Unit16（第47講—第49講）
本課簡(jiǎn)介
心臟病在西方國(guó)家已成了健康的頭號(hào)殺手，僅在英國(guó)，每天就有約400人死于心臟病。于是人們投入大量的人力、物力施行心臟手術(shù)。心臟手術(shù)無(wú)疑使無(wú)數(shù)患者受益，但是過(guò)分強(qiáng)調(diào)對(duì)心臟病進(jìn)行手術(shù)治療則帶來(lái)了三個(gè)弊端。其一是對(duì)心臟病的預(yù)防不加重視；其二是醫(yī)療費(fèi)用攀升；其三是由于有現(xiàn)成的設(shè)備和技術(shù)，醫(yī)生們往往會(huì)給不需要?jiǎng)邮中g(shù)的病人做手術(shù)。近期的醫(yī)學(xué)研究強(qiáng)調(diào)，人們必須對(duì)引發(fā)心臟病的因素，如壓力、抽煙、缺少體育運(yùn)動(dòng)等加以重視。生活方式與心臟病之間是有聯(lián)系的，因此，人們意識(shí)到自己必須為自身的健康負(fù)責(zé)，改變飲食習(xí)慣，減輕生活壓力，減少抽煙，多多運(yùn)動(dòng)都是預(yù)防心臟病的有效方式。預(yù)防心臟病比治療心臟病更重要。
本課語(yǔ)言點(diǎn)
1. One of the greatest killers in the Western World is heart disease.
請(qǐng)注意主謂一致的問(wèn)題
A： one of +復(fù)數(shù)名詞做主語(yǔ)時(shí)，后面的謂語(yǔ)用單數(shù)形式：
1）One of the longest rivers in the world is in China. （世界上長(zhǎng)的河流之一在中國(guó)。）
2）One of the most famous circuses in East Europe is coming to China. （東歐有名的馬戲團(tuán)之一將來(lái)中國(guó)。）
3）One of the most expensive cars in the parking lot belongs to Mr. Watson.（停車(chē)場(chǎng)里昂貴的汽車(chē)之一是華生先生的。）
B：one of +復(fù)數(shù)名詞+定語(yǔ)從句時(shí)，定語(yǔ)從句一般被看作修飾復(fù)數(shù)名詞，因此從句中的謂語(yǔ)要用復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如：
1）This is one of the best films that have released this year. （這是今年發(fā)行的佳影片之一。）
2）Mr. Wang is one of those people who are hard to deal with. （王先生屬于那種很難打交道的人。）
3）He is one of those persons who always think they are right. （他屬于那些總認(rèn)為自己正確的人。）
2. The death rate from the disease has been increasing at an alarming speed for the past thirty years.
本句中的時(shí)態(tài)是現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時(shí)，由has （have） been加現(xiàn)在分詞構(gòu)成，主要表現(xiàn)以前這一段時(shí)間里一直在進(jìn)行的一個(gè)動(dòng)作，這個(gè)動(dòng)作也可能仍然在進(jìn)行，如：
1）What book have you been reading recently？ （你近在看什么書(shū)？）
2）How have you been getting on with your work？ （工作進(jìn)行得怎么樣？）
3）All these years they have been contributing articles to our newspaper. （這些年來(lái)他們一直為我們報(bào)紙寫(xiě)稿。）
at an alarming speed的意思是“以驚人的速度”
1）We are driving at the speed of 60 miles an hour. （我們正以每小時(shí)60英里的速度行駛。）
2）He is running at top speed. （他正以快速度奔跑。）
3）Tom is working at it at full speed. （湯姆正在拼命地干。）
4）He found the small town changing at an astonishing speed. （他發(fā)現(xiàn)那個(gè)小城正以驚人的速度變化著。）
3. Today in Britain， for example， about four hundred people a day die of heart disease.
在英語(yǔ)中die of和die from都表示“死于”，這兩者之間的區(qū)別在于：
die of 通常指因疾病、情感而死。如：
1） The lady died of grief after the death of her husband. （丈夫去世后，這位女士也因哀傷而死。）
2） In that country many children died of malnutrition. （在那個(gè)國(guó)家，許多孩子死于營(yíng)養(yǎng)不良。）
3） I'm dying of boredom. （我煩死了。）
4） Many sheep died of starvation in the thick snow.（許多綿羊在厚厚的積雪中餓死。）
die from 通常指死于意外的原因及不正常的原因。如：
1） My grandfather died from a heart attack.（我爺爺死于心臟病。）
2） She died from a traffic accident.（她死于一場(chǎng)交通事故。）
3） He is said to have died from working too hard till late every night.（據(jù)說(shuō)他因每晚熬夜而勞累致死。）
4） The workman died from the explosion.（那位工人因發(fā)生爆炸而死。）
4. Western health-care systems are spending huge sums of money on the surgical treatment of the disease.
首先我們看一下，spend…on 和spend … in 的區(qū)別。它們共同的意思是“把…發(fā)費(fèi)在…上”。
當(dāng)spend 的賓語(yǔ)是金錢(qián)時(shí)，spend on 后面接名詞，spend in 后面接動(dòng)名詞，in 有時(shí)可省略。
當(dāng)spend 的賓語(yǔ)是時(shí)間時(shí)， spend on 和 spend in 后都可接名詞或動(dòng)名詞，接名詞時(shí)意思相同；接動(dòng)名詞時(shí) spend on 的含意是“把時(shí)間花在…上”， spend in 的含意是“在…上花了時(shí)間”。如：
1）He spends nearly one third of his monthly income （in） buying books.（他把每月收入的三分之一用來(lái)買(mǎi)書(shū)。）
2）She spent a great deal of money on the new car.（她花了許多錢(qián)買(mǎi)這輛新車(chē)。）
3）He doesn't spend much time on his homework.（他花在做作業(yè)上的時(shí)間不多。）
4）She spent three hours （in ）watching TV.（她看電視耗掉了三個(gè)小時(shí)。）
我們?cè)賮?lái)看一下cost，spend，pay，take的區(qū)別。
spend和pay的主語(yǔ)只能是人；cost的主語(yǔ)是物。take在接時(shí)間主語(yǔ)也可以是人。take和cost還可以用動(dòng)詞不定式或動(dòng)詞不定式短語(yǔ)作真實(shí)主語(yǔ)，而it作形式主語(yǔ)。
pay的搭配范圍較窄，多接金錢(qián)；cost的搭配范圍很寬，除了金錢(qián)和時(shí)間外還可以接勞力、精力、財(cái)富、健康甚至生命等。
spend 可接動(dòng)名詞，而cost，pay，take只接動(dòng)詞不定式。
spend，take，pay可用于被動(dòng)結(jié)構(gòu)；而cost不能用于被動(dòng)結(jié)構(gòu)。
1）That bike cost me 350 yuan. （那輛自行車(chē)花了我350元。）
2）The work cost me a lot of time and effort.（這項(xiàng)工作花了我大量的時(shí)間和精力。）
3）Careless driving cost him his life.（粗心駕車(chē)使他喪了命。）
4）I paid him 200yuan for this painting.（我付他200元買(mǎi)了這幅畫(huà)。）
5）They refused to pay us the money.（他們拒絕給我們付錢(qián)。）
6）They spend all his earrings. （他掙多少花多少。）
7）They spend a lot of money on advertising.（他們花大筆的錢(qián)做廣告。）
8）Two hours a day were spent in practising.（每天花兩個(gè)小時(shí)進(jìn)行訓(xùn)練。）
9）The work took us a week to finish.（我們花了一星期的時(shí)間完成這項(xiàng)工作。）
10）It takes him an hour to finish his homework every day.（他每天要用一小時(shí)完成作業(yè)。）
5. This emphasis on treatment is clearly associated with the technological advances that have taken place in the past 10 to 15 years.
在emphasis的后面通常接介詞on，常用于搭配使用的動(dòng)詞有place，put，lay等 ，如：
He places （puts，lays） great emphasis on education. 他特別強(qiáng)調(diào)教育的重要。）
associate with 意思是“使…聯(lián)系在一起”，“交往”。
1）We naturally associate the name of Darwin with the doctrine of evolution.（我們很自然地把達(dá)爾文的名字和進(jìn)化論聯(lián)系在一起。）
2）They were closely associated with each other during the war.（戰(zhàn)爭(zhēng)期間，他們之間關(guān)系密切。）
3）Rain fall is associated with humidity.（下雨與濕度有關(guān)。）
4）They prefer to associate with young people.（他們更喜歡與年輕人交往。）
6. …modern technology has enabled doctors to develop new surgical techniques and procedures.
請(qǐng)注意本句中的enable 是動(dòng)詞，其用法是 enable sb. to do sth. 在詞匯部分我們已有詳細(xì)講解，再請(qǐng)看兩個(gè)例句：
1） His patience enabled him to make the child tell him the truth. （他的耐心使他能讓那孩子對(duì)他說(shuō)實(shí)話(huà)。）
2） His efficiency enabled him to finish the work a head of schedule. （他的高效率使他能提前完成這項(xiàng)工作。）
7.…it causes the costs of general hospital care to rise.
本句中cause用作動(dòng)詞，cause sb. to do sth. （使某人做某事），cause sth. to happen （使某事發(fā)生），如：
1） What caused you to change your mind？（什么使你改變了主意？）
2） What caused the boat of turn over？ （是什么致使翻船？）
1） His laziness caused him to fall behind others.（他的懶惰使他落在了別人后面。）
句中的cost 不是動(dòng)詞，而是個(gè)名詞，意思是“費(fèi)用、開(kāi)銷(xiāo)”。
1） The price is high because production costs are very great. （價(jià)格昂貴，因?yàn)樯a(chǎn)成本極大。）
2） There is no way to reduce the living cost.（沒(méi)有辦法降低生活費(fèi)用。）
8. After hospitals buy the expensive equipment that is necessary for modern heart surgery， they must try to recover the money they have spent.
本句中的equipment 是不可數(shù)名詞，不能在后面加s.equipment后面的謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞也用單數(shù)形式。
1） The modern equipment enables them to double their production.（現(xiàn)代化的設(shè)備使他們能把產(chǎn)量翻倍。）
2） They decided to buy some new equipment.（他們決定購(gòu)買(mǎi)新設(shè)備。）
3） Advanced equipment is necessary for this work.（干這個(gè)活需要先進(jìn)的設(shè)備。）
還請(qǐng)注意，recover 在本句中的意思是get back（回收）。
1） We must try to recover lost time.（我們必須設(shè)法彌補(bǔ)失去的時(shí)間。）
2） They recovered increased costs through higher prices.（他們通過(guò)提高價(jià)格來(lái)補(bǔ)償上漲的成本。）
9. In the past， people tended to think that it was sufficient for good health to have a good doctor who could be relied on to know exactly what to do when they became ill.
That引導(dǎo)的是一個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句。在這個(gè)賓語(yǔ)從句中，it 做形式主語(yǔ)，真正的主語(yǔ)是to have a good doctor. Who引導(dǎo)的是一個(gè)定語(yǔ)從句，修飾doctor.what to do 做know的賓語(yǔ)。這句話(huà)的意思是，“過(guò)去，人們往往認(rèn)為有個(gè)可以信賴(lài)的好醫(yī)生就足以使他們有好身體，因?yàn)檫@個(gè)醫(yī)生知道在他們生病時(shí)究竟該做什么?！?BR> 本課主要詞組

