三、重點句型
a)It was during the “March on Washington DC” in 1963 that he gave the speech “I Have a Dream”, which inspired people of all races to fight for equality. 他就是在1963年的 “向華盛頓進軍”活動期間發表了演說<<我有一個夢想>>, 這激勵著各種種族的人民為爭取平等而斗爭.
本句用了It was…that…強調句型, 強調的是時間狀語during the “March on Washington DC” in 1963.
又如:
It was last night that John wore a white suit at the dance.
which在此引出了一個非限制性定語從句, 修飾前面的speech, which在從句中作主語.
又如:
She heard a terrible noise, which brought her heart into her mouth.
b)Heat capacity is the amount of energy it takes to raise the temperature of a substance one degree centigrade. 熱能量是一種物質升高一攝氏度所需要的能量
it takes…to do…是固定句式, 可表示 “做某事需要……”之意.
如:
It will take a lot of courage to tell the truth.
it takes…to do…多指 “花多少時間去做某事”.
It took him three years to write the book.
亦有it takes…for sb. to do sth.句型.
It usually takes ten minutes for a taxi to get to the hotel.
c)What all these groups have in common is that they ask to be treated with respect, share the rights to work, good housing conditions and education and be treated equal to other people in all ways. 所有這些組織都有一個共同的目標, 那就是要求得到尊重, 享有工作的權利, 有良好的住房條件, 能獲得教育, 能在各方面與其他人平等對待.
what在此做關系代詞, 引出一個主語從句, what在從句中作have的賓語. 又如:
What he often keeps in mind is how to serve the people well.
equal to是固定搭配. 在此句中是形容詞短語, 用作主語補足語, 意為 “與……平等或相等”.
如:
Everyone was born equal to one another.
四、語法復習
(一) 情態動詞的某些特殊用法
情態動詞的一些習慣用法
1．Used to+動詞原形（表過去的習慣）， 含有與現在比較的意思，即過去做，現在不做了。
would經常和表示過去時間的短語或句子連用，或通過上下文可明確是過去的事，而 used to則不必。
如：
He used to smoke.
他過去總是抽煙。（但現在不抽了）
When he was young he would smoke a lot.
年輕時，他總是抽很多煙。（現在也許抽，也許不抽）

3．can not but +do sth.
不得不，只好
I can not but admire your bravery.
我不得不佩服你的勇氣。
I could not but choose to go
我只好去。
（二）被動語態
被動語態常用在沒有必要或不可能說明動作的執行者的句子里，被動語態由be+動詞的過去分詞構成，應該注意的是：語態變化要在動詞上體現，助動詞放在動詞前。
一、被動語態的構成：
1．一般現在時：am/is/are done
2．現在進行時：am/is/are being done
3．在完成時：have/has been done
4．一般將來時：will be done
5．將來完成時：will have been done
6．一般過去時：was/were done
7．過去進行時：was/were doing
8．過去完成時：had been done
9．過去將來時：would be done
二、被動語態的用法：
1．沒有必要或不知道動作的執行者是誰時。
Teachers are needed everywhere in China.
在中國到處都需要老師。
Smoking is not allowed here.
禁止抽煙。
Such sign can be seen in many places on freeway.
在高速公路上到處都能看到這樣的牌子。
2．似下列無主語句子已構成固定句子。
It’s said…據說
It’s reported…據報道
It’s believed that…大家相信
It’s thought that...大家認為
It’s known that…眾所周知
It’s must be pointed out that…必須指出
It is taken for granted that…被視為當然
3．漢語中，當主語泛指某些人時，往往用被動語態。
When he was asked to have a rest, he always smiled and said, “Thank you, but I’m not tired.”
當人們請他休息時，他總是笑笑說“謝謝，我不累”。
4．需要突出或強調動作的承受者時，往往用被動語態， 用“為……所，受……”詞語來表達。
The delegation was warmly welcomed.
代表團受到熱烈歡迎。
三． 注意事項
1． 注意斷語動詞和含有情態動詞的被動語態，切不可丟掉后邊的介詞或副詞。
The old man was often laughed at.
那位老人經常被人嘲笑。
Time must be made good use of.
時間一定要充分利用。
The doctor has been sent for.
已經派人去請大夫了。
The plan will be given up.
那計劃要被放棄了。
He must be prevented from going.
必須阻止他去。
2． get+過去分詞可表示被動，此用法較口語化。
He got married last week.
他上周結婚了。
The relics get damaged.
文物遭到了破壞。
3． 主動語態不能變為被動語態的情況。
（1）感觀動詞表狀態或結果時，這類動詞有：
smile, smell, sound, seem., look, remain, prove, appear, fall, turn
The milk smells slightly sour.
這牛奶有點酸了。
（2）當賓語起狀語作用時，表示重量“數量、大小、程度”時，這類詞有：
cost, weigh, number, keep, sell, drink, wash
The jade weighs one ton.
The book sells good.
（3）“主語+have/get+賓語+過去分詞”這個句型不能變為被動語態，因為它本身即具有被動含義。
I had my tooth pulled yesterday. 不能說成 I had my tooth to be pulled yesterday.
（4）當賓語是不定式或動名詞時：
We all want to be teachers.
They enjoy playing cards in the evening.
4． 用主動語態表被動語態的含義：
（1）be worth doing sth.
The novel is well worth reading.
（2）主語+want/need/require/doing（=to be done）此句型主語大多為物
The flowers need/require/want watering (to be watered).

