He looked across the classroom at the drinking fountain②. It was very close—only ten steps away. So, Ryan asked himself, “Why do some African children have to walk ten kilometres to get water every day? [1]And why is the water so dirty that it makes them sick？” Young Ryan thought, “Life is easy for me, but hard for those people. Why don't I help？” [1]本句使用了“so...that...”结构，that引导结果状语从句；从句中makes them sick为“make＋宾语＋宾语补足语”结构。 返回导航 At first, his plan was [2]to earn③ money to build a single well somewhere in Africa. He cleaned windows and did gardening④ for his family and neighbours. He soon reached his first target⑤ of $70, but when he gave the money to a charity, he was told that it actually cost $2，000 to build a well. Seventy dollars was only enough for a hand pump⑥. Ryan understood that a hand pump wouldn't help the children. [3]What they needed was a well dug near their homes. [2]此处动词不定式短语to earn money在句中作表语；“to build...in Africa”作目的状语。 [3]本句中“What they needed”是主语从句，What在从句中作宾语；过去分词短语dug near their homes作后置定语，修饰a well。 返回导航 [4]Two thousand dollars was a lot of money, but Ryan didn't give up. He was determined to⑦ help other children have clean water. He started to ask for help from his classmates and neighbours and persuaded them to⑧ donate⑨ money. At the same time, a friend of Ryan's mother helped make his story go public⑩. After several months, Ryan had raised⑪ the $2，000, [5]with which a well was built near a primary school⑫ in Uganda．The children at the school no longer⑬ needed to walk for hours to get water. They were grateful to⑭ him and invited him to visit. [4]当表示时间、距离、长度、价值、金额、重量等的可数名词复数作主语时，通常被看作一个整体，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。 [5]此处是“介词＋关系代词”引导的非限制性定语从句，修饰先行词the $2，000。 返回导航 In Uganda, Ryan at last saw the [6]finished well with his own eyes⑮. But that was not all. He also saw hundreds of delighted⑯ students who had turned out⑰ to welcome him. They sang and danced happily. Some even offered him food and gifts. At first Ryan was nervous, but soon a great warmth filled him. He really had made a difference for these children. He broke into a joyful smile⑱． [6]此处是过去分词作前置定语，修饰well。 返回导航 Later, Ryan's experience led him to⑲ set up⑳ a foundation㉑ to encourage more people to help. Many inspired people gave him their support. Ryan's foundation continues to㉒ attract support from㉓ more and more people, so the work of building more wells can go on㉔. Today, over 800，000 people in 16 countries across Africa have benefited from㉕ the life-changing㉖ gift of clean, safe water. 返回导航 Now, as an adult, Ryan says that the question [7]to ask is not “Why don't I help？”， but “How can I help today？”. This insight㉗ grew from the determined attitude of a six-year-old boy who had the courage and perseverance㉘ to make his dream a reality㉙． [7]此处是动词不定式作后置定语，修饰the question。 返回导航 改变世界的井 六岁的加拿大男孩瑞安听老师说，非洲的发展中国家有许多人没办法获得足够多干净的水，他对此感到难以置信。他望向了教室另一边的饮水机。距离很近，只有十步之遥。于是，瑞安问自己：“为什么有些非洲孩子每天不得不步行10公里去取水？为什么水会那么脏，以至于让他们生病？”小瑞安想：“生活对我来说很简单，但对那些人来说却很艰难。我为何不伸出援助之手？” 返回导航 起初，他的计划是赚钱，在非洲的某个地方打一口井。他为家人和邻居擦玻璃、打理花园。他很快就实现了第一个目标——挣到70美元，但当他把这笔钱捐给一家慈善机构时，却被告知打一口井实际上要花费2 000美元。70美元只够买一个手摇泵。瑞安知道一个手摇泵无法帮到那些孩子。他们需要的是一口打在他们家附近的井。 返回导航 2 000美元是一大笔钱，但瑞安没有放弃。他决心要帮助其他孩子获得干净的水。他开始向同班同学和邻居寻求帮助，劝说他们捐款。与此同时，瑞安妈妈的一个朋友帮忙宣传他的故事。几个月后，瑞安筹集到了2 000美元，他用这笔钱在乌干达的一所小学附近打了一口井。学校的孩子们再也不用步行数小时去取水了。他们很感谢瑞安，并邀请他前来做客。 返回导航 在乌干达，瑞安终于亲眼看到了那口打好的井。但这还不是全部。他还看到数百名兴高采烈的学生到场迎接他。他们高兴地唱歌、跳舞，甚至有人为他送上了食物和礼物。起初瑞安很紧张，但很快他的心里就充满了暖意。他真的改变了这些孩子的生活。他突然开心地笑了起来。 返回导航 后来，瑞安的这次经历促使他设立了一个基金会，以鼓励更多的人提供帮助。许多受到鼓舞的人都来支持他。瑞安的基金会不断吸引着越来越多的人的支持，因此打更多的井的工作得以继续。今天，已有非洲16个国家的80多万人受益于这一改变生活的礼物——清洁、安全的水。 现在，作为一个成年人，瑞安说要问的问题不是“为什么我不去帮助(别人)？”，而是“今天我该如何帮助(别人)？”。这种顿悟源于一个态度坚定的六岁男孩，他有勇气和毅力实现自己的梦想。 返回导航 教材原文助读4 PART 02 第二部分 ①good n．[熟词生义][U]善行，合乎道德的行为，正直的行为 the difference between good and evil善与恶的区别 ②board [bɔːd] vt.& vi.上船(或火车、飞机、公共汽车等) ③fear vt.& vi.害怕 ④go on to do sth.(完成某事后)接着做另一件事 go on doing sth.不停地做某事 返回导航 ⑤at the hands of sb./at sb.'s hands由某人导致；出自某人之手 ⑥be born on＋日期 出生于某日 be born in＋sp. 出生于某地 be born into/to/of...出生于……情况(家庭等) 返回导航 ⑦nationality [ˌnæʃə'næləti] n.

