Language Points: 1 Besides my major task as a computer science student, I have lots of hobbies as extracurricular activities. 此句中besides的意思是“除??外”,与in addition to为同义词,但注意和except的区别: besides和except都含“除??外”的意思。 besides 指“除??外, 另外还有”, 着重“另外还有”。 except 的含义是“从整体里减去一部分”, 因为“所说的道理或事实不能适用于 那部分”, 着重于“排除在外”。 e.g. I have five other books besides this. 除这本以外, 我还有五本别的书。 e.g. We all went there except Xiao Li. 除了小李以外, 我们都到那儿去了。 2 During traveling I would not only check out famous natural views or landmarks,but also try to get a glimpse of what the local people’s lives look like. 此句中what the local people’s lives look like 为介词后的宾语从句。注意look like和look+adj.的区别。look like+n. 表示“看起来像??”,而look+adj.表示“看起来或看上去??”。如:The new building looks like a bird nest. 那座新楼看起来像鸟巢。She still looks
quite young and energetic in such an age. 她在这样的年龄仍然看上去很年轻,且精力充沛。 3 I love music and also see it as a source of spiritual energy. force, power, energy, strength这组同义词的含义都与“力”有关。 近义词辨析: 4You watch it, and you feel something, which can touch deep to your heart, and make you feel happy then, because of feeling the fortune of having not been in that way. 此句中which can touch deep to your heart, and make you feel happy then为非限制性定语从句,修饰something。which引导非限制性定语从句时,有时可指代前面一句话。如:He left without saying goodbye, which made his parents sad. 他没告别就走了,惹得父母很伤心。 because of 表示原因,后面跟名词短语,because表示原因,后面跟状语从句。如:He didn’t come to the party because of the rain. He didn’t come to the party because it was raining.他没来参加晚会是因为当时在下雨。 5I always recommend the film: Requiem for a Dream, which I see as a classic of tragedy. 此句中 which I see as a classic of tragedy为非限制性定语从句,修饰Requiem for a Dream。 Step IV Homework Activity 1,4,5 of text A
