课文原文

**Lesson 88: Trapped in a mine 困在矿井里**

Six men have been trapped in a mine for seventeen hours. If they are not brought to the surface soon they may lose their lives. However, rescue operations are proving difficult. If explosives are used, vibrations will cause the roof of the mine to collapse. Rescue workers are therefore drilling a hole on the north side of the mine. They intend to bring the men up in a special capsule. If there had not been a hard layer of rock beneath the soil, they would have completed the job in a few hours. As it is, they have been drilling for sixteen hours and they still have a long way to go. Meanwhile, a microphone, which was lowered into the mine two hours ago, has enabled the men to keep in touch with the closest relatives. Though they are running out of food and drink, the men are cheerful and confident that they will get out soon. They have been told that rescue operations are progressing smoothly. If they knew how difficult it was to drill through the hard rock, they would lose heart.

**参考译文:** 六个人被困在矿井里已有十七个小时了。如果不把他们尽快救到地面上来,他们就有可能丧生。然而,事实证明营救工作非常困难。如果用炸药爆破,震动会引起矿顶塌落。因此,营救人员在矿井的北侧钻了一个孔。他们打算用一种特制的容器把这六个人救上来。如果不是因为土壤下面有一层坚硬的岩石,他们的营救工作仅用几个小时就可以完成了。实际情况是,他们已经钻了十六个小时了,但离钻透还早着呢。与此同时,两个小时以前放下井去的一只麦克风使井下的人可以与地面上他们最亲近的人保持联系。虽然他们的食物和饮料都快消耗尽了,但这些人的心情很好,并且坚信他们很快就会出去。他们一直被告知营救工作进行得非常顺利。如果他们知道了钻透那坚硬的岩石有多么困难,他们会丧失信心的。

现在完成进行时1have been drilling持续进行的动作
一般现在时2are not brought, are used条件句中表将来

3.2 语态分析

3.2.1 被动语态分布

形式时态功能例句
have been trapped现在完成时被动强调被困状态Six men have been trapped
are not brought一般现在时被动条件句中表将来被动If they are not brought
are used一般现在时被动条件句中表将来被动If explosives are used
was lowered一般过去时被动过去被动动作which was lowered
have been told现在完成时被动已被通知They have been told
had not been过去完成时被动虚拟语气If there had not been

3.2.2 被动语态功能分析

被动语态的使用目的:

  1. 强调受事者而非施事者

    • 被困的是”六个人”(Six men),施事者不明确
    • 麦克风是”被放下”的,施事者不重要
  2. 保持话题连贯性

    • Six men… they… their lives(保持”六个人”为话题)
    • explosives… vibrations… roof(保持”炸药-震动-矿顶”因果链)
  3. 客观陈述事实

    • 新闻报道类文本倾向使用被动语态,显得更客观

3.3 语气分析(本课核心!)

3.3.1 虚拟语气类型对比

类型条件从句主句本课例句实际事实
与现在事实相反If + 主语 + 过去式主语 + would + 动词原形S12: If they knew… they would lose他们不知道
与过去事实相反If + 主语 + had done主语 + would have doneS7: If there had not been… they would have completed当时有岩石,未完成
与将来事实相反If + 主语 + should do/were to do主语 + would + 动词原形(本课未出现)

3.3.2 虚拟语气 vs 真实条件句

真实条件句(S2, S4)                    虚拟条件句(S7, S12)
─────────────────────────              ─────────────────────────
If they are not brought...             If they knew...
    ↓                                        ↓
用一般现在时表将来                       用过去式表与现在相反
事情有可能发生                           与事实相反
                                       
If explosives are used...              If there had not been...
    ↓                                        ↓
假设可能发生的情况                       假设与过去相反的情况
主句用will/may                         主句用would have done

3.4 情态动词分析

maymay lose可能表可能性(50%左右)they may lose their lives
willwill cause将会表将来结果vibrations will cause
wouldwould have completed本会虚拟语气(与过去相反)they would have completed

五、本课核心语法点深度解析

5.1 虚拟语气的多种用法(本课重中之重)

5.1.1 与现在事实相反

结构公式:

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  条件从句:If + 主语 + 动词过去式(be用were)               │
│  主句:主语 + would/should/could/might + 动词原形           │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

本课例句(S12):

If they knew how difficult it was to drill through the hard rock, they would lose heart. 译文:如果他们知道了钻透那坚硬的岩石有多么困难,他们会丧失信心的。

详细解析:

要素形式含义
条件从句谓语knew(过去式)假设”知道”(实际不知道)
主句谓语would lose”会丧失”(实际不会丧失)
实际事实they don’t know他们不知道困难程度
结果they are confident他们保持信心

更多例句:

