　　1. First of all, let us consider the earth as a planet revolving around the sun. (p1)

　　譯：首先，讓我們把地球看作是圍繞太陽運行的一顆行星。

　　句子分析：first of all首先，詞組：consider sth as sth把…當作…，與之類似的詞組還有：

　　look up sth as sth; review sth as sth; treat sth as sth…; revolving around the sun是現在分詞短語作定語修飾a planet。

　　2. These nine planets, together with the sun, make up what is called our solar system. (p1)

　　譯：這九大行星和太陽一起構成我們所說的太陽系。

　　句子分析：該句主語為：These nine planets;謂語是make up;what is called our solar system是賓語;together with the sun是狀語，而并非句子主語。關于該語法內容請見本講后面的grammar---主謂一致。

　　3. How this wonderful system started and what kept it working with such wonderful accuracy is largely a mystery …… (p1)

　　譯：這個奇妙的星系是怎樣起源的?什么使它保持極其精確的運轉，很大程度上現在還是一個謎。

　　譯：這些海洋之所以重要是因為他們影響著所流經區域的附近陸地的氣候，也是因為它們攜帶大量的微生物，植物，而這些構成魚類食品的一大部分。

　　句子分析：這是一個由because引導的主從復合句，其中close to where they flow是定語，修飾the land areas;詞組：large quantities of + c.n/u.n; which forms a large part of the food for fishes是定語從句修飾animal and vegetable life。其中life是指生命，不可數名詞。

　　譯：其中很重要的實在沒有對于與我們不同的人們和他們必須過的那種生活有大量的了解之前，我們應該避免對他們有先入為主的看法。

　　句子分析：Above all是狀語，意思是最重要的，首先;we主語;should avoid謂語;deciding what we think about people different from ourselves賓語;without first…狀語。different from ourselves是定語，修飾people; having learned動名詞的完成時態，表示這個動作早于deciding發生。重要詞組：above all; avoid doing; a great deal

　　Grammar 主謂一致

　　主謂一致是指句中的主語和謂語在人稱和數上須保持一致。我們一般遵從三個原則：

　　1、 語法一致的原則：是指主語為單數或復數時，其謂語動詞要與其相呼應。

　　2、 意義一致的原則：指謂語動詞的單復數取決于主語所表達的概念，而不取決于表面的語法標志，主要表現為某些集體名詞后可跟動詞單數或復數。如果這些集體名詞指整體概念時，謂語動詞用單數;指具體成員時用復數。

　　3、 就近原則：是指謂語動詞單復數取決于離它最近的詞語，而無須考慮其他的詞。
