be disappointed with：后接“人或物”，侧重对“某人/某物本身”失望
例句：I am disappointed with my new phone. 我对我的新手机感到失望。
三、核心句型
（一）重点句型（课文原句+结构解析）
1. 主语 + promise(s) to do sth. 某人许诺做某事。
课文例句：Yes, I promised to be back before 9 tonight.
（没错，我承诺过今晚九点前回来。）
结构解析：promise作动词，后接不定式作宾语；主语是人，时态可根据语境用一般现在时、一般过去时。
仿写：She promises to help me with my English.（她许诺帮我学英语。）
主语 + be + disappointed at (doing) sth. 某人对（做）某事感到失望。
课文例句：Back then, I was so disappointed at being too short and failing to get on the basketball team.
（那时候，我因为个子太矮没能进入篮球队，感到非常失望。）
结构解析：disappointed是形容词，at后可接名词或动名词；so修饰disappointed，加强语气。
仿写：He is disappointed at not passing the exam.
（他对没有通过考试感到失望。）
主语 + can't help doing sth. 某人忍不住做某事。
课文原句：I couldn't help laughing at my heartbreaking words then.
（当时那些令人心碎的话让我忍不住笑了出来。）
结构解析：can't help后必须接动名词，不能接不定式；couldn't是can't的过去式，用于过去语境。
仿写：She couldn't help crying when she heard the news.
（听到这个消息，她忍不住哭了。）
主语 + be + attached to sth. 某物被系/贴在某物上（一般被动语态）。
课文例句：I checked and saw that a yellow band was attached to her wrist.
（我检查了一下，发现她的手腕上系着一个黄色的手环。）
结构解析：attach的被动形式，sth be attached to sth，侧重“被附着”的状态；本句是一般过去时的被动语态。
仿写：A note was attached to the box.（盒子上贴了一张便条。）
It may fall upon us at any stage in our lives.（在生活的任何阶段，它都可能发生在我们身上。）
结构解析：may是情态动词，后接动词原形fall；fall upon后接sb，意为“降临到某人身上”；at any stage意为“在任何阶段”。
仿写：Hard times may fall upon us, but we should keep brave.（困难可能会降临到我们身上，但我们应该保持勇敢。）
（二）易错句型提醒
1. can't help doing sth 与 can't help (to) do sth 区分：
can't help doing sth（忍不住做某事）；can't help (to) do sth（不能帮忙做某事）
2.promise的用法陷阱：
promise to do sth（许诺做某事），不能说promise doing sth；
keep one's promise（守信），one's要随主语变化（如keep my promise, keep her promise）。
四、核心语法：一般过去时的被动语态
（一）语法定义
表示“过去某个时间里，某事被某人做了”，侧重动作的承受者（主语是动作的承受者），而不是动作的执行者；常与表示过去的时间状语连用（如yesterday, last night, just now, then等），本单元多结合课文语境（话剧、日记）使用，无需强调执行者时可省略by短语。
（二）基本结构（必背）
1. 肯定句：主语（动作承受者） + was / were + 动词过去分词 + （by + 动作执行者）。
课文例句：I waited with her until she was taken home by a policewoman.
（我一直陪着她，直到她被一位女警察送回家。）
解析：主语she是动作（take home）的承受者；was taken是“was + 过去分词”（take的过去分词是taken）；by a policewoman是动作执行者，可省略。
2.否定句：主语 + was / were + not + 动词过去分词 + （by + 动作执行者）。
例句：The letter was not sent yesterday.（这封信昨天没有被寄出去。）
缩写：was not → wasn't；were not → weren't
3.一般疑问句：Was / Were + 主语 + 动词过去分词 + （by + 动作执行者）
例句：Was the yellow band attached to her wrist
（那个黄色的手环是系在她的手腕上吗？）
回答：Yes, 主语 + was / were. / No, 主语 + wasn't / weren't.
4. be动词的选择：主语是单数（可数名词单数、不可数名词、人称代词单数he/she/it），用was；主语是复数（可数名词复数、人称代词复数we/you/they），用were。
例句对比：A yellow band was attached（单数主语，用was）；
They were taken home（复数主语，用were）。
（三）语法巩固练习
1. 填空练习：用动词的适当被动形式填空。

(答案：was sent)

From My Pain to My Gain
Last year, I failed to get into the school singing competition. I was deeply disappointed at the result. I couldn't help crying after hearing the news.
To take my mind off the sadness, I started learning to play the guitar. Surprisingly, I soon fell in love with it. Things took a different turn when my music teacher invited me to play in a school concert. It was a great success!
Now I truly understand: "When one door closes, another opens." My failure led me to discover a new talent. This experience taught me that persistence is the key to overcoming disappointment.

四、核心语法：一般过去时的被动语态
（一）语法定义
表示“过去某个时间里，某事被某人做了”，侧重动作的承受者（主语是动作的承受者），而不是动作的执行者；常与表示过去的时间状语连用（如yesterday, last night, just now, then等），本单元多结合课文语境（话剧、日记）使用，无需强调执行者时可省略by短语。
（二）基本结构（必背）
1. 肯定句：主语（动作承受者） + was / were + 动词过去分词 + （by + 动作执行者）。
课文例句：I waited with her until she was taken home by a policewoman.
（我一直陪着她，直到她被一位女警察送回家。）
解析：主语she是动作（take home）的承受者；was taken是“was + 过去分词”（take的过去分词是taken）；by a policewoman是动作执行者，可省略。
2.否定句：主语 + was / were + not + 动词过去分词 + （by + 动作执行者）。
例句：The letter was not sent yesterday.（这封信昨天没有被寄出去。）
缩写：was not → wasn't；were not → weren't
3.一般疑问句：Was / Were + 主语 + 动词过去分词 + （by + 动作执行者）
例句：Was the yellow band attached to her wrist
（那个黄色的手环是系在她的手腕上吗？）
回答：Yes, 主语 + was / were. / No, 主语 + wasn't / weren't.
4. be动词的选择：主语是单数（可数名词单数、不可数名词、人称代词单数he/she/it），用 ；主语是复数（可数名词复数、人称代词复数we/you/they），用 。
例句对比：A yellow band attached；
They taken home。
（三）语法巩固练习
1. 填空练习：用动词的适当被动形式填空。

He (promise) to help me, but he didn‘t come.

参考范文：
From My Pain to My Gain
Last year, I failed to get into the school singing competition. I was deeply disappointed at the result. I couldn't help crying after hearing the news.
To take my mind off the sadness, I started learning to play the guitar. Surprisingly, I soon fell in love with it. Things took a different turn when my music teacher invited me to play in a school concert. It was a great success!
Now I truly understand: "When one door closes, another opens." My failure led me to discover a new talent. This experience taught me that persistence is the key to overcoming disappointment.
