# 成功者的故事

## 课文学习台 {#study}

### 第1段

Yesterday afternoon Frank Hawkins was telling me about his experiences as a young man. Before he retired, Frank was the head of a very large business company, but as a boy he used to work in a small shop. It was his job to repair bicycles and at that time he used to work fourteen hours a day. He saved money for years and in 1958 he bought a small workshop of his own. In his twenties Frank used to make spare parts for aeroplanes. At that time he had two helpers. In a few years the small workshop had become a large factory which employed seven hundred and twenty-eight people. Frank smiled when he remembered his hard early years and the long road to success. He was still smiling when the door opened and his wife came in. She wanted him to repair their grandson's bicycle!

中文理解：昨天下午弗兰克·霍金斯向我讲述了他年轻时的经历。在退休前，弗兰克是一家非常大的商业公司的经理，但他小时候却在一家小铺里做工。他那时的工作是修理自行车，并且通常一天工作14个小时。他靠多年积蓄，于1958年买下了一个自己的小铺子。20多岁的时候，弗兰克曾生产飞机零配件。那时他有两个帮手。几年之后，小铺子已经发展成了一个雇有728人的大工厂。弗兰克回想起早年的艰难岁月和漫长的成功之路，不禁笑了。他正笑着的时候门开了，他的妻子走了进来。她叫他去修理孙子的自行车。

* **used to**：过去常常 / 习惯于；used to do 说过去习惯；be used to 后说已习惯的事，别混用。

#### 1. Frank Hawkins was telling me…

简单句，主谓宾结构，过去进行时.

#### 2. Before he retired, Frank was the head, but he used to work.

并列复合句，but 连接前后两句，前句为复合句，主句为主系表结构，句首是before 引导的时间状语从句；后句为主谓结构.

\[关键句型] used to do 表示过去经常发生的事情.

#### 3. It was his job to repair bicycles and he used to work.

并列句，and 连接前后两句，前句中it 为形式主语，to repair 动词不定式短语为实际主语；后句为简单句，主谓结构.

#### 4. He saved money and he bought a workshop.

并列句，and 连接前后两句，均为主谓宾结构. 因为一直是在讲述他过去的事情，所以均用了动词的过去式，save 转为saved；buy 转为bought.

#### 5. Frank used to make spare parts.

简单句，主谓宾结构. 仍然是表示过去经常做的事情.

#### 6. he had two helpers.

简单句，主谓宾结构. 本句的have 是实义动词，就是指拥有，不是助动词，因此表示过去的情况，用过去式，have 转为had.

#### 7. the small workshop had become a factory which employed people.

复合句，主句主系表结构，后面是which 引导的定语从句，主谓宾结构. 主句中 had become 是had done，过去完成时，这里become-became-become，用的是过去分词.

#### 8. Frank smiled when he remembered…

复合句，主句主谓结构，后面是when 引导的时间状语从句，主谓宾结构.

#### 9. He was smiling when the door opened and his wife came in.

复合句，主句为主谓结构，后面是when 引导的时间状语从句，该从句为并列句，均为主谓结构.

#### 10. She wanted him to repair…

简单句，主谓宾 + 宾补结构.
