# 34 · 破案“神速”

### 第1段

Dan Robinson has been worried all week. Last Tuesday he received a letter from the local police. In the letter he was asked to call at the station. Dan wondered why he was wanted by the police, but he went to the station yesterday and now he is not worried anymore. At the station, he was told by a smiling policeman that his bicycle had been found. Five days ago, the policeman told him, the bicycle was picked up in a small village four hundred miles away. It is now being sent to his home by train. Dan was most surprised when he heard the news. He was amused too, because he never expected the bicycle to be found. It was stolen twenty years ago when Dan was a boy of fifteen!

中文理解：丹·罗宾逊担心了一整周。上星期二，他收到当地警方的信，要他去警察局一趟。 他不明白警方为什么找他，可昨天还是去了。现在他已经不担心了。 在警察局，一位笑眯眯的警察告诉他，他的自行车找到了。五天前，警方在四百英里外的一个小村庄发现了它。 他的自行车正由火车运回来。 丹听了十分惊讶，也觉得好笑，因为他从没指望还能找回来——那辆车是二十年前、他十五岁时被偷走的！

* **received a letter from**：收到……的信；from引出寄信人；receive侧重收到而非写信。

* **call at**：到某处短暂拜访；表示到某处短暂拜访；拜访某人通常用 call on someone。

* **not worried anymore**：不再担心；not和anymore共同表示不再，别漏掉not。

* **picked up**：被发现并找回；本课说失窃自行车在远处被发现并找回；不是接送乘客，也不是骑车出发。

* **being sent to**：正被送往；being标记进行中的被动，to引出目的地。

* **by train**：乘火车；by后用交通工具单数，不加冠词。

#### Dan Robinson has been worried all week.

简单句，主系表结构.

#### Last Tuesday he received a letter from the local police.

简单句，主谓宾结构.

#### In the letter he was asked to call at the station.

简单句，主谓 + 主补结构，这里使用了被动语态，原本的宾语补足语在此变成了主语补足语，主动语态为ask him …

\[关键句型] 复习被动语态，可以参考第10课的内容.

#### Dan wondered why he was wanted by the police, but he went to the station yesterday and now he is not worried anymore.

并列复合句，but 连接前后两句，前句为主谓 + why 引导的宾语从句结构，该从句为主谓结构；后句为并列句，and 连接前后两句，前句为主谓结构，后句为主系表结构.

#### At the station, he was told by a smiling policeman that his bicycle had been found.

复合句，主句主谓 + that 引导的宾语从句结构，从句则是主谓结构. 主句和从句都用了本课所复习的被动语态.

#### Five days ago, the policeman told him, the bicycle was picked up in a small village four hundred miles away.

简单句，主谓结构，这里警察告诉他的句子整体作为插入语，不过该插入成分正好是一个完整的句子，我们予以标记成分，否则逗号不能单独连接两个完整的句子.

还有一种理解是把后面这句看作是插入语的宾语从句，但是省略了引导词that，即 the policeman told him (that) the bicycle was…也讲得通，不过不能有逗号.

#### It is now being sent to his home by train.

简单句，主谓结构，用了被动语态，而且是现在进行时的被动语态.

#### Dan was most surprised when he heard the news.

复合句，主句主系表结构，后面是when 引导的时间状语从句，主谓宾结构.

#### He was amused too, because he never expected the bicycle to be found.

复合句，主句主系表结构，后面是because 引导的原因状语从句，该从句为主谓宾 + 宾补结构.

#### It was stolen twenty years ago when Dan was a boy of fifteen!

复合句，主句主谓结构，被动语态，被偷了，后面是when 引导的时间状语从句，为主系表结构.

## 学完这一课

先沿这条线复述《破案“神速”》：一封来信让人担心 → 去了才放下心 → 自行车找到了 → 正用火车送回来 → 竟是二十年前丢的。再借一个结构讲自己的事：把本课一个被动句改成有明确执行者的主动句，比较关注点有什么变化。
