Section Ⅳ Reading for Writing,Assessing Your Progress & Video Time
Good morning! My name is Sarah Williams. It's an honour to be here and to share with you the story of how music has had an impact on my life. ①
[①本句是主从复合句。主句使用了固定句型“It is+n.+to do sth.”,其中it是形式主语,to do sth.是真正的主语,本句中to be here和to share with...是并列的不定式短语作真正的主语;how music has had an impact on my life是how引导的宾语从句,作介词of的宾语。]
Have you ever faced a time when things looked dark and you had no hope at all? ② Two years ago, I was told I had a serious disease which was difficult to cure. ③ My body ached all the time and thus I thought I didn't have much longer to live. I was very afraid and I felt so alone and discouraged. Then one day, I had to go through a twohour medical treatment. The doctor wanted me to relax, so he had me listen to some music, and one of the songs was “Happy”. ④ The song made me feel so much better that from then on I began to listen to music all the time. ⑤John A.Logan said,“Music is the medicine of the mind.” And it's true. Music helped me recover.
[②本句是主从复合句。when引导定语从句,修饰先行词a time。
③本句是主从复合句。told后的部分是宾语从句,其中which was difficult to cure是which引导的定语从句,修饰先行词a serious disease。
④本句是并列复合句。其中had me listen to...是“使役动词have+宾语+省略to的不定式”结构。
⑤本句是主从复合句。made me feel是“使役动词make+宾语+省略to的不定式”结构,在该结构里使用了so...that...句型。]
Music gave me happiness. When I listened to music, it made my spirits fly like a kite in the wind. Music gave me strength and brought me relief. It was the rock I leant on to become strong and to get through those hard times. Moreover, music gave me hope and a sense of satisfaction. It became my best friend. It spoke words of encouragement to the deepest part of my being.
Of course, I hope none of you have to go through the same kind of suffering that I did. ⑥ At the same time, we all go through various periods when we feel sad or alone. ⑦ During those times, music can help you in the same way that it helped me. ⑧I hope all of you will somehow begin to treasure music and make it a part of your life.
[⑥本句是主从复合句。hope后是宾语从句;that I did是定语从句,修饰先行词suffering。
⑦本句是主从复合句。when 引导定语从句,修饰periods。
⑧本句是主从复合句。that it helped me是定语从句,修饰先行词way。]
早上好,我叫萨拉·威廉姆斯。很荣幸在这里和你们分享音乐是如何对我的生活产生影响的。
你曾经有过事情看起来一片黑暗,你完全没有希望的时候吗?两年前,我被告知得了一种难以治愈的严重疾病。我的身体总是疼痛,所以我认为我活不长了。我很害怕,觉得很孤独、沮丧。后来有一天,我必须要经历一次两小时的治疗。医生想让我放松,所以他让我听了些音乐,其中有一首歌是《Happy》。这首歌让我觉得好多了,以至于从那时起我就开始一直听音乐。约翰·洛根说:“音乐是心灵的良药。”确实是这样。音乐帮我恢复了健康。
音乐带给了我快乐。当我听音乐时,它使我的思绪像在风中的风筝一样飞舞。音乐给我力量让我感到轻松。正是依靠摇滚音乐我才变得坚强,度过了那段艰难的时光。此外,音乐给我希望和满足感,成为了我最好的朋友。它使我的内心深受鼓舞。
当然,我并不希望你们承受我所经历的同样的病痛。但我们都会有感到悲伤和孤独的时候。在那些时候,音乐能以帮助我的同样方式帮助你。我希望不管怎样你们都要开始珍视音乐,使它成为你生活的一部分。
