四、考点深挖 ② · 词族大表 + talent / apart / curious 用法
4.1 本课五组词族一条龙
词根
词族
invent
invent（v.）→ invention（n.）→ inventor（n. 人）
print
print（v./n.）→ printer（n. 打印机 / 印刷工）
life
life（n.）→ lifelong（adj. 终身的）
book
book（n.）→ bookseller（n. 书商，book + seller）
educate
educate（v.）→ education（n.）→ educational（adj.）
4.2 have a talent for / a man of many talents
表达
结构
例句
have a talent for
for + 名词 / doing（对……有天赋）

a man of many talents
of 短语作后置定语
He was a man of many talents.（他是个多才多艺的人。）
be talented in / at
= have a talent for
He is talented in science.
4.3 set … apart from / be curious about / predict
短语
含义
例句

4.4 易混辨析
对照
区别

teach oneself vs learn by oneself
同一意思两种说法，反身代词都随主语变
education 不可数
不说 an education / educations；说 two years of education
the next day vs tomorrow
过去故事的"第二天"用 the next day；直接引语 / 将来时用 tomorrow
五、教材联动（本课考点在已学课文里早就露过脸）
已学句子
出处
本课考点
We finished the model by ourselves.
9/17 Reading 深入
by + 反身代词——本课 teach himself by reading 的同款结构
Japan is one of the countries with the most earthquakes.
9/17 Reading 深入
one of the + 复数 + with 定语——与 Founding Fathers 同构
One of the best ways of making friends is to join a club.
9/11 Integration 2
one of the + 最高级 + 复数（谓语单数）
为什么 Reading 课要回头连旧课文：本课表面是"富兰克林传记"，实则把 U2 学过的 by oneself、one of 结构搬到人物阅读里；而 teach himself 正是 10/12 Grammar 反身代词那节课的"预演"。复习时把这 3 句串起来看，语法线就贯通了。
六、必背句 8 句（分层：基础 5 + 冲 A 3）
基础（笔记原句，默写级）
Franklin was one of the Founding Fathers of the United States.（富兰克林是美国开国元勋之一。）
He was a lifelong learner and a man of many talents.（他是一位终身学习者，也是一个有很多才能的人。）
He had a talent for science.（他很有科学天赋。）
He taught himself by reading.（他通过阅读自学。）
He stayed up very late in order to return the books early the next day.（他熬夜到很晚，为了第二天早点还书。）
冲 A（中考式升级句，作文直接用）
He was curious about everything, and he could even predict the weather.（他对一切好奇，甚至能预测天气。）—— be curious about + and 并列
What set Franklin apart from others was not his talent but his love of learning.（让富兰克林脱颖而出的不是天赋，而是他对学习的热爱。）—— What 主语从句 + not…but…
As a lifelong learner, he managed to teach himself by reading in order to keep learning.（作为一名终身学习者，他设法通过阅读自学，以便持续学习。）—— 同位语 + manage to do + in order to
七、中考考法速查（3 类题型）
题型
考什么
解题抓手
