要,很多青少年说他们想去做自己喜欢的工作。根据调查,最受欢迎的工作选择是电脑编程。
青少年的梦想是什么?
青少年有各种各样的梦想。一些人的梦想比另一些人的更现实。例如,很多学生说他们想成为2008年奥运会的志愿者,可能去做翻译或导游。相当一部份人说他们梦想着有一天去月球。
根据调查,不太现实的梦想也很普遍,但是很多学生说他们愿望努力工作来实现他们的梦想。相当一部份人梦想着出名,可能成为有名的运动员或歌手。一些人说他们想要继续令人激动的旅行;一个学生说她想横渡太平洋航行。也有一些不可能实现的梦想;有三个学生说他们希望能飞!
结论
这份调查清楚地表明青少年有着相似的梦想。看起来大部份学生希望接受良好的教育,并找到一份好工作。另一方面,学生们梦想着非常不同寻常的事情,甚至那些疯狂的事情。梦想很重要,所以抓住梦想:有一天它们可能会实现。
