Please translate the following sentences into English .
3 . mouth 嘴

單元詞組思維運用
1 . on earth 在地球上
Two thousand years ago , there were only 250 million people on the earth . 兩千年前，地球上只有兩億五千萬人。
We live on the earth , but in the future some will be able to live on the moon . 我們生活在地球上，將來有些人可能生活在月球上。
注意on earth 是“世界上；究竟”。如：
What on earth do you mean ? 你究竟是什么意思 ?
He is the greatest man on earth . 他是世界上最偉大的人。
2 . hour after hour 一小時接著一小時，不停地
If the population goes on hour after hour , it will be the biggest problem in our country . 如果人口一小時又一小時地繼續(xù)增長下去，它將成為我國最大的問題。
So it goes on , hour after hour . In one day , people have to find food for over 250 , 000 mouths more . 隨著一小時又一小時地過去，僅在一天內(nèi)，人們就必須提供25萬人吃的食物。
They worked on hour after hour and never left tired . 他們不停地工作，從不感到累。
類似詞組還有：day after day 一天又一天 / year after year 一年又一年
3 . at the beginning of 在……初期；在……開頭
At the beginning of the twentieth century , the world's population was about 1 , 700 million . 在20世紀初，世界人口大約17億。
You can find the sentence at the beginning of this chapter . 在這一章的開頭你能發(fā)現(xiàn)那個句子。
注意at the beginning 是“開始，開頭”。如：
At the beginning he wasn't interested in maths . 起初他對數(shù)學不感興趣。
4 . at the end of 在……的末尾；在……的盡頭
At the end of the road you'll see the hospital .
At the end of his journey , he went to Shanghai . 在旅行快要結束時，他去了上海。
At the end of 1979 , he came back from Japan . 在1979年末，他從日本回來。
5 . some day 總有一天，有朝一日
Some day you will be sorry about it .
6 . faster and faster 越來越快
The world's population is growing faster and faster . 世界人口增長得越來越快。
注意“比較級 + and + 比較級”表示“越來越……”。又如：
She's getting thinner and thinner . 她越來越瘦了。
7 . no more than 只有，僅有
We have walked on more than ten miles . 我們走了頂多只有10英里。
It took her no more than an hour to write the article . 她僅僅花了一小時就寫完了那篇文章。
辨析：not more than 的意思是“至多”，“不超過”。試比較：
There are no more than five students in the classroom . 教室里頂多只有五個學生。 ( 強調(diào)“人少”的意思 )
There are not more than five student in the classroom . 教室里的學生不超過五人。 ( 強調(diào)“不超過”的意思 )
二、學海導航
【 學法指要 】
單元難點疑點思路明晰
1 . 以介詞開頭的特殊疑問句句型
By what year will the world's population reach 6 billion ? 到哪一年，世界人口將達到六十億 ?
介詞 by 在此表示“到 ( 什么時候 ) 為止”。在特殊疑問句中，當疑問句作介詞賓語時，有時可將介詞放在句首。又如：
By whom is the book written ?
At what time did you tell him to meet us ?
From which library did you borrow the book ?
To whom were you talking ?
2 . 不定式作定語的句型
There will not be enough space even to stand in on the earth . 就是在地球上站著，也不會有足夠的地方了。
不定式 even to stand in 用作定語，修飾 space . 注意，stand 是不及物動詞。當不定式是不及物動詞而作定語修飾名詞時，它后面就應有必要的介詞。如本句型中的 in 。又如：
He still had no house to live in . 他仍然沒有房子住。
There is nothing ( for us ) to worry about . 沒有什么值得發(fā)愁的。
He is a very nice person to work with . 他是一個很好共事的人。
3. the world’s population 世界人口
( 1 ) population 常用來表示一個地區(qū)、一個城市、一個國家的總人口數(shù)，當 population在句中作主語時，它后面的動詞應該用單數(shù)形式。如：
What's the population of the world ? 全世界有多少人 ?
Wuhan has a population of about seven million . 武漢大約有七百萬人。
( 2 ) people 常用來表示一個較小范圍內(nèi)的具體人數(shù)。如：
About two hundred people came to that meeting .
