UNIT 3　DIVERSE CULTURES
We are all different， which is great because we are all unique.Without diversity， life would be very boring. —Catherine Pulsifer 我们都各不相同，这很好，因为我们每个人都是独一无二的。失去了多样性，生活将极其枯燥乏味。 ——凯瑟琳·普尔西弗
Cultural differences should not separate us from each other but rather cultural diversity brings a collective strength that can benefit all of humanity. —Robert Alan 文化差异不应使我们彼此隔绝，而应使文化多样性凝聚集体力量，造福全人类。 ——罗伯特·艾伦
It is time for parents to teach young people that in diversity， there is beauty， and there is strength. —Maya Angelou 现在是时候让父母们告诉年轻人，多样性中既有美，也有力量。 ——玛雅·安吉罗 It is not our differences that divide us.It is our inability to recognise， accept， and celebrate those differences. —Audre Lorde 使我们分裂的不是我们的分歧。是我们没有能力认识、接受和赞美这些差异。 ——奥德丽·洛德
2 / 2Section Ⅱ　Reading and Thinking
　　 Wednesday， 21 June
　　[1]Today was my first day back in San Francisco after camping in the Redwood Forest and visiting the wine country of Napa Valley.[2]I have to admit① that it definitely② feels good to be back in the city again.And what a city — a city that was able to rebuild itself after the earthquake that occurred③in 1906.[3]There are so many beautiful old buildings — many sitting on top of big hills， offering great views of the city， the ocean， and the Golden Gate Bridge.
　　My hotel is near downtown④， in the Mission⑤ District⑥， one of the oldest parts of the city.Many of the people living here are from Mexico or Central America.This district used to⑦ be a poor area of town， but is now a centre for art， music， and food.In fact⑧， an art movement called the “Mission School” started here.It’s influenced by graffiti art and comic⑨ art.I walked around looking at the street art for a few hours.It was quite modern and lively.Afterwards⑩， I ate some delicious Mexican-Chinese noodles from a food truck.A real mix of cultures here！
　　[1]动词-ing形式camping ...和visiting ...作介词after的宾语。
　　[2]it是形式主语，真正的主语是动词不定式短语to be back in the city again。
　　[3]many sitting on top of big hills为独立主格结构， offering ...是动词-ing短语作伴随状语。
　　In the afternoon， I headed to a local museum that showed the historical changes in California.I learnt that America got California from Mexico in 1848.In the same year， gold was discovered near San Francisco， which started a gold rush.[4]Over 300，000 people came from all over the world to seek their fortune， and San Francisco quickly became a big city. Many Chinese arrived during this period.To earn a living， some opened up shops and restaurants in Chinatown.Many others found jobs on farms， joined the gold rush， or went to build the railway that joined California to the eastern region of the country.[5]The museum did a really good job of showing how America was built by immigrants from different countries and cultures.When these immigrants left their countries， they carried a bit of home in their hearts， and built a new home here.
　　This evening， I went to Chinatown.[6] There were so many good cafés and restaurants to choose from.I selected a Cantonese restaurant that served its food on beautiful china plates.What great food！
　　That’s enough for today.Tomorrow evening， I’m going to a jazz bar in the Richmond District.Can’t wait ！
　　[4]to seek their fortune为动词不定式短语作目的状语。
　　[5]how引导宾语从句，作动词-ing形式showing的宾语。
　　[6]本句为 “There be＋sb/sth＋非谓语动词”结构。

【参考译文】
　　6月21日，星期三
　　在红杉林露营并参观了纳帕谷酒乡后，今天是我回到旧金山的第一天。我得承认，再次回到城里的感觉实在是太棒了。多么神奇的一座城市啊——一座1906年大地震后重建的城市。这里有众多美丽的古建筑——不少坐落于大山之巅，城市、大海和金门大桥美景尽收眼底。
　　我住的旅馆靠近市中心，位于教会区，这是旧金山最古老的街区之一。这里的许多居民来自墨西哥或中美洲。这个区过去是城里的一个贫困区域，而现在是艺术、音乐和美食中心。事实上，一场名为“教会派”的艺术运动就发源于此。这一运动深受涂鸦艺术和漫画艺术的影响。一连好几个小时，我四处走着，欣赏街头艺术。这些艺术十分现代，也很生动。随后，我吃了一份快餐车售卖的美味的墨西哥式中国面。这真是文化的交融啊！
