Unit2 Section1 Starting out & Understanding ideas(Word教参)-【精讲精练】2024-2025学年高中英语选择性必修第四册（外研版2019）

Section Ⅰ　Starting out & Understanding ideas 原文呈现 Tuesdays with Morrie Despite① being a sports journalist② with a successful career ahead of him, Mitch Albom feels that there is something missing from his life. This all changes when he is reunited with③ his favourite college professor，Morrie Schwartz. On discovering that Morrie is being weakened④ by a severe illness【1】， Mitch starts visiting him at his house on Tuesdays. The weekly conversations between Mitch and Morrie result in a series of lessons on the meaning of life and how best to live it. 【1】画线部分为“On/Uopn doing sth.”结构，意为“一……就……”。“that Morrie...illness”为that引导的宾语从句，从句谓语用了现在进行时的被动语态。 Arthur K ☆☆☆☆☆ This book is about dying, but it is not pessimistic⑤.Indeed, it was a pleasant surprise to find that this book is filled with joy and hope【2】. Morrie's bravery⑥ towards the end of his life is inspirational⑦ and has made me value⑧ my own life more. In fact, far from⑨ being a book about death, it's a book about life. As Morrie says，“Once you learn how to die, you learn how to live.” As Morrie anticipates⑩ his own death, he observes everything as though through new eyes—the things around him seem more beautiful than ever before and hold new meanings.【3】 From his window, he watches each season change, knowing it could be his last. This encourages us to appreciate what we have, and to make the most of⑪ each day. 【2】本句属于“it＋be＋n.＋to do sth”句型，句中it是形式主语，真正的主语是不定式短语“to find...and hope”。 【3】“As Morrie...death”为As引导的时间状语从句；“as though new eyes”可看作状语从句as though he is through new eyes的省略。 Amy Wang ☆☆☆☆☆ I think this book should be on all school reading lists. After finishing it, I feel I have been given a deeper insight⑫ into the world and can see things from a different point of view⑬. On the 11th Tuesday, Morrie explains that “... the big things—how we think，what we value—those you must choose yourself. You can't let anyone—or any society—determine those for you”. While we are living, we tend to get distracted⑭ by unimportant things, such as gathering material possessions⑮. I think it's important for young people to know that making a lot of money won't always make them happy, or that looking different doesn't make a person abnormal⑯！【4】 It's up to us to find out what is important in our lives and establish our own values⑰.【5】 【4】本句中“it's important...abnormal”是省略了that的宾语从句，该宾语从句中it是形式主语，真正的主语是“to know...abnormal”，“that making...happy”和“that looking...abnormal”并列作know的宾语，且这两个that引导的宾语从句中均使用了v­ing作主语。 【5】本句中It是形式主语，后面的“to find out...values”为真正的主语。 Morrie says that most people “seem half­asleep⑱”， even when they're doing things they think are important. Reading this book made me feel as if I'd been woken up from a long sleep and finally opened my eyes to⑲ the world! Marty ☆☆☆☆☆ Despite its widespread⑳ recognition， my first impression was that Tuesdays with Morrie is just made up of a collection of over­emotional thoughts and messages, many of which are repeated【6】. But thinking back, it did teach me a lesson or two. The book made me stop and think about how much I am influenced by popular culture and the importance of creating my own values based on love and open communication. Although it isn't my favourite book, I'd still recommend that people read it—after all, it is something that's a bit different! 【6】画线部分为“代词＋介词＋关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词thoughts and messages。 