You said that last time. Were going to kill you”.Paragraph 6I could see two men standing over a man lying on the floor, tied up with rope. Paragraph 7“Im going to shoot you now, the taller one with a gun in his hand said. Paragraph 8No, dont do that, said the shorter one. Lets leave him here. The steamboat will sink in a couple of hours and hell go down with it.”Paragraph 9l thought. “I have to find a way to save him!”Paragraph 10来源:数理化网We must find their boat and take it away, then theyll have to stay here, I said to Jim.Paragraph 11And then we found the mens boat tired to the other side of the steamboat.Closing down by learning about steamboatsA steamboat or steamship, sometimes called a steamer, is a boat or vessel that is propelled by steam power driving a propeller or paddlewheel. The term steamboat is usually used to refer to smaller steam-powered boats working on lakes and rivers, particularly riverboats in the USA; steamship generally refers to steam powered ships capable of carrying a (ships) boat. Nuclear powered ships and submarines use steam to drive turbines, but are not referred to as steamships or steamboats. Screw-driven steamships generally carry the ship prefix SS before their names, or TS where powered by a steam turbine. Paddle steamers have the prefix PS. The term steamer is occasionally used, out of nostalgia, for diesel motor driven vessels, prefix MV.Additional MaterialsComplete the article with one word in each blank:“Lets go and take a _1_ ,” I said.

A solution immediately suggested itself to me (= I immediately thought of a solution). I suggest (that) we go out to eat. I suggested going in my car. It has been suggested that bright children take their exams early. It has been suggested that bright children should take their exams early. Who would you suggest for the job? She suggested Paris as a good place for the conference. Can you suggest a good dictionary? You cannot suggest somebody something. Can you suggest me a good dictionary?

To our astonishment, there was a light in one of the cabins. 令我们惊讶的是，其中一个船舱里亮着灯。To our astonishment是介词短语，作句子状语。类似短语还有：to ones delight, to ones disappointment。3. And it was a gun he had in his hand.他手里拿的是枪。句子中套用了一个英语典型的强调句型it is/wasthat/who。要点提示：1）当原句叙述的是现在或者将来发生的事情用It is that的句式；当原句叙述的是过去发生的事情则用It was that 的句式。 2）在这种强调句式中，一般用that引出句子的其他部分。如果被强调的部分是表示人的意义的名词时，可以用who代替that引出句子的其他部分；如果被强调的部分是表示事物意义的名词时，可以用which代替that引出句子的其他部分。但是，无论被强调的部分是表示地点、还是表示时间意义的名词，都不可以用where 或者when 。例如： It is that man who (that) is teaching our English. 就是那个人教我们英语。It was my telephone number which (that) Miss White happened to know. 怀特小姐碰巧知道的就是我的电话号码。 It is in front of the religious leader that the bride and groom stand together to be married. 新郎、新娘通常就是一起站在宗教头领面前举行结婚。3）如果被强调的部分是人称代词，应该用该人称代词的主格形式；在口语或非正式文体中也可以用其宾格形式。 It was she (her) who told the police.就是她报告警察的。It was you who we were talking about.我们刚刚谈论的就是你。 4）没有强调句子谓语的强调句，但有其通常的强调手段：do / does / did + 动词原形 。例如： I do believe that he is an honest man. 我的确相信他是老实人。 She does like literature. 她确实喜欢文学。 They did go to see you yesterday, but failed to meet you. 他们昨天的确去看过你，但没见到你。5）What is / was What is / was 是名词从句结构，也是强调句的另一种构成形式。它常用来强调主语、宾语。如果所叙述的是现在或者将来发生的事情用What is that的句式；如果所叙述的是过去发生的事情用What was that的句式。例如：What he wishes most is to become a pilot.（强调宾语） 他最希望的是成为一名飞行员。 What interested me most in that movie was the beautiful scenery of Alps. （强调主语）那部电影使我最感兴趣的是阿尔裨斯山那美丽的风景。 What I like is her speaking manner. （强调宾语） 我喜欢的是她说话的风度。 What encouraged us was the example he set for us. （强调主语） 给予我们鼓励的是他为我们树立的榜样。4. When he heard that, the frightened man on the floor started crying.当听见那时，地上那个吓坏的人开始哭泣起来。Frightened是过去分词作定语。过去分词作定语与其修饰的词是被动关系，相当于一个被动语态的定语从句。例如： Most of the people invited to the party were famous scientists. Most of the artists invited to the party were from South Africa. 典型例题：1) The first textbook _ for teaching English as a foreign language came out in the 16th century. A. have written B. to be written C. being written D. written 答案D. 书与写作是被动关系，应用过去分词做定语表被动，相当于定语从句 which is written 2）Whats the language _ in Germany? A. speaking B. spoken C. be spoken D. to speak 答案B. 主语language与谓语动词之间有被动的含义。 spoken是动词speak的过去分词形式，在句中作定语，修饰主语language, spoken 与 language有被动关系。该句可以理解为：Whats the language (which is) spoken in German?5. By then we were a safe distance away. 那时我们离开很远了，很安全。a safe distance 是名词短语作状语。Answer the reading comprehension questions:1.

