llisringing.)铃响了。❷DowncameStoutSantainasinglebound.胖胖的圣诞老人轻轻一跳就下来了。(正常语序为:StoutSantacamedowninasinglebound.)(2)Therebe句型(be动词还可以替换为appear,exist,lie,stand,remain,live等表示“存在”含义的动词)。❸Thereexistsanancienttempleinthistown,whichattractsmanyvisitors.这个小镇上有一座古庙,吸引着许多游客。(3)表示地点的介词短语置于句首,且主语为名词,谓语动词是be,lie,stand,sit等时,句子要完全倒装。❹Underthattreestandsabeautifulgirlwhoisreadingabook.那棵树下站着一位美丽的姑娘,她正在读书。(正常语序为:Abeautifulgirlwhoisreadingabookstandsunderthattree.)特别提示:此类倒装句的主语只能是名词,若主语是代词,则不倒装。Outtheyran.他们跑出去了。[即学即练]用完全倒装改写下列句子①Acastlestandsonthehill.________________________________________________________________________②Anationalflaghangsonthefrontwalloftheclassroom.________________________________________________________________________③TheattractivesceneryIhadbeentoldaboutlaybelowme.________________________________________________________________________④我还没来得及说一个字,孩子们就跑开了。________________________________________________________________________⑤最后一班火车开走了。________________________________________________________________________⑥我的妈妈坐在窗边,手里端着一杯咖啡。________________________________________________________________________Ⅰ.单词拼写1.________(小说)takesupalargesliceofthepublishingmarket.2.Helosthisbalanceandfellfromthe________(梯子).3.Hewouldnotacceptthisjobforsuchasmall________(薪水).4.Ifyoudon'tconcentratemoreonyourwork,you'llbe________(解雇).5.Wehavetimeandtimeagain________(宣布)thatwewillneverbethefirsttousenuclearweapons.6.Isn'tit________(荒谬的)toplantcropsandnotweedthefields?7.Theywantahouse,________(然而)wewouldratherliveinaflat.8.It'sdifficulttopreserveyour________(尊严)whenyouhavenojobandnohome.Ⅱ.单句语法填空1.Ihavean________(appoint)withthemanagerofthatcompanyintheevening.2.Allnightlonghelayawake,________(think)oftheproblem.3.Ifeelso________(guilt)andangryaboutthewholeissue.4.Heappointedme________(meet)hisfriendsattheentranceofthetheatre.5.Germanydeclaredwar________Franceon1August1914.6.Theyusuallyhavethemedicine________(test)outbeforeputtingintothemarketalloverthecountry.7.Jane'spalefacesuggestedthatshe________(be)ill,andherparentssuggestedshe________(have)amedicalexamination.Ⅲ.完成句子1.不止一个学生知道你的秘密。____________________________aboutyoursecret.2.这样能使你以后再看笔记时更容易读些。This____________________________whenyoulookatthemlater.3.他们在欧洲开了一家唯一的商店,以检验一下市场情况。TheyopenedasinglestoreinEurope________________________________________.4.他们在那儿站了半个小时,观察着天上的星星。Theystoodthereforhalfanhour,________________________________________.5.贾斯汀建议我和他一起去一个安静的地方,在那里我们可以单独待着。Justinsuggestedthat____________________________wherewecouldbealone.Ⅳ.课文语法填空ThecompanyforwhichLarryworkedwastohaveanewlymaderobot1.________(call)Tony,whichwasgoingtobetestedoutbyhiswifeClaireathome.AtthefirstsightofTony,Clairefelt2.________(alarm).Shethought3.________wasridiculousthatarobotshouldlooksomuchlikehuman,4.________hissmoothhairandadeepvoicealthoughhisfacialexpressionneverchanged.Onthesecondmorning,Tonywantedtohelphertodress,whichmadeClaire5.________(embarrass)andsherefusedhim.ButlatershewasgladthatTonycouldmakeherhome6.________(elegance),giveheranewhairstyleandimprovehermakeup.Todecorateherhome,hecouldalsowriteoutalistof7.________(item)forhertobuy.Andfinally,TonyhelpedClairetofinis
