【课文讲解】
1、Though, at first, Byrd and his men were able to take a great many photographs of the mountains that lay
below, they soon ran into serious trouble.
（1）take a photograph of… 拍……的照片 Eg：He took a photograph of his house before he left home.
（2）run into trouble = get into trouble 遇到麻烦，陷入困境
Eg：Each time he ran into trouble, he asked his parents for help.
2、At one point, it seemed certain that their plane would crash.
（1）at one point 在某一地方，在某一时刻（point 也指时间上的某一点）
Eg：At one point, he made up his mind to become a painter.他曾一度下决心要当个画家。
（2）it 为先行主语，真正的主语为that 引导的从句。it 作先行主语时经常与seem，appear，look等连用：
Eg：It now looks certain that the meeting is going to be put off.
3、The plane was then able to rise and it cleared the mountains by 400 feet.
by表示“相差，以……之差”的意思
eg：I missed the train by ten minutes. 我晚了10分钟，没赶上火车。
He is younger than me by two years. 他比我小两岁。
【Key structures】Can and Be able to：用于表示请求别人允许或答复时。
（1）can有时可以表示可能性：eg: I can have lunch with you tomorrow if you like.
（2）在表示天生的或学到的能力时，can/could可用于现在时和过去时，can/could与be able to通常可以互
换，但表示将来的“能力”时，则用will be able to：
Eg：I could drive a car by the time I was sixteen.
--Can Jane swim yet?--No, but she’ll be able to swim in a few months’ time.
（3）在谈到说话时正在发生的事时，一般不用be able to，eg：Look! I can stand on my head.
（4）在表示成功地完成某一具体动作时，通常不用could，而用be able to；如果表示某一动作没有取得成
功，则可用couldn’t：
Eg：It’s pity that he couldn’t visit Mary.（动作未取得成功）
He was able to leave Europe before the war began. （动作取得成功）
【Special Difficulties】含有介词at 的词组：
（1） 表示时间的有：at first（开始时，最初） at once（马上，立刻） at present（目前，现在）
at last（最后，终于） at times（有时） at the moment（现在）
（2） 表示地点的有：at home（在家） at school（在学校）
（3） 表示程度的有：at least（至少） at any rate（不管怎样）；
（4） 其它词组：at heart（内心里，实际上） at a loss（困惑不解，不知怎么办）
