我们教区的牧师总是为各种各样的事筹集资金。但始终未能筹足资金把教堂的钟修好。教堂的钟很大，以前不分昼夜打点报时，但很多年前遭到毁坏，从此便无声无息了。

一天夜里，我们的牧师突然被惊醒了，大钟又在“打点”报时了！他一看表，才1点钟，可是那钟一边敲了13下才停。牧师拿着一支电筒走上钟楼想去看看究竟发生了什么事情。借着电筒光。他看见一个人，马上认出那是本地杂货店主比尔.威尔金斯。

“你究竟在这上面干什么，比尔？”牧师惊讶地问。

“我想把这口钟修好，”比尔回答说。“好几个星期了，我天天夜里到钟楼上来。嗯，我是想让你大吃一惊。”

“你确实使我大吃了一惊！”牧师说，“也许同时你把村里所有的人都吵醒了。不过，钟又能报时了，我还是很高兴的。”

“问题就在这里，牧师，”比尔回答说。“不错，钟能报时了，但是，恐怕每到1点钟，它总要敲13下，对此我已无能为力了。”

“大家慢慢就习惯了，比尔，”牧师说。“13下是不如1下好，但总比1下也不敲强。来，咱们下楼去喝杯茶吧。”笔记：现在进行时表情绪现在完成进行时表重复分词作状语强调谓语1.equaladj.相同的，胜任的；n.相等物v.等于beequaltothejob=becompetentforthejobtreatsbasequals公平地对待某人havenoequal没有对手equator赤道equation方程式，等式equivalent相等的be~ofequityn.公平equitableadj.公平的2.bealwaysdoing抱怨3.为各种借口foronecauseoranotherManypeoplearealwayssleepinglateforonecauseoranother.Sleeplate起得晚Stayup熬夜4.managetodo成功地做某事=beabletodotry/attempttodo做某事失败了Hewasabletoreachtheairportbefore9pm.attempted未遂的5.enough足够的（刚好）6.havesthdone找人做某事；遭遇不幸havemyphonestolenhavemycarrepaired7.无人理会besilentremainundisturbed8.however在写作中的位置therefore句子的第一个成分之后，前后逗号Thenextmorning,however,thegirlcollapsed.9.wakeupwithastart惊醒start:n.asuddenmovementstophiscarwithastart10.strikev.给人深刻印象；降临n.罢工，敲钟AnearthquakestruckWenchun.stroken.中风heatstroke中暑atastroke一下子11.分词作状语两句话怎么写成一句话？两句主语相同---分词作状语Ilikeapples,havingoneeachday.(1)留主句；删除另一句的主语和连词(2)有be删be，其余不变(3)无be，do改为doing(will/情态+do除外)Dressedinabluecoat,hewenttotheauditorium.两句主语不同----独立主格Myfatherlikesknitting,mymotherenjoyingsmoking.(1)留主句，删连词(2)无be，do改为doing(3)有be：be+名词----being+名词be+done/done----删bebe+adj---(being)+adj.Thebooktooold,soIwanttothrowitaway.Itdarkoutside,youhadbetterpickmeup.ItbeingMonday,wehaveclasses.Ihave3brothers,allofthembeingbusinessmen.Thebreadout-dateandstale,Marthaateitanyway.ItbeingTsingmingFestivaltomorrow,mostofuswillchoosetohaveaholiday.Dressedin…,sbdid…穿着Armedwith…,sbdid…拿着12.insurprise/indebt/intears/inall/incommon13.wasdoing礼貌Iwashopingtogetthechampionship.Iwaswonderingifyouareavailabletomorrow.14.havebeendoing从过去到现在为止一直做某事(延续)/经常做某事（瞬间：来去死借）havedone从过去到现在为止做了某事Hehasbeensleepingfor10hours.IhavebeenstudyingEnglishfor10years.MyfatherhasbeencomingtoXiamenfor2years.Mostofthestudentshavebeenborrowingbooksfromthelibraryfor3years.15.强调谓语：do+谓语Ididloveyou.16.still=inspiteofthis尽管如此17.asgoodas跟…一样Theboyisasgoodasgold.乖，可爱Theoldlaptopisasgoodasnew.练习一、英汉互译1.equal:一样重要/能够胜任这份工作/公平地对待我们/没有对手/equator/equation/equivalent/equity/equitable2.表示抱怨：3.为各种借口4.havesthdone5.设法做成某事/谋杀未遂6.enough7.strike：我觉得他很抠门。8.不分昼夜地9.从此便无声无息了10.However的位置11.惊醒12.分词作状语13.before的翻译14.catchsightof15.recognizesbassb16.insurprise/intears/incommon/inall
