Lesson 1A puma at large逃遁的美洲獅
Listen to the tape then answer the question below.
聽(tīng)錄音租正兄，然后回答清螞以下問(wèn)題。
Where must the puma have come from?
Pumas are large, cat-like animals which are found in America. When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London, they were not taken seriously. However, as the evidence began to accumulate, experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate, for the descriptions given by people who claimed to have seen the puma were extraordinarily similar.
The hunt for the puma began in a small village where a woman picking blackberries saw‘弊襲a large cat’only five yards away from her. It immediately ran away when she saw it, and experts confirmed that a puma will not attack a human being unless it is cornered. The search proved difficult, for the puma was often observed at one place in the morning and at another place twenty miles away in the evening. Wherever it went, it left behind it a trail of dead deer and small animals like rabbits. Paw prints were seen in a number of places and puma fur was found clinging to bushes. Several people complained of‘cat-like noises’at night and a businessman ona fishing trip saw the puma up a tree. The experts were now fully convinced that the animal was a puma, but where had it come from?As no pumas had been reported missing from any zoo in the country, this one must have been in the possession of a private collector and somehow managed to escape. The hunt went on for several weeks, but the puma was not caught. It is disturbing to think that a dangerous wild animal is still at large in the quiet countryside. New words and expressions 生詞和短語(yǔ)

Notes on the text 課文注釋
1at large是介詞短語(yǔ)，此處表示“逍遙自在”、“行動(dòng)自由”的意思。
2When reports came into London Zoo that a wild puma had been spotted forty-five miles south of London, 當(dāng)倫敦動(dòng)物園接到報(bào)告說(shuō)，在倫敦以南45英里的地方發(fā)現(xiàn)一頭野生美洲獅時(shí)。這個(gè)從句中以that引導(dǎo)的從句是reports的同位語(yǔ)，用于進(jìn)一步說(shuō)明報(bào)告的內(nèi)容。
3feel obliged to do sth. 是“感到不得不做某事”的意思。
4it left behind it a trail of, 它身后留下一串……。
a trail of作left的賓語(yǔ)，behind it是狀語(yǔ)，提到賓語(yǔ)之前是為了使句子結(jié)構(gòu)更緊湊。
5puma fur was found clinging to bushes中，clinging是現(xiàn)在分詞，此處作主語(yǔ)puma fur的主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)。下文中As no pumas had been reported missing…一句中，missing也是現(xiàn)在分詞作主語(yǔ)補(bǔ)足語(yǔ)。
6in the possession of, 為……所有。
參考譯文
美洲獅是一種體形似貓的大動(dòng)物，產(chǎn)于美洲。當(dāng)倫敦動(dòng)物園接到報(bào)告說(shuō)，在倫敦以南45英里處發(fā)現(xiàn)一只美洲獅時(shí)，這些報(bào)告并沒(méi)有受到重視。可是，隨著證據(jù)越來(lái)越多，動(dòng)物園的專家們感到有必要進(jìn)行一番調(diào)查，因?yàn)榉彩锹暦Q見(jiàn)到過(guò)美洲獅的人們所描述的情況竟是出奇地相似。
搜尋美洲獅的工作是從一座小村莊開(kāi)始的。那里的一位婦女在采摘黑莓時(shí)看見(jiàn)“一只大貓”，離她僅5碼遠(yuǎn)，她剛看見(jiàn)它，它就立刻逃走了。專家證實(shí)，美洲獅除非被逼得走投無(wú)路，是決不會(huì)傷人的。事實(shí)上搜尋工作很困難，因?yàn)槌３Ｊ窃绯吭诩椎匕l(fā)現(xiàn)那只美洲獅，晚上卻在20英里外的乙地發(fā)現(xiàn)它的蹤跡。無(wú)論它走到哪兒，一路上總會(huì)留下一串死鹿以及死兔子之類(lèi)的小動(dòng)物。在許多地方看見(jiàn)了爪印，灌木叢中也發(fā)現(xiàn)了粘在上面的美洲獅毛。有人抱怨說(shuō)夜里聽(tīng)見(jiàn)了“像貓一樣的叫聲”；一位商人去釣魚(yú)，看見(jiàn)那只美洲獅在樹(shù)上。專家們?nèi)缃褚呀?jīng)完全肯定那只動(dòng)物就是美洲獅，但它是從哪兒來(lái)的呢？由于全國(guó)動(dòng)物園沒(méi)有一家報(bào)告丟了美洲獅，因此那只美洲獅一定是某位私人收藏家豢養(yǎng)的，不知怎么設(shè)法逃出來(lái)了。搜尋工作進(jìn)行了好幾個(gè)星期，但始終未能逮住那只美洲獅。想到在寧?kù)o的鄉(xiāng)村里有一頭危險(xiǎn)的野獸繼續(xù)逍遙流竄，真令人擔(dān)心。

Key structures 關(guān)鍵句型

Exercise練習(xí)
Underline all the joining words in the passage. Note carefully how simple statements have been joined to make compound or complex statements.
Special difficulties 難點(diǎn)
過(guò)去曾有一種傳統(tǒng)的規(guī)定，認(rèn)為英文句子不允許以介詞結(jié)尾。現(xiàn)在，這種所謂的禁忌早以破除。在現(xiàn)代英語(yǔ)中，除正體書(shū)面語(yǔ)體外，以介詞結(jié)尾的句子很多，在口語(yǔ)中更為常見(jiàn)。
Where had it come from? (1. 14)
Instead of saying:
It is better to say:
About whom are you talking?
Who(m)are you talking about?
That is the film about which I told you.
That is the film I told you about.

然而，當(dāng)證據(jù)開(kāi)始不斷累積，動(dòng)物園的專家感到不得蘆纖脊不進(jìn)行調(diào)查，因?yàn)槁暦Q見(jiàn)過(guò)美洲豹的人們做出的描述驚人相似
experts from the Zoo felt obliged to investigate,
本句為豎啟中心句，主語(yǔ)
as the evidence began to accumulate本句為時(shí)間狀語(yǔ)。
for the descriptions given by people who claimed to have seen the puma were extraordinarily similar
本句為原因狀語(yǔ)。Who引導(dǎo)的是這個(gè)原因狀語(yǔ)中的定語(yǔ)從句，的確是個(gè)比較復(fù)雜的句子。我建議你背過(guò)就行。新概念2的小短文非常適陪滲合背誦，對(duì)你口語(yǔ)的提高會(huì)有很大幫助
題目問(wèn)你 是什么證據(jù)旦行慎使專家相信 在村子里出現(xiàn)的那個(gè)確實(shí)是美洲獅
一個(gè)女士見(jiàn)到了美洲獅 并模敬且沒(méi)有收到傷害。
（這就足以證明它出現(xiàn)過(guò)）
完了給你帶鉛解釋完我也暈了呵呵 這種題目不用那么較真 它只是幫助你理解課文