本課簡(jiǎn)介
心臟病在西方國(guó)家已成了健康的頭號(hào)殺手，僅在英國(guó)，每天就有約400人死于心臟病。于是人們投入大量的人力、物力施行心臟手術(shù)。心臟手術(shù)無(wú)疑使無(wú)數(shù)患者受益，但是過(guò)分強(qiáng)調(diào)對(duì)心臟病進(jìn)行手術(shù)治療則帶來(lái)了三個(gè)弊端。其一是對(duì)心臟病的預(yù)防不加重視；其二是醫(yī)療費(fèi)用攀升；其三是由于有現(xiàn)成的設(shè)備和技術(shù)，醫(yī)生們往往會(huì)給不需要?jiǎng)邮中g(shù)的病人做手術(shù)。近期的醫(yī)學(xué)研究強(qiáng)調(diào)，人們必須對(duì)引發(fā)心臟病的因素，如壓力、抽煙、缺少體育運(yùn)動(dòng)等加以重視。生活方式與心臟病之間是有聯(lián)系的，因此，人們意識(shí)到自己必須為自身的健康負(fù)責(zé)，改變飲食習(xí)慣，減輕生活壓力，減少抽煙，多多運(yùn)動(dòng)都是預(yù)防心臟病的有效方式。預(yù)防心臟病比治療心臟病更重要。
本課語(yǔ)言點(diǎn)
1. One of the greatest killers in the Western World is heart disease.
請(qǐng)注意主謂一致的問(wèn)題

