課文詳注 Further notes on the text
    1.do the football pools,下足球賽的賭注。
    football pools 是英國流行的一種賭博方式,靠在足球比賽結果上的賭注來決定輸贏。
    2.What will you do if you win a lot of money?如果你贏了許多錢,你打算做什么呢?
    if you win a lot of money是一個表示條件的狀語從句。在英文中,條件是指某一事情(狀語從句中的動作)實現(xiàn)之后其他事情(主句中的動作)才能發(fā)生,通常譯為“假如”。如果條件狀語從句用于詢問或談論十分可能發(fā)生的事情,那么條件狀語從句中常用一般現(xiàn)在時,而主句中則用一般將來時。 a lot of既可與可數(shù)名詞也可與不可數(shù)名詞連用。(請參見本課語法部分。)
    3.buy sb. sth.= buy sth.sb.。
    4.see the world,看世界。
    travel round the world,周游世界。
    二者有異曲同工之處。
    5. What'll we do then?那時我們怎么辦呢?
    句中then意為“到那時”(指將來)。
    6.a pleasant dream,一個美好的夢。
    7.depend on,取決于,依靠。
    語法 Grammar in use
    第1類條件句
    如果我們認為將來的事件是可能發(fā)生的,就可用第1類條件句去描述將會發(fā)生什么事或不會發(fā)生什么事。其基本結構是:If +一般現(xiàn)在時+將來時(或情態(tài)助動詞),如:
    If it rains tomorrow, we won't go to the seaside.
    如果明天下雨,我們就不去海邊。
    if從句中的現(xiàn)在時表示需具備的條件,主句中的shall/will將來時表示可能的結果。具備的條件是真實的,可能真的下雨。
    如果是這樣,它就會有真實的結果。這就是為什么這樣的陳述句常被稱為“開放”條件句或“真實”條件句的原因。事實上,在第1類條件句中,一切現(xiàn)在時態(tài)都能用在if之后,而不僅僅是一般現(xiàn)在時。請看例句:
    If he falls ,he'll hurt himself.
    如果他摔倒了,他會傷著自己的。
    If you don't hurry ,we'll miss the train.
    你要是不趕緊點兒,我們就會誤了火車。
    If you feel better, you can get up.
    你要是感覺好些了的話,你就能起床了。
    If I am better tomorrow, I will get up.
    如果我明天感覺好些了,我就起床下地。
    If I have a headache, I will take an aspirin.
    我要是頭疼的話就會服用一片阿司匹林。
    If I can afford it, I will buy it.
    要是我買得起的話我就會買它。