4 . 英語中數(shù)詞的讀法
( 1 ) 大家知道，數(shù)字每隔三位數(shù)就有一個分節(jié)號，分節(jié)以后，各節(jié)就成了101 - 999第三位數(shù)了。第一分節(jié)號前是 thousand ( 千 ) ，第二個分節(jié)號前是 million ( 百萬 ) ，第三個分節(jié)號前是 thousand million ( 英國讀法 ) 或 billion ( 美國讀法 ) ( 十億 ) 。讀的時候十位數(shù) ( 或個位數(shù) ) 的前面一般要加 and ( 也可不加 ) 。因此，333 333 333 讀作：three hundred ( and ) thirty - three million , three hundred ( and ) thirty - three thousand , three hundred and thirty - three
( 2 ) 英語沒有單獨表示“萬”和“億”的詞，所以：
10 000 ( 一萬 ) 讀作：ten thousand
10 000 ( 十萬 ) 讀作：one hundred thousand
10 000 000 ( 一千萬 ) 讀作：ten million
100 000 000 ( 一億 ) 讀作：one hundred million
5 . About eighty - one million 是 The population of Germany ( 或 It ) is about eighty - one million 的簡略形式。
6 . … and find out the answers to these questions . ……并找出這些問題的答案。
( 1 ) 辨義：find 與 find out
find 多用于直觀所“發(fā)現(xiàn)”或“找到”的東西；find out 則強調(diào)通過思索、調(diào)查等所發(fā)現(xiàn)的事物。例如：
I haven't found my pen yet .
We must find out the result of the thing .
( 2 ) 句中的介詞 to 表示一種對應或配套關系，不可用介詞 of 。例如：
This is the key to the front door . 這是前門的鑰匙。
Where is the monument to Liu Hunan ? 劉胡蘭紀念碑在哪里 ?
7 . Standing room only 只有立足之地
room 在這里意為“空間，地方”，為不可數(shù)名詞。例如：
The bed takes up too much room .
8 . By what year will the world's population reach 6 billion ? 到哪一年，世界人口將達到60億 ?
( 1 ) by“到……止；不遲于”。例如：
By the end of last year , they had learned about one thousand English words .
I'll be back by ten o'clock . 我將10點鐘以前返回。
比較：I'll be back at about ten o'clock . 我將于10點左右返回。
( 2 ) 在特殊疑問句中，當疑問詞作介詞賓語時，有時將該介詞置于疑問詞前。例如：
With whom were you talking just now ? 剛才你和誰交談 ?
From which library did you borrow the book ? 你從哪個圖書館借的這本書 ?
9 . Maybe you think that isn't many . 可能你認為174個嬰兒并不多。
名右的 that 代替前面提到的 174 babies，這是一個具體的 number ( 數(shù)字 ) ，作為一個整體，代詞用 that 而不用 those 。例如：
He's learned about five thousand English words . That's really a big number .
The child has learnt hundreds of English words . That isn't easy for him .
10 . So it goes on , hour after hour . 人口出生就這樣一小時一小時的延續(xù)下去。
( 1 ) so“如此”的意思。it 指上文提到的人口出生。
( 2 ) go on “繼續(xù)不斷”的意思。可作及物或不及物動詞詞組用。例如：
The work went on well . 工作進行得很好。
Peter went on doing his homework though he was tired .
( 3 ) hour after hour “一小時接一小時。例如：
day after day 一天天 ，year after year 一年又一年
11 . In one day , people have to find food over 250 000 mouths more . 每過一天，人們就不得不為增加的25萬多張嘴尋找食物。
( 1 ) 句中的 in 與表示“所用的”時間連用。例如：
She finished reading the book in a week . 她用一星期時間看完了這本書。
( 2 ) 介詞短語 over 250 000 mouths more 是介詞 for 的賓語。例如：
250 000 mouths more“多25萬張嘴”。注意這種表達結構，其中的 more 表示數(shù)量的增多。例如：
We don't hear clearly . Please read the text once more .
They've learned about one thousand English wors . And we've learned two hundred more . 他們學了約 1000 個英語單詞，我們還多學了 200 個。
( 4 ) 介詞 over 可作“多于”、“超過”之意。例如：
It cost me over ten yuan .
12 . Just think how many more there will be in one year ! 想想看吧，在一年時間里將會增加多少人 !
( 1 ) just 常與祈使句連用。例如：
Just come here a moment . 請到這兒來一下。
( 2 ) How many more there will be in one year 是動詞 think 的賓語從句。
13 . The population problem may be the greatest one of the world today . 人口問題可能是當今世界最嚴重的問題。
( 1 ) the greatest one 即 the greatest problem , one 為代詞。
( 2 ) 介詞短語 of the world today 是 one 的定語。
14 . The world's population is growing faster and faster . 世界人口增長得越來越快。
( 1 ) grow 意為“增長，增大”。句中用進行時 is growing , 很好地表達了當今世界的人口狀況。
( 2 ) faster and faster 是副詞重疊，修飾 is growing，作狀語。副詞和形容詞比較級的這種重疊使用，相當于漢語的“越來越……”。例如：
The train ran faster and faster . 火車開得越來越快。
15 . But at the beginning of the twentieth century …，然而在二十世紀初……
at the beginning of…“在……之初”。例如：
At the beginning of the class , the teacher drew a picture on the blackboard .