　　下午，我前往当地一家博物馆参观，博物馆展示了加利福尼亚的历史变迁。我了解到，1848年美国从墨西哥手中得到加利福尼亚。同年，旧金山附近发现黄金，引发了淘金热。世界各地30多万人蜂拥而至，在这里谋出路，旧金山迅速成为一座大都市。很多中国人也在这个时期来到此地。为了谋生，有些人在唐人街开商店、开餐馆。更多的人则在农场打工、加入淘金大军，或者参与修建加州通往美国东部的铁路。这家博物馆完美地展示了美国是如何由不同国家和文化的移民建设起来的。这些移民离开他们的祖国时，心中装着一片故土，最终在这里建立了新家园。
　　今晚，我去了唐人街。这里有很多不错的咖啡馆和餐馆可供选择。我挑了一家粤菜馆，他们端出来的菜肴是放在精美的瓷盘子上的。太好吃了！
　　今天就写到这里吧。明天晚上，我要去里士满区的一家爵士酒吧。我已经迫不及待了！

Step 1　品教材课文 Step 2　析写作手法
WELCOME TO CHINATOWN！ 　　The Chinatown in San Francisco is the biggest in America， and also the oldest.It is a very popular tourist draw that receives more visitors each year than even the Golden Gate Bridge.The climate is mild all year round， meaning it is always a good time to visit. 　　Historically， Chinese immigrants settled in the area during the railroad construction and gold rush period.What started as a residential area for Chinese immigrants then turned into a centre for Chinese culture.The majority of residents in Chinatown are still ethnic Chinese， many of whom do not speak English fluently.This allows visitors to experience a real taste of China. 　　Most of Chinatown was destroyed in the 1906 earthquake， but the city and residents rebuilt it， taking care to include lots of Chinese architecture.Traditionally， visitors enter Chinatown through the legendary Dragon Gate， which was built using materials donated from China.Other famous sites include the Tin How Temple and Bank of Canton， to name but a few.Visitors can also spend hours just exploring the interesting sights， smells， and sounds of China.Portsmouth Square is also a key site， being the centre of Chinatown.It has a long and famous history， with the author Robert Louis Stevenson having spent much time writing there.These days， the square is a great place to see traditional Chinese culture in real life， such as games of Chinese chess， and people practising tai chi. 　　The stores in the Chinatown offer a unique range of souvenirs， goods， and clothing.All kinds of traditional Chinese herbal medicine can be found， too， and there are Chinese tea stores， where visitors can taste and buy varieties of Chinese tea. 　　But perhaps what many tourists and San Franciscans treasure most about Chinatown is its food.There is Chinese food to suit everyone’s taste， with traditional dishes from all over China. 　　Chinatowns are an important part of the diverse culture of the USA.They allow visitors who have never been to China to experience traditional Chinese culture first hand. 学语言： 1.连接词： （1）第二段作者在介绍唐人街的历史时运用了then， still等词，使句子之间衔接紧密，逻辑鲜明，语意连贯； （2）第三段作者在介绍唐人街及震后重建过程中运用了but， and， also等词，使句子之间逻辑性强，层次清晰，衔接巧妙； （3）第四至六段作者运用了and， But等连接词，使句子结构紧凑，逻辑清晰，过渡自然。 2.高频词汇： a real taste of、 a unique range of、 varieties of 等词的运用，彰显了作者较强的语言运用能力。 3.高级句式： （1）第一段第二句It is a very popular tourist draw that receives more visitors each year than even the Golden Gate Bridge.及第三段第二句Traditionally， visitors enter Chinatown through the legendary Dragon Gate， which was built using materials donated from China.等多处使用了定语从句，避免了多个单句的平铺直叙，增强了表达效果。 （2）第二段第二句What started as a residential area for Chinese immigrants then turned into a centre for Chinese culture.运用了What引导的主语从句，彰显了作者对语言的驾驭能力。 学结构：

　　旧金山的唐人街在全美规模最大、历史最为悠久，是一个炙手可热的旅游景点，每年接待的游客甚至比金门大桥还多。这里全年气候温和，这意味着任何时候都适宜来游览。
　　历史上，在修筑铁路和淘金热时期，来自中国的移民定居于此。这里原本是中国移民的居住地，后来变成一个中国文化中心。如今唐人街的绝大多数居民依旧是华人，他们中很多人英语说得并不流利，这能让游客体验到正宗的中国味。
　　唐人街的大部分建筑毁于1906年的大地震，但是市政府和居民将它重建，并且特地融入诸多中国建筑元素。传统上，游客从具有传奇色彩的龙门走入唐人街，龙门的建筑材料是由中国捐赠的。其他的著名景点还有天后古庙、广东银行等，不胜枚举。游客亦可花上数小时，一探此地的中国味道与美景声色。作为唐人街的中心，花园角广场也是一个重要景点。广场历史悠久，声名远扬，作家罗伯特·路易斯·史蒂文森曾长居于此进行创作。如今，花园角广场已经成为游客的一个好去处，可以欣赏现实生活里的中国传统文化，如中国象棋和打太极拳。
　　唐人街的商店出售各式特色纪念品、货物和衣服。此外，各种各样的中草药也随处可见，还有中国茶叶商店，游客可以品尝和购买各种中国茶叶。
　　然而，很多游客和旧金山人最钟爱的或许是唐人街的美食。这里有着来自中国各地的传统菜肴，各种口味，应有尽有。
　　唐人街是美国多元文化的一个重要组成部分，未曾踏足中国的游客可以在唐人街近距离感受中国传统文化。

