Unit15 The necklace一、课文背景知识新时代,人们不仅要求吃好,而且还要不停地表现自己等。在追求的同时,千万不要忘了项链的故事。本剧通过三幕情景向我们讲述了这个故事。第一幕 1870 年,在巴黎的一个公园里,jeanne 正坐在公园里,Mathilde 向她走去。可是相互之间不认识。第二幕:10 年前,在 Mathilde 和 pierre Loisel 的家里。一队夫妇被邀请参加舞会,心情特别激动,为了一时的快乐他们借项链等,可谁知项链丢失了。之后苦苦的10年可谓悲惨!第三幕:在公园,Mathilde 继续给 jeanne 讲叙着自己的故事,在随后的十年里,终于把帐还清了。可是,借的项链不是真正的钻石项链,它根本就不值钱。项链里的石头是用玻璃做成的。最多值 500 法郎。二、疑难详解1.

(=He passed the exam. ) 他设法通过了考试。He tried to pass the exam but failed. 他尽力想通过考试但失败了。He tried to pass the exam and he did it. 他尽力通过考试,并且他做到了。
