第一段词汇解析①journalist = reporter/correspondent。②well-known = famous。③instructed =ordered, commissioned; instruct sb. to do sth.=tell sb. formally to do sth.。④publish = print,issue。⑤surrounds = encircles。第二段词汇解析①set out to do sth.= decide and try to do sth.②fired = sacked, dismissed。③reluctantly = unwillingly。④not only 位于句首,后面所接的句子需要部分倒转,否定副词位于句首也要倒装,比如 never had I…。⑤allow sb. to do sth.不定式作 sb.的补语,但此句被动,所以作主语 he 的补语。⑥in which 引导的定语从句属于“介词+关系代词”,这种结构只能 which 指物, whom 指人。⑦while+doing sth.现在分词短语作时间状语相当于状语从句。Notes 学习笔记词组归纳1.go to extremes2.provide with3. lead to4. find out5.go to press6.fail to reply7.be arrested8.send to prison
