2 Extensive reading

3 Revision Write an email or a postcard to a friend telling him about the place where you are on holiday. The place I would like to visit would be Mars. I only know that it is the closest planet to the Earth, and it is the most similar to the Earth. Although Mars is

4 the fourth closest planet to the sun, it is still much colder than the Earth. Like the satellites pictures showed that Mars has lots of craters, and scientists speculate that perhaps Mars used to be like the Earth billions of years ago. I think there is more to Mars than what the scientists

5 believe. I believe there is life on Mars. Perhaps the definition of life on Mars is different from the Earth. It could be that the life there does not need oxygen, but other kinds of gases. I would imagine that life may not be active, because Mars has been hit by meteorites and

6 the surface has been very much bombarded. So I presume the life that still exist would not be like life on Earth. I have no idea what the weather would be like, but I can presume it would be very cold, since Mars is much further from the sun

7 than the Earth. As for its special features, I think if one stands on the surface of Mars, we can see the whole universe clearer than on the Earth. And perhaps it’s a million times more beautiful than the Earth. I hope one day we can have more exploration on Mars and solve the mystery.

39 Language points 1. Some people are considered great, not just because of their achievements but also because of their personalities. 一些人被认为是伟大的, 不仅仅是因 为他们的成绩, 而且是因为他们的 品质。

40 第一, 作 “ 考虑、思考 ” 时的搭配如下 : 1)consider + n. / pron. Have you considered the suggestion? 2) consider + v-ing, 但不能接不定式的 一般式 We considered going to see the doctor the next day. consider 的用法 :

41 You must consider to tell him something about it. ( 错误 ) 3) consider + 疑问词 + 不定式, 例如 : He is considering how to improve his English. 4) consider + 从句, 例如： Have you considered when we should go there?

42 第二, 作 “ 认为、把 …… 当作 / 看作 ” 等 意思时的搭配如下： 1)consider + sb./sth. + (to be/as) + n. / adj., 例如： I consider him to (be/as) my best friend. Everyone considers him (to be) clever.

43 2) consider + sb. /sth. + 不定式短语 ( 作 宾语补足语 ), 不能接不定式的一般式 We consider them to be working very hard. We consider them to have finished the work.

44 We consider him to be the clever in our class. We must consider him to go there at once. ( 错误 )

45 3) consider + 宾语从句 We considered that the film was worth seeing for another time. I don’t consider that he has a final say in this matter.

46 as well as 用来强调 “ 前者 ”, 后者只起 陪衬作用。如果 A as well as B 短语用 作主语的话, 则后面的谓语的单复数 当与 A 保持一致。而 not only A but also B 是强调 B 。 as well as 与 not only...but also...

55 注意 : 当 instead 在祈使句中时, 只能位 于句末。 She didn’t answer me, instead, she asked me another question. 她没有回答我, 反而问了我另外 一个问题。

56 2) instead of 是介词短语, 意思是 “ 代替 ” 、 “ 而不 ”, 它后面常接宾语, 宾语多由 名词、代词、介词、短语、动词 + ing 形式充当。 I’ll go instead of her.= She won’t go. I’ll go instead. 我会替她去。

61 5. Before long, he had become a very big jazz star, as popular as major rock stars are today. 不久, 他成为了一名非常出名的爵 士明星, 像今天的主要摇滚明星一 样的受欢迎。
