Lesson33 Out of the darkness
課文內容：
Nearly a week passed before the girl was able to explain what had happened to her. One afternoon she set out from the coast in a small boat and was caught in a storm. Towards evening, the boat struck a rock and the girl jumped into the sea. Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water. During that time she covered a distance of eight miles. Early nextmorning, she saw a light ahead. She knew she was near the shore because the light was high up on the cliffs. Onarriving at the shore, the girl struggled up the cliff towards the light she had seen. That was all she remembered. When she woke up a day later, she found herself in hospital.

alive adj.活著的(作表語）→live adj.活的；生動的(修飾物，作定語)
alone adj./adv.獨自的(地)(作形容詞時作表語)→ lone adj.孤單的(作定語)
asleep adj.睡著的(作表語)→ sleep n./v.睡覺
awake adj.醒著v.叫醒(作形容詢時作表語)→ wake v.叫醒，醒來
alike adj.相像的(作表語) → like v.喜歡 prep.像……一樣adj.相像的，類似的(作形容詞既可作定語，又可作表語)
arise v.產生，發(fā)生，出現(xiàn) → rise v.起來；上漲，上升
across prep/adv.穿過，橫過 → cross v.穿過，橫過
await v.等候 → wait v.等候(不能直接加賓語)
aloud adv.大聲地(與read, call, cry等詞連用，無比較級和高級形式)→ loud adv.大聲地，響亮地(常與talk, speak, shout, laugh等連用，比較級為louder,高級為loudest)
逐句精講:
1、Nearly a week passed before the girl was able to explain what had happened to her.
幾乎過了一個星期，那姑娘才能講述自己的遭遇。
語言點1 此句還可改為：
It has been nearly a week before the girl was able to explain what had happened to her.
再例：Nearly five hours passed before he came.幾乎過了五個小時，他才過來。
語言點2 what had happened to her為explain的賓語從句。
例：Can you explain why you did not go to school? 你能解釋一下為什么沒去上學嗎?
2、One afternoon she set out from the coast in a small boat and was caught in a storm.
一天下午，她乘小船從海岸出發(fā)，遇上了一場風暴。

語言點2 was caught in被卷入
3、Towards evening, the boat struck a rock and the girl jumped into the sea.
天將黑時，小船撞上了一塊礁石，姑娘跳進了海里。

重要短語：on strike罷工；strike hands達成協(xié)議，成交；air strike空襲
4、Then she swam to the shore after spending the whole night in the water.
她在海里游了整整一夜才游到岸邊。
語言點1 after在此為介詞,所以后接動名詞spending
