1、 新概念第三册自学导读 Lesson57课文解释 1 I had expected to be near my objective by now，我本以为这时已经接近目的地了。 “expect的过去完成时+不定式的一般式”，表示过去想做而未做的事。 2 become（be）absorbed in，作“用心致志于”、“全神贯注于”讲。 3 lack for nothing，什么也不缺。 4 he made me promise to go on my own，他要我同意肯定单独回家乡一趟。 promise是不带to的动词不定式，作宾语补足语；on one”s own作“单独”、“靠自己的力气”解
2、。 5 It was not thatat all. 和下文的 Butterritory，这里两个句子实际用的是一个完整的句型：not thatbutthat（不是由于而是由于）。 参考译文 我停下车，让汽车发动机冷却一下，同时查看一下地图。我本想离目的地已经不远，但四周一切对我仍很生疏。我5岁那年，父亲就带我出了国，那是18年前的事了。当时我母亲在一次事故中惨死，父亲未能很快从哀思与孤独中恢复过来。他身边的一切都有母亲的影子不断地勾起他的伤感。于是他打算移居他国。在这个新的国家里，父亲用心致志地为我们俩开创一种新的生活，渐渐地不难过了。父亲没有再娶，因此，我在没有母亲的环境里长大成人。但我却
3、什么都不缺，他既当父亲又当母亲。他总想将来回国看看，但却不愿长期住下去，由于他与我一样已经把根深深地扎在了异国的土地上。但是，他想看一看家乡父老乡亲，为我的母亲扫墓。就在他打算回国的前几个月，他突然身患绝症。他知道自己已奄奄一息，于是他要我同意肯定单独回家乡一趟。 我下飞机后租了一辆车，并买了一本详尽的地图册。在乡间行车途中，我觉得它特别有用，但快到家了，我倒觉得它没什么用了。这倒并非是我背熟了地图，而是父亲曾具体给我讲了，在过了离家乡最近的那个小镇后，在每一个路标处可见到些什么。因此，我信任这段路对我来说会是很熟识的。唉，实际我错了，我现在迷路了。 我看了看地图，又查了一下里程表。从小镇出来
4、，我走了10英里。照父亲的说法，我面前应是一个山谷，有农场与村舍，还可远远望见老家村子里的教堂的尖顶。可现在我却看不到山谷，看不见农舍，也看不见教堂尖顶，观察的只是一片湖泊。我想肯定是在什么地方拐错了弯儿。于是我驾车返回小镇，重新按路线行驶。结果又来到刚刚那个拐弯处。惊奇的是那个湖没有在地图上标出。我感到自己就像平常作梦那样迷模糊糊地闯进了恶梦境地。就像在恶梦里一样，见不到一个人可以帮忙我。不过，我是幸运的，正值我走投无路之时，从天涯消失一个骑马的人向我骑来。等他走近了，我问他去老家的路。他说那村子已经没有了。我想他肯定误会了我的意思，于是又说了一遍村庄的名字。这次他用手指了一下那个湖。村庄已
5、不复存在，由于已经为水所淹，山谷也被水沉没了。这不是一个自然湖泊，是一座人工修建的水库。 Multiple choice questions 多项选择题 Choose the correct answers to the following questions.