Vivian ☆☆☆☆☆ Warning! A box of tissues will be needed to get through this book! Morrie's reflections on love and friendship made me think about my life and all the good friends that I've lost touch with along the way. It made me realise just how much I miss them. I guess that's one of the lessons of the book—always keep in touch with the good people you meet as you go through life. Like Mitch, Morrie makes you aware that you want to die feeling that you have lived life to the full, knowing that you are loved and have loved others as much as you could【7】. As Morrie's favourite poet Auden said，“Love each other or perish.” 【7】画线部分中“that you want to...you could”为that引导的宾语从句，其中“feeling that...full”和“knowing that...you could”均为v­ing短语作伴随状语。 名师圈点 ①despite prep.即使，尽管(＝in spite of) Despite/In spite of his age，he still leads an active life.尽管年事已高，他依旧过着忙碌的生活。 ②journalist n．[C]新闻工作者 journal n．[C]报纸，刊物 journalism n．[U]新闻业，新闻工作 ③be reunited with与……重聚 reunite vt.& vi.(使)重逢，再次相聚；(使)再结合 ④weaken/'wiːkən/vt.&vi.(使)虚弱，衰弱，减弱 [构词法]后缀­en可用于构成动词，表示“使，使成为，变得”。如：shorten(使)变短，deepen加深，widen拓宽。 ⑤pessimistic /ˌpesI'mIstIk/adj.悲观的，悲观主义的 [反义]optimistic adj.乐观的 ⑥bravery/'breIvəri/n.[U]勇敢 ⑦inspirational /ˌInspə'reIʃənl/adj.启发灵感的，鼓舞人心的 inspiration n．[C，usually sing.]启发灵感的人(或事物)；鼓舞人心的人(或事物)；[U]灵感 inspire vt.鼓舞，激励 ⑧value vt.重视，珍视 下文“establish our own values”中的values作名词，意为“价值观，是非标准”。 ⑨far from(doing) sth几乎相反，远非 ⑩anticipate/æn'tIsIpeIt/vt.预期，预料 ⑪make the most of充分利用，相当于make full use of，take full advantage of ⑫insight n．[C，U]洞悉，了解(常与介词into连用) ⑬point of view n．[C]考虑角度；观点，看法 from...point of view从……角度来看(＝in a．..light) ⑭distract vt.转移(注意力)，使分心 ⑮possession/pə'zeʃ(ə)n/n.[C]财物；财产 material possessions物质财富，物质财产 ⑯abnormal/æb'nɔːm(ə)l/adj.不正常的，反常的 ⑰establish our own values树立我们自己的价值观 establish/I'stæblIʃ/vt.建立，创立，确立 ⑱half­asleep adj.半睡半醒的 ⑲open one's eyes to sth使某人长见识(或开眼界、认清事实) ⑳widespread /'waIdspred/adj. 广泛的，普遍的，分布广的 recognition/ˌrekəɡ'nIʃ(ə)n/n.[sing.，U]承认，认可 a collection of...一批…… over­emotional adj.过度情绪化的 open communication开放式沟通 get through完成 lose touch with与……失去联系 译文参考 相约星期二 米奇·阿尔博姆是一位前途光明的体育新闻记者，可他总觉得生活里少了些什么。直到和他最喜爱的大学教授莫里·施瓦茨重逢，他的心态才彻底改变。米奇得知莫里得了重病，日渐虚弱，便开始每周二都去他家看望他。米奇和莫里每周的谈话最终成为一堂堂课，探讨人生的意义和如何最好地生活。 阿瑟·K ☆☆☆☆☆ 虽然这本书谈论的是死亡，但它并不悲观。实际上，你会惊喜地发现书里充满了欢乐和希望。莫里面对他生命的终结所展示出的勇气给人很大的启发，也让我更加珍惜自己的生命。实际上，这根本不是一本关于死亡的书，而是一本关于生活的书。正如莫里所说：“一旦你懂得了怎样死亡，也就学会了怎样生活。”到了弥留之际，莫里开始用新的眼光看待每件事物——他身边的一切都显得比以往更加美好，也有了新的意义。他透过窗户看季节更替，知道这可能是他最后一次观看。这鼓励我们珍视自己所拥有的一切，充分利用每一天。 埃米·王 ☆☆☆☆☆ 我认为这本书应该列入所有学校的阅读书目。读完后，我觉得自己对世界有了更深刻的认识，可以从不同的角度看待事物了。在第11个星期二，莫里说道：“……重要的问题——我们如何思考、我们珍视什么——你必须自己做选择。你不能让任何人或社会替你做决定。”在我们活着的时候，我们往往会被不重要的事物分散注意力，例如积累物质财富。我认为对于年轻人来说，重要的是明白赚很多钱并不总能带来快乐，看上去与众不同并不代表不正常。我们应该靠自己去弄清楚生命中什么才是最重要的，并树立我们自己的价值观。 莫里说大多数人即使在做自认为重要的事情时，也是“看上去半睡半醒”的。阅读这本书使我感觉自己仿佛从长眠中被唤醒了，终于睁开眼看世界！ 马蒂 ☆☆☆☆☆ 尽管《相约星期二》这本书得到了广泛的认可，但是我的第一印象是，它只是由一堆过于情绪化的思想和信息组成的，其中有很多是重复的。不过回想起来，这本书确实给了我一两条经验。它让我停下来思考流行文化对我有多少影响，以及在爱与开放式沟通的基础上树立自己的价值观的重要性。虽然这不是我最爱的一本书，但我还是要推荐大家读一读，毕竟它是有些与众不同的！ 薇薇安 ☆☆☆☆☆ 注意了！要读完这本书，你将需要一盒纸巾！莫里对于爱和友谊的思考使我想起了自己的人生，想起这一路失去联系的那些好友，使我意识到自己有多想念他们。 在人生旅途中，要和你遇到的优秀的人时常保持联系，我猜这或许就是此书想传达给我们的经验之一吧。莫里提醒米奇，也提醒了人们：在你将死之时，要感觉你已经活得很充实，要知道自己是被爱的，也一直尽力爱着别人。正如莫里最爱的诗人奥登所说的，“不相爱即如死灭”。 Ⅰ.重点词汇 ●核心单词 1．　anticipate v．预期，预料 2．　widespread adj.广泛的，普遍的 ●拓展词汇 3．　pessimistic adj.悲观的，悲观主义的→pessimist n．悲观主义者→pessimism n．悲观主义→[反义词]optimistic adj.乐观的，乐观主义的 4．　possession n．财产，财物→possess v．拥有；具备 5．　abnormal adj.不正常的，反常的→[反义词]normal adj.正常的 6．　recognition n．承认，认可→recognize v．承认；认出，识别→recognizable adj.容易认出的 Ⅱ.重点短语 1．　be reunited with 与……重聚 2．　a pleasant surprise　一个意外的惊喜 3． far from　远不，完全不 4．　point of view 观点 5．　get distracted by　分心，转移(注意力) 6．　lose touch with 与……失去联系 7．　keep in touch with 与……保持联系 8．　live life to the full　过得很充实 Ⅲ.重点句式 1．It＋be＋n./adj.＋(for sb)＋to do sth (1)Indeed，　it was a pleasant surprise to find　(惊喜地发现) that this book is filled with joy and hope.
