34、southeast .央 格蘭，不列顛島上最大的一塊土地，位于這個(gè)島的東南部。（4） London lies on the River Themes.倫敦位于泰晤士河畔。上述句子中的lie作“位于”、“在處”解，第（3）句中的is=lies 。 在lies后面可以跟to , on, in等不同的介詞，以表示“處于方向/位置”。第（1）（2）句都用了介詞to表示方位，并不強(qiáng)調(diào)接壤。如果強(qiáng)調(diào)交界，則應(yīng)該 用介詞on。第（3）句中的in表示“在境內(nèi)”，“在范圍之內(nèi)”。第（4）句中的on表示“在河畔”。例如：Guangdong lies to the south of Hubei.廣東在湖北以南。Gu

35、angdong lies to / on the south of Hunan.廣東在湖南以南。（既可以用to表示方位，又可用on表示兩省接壤）Sha nghai lies in the east of Chi na.上海位于中國(guó)的東部。Nanji ng lies on the Yan gtze River.南京位于長(zhǎng)江之濱。2.

36、經(jīng)關(guān)閉了，或?yàn)l臨關(guān)閉。be about to的意思是“正要、“即將”，它是一種將來(lái)式的表達(dá)方 式，表示最近的將來(lái)，to是不定式符號(hào)，后接動(dòng)詞原形。例如：I was about to go out whe n the telepho ne rang.我正要外出，這時(shí)電話鈴響了。Hurry up ! They are about to start .快點(diǎn)，他們就要出發(fā)了。3. Gen erally ， the weather in Brita in is n either too cold in wi nter nor too hot in summer .一般來(lái)說(shuō)，不列顛的氣候冬天不太冷，夏天不

37、太熱。neither. nor是一個(gè)連詞詞組，作“既不也不”講，用來(lái)連接兩個(gè)相同的成分。例如：We had neither money nor food .我們既沒(méi)錢(qián)，又沒(méi)食物。（連接兩個(gè)賓語(yǔ)）They neither smoke nor drink.他們既不吸煙，也不喝酒。（連接兩個(gè)謂 語(yǔ)）He was n either clever nor stupid, but good eno ugh at his work .他不聰明，也不傻，但在工作上還是夠好的。（連接兩個(gè)表語(yǔ)）Neither the Scots nor the Welsh regard themselves as En glis

38、h.蘇格蘭人和威爾士人都不把自己看作是英格蘭人。（連接兩個(gè)主語(yǔ)）注意：當(dāng)neither.nor連接兩個(gè)主語(yǔ)時(shí)，謂語(yǔ)動(dòng)詞應(yīng)和鄰近的那個(gè)主語(yǔ)在數(shù)上取得一致。例如：Neither the twi ns nor James knows how to spell the word.那對(duì)雙胞胎和詹姆斯都不知道這個(gè)詞的拼法。4. Around 1850, a terrible disease hit the potato crop ' and potatoeswe nt bad in thesoil. 1850年左右，一種可怕的疾病襲擊了土豆，土豆全都爛在地里了。go是連系動(dòng)詞，作“變成”解，后面多

39、跟形容詞作表語(yǔ)，表示主語(yǔ)由一種狀 態(tài)轉(zhuǎn)變到另一種狀態(tài)，如 go bad （變壞），go mad（變瘋），go blind （變瞎）， go wrong （出毛?。?。He has gone deaf .他耳朵聾了。The childre n must not go hungry.不要讓孩子挨餓。在go后還跟與顏色有關(guān)的形容詞。例如：He went red with an ger whe n he heard the n ews.他聽(tīng)到這個(gè)消息，氣得臉都紅了。become get，go，grow這幾個(gè)詞作連系動(dòng)詞時(shí)，都可以表示“變成”，但也 有些區(qū)別：be come較正式，get和go較口語(yǔ)化。此

40、外become和get可由好變 壞，也可由壞變好，而go通常是由好變壞。例如：The situati on has become eve n better/ worse .情況變得更好/糟了。They are gett ing richer and richer/ poorer and poorer .他們?cè)絹?lái)越富了/窮了。grow作“變成”時(shí)，有“逐漸變成新的狀態(tài)”的意思。例如：My youn ger brother is grow ing tall.我的弟弟漸漸長(zhǎng)高了。5. Tens of thousands of people died of hunger.數(shù)以萬(wàn)計(jì)的人餓死了。die o

41、f的意思是“因而死”，常表示由于疾病、饑餓、年老、情感等原因引起的死亡。例如：He died of old age.他壽終正寢了。In a cold winter, many wild animals may die of hunger.在嚴(yán)寒的冬天，很多野生動(dòng)物可能餓死。The old woman died of grief soon after her husband' s death .那位老太太在丈夫去世后不久因悲傷而死。die from 的意思是“因而死”，但一般指因疾病或感情以外的原因而造 成的死亡，例如：He died from a chest wou nd.他因胸部受傷

Although many families becameseparated , people still kept in touch with each other .雖然許多家庭都分散了，但是人們還是保持著聯(lián)系。keep in touch with是“與某人保持聯(lián)系”。例如：Please keep in touch with me whe n you are abroad .你在國(guó)外期間請(qǐng)同 我保持聯(lián)系。A good teacher should always keep in touch with the stude nts.好老師應(yīng)當(dāng)經(jīng)常和同學(xué)接觸。此外還有“ get in touch with”是“與某人取得聯(lián)系”。例如：We must try to
