【重點難點講解】

1，He was called"Bapu", meaning"father"----because he was the father of the Indian nation of the twentieth century. 他被人們稱爲"巴普"，意思是父親，因爲他是20世紀印度的國父。

2，Mohandas Gandhi was born in India in 1869 and was married at the age of 13, following local custom. 莫漢達斯甘地於1869年生於印度，按照當地習俗，他在 13歲時就結婚了。

1) marry vt. 和……結婚。用法如下：

be/ get married，表示結婚，或表示已婚狀態。如果要表示"和某人結婚"，則用"marry sb. "或"be/ get married to sb. "(不能說 with sb. )。例如：

Joan is going to marry Hubert．瓊打算和休伯特結婚。(不說 Joan is going to marry with Hubert.)

They were married at the end of the war. 他們是戰爭結束時結婚的。

---- Is he married or single? 他已婚還是獨身？

---- He is married. 他已婚。

He went abroad at the age of 24 and got married there. 他24歲出國，並在國外結婚。

He married Joan when he was 28. 他28歲同瓊結婚的。(不說married with Joan)

---- How long have you been married to Sheila? 你同希拉結婚多久了？

---- For twenty years. 20年了。(不說 married with Sheila)

2)句中的"following local custom"相當於"acting according to local custom"(按當地習俗而行事)。這是一個-ing形式短語，作表示原因的狀語。動詞follow在句中作"遵循，"依照……行事"解。例如：

Following the doctor's advice, my father has given up drinking.

聽從醫生的勸告，我父親戒了酒。

They followed the order and destroyed the bridge. 他們奉命把橋炸燬了。

The villagers still followed the customs of their grandfathers.

村民們仍然按照他們祖先的習俗行事。

3，On his return to India he had the chance to travel to South Africa to work on a law case.他一回到印度，就得到一個去南非的機會，到那裏去處理一件案子。

on his return中的介詞on表示時間，意思是"在……的時候"(at the time of)或"一……就"(directly 　after)，強調兩個動作先後隨即發生。例如：

I heard the news on my arrival at the airport. 我一到機場就聽到了這條消息。

The children stood up on the entrance of the teacher. 教師一進來，學生就起立。

On reaching the city he called up Mr Jackson. 他一到達那個城市，就給傑克遜先生打電話。

4，This experience was to change his life. 這個經歷後來改變了他的生活道路。

was to change是一個"be+不定式"的結構。這種結構通常用來表示安排要在將來做的事情(be用現在式)，也可以表示曾經計劃要做的事情(be用過去式)。例如：

The manager is to visit our factory next week. 經理將於下週來我廠參觀。(is to visit大體相當於 is going to visit)

She was to meet Mary at the entrance of the theatre. 她曾經打算在劇院門口會見瑪麗。(was to meet大體相當於 was going to meet)

但是本句中的"was to change"這個"be+不定式"結構並不表示曾經計劃要做的事情，而是表示不可避免地將要發生的事；不是指事先做好的安排，而是指"命中註定的事"。例如：

The worst is still to come. 最壞的事不可避免地會發生。

They said goodbye, not knowing that they were never to meet again.

他們道別了，但是他們不知道他們將永別了。

此外，" be + 不定式"結構還可以表示命令。父母讓子女做事情常用這種說法。例如：

You are to do your homework before you watch TV. 你得做完家庭作業才能看電視。

Tell her she's not to be back late. 告訴她，不能晚回來。

5，He wrote about socialism in newspapers and started a magazine called "Indian Opinion".

他爲報紙寫文章介紹社會主義，還創辦了一個叫《印度輿論》的雜誌。

called"Indian Opinion"是過去分詞短語，作定語，修飾前面的名詞 magazine。這個過去分詞短語相當於一個限制性定語從句 which was called"Indian Opinion"。

6，South Africa passed further laws designed to make life difficult for nonwhites.

南非又透過了一些法律，企圖給非白種人的生活造成困難。

designed to make…是過去分詞短語，作定語，修飾前面的名詞 laws。這個過去分詞短語相當於一個限制性定語從句：(laws) which were designed to make life difficult for non-whites。

design通常作"設計"解，既可作動詞，也可作名詞。但本句中的design有intend的意思，作"目的是"、"打算給……用"解，常用於被動結構。例如：

The experiment is designed to test the new drug. 這項實驗目的在於對這種新藥進行檢驗。

This weekend party is designed to make life happy for the students.

這次週末晚會的目的是使學生的生活愉快。

7，He had a gift for thinking up ways of making political points.

他有一種才能，能夠想方設法來闡述政治觀點。

think up作"想出(主意)"(think of an idea)解，有"發明"(invent)、"編造"(make up)的含意。例如：

She thought up a funny game for the children to play. 她想出了一個有趣的遊戲給孩子們玩。

The prisoners tried to think up a plan for escape. 囚犯企圖想出一個越獄計劃。

The boss didn't think up any new ways to improve the working conditions.

老闆沒有想出任何新的辦法來改善工作條件。

Children can always think up something interesting to pass the time.

孩子們總能夠想出有趣的法子來消磨時間。

8，Thousands joined him when he led a march to the coast, with the purpose of"making a little salt"when he reached the sea. 他領導過一次去海濱的進軍，成千上萬的人蔘加了他的隊伍，目的是爲了到海邊去"生產一點食鹽"。

with the puspose of作"懷着……的目的"解，在句中作表示目的的狀語。例如：

They came here with the purpose of making trouble. 他們到這裏來，目的就是爲了鬧事。

He went to London with the purpose of continuing his education. 他去倫敦是爲了繼續求學。

with the purpose of中的介詞 with, 有時可用 for代替，構成for the purpose of短語，表示"爲着……目的"。例如：

We designed the new machine for the purpose of increasing production.

