His flight around the Earth lasted about 22 hours. 本单元语法讲解 过去进行时(Past Progressive Tense) 句型 S + was/were +V-ing- 例A:She was doing her homework at 8:30 yesterday evening. (昨天傍晚八点半她正在做家庭作业.) 例B:We were having supper at that time. (那个时候我们正在吃晚饭.) 解说 如例1所示.在单句中使用过去进行时来表达时必须把该动作正在进行中的时间表明清楚.否则就不合逻辑了.例如:I was taking a bath yesterday. (错) (昨天我正在洗澡--昨天24小时都正在洗澡吗?) 所以本句应该如例1来表达.或者用一般过去时表达如下: I took a bath yesterday. 如果由上下文的文意.或者对谈中的话意可以了解“动作正在进行中的时间 .单句里就使用过去进行时来表达是很普通的.例如: A:I called you up yesterday evening. B:Did you? At what time? A:At around ten o'clock . B:Oh, I was taking a bath then. 过去进行时在表达上常用的句式是如例2所示和另一个一般过去时的动作相搭配.请观察下面的图解说明: 过去有二动作A和B.在B动作发生时稍早发生的A动作正好在进行中.所以这种表达法通常都是复句.例如: When I got up this morning, Mother was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. (今天早上我起床时妈妈正在厨房里准备早餐.-“Mother-. 是主句.“when-. 是副词从句.) 常用于修饰过去进行时的时间副词:过去的某一定点时刻.then .all + 时间.“When-/While-/As- 等副词从句.etc. Unit 4 He said I was hard-working 【查看更多】

It's March, 2050.
Frank and Mary Smith wake up in their comfortable house in the morning and switch on the bedroom computer to get the latest news. They used to read the Times, but changed to electronic newspapers many years ago.                                                
There is the usual news about space: another space flight has returned from Mars and scientists have discovered a new planet. Then they turn to business news: the US dollar has risen greatly in Shanghai, one of the world's leading business centers. Mary tells the computer to buy 5,000 dollars, and there is a quick response that it has been done.
As they watch the screen, Mary orders one of the household robots to make coffee for them. Frank disappears into the study to join a video conference with his partners around the world. He is a computer engineer, working for several companies. This is his third job: he used to be in marketing and then television.
Mary has a quick look at the shopping channels - the usual selection of electric cars, household robots and cheap travel offers - before picking up the video phone to talk to her assistant. She also has a job and she is doing medical research. Both she and Frank used to have an office desk in London, but in 2014 they decided to move to the seaside and work from home.
Frank and Mary have one daughter, Louise, who also has her own workstation at home. She goes to school only one day a week, mainly to play with other students. Classrooms disappeared in 2030 because there was no longer any need for them: communications systems have made it much easier to learn at home.
Louise, now thirteen, is studying Chinese at present, which has become a world language as
important as English. Louise has many Chinese friends. They communicate by computer.
According to the family doctor, Louise will live to at least 130. Her wish is to work for a
few decades (十年) and then spend her time on music and painting.

Singapore’s public transport system (公共交通系统) is one of the best in the world, so you should have no problem finding your way around like a local (当地人). There are three main forms of public transport that you would find in any other major city—trains, buses and taxis.

TRAINS
Trains run from 6 a.m. to midnight. Single trip tickets start at 80 cents. If you buy an EZ-Link card for $15, you can ride the trains and buses all you like.
