13、将要”。课文难句精析【拓展】英语中有很多表示将来时的方法，在具体运用中表达的内容又不尽相同，现将各种表达法归纳如下：“be going to动词原形”，be going to 相当于一个助动词(其中be有人称和数的变化)，与它后面的动词原形一起构成谓语。用来表示打算、计划或安排要做的事情，或在说话时已有迹象预示会在将来发生的事情。例如：Look!Its going to rain.There is going to be a parents meeting tomorrow.“will/shall动词原形”，用来表示说话时认为或预测会在将来发生的动作或存在的状态。will用于各种人称；shal

14、l只用于第一人称。例如：What time shall we go there tomorrow?I will/shall go to visit her next week.按计划或安排即将发生的动作可以用“现在进行时”来表示。这些动作往往都与移动、方向、启动等有关。如：come，go，arrive，leave，move，fly等。例如：Mr.Brown is leaving for Beijing tomorrow.在时间或条件状语从句中，表示将来的动作常用“一般现在时”。例如：I wont leave here until you come back.“be about to动词原形”意

15、为“正要做某事、正准备做某事”，通常不接时间状语。“be to动词原形”表示按计划或安排即将发生的动作，或可能、一定会发生某种情况。例如：They are to come to Guangzhou in November.用系动词be的一般现在时表示将来。例如：Are you free tomorrow?2.I had already heard that George didnt like being kept waiting,so even though I didnt have the right clothes on,I raced after him.我已经听说乔治不喜欢等人，所以尽

16、管我还没有穿上合适的衣服却跟在他后面跑起来。句中连词so引导结果状语从句，该从句中含有一个连词even though引导的让步状语从句。主句中含有一个由连词that引导的宾语从句，作谓语had heard的宾语。even though意为“即使，纵然，虽然，尽管”，其引导的让步状语从句既可置于主句之前，也可置于主句之后。例如：a.Even though I have to walk all the way,I will get there.b.I can still remember,even though it was so long ago.【拓展】和even though具有同样意思和用

17、法的是“even if”。连词as though=as if意为“好像，似乎，仿佛”，引导方式状语从句。例如：He behaved as though/as ifnothing had happened.Scanning to get detail informationscanningReading Comprehension IIIReview the timeline of the passage.Write a sentence in each of the boxes.Three sentences have been given.1 Clancy arrived at the wh
