    2.Though he managed to take a number of brilliant photographs…盡管他設(shè)法拍了一些精彩的照片……
    manage to do sth. 表示“設(shè)法做到某事”、“努力完成某事”,即雖然很費(fèi)勁,但仍然做到/完成某事。另一短語 try to do sth. 可表示“設(shè)法做某事”、“努力做某事”,但并不表示完成/做到的含義:
    He tried to open the door but couldn't.

    我終于設(shè)法買了一座房子。
    3.a river of liquid rock,一股巖漿。
    river在這里為比喻用法,表示“(……的)巨流”。由于 a river of 這個結(jié)構(gòu)中沒有 as, like等明確表示“像”的詞,因此,它是一種暗喻。
    When she heard the news, a river of tears came down her face.
    她聽到這個消息后,淚如泉涌。
    Rivers of blood flowed during World war Ⅱ.
    第二次世界大戰(zhàn)期間血流成河。

    threaten表示“威脅著要”、“恐嚇”:
    The forest fire threatened to destroy the town.
    森林大火眼看就要將這個鎮(zhèn)子焚毀。
    He threatened to leave the team.
    他揚(yáng)言要離開這個隊(duì)。
    關(guān)于 threaten… with,參見第62課課文詳注。
    5.to escape just in time, 及時逃離。
    in time表示“及時”、“來得及”,just表示“正好”、“差一點(diǎn)”:

    我剛好來得及趕上火車。
    Shall we still be in time for / to see the performance?
    我們還來得及看演出嗎?
    6.risked one's life, 冒著生命危險(xiǎn)。
    關(guān)于risk作為名詞和動詞的用法,參見第44課詞匯學(xué)習(xí)。
    7.any man alive, 任何在世的人。
    alive 為形容詞,可表示“在世的”、“活著的”,通常作表語。它作賓語時必須放在被修飾的詞之后:

    你祖父還活著嗎?
    Every man alive has his / her own troubles.
    每個活著的人都有自己的煩惱。
    新概念英語第二冊Lesson68課文注釋
    1.I crossed the street to avoid meeting him, but he saw me and came running towards me. 我穿過馬路以便避開他,但他看到我并朝我跑過來。
    (1)avoid 以及本課中出現(xiàn)的 enjoy, fancy, mind, finish等動詞后面只跟名詞性的賓語,即只跟名詞或動名詞:
    They managed to avoid a car crash/crashing their car into the wall.
    他們設(shè)法躲過了一起汽車撞車事故/避免了將車撞在墻上。
    (2)running 引導(dǎo)的是分詞短語,作狀語,修飾 came,表示伴隨狀況:
    She ran after the thief shouting out for help.
    她一邊追趕小偷,一邊大聲喊叫求助。
    2.It was no use pretending that I had not seen him…若再裝做沒看見他已是沒有用了……
    這句話中,it是先行主語,真正的主語是 pretending 引導(dǎo)的動名詞短語。It is (of) no use doing…是個固定結(jié)構(gòu)(其中的 of可省略),表示“做……也是徒勞的/無益的”:
    It is (of) no use worrying about your family.
    為你的家人擔(dān)心是無益的。
    3.No matter how busy you are…不管你多忙……
    no matter可與疑問詞 (how, who, when, where, what等)一起引導(dǎo)讓步從句,表示“無論”:
    No matter where you go, you can't forget your home.
    無論你到哪里,都無法忘記自己的家。
    No matter what I say, I seem to say the wrong thing.
    無論我說什么,都似乎說得不當(dāng)。
    4.I had to think of a way of preventing him from following me around all morning. 我得想辦法不讓他整個上午纏著我。
    think of在這里的含義是“想出”, way在這里表示“辦法”, a way of后面的部分用于修飾 way。prevent表示“阻止/制止”時其常用結(jié)構(gòu)為 prevent sb. from doing sth., from可以省略:
    I can't prevent you from going if you want to.
    你如果想去,我無法阻止。
    5.You're not busy doing anything, are you? 你不忙,是吧?
    這是一個附加疑問句,又稱反意疑問句,是由陳述句后面加簡略疑問句構(gòu)成。陳述句如果是肯定的,則附加疑問句通常用否定形式;陳述句如果是否定的,則附加的疑問句用肯定形式。陳述句中有助動詞時,附加疑問句重復(fù)其中的助動詞;如果沒有,則用do的各種形式構(gòu)成:
    John was angry, wasn't he?
    約翰生氣了,不是嗎?(肯定式+否定式)
    He hasn't left, has he?
    他沒走,是嗎?(否定式+肯定式)
    I can see him, can't I?
    我可以見他,不是嗎?(情態(tài)助動詞作助動詞)
    You like it, don't you?
    你喜歡它,不是嗎?(沒有助動詞時加do)
    6.Would you mind my coming with you? 我跟你一道去行嗎?
    (1)Would/ Do you mind…? 是一個用來表示客氣的請求或征求意見的結(jié)構(gòu),其中可以用if引導(dǎo)的從句或動名詞結(jié)構(gòu)。表示“同意/不介意”時,用“No, not at all”或“Certainly not”來回答;不同意時往往用一些委婉的說法,如“ I'm sorry, but…”等回答,不用“yes, I do”:
    Would you mind waiting a moment?
    您等一會兒行嗎?
    No,not at all.
    可以。
    I'm sorry,but I have to see the manager in ten minutes.
    對不起,不過我10分鐘后得去見經(jīng)理。
    (2)如果動名詞的動作執(zhí)行者與句子的主語不一致時,它前面可以加所有格形容詞或賓格代詞,作為動名詞的邏輯主語(cf. 本課語法):
    I hope you won't mind my staying here.
    我希望你不介意我呆在這兒。

    Traffic is heavier on this road than on the other one.
    這條路上的交通比另一條路上擁擠。
    2.…I began to acquire confidence.……我開始有了信心。

    3.Sure that I had passed…確信我已通過考試……
    句首省略了分詞being或feeling,在句中作狀語(與分詞結(jié)構(gòu)作狀語的情況類似):
    Interested in the story, he finished reading the book in two hours.
    由于對故事(情節(jié))感興趣,他兩個小時就把那本書讀完了。
    4.The examiner must have been pleased with my performance…主考人對我的駕駛想必是滿意的……
    must have been表示對過去的事情進(jìn)行猜測。 performance在這里表示“表現(xiàn)”、“表演”、“工作情況”等。(cf.第13課詞匯學(xué)習(xí))表示“對……滿意”時可以用be pleased with:
    They are pleased with his work.
    他們對他的工作滿意。
    The manager isn't very pleased with his secretary.
    經(jīng)理對他的秘書不太滿意。
    5.Let us suppose that…讓我們假設(shè)……
    suppose表示“假設(shè)”、“設(shè)定”時經(jīng)常用于“l(fā)et us suppose that”這個結(jié)構(gòu):
    Let us suppose that there is a forest fire.
