  Out of the darkness 冲出黑暗

  Nearly a week passed before the girl was able to explain what had happened to her. One afternoon she set out from the coast in a small boat and was caught in a storm. Towards evening, the boat struck a rock and the girl jumped into the sea. Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water. During that time she covered a distance of eight miles. Early next morning, she saw a light ahead. She knew she was near the shore because the light was high up on the cliffs. On arriving at the shore, the girl struggled up the cliff towards the light she had seen. That was all she remembered. When she woke up a day later, she found herself in hospital.

  参考译文

  几乎过了一个星期,那姑娘才能讲述自己的遭遇。一天下午,她乘小船从海岸出发,遇上了风暴。天将黑时,小船撞在了一块礁石上,姑娘跳进了海里。她在海里游了整整一夜才游到岸边。在那段时间里,她游了8英里。第二天凌晨,她看到前方有灯光,知道自己已经接近岸边了,因为那灯光是在高高的峭壁上。到达岸边后,姑娘朝着她看到的灯光方向挣扎着往峭壁上爬去。她所记得的就是这些。第二天她醒来时,发现自己躺在医院里。

  语法归纳:以字母a开头的同汇

  一句话总结:以字母a开头的形容词,在句子中常作表语,作定语时则要置于名词后,形成后置定语。

  对比学习以a开头形容词与去掉a后的词汇:

  alive adj.活着的(作表语)→live adj.活的;生动的(修饰物,作定语)

  alone adj./adv.独自的(地)(作形容词时作表语)→ lone adj.孤单的(作定语)

  asleep adj.睡着的(作表语)→ sleep n./v.睡觉

  awake adj.醒着v.叫醒(作形容询时作表语)→ wake v.叫醒,醒来

  alike adj.相像的(作表语) → like v.喜欢 prep.像……一样adj.相像的,类似的(作形容词既可作定语,又可作表语)

  arise v.产生,发生,出现 → rise v.起来;上涨,上升

  across prep/adv.穿过,横过 → cross v.穿过,横过

  await v.等候 → wait v.等候(不能直接加宾语)

  aloud adv.大声地(与read, call, cry等词连用,无比较级和最高级形式)→ loud adv.大声地,响亮地(常与talk, speak, shout, laugh等连用,比较级为louder,最高级为loudest)
