HOW LIFE BEGAN ON THE EARTH
After the “Big Bang”, the earth was just a cloud of energetic dust. What it was to become③ was a mystery until the dust began to slowly combine into④ a ball moving around the sun. The problem was that the earth became violent because it was not clear whether the solid shape was to last⑤ or not. It exploded loudly with fire and rock, which were in time⑥ to produce the water vapor, carbon dioxide, oxygen, nitrogen and other gases, which were to make⑦ the earth’s atmosphere. As the earth cooled down, ⑧water began to appear on its surface. Nobody knew that it was going to be different from other planets going round the sun. Water had already disappeared from planets like ⑨Mars or satellites like the moon, but it stayed on the earth. This is how the earth began to show its special qualities. Many people think that this was important for the beginning of life. It allowed ⑩the earth to dissolve harmful gases, which had become part of the earth’s atmosphere ⑾, intothe oceans and seas. That made it possible for life to begin to develop. ⑿
What scientists think is that the earth was different because of⒀ the arrival of small plants growing in the water on its surface. Nobody understood that these plants were the start of many changes. They multiplied and filled the first oceans and seas with oxygen⒁. This encouraged the development of early shellfish and all sorts of fish⒂.
Many millions of ⒃ years later the first green plants began to appear on land. Scientists believe that taking carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and filling the air with oxygen⒄ helped life to develop. Later land animals appeared. Some were insects. Others, called amphibians, were able to live on land as well as⒅ in the sea. When the plants grew into forests, reptiles appeared for the first time. They produced young ⒆generally by laying eggs. Later, some huge animals, called dinosaurs, developed. They laid ⒇eggs too. They became the most important animals on the earth for millions of years. But when they disappeared, mammals became more important. They were the last group of animals and they were different because they produced their young from within their bodies.
Small clever animals, now with hands and feet, appeared and spread(21) all over the earth. They developed new methods(22)of growing food, hunting and moving around. As time went by(23) they covered (24)the earth and have become the most important animals on the planet. But they are not taking care of the earth very well. They are putting too much carbon dioxide into(25) the atmosphere, which prevents heat from (26)escaping (27)from earth into spaces. The earth may become too hot for the lives on it. Whether life will continue on the earth for millions of years to come will depend on(28) whether this problem can be solved.

地球上生命是怎样开始的
随着“轰隆”一声巨响,地球就成一个云团,充满着具有能量的尘埃。没人知道它会变成什么,直到尘埃慢慢结合成一个围绕太阳运行的球体。问题是地球非常狂暴,因为还不清楚它的固态形状是否能够维持。它巨大的爆炸喷出了烈火与岩石,最终产生了水蒸气、二氧化碳、氧、氮和其他多种气体,从而形成了地球的大气层。随着地球的冷却,它的表面出现了水。谁也不知道它和其他围绕太阳运行的行星不一样。水已经从像火星这样的行星或月球这样的卫星上消失,但在地球上却留了下来。这就是地球怎样开始展示它的特殊品质。很多人认为,这对于地球上生命的开始很重要。它使地球把曾经存在于大气层中的有害气体溶解在海洋里。这使生命开始发育成为可能。
科学家认为,由于微小植物在地球表面水中的生长地球不同了。没人明白这些植物是许多变化的开始。他们繁殖并且使最初的大海和海洋充满了氧气。这促进了早期贝壳类动物和各种鱼类的生长发育。
数百万年之后最初的绿色植物开始出现在陆地上。科学家相信这些植物从大气中吸收二氧化碳并向空气中释放氧气帮助了生命的起源。后来出现了陆地动物。有些是昆虫,还有的叫两栖动物,他们既能够生活在陆地又能够生活在海里。当这些植物变成森林时首次出现了爬行动物。他们通常通过产卵孕育后代。后来,一些被称作恐龙的巨型动物逐渐出现了。他们也产卵。他们成为地球上最重要的动物达几百万年。但是他们消失之后哺乳动物变得更加重要。他们是最后的动物群体,他们不同于爬行动物是因为他们从体内孕育后代。
小型机灵动物,现在有手和脚,出现了并且蔓延到地球每个角落。他们开发了各种方法种植粮食、狩猎、迁徙。随着时间的推移,他们遍及整个地球并已成为这个星球上最重要的动物。但是他们没有照看好地球。他们往大气层中释放了太多的二氧化碳,阻止了热量从地球散发到太空。地球也许会变得太热而不能有生命存在。未来几百万年生命能否在地球上继续将取决于这个问题能否解决。

③主语从句
What it was to become was a mystery…这是一个主语从句,意思是“它会变成什么一直是个迷………”。主语从句是在复合句中充当主语的从句,通常放在主句谓语动词之前或由形式主语it代替,而本身放在句子末尾。
a. 引导主语从句的关联词有三类:
a) 从属连词that引导的主语从句
that引导的主语从句既可以放在句首也可以放在句末,在实际应用中我们常常采用 it形式主语的形式。引导词that在从句中不做任何成分,也没有任何意义,但不能
省略。如:
That he passed the English test is true.