M：Hey， Sarah！ This year I’m going to the rock festival for all three days！
W：Oh， lucky you， Leo！ Are you going with your cousin again？
M：Not this year.My brother has promised to take me there now.My sister’s too busy with her college work.
W：How will you get there？
M：We wanted to drive， but Dad said no.And it’s too far from the city for us to cycle there， but there are special buses so we’ll take those.
W：What do you have to take with you？
M：Just a tent and clothes， really.We’ll need lots of water， but we’ll buy that and all our meals there.Hey！ Come with us！
W：Maybe I will！
（Text 2）
M：Hey， Jenny， the Summer Festival is happening in the park.Don’t you know about it？
W：No.Is it a music festival？
M：Well， in fact， it’s a festival of food and art.
W：Oh， that sounds interesting.When does it begin？
M：On Friday.Last year it finished on Saturday， but this year the festival will run for three days， not two.
W：Great！ I’d like to go.Is it open all day？
M：The gates open at eleven in the morning， and they stay open until midnight.
W：I don’t think I’ll stay that long.But I might go in the afternoon at about three o’clock and stay there until seven o’clock.
M：Well， please don’t come by car.The city center will be very busy.Take the bus.The No.15 goes to the park every 15 minutes.
W：Thanks a lot for reminding.
（Text 3）
W：The festival is great， isn’t it？
M：Yes.I have never seen such a good art festival before.
W：But I have a question — why is the festival only held in winter rather than in other seasons？ I prefer it is held in summer.
M：Summer？ It’s not a good idea.
W：Why not？
M：As there are many travelers in summer， if there is an art festival， the town will be crowded.But in winter， there aren’t enough travelers.For the town’s development， the government organises the festival.
W：It sounds more reasonable.
（Text 4）
W：Attention， please！ Now I will give you a brief introduction to the Winter Festival.It is a free event for all people to enjoy， and is organised by a team of volunteers.The first Winter Festival was introduced the year before last.Sadly due to a lack of money， no festival was held last year.This year the government may provide 15，000 to the festival.They also persuaded the businessmen around the town to offer the rest 5，000.
There will be a free art exhibition on Friday 18， Saturday 19 and Sunday 20 December in the Center Park of the town.The opening hours are from 10：00 a.m.to 4：00 p.m.， and there is an opening night only on Friday， from 7：30 p.m.to 10：00 p.m.Different from other exhibitions， this art exhibition is really a special one because the public will have the chance to watch the paintings which are from the town’s school.And all the paintings are created by the students.
It is great that the Festival is going to host a wonderful sound of music in the Main Exhibition Hall this year.This program aims to show some of the musical talents that we have in town.Everyone watching the performance had better not wear formal clothes， but fancy dress.And in the program， you will hear classical music， pop music， rock music and operas.

　　W：Aaron， a 12-year-old boy， loved playing on the open land near his home.The land was wet and forested， and made a home for animals and many different plants.It made the perfect place for him to get to know and study nature.All of a sudden， it was announced that the empty land would be improved by building a very large complex of apartments on it.The plants would be removed， and the animals would escape and most probably die.When Aaron heard the news， he was not happy.He was worried that polluted water would run from the apartments into the ponds.From the ponds， water would run into the water supply that served the people of that area.
