9、,Korea in the east and Vietnam in the south.最鼎盛的时候,唐朝的疆域北至西伯利亚(现属俄罗斯),东至朝鲜,南至越南。剖析:as far as 远到;直到(否定句中可用so far as )就而论;就而言(作此意讲时,也可用so far as)例如:He walked as far as the river.他一直走到河边。I didnt go as far as the others.我不像其他人走得那么远。As/So far as I know,he has moved to town.据我所知,他迁到镇子上去了。2.The Tang rulers

10、 also controlled the trade route known as the Silk Road well into present-day Afghanistan.唐朝统治者也控制了被称为丝绸之路的贸易路线,该路线一直延伸到了今天的阿富汗。剖析:(1)该句中的“known as the Silk Road well into present-day Afghanistan” 为过去分词作定语,修饰the trade route,相当于一个定语从句:which/that was known as the Silk Road into present-day Afghanistan

11、。(2)be known as 作为而著名;称为。例如:Xu Zhimo is known as a poet.(=Xu Zhimo is a well-known poet.)徐志摩是一位著名的诗人。3.Trade with foreign countries created a tolerant and cosmopolitan culture.与外国人之间的贸易促成了宽容和包罗万象的文化。剖析:(1) 形容词cosmopolitan的意思是:世界各地的;世界性的。(2) cosmopolitan作名词时,它的意思是“见闻广博,游历四方的人”。4.Soon Japan and Korea

12、were organised on the Tang model,while Chinese influence extended throughout Southeast Asia.不久,日本和朝鲜参照了唐朝的统治形式,唐朝的影响传遍了东南亚。剖析:on the model of“参照的模式”。另外也要注意相关的动词短语model on/upon “模仿；以为范本”。例如:The railway system was modeled on the successful plan used in other countries.这铁路系统是参照其他国家的成功计划建立起来的。5.Cultural

13、 development went hand in hand with technological progress.文化的发展和科技的进步总是密切相关的。剖析:hand in hand关系密切地;手拉着手地例如:Power and money go hand in hand.权和钱密不可分。The children walked down the street hand in hand.孩子们手拉着手地在街上走。类似短语:face to face 面对面地；arm in arm 臂挽着臂；shoulder to shoulder 肩并肩地，齐心协力地；head to head 交头接耳地；s

14、ide by side 并排，并肩；step by step 逐步地。例如:A poem might be a way of telling someone something when you do not feel able to talk about it face to face.当你感觉不能对面对面向某人谈论某事的时候,诗歌可能是一种很好地表达方式。6.As a young man he traveled a lot and enjoyed painting and music,as well as writing poetry.他年轻的时候四处游历,除了写诗之外还酷爱绘画和音乐。剖

15、析:as well as “也,又”。该短语有两种用法:(1)用于副词同等比较,译为“同一样好”。(2)作为一个复合并列连词,表示“既又；不但而且”连接两个主语时,谓语应和前一个主语在人称和数上保持一致。译时,先译后者,再译前者。例如:You do as well as he does.你做的和他一样好。We cant expect a woman to do the housework as well as look after the children.我们不能指望一个女人又照看孩子又做家务。He as well as I is responsible for it.不仅是我,他也有责任。

16、7.But during his lifetime he never became famous;in fact,he thought of himself as a failure.但在有生之年他一直没有出名;事实上他认为自己是一个失败者。剖析:(1) think of .as.“看成;认为是”。例如:Everybody thought of that as a very funny joke.所有的人都把那看作是一个滑稽的笑话。Think of oneself as a common soldier.把自己看作是一个普通的士兵。(2)failure可数名词。意为“失败者；失败的事”。例如:

17、He is a failure as an artist,but a success as a teacher.他不是个成功的艺术家,但是个成功的美术教师。Success came after many failures.失败多次后终于成功。8.It was only in the 11th century that his poetic genius was recognised.直到11世纪他在诗歌创作上的天赋才被认可。剖析:(1)这是一个强调句型,利用强调句型可强调除谓语以外的任何成分,结构为:It is/was +被强调部分that(指人时可用who)+句子剩余部分。例如:It is

18、not only blind men who make such stupid mistake.犯这样愚蠢错误的不仅仅是瞎子。It was her that I met.我昨天见到的是她。It was because her mother was ill that she didnt go to work.是因为母亲病了她才没去上班。(2)注意强调句型的特殊疑问句的构成:When is/was it that.?Why is/was it that.?How is/was it that.?Who is/was it that.?(3)高考容易考的知识点:It is/was+序数词(名词)th

19、at从句。Its (high/about)time+ that从句。在这一句型中,从句的谓语动词常用过去式,意为“是的时候了”。It is/was+形容词/名词+that 从句。其中it 是形式主语,that从句是真正的主语。It is necessary/strange/important/natural/a pity.+that 从句中,that从句谓语动词常用should+动词原形。It is/was+过去分词that从句。常用的过去分词有said,known,thought,hoped,believed,suggested等等。通常译为“据说(报道)”。it是形式主语,that从句是真正的主语。It is/was+一段时间before从句。这一句型为“还有多长时间就”。It is+一段时间since从句,意为“自从有多长时间了”。注意:如果这一句型中since从句的谓语动词是延续性的,则意为“自从不有多长时间了”。试比较:It is