千真万确,他通过了英语考试。
→It is true that he passed the English test.
That they were in truth sisters was clear from the facial resemblance between them.
很明显,她们确是亲姐妹,她们的脸型很相似。
→It is clear that they were in truth sisters from the facial resemblance between them.
〔注〕It引导形式主语的四个主要句型:
(a)It + be + 名词 + that从句。如:
It’s a pity that we can’t go.
很遗憾我们不能去。
It’s no surprise that our team should have won the game.
我们没赢这场比赛真意外。
可应用于此句型的名词还有fact , shame , honor , question, no wonder, an honor, a good thing, a pity, no surprise等。
(b)It + be + 形容词 + that从句。如:
It is certain that she will do well in her exam.
毫无疑问她考试成绩会很好。
It is probable that he told her everything.
很可能他把一切都告诉她了。
可应用于此句型的形容词还有clear, better, natural, important, obvious, true, surprising, good, wonderful, funny, possible, likely, certain, probable 等。
(c)It + be + 动词的过去分词 + that从句。如:
It is said that Mr. Green has arrived in Beijing.
据说格林先生已经到了北京。
It is reported that China has sent another man-made earth satellite into orbit.
据报道中国又成功地发射了一颗人造地球卫星。
可应用于此句型的过去分词还有believed , known , said, reported, thought, expected, decided, announced, arranged等。
(d)It + 不及物动词 + that 从句。如:
It seems that Alice is not coming to the party at all.
艾丽丝似乎不来参加晚会。
It happened that I was out that day.
碰巧我那天外出了。
可应用于此句型的不及物动词还有occur, happen , appear 等。
b) 从属连词if/whether引导的主语从句
whether与if皆可引导主语从句,但放在句首常用whether。从属连词if/whether在从句中有意义,意思为“是否”,但不做任何成分,也不可以省略。 如:
Whether he’ll come here isn’t clear.
他是否会来这里还不清楚。
Whether he has signed the contract or not doesn’t matter.
他是否在合同上签了字是无关紧要的。
Whether I will attend the meeting depends on the weather.
我是否去开会取决于天气。
c) 连接代词who, whom, whose, what, which, whoever, whatever, whichever连接副词 where, when, how, why引导的主语从句。连接代词或连接副词在从句中做主语、宾语、表语或状语,有具体的意义,不能省略。如:
Where we will go hasn’t been decided.
我们要去哪儿还没定下来。
How these stones were conveyed there is a mystery.
这些巨石是怎样运到那里的还是个迷。

What she did is not yet known.
她干了什么尚不清楚。
Whoever comes is welcome.
不论谁来都欢迎。
Wherever you are is my home----my only home.
你所在的任何地方就是我的家----我唯一的家。
b. 主语从句不可位于句首的情况:
a) It is said , (reported)…结构中的主语从句不可提前。如:
It is said that President Jingo will visit our school next week. [正]
That President Hu will visit our school next week is said. [误]
b) It happens…, It occurs…结构中的主语从句不可提前。如:
It occurred to him that he failed in the examination. [正]
That he failed in the examination occurred to him. [误]
c) It doesn’t matter how/whether…结构中的主语从句不可提前。如:
It doesn’t matter whether he is wrong or not. [正]
Whether he is wrong or not doesn’t matter. [误]
d) 含主语从句的复合句是疑问句时,主语从句不可提前。如:
Is it likely that it will rain in the evening? [正]
Is that will rain in the evening likely? [误]
c. What 与that 在引导主语从句时的区别
What 引导主语从句时在从句中充当句子成分,如主语、宾语、表语等,而that 则不然。如:
What you said yesterday is right.
