Para.7 到家后，克莱尔啜泣不止。格拉迪丝是她竭力模仿的对象。 托尼对克莱尔说，她这样想有点敏感，其实她像格拉迪丝一样优秀。托尼还建议在他离开，也就是拉里回家的前一天晚上，克莱尔邀请格拉迪丝和她的朋友们到家里来。到那个时候，托尼预计这栋正在彻底改造的房子将大功告成。 when 引导时间状语从句 定语从句，省略that，修饰everything 宾语从句，省略that “be being ＋adj.” 表行为反常，或说话人的惊讶、责备等 【4】He suggested that she invite Gladys and her friends to the house the night before he was to leave and Larry was to return. 长难句 【句式剖析】 1）该句是主从复合句。句中的that she...to return是宾语从句。 suggest表示“建议”时接宾语从句时,从句使用虚拟语气,谓语用(should+)动词原形。常见的有以下两种结构: (1)suggest (that) sb (should) do...建议某人做…… (2)It is suggested that...(should) do...有人建议…… 【点津】suggest表示“暗示;表明”时,后面的从句不使用虚拟语气。 Her expression suggested that she had told a lie. 她的表情表明她撒了谎。 托尼还建议在他离开，也就是拉里回家的前一天晚上，克莱尔邀请格拉迪丝和她的朋友们到家里来。 Tony worked steadily on the improvements. Claire tried to help by working on a light suspended from the ceiling, but she fell off the ladder. Even though Tony had been in the next room, he managed to catch her in time. As he held her, she felt the warmth of his body. She screamed, pushed him away, and ran to her room. 1. even though=even if 即使；纵然 2. manage to do sth设法做某事 3. fall off 从......上摔下来 4. in time 及时；最后 5. push sb away 推开 Para.8 托尼稳步地进行改进。克莱尔想帮忙修一盏悬挂在天花板上的灯，但她从梯子上摔了下来。尽管托尼一直在隔壁房间，他还是设法及时抓住了她。当他抱着她时，她感觉到他身体的温暖。她尖叫起来，推开他，跑回自己的房间。 引导让步状语从句 by + V-ing作方式状语 过去分词短语作后置定语,修饰a light as引导时间状语从句 The night of the party arrived. The clock struck eight. The guests would be arriving soon, so Claire dismissed Tony for the rest of the night. At that moment, Tony took her in his arms, bringing his face close to hers. She heard him declare that he did not want to leave her the next day, and that he felt more than just the desire to please her.

Sample 1 Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. A great philosopher Emil Cioran once said, “A man is a robot with defects.” We believe that it will be good and important to have robots help humans. From one perspective, robots can handle dangerous or repetitive tasks, keeping us safe and saving time. In addition, they offer constant companionship, which reduces loneliness for the elderly or disabled. Lastly, with robots managing daily chores, humans have more freedom to focus on creativity and family. In conclusion, a positive relationship with robots improves our lives, as long as we remain in control. Therefore, robots are truly good partners for humankind. There is a heated discussion about whether building close relationships with robots benefits humans. Some people argue that robots can provide efficient service and constant companionship, especially for the elderly or lonely. On the other hand, others worry that over-reliance on robots may weaken human empathy and social skills. In my opinion, the relationship is good as long as we use robots as tools rather than replacements for human interaction. Therefore, we should embrace technology wisely while preserving genuine human bonds.
