My First Day at Senior High
Monday 4 September
1 After I had pictured① it over and over again② in my mind【1】,the big day finally arrived:my first day at senior high! I woke up③ early and rushed④ out of the door in my eagerness⑤ to get to know my new school【2】.
【1】连词After引导时间状语从句,从句的谓语had pictured是过去完成时,表示这个动作发生在主句谓语动词arrived所表示的动作之前,也就是“过去的过去”。
【2】画线部分是动词不定式作目的状语。
2 The campus was still quiet when I arrived,so I decided to⑥ explore⑦ a bit.I was looking at the photos on the noticeboard⑧ when I heard a voice behind me【3】.“New here?”Turning around⑨,I saw a white-haired⑩ man.“Yes,” I replied.“I’m wondering⑪ what life is going to be like here【4】.” “Don’t worry,” he gave me a smile.“You’ll soon find out⑫.”
【3】该句包含了“sb be doing sth when...”句型,意为“某人正在做某事,这时……”。when是并列连词,表示“这时/那时”。
【4】句中what引导的宾语从句作wondering的宾语。life是从句中的主语,what是连接代词,作介词like的宾语,构成了what sth be like的固定搭配。

【5】该句是How引导的感叹句,同时How作状语修饰作表语的形容词true。
【6】句中的to see...earlier是动词不定式作原因状语,表示was surprised的原因。 “I had met earlier”是定语从句,修饰前面的先行词man,此处省略了关系代词(作宾语)that。
4 “Good morning,everyone.Before we start,please come to the front one by one⑭ and introduce yourself to⑮ the class.I’ll go first...”
5 “What?!” I tried to turn on⑯ my brain but the engine⑰ just wouldn’t start⑱.“I should say my name,of course.But what else? What could I say to make a good first impression【7】?Something about my insect⑲ collection⑳,perhaps.” I was organising!”.“It’s your turn my words in my head when the girl next to me gave me a nudge
【7】此处为不定式短语作目的状语。

when he introduced himself! Although I was embarrassed,his words made me a lot more relaxed.“Nice to know we share the same name,” said my new teacher.I had been too nervous to pay attention deeply.“Hi,I’m Meng Hao.” Ever
