二、【重点与难点】

    L.13

1. I want to have a look at what‘s on this weekend. 我想看看本周周末上演的什么。

    句中的What’s on this weekend是名词性从句，在句中作短语动词look at的宾语。what‘s on…？是一个固定的表达方式，后跟时间或地点状语，表示“……（时间/地点）上演什么？”on在此是作为副词用的，应重读。on是一个十分活跃的词，作为介词用时，它也可以表示类似的形容词所表示的意思，表示“在……进行之中”例如：What’s on at the New Star Cinema tonight? 今晚新星电影院上演什么？

        Is there a new film on lately? 最近上演什么新电影了吗？

        My parents are on their holidays. 我父母亲正在度假。

        They are on a friendly visit to our country. 他们正在对我国进行友好访问。

2. Is there anything good on? 有什么好节目在上演吗？

    句中的good是不定代词anything的定语。当形容词作定语修饰象something, anything, nothing这类不定代词时，要把形容词放在这类不定代词之后。例如：

        There is nothing important in today‘s newspaper. 今天报上没有什么重要消息。

        Do you have anything interesting to tell us?你有什么有趣的事要告诉我的吗？

3. They are said to be very good. 据说他们很棒。

        a. 句中的they指的是前一句中的a pop group（流行音乐演唱团）。

        b. 不定式短语to be very good在句中作主语补足语，说明主语（they）的情况。全句相当于：People say they are very good.或It is said that they are very good.在此，句型sb. is said to do和It’s said (或They / People say )+that从句所表示的意思是相同的，可以相互替换。作“据说……”，“听说……”解。例如：It‘s said he works for China Daily (=He is said to work for China Daily.)据说他在《中国日报》社工作。

        It’s said the bridge is now over 700 years old. (=The bridge is said to be over 700 years old.)据说这座桥已有七百多年历史了。

    L.14

1. Reporters are then sent to cover the events.然后记者就被派去采访这些事件。

    句中的cover是动词，作“采访”、“报道”解。例如：

        The experienced reporters were sent to cover the confrence. 有经验的记者被派去报导大会的消息。

        All important events in this area are covered in the local newspapers.

    这个地区发生的重要事件，地方的报纸都有报道。

        cover是一个十分活跃的词，既可以用作名词，也可以用作动词，翻译时也十分灵活，可以根据在句中的意思灵活翻译。例如：

    用作名词时，作“盖子”，“封面”解。

        The magazine had a picture of a horse on the cover. 这本杂志封面上画着一匹马。

        Our desks and chairs are fitted with loose covers. 我们的桌椅均配有桌套和椅套。

    用作动词时，就十分灵活了。请看下面的句子：

        She covered her knees with a blanket. 她把毯子盖在膝盖上。

        I was covered in/with mud by a passing car. 一辆过路的汽车溅了我一身泥。

        His lecture covered the subject thoroughly. 他的演讲对这个问题阐述得很透彻。

        The soldiers can cover the distance on foot in an hour. 士兵们可以在一小时内走完这段路程。

        Is that word covered in the dictionary? 这部词典里有那个单词吗？

2. As soon as the reporters know what to write about, they get down to work. 新闻记者一旦得知他们所要写的新闻，就着手干起来。

    句中的短语动词get down to sth, 作“开始干某事”解，（相当于to begin to do /doing sth.）其中的to是介词，后接名词，代词或～ing形式。例如：

        It‘s time I got down to some serious work. 我该认真干点正事了。

        When you get down to something, you should work hard. 当你着手做些事的时候，你应该努力地去做。

        While the weather was fine, my father got down to repairing the house. 趁着天气好，我父亲开始修理房屋了。

3.They telephone people and fix a time for a face-to -face interview with them. 他们同有关人士打电话，约定时间同他们进行面对面的采访。

   a.句中的face-to -face是一个固定词组，意思是“面对面”，在句中作定语，修饰名词interview.例如：

        It’s hard for them to have a face-to -face argument. 进行面对面的争论对他们来说不容易。

    需要注意的是，如果face to face不连写时，作状语用，意思是“面对面地”，“面对着”，“碰面”。例如：

        The hospital and the food store stand face to face. 那家医院正对着食品店。

        I‘ve heard of the famous professor, but I never met him face to face. 我听说过那位著名的教授，但是从没和他见过面。

    除了这一词组外，类似还有一些，如：heart to hear心连心，贴心的，hand in hand手拉手，arm in arm臂挽臂shoulder to shoulder肩并肩。

   b.句中的fix是动词，作“确定”，“约定”解。fix a time for…是“约定时间干某事”的意思。例如：

   Have you fixed a date for the wedding?你们举行婚礼的日子确定了吗？

        The lecture was fixed for eight o’clock in the morning. 报告会定于早八点举行。

        fix还有“修理”“修补”的意思，请看下现的句子：

        My watch has stopped. I‘ll have it fixed. 我的手表停了，我要去修理了。
