二、課文解析

1.Rapid agricultural and industrial development plus huge population growth has meant that not only is the amount of water taken from the river rising, but the waste being put back into the river has also been increasing. （page 38, lines 2-4）

not only is the amount of water是倒裝分句，當not only…bust also連接兩個分句, not only位于第一個分句句首用以強調加強語氣時，應進行局部倒裝。例如：

Not only did we lose all our money, but we also came close to losing our lives.

Not only does he studies hard，but also he works well.

2.The pollution of the river has resulted in unsafe drinking water which has led to health problems for people living near the river.（page 38, lines 9-10）

(1) 辨析：result in, result from,

① result in 有“引起、導致= lead to”和“以…為結局”的意思, 后跟“結果”。

If breathed in, they can result in / lead to illness or even death.

如果通過呼吸吸入，他們會導致生病甚至死亡。

Their efforts resulted in failure. 他們的努力歸于失敗。

The attack led to / resulted in the US coming into the Second World War.

這次襲擊導致美國參與二戰。

In given conditions, a bad thing can lead to / result in good results.

在一定條件下, 一件壞事可以導致好的結果。

② result from 表示“由……產生”， 后跟“原因”。

The damage resulted from the fire. 這損害由火災造成。

His failure resulted from not working hard enough. 他的失敗是工作不夠努力造成的。

(2) lead to除有“導致”、“引起”意義外，還表示“把……帶到、(道路)通向……”。

The bell-boy led us to our rooms. 旅館服務員把我們帶到了我們的房間。

3.We still have a long way to go to solve all the problems concerning the Yangtze River.

辨析：concerning，about，on 這幾個詞都有“有關”的意思，區別在于：

① concerning比較正式而已。例如：

Let me take a look at all the official documents concerning the sale of this land.

What do you know concerning / about this? _______________________________

② about則比較通俗，更加口語化。例如：

There has been much debate about prices. _________________________________

-What is this book about? _____________________________________________

-It’s about a debate about animal rights. __________________________________

③ on多用于專業性內容或較正式的看法。例如：