你昨天所说的是对的。(what在从句中做said的宾语)
What has made him mad is not known yet.
什么使他发了疯现在还不知道。(what在从句中做has made的主语)
What the reason was is all we want to know.
究竟是什么原因正是我们想知道的。(what在从句中做表语)
That she is still alive is a consolation.
她仍活着是一件让人感到安慰的事。(that在从句中不做任何成分)
d. it引导的强调句与it作形式主语的主语从句的区别
it引导的强调句是用来对用来对句中除谓语外的其他某一成分加以强调,其结构为:“It is/was + 被强调部分+ that从句”。如果被强调的主语是人,则可以将that替换成who;如果强调其他成分,则必须使用that。如:
I met John in the street yesterday.→变成强调句:
It was I that/who met John in the street yesterday.
是我昨天在街上遇见了约翰。(强调主语)
It was John that I met in the street yesterday.
昨天我在街上遇见的是约翰。(强调宾语)
It was in the street that I met John yesterday.
我昨天是在街上遇见了约翰。(强调地点状语,不可换成where)
It was yesterday that I met John in the street.
是昨天我在街上遇见了约翰。(强调时间状语,不可换成when)
〔注〕判断“It is …that…”是强调句还是主语从句的方法是,去掉该句型中的“It, is和that”三个词后如果句子仍然通顺,且意思正确,那么它就是强调句;否则就是主语从句。如:
It is in Beijing that I met her for the first time. 去掉“It, is和that”后变成→
In Beijing I met her for the first time.
在北京我第一次见了她。(句子仍然通顺,意思正确,是强调句)
It is necessary that all of us learn English well. 去掉“It, is和that”后变成→
Necessary all of us learn English well.
(句子不通顺,意思不正确,是主语从句)

⑾ 非限制性定语从句
…which had become part of the earth’s atmosphere…这是一个非限制性定语从句,意思是“曾经存在于大气层中的有害气体”。定语从句有两种情况,即限制性定语从句和非限制性定语从句。
限制性定语从句与先行词关系密切,对它有限制作用。因此不可缺少,否则会影响全句的意义。译成中文为“……的”。限制性定语从句与先行词之间一般不用逗号。
而非限制性定语从句与先行词只有一种松散的修饰关系,对先行词作一些附加说明,不起限定作用,在口语中用停顿的方法表示,在书面语中用逗号分开,译成中文时,往往用两个分句表示。非限制性定语从句常用which (表示事或物), who (表示人), where (表示地点), when(表示时间)来引导。如:
Water, which is a clear liquid, has quite a few uses.
水是一种清澈的液体,有许多用途。(which引导的非限制性定语从句)
(如果省去which is a clear liquid,剩下的Water has quite a few uses.意思仍是清楚的。)
I knocked at the door of the chemist’s, which opened at once.
我敲了一下药店的门,门随即就开了。(which引导的非限制性定语从句)
(如果省去which opened at once,剩下的句子意思仍然完整。)
Yesterday I went to see Li Ping, who seemed to be very ill.
昨天我去看望了李平,他好像病得很厉害。(who引导的非限制性定语从句)
(如果省略who seemed to be very ill,所剩句子意思仍然完整。)
The old lady will set out for Beijing, where her son has been working for more than ten years.
这位老太太将去北京。她儿子在那儿工作十多年了。(where引导的非限制性定语从句)
(如果省去where her son has been working for more than ten years,所剩句子意思仍然完整。)
Let’s put off the picnic until next week, when the weather may be better.
让我们把野餐推迟到下个星期吧,那时天气也许会好一点。(when引导的非限制性定语从句)
(如果省去when the weather may be better,所剩句子意思仍然完整。)
〔注〕有时同一个定语从句,可以是限制性的,也可以是非限制性的,就看在它前面加不加逗号,加了逗号,不仅改变了句子的性质,而且改变了全句的意思。
请比较下面的句子:
She has a brother who is a doctor.
   她有一个是医生的兄弟。(限制性的)
 (这说明她有几个兄弟,其中一个是医生。)
 She has a brother, who is a doctor.
她有一个兄弟,是医生。(非限制性的)
 (这说明她只有一个兄弟,她兄弟是医生。)
 He borrowed all the books which had pictures in them.
