unit 16 grade 1
1. catch fire the house caught fire when they were away. 在他们外出时房子着火了。she was standing to close to the fireplace and her dress caught fire. 她站得离壁炉太近了，衣服烧着了。
2. on fire on fire / catch fire 都是“着火”的意思，不过catch fire强调动作，on fire强调状态，如：look! the house is on fire.
3. look out look out！（当心、小心），比take care! 或be careful! 语气要强，往往用于某种紧急情况或可能出现危险的场合。look out! there’s danger in the forest. 后还可接for短语：look out for the rock in the water. 当心水里的石头。
4. put out 灭火 they tried their best to put out the fire. 常用被动语态：the forest fire was put out soon. 森林大火很快就被扑灭了。注：be out熄灭：the forest fire was out at last.
7. in that case 如果那样 it may rain tomorrow. in that case, you'd better try another day. 明天可能下雨。那你最好改天在试。in that case, you wouldn't have a pan on fire. you'd have a house on fire! 如果是那样的话，那你就不是使一个油锅着火，而会使一座房子失火了！对比：in case 以防（万一），如：take your raincoat in case it rains. 携带雨衣，以防下雨。
8. belong to 属于（无被动语态）。these books belong to the school library. 这些书是校图书馆的。who does this belong to? 这是谁的？he doesn’t feel he belongs here. 他觉得自己是外人。
9. close to close在这儿是形容词，意思是靠近，to是一个介词，后面要加名词，即：close to+宾语。如：there is a bank close to our school.我校附近有家银行。there were so many people in the street watching the fire that firefighters could not get close to the building. 街道上围观大火的人太多了，消防人员无法接近大楼。
10. lose one’s life 失去生命。死（die）还有一种婉转的说法：pass away 去世。the dog saved the boy but lost its own life. 这狗救了这小孩，但却失去了自己的生命。thousands of lives were lost in the earthquake. 在地震中，成千上万的人失去了生命。
1. the smoke from the fire was too thick for them to be able to land on the roof. 火烟太浓，直升飞机无法在楼顶降落。too…to… 太…以至于不能… 如：my brother is too young to dress himself. 弟弟太小了，不会自己穿衣服。这句话还可以用so...that...表达：my brother is so young that he cannot dress himself. 注意不定式前的for：it is too later for him to do anything now.
2. the fire lasted about four hours before the firefighters could control it. 大火持续了大约4小时，消防人员才将火情控制。注意before的用法：①the teacher asked us some questions before he came to the new lesson. 老师先问了我们几个问题，然后才上新课。②the bell rang before i could finish writing the composition. 我还没有写好作文铃就响了。
