Module 2　Developing and Developed Countries

　　【美文導讀】　

　　More Love for Them

　　I will never forget my experience in Africa.When I

　　came into the orphanage(孤兒院)，the children had big smiles on their faces，but behind the smiles I could see the hurt in their eyes.

　　They told me of their dreams for the future，but their future looked dim from their present situation.Before I came here I imagined an orphanage with lovely beds，a dining hall，and a playground where the children could enjoy themselves.But the reality was far from my imagination.The orphanage only had four rooms.These little boys and girls piled into the same beds in the rooms.And the rooms were very small and they didn't even have real doors.They were shabbily dressed(衣衫襤褸) and their fingers were as thin as sticks.It was hard to imagine that something we could only see on TV at home really happened in this orphanage.

　　I talked to a volunteer who was cooking for the children.When she talked of the terrible situation of these children，I saw tears in her eyes.Seeing this，I felt strongly something needed to be done.I shouldn't sit at

　　my home in the United States and avoid all of the hurt that went on in the world.These children faced not only poor living conditions，but a lack(缺乏) of health care and education as well.Volunteers were important to them.

　　In fact，there are many children who are suffering a lot.At least，they

　　need a teacher that can teach them basic knowledge，and a nurse that can provide them with basic health care.But even volunteers like

　　me，who have nothing really specific to offer，are a great help.Sometimes these children just need someone to talk to.They need to build

　　confidence and learn to support themselves when they grow up.The most important thing is that they need love.Dear friends，please give a helping hand to them.Every child should enjoy the blue sky just

　　as you do.

　　完成句子

　　for a new suit.

　　單句改錯

　　.

　　【答案】　measured改為measuring

　　2．Norway is at the top of the list，while the US is at number 7.(教材P12)挪威高居榜首，而美國名列第7。

　　本句while在此意為“而，卻”，為并列連詞，表對比，具有輕微轉折的含義。

　　Mother is busy cooking while Father is watching TV after work.下班后，媽媽忙于做飯而爸爸在看電視。

　　while作連詞的其他用法：

　　①while意為“當……的時候”，引導時間狀語從句時，從句中的動詞是延續性動詞。

　　②while意為“雖然，盡管”，引導讓步狀語從句。

　　While the discussion was still going on, George came in.當討論還在進行時，喬治走了進來。

　　While I admit his good points，I can see his shortcomings.盡管我承認他的優點，但我還是能看到他的缺點。

　　【對接高考】

　　some are shy，yet they can be good friends with one another.

　　A．whileB．although

　　C．so D．as

　　【解析】　考查連詞。句意：在學校，有的學生很活躍而有的很靦腆，但他們能成為好朋友。while在此作并列連詞，意為“而，卻”，表示對比。

　　【答案】　A

　　翻譯句子

　　①我喜歡彈鋼琴，而我弟弟喜歡踢足球。

　　【答案】　I like playing the piano，while my brother enjoys playing football.

　　單項填空

　　②Mary made coffee

　　her guests were finishing their meal.

　　A．so that　B．although

　　C．while

　　D．as if

　　【解析】　句意：當客人們快要吃完飯的時候瑪麗煮了咖啡。so that引導目的狀語從句或結果狀語從句；although引導讓步狀語從句；as if引導方式狀語從句，均不符合句意。由句意可知應選while，意為“當……的時候”。

　　【答案】　C