　　Aaron wrote down clearly all the research he had done about the area， and how the apartment block would affect the local environment.He sent letters to members of government and television reporters.Finally， Aaron prevented the apartments from being built， and thus helped save his environment.The land remained a safe place for animals and plants.
　　Although Aaron was only 12， he had the courage and wisdom of a person much older.Aaron’s teachers described him as gentle， shy and motivated.

W：I tried to phone you yesterday.
M：Oh， sorry.I was busy all day and then I went to London in the evening for a meal with some friends.
W：Did you take your car？
M：I left it at home.Parking is such a problem.But the underground was closed for repairs so I had to take the bus.It was quite slow.
W：Did you go to your favourite Spanish restaurant？
M：I was hoping to try some Mexican food but my friends booked a table in a Chinese place.
W：Was it expensive？
M：Quite cheap actually， and the food was very good — but it’s only a small restaurant so a lot of people had to wait for tables — and it was quite noisy.
W：You didn’t stay there and talk afterwards then！
M：We went for a walk along the river.I had a really good evening.
（Text 2）
M：Hi， Julia.Do you like the Christmas carols we’re singing in choir this month？
W：Not really， to be honest.I’m really unfamiliar with most of them.In China， the carols we really know are Jingle Bells and Santa Claus is Coming to Town.I don’t really understand the words of any other ones.
M：Do you want me to explain the words to you？ I think it’s important to understand the words you’re singing.
W：Yeah， that sounds great！ Let’s start with We Wish You a Merry Christmas.What in the world is figgy pudding， and why are people asking for it？
M：That is a weird line！ Figgy pudding is a traditional British Christmas dessert.It kind of looks like a cake.It’s not that common today， but people used to give a figgy pudding to each other at Christmas hundreds of years ago.
（Text 3）
W：Everything is ready.Please come to the dining room.
M：Wow， what a marvelous table you’ve got here！ I’ve long heard Chinese dishes are well-known all over the world for their colour， aroma and taste.
W：I hope you like my cooking.
M：I think you are not only a good teacher but also a good cook.
W：Thanks for the compliment.Let’s begin with chicken which will bring luck to the guests， according to Chinese culture.
M：It sounds interesting.In that case， I’ll eat more.
W：Please help yourself to it.
M：Thanks.I like fried kidney best among Chinese food.
W：Have a try.
M：Well， it’s really unusual！ It’s quite tender and delicious！
（Text 4）
　　W：If you’re listening to this， then you’re probably studying English.Maybe you speak a couple of other languages too.But what are the British like when it comes to learning languages？ According to a survey published by the European Commission， the British are officially the worst language learners in Europe — 62 percent of them can’t speak any other language apart from their own.While 38 percent of Britons speak at least one foreign language， only 18 percent speak two.Learning a foreign language isn’t a popular option at school in Britain； children start studying a foreign language at the age of 11 and may give up completely at 14.
　　So， why don’t young people continue with languages at school？ Research suggests that students think it is more difficult to get good grades in languages than in other subjects such as science or history.The government is now looking at different ways to improve language learning.One idea is to start much younger and introduce foreign languages from the age of five.Another plan is to give school children more choices and expand the range of languages taught to include Arabic， Mandarin and Urdu.

Dear Editor，
　　We had a discussion over whether it’s necessary to carry out the outer space exploration at a class meeting the other day.Some of us think it important to research the outer space.First， people can get a better understanding of the outer space through their explorations.Second， new resources can be found in space for humans to use and it will bring about new living space for human lives.
　　However， others don’t believe so.In their opinion， not only does this kind of exploration cost too much money but it’s also very dangerous for astronauts to do such work.
　　In my opinion， such explorations into the outer space are worthwhile.
Yours，
Li Hua

M：Can you give me a lift to my office this morning？
W：Uh， Carl.Why are you always asking me for that？
M：I’m sorry.I could take the bus， but then I’d have to leave so early！ If you give me a ride， I can sleep for an extra thirty minutes.
W：Well， I have to go to a concert today， and I hate to rush in advance.Why not ask Mom for a ride or drive your own car？
M：You know I want to.But I have to save money on gas.I only make ten dollars an hour.And I asked Mom， but she’ll have to go to the airport to pick up her client.
