课文原文
The mummy of an Egyptian woman who died in 800 B.C. has just had an operation. The mummy is that of Shepenmut who was once a singer in the Temple of Thebes. As there were strange marks on the X-ray plates taken of the mummy, doctors have been trying to find out whether the woman died of a rare disease. The only way to do this was to operate. The operation, which lasted for over four hours, proved to be very difficult because of the hard resin which covered the skin. The doctors removed a section of the mummy and sent it to a laboratory. They also found something which the X-ray plates had failed to show: a small wax figure of the god Duamutef. This god which has the head of a jackal was normally placed inside a mummy. The doctors have not yet decided how the woman died. They feared that the mummy would fall to pieces when they cut it open, but fortunately this has not happened. The mummy successfully survived the operation.
一位死于公元前800年的埃及妇女的木乃伊刚刚接受了一次手术。这具木乃伊是舍佩姆缪特的,她曾是底比斯神庙的一位歌手。由于给这具木乃伊拍摄的X光片上有奇怪的斑点,医生们一直试图查明这位妇女是否死于某种罕见疾病。唯一的办法就是手术。手术持续了四个多小时,结果证明非常困难,因为覆盖皮肤的硬树脂很难处理。医生们取下木乃伊的一部分,送到实验室。他们还发现了一些X光片未能显示的东西:一个阿努比斯神的小蜡像。这个有着胡狼头的神通常被放置在木乃伊内部。医生们尚未确定这位妇女的死亡原因。他们担心在切开木乃伊时它会散架,但幸运的是这种情况没有发生。这具木乃伊成功地经受住了手术。

|---|---|---|---|
| 现在完成时 | 3 | has just had, have been trying, have not decided | 与现在有关的过去动作/状态 |
| 现在完成进行时 | 1 | have been trying | 从过去持续到现在的动作 |

3.1.2 时态时间轴
时间轴示意
过去 ←──────────────────────────────────────→ 现在
[800 B.C.] [过去某时] [手术时] [现在]
│ │ │ │
▼ ▼ ▼ ▼
died was singer had failed have not decided
plates taken removed have been trying
feared lasted has just had
cut survived
would fall
3.1.3 现在完成时的使用场景
本课现在完成时共出现3次:
| 例句 | 用法类型 | 含义 |
|---|---|---|
| has just had | 刚刚完成的动作 | 手术刚做完 |
| have been trying | 从过去持续到现在 | 医生们一直在努力 |
| have not yet decided | 尚未完成的状态 | 还没确定死因 |
规则总结:
现在完成时 = have/has + 过去分词
使用场景:
1. 过去动作对现在有影响
2. 从过去持续到现在的动作/状态
3. 刚刚完成的动作(just/already)
4. 尚未完成的否定(not yet)
3.1.4 现在完成进行时
have been trying是课文中的重要时态:
结构: have/has been + doing
含义: 从过去某一时刻开始,一直持续到现在,
强调动作的持续性,可能还在继续
例句分析:
doctors have been trying to find out...
└── 医生们从过去(看到X光片时)开始
一直持续到现在(甚至可能继续)
试图查明死因
vs 一般现在完成时:
doctors have tried to find out...
└── 强调"尝试过"的结果,不一定持续
3.1.5 过去完成时
had failed表示”过去的过去”:
| 例句 | 参照点 | 动作发生时间 | 逻辑关系 |
|---|---|---|---|
| had failed | found(发现) | X光片拍摄时 | X光片先拍摄(失败),后发现 |
3.2 定语从句的系统运用
3.2.1 定语从句统计
本课共出现 5个定语从句:
| 序号 | 从句 | 先行词 | 关系词 | 类型 |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | who died in 800 B.C. | woman | who | 限制性 |
| 2 | who was once a singer… | Shepenmut | who | 限制性 |
| 3 | which lasted for over four hours | operation | which | 非限制性 |
| 4 | which covered the skin | resin | which | 限制性 |
| 5 | which the X-ray plates had failed to show | something | which | 限制性(可省略) |
| 6 | which has the head of a jackal | god | which | 限制性 |
3.2.2 who vs which 的使用规律
关系词选择规则:
who → 指人,作主语/宾语
例: an Egyptian woman who died...