【能力拓展】
Misery and setbacks are not always as terrible as one imagines. Hard times can offer new ways of looking at life that would otherwise never be known. And, if you are a writer, this can be the source of much of your success.
Popular British author, Charles Dickens' (1812-1870) family could hardly make ends meet (入不敷出). They could only afford to send one of their six children to school.
Dickens was not that child.
His parents chose to send a daughter, who had a talent for music, to an academy. Then at the age of 12, Dickens' life took another turn for the worse.
His father, a clerk, was placed in prison for unpaid debts. And, being the oldest male left at home, Dickens took up work at a factory. His horrible experience there became the fuel for his future writing.
His father was freed three months later and inherited (繼承) a small amount of money. Dickens was then sent to school.
From 1836 to 1837, he wrote a monthly series of stories. Thus the "Pickwick Papers" (《匹克威克外傳》), came into being, which brought fame to the 23-year-old man.
Throughout his career, Dickens covers various situations in his novels. He wrote about the miserable lives of the poor in "Oliver Twist" (《霧都孤兒》), the French Revolution in "Tale of Two Cities", and social reform in "Hard Times" (《艱難時世》). He also wrote "David Copperfield" (《大衛科波菲爾》), a book thought to be based on his own life.
"I do not write bitterly or angrily: for I know all these things have worked together to make me what I am," he once said.
His difficult childhood did indeed shape the person he became, as well as his writing career. There are shades of young Dickens in many of his most beloved characters, including David Copperfield and Oliver Twist.
Like the author, all these characters come from poor beginnings and are able to rise above their setbacks and achieve success.
"Minds, like bodies, will often fall into an ill-conditioned state from too much comfort," he once wrote.
On June 9th, 1870, aged 58, Dickens died, leaving one unfinished work. The words on his tombstone read: "He was a sympathizer (同情者) to the poor, the suffering and the oppressed (受壓迫者), and by his death, one of England's greatest writers is lost to the world."
1．The book that called public attention to Dickens was ______.
A．the Pickwick Papers B．Oliver Twist
C． Tale of Two Cities D． David Copperfield
2．The phrase “shades of” in bold means “_____”.
A．various shapes of B．situations of
C． different experiences D．reminders of
3．How did Dickens see his childhood?
A．He felt grateful for it.
B．He felt it a pity that things weren’t in his favour.
C．He loved writing about it.
D．He chose to forget the bitterness about it.
4．From the story, we can see Dickens’ attitude towards an easy life is ______.
A．to enjoy it B．to hate it
C．not to indulge in (沉湎于) it D．to work hard for it

1． A 細節題。文中 From 1836 to 1837, he wrote a monthly series of stories. Thus the “Pickwick Papers”, came into being, which brought fame to the 23-year-old man.一段說明讓23歲的狄更斯出名的作品是: the “Pickwick Papers”。