W：Well， OK.I’ll do it this time， but only this once.
M：Thanks！
（Text 2）
M：Tina， come in.
W：Thanks！What a beautiful flat！ Where did you get all these things？
M：Well， my father bought the CD player， and the other things were presents from my family， too.My brother gave me that red sofa.It was in his flat with two red chairs， but it was too big.He’s still got the chairs.
W：And what about the table that the CD player’s on？
M：My sister bought a new table and chairs when she got married.This is her old one.
W：And this desk looks really old.
M：Yeah， it was my grandfather’s desk when he was a student.He gave me that and my grandmother gave me that mirror over there on the wall.
W：What about your mother？
M：She bought me those bookshelves.My brother helped me put them on the wall.We put up the mirror at the same time.Could you help me clean the bookshelves now？
W：Of course.
（Text 3）
W：I’m sorry for being late.I left home early.But the traffic is getting increasingly crowded.
M：Well， it doesn’t matter.Traffic jams in Shanghai are very common.For me， I’d like to take the subway.It saves a lot of time and money.
W：I can’t agree with you more.I’ll try it next time.Oh， I’m really a bit hungry.
M：You can have a look at the menu first.
W：Wow， everything looks absolutely delicious.My mouth is watering.
M：I’ve been here several times.The environment is quite clean.
W：Oh， yes.The price is also reasonable.
（Text 4）
M：If I could go back in history and live when I like， I’d like to relive a period I’ve already lived — the 1960s.I was in my twenties， and everything was being renewed.You really felt anything was possible.Meeting people was the thing， and you went to coffee bars where you met friends and spent the evening.The cinema， the theater， all that was very exciting with new things coming out.In fact， we seemed to be out all the time！ I don’t really remember working — of course， I was a student — or sitting around at home very much.It was the first time ordinary people started going out to eat.We were beginning to be adventurous about food， but we were more interested in meeting people.And dress， yes， that was the revolution.I mean， girls went around in really short skirts.Men were in jeans， and could wear their hair long， too.It was a wonderful period.It was like living in an age you could never have imagined， and that never has come back.We didn’t have much money， but it didn’t matter.And there were plenty of opportunities to do whatever you felt like doing.

（2）句①⑤为　　　　句中的省略。
（3）句③为　　　　句中的省略。
（4）句②为　　　　句中的省略。
　　为了避免重复，或为了使句子更简练，在一些句子中常常省去一个或某几个成分，这种语法现象在英语中叫作省略。在英语句子中，常见的省略情况有以下几种：
一、简单句中的省略
1.省略主语：一般情况下，主语是不能省略的，但在祈使句和其他不容易引起歧义的情况下，特别是在口语中，主语常常省略，主要是祈使句中的you和疑问句中的主语。
（It） Looks like rain now.
现在（天）看起来要下雨。
（You） Be sure not to make any noise.
（你）一定不要制造出任何噪声。
2.省略宾语：当上、下或前、后两个句子的宾语一致时，通常省略宾语。
He has a knowledge of first aid but his friend doesn’t （have a knowledge of first aid）.
他具备急救知识，但他的朋友不具备。
She washed （the shirt）， ironed （the shirt）， and folded the shirt.
她洗了（衬衫）， 并且把它熨好、叠好。
3.省略主语和谓语（或谓语的一部分）：在某些具体的场合下，主语和谓语都很明确，此时为了简化或显得亲切等，可将主语和谓语（或谓语的一部分）同时省略，只剩下表语、宾语、状语或其他成分。
（You come） This way， please.
请这边走。（省略了主语和谓语）
（Have you） Got any ink？
你有墨水吗？（省略了主语和谓语的一部分）
【即时演练1】　用“＝”划掉句中可以省略的部分（忽略大小写）
①I see you tomorrow.
②—Are you feeling better now？
—I am feeling much better now.
③The lightning flashed and the thunder crashed.
④I consider him to be lazy.
⑤Today I met her at the barber’s shop.
⑥—Are you a teacher？
—No， but I used to be a teacher.
⑦The heavy rain prevented him from coming.
二、并列句中的省略
1.在并列句中，后面分句中与前面分句相同的部分常常省去，以避免重复。
When summer comes， the day is getting longer and longer， and the night （is getting） shorter and shorter.
