6、k这套公寓租金为每周50美元。we rented a cottage at the seaside for the Christmas holidays. 我们在海边租了一套房子过圣诞节假期。注：rent 表示“租出去”和“租借”两种含义：rent.from. “向租借”；rent.to. “把.租给.”。辨析：rent/hire两者都可以表示“租用”，但用法不同。rent 一般用于租借物件，多数情况下强调长期的“租借，出租”，偏重租金，其租借的对象一般是房舍、土地或较大型的工具。hire 可以是暂时的“租用”物件，也可以是俺工作量或时间“雇佣”人。e.g.He hired a man to
7、plant flowers.他雇了一个人种花。Ill have to hire a suit for the wedding.我得为婚礼租一套礼服。 2. mercy (n.)意为“慈悲，怜悯，同情心”拓展：have mercy on sb 怜悯/宽恕某人 show mercy to sb 怜悯/宽恕某人out of mercy 出于仁慈without mercy 无情的，残忍的at the mercy of 任由摆布，在的掌握中He had no mercy so we had to leave .他没有一点同情心，所以我们不得不离开。He showed mercy to the defea

11、ade2.at (the) least 意为“至少，起码，无论如何”e.g.You could at least listen to what he says.无论如何要听听他说些什么。注：at least 常与数量词连用，后接数词时，相当于not less than“至少，不少于”，其反义词是at (the) most相当于not more than “至多，不超过”拓展：in the least 一点儿not in the least=not at all 一点儿也不least of all 最不，尤其不应用：The dictionary is not cheap.

12、0 yuan.A. at most B. at least C. as many as D. less than重难句导学But what I remembered most is moving a lot . 但我记忆最深的是经常搬家。解析：(1)句中 what I remembered most 是主语从句，连词what 在从句中作宾语，意为“的”。在复合句中用作主语的从句叫主语从句。从句作主语时为整体含义，谓语动词用单数。引导主语从句的连词常有：whether ，that ，what，when，who，where ，why 等。e.g.what surprised us most is
13、that he was late .最让我们吃惊的是他迟到了。what I need to do next is just to work hard .我下一步要做的就是努力工作。应用：What he always thinks of how he can do more for the people.A.is B.are C.have been D.will be(2)句中moving a lot 是动名词短语作表语，说明主语的内容是什么。e.g.His body is collecting stamps他的爱好是集邮。2.

14、 more of us. 每一次(搬家)，我们似乎都多一口人。解析：(1)短语each time 在句中用作副词，意为“每次，总是”。e.g.Each time she smiles so sweetly. 每次她都笑的那么甜。He did things that way each time. 他每次都那样做事。此外，each time 还可以作为连词引导时间状语从句，可以和 every time 替换，表示“每次，每当”，相当于 whenever ，常和一般现在时或一般过去时连用，强调动作的经常性。e.g.Each time I see him， he looks happy每次看见他，他都
15、是一副幸福的样子。(2)It seems/seemed that . 意为“看起来，似乎”，这一句子结构还可以转换为“sb. +seems/seemed+to do ”的形式。e.g.It seems that he has been ill.He seems to have been ill. 他似乎病了It seemed that he had heard of it .He seemed to have heard of it. 他似乎已经听说了此事。3.By the time we got to Mango Street we were six. 到我们搬到芒果街时，我们是一家六口人。
16、解析：句中by the time 意为“到时候为止”，引导时间状语从句。从句若为一般过去时，主句常用过去完成时；从句若为一般现在时，主句常用将来完成时。e.g.By the time he was 6，he had learned 1000 words.他6岁时已经学会1000个词了。By the time you come back, we will have finished it.你回来时我们将会完成。4.Then the water pipes broke and the landlord wouldnt fix them because the house was too old .
17、 水管坏了，房东也不修 ， 因为房子太旧了。解释：句中break 用作不及物动词，意为“破裂，折断，坏了”。此外，break 还可以用作及物或不及物动词，表示“折断，违背，破而入，中断，打破”等意。Im sorry ， I broke my promise. 对不起，我违背了我的诺言。At last Phil broke the silence.终于由菲尔打破了沉寂。5.Out back is a small garage for the car we dont own yet. 房子后边有一个为我们现在尚未拥有的汽车准备的小车库。解析：本句为倒装句式，表方位的的表语前置，句子全部倒装，a s
18、mall garage 为句子主语，介词for 短语修饰主语garage，因主语部分太长，故用倒装句，避免头重脚轻；the car 后为对其修饰的定语从句。e.g.Nearby was a small boat thats made of wood .附近是一艘木质的小船。In the front of the classroom stands our new teacher.教室前头站着我们的新老师。达标同步检测. 单词拼写。1.After the heavy rain, the ground was very _(潮湿).2.Sorry, Im afraid your car cant g
