选自外研版新教材必修第一册Unit 1 ◎ My First Day at Senior High Monday 4 September After I had pictured① it over and over again② in my mind, the big day finally③ arrived：my first day at senior high④！ I woke up⑤ early and rushed out of the door in my eagerness⑥ ①to get to know my new school. ①不定式短语作后置定语。 The campus⑦ was still quiet when I arrived, so I decided to explore⑧ a bit. ②I was looking at the photos on the noticeboard when I heard a voice behind me.“New here？”③Turning around⑨， I saw a white­haired man.“Yes，” I replied.“I'm wondering what life is going to be like here”.“Don't worry，” he gave me a smile.“You'll soon find out⑩.” ②本句为“sb was/were doing sth when...”句型，意为“某人正在做某事，这时……。”，when为并列连词。 ③Turning around为现在分词短语作时间状语。 How true these words were! When my English teacher stepped into⑪ the classroom, I was surprised to see the same man I had met earlier. “Good morning, everyone. Before we start, please come to the front one by one⑫ and introduce yourself to the class.I'll go first...” “What？！” I tried to turn on my brain⑬ but the engine⑭ just wouldn't start.“I should say my name, of course.But what else? What could I say to make a good first impression⑮？ Something about my insect collection, perhaps.” I was organising⑯ my words in my head when the girl next to me gave me a nudge.“It's your turn！” ④With butterflies in my stomach⑰， I breathed deeply.“Hi, I'm Meng Hao.” Everyone started laughing.I looked at them in panic⑱.“Nice to know we share the same name，” said my new teacher.I had been too nervous to pay attention when he introduced himself! Although I was embarrassed⑲， his words made me a lot more relaxed! ④“with＋宾语＋介词短语(作宾补)”为with复合结构。 When we had all introduced ourselves, Mr Meng said，“Well done, everyone! I know this isn't easy for many of you.But this is just the kind of thing you are going to face at senior high.Challenges⑳ like this might sometimes put you under pressure.But it all depends onB21 ⑤what you do.