B：one of +復(fù)數(shù)名詞+定語(yǔ)從句時(shí)，定語(yǔ)從句一般被看作修飾復(fù)數(shù)名詞，因此從句中的謂語(yǔ)要用復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如：
1）This is one of the best films that have released this year. （這是今年發(fā)行的佳影片之一。）
2）Mr. Wang is one of those people who are hard to deal with. （王先生屬于那種很難打交道的人。）

當(dāng)spend 的賓語(yǔ)是金錢(qián)時(shí)，spend on 后面接名詞，spend in 后面接動(dòng)名詞，in 有時(shí)可省略。
當(dāng)spend 的賓語(yǔ)是時(shí)間時(shí)， spend on 和 spend in 后都可接名詞或動(dòng)名詞，接名詞時(shí)意思相同；接動(dòng)名詞時(shí) spend on 的含意是“把時(shí)間花在…上”， spend in 的含意是“在…上花了時(shí)間”。如：

pay的搭配范圍較窄，多接金錢(qián)；cost的搭配范圍很寬，除了金錢(qián)和時(shí)間外還可以接勞力、精力、財(cái)富、健康甚至生命等。
spend 可接動(dòng)名詞，而cost，pay，take只接動(dòng)詞不定式。

9. In the past， people tended to think that it was sufficient for good health to have a good doctor who could be relied on to know exactly what to do when they became ill.
