(Curtain) JUST A BROTHER 1 It was the final① part of the 2016 World Triathlon Series② in Mexico.With just 700 metres to go【1】，Alistair Brownlee was in third place③ and his younger brother，Jonny，was in the lead④.Alistair pushed himself towards the finish line⑤ in the burning⑥ heat，but as he came round the corner【2】，he saw his brother about to fall onto the track⑦【3】.Alistair had to choose —brotherly⑧ love，or a chance to win the race【4】？ 【1】此处为“with＋宾语＋不定式”复合结构。 【2】此处为as引导的时间状语从句，as在此意为“当……时”。 【3】此处为“see＋宾语＋宾补”结构。be about to do sth即将做某事，about为形容词，about to fall onto the track为形容词短语作宾语补足语。 【4】此处为不定式短语作后置定语，修饰 chance。 2 For Alistair，the choice was clear.His brother was in trouble⑨.He had to help.Alistair ran towards Jonny，caught him and started pulling him towards the finish line.Alistair then pushed his brother over the line.The move⑩ put Jonny in second place and Alistair himself in third.It was an unexpected⑪ end to the race，but Alistair did not want to discuss it with the media⑫.He just wanted to see his younger brother，who had been rushed to⑬ the medical area. 3 The Brownlee brothers have been doing triathlons since they were children【5】.“Obviously⑭，when your older brother is doing it，you think it’s a cool thing to do，” says Jonny.Alistair says that they encourage⑮ each other as much as they can⑯ when they train.Despite⑰ arguments⑱ over “stupid things” now and then⑲，Alistair agrees that having a brother is an advantage⑳【6】. “Throughout my entire life，I’ve had my brother trying to beat me at everything I do 【7】.It has been an enormously positive force.” 【5】since在此引导时间状语从句，从句用一般过去时，主句用现在完成进行时。 【6】此处为v.-ing短语作主语，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。 【7】此处属于“have sb doing”结构，表示“使某人一直做某事”。I do为省略了关系代词that的定语从句，修饰先行词everything。 4 Watched by millions【8】，the ending to the race has divided opinions：should the brothers have been disqualified or highly praised for their actions? But for Alistair，his decision was easy to explain【9】：“Mum wouldn’t have been happy if I’d left Jonny behind【10】.” At that moment，he was no longer an athlete aiming for a medal【11】—he was just a brother. 【8】Watched by millions为过去分词短语作状语。 【9】此处属于“主语＋ be＋ adj.＋不定式”结构。 【10】此处表示的是与过去事实相反的假设，主句谓语形式为would have done，从句谓语形式为had done。 【11】此处为现在分词短语作后置定语，修饰 athlete。 二、课文研习： 第一部分：教材原句重点解析 1.

But for Alistair，his decision was easy to explain【9】：“Mum wouldn’t have been happy if I’d left Jonny behind【10】.” At that moment，he was no longer an athlete aiming for a medal【11】—he was just a brother. 【8】Watched by millions为过去分词短语作状语。 【9】此处属于“主语＋ be＋ adj.＋不定式”结构。 【10】此处表示的是与过去事实相反的假设，主句谓语形式为would have done，从句谓语形式为had done。 【11】此处为现在分词短语作后置定语，修饰 athlete。 二、课文研习： 第一部分：教材原句重点解析 1.