在開始上課的時候，老師在黑板上畫了幅畫。
16 . A Un report says that world population will pass six billion by the end of the twentieth century . 一份聯(lián)合國報告表明，到二十世紀末，全球人口將超過60億。
( 1 ) Un＝ ( the ) United Nations“聯(lián)合國”
( 2 ) pass 意為“超過”。例如：
Run faster , or Li Ming will pass you .
( 3 ) pass 通常還作“通過”、“經(jīng)過”之意。例如：
We all passed the exam last week .
17 . People say that by the year 2010 , it may be seven billion . 人們說，到 2010 年，世界人口可能達到 70 億。
( 1 ) by“到……為止，不遲于”。
( 2 ) 句中的 2010 是 the year 的同位語。例如：
the year 1949 一九四九年，the year 1997 一九九七年也可說 the year of 1949 , the year of 1997
這里的介詞 of 表示同位關系。
18 . There will not be enough space for anybody else . 再也沒有足夠的空間來容納任何其他的人了。
anybody 為不定代詞，副詞 else 修飾不定代詞必須后置。
19 . the more developed countries 比較發(fā)達的國家
the less developed countries 不太發(fā)達的國家
20 . Which country has the larger population , Canada or Australia ? 哪個國家人口多些，加拿大還是澳大利亞 ?
population 一詞指的是總人口 ( 見本單元 1 ) ，所以，說人口多就用 large population 或 big population , 反之就用 small population 。
21 . population ( in hundred million ) 人口 ( 以億為單位 )
介詞 in 表示“用……方式”。例如：
( 1 ) Answer my question in English , please ?
( 2 ) Look , the students are standing there in rows .
22 . There will not be enough space even to stand in on the earth . 地球上將連站立的空間都不夠。
( 1 ) 不定式 even to stand in 是 space 的定語，而 space 在邏輯上 ( 或意義上 ) 則是介詞 in 的賓語。這種結構中的介詞是不能沒有的，因為 stand 是不及物動詞，不能接賓語，要特別注意。
我們可以說 stand in space 而不能說 stand space 。
( 2 ) 當上面結構中不定式的動詞是及物動詞時，則不能用介詞。例如：
I've some important letters to write .
23 . 同義詞 hear 與 listen 的區(qū)別。
hear 與 listen 這兩個詞都是動詞，都有“聽”的意思。但意思有區(qū)別，用法也不同。
hear 是及物動詞，表示“聽見”，“蝗到”，可能是有意識的聽，也可能是無意誤解的聽。
Louder , please , I can't hear you .
We heard someone laughing in the next room .
hear 還可作不及物動詞，后接 of ( about ) 表示“聽別人說” ( 指間接聽到 ) ；后接from 意 思是“收到 ( 某人 ) 的來信”。如：
I have never heard of such a thing . 我從未聽說過這種事。
Have you still not heard from him ? 你還沒有收到的來信嗎 ?
listen 是不及物動詞，表示有意識或注意地“聽”，交不說明是否聽見的結果；必須加 to 才能接賓語。如：
He often listens to news on radio .
I listened but heard nothing . 我注意聽了，但什么也沒聽見。
24 . 相似詞 after , in , later 的區(qū)別
after 作介詞表示在“某時間之后”， ( 1 ) 它可以表示“在過去的一段時間之間”。 ( 2 ) after 后面不用將來時，而是用現(xiàn)在時態(tài)表示將來的含義。如：
She went after three days . 她是三天后走的。
I'll phone you after I arrive . ( or : after I have arrived . ) 我到了之后，給你打電話。
但不說：She will go after three days .
也不說：I'll phone you after I'll arrive .
in 表示從現(xiàn)在起，將來的某時間之后。如：
I will come and see you in five days . 五天以后我來看你。
later 用作副詞，常用在過去時的句子中，表示“一段時間之后”。如：
She came a few minutes later . 她幾分種后就來了。
later 也可用在一般將來時中。如：
You will realize your mistake later .
你以后會認識到你的錯誤。
I shall call on you three months later .
