1．Have you ever been to an amusement park?
你去過露天游樂場嗎？
amusement park（美）兒童樂園；露天游樂場

theme, subject與topic的辨析
三個詞都有“題目，話題，主題”之意
subject是此意的常用普通詞；意廣；

5．A theme park is a collection of rides, exhibitions and other attractions that are based on a common theme.
主題公園是圍繞一個共同主題所設(shè)立的集車乘，展覽等吸引人的項目為一體的公園。
①a collection of意為“一批；大量”，其后接復(fù)數(shù)名詞，如果用作主語，謂語動詞常用復(fù)數(shù)形式。例如：

divide與separate的辨析
divide側(cè)重于把原來的整體分成若干部分；
separate把原來連在一起的或靠近的人或物分離開來。separate多與from一起搭配使用。
10．Having enjoyed the rides at the Headland, visitors can take the shuttle to the Lowland.
游客在高地車乘以后，可以坐穿梭車去低地。
having enjoyed the rides at the Headland是現(xiàn)在分詞的完成形式，在句中作狀語，強調(diào)enjoy這一動作在take之前發(fā)生。再如：
Having watered the vegetables, they began to pick the apples.

①整個句子是一個復(fù)雜的復(fù)合句，它含有狀語從句、賓語從句和定語從句。where引導(dǎo)地點狀語從句，因為rides不是表地點的先行詞。what引導(dǎo)賓語從句，they have seen…是定語從句，修飾things，關(guān)系代詞由于在從句中作賓語而被省略了。例如：
Please make marks where you have any questions.
請在你有問題的地方做記號。（where引導(dǎo)了一個地點狀語從句）
②go on exciting rides 進(jìn)行令人刺激的兜風(fēng)
go on 此處意為“去（訪問、旅行等）。再如：
go on a trip/ journey 去旅行 go on a visit 去訪問
go on a voyage 去航海 go on an outing 去郊游
12．Other roller coasters are inside a mountain or building so that you ride through darkness.
其他的過山車駛?cè)肷襟w或者大樓，兜風(fēng)中穿越黑暗。
so that在此引導(dǎo)一個結(jié)果狀語從句。要注意so that引導(dǎo)的結(jié)果狀語從句與其引導(dǎo)的目的狀語從句的區(qū)別。so that引導(dǎo)的目的狀語從句中通常有情態(tài)動詞may，can，might，could等，且多放在主句之后；so that引導(dǎo)的結(jié)果狀語從句不含情態(tài)動詞，且都放在主句之后。試比較：
We had to get up early so that we could catch the first bus.
We got up early, so that we caught the first bus.
我們起床起得很早，所以趕上了第一班公共汽車。（so that 引導(dǎo)結(jié)果狀語從句）