他把所有里面有图画的书都借来了。(限制性的)
 (这说明他只借来那些有图画的书,别的书没有借。)
 He borrowed all the books, which had pictures in them.
 他把所有的书都借来了,书里都有图画。(非限制性的)
 (这说明他借来了所有的书。)
 In the class there are fifteen students who are good at maths.
这个班有15个数学学得好的学生。(限制性的)
 (这说明这个班不只是15个学生。)
 In the class there are fifteen students, who are good at maths.
这个班有15个学生,他们数学学得很好。(非限制性的)

(26)prevent sb from doing sth动词短语,意思是“阻止某人做某事, 妨碍某人做某事”。类似用法的短语还有: stop sb from doing sth,keep sb from doing sth。如:
The heavy rain prevented us (from) arriving here on time.
The heavy rain stopped us (from) arriving here on time.
大雨使我们不能按时到达。(from可以省略)
Nothing will prevent me (from) achieving my goals.
Nothing will stop me (from) achieving my goals.
什么也阻止不了我实现目标。(from可以省略)
What can we do to prevent the earth (from) becoming too hot?
What can we do to stop the earth (from) becoming too hot?
对于防止地球变热我们能做些什么呢?(from可以省略)
〔注〕keep sb from doing sth用法稍有不同。上面的句子应该改为:
The heavy rain kept us from arriving here on time.
大雨使我们不能按时到达。(from不可以省略)
Nothing will keep me from achieving my goals.
什么也阻止不了我实现目标。(from不可以省略)
What can we do to keep the earth from becoming too hot?
对于防止地球变热我们能做些什么呢?(from不可以省略)
从上面的例子可以看出:prevent sb from doing sth,stop sb from doing sth,keep sb from
doing sth三者都有“阻止某人做某事, 妨碍某人做某事”的意思,但前两者短语中的
“from”可以省略,而第三者即keep sb from doing sth中的“from”则不能省略。
〔注〕prevent(stop/keep) from与protect from的比较
prevent from与protect from都有“防止”的意思,但意思不同。prevent from意思是 “防
止某人做某事”,所“防止的”对象是某人做某事这个动作;protect from意思是“防
止某人受到伤害”,所“防止的”对象是某人不受到伤害。如:
Miss Nash put a fur coat on her pet dog to prevent it from feeling cold.
纳什小姐给她的宠物狗穿上皮大衣,以防止它感觉冷。(防止的对象是感觉冷)
Miss Nash put on a fur coat to protect her from cold.
纳什小姐穿上皮大衣,以防止寒冷。(防止的对象是寒冷)

A VISIT TO THE MOON
Last month I was lucky enough to have a chance to make a trip② into space with my friend Li Yanping, an astronomer. We visited the moon in our spaceship!
Before we left, Li Yanping explained to me ③that the force of gravity ④would change three times on our journey and that the first change would be the most powerful. Then we were off. ⑤ As the rocket rose slowly into the air we began to feel the pull of ⑥the earth, which is what we call gravity. At first it pushed us so hard back into our seats that ⑦we could not say anything to each other. Gradually ⑧the weight lessened and I was able to talk to him. “Why is the spaceship not falling back to the earth? On the earth if I fall from a tree I will fall to the ground.” I asked. “We are too far from the earth now to ⑨feel its pull,” he explained. “So we feel as if there is no gravity at all. When we get closer to the moon, we shall feel its gravity pulling us but it will not be as strong a pull as the earth’s.” I cheered up ⑩immediately ⑾and floated weightlessly around in our spaceship cabin watching the earth become smaller and the moon larger⑿.
When we got there, I wanted to explore⒀ immediately. “Come on,” I said. “If you are right, my mass will be less than on the earth because the moon is smaller and I will be able to move more freely. I might even grow taller if I stay here long enough. I shall certainly weigh less!” I laughed and climbed down the steps from the spaceship. But when I tried to step forward ⒁I found I was carried twice as far as on the earth and fell over⒂. “Oh dear,” I cried, “walking does ⒃need a bit of ⒄practice now that⒅ gravity has changed.” After a while I got the hang of it ⒆and we began to enjoy ourselves.
Leaving ⒇the moon’s gravity was not as painful as leaving the earth’s. But returning to the earth (21)was very frightening. We watched, amazed as fire broke out(22)on the outside of the spaceship as the earth’s gravity increased. Again we were pushed hard into our seats as we came back to land. “That was very exhaust
