Unit 8 First aid
一、重难点解析
1.If I had known more about giving first aid, I could have helped them. 要是我多懂得一些急救知识,我就能帮助他们了。
本句中使用了虚拟语气。在与过去事实相反的非真实条件句中,条件从句的谓语用had + 过去分词;结果主句的谓语用should / would / could / might + have + 过去分词。例如:
If the weather had been nice yesterday, we would have gone for a picnic. 如果昨天天气好的话,我们就去野餐了。(事实是昨天天气很坏。)
If I had known his address, I would have written to him. 我要是知道他的地址,就给他写信了。(事实是我不知道他的地址。)
2.on the way 意思是"即将到来"。例如:
The food you ordered is on the way. 你订的餐快到了。
We are in January now. The Spring Festival is on the way. 现在是一月了,春节快到了。
3.prevent ... from doing sth. 意思是"阻止......做某事"。例如:
There was nothing to prevent her from doing so. 没有什么事可以阻止她去做此事。
That did not prevent him from going to work the following day. 那并没有阻止他第二天去工作。
4.find后面可以跟带介词短语的复合结构。例如:
I hope to find you in better spirits when we meet again. 我希望再次见到你时,你的精神会好些。
5.Send whatever you find to the hospital to help the doctor find out what kind of poison the person has swallowed. 把你找到的所有东西都送到医院,好让医生了解病人误服了什么有毒物品。
句中的whatever所引导的是宾语从句,whatever可以引起各种名词性从句。例如:
He told me he was satisfied with whatever I had done. 他说他对我所做的事情都感到满意。
Whatever she said wasn’t true. 她说的一切都不是事实。
