Section Ⅰ　Reading and Thinking 教材助读1 SATISFACTION<1>GUARANTEED<2>(Adapted<3>) Larry Belmont worked for a company that made robots.Recently it had begun experimenting with<4> a household robot.It was going to be tested out<5> by Larry's wife, Claire. Claire didn't want the robot in her house, especially ①as her husband would be away on a business trip<6> for three weeks，but Larry persuaded<7> her that the robot wouldn't harm her or allow her to be harmed.It would be a bonus<8>．However, when she first saw the robot, she felt alarmed<9>．His name was Tony.He seemed more like<10> a human than a machine.He was tall and handsome with smooth hair and a deep voice, although his facial expression never changed. ①此处是as引导的时间状语从句，as在此意为“当……的时候”。 On the second morning, Tony brought her breakfast and then asked her ②whether she needed help dressing<11>.She felt embarrassed<12> and quickly told him to go.Now she was being looked after by a robot that looked so human, and it was disturbing<13>． ②此处的whether引导宾语从句。 One day, Claire mentioned that she didn't think she was clever.Tony said that she must feel very unhappy ③to say that.④Claire thought it was ridiculous<14> that she was being offered sympathy<15> by a robot, but she gradually admired his wisdom<16> and integrity<17> and began to trust him.He always treated her with dignity<18>．She told him ⑤how she was unhappy that her home wasn't elegant<19> enough for Larry, who wanted to improve his social position<20> with a bigger salary<21>.She wasn't like Gladys Claffern, one of the richest and most powerful women around. ③动词不定式短语to say that作原因状语。 ④此处it作形式主语，真正主语是that引导的名词性从句。 ⑤how引导宾语从句；that引导原因状语从句，常跟在情感类形容词后；who引导非限制性定语从句，修饰Larry。 As a favour<22>， Tony promised to help Claire make herself more beautiful and her home more elegant.So Claire borrowed some library books for him to read, or rather<23>， scan<24>. She looked at his fingers with wonder<25> as they turned each page.How absurd<26>， she thought.He was just a machine. Tony gave Claire a new hairstyle and improved her makeup<27>．⑥As he was not allowed to accompany<28> her to the shops, he wrote out a list of things that he would need for his work on the house.Claire went downtown and bought these things.She had an appointment<29> to paint her nails<30>， then she went into an expensive clothes shop.The saleswoman<31> there was rude to her, so she rang Tony and told him she was being treated badly.He spoke to the woman，⑦who immediately changed her attitude.Claire thanked Tony，⑧telling him that he was a “dear”.As she turned around<32>，⑨there stood Gladys Claffern.⑩How awful<33> to be discovered by her, Claire thought.By the look on her face, Claire knew that Gladys thought they were in a relationship<34>．After all<35>， she knew Claire's husband's name was Larry, not Tony.Although it was completely innocent<36>， Claire felt guilty<37>． ⑥as引导原因状语从句；that引导定语从句，修饰things。 ⑦who引导非限制性定语从句，修饰the woman。 ⑧现在分词结构作伴随状语。 ⑨此处使用了全部倒装语序。 ⑩此处是how引导的感叹句的省略，其完整语句是How awful it was to be discovered by her! When Claire got home, she wept<38>．Gladys was everything Claire wished to be.Tony told her she ⑪was being sensitive<39> and was just as good as Gladys.He ⑫suggested that she invite Gladys and her friends to the house the night before he was to leave and Larry was to return.By that time, Tony expected that the house，⑬which was being completely transformed<40>, would be ready. ⑪此处属于“be＋being＋形容词”结构，该结构常用来表达被陈述对象行为反常(暂时的特点或表现)以及说话人的惊讶、不满、责备等情绪。 ⑫此句中suggested在此意为“建议”，其后的宾语从句要用虚拟语气，即宾语从句的谓语要用“should＋动词原形”，should可以省略。was to leave和was to return都表示对过去将来时间的安排，属于be to do结构。 ⑬which引导非限制性定语从句，修饰the house。 Tony worked steadily<41> on the improvements.Claire tried to help by working on a light ⑭suspended<42> from the ceiling<43>, but she fell off<44> the ladder<45>．⑮Even though Tony had been in the next room, he managed to catch her in time.As he held her, she felt the warmth of his body.She screamed<46>， pushed him away, and ran to her room. ⑭过去分词短语作后置定语，修饰a light, light与suspend之间为逻辑上的动宾关系。 ⑮此处为even though引导的让步状语从句。 The night of the party arrived.The clock struck<47> eight.⑯The guests would be arriving soon, so Claire dismissed<48> Tony for the rest of the night.At that moment, Tony took her in his arms<49>， ⑰bringing his face close to hers.She ⑱heard him declare<50> that he did not want to leave her the next day, and that he felt more than just the desire<51> to please<52> her.Then the front door bell rang. ⑯此处为“主语＋would/should＋be＋doing”构成的过去将来进行时，可表示在过去某一时间之后即将进行的动作，或表示在过去将来的某一时间正在发生的动作。 ⑰此处是现在分词短语，表示伴随动作。 ⑱heard him declare属于“hear sb do”结构，其中do是不带to的动词不定式作宾语补足语，表示动作发生的全过程。两个that引导宾语从句，第二个that不能省略。 <1>satisfaction n．[U，C]满意；满足；令人满意的事 <2>guarantee vt.& n．[C]保证；担保 under guarantee在保修期内 <3>adapt vt.改编，改写 <4>experiment with…用……做实验，试用…… <5>test out检验；测试 <6>on a business trip出差 <7>persuade vt.使相信；使信服 <8>bonus/ˈbəʊnəs/n.[C]意外收获；奖金；红利 <9>feel alarmed感到害怕 alarm vt.使惊恐；使担心 alarming adj.令人担忧的；令人恐慌的 <10>more like更像是；更接近 more like A than B更像A而不像B <11>help dressing属于“help (in) doing sth”的用法，help是名词，作动词needed的宾语。 <12>embarrassed adj.尴尬的，窘迫的 embarrass vt.使窘迫；使尴尬 embarrassing adj.令人尴尬的 <13>disturbing adj.令人不安的；引起烦恼的 disturb vt.打扰；使不安；弄乱 disturbed adj.心神不安的；烦恼的 <14>ridiculous/rIˈdIkjələs/adj.愚蠢的；荒谬的；荒唐的 <15>sympathy n．[U]同情 feel sympathy for对……感到同情 out of sympathy出于同情 <16>wisdom n．[U]智慧；明智 <17>integrity /Inˈteɡrəti/n．[U]诚实正直；完整；完好 <18>dignity/ˈdIɡnəti/n．[U]庄重；庄严；尊严 with dignity有尊严地 <19>elegant adj.漂亮雅致的；优美的；高雅的 <20>social position社会地位 <21>salary/ˈsæləri/n.[C，U]薪水；薪金 big salary高薪 <22>favour n．[C]帮助；恩惠 do sb a favour帮某人的忙 <23>or rather更准确地说，更确切地说 <24>scan vt.浏览；翻阅 <25>with wonder惊奇地 <26>absurd/əbˈsɜːd/adj.荒谬的；荒唐的 <27>makeup n．[U]化妆品 [区别]make up化妆；构成；编造；弥补 <28>accompany vt.陪伴 <29>appointment/əˈpɔIntmənt/n.[C，U]预约；约会；委任 have an appointment约会 <30>nail/neIl/n.[C]指甲；趾甲；钉子 vt.(用钉子)钉牢；固定 <31>saleswoman/ˈseIlzwʊmən/n.[C]女售货员；女推销员 salesman/ˈseIlzmən/n.