  • If I were you, I would take the job.(如果我是你,我会接受这份工作)
  • If he had time, he could help us.(如果他有时间,他能帮助我们)

5.1.2 与过去事实相反

结构公式:

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  条件从句:If + 主语 + had + 过去分词                       │
│  主句:主语 + would/should/could/might + have + 过去分词    │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘

本课例句(S7):

If there had not been a hard layer of rock beneath the soil, they would have completed the job in a few hours. 译文:如果不是因为土壤下面有一层坚硬的岩石,他们的营救工作仅用几个小时就可以完成了。

详细解析:

要素形式含义
条件从句谓语had not been(过去完成时)假设”没有岩石”(实际有岩石)
主句谓语would have completed”本会完成”(实际未完成)
实际事实there was a hard layer土壤下有坚硬岩石
结果they have been drilling for 16 hours已经钻了16小时还没完成

更多例句:

  • If I had known your address, I would have written to you.(如果我知道你的地址,我就会给你写信了)
  • If she had studied harder, she could have passed the exam.(如果她学习更努力,她本可以通过考试的)

5.1.3 虚拟语气与真实条件句对比表

对比项真实条件句(S2, S4)虚拟语气-现在(S12)虚拟语气-过去(S7)
时间参照将来可能现在相反过去相反
条件句时态一般现在时一般过去时过去完成时
主句时态will/may + 动词原形would + 动词原形would have + 过去分词
可能性可能实现与事实相反与事实相反
本课例句If they are not brought… they may loseIf they knew… they would loseIf there had not been… they would have completed

5.2 非谓语动词的使用

5.2.1 过去分词短语

作表语/被动语态:

Six men have been trapped in a mine...
└────── 过去分词作表语 ──────┘

If they are not brought to the surface...
└─── 过去分词,被动语态 ───┘

作定语(后置):

a microphone, which was lowered into the mine...
            └── 过去分词短语作定语,修饰microphone ──┘

5.2.2 现在分词短语

作谓语(进行时):

rescue operations are proving difficult
                └── 现在分词,现在进行时 ──┘

Rescue workers are drilling a hole...
                └── 现在分词,现在进行时 ──┘

they have been drilling for sixteen hours
      └── 现在分词,现在完成进行时 ──┘

5.2.3 不定式短语

作宾语:

They intend to bring the men up...
      └── 不定式作intend的宾语 ──┘

作真正主语(it作形式主语):

how difficult it was to drill through the hard rock
              └── it是形式主语 ──┘
              └── 不定式是真正主语 ───┘

作定语:

they still have a long way to go
                      └── 不定式作way的定语 ──┘

作宾语补足语:

has enabled the men to keep in touch...
      └── enable sb. to do sth. 结构 ──┘

5.3 定语从句的使用

5.3.1 非限制性定语从句(S9)

结构:

...a microphone, which was lowered into the mine two hours ago, has enabled...
               └── 非限制性定语从句 ──┘
               
特点:
1. 用逗号与主句隔开
2. which指代microphone(物)
3. 去掉后不影响主句意思的完整性
4. 提供补充信息

5.3.2 限制性 vs 非限制性定语从句

类型标点功能例句
限制性无逗号限定先行词,不可省略The men who are trapped need help.
非限制性有逗号补充说明,可以省略The microphone, which was lowered…, has enabled…

5.4 现在完成进行时的功能(S8)

结构: have/has + been + 现在分词

本课例句:

they have been drilling for sixteen hours 译文:他们已经钻了十六个小时了

功能解析:

功能说明本课体现
持续性动作从过去持续到现在从16小时前开始,持续到现在
未完成性动作尚未结束still have a long way to go
强调过程强调动作的持续过程for sixteen hours

对比其他时态:

时态形式含义例句
一般过去时drilled过去做过They drilled yesterday.
现在完成时have drilled已完成They have drilled a hole.
现在完成进行时have been drilling一直在钻(还在钻)They have been drilling for 16 hours.

六、语法知识拓展

6.1 虚拟语气常见错误

错误正确说明
❌ If I would know✅ If I knew条件句中用过去式,不用would
❌ If she would have come✅ If she had come与过去相反用had done
❌ I wish I can✅ I wish I couldwish后从句用虚拟语气

6.2 As it is 的用法

含义: “照目前情况来看”、“实际上”、“事实是”

功能: 从虚拟假设回到现实

本课运用:

S7: If there had not been... (虚拟假设)
S8: As it is, they have been drilling... (回到现实)

对比:
- 虚拟:如果没有岩石,几小时就能完成
- 现实:As it is(实际上),已经钻了16小时了

6.3 lose heart vs lose one’s heart

短语含义例句
lose heart丧失信心、灰心they would lose heart
lose one’s heart to爱上He lost his heart to her.
