Language points

1. The most interesting museum I’ve been to is the American Computer Museum.

多音节词和部分双音节形容词最高级加most构成，前面加the。如: the most beautiful girl

2. The old computers were much bigger.

much可修饰形容词比较级，表示“ ……得多”。

如: much richer

a little, even, a bit也可以修饰形容词比较级。

3. It’s unbelievable that technology has progressed in such a rapid way.

句中rapid意为“快速的；飞快的”，表达“发生或做得极快，用时短暂”，与fast,

quick同为近义词，但更加正式。

安全气囊急速膨起的力量可挽救成人的生命。

The force of the rapid inflation of airbags saves adult lives.

这种疾病的迅猛传播给社会大众带来了恐慌。

The rapid spread of the disease has threatened the public.

经常与rapid搭配使用的名词包括：change,

growth, increase, rise, decline, progress, development, improvement等。

注意：在rapid一词的使用中，最常见的是用于描述事物及环境变化的短时和快速。

4. I wonder how much more computers will be able to do in the future.

不知道将来电脑还能够做些什么事情呢。

1)wonder 表示“ (对某事)感到疑惑；想要知道；想弄明白；琢磨”，后面常接由what, how, who 或者if/whether引导的宾语从句。

e.g. I wonder how they’re getting on.

我想知道他们现在过得怎样。

I just wonder if they’ve arrived safely.

我就想知道他们是否安全抵达了。

2) 此句从句部分的原始结构是: How much more will computers be able to do in the future? 是对陈述句Computers will be able to do (much) more in the future.(电脑将来能够做更多的事情。)的提问。由于充当了宾语从句，疑问结构改成了陈述结构。

how much more computers will be able to do in the future, 即: 将助动词还原到陈述句的位置。

e.g. I don’t know when he will come.

我不知道他什么时候来。

I don’t know where he lives.

我不知道他住在哪里。

5. It also encourages governments and social groups to think about ways to…encourage sb. to do sth. 鼓励某人做某事

e.g. My father encouraged me to take part in the sports meeting.

父亲鼓励我参加运动会。

6. The tea art performances show how to make a perfect cup of tea with beautiful tea sets.

a perfect cup of tea意为“一杯好茶；一杯完美的茶水”。在英语中，当表示“量”的结构遇有描述性修饰，大多数情况下，人们习惯于将形容词置于表量名词(unit word)之前。

例如：

an easy piece of homework