Shepenmut who was once a singer...
which → 指物,作主语/宾语
例: the operation which lasted...
the hard resin which covered...
something which the X-ray plates...
3.3 语态系统分析
3.3.1 被动语态统计
| 序号 | 被动结构 | 时态 | 例句 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | was placed | 一般过去时被动 | This god…was normally placed… |
3.3.2 主动表被动
课文中的特殊表达:
The only way to do this was to operate.
└── operate 用主动形式表被动含义
(手术是被做的,但用主动更简洁)
比较:
The only way...was to be operated.(较少用)
The only way...was to operate.(课文用法)
3.4 状语从句的功能
3.4.1 as引导原因状语从句
As there were strange marks on the X-ray plates...
as 的用法特点:
1. 语气较弱,表示附带说明的原因
2. 通常位于主句之前
3. 常译为"由于"、"鉴于"
vs because:
- As: 附带说明的原因(双方已知或显而易见)
- Because: 直接原因,回答why
例句对比:
As it was raining, we stayed home.(附带说明)
We stayed home because it was raining.(强调原因)
3.4.2 when引导时间状语从句
...when they cut it open
when 的用法:
1. 表示"当……时候"
2. 主从句动作可同时或先后发生
3. 可与各种时态搭配
本课时态搭配:
feared(过去)+ when they cut(过去)
四、本课语法重点总结
4.1 核心语法点
4.1.1 语法点一:定语从句(who/which引导)⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
本课是定语从句的经典范例课文,涵盖:
- who引导的限制性定语从句(指人)
- which引导的限制性定语从句(指物)
- which引导的非限制性定语从句
重点例句解析:
The operation, which lasted for over four hours, proved to be very difficult
because of the hard resin which covered the skin.
定语从句对比:
1. which lasted for over four hours
└── 非限制性定语从句(逗号隔开,补充说明)
2. which covered the skin
└── 限制性定语从句(无逗号,限定修饰)
└── 先行词resin需要被限定(覆盖皮肤的那层树脂)
4.1.2 语法点二:现在完成时与现在完成进行时 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
现在完成时:
| 例句 | 含义 | 标志词 |
|---|---|---|
| has just had | 刚刚完成 | just |
| have not yet decided | 尚未完成 | not yet |
现在完成进行时:
doctors have been trying to find out...
vs 现在完成时:
doctors have tried to find out...
区别:
- have been trying: 强调持续进行,可能还在继续
- have tried: 强调尝试过的经历或结果
4.1.3 语法点三:as引导原因状语从句 ⭐⭐⭐⭐
As there were strange marks..., doctors have been trying...
as vs because vs since:
┌─────────┬──────────┬───────────┬─────────────┐
│ 连接词 │ 语气强度 │ 常用位置 │ 语义侧重 │
├─────────┼──────────┼───────────┼─────────────┤
│ because │ 最强 │ 主句前后 │ 直接原因 │
│ since │ 次强 │ 主句前 │ 已知事实 │
│ as │ 较弱 │ 主句前 │ 附带说明 │
└─────────┴──────────┴───────────┴─────────────┘
4.1.4 语法点四:过去完成时 ⭐⭐⭐
标志:had + 过去分词
...which the X-ray plates had failed to show
时间逻辑:
过去完成时(had failed) → 一般过去时(found)
(X光片先拍摄且未能显示 → 后来医生发现)
错误示例:
~~which the X-ray plates failed to show~~(时态错误)
4.1.5 语法点五:同位语 ⭐⭐⭐
They also found something...: a small wax figure of the god Duamutef.
同位语功能:
1. 解释说明前文名词something的具体内容
2. 用冒号连接(也可用逗号或破折号)
3. 去掉后不影响句子完整性
结构: 名词 + : + 同位语名词短语
4.2 难句解析
难句1:as原因状语从句 + 现在完成进行时
