other 其它的, 加单数就表示一个, his取代the的位置语法的范围正在放宽松, his another 也对, 但不太好else 其他的,放在被修饰词的后面, 会修饰两种词, 疑问词和不定代词
修饰疑问代词:whoelse,…

【课文讲解】
1、The planewas late and detectives were waiting at the airport all morning.
all一般直接加表示时间的单数名词构成副词短语,如:all day,all night,all
week,all winter,all year等。但不说all hour。
whole在表达同样的意思时一般要加冠词或数词,如a whole day/year,two whole weeks。
all morning=all themorning
detectives 没有强调一些侦探或者那些侦探, 强调侦探这种人,笼统感念, 可不加some,the
2、A few hoursearlier, someone had told the police that thieves would try to steal thediamonds.
a few hours earlier几个小时以前
= a few hoursbefore/a few hours ago

When someoneknocked at the door, I was having dinner.
keep guard守卫
They kept a closeguard over the thieves.
at the door 在门边(固定搭配)
two others=twoother detectives
to one's surprise,让某人惊讶的是
To one’s +表情绪名词to one'sjoy/to one's excitement
be full of ...装满My bag wasfull of books.
【Key structures】
过去进行时
过去进行时的构成:be的过去式+现在分词
过去进行时和一般过去时经常同在一个句子里使用。过去进行时表示过去正在进行的动作或情况,一般过去时则表示比较短暂的动作或事件。正在进行中的动作或情况往往由连词when,while,as,just as等引导。
when,while 当……时候(强调动作同时发生)
while+从句, 动词一定是延续性动词
when+延续性动词/瞬间动词
while能用when代替,但是when却不一定能用while代替。while通常只引导持续时间较长的动作,并且主句和从句可以同时用过去进行时,而when和as一般不这么用。
John was watchingTV while his wife was talking with a neighbour over the phone.
Just as I wasleaving the house, you came in.
when也可引导较短暂的动作,while和as一般不行。
We were havingsupper when the lights went out.
过去进行时往往与表示一段时间的状语连用,如all morning,all night,all day,all evening,the
whole week等,表示这段时间一直在干什么。
What were you doingall evening? I couldn’t find you anywhere.
过去动作同时发生的时态
①过去两个动作同时发生, 习惯上一个用一般过去时, 另一个用过去进行时;动作长用过去进行时, 动作短用一般过去时; 分工的情况, 动作的开始时间和结束时间几乎相同, 均用过去进行时;
I was listening tothe radio, my sister was dancing.
When my mother wasdoing the housework, my father was watching TV.
②两个动作在同时段进行, 在不同时间结束, 先发生的动作未结束, 另一个动作发生,先发生的动作用进行时态, 另一个动作用过去时.
When I was opening
the door, the telephone rang.先开门/When the telephone was ringing, I opened
the door.电话先响
③瞬间动词(如:arrive)没有进行时态, 所以两个动作同时发生, 延续性动词用进行时态, 瞬间动词使用过去时态.
When he arrived, Iwas having dinner.
I am arriving 进行时态表示将要
【Special Difficulties】
短语动词中的小品词
许多动词加上介词或副词后就会改变词义,这些介词和副词通常被称为小品词。它们没有词形的变化。有些小品词既可以作介词又可以作副词。判断一个小品词是副词还是介词要看小品词有没有带宾语。有宾语的是介词,没有宾语的是副词,介词的位置相对固定,不能变动。
① vi.&vt.+
prep./adv.+宾语(n.)
She is walking upthe hill.
② vt.+宾语(n./pron.)+adv.
take off the coat=take the coat off =take it off
put on your shoes=put your shoes on =put them on

1、Joe Sandershas the most beautiful garden in our town.=Joe's garden is the most beautiful.
Bill's garden isthe largest.
Bill’s garden is
larger than Joe’s. (比较的东西都是同类的事物 joe’s的“’s”不能省略)
2、Nearlyeverybody enters for 'The Nicest Garden Competition' each year, but Joe wins everytime.
nearly和almost意义相似,表示“几乎”、“差不多”、“差点儿”的意思。I have nearly forgotten his name.
enter for 报名参加(各种竞赛,考试等活动)
win(won,won) v.赢
① vi. 赢I win. /Ilose. (输了)
② vt. 赢得……winsomething 后面往往是奖品,不能接对手I win the book.
win a prize 赢了奖win a
prize for…因为……而获奖
defeat+对手I defeatyou.
3、Bill Frith'sgarden is larger than Joe's.
名词加-’s表示所属关系,构成名词的所有格。这类名词往往指有生命的东西,特别是人。所有格的语法作用相当于形容词,限定后面的名词。这个被限定的名词在上下文中第二次被提到时可以省略,只要不引起误解。
4、He has madeneat paths and has built a wooden bridge over a pool.
make和build在这里是同义词,“修建,建造”。make的词义比较笼统、广泛,可解释为“做、作出、制造”等,而build主要限于建筑业,指“建造,建设,盖房子,修筑(桥梁)等” Have you made the skirt by yourself? They have made a road alongthe river.
【Key structures】
形容词和副词的比较级和最高级
比较级相当于汉语中“比……更……”这种句型,最高级则表示在某个范围“最……”的概念。最高级在使用时前面通常要加定冠词the,并有一个短语或从句限定其范围。
1、比较级和最高级的构成:
①单音节词和少数双音节词在词尾加-er,-est,以辅音加-y结尾的词变-y为-i,再加-er,-est
②以-e结尾的词加-r,-st
③以一个辅音字母结尾的单音节词要双写最后一个字母,再加-er,-est
④三个或者是三个音节以上(多音节)
比较级的构成 :
more+原级
最高级的构成 : the
most+原级
有一些双音节词既可在单词结尾加-er,-est,也可与more/less和most/least连用,如narrow,clever,common,pleasant等。
clever— cleverer—more clever
fun adj.快乐more fun (美国人用)
⑤有些构成是不规则的:
good/well(better
best);bad/ill(worse worst);many/much(more most);little(less least);
far(farther further, farthest furthest)
(farther:距离上远和更远further:程度上更进一步)
further more(更有甚者)
old(older elder,oldest eldest)
older 比……大She is olderthan somebody
elder 做定语修饰其他名词elder
sister (年长的)姐姐
2、比较级和最高级的用法
在使用比较级时,如果需要把所比较的两项都提到,那么就必须比较级后用than:
My room is cleanerthan the one next door.
如果比较级之所指很清楚,它可独立存在:
Which house do you prefer?I prefer the olderone.
最高级的限定范围一般用of,among,in等介词短语;限定范围也可以是从句;如果范围很清楚,则可以省略。John is the tallest of the three brother.
Mary is the most intelligent person I’ve evermet.
【Special Difficulties】
every构成的合成词
every和one,body,thing可以构成复合不定代词everyone,everybody,everything。Everyone和everybody一般可以替换使用,后面的代词既可以用单数,也可以用复数,但它们本身均被视为单数。
Everyone/Everybodyknows what he has to do.
=Everyone/Everybody
knows what they have to do. 每个人都知道自己必须做什么。
Everything is goingwell. 一切都很顺利。
each和every均可译为“每一个”,两者常可互换。every只能是形容词性,强调整体,常用来指一个大的、不确定的数目,不能直接做主语;each既可作形容词,又可作代词,强调个体,常用以一个确定的并通常是有限的数目,在作代词时,直接作主语或宾语,使用第三人称单数
Every/Each time I wash the car it rains.
