二、佳句再现
1. After a long day, Zhang Tian finally got back to his small room, feeling tired. 漫长的一天过后，张天疲惫不堪，终于回到了自己的小窝。
feeling tired在句中作伴随状语。
现在分词短语和过去分词短语都可以做伴随状语，现在分词短语表示与主句的主语在逻辑上有主谓关系，即表主动意义；而过去分词短语则表示与主句的主语在逻辑上是动宾关系，即被动意义。
2. Coming to Guizhou Province to teach has been quite an experience for him. 来贵州教书对他来说是一次不寻常的体验。
Coming to Guizhou Province to teach在本句中作主语。动名词作主语一般表示经常性、习惯性的动作，谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。
比较：不定式作主语与动名词作主语是可以互换的，但是不定式作主语经常被用来表示具体的某一次的行为或将来的动作，强调动作本身；动名词作主语用来表示习惯性的、经常的动作，表示的时间概念不强，强调事情本身。
3. He had met wonderful teachers from small villages during his early school years and he was inspired by them to go and teach where he was needed the most. 在学校初期他遇见了一些来自小村庄的好教师，他被他们所鼓舞，到最需要的地方去教学。
be inspired by 被……鼓舞，被……激励。如:
He is inspired by the author"s enthusiasm.
他被作者的热情感染了。
4. However, not everything lived up to Zhang Tian’s hopes. 但是，不是每件事都像张天希望的那样。
live up to sth 符合(标准)。如:
Our children do try to live up to our expectations.
我们的孩子确实努力达到我们的期望。
5. The thought of leaving once flashed through his mind, but he quickly gave up on the idea and found ways to deal with the challenges. 离开的想法曾在脑中闪现过，但是他很快放弃了这个念头，并且找到了应对挑战的办法。
(1)flash through one"s mind 闪过某人的脑海。如:
A terrible thought flashed through my mind. 一个可怕的想法闪过我的脑海。
(2)give up放弃。如:
How can you give up your principles for that desire?
你怎么能为了那个欲望而放弃原则?
6. What made him feel satisfied was that his students were able to read, speak and write in English, and they became more confident in learning. 让他感到欣慰的是他的学生能够读英语、说英语和写英语，并且在学习上变得更自信。
what引导主语从句。what的意思是“所……的事/物”, 相当于the thing(s) that…, that which… 或those which…。例句：
What she saw frightened her.
她看到的事情吓了她一跳。
三、语法讲解：
-ed/-ing形容词
1. 动词-ed形式作形容词描述人的情感。
After a long day, Zhang Tian finally got back to his small room, feeling tired

2. 动词-ing形式作形容词描述情境、人或事物。
