17、re other objects in the whirlpooltrees and barrels.After a while,I became curious about the whirlpool itself.I then made three important observations.船在巨大的漩涡里面,我们以极快的速度绕着圈子。我清楚地看到在漩涡里还有其他东西树和桶。过了一会儿,我对漩涡本身产生了好奇。然后我有三个重要的发现。www.islide.cc22 The first,the larger the bodies were,the more rapidly they fe

21、 5.As you can see,the reason why Im here to tell the story is that I made the right decision.Some time after I left the boat,with my brother in it,it was pulled into the bottom of the whirlpool.Soon after that,the whirlpool became less wild.Then the sky was clear,the wind calmer,and the moon was shi
22、ning.如你所见,我能在这里讲这个故事正是因为我做了正确的决定。在我离开后过了一会儿,那只载着我哥哥的船被卷入漩涡底部。没多久,漩涡就变得不那么疯狂了。然后天空放晴,风平静了下来,月亮在闪闪发光。26with 的复合结构 with复合结构在句中通常作状语,表示伴随、方式、原因或条件等。该结构常见的其他形式有:(1)with+宾语+形容词/副词 In summer,she usually sleeps with the windows open.夏天,她通常开着窗户睡觉。She left the room with all the lights on.她离开了房间,所有的灯还亮着。27(2)w

25、 did not believe it.Now I have told you,and I cannot expect you to believe me any more than the fishermen did.我仍然跟木桶绑在一起,海浪很快把我带到了一个其他渔民居住的地方。最后,一条船上的人把我救了起来。我疲惫至极。那些渔夫是我的老朋友,但他们已经认不出我了。当我告诉他们我的故事时,他们并不相信。现在故事讲完了,我并不指望你能比那些渔民更相信我。www.islide.cc303.Read the text.Discuss the questions.1 Who are the mai
