Even the most everyday activities can seem important. Robert Allen is now over 40. He was just a student at the time,

but remembers what he was doing when he heard the news. “It was a bright, sunny day,” Robert remembers. “We were having fun in the playground when the bell rang. Our teacher

asked us to stop what we were doing and listen. He told us the news: ‘Dr Martin Luther King died just 10 minutes ago!’

We couldn’t believe it!” School closed for the day, and Robert and his friends walked home together in silence.

Dr Martin Luther King’s murder took place about thirty years ago, before many Americans were born. However,

in more recent times, most Americans remember what they were doing when the World Trade Center in New York was destroyed by terrorists. Even the date - September 11, 2001 –

has meaning to most Americans.

be born

have meaning to sb. 对某人有意义

1.take place 与 happen 辨析

 take place 与 happen 都表示发生 , 都不能用于被动语态， 区别是： take place 用于有计划的事情的发生， happen 表示意外事情的发生。

如： 1 ） .  The accident   happened last night.   

  2 ） .   Great changes have taken place  in our hometown.

happen to do  意思是：碰巧。 今天早上我碰巧看见他。 I happened to see him this morning. 

那天碰巧天气好。

“be +vt.pp by+ 主动者” 是被动语态

Not all events in history are as terrible as this, of course. Many Americans also say they remember what they were doing when man first walked on the moon on July 20, 1969. In more recent history, most Chinese remember what they were doing when Yang Liwei became the first Chinese astronaut in space. Yang went into spaceon October 15, 2003. His flight around the Earth lasted about 22 hours. When he returned, he became a national hero in China, and became famous all over the world.

not all… （或： all…not ）表示 " 并非都…… " 、 " 不是所有的都……”例如： Not all men can be masters. (= All men cannot be masters.) 并非人人都能当头头。 Not all bamboo grows tall. (= Some bamboo grows tall) 并非所有的竹子都会长得很高。

祝大家学习愉快！
