人教版新目标八年级上Unit5单元讲解与基础操练
【重点解读】
happen用作不及物动词，意为“发生；出现”。
“sth.+happen+地点/时间”，意为“某地/某时发生了某事”。
“sth.+happen to+sb.”意为“某人出了某事(常指不好的事发生在某人身上)”。
happen还有“碰巧；偶然”的意思，常见的结构时“sb.+happen+to do sth.”意为“某人碰巧做某事”, 也可用“It happens / happened that...”这一结构来表达。
It happened that I was out when he called me. 他给我打电话时我碰巧不在。
【例句展示】
A traffic accidents happened in the street on a rainy morning.
在一个下雨的早上，街上发生了一起交通事故。
What happened to you yesterday?
=What was wrong with you yesterday?
=What was the matter with you yesterday? 昨天你怎么了？
I happened to eat up all the cakes.
=It happened that I ate all the cakes. 我碰巧吃光了所有的蛋糕。
【拓展延伸】
happen一般用来强调某事发生的偶然性。如要表示事先安排或有准备的事情或活动，则不能用happen，而要用take place。如：
A sports meeting took place(=was held) in our school last week. 上周我校举行了运动会。(不能说：A sports meeting happened in our school last week.)
