26 The main idea of the text
This part tells us the background of the bike trip, especially the plan. This part also introduces the four young people who made the trip: Wang Kun, the writer of the journal and his sister, Wang Wei and their cousins Dao Wei and Yu Hang. This section also introduces us to many of the geographical terms they will use throughout the later parts of their story.

27 Language points 1. Ever since middle school, my sister Wang Wei and I have dreamed about taking a great bike trip 从中学起, 我姐姐王薇和我梦想作一次了不起的自行车旅行。

a…dream (vt.) that… (vt.) come true dream

29 1) 他梦想着有一天为自己工作, 没有老板。 He dreams of working for himself and not having a boss one day.= He dreams that one day he will work for himself and not have a boss.

30 dream about = dream of 梦见, 梦想
My younger brother dreams of becoming a spaceman. He always dreams about traveling around the world.

31 2. It was my sister who first had the idea to cycle along the entire Mekong River from where it begins to where it ends.是我姐姐首先想到骑自行车沿湄公河从它的源头行走到入海口。 　这是一个强调句。强调句的结构是： It was/is+强调成分+that-/who-分句

32 如果强调的部分是人,可用who,也可用that, 强调其他成分与内容都用that。
注意 强调时间和地点不能用when或where，只用that。 e. g. It was in Shanghai that I saw the film. 区别：It was Shanghai ___ I saw the film.

33 All the members held a meeting in the club yesterday.
根据上下文和语义意图,说话人可以通过强调句分别强调主语, 宾语, 状语, 使之成为信息中心。

34 all the members that/who held a meeting in the club yesterday
all the members that/who held a meeting in the club yesterday. (强调主语, was不能换用were) It was a meeting that all the members held in the club yesterday (强调宾语a meeting)

35 in the club that all the members held a meeting yesterday
in the club that all the members held a meeting yesterday (强调地点状语,that不可换用 where) It was yesterday that all the members held a meeting in the club (强调时间状语that不可换用 where)

36 练一练 把这个句子的不同成分改成强调句。John gave Mary a handbag at Christmas. 高考链接 Was it ___ that I saw last night at the concert? A. you B. not you C. that yourself

39 1. 强调句基本结构: it is/was 强调部分 that…
2. 强调人时可以用that, 也可以用who 3. is 或was由句子时态决定，单复数不受被强调部分分数的影响。 Eg. It is they that helped me. 4. 被强调部分是主语时，要用主格，who 或that 之后的谓语应在人称和数上与主语一致 Eg. It is he that helps the poor. 5. 强调时间，地点，原因状语时，只能用that, 不能用when, where, why Eg. It was in Pinghu that I was born. It was Pinghu where I was born. 6.强调句把it is/was that 去掉后仍是完整句子。

40 3. Wang Wei soon got them interested in cycling too.

44 1) although, though引导让步状语从句不能再和but, and, however连用, 但可以和副词yet, still连用。
although从句多放在句首, though从句可在主句前，中，后任何位置，而且though可以作副词用于句末，作 “但是，不过”讲，而although无此用法。

45 [考例] ______ he has limited technical knowledge, the old worker has a lot of experience. (2006全国卷 I)
A. Since B. Unless C. As D. Although [点拨] 根据句中的limited knowledge和a lot of experience构成对比，可知这是一个让步状语从句，故用although引导。since既然； unless除非……； as 因为。

46 2) insist : declare firmly
坚持认为，坚持主张 ※insist on (one’s) doing sth 坚持做,坚决做 e.g. I insisted on/upon his coming with us. ※insist that +从句坚持说(后表示一个事实), 后接的从句用陈述语气, 既按需要选择时态。

47 e.g. He insisted that he hadn’t stolen the girl’s handbag.
※insist that sb. (should) do sth. 坚决主张做某事, 后接的宾语从句常用虚拟语气, 既 “should +v.” e.g. Mary was ill. Her parents insisted that she (should) see a doctor.

52 7. When I told her the air would be hard to breath and it would be very cold… 当我告诉她将呼吸困难, 天气严寒……
主语 + be + adj.+ to do 是一常用句式既不定式用主动形式表达被动含义,可转换为it be adj. to do sth. e.g. The problem is really hard to work out. It is really hard to work out the problem. My boss is easy to deal with.

53 8. Once she has made up her mind, nothing can change it.
这里once 一旦，连词，相当于as soon as 你们一旦下定决心，你们学好英语没有问题。 Once you make up your minds, you will have no difficulty in learning English. 区别 I have only been there once.(一次） He once lived in Beijing.(曾经） Do it at once.（立刻）
