字號:

Day5 No wrong numbers
    課文內(nèi)容:
    Mr James Scott has a garage in Silbury and now he has just bought another garage in Pinhurst. Pinhurst is only five miles from Silbury, but Mr Scott cannot get a telephone for his new garage, so he has just bought twelve pigeons. Yesterday, a pigeon carried the first message from Pinhurst to Silbury. The bird covered the distance in three minutes. Up to now, Mr Scott has sent a great many requests for spare parts and other urgent messages from one garage to the other. In this way, he has begun his own private telephone service.
    本文語法:現(xiàn)在完成時
    現(xiàn)在完成時結(jié)構(gòu):has/have+done(動詞的過去分詞形式)
    語法歸納:
    指過去已經(jīng)發(fā)生的動作,可能已經(jīng)完成,但對現(xiàn)在仍有影響,也可能還將延續(xù),強(qiáng)調(diào)對現(xiàn)在的影響和結(jié)果。在現(xiàn)在完成時句子中常常存在一些重要的時間標(biāo)志詞,這些標(biāo)志詞分別是:just剛剛,recently近,already已經(jīng),in the past過去,so far到目前為止,yet仍然,ever曾經(jīng),up till now到目前為止,since自從……以來,等等。
    參考譯文
    詹姆斯.斯科特先生在錫爾伯里有一個汽車修理部,現(xiàn)在他剛在平赫斯特買了另一個汽車修理部。平赫特離錫爾伯里只有5英里,但詹姆斯.斯科特先生未能為他新的汽車修理部搞到一部電話機(jī),所以他買了只鴿子。昨天,一只鴿子把第一封信從平赫特帶到錫爾伯里。這只鳥只用了3分鐘就飛完了全程。到目前為止,斯科特先生從一個汽車修理部向另一個發(fā)送了大量索取備件的信件和其他緊急函件。就這樣,他開始自己的私人“電話”業(yè)務(wù)。
