Lesson 8 The best and the worst
    課文內(nèi)容:
    Joe Sanders has the most beautiful garden in our town. Nearly everybody enters for ‘The Nicest Garden Competition' each year, but Joe wins every time. Bill Frith's garden is larger than Joe's. Bill works harder than Joe and grows more flowers and vegetables, but Joe's garden is more interesting. He has made neat paths and has built a wooden bridge over a pool. I like gardens too, but I do not like hard work. Every year I enter for the garden competition too, and I always win a little prize for the worst garden in the town!
    本文語法:形容詞、副詞的比較級和高級
    語法歸納:兩者之間作比較,三者以上有高。
    比較級和高級的變化規(guī)則為
    1)大多數(shù)情況下,直接在形容詞或副詞后加-er或-est;
    2)以不發(fā)音字母e結(jié)尾的詞,加-r或-st;
    3)以輔音+y結(jié)尾的形容詞,把y變i再加-er或-est;
    4)以一個輔音字母結(jié)尾的重讀閉音節(jié)、單音節(jié)詞,將該輔音字母雙寫,再在詞尾加-er或-est;
    5)三個音節(jié)或以上的多音節(jié)詞,以及部分以后綴-ly結(jié)尾的雙音節(jié)副詞在前面加more形成比較級,加most形成高級;
    6)不規(guī)則變化(需獨立記憶):
    far--farther/further--farthest/furthest
    few/little--less--least
    bad/ill--worse--worst
    7)表高級的常用格式:
    定冠詞the+高級+表示范圍的短語或從句
    This is the most difficult subject that I have ever done.這是迄今為止我做過的難的課題。
    Shi is the prettiest one of the six girls.六個女孩中,她漂亮。
    逐句精講:
    1.Joe Sanders has the most beautiful garden in our town.
    喬.桑德斯擁有我們鎮(zhèn)上漂亮的花園。
    語言點 most為高級標志,而than為比較級的標志。
    better than(比較級) more than(比較級)
    best/most+in somewhere(高級) best/most+of all...(表范圍)(高級)
    2.Nearly everybody enters for ‘The Nicest Garden Competition' each year。
    我們鎮(zhèn)上幾乎所有的人每年都報名參加“漂亮的花園”比賽。
    語言點1 nearly everybody=almost everybody,但后者包括的范圍更廣。
    語言點2 關(guān)于“參賽”的表達:enter for參加(報名) take part in參加(參與)
    join/join in參加(加入) attend出席,參加(主動去)
    語言點3 復合不定代詞作主語時要看做單數(shù)形式:
    1)everyone, everybody, everyhing;
    2)someone, somebody, something;
    3)anyone, anybody, anything;
    4)nobody, nothing, no one;
    5)each one, each person;
    Nobody wants to talk to him.沒有人想和他說話。
    3.but Joe wins every time.
    但是喬每次都拿冠軍。
    語言點 深入總結(jié)win的用法:
    1)win+sth.贏得某物
    2)win不可加sb.(對手),贏了某人、打敗某人的表達為:beat sb.或defeat sb.:
    They were defeated in the basketball match.他們在籃球比賽中輸了。
    4.Bill Frith's garden is larger than Joe's.
    比爾.弗里斯的花園比喬的花園大。
    語言點 比較級和高級一定都是在同類事物間作比較,花園和花園相比,人和人相比。文中是兩個人的花園作比較,因此than后面應用所有格Joe's.
    5.Bill works harder than Joe and grows more flowers and vegetables, but Joe's garden is more interesting.
    比爾比喬更加努力地勞作,在花園里種植了很多花草和蔬菜,但是喬的花園卻顯得更有生機。
    語言點 比較學習:plant, grow
    plant種植(強調(diào)種的動作);grow種植(強調(diào)種植以后的栽培、管理過程)
    植樹節(jié)翻譯為"Tree Planting Day"佳。
    6.He has made neat paths and has built a wooden bridge over a pool.
    他在花園里開辟了一條條整潔的小徑,還在池塘里修建了一座木橋。
    語言點1 make a new path修建一條新路=break a new way開辟一條新路=dig a new road挖掘一條新路
    語言點2 over的含義是指高于某物但沒有接觸:
    flew over a pool從水池上飛過;jump over the little bridge從小橋上跳過
    7.I like gardens too, but I do not like hard work.
    我也喜歡花園,但我很懶。
    語言點 but表示語氣上的轉(zhuǎn)折,要重讀并稍作停頓。
    I'd like to go, but I have to do my homework.我也想去,但我必須做家庭作業(yè)。(終沒去)
    He tried to climb the tree, but he could not.他盡力爬樹,但是沒有成功。(結(jié)果沒有爬上去)
    8.Every year I enter for the garden competition too, and I always win a little prize for the worst garden in the town!
    每年我也都報名參加花園比賽,但總是只獲得鎮(zhèn)上差花園獎!
    語言點1 always等表示頻率的副詞一般放在實義動詞前,如此句中放在了win之前。
    語言點2 win sth.for因為某事而贏得……
    My brother won a pair of shoes for this race.我和弟弟參加賽跑,得到了一雙鞋作為獎勵。