Their heartbroken parents do not join them. Indeed, they fear③ they may never see their children again. But they know that their children will live. [1]These are among the 669 children, most of them Jewish, that Nicholas Winton will go on to④save from death at the hands of⑤ the Nazis. [1]本句中most of them Jewish是独立主格结构；that引导定语从句，修饰先行词the 669 children，that在从句中作save的宾语。 返回导航 Nicholas Winton was born on⑥ 19 May 1909 in London, to German-Jewish parents. The family later took British nationality⑦. [2]On leaving school, Winton worked in banks in Germany and France. He returned to Britain in 1931, where he worked in business. [2]此处是“on doing sth.”结构，意为“一……就……”。 返回导航 In December 1938, a friend asked Winton to come to Prague to aid⑧ people who were escaping from⑨ the Nazis. In Prague, Winton saw people living in terrible conditions⑩ and whose lives were in danger⑪. He decided to help transport children to safety in Britain. He established⑫ an office to keep records of⑬ the children, and then returned to Britain to find temporary⑭ homes for them. [3]He used donated funds and his own money to pay the 50 pounds per child that the British government required. By August 1939, Winton had saved 669 children. [3]本句中过去分词donated作前置定语，修饰funds；that引导定语从句，修饰先行词the 50 pounds per child。 返回导航 During World War Ⅱ， Winton served⑮ as an officer in Britain's Royal Air Force. He left the military⑯ in 1954. He then worked for international charities⑰ and for various companies. For the most part⑱， he did not mention the children he saved, and his actions soon disappeared from people's memories. 返回导航 That all changed in 1988 when his wife Grete found a forgotten journal at home. The journal contained photographs and names of the children and addresses of the families that took them in⑲. She sent the journal to a newspaper, and that year Winton was seen on the British television programme That's Life. At one point⑳， the host asked people in the audience to stand up if Nicholas Winton had saved their lives. A shocked Winton watched [4]as the majority of people rose to their feet㉑. The programme brought his actions to public attention㉒， and Winton became a respected㉓ figure around the world. [4]此处是as引导的时间状语从句。 返回导航 Later, Winton received various honours for his achievement㉔， including a knighthood㉕ in 2003, and the Czech government's highest honour, the Order of the White Lion㉖ , in 2014. Nicholas Winton passed away㉗ on 1 July 2015, at the age of 106. [5]As the Chinese saying goes, “A kind-hearted person lives a long life.” [5]此处是as引导的非限制性定语从句，as意为“正如、像”。 返回导航 善行的力量 “英国辛德勒”：尼古拉斯·温顿的一生 那是1939年8月，一群惊恐的孩子正在登上布拉格威尔逊车站的一列火车。他们的父母伤心欲绝，却并未与他们同行。其实，他们害怕也许再也见不到自己的孩子了。可他们知道，孩子们会活下去。这些孩子是尼古拉斯·温顿陆续从纳粹分子的死亡之手中拯救出来的669名儿童中的一部分，他们大多数是犹太人。 返回导航 尼古拉斯·温顿于1909年5月19日出生于伦敦，其父母是德裔犹太人。这一家人后来获得了英国国籍。一离开学校，温顿就在德国和法国的银行工作。1931年，他返回英国经商。 返回导航 1938年12月，温顿的一个朋友请他来到布拉格，帮助正在逃脱纳粹分子的魔掌的人。温顿在布拉格看到人们生活条件极其恶劣，生命也受到威胁。他决定帮忙将孩子们送到英国安全的地方。他成立了一个办公室，用于记录孩子们的信息，然后回到英国为他们寻找临时住所。他利用捐赠的资金和自己的钱，支付了英国政府规定的每个孩子50英镑的费用。到1939年8月，温顿已经拯救了669个孩子。 返回导航 二战期间，温顿在英国皇家空军服役，并于1954年退役。之后，他在国际慈善机构和多个公司工作。大部分时间，他都没有提及自己拯救的孩子，他的行为也很快从人们的记忆里消失了。 返回导航 1988年，当他的妻子格蕾特在家中发现了一本被人遗忘的日记时，一切都改变了。日记里面有孩子们的照片和名字，以及收养他们的家庭的地址。她将日记寄往了一家报社，于是温顿就在那一年参加了英国电视节目《那就是生活》的录制。节目中，主持人问现场观众，如果尼古拉斯·温顿拯救过他们的生命，就请站起来。当看到大多数人都站起来时，温顿感到很震惊。这个节目使他的行为得到了公众的关注，温顿也成了在世界各地都深受尊敬的人。 返回导航 后来，温顿因为自己的成就而获得了诸多荣誉，包括2003年获封的爵士称号以及2014年获得的捷克政府颁发的最高荣誉——白狮勋章。 尼古拉斯·温顿于2015年7月1日去世，享年106岁。正如中国的俗语所说：“好人长寿。” 返回导航 $
