Unit 2 The Olympic Games

重点句型

1. I lived in what you call “Ancient Greece” and I used to write about the Olympic Games a long time ago.
我生活在你们所说的“古希腊”，我曾经写过很久以前的奥林匹克运动会的情况。
what 引导宾语从句，并在从句中作call的宾语，“Ancient Greece”作宾补。what相当于the place that，因此what不能改为that，也不能改为where，因为where 只能作状语。
used to do过去常常（做）……；曾经……
易混辨析：used to do/be used to do/be used to doing
used to do sth. (would do) 过去经常做某事
be used to do 被用来做……(被动语态)
be/get/become used to sth./doing
=be/get/become accustomed to sth./doing 习惯于
My father used to smoke a lot.
我父亲过去烟抽得很厉害。（暗含“现在不抽了或抽得少了”的意思）
I used to live in the countryside with my grandmother.
我曾经和祖母在农村生活过。

句子结构为：nor/neither+系动词/助动词/情态动词+主语。此句型是一个倒装句，意为“……也不”，用于否定陈述句之后，说明后者的情况与前者相同。
联想拓展
用“so+助动词+主语”结构，表示肯定陈述句之后说明后者情况与前者相同，so it is with sb./It is the same with sb. 某人也是这样。so it is with sb./It is the same with sb.结构陈述两种或两种以上的情况，既可用于肯定，也可用于否定。
“否定词+助动词+主语”是常用的倒装句式，常用词：not, never, no, nowhere, neither, nor, hardly, seldom, little, rarely。
If you won’t go, neither/nor will I.
如果你不去，我也不去。
He don’t know about it. Nor do I.
他不了解这件事，我也不了解。

3. Women are not only allowed, but play a very important role in gymnastics, athletics, team sports and ...
妇女不仅被允许参加，而且她们还在体操、竞技和团队等比赛项目中起着非常重要的作用……
not only ...but (also) ... 意为“不仅……而且……”。当此结构连接两个并列主语时，谓语动词的单复数要和邻近的主语保持一致。若not only置于句首，其所在的分句需要采用部分倒装。

他不但说到了，而且也做到了。
