14 Not only was Rome a city and a republic, but it was also to become the capital of one of the largest empires in history. 罗马不仅是一个城市和一个共和国, 它还是历史上最大帝国的首都。 这里Not only…but also连接句子时, not only 可以置于句首表示强调, 这时第一分句要采用倒装结构。如:

23 难句解析 1. Not only was Rome a city and a republic, but it was also to become the capital of one of the largest empires in history.(P58) 当时的罗马不仅是一座城市，一个共和国, 同时它也即将成为历史上最大帝国之一的都城。 这是一个由not only ... but also ... 连接的并列句。

24 ⑴ 当not only ... but also ... 连接主语时, 谓语动词的单、复数形式遵循就近原则。例如：
Not only his parents but also he is leaving for Paris this afternoon. 今天下午，不仅他的父母要去巴黎，他也要去。

25 ⑵ 当not only连接除主语以外的成分时, 如果not only位于句首, 则其后的主谓需要倒装。类似的词语还有never, not until, little, hardly等否定词。例如：
Not only is Ms. Green our teacher, but also our friend. 格林女士不仅是我们的老师，也是我们的朋友。

26 Never have the students realized the importance of saving water.
这些学生从来没有认识到节约用水的重要性。 Not until I got home did I remember leaving the key in the office. 到了家我才想起钥匙落在办公室了。

27 2. What is interesting is that the other largest city was Rome. (P58)
有趣的是, 当时另外一座最大的城市就是罗马。 本句包含两个名词性从句。第一个是由what引导的主语从句, what在从句中作主语；第二个是由that引导的表语从句, that在从句中不作成分。

28 what与that都可以引导名词性从句, 但是that只起引导作用, 本身无意义, 在从句中也不充当成分；而what引导名词性从句时, 充当句子成分, 且不能省略。例如：
What caused that traffic accident is still a mystery. 引起车祸的原因仍然是个谜。 That they won the competition was what we had expected. 他们赢得比赛这件事在我们意料之中。

29 3. As early as 200 BC, the Silk Road, which was the route for trade between the East and the West, was in use.(P58) 早在公元前200年, 作为东西方贸易通道的丝绸之路就已经开通了。 本句主句为the Silk Road was in use；which引导非限制性定语从句，对丝绸之路作进一步说明。句中的as early as表示“早在……时候”, 引导时间状语。

30 The technique of printing was known to the Chinese as early as the 9th century.
早在九世纪, 中国人就已经掌握了印刷术。 句中in use表示“在使用中”, 其中use为名词。类似结构的短语还有 in trouble， in danger等。例如： Jim is always ready to help anyone who is in trouble. 杰姆总是乐于帮助那些有困难的人。

37 Part B Creating an illustrated time chart.

38 What is a time chart? A time chart should be a chart marked with time periods and important events that take place in certain time periods.

39 Example A common history between UK and France.

40 “ Down the centuries, the histories of both countries often interlocked and sometimes merged. The Vikings fought King Albert in 871 and besieged Paris in 885. William of Normandy conquered much of England in From 1154 to 1485 England was under Anjou-Plantagenet rule.

41 French monastic orders founded many abbeys and priories in Britain, including St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall, built in 1135 by the Abbot of Mont Saint-Michel in Normandy. For many years, English monarchs laid claim to much of France - a dispute resolved only in 1453 with the end of the Hundred Years’ War.

42 Calais remained under English rule until 1558
Calais remained under English rule until After the Reformation and Henry VIII , the churches in France and England took separate paths. The 19th century saw the peak of the European powers’ colonial expansion, often in competition.

43 The 20th century saw the two powers embark on genuine long-term cooperation through the Entente Cordiale.”

44 William of Normandy conquered much of England in 1066 Calais remained under English rule until 1558 UK France The Vikings besieged Paris in 885 French Founded St Michael’s Mount built in 1135 in Normandy

46 Planning Discuss and research time periods in history you are interested in. Choose one as the time period you will illustrate in your time chart.

47 Discuss the tasks for each member.
Research ________________ Write the outline ________________ Illustrate the time chart __________ Present the time chart ___________

48 Preparing Find information from various sources on the time period.
Sort the information by date. Discuss the information and decide what to include in the time chart and what to leave out. Write an outline, paying attention to the time period and its significance.

49 Producing Design the time chart based on the outline.
Proofread it and add new ideas, if any. Now it’s time for you to present your work to the class.
