读后悟考点
Ⅰ.扫词汇障碍
构词法
[教材1] To a person nothing is more precious than their life, and if they entrust me with that life, how could I refuse that trust, saying I'm cold, hungry, or tired?
entrust:en(动词前缀,使……)+trust (信任)→vt.委托;交付
熟词生义
[教材2] Though Lin Qiaozhi never married, she was known as the “mother of ten thousand babies”, having delivered over 50,000 babies in her lifetime.
deliver:[常见义]vt.递送→[文章义]vt.接生
Ⅱ.破译长难句
[教材1] To a person nothing is more precious than their life,and if they entrust me with that life,how could I refuse that trust,saying I'm cold,hungry,or tired?
[分析] 本句中“nothing(否定词)+形容词比较级+than”为比较级形式表达最高级意义;and之后的分句为复合句,其中if引导条件状语从句,“saying I'm cold,hungry,or tired”为现在分词短语作状语。
[翻译] 对一个人来说,没有什么比他们的生命更加珍贵了,如果他们把生命交托给我,我怎么能拒绝这种信任,说我又冷又饿又累呢?
[教材2] In 1929, Lin graduated from Peking Union Medical College (PUMC) with the Wenhai Scholarship, the highest prize given to graduates.
[分析] with the Wenhai Scholarship是介词短语作状语;the highest prize是the Wenhai Scholarship的同位语;“given to graduates”是过去分词短语作the highest prize的定语。
[翻译] 1929年,林巧稚毕业于北京协和医学院并获得文海奖学金,文海奖学金是对毕业生的最高奖励。
[教材3] She was more interested in tending patients, publishing medical research on care for women and children, and training the next generation of doctors.
[分析] tending, publishing和training是三个并列的动名词作介词in的宾语。
[翻译] 她更感兴趣的是照顾病人,发表妇幼护理医学研究成果,以及培训下一代医生。
Ⅲ.学表达技巧
高级句式
[教材1] To a person nothing is more precious than their life, and if they entrust me with that life,how could I refuse that trust, saying I'm cold,hungry, or tired?
[分析] “nothing is more precious than”用得恰到好处,突出了生命的重要性,语气表达非常强烈。“nothing is more than”意为“没有什么比……更……的”。
[仿写] 他认为没有什么比获得知识更重要。
He thinks nothing is more important than the acquirement of knowledge.
高级词汇
[教材2] I'd rather stay single to study all my life!
[分析] 句中用would rather表明了林巧稚从医的坚定决心。
[仿写] 刘胡兰在敌人面前宁死不屈。
Liu Hulan would rather die than surrender before the enemy.
人物形象
[教材3] In 1941, Dr Lin became the first Chinese woman ever to be appointed director of the OBGYN department of the PUMC Hospital, but just a few months later, the department was closed because of the war.
[分析] 句中使用the first,说明了林巧稚在此方面开创了历史先河,突出了她在医学方面的伟大成就。
[仿写] 看到苹果落下的人不计其数,但牛顿是第一个询问为什么的。
Millions saw the apple fall, but Newton was the first one to ask why.
动作描写
[教材4] And even as she lay dying, her final thoughts were for others.
[分析] 句中lay dying非常形象、生动,突出了林巧稚在弥留之际还念念不忘自己为之奋斗了一辈子的事业,这是让她最牵挂的事。
[仿写] 我宁愿把钱花掉而不愿把钱放在银行里。
I'd rather use my money than leave it lying in the bank.
