1.Look at the map of China and the names of countries,islands and seas beyond China.

看看中國地圖以及除中國外的其他國家、島嶼和海洋的名字。

beyond在本句中為介詞,意為“在……的那邊,遠於;超出;除……之外。”如:

The apples on the tree are beyond my reach.

我夠不著樹上的蘋果。

I know nothing of it beyond what he told me.

2.The East China Sea lies to the east of Zhejiang Province.

表示方法

①通常用動詞be和lie,be後接介詞短語,lie後既可接介詞短語,又可接副詞短語。

如:

Japan is to the east of China.

Japan lies to the east of China.

Japan lies east of China.

②有三個介詞可分別表示方位:to,in,on。to表示在另一個地點的外部,譯成“在…以…,在……面”;in表示範圍內;on表示接壤。例如:

Mexico is in the south of North America.

墨西哥位於北美的南部。

注意:表示某一山脈或界線,以東、以西、以南、以北必須用to。on還可表示“在……河畔”。

Nanjing lies on the Changjiang River. 南京位於長江之濱。

Guangdong lies to the south of Hubei. 廣東在湖北以南。

Guangdong lies on the south of Hunan. 廣東在湖南以南。(與湖南接壤)

③有時可以把副詞短語放在句首加動詞lie或stand,表示方位.(構成完全倒裝句)。

3.Where is your great-grand father on your father’s side from?

你父親的曾祖父是哪裡人?

①on your father’s side意為“父親的,你父親的”。side在此意為“血統,世系,家系”。如:

②be from = come from來自,是哪裡人。如:

He is / comes from Japan. 他是日本人。

4.It is made up of two large islands:North Island and South Island.

它(紐西蘭)由兩大島嶼組成:北島和南島。

be made up of…由……組成(指由個體組成某個整體,此時為被動結構。)

make up…組成…(此時為主動結構。)如:

Our class is made up of 32 boys and 20 girls. = Thirty-two boys and twenty girls make up our class.
