课文详注 Further notes on the text
1.What are you going to do this evening, Jill? 今晚你打算干什么,吉尔?
由every, this, next等词开头的时间状语前面通常不加介词。
2.I'm going to meet some friends, Dad. 我打算去看几个朋友,爸爸。
dad和mum前如没有所有格代词或名词所有格作修饰语,就特指自己的父母亲,要大写。father和mather也是如此。
3.Jill's eighteen years old, Tom. 吉尔都18岁了,汤姆。
表示“几岁”,一般由基数词+ year(s) old构成。在口语中,year(s)old往往可以省去,而只用数字表示年龄。如:
She is eighteen.
她18岁。
4.That's all right. 不用谢。
当别人表示感谢时,可以作出如是回答。还可以说You're welcome/Not at all/Don't mention it。
5.Bye-bye. 再见。
非正式的告别语,语气较随便。非正式的告别语还有 So long,See you或 I'll be seeing you等。正式的告别语是 Goodbye,而夜里向人告别时用 Good night。
语法 Grammar in use
1.反身代词
(1)当宾语和主语是同一个人时,一般需要用反身代词:
He cut himself when he was shaving this morning.
今天早晨刮胡子时,他把脸刮破了。
The old lady is talking to herself.
那位老妇人正在自言自语。
(2)反身代词也可与名词连用,表达“就是那个人而不是别人”的意思:
We went there ourselves.
我们自己去那儿了。
They wanted to finish the work themselves.
他们想靠自己来完成这项工作。
2.时间与日期
(1)钟点表达法
在某个钟点的1到30分钟内,我们常用 past表示,如8点20分时我们可以说twenty past eight;如果时间是在某个钟点的31分到下一个整点,我们则常用介词to,但要注意钟点及分钟的变换。如6点47分我们通常会将之换算为7点差13分,即 thirteen to seven。
以上两种情况也可以用直接读出钟点和分钟的方式来表达:
eight twenty 8点20分
six forty-seven 6点47分
表示在什么时间通常都需用介词 at:
He goes to school at 7. 30.
他7点半上学。
(2)通常使用介词 on表示星期几(如 on Monday在星期一)、一天中的某段时间(如 on Monday morning在星期一早上)、日期(如 on April 1st在4月1日)、星期几+日期(如 on Monday,April 1st在4月1日,星期一)、具体时间(如 on that day在那一天)、周年纪念日(如 on your birthday在你的生日)以及节日(如 on Christmas Day在圣诞节)等。
