Section Ⅲ　Using Language 教材助读2 THE TIME MACHINE (Adapted) ①It was at ten o'clock today that the first of all Time Machines began its career.I gave it a last check, and sat myself in<1> the leather<2> seat.I pushed the starting lever<3> on the main panel<4> forwards an inch<5> then immediately backwards<6> again.②Looking around, I saw my laboratory exactly as before.Had anything happened? I thought my mind had tricked<7> me.Then I saw the clock.A moment before, it was a minute or so<8>past ten; now it was nearly half past three! ①此处为强调句，强调时间状语at ten o'clock today。 ②此处是现在分词短语作状语，look与主语I之间是逻辑上的主谓关系。 I drew a breath<9>， gripped<10> the lever and pushed it forwards.The laboratory went hazy<11> around me.My niece<12>came in to fetch<13>something, maybe her handkerchief<14>， apparently<15> without seeing me.It probably took her a minute, but to me she moved like a rocket!

I had thought about
