详析
1. 他尽快地跑到泥塘,把一个男孩从危险中救了出来。
2. You saved my son's life yesterday.由“昨天”可先确定本句应当用一般过去时。
save one's life表示“救 的命”。
3. what从意思来看,本句应当是“我不会为我所做的接受 任何东西”,所以空白处所缺的应当是疑问代词what。
4. Because he wanted to repay the farmer.由第二.段的第二句可知,贵族送农民的儿子去上学,是因为他想报答农 民救了他的儿子。注:本句要用一般过去时,且要注意人 称的变化。
5. No,he didn't.由最后一段可知,青霉素救了贵族儿子 的命,所以答语为否定形式。
bog n.泥塘 repay v.报答
discover v.发现障碍句分析

New York is one of the most exciting cities in the world. You might want to do some shopping in New York. Fifth Avenue is probably New York's most famous shopping street,but if you go,be prepared to “window shop” only. This is shopping for the rich. There are other,less expensive shopping areas nearby,and you’ll soon come across famous stores such as Bloomingdales,Macy's and FAO Schwartz.
And if you’ve brought your rollerblades (滚轮冰 刀鞋) ,then a visit to Central Park is a must. This is a large,open park right in the middle of Manhattan,but if you thought that people came here to relax,sit down for a few minutes and get away from the rush of New York life,then you’d been wrong. Nobody sits in Central Park. They run,jog (慢跑) ,and most of them wear their rollerblades.
When you leave New York,you might be tired,but the one thing you won’t be is bored!
