truth in both these pictures, but few us have had the opportunity to find out. Two men who recently spent five days on a coral island wished they had stayed there longer. They were taking a badly damaged boat from the Virgin Islands to Miami to have it repaired. During the journey, their boat began to sink. They quickly loaded a small rubber dinghy with food, matches, and cans of beer and rowed for a few miles across the Caribbean until they arrived at a tiny coral island. There were hardly any trees on the island and there was no water, but this did not prove to be a problem. The men collected rainwater in the rubber dinghy. As they had brought a spear gun with them, they had plenty to eat. They caught lobster and fish every day,and, as one of them put it ‘a(chǎn)te like kings’. When a passing tanker rescued them five days later, both men were genuinely sorry that they had to leave. 新概念英語3逐句精講: of us have formed an unrealistic picture of life on a desert island. 我們許多人對于荒島生活有一種不切實際的想法?! ≌Z言點1:句子結構分析:用現(xiàn)在完成時have formed強調(diào)結果“已經(jīng)形成”。Of life on a desert island作picture的定語?! ≌Z言點2:優(yōu)秀寫作短語總結: a picture 形成一種想法 a picture 畫一幅畫 a picture 照一張相 sometimes imagine a desert island to be a sort of paradise where the sun always shines. 我們有時想象荒島是陽光終日普照的天堂?! ≌Z言點:句子結構分析:關系副詞where引導定語從句,修飾paradise。 there is simple and good. 在那里,生活簡單又美好?! ≌Z言點1:句子結構分析:本句中的there是副詞,在此作后置定語,修飾life?! ≌Z言點2:本句適合模仿寫作: 寫作1:Learning there is exciting and joyful. 在那里,學習讓人既興奮又開心?! 懽?:Life in Hangzhou of China is fortable and joyous. 在中國杭州的生活是舒適而快樂的?! ?.