For example, the verb want is commonly used in this way: I want to go home. verb 1 verb 2 Only the first verb in the string is finite (has tense and subject-verb agreement). The second verb must be in a non-finite form, and this can be difficult for learners as there is more than one non-finite form of the verb which can be used. Commonly the form used is to + infinitive, as in the example above. However, there are some common verbs which require the -ing (present participle) form of the verb to be used in the second verb, instead of the base form. For example, the verb enjoy is commonly used in this way: She enjoys dancing. verb 1 verb 2 There are also some verbs such as stop which can be used in both patterns, but with different meanings. (we shall study these in the next lesson). Here is a list of some of the common verbs used only in the pattern: verb 1 (finite) + verb 2 (-ing form) Verbs followed by the -ing formdelayfancypostponeconsideradmitfinishimagineavoiddenyriskpractiseput offtake upgive upkeepcontinuecarry onmindregretsuggestHere is a list of some of the common verbs used only in the pattern:verb 1 (finite) + verb 2 (to + infinitive) Verbs followed by to + infinitivemanagedecidehopedeserveofferagreeplanaimthreatenrefusearrangelearnfailwould likeaskExercise: -ing or to + infinitive?In this exercise you select which is the best form of the verb to use - the -ing form or to + infinitive.1.

Today we shall talk about film. I know that you are all fond of films, but what do you know about them?Film is a term that encompasses motion pictures as individual projects, as well as the field in general. The origin of the name comes from the fact that photographic film (also called filmstock) has historically been the primary medium for recording and displaying motion pictures. Many other terms exist motion pictures (or just pictures), the silver screen, photoplays, the cinema, picture shows, flicks and most commonly movies. Film refers to the celluloid media on which movies are printed. Films are produced by recording actual people and objects with cameras, or by creating them using animation techniques and/or special effects. They comprise a series of individual frames, but when these images are shown rapidly in succession, the illusion of motion is given to the viewer. Flickering between frames is not seen due to an effect known as persistence of vision whereby the eye retains a visual image for a fraction of a second after the source has been removed. Perhaps of more relevance is what causes the perception of motion a psychological effect identified as beta movement. Film is considered by many to be an important art form; films entertain, educate, enlighten and inspire audiences. The visual elements of cinema need no translation, giving the motion picture a universal power of communication. Any film can become a worldwide attraction, especially with the addition of dubbing or subtitles that translate the dialogue. Films are also artifacts created by specific cultures, which reflect those cultures, and, in turn, affect them. Telling the class what film you would like to see, and whyA: Id like to see United 93, because the shock and awe of the September 11 attacks are revisited in this painstaking recreation of the last flight of one of the doomed aircraft. B: For me The King is the best film I have ever seen. A young man leaves the navy to search for a father hes never met and, upon finding him, begins a romance with his young daughter.