三個月后我來看望你。
25 . 同義詞 field , ground , earth , land 的區(qū)別
( 1 ) field ( 土地，田地 ) ，指可以耕種和種植農(nóng)作物的土地。
The peasants are working in the fields .
( 2 ) ground ( 地，土地，地面 ) ，主要指大地、陸地的表面，也可以指土壤、場
地、泥土。指陸地時，土地、沙地、水泥地都可用這個詞。
The little boy was lying on the ground .
( 3 ) earth ( 土，土地，泥土，地面 ) ，可用作“大地”，以別于天空。用作“地面”，以別于海、洋、大氣和天空。還可用作“泥土”，以別于堅硬的巖石。earth 還可作“地球”解。如：
The house is built of earth . 這房子是用土筑成的。
The earth is bigger than the moon . 地球比月亮大。
( 4 ) land ( 土地，地面，田地 ) ，作陸地、大地講時，是河流、海洋的相對用詞。用以指土地或土壤時，著重指它的性質、用途，即可耕種的田地。如：
Are you going by land or by sea ? 你走陸路或是海路 ?
Fish cannot live on land . 魚不能在陸地上生活。
He owns a lot of land , but he never works on the land . 他擁有許多土地，但他從不耕作。
26 . 數(shù)字表達法
注意英語和漢語在表示數(shù)字上的異同：
英語和漢語在表示“百”、“千”、“百萬”、“十億”時分別有相應的單詞，如 hundred ( 百 ) ，thousand ( 千 ) ，million ( 百萬 ) ，billion ( 十億 ) 。但在英語中，沒有單獨的詞表示“萬”和“十萬”，而要用“ten thousand”表示“萬”，用“one hundred thousand”表示“十萬”。例如：
數(shù)字 漢語 英語
100 一百 one hundred
1 000 一千 one thousand
10 000 一萬 ten thousand
100 000 十萬 one hundred thousand
1 000 000 一百萬 one million
10 000 000 一千萬 ten million
100 000 000 一億 one hundred million
1 000 000 000 十億 one billion
1 200 000 000 十二億 one billion and two hundred million
【 妙文賞析 】
A Foolish Man Buys Shoes
There was once a foolish man . One day he wanted to go to the market to buy a new pair of shoes . He first measured his feet with a ruler and then took a piece of thread the length of his feet on it . He was in such a hurry to set off that he left the thread of home .
At the market , when arriving at a shoe store , he felt in his pockets , but he only found that thread wasn't in . So he said to the shop assistant in a regretful voice , “I've left my measurement at home , so I don't know the size , I'll have to go back for it . ”With these words , he hurried off .
He hurried home for the thread and then ran back to the market . It took him a lot of time in the trip home and back . By the time he reached the market , it was almost dark and the market was already over . He had gone to all this trouble for nothing , failing to buy the shoes .
Then someone asked him , “Do you want to buy the shoes for yourself or for someone else ? ”
“For myself , of course ! ”he answered .
The man asked him , “Well , but haven't you brought your feet with you ? What do you need to bring the measurement for ? ”

單元語法發(fā)散思維
過去將來時態(tài)
過去將來時的動詞表示對過去某一時間來說將要發(fā)生的動作或呈現(xiàn)的狀態(tài)。這個時態(tài)常用在賓語從句中。過去將來時有以下幾種形式：
1. should / would + 動詞原形
He said he would be there before Sunday . 他說他星期天以前將在那里。 ( be 動詞肯定式 )
I hoped I should not go the next week . 我希望下星期我不去。 ( do 動詞的否定式 )
注意這個時態(tài)是一個相對的時態(tài)，立足于過去某時，從過去的觀點看未來。
2. was / were going + 動詞不定式
過去將來時的這種表達形式可以表示過去曾經(jīng)打算或計劃準備要做的事。如：
They told me that they were going to have a picnic . 他們告訴我他們將要舉行一次野餐。
They were going to have a meeting . 他們曾經(jīng)打算開個會。
過去將來時的這種形式可以表示過去將要發(fā)生或很有可能發(fā)生的事，但未實現(xiàn)的動作。
I was just going to ring him up when he came . 我剛要給他打電話，他就來了。 ( 電話沒打成 )
有時也用 was / were + coming 表示過去將來時，如：
I didn't know when they were coming again .
3. was / were + 動詞不定式
was / were about + 動詞不定式
Mary was to meet Jack at the street corner . 瑪麗將在街道拐角處同杰克見面。
We were about to leave when the telephone rang . 我們正要走，電話鈴響了。