我們設計這臺新機器，目的是爲了提高產量。

9，Gandhi was much more than a clever lawyer, a fine speaker, a determined fighter for human rights and a political leader. 甘地遠不只是一個聰明的律師、優秀的演說家、堅定的人權戰士和政治領袖。

more than作"深爲"、"豈只"、"不只是"解，常跟名詞、動詞等一起連用(如本句的 was more than作"豈只是"解)。例如：

They were more than glad to help. 他們是極其樂意幫忙的。

This more than satisfied me. 這使我深感滿意。

Both of them are much more than schoolmates. They are close friends.

他們兩個遠不只是同學，他們是知心朋友。

He more than hesitated to accept the invitation.　He simply refused it. 他對於接受邀請一事極爲猶豫，乾脆就拒絕了。

10，All his life he reached out for the truths of spirits and gods.

在他的一生中，他總是設法獲得神靈的真諦。

短語動詞reach out for作"設法抓住"、"設法獲得"解，其中的reach out有"伸出手去"的意思。例如：

He reached out for a book from the top of the shelf. 他伸手從書架頂上取下一本書來。

There are chances everywhere, but you must reach out for them. 機遇到處有，但靠你去抓。

Reach out for the rope, or you'll fall down. 伸手抓住那根繩子，否則你會掉下來的。

11，At the time of his death, one person praised him as follows："Future generations, it may be, will hardly believe that such a person as this walked upon this earth."

在他逝世的時候，有一個人對甘地作過如下的贊謄："後代人也許難以相信，在這個人世間，曾經有過這樣一個人走過。"

1)as follows是一個固定詞組，作"如下"解，用以引出下文。例如：

Their suggestions are as follows…他們的建議如下：……

He received a note which ran as follows. 他收到一張便條，內容如下。

2)句中的 it may be是一個插入語，它和副詞(maybe/ perhaps)在意思上很接近。插入語和句子的其它成分關係不十分緊密，常用逗號同句子其它部分分開。它不是描繪某一個句子成分，而是對全句進行說明。引號中的句子相當於： Perhaps future generations will hardly believe……

3)hardly adv. 幾乎沒有(almost no)，簡直不(almost not)。具有否定的含意，常與any連用。它的位置常在be動詞和助動詞之後，在其它動詞之前。例如：

There is hardly any wine in the bottle. 瓶子裏幾乎沒有酒了。

He hardly works at all. ( = He does very little work.) 他幾乎不工作。

They have hardly eaten anything. 他們簡直什麼東西也沒吃。

注意hard與hardly的區別：hard也可以作副詞，但意思同hardly大有區別。hard 作副詞時，意思是"努力"、"使勁地"。此外，hard還可以作形容詞，意思是"堅硬的"、"艱難的"、"艱苦的"。因此，hard與hardly決不可以混淆。例如：

The ice is as hard as rock. 這塊冰像岩石一樣硬。(hard作形容詞)

Gandhi tried hard to struggle against racial discrimination. 甘地爲反對種族岐視而進行了艱苦的鬥爭。(hard作副詞)

4) such… as像……這樣的，諸如……這類的。例如：

Such men as these are dangerous. 這樣的人都是危險人物。

He wished to be such a leader as Gandhi. 他曾經希望作一名像甘地那樣的領袖。

Such a picture as this should be kept in a museum. 這樣的照片應該由博物館儲存。

注意，在such…as的中間如果是單數可數名詞時，應在such後加不定冠詞。如such a leader as Gandhi不說 a such leader as Gandhi; such a picture不說 a such picture。

【語法－賓語補足語】

1，在一些及物動詞及少數介詞後面，直接賓語後可跟賓語補足語，構成複合賓語。賓語補足語是補充說明賓語的，它可以用動詞不定式、過去分詞、現在分詞、名詞、形容詞、副詞、介詞等充當。

He asked us to do him a favor.

On the way home she found her purse lost.

We chose Tom monitor.

He came in with a stick in his hand.

2，賓語補足語是不定式或現在分詞時，說明賓語主動支配動作，區別在於：不定式表示全過程，現在分詞只表示某一時刻或某段時間的情況；賓語補足語是過去分詞時，說明賓語是被動情況。在感官動詞(see, watch, look at, hear, listen to, notice等)或使令動詞(have, let, make, get等)後面，這三種情況都可能遇到(make和let後面一般不接現在分詞)，要具體情況具體分析；它們後面賓語補足語中的不定式不帶to，( get後面的不定式要帶to ), 但在被動語態中要帶to。

Did you notice the boys working all day long?(某段時間)

Did you notice the boys work?(全過程)

Did you notice the boys forced to work?(被動意義)

The boys were noticed to work. (被動語態中帶to)

3，有些動詞或動詞短語後面的賓語補足語多用不定式，不用現在分詞，如：ask, beg, require, want, wish, expect, invite, mean, tell, teach, show, allow, permit, persuade, advise, encourage, prefer, warn, hate, forbid, force, order, command, cause, bear, trouble, wait for, call on, depend on, would like, care for等等。

My teacher encouraged me to try again.

He asked us how to learn English.

4，有些動詞後面常接現在分詞作賓語補足語，如：keep, leave, set, catch等等。

The man was caught stealing.

The problem set me thinking.

5，在一些動詞後面的賓語補足語常是to be， 如：believe, consider, declare, find, imagine, know, prove, suppose, feel, think, understand等等。

I know this to be a fact.

We believe her to be honest.
