【课文讲解】
1、When a plane from London arrived at Sydney airport, workers began to unload a number of wooden boxes which contained clothing.
a number of… 许多,若干…….
unload 的含义为“卸(货)”,它的反义词为load(装货)。与形容词uncomfortable,unsmiling等相似,有些动词加前缀un可以表示做相反的动作。
clothing服装的总称,不可数名词,在分类时强调衣服这一种类,可包括鞋、帽等;clothes一般指衣服,表"衣服"的单数名词的复数形式, 表许多衣服。
2、No one could account for the fact that one of the boxes was extremely heavy.
No one could account for the fact that… 谁也弄不清楚……这样一个事实
account for = explain= give the explanation 说明原因、作出说明(或解释),但也有区别,account 的解释必须是令人满意的,而explain 却只要是一个解释就行 How do you account for the battered car?
that后面的从句为fact的同位语从句,说明fact的具体内容。一个句子跟在一个名词后,可以是定语从句,也可以是同位语从句。两者的区别是同位语从句后的that是起解释说明的作用,而定语从句是起修饰作用;that在从句中做主语或宾语成分,则是定语从句,that在从句中不能做主语或宾语成分,则是同位语从句
3、I某人想起某事
o打开
4、He was astonished at what he found.
s某事使/让某人吃惊
5、A man was lying in the box on top of a pile of wooden goods.
a一堆……p一堆堆的雪
o在……之上(与顶端有接触面)
a在……上方(at the top of之前的词属于其之后的词的范围之内)
6、He had had a long and uncomfortable trip, for he had been confined to the wooden box for over eighteen hours. over = more than
have a trip = go on a trip
be confined to 把……起来
for在文中这里强调事实, 而非原因
7、The man was ordered to pay $3,500 for the cost of the trip.
pay…for… 为……付钱,为……付出代价
cost of… ……的花费, 费用
t开支