当夏天来临，白天变得越来越长，夜晚变得越来越短。
My brother likes sports and I （like） music.
我弟弟喜欢体育，我喜欢音乐。
Jeff broke two eggs into a plate and （Jeff） added in some milk.
杰夫在盘子里打了两个鸡蛋，并加了一些牛奶。
2.有时由于上下文语境很明显，后一分句中的一些词语也可省略。
They tried their best but （they tried） in vain.
他们尽力了，但是白费劲。
（Give me） One more chance and I’ll surely succeed.
再给我一次机会，我一定会成功。
名师点津
在并列句中，后面的分句可以省略与前面分句中相同的成分。
Tom picked up a wallet in the road and （Tom） handed it to a policeman.
汤姆在马路上捡到一个钱包并把它交给了警察。
三、复合句中的省略
1.状语从句中的省略
（1）状语从句的主语和主句的主语相同或从句主语是it， 且从句谓语是系动词be的某种形式时，从句的主语和系动词可以同时省略。
（2）从句与主句中的相同部分也可以省略。
While （I was） walking along the street， I heard my name called.
当我在街上散步时，我听到有人叫我的名字。
When （it is） heated， ice can be turned into water.冰被加热后，可以变成水。
If （it is） possible， you can reply to me as soon as possible.
如果可能的话，你可以尽快回复我。
2.定语从句中的省略
关系代词在定语从句中作宾语且前面无介词时，可以省略关系代词。
My husband and I agreed they were the best fruit （that） we had ever eaten.
我丈夫和我都认为它们是我们吃过的最好的水果。
The way （in which/that） he speaks to us is really annoying.
他对我们讲话的方式真是令人讨厌。
3.宾语从句中的省略
及物动词后接宾语从句时，连接词that一般可以省略；但如果及物动词接两个或两个以上that引导的宾语从句，那么只有第一个that可以省略。
We hope （that） such attention will excite a greater interest in the scientific and scholarly study of emotion.
我们希望这样的关注能激发人们对情感科学和学术研究的更大兴趣。
He said （that） the text was very important and that we should learn it by heart.
他说这篇课文很重要，我们应该用心学习。
【即时演练2】　写出下列句中可以省略的部分
①I believe that she will help you and that you will succeed. 　　　　　　　
②Is this the reason that he explained at the meeting for his carelessness in his work？ 　　　　　　　
③Whenever it is possible， he will come to my help. 　　　　　　　
四、其他情况的省略
1.动词不定式的省略
（1）当动词不定式在形容词afraid， anxious， eager， glad， happy， ready， willing等后作状语时，常省略与前句重复的to后面的内容。
You can’t force him to answer the question if he’s not ready to （answer the question）.
如果他没有准备好回答这个问题，你不能强迫他。
（2）某些使役动词（如make， let， have等）和感官动词（如see， watch， notice， observe， hear等）后面作宾语补足语的动词不定式须省略to；但若这些动词用于被动语态时，则不能省略to。
We often hear her sing an English song in the classroom.
→She is often heard to sing an English song in the classroom.
我们经常听见她在教室里唱英文歌。
（3）作介词but， except， beside的宾语，且前面有实义动词do的某种形式时，后面的动词不定式（短语）常省略to。
All he could do was nothing but wait and see.
他所能做的只有等着瞧。
（4）当动词不定式在be going to， be able to， have to， ought to， used to后作复合谓语时，动词不定式可以省略。
They didn’t visit their parents as much as they ought to （visit their parents）.
他们应该多看望父母，但他们没有。
2.使用so， not等时的省略
①—Can you finish your work today？
—I think so./I don’t think so./I think not.
——你今天能完成工作吗？
——我认为能。/我认为不能。
②—The boys are not doing a good job at all， are they？
—I guess not.
——男孩们工作做得一点儿也不好，是吗？
——我猜是没做好。
句①中so相当于I can finish my work today；not相当于I can’t finish my work today；句②中第二个not相当于the boys are not doing a good job。
3.介词的省略
一些与动词、名词或形容词搭配的介词常常可以省略，而保留介词后的动词-ing形式。常见结构如下：
（1）have difficulty/trouble （in） doing sth
（2）be busy （in） doing sth
（3）spend some time （in） doing sth
（4）stop/prevent sb （from） doing sth
The heavy rain prevented him （from） arriving there on time.
大雨使得他没能按时到达那里。
