新概念英语第二册48课讲解与课后答案

新概念英语第二册第48课课文重难点Further notes on the text

1．Dentists always ask questions when it is impossible for you to answer. 牙科医生们总是在你无法作出回答的时候向你提出问题。

在when引导的时间状语从句中，it为先行主语，代指后面的不定式，for+人称代词／名词说明不定式表示的动作是谁做的：

It is not hard for you to help them. 你帮助他们并不难。

It was a mistake for me to come to the party. 我来参加晚会是错误的。

impossible通常不以人作主语，而以不定式或从句作主语：

It is impossible for him to help you. 他不可能帮你。

It is impossible that he will help you. （译文同上）

2．In answer to these questions I either nodded or made strange noises. 作为对这些问题的回答，我不是点头，就是发出奇怪的声音。

（1）in answer to为固定短语，在这里表示"作为对……的回答"：

In answer to my question, Dan shook his head. 作为对我的问题的回答，丹摇了摇头。

这个短语的另一个含义是"响应……的请求"：

In answer to my request, he wrote a letter to George. 应我的请求，他给乔治写了封信。

（2）made strange noises, 发出奇怪的声音。"我"并不是有意发出这些声音，而是因

为嘴里有药棉，又想回答医生的话造成的。

3．Meanwhile, my tongue was busy searching out the hole where the tooth had been. 与此同时，我的舌头正在忙着寻找刚拔掉的那颗牙的伤口。

（1）副词meanwhile表示"在此期间"、"与此同时"：

He won't come until ten o'clock. Meanwhile you can have a rest. 他10点以前不会来。在此期间你可以休息一下。

Mary was talking to me about her new dress. Meanwhile I was thinking about something else. 玛丽在和我讲她的新衣服。与此同时我却在想着其他事情。

（2）search out表示"找出"、"查出"、"搜出"等：

Have you searched out the books I needed? 你找出我需要的书了吗？

（3）where the tooth had been用的是过去完成时，因为在描述这件事的时候那颗牙已经不在了。牙齿尚在的时间是"过去的过去"。

4．When the dentist at last removed the cotton wool from my mouth…当那位牙医最后将药棉从我嘴中取出时……

remove可以表示"拿去"、"除去"、"去掉"，通常结构为"remove +名词+from"；它也可以单独使用：

I've removed that picture from the wall. 我已经把那幅画从墙上拿走了。

Please remove your hat. 请摘下你的帽子。

2．多项选择题答案

1c 2b 3c 4b 5a 6c

7b 8 b 9 d 10 a 11b 12 c

新概念英语第二册课后习题答案详解Lesson 48 1. c 根据课文第3-4 行I tried to say something, but my mouth was full of cotton wool 可判断只有c. There was something in his mouth 最符合课文的真实情况，这也是作者不能讲话的唯一原因，其他3 个选择都不是原因，所以只能选c. 2. b 根据课文第8-10 行I suddenly felt very worried,…when the dentist at last removed the cotton wool… I was able to tell him that he had pulled out the wrong tooth 可以判断b. he thought the dentist had pulled out the wrong tooth 是作者着急的唯一原因，其他3 个选择都不是他着急的原因，所以选b. 3. c 只有选c. cannot 才能使句子同前一句It is impossible for him to answer.(他是不可能回答的)意义相同,所以c.是正确答案.a. might not 与d .may not 都不符合题目意思. b. could not 时态不对. 4. b 本句是将前一句中表示命令请求的间接引语变成了直接引语（祈使句）。a. To rest 是动词不定式，不能做祈使句的谓语；c. Do you rest 是疑问句，不能表示请求；d. Resting 是动名词也不能做祈使句的谓语；只有b. Rest 可以做祈使句的谓语,所以选b. 5. a 本句是将前一句中的间接疑问句...how my brother was 变成直接疑问句，因此时态和语序都要作相应改变。b. your brother was, c. your brother is 都不是疑问句语序，所以都不对。d. was your brother 语序正确，但时态不对：间接引语是过去时，直接引语应该是现在时才正确。只有a. is your brother

语序和时态都正确，所以应该选a. 6. c 这是一个疑问句，It likes you , b. Does it a. like you 和d. Like you 这3 个选择都意思不通，不符合题目意思，只有c. Do you like 意思通顺，符合疑问句语序，因此只能选c. 7. b 介词by 后面加动名词可以表示方式。本句只能选b. nodding(点头)，因为它是动名词，可以放在by 后面作方式状语。其他3 个选择都不能放在介词by 后面，所以选b. 8. b 本句需要选一个同前一句中时间短语for a while (一会儿)意义相同的短语。quietly (安静地)，a. c. while he spoke to me (当他跟我说话时)，d. for a long time (很久)这3 个选择都与for a while 的意义不符。只有b. for a short time (短时间)同for a while 的含义相同，因此选b. 9. d a. assembly (集会，聚会)，b. gathering (聚集，收集抽象的东西，如消息等)，c. congregation (聚集，聚合) ，d. collection (收集，收藏如邮票，硬币等)，只有d 最适合这个句子，其他3 个选择都不能与火柴盒连用，所以选d. 10. a 前一句I nodded(我点头)表示同意，只有a. agreed (同意)才是这一动作所表达的含义。said b. no (说不)，c. shouted (高喊)，d. whispered (耳语) 这3 个选择都不是nodded 所表达的含义，所以选a. 11. b 本句需要选出同前一句中的Meanwhile(同时)意义相同的词或短语。a. However(不过，然而)；b. In the mean time(同时)；c. Never the less(尽管如此，不过)；d. Although(虽然)；这4 个选择中只有b.同Meanwhile 的意义相同，所以选b. 12. c a. took it off (脱下)，b. took it in (理解)，c. took it out (取出)，和d. took it up (从事于)4 个选择中只有c. took it out 同前一句He removed the cotton wool from my mouth(他将药棉从我嘴里取出)的含义相同，所以选c.
