　　【Text】

　　Children who play truant from school are unimaginative. A quiet day's fishing, or eight hours in a cinema seeing the same film over and over again, is usually as far as they get. They have all been put to shame by a boy who, while playing truant, travelled 1,600 miles. He hitchhiked to Dover and, towards evening, went into a boat to find somewhere to sleep. When he woke up next morning, he discovered that the boat had, in the meantime, travelled to Calais. No one noticed the boy as he crept off. From there, he hitchhiked to Paris in a lorry. The driver gave him a few biscuits and a cup of coffee and left him just outside the city. The next car the boy stopped did not take him into the centre of Paris as he hoped it would, but to Perpignan on the French-Spanish border. There he was picked up by a policeman and sent back to England by the local authorities. He has surely set up a record for the thousands of children who dream of evading school.

　　参考译文

　　逃学的孩子们都缺乏想像力。他们通常能够做到的，至多也就是安静地钓上一天鱼，或在电影院里坐上8个小时，一遍遍地看同一部电影。而有那么一个小男孩，他在逃学期间旅行了1,600英里，从而使上述所有逃学的孩子们都相形见绌了。他搭便车到了多佛，天快黑时钻进了一条船，想找个地方睡觉。第二天早上他醒来时，发现船在这段时间已经到了加。当男孩从船里爬出来时，谁也没有发现他。从那里他又搭上卡车到了巴黎。司机给了他几块饼干和一杯咖啡，就把他丢在了城外。男孩截住的下一辆车，没有像他希望的那样把他带到巴黎市中心，而是把他带到了法国和西班牙边界上的佩皮尼昂。他在那儿被一个警察抓住了，之后被当局送回了英国。他无疑为成千上万梦想逃避上学的孩子们创造了一项纪录。

　　【课文讲解】

　　【Key structures】

　　简单句、并列句和复合句

　　简单句是英语中最小的句子单位，一般有一个限定动词，它有一个主语和一个谓语，但可以用连词and将两个或两个以上的动词合并为一个简单句。根据动词后所使用的不同成分，简单句可有5种基本句型：

　　① 主语 +动词

　　② 主语 +动词 +主语补足语：

　　③ 主语 +动词 +直接宾语：

　　④ 主语 +动词 +间接宾语+直接宾语

　　⑤ 主语 +动词 +宾语 +宾语补足语

　　将几个简单句连接起来构成并列句。在并列句中不存在单独的主句和从属于它的从句;各小句根据上下文的要求按逻辑次序排列，但各小句都同等重要并独立存在。我们常常把并列句中的各小句看成是并列主句。可采用下列任何一种方式构成并列句：

　　① 用分号

　　We fished all day; we didn’t catch a thing.

　　② 用分号，后面跟一个连接副词(短语)，如however、above all、in addition、as far as等

　　We fished all day; however, we didn’t catch a thing.

　　③ 用并列连词，如and、but、so、yet等，前面常加逗号：

　　We fished all day, but (we) didn’t catch a thing.

　　复合句的构成方法可以是把简单句连接在一起，但复合句的各个组成部分并非同等重要(此点与并列句不同)，其中总有一个独立小句(或称“主句”)和一个或一个以上的从属小句(或称“从句”);主句往往可以独立存在。复合句的构成方法：

　　① 用连词将从句与主句连接起来：

　　If you’re not good at figures, it is pointless to apply for job in a bank.

　　如果你不擅于计算，向银行求职就毫无意义。

　　② 用动词不定式或分词结构。它们是非限定性动词，是短语而不是从句，但它们构成复合句(而非简单句)的一部分。 之所以如此是因为它们可以用从句的形式表现出来。

　　To get into a university you have to pass a number of examinations.

　　从句可分为：名词性从句;关系/形容词从句;副词从句。

　　Holiday resorts which are very crowded are not very pleasant.

　　那些拥挤的度假场所令人感到不很愉快。

　　Howerver hard I try, I can’t remember people’s names.

　　【Multiple choice questions】

　　10 They have been put to shame by a boy . They should feel ___a___.

　　(a) ashamed (b) shy (c) shyness (d) shameful

　　feel(半联系动词)+ 形容词

　　shyness n. 害羞

　　shy adj. 害羞(指人的一种性格)

　　shame v. 羞愧(跟人遇到某件事情当时的感觉有关系)

　　shameful adj. 令人羞愧 ;ashamed adj. 感到羞愧
