    【篇一】Lesson3
    課文詳注 Further notes on the text
    1.A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian. 一位好客的服務員教了我?guī)拙湟獯罄Z。
    (1)雖然friendly是以-ly結(jié)尾,在拼法上與許多副詞一樣,但它卻是形容詞:
    He always greets me in a friendly way.
    他總是親切地和我打招呼。
    She gave me a friendly greeting.
    她友好地和我打了一下招呼。
    He is not very friendly to John.
    他對約翰不太友善。
    類似的形容詞有: brotherly, fatherly, manly, lovely, motherly 等。
    (2)a few可與復數(shù)可數(shù)名詞連用,表示肯定,含有some, a small number of(一些,少數(shù)幾個)的意思:
    The police would like to ask him a few questions.
    警察要問他一些問題。
    Mother is coming in a few days.
    媽媽過幾天就要來了。
    2.Then he lent me a book. 之后還借給我一本書。
    像send, buy, give等動詞一樣,lend可以有兩個賓語:一個直接賓語(通常指物),一個間接賓語(通常指人)。(cf. 本課語法)在這句話中,lend的直接賓語為a book,間接賓語為me。
    Would you lend me your pen?
    能把你的筆借我用一下嗎?
    Yesterday I lent my dictionary to Mary.
    昨天我把字典借給了瑪麗。
    3.…but I did not understand a word. ……但一個字也不懂。not…a的否定意義比單用not要強。課文的后一句加了"single",語氣更強。
    4.Every day I thought about postcards. 我每天都想著明信片的事。
    think about可以指某一段時間一直在想/考慮某事:
    I often think about the lovely holiday we had last year.
    我經(jīng)?;叵胛覀?nèi)ツ甓冗^的愉快的假期。
    What are you thinking about?
    你在想什么?
    I'm thinking about my friends.
    我在想我的朋友們。
    5.make a big decision, 作出一項重大決定。
    make/take a decision, 作出決定。這是個常用的詞語搭配,可以靈活使用:
    It was not easy for me to make/ take this decision.
    對我來說作出這項決定并不容易。
    You have made/taken a wrong decision.
    你作出了個錯誤的決定。
    Have you made/taken a decision?
    你決定了嗎?
    6.I spent the whole day in my room…我在房間里關了整整一天……
    (1)spend與表示時間的詞/短語連用時,意思為“花(時間)”、“度過”:
    We're going to spend three days in the country.
    我們打算到鄉(xiāng)下去3天。
    spend還可以表示“花錢”:
    If we spend all the money, we'll be poor again.
    如果我們把所有的錢都花光了,我們又會變窮的。
    I can't spend any more on this car.
    我不能再為這車花錢了。
    (2)whole表示“整整的”、“整個的”:
    a whole year一整年
    a whole bottle of milk一整瓶牛奶
    two whole weeks整整兩星期
    【篇二】Lesson 4  
    課文詳注 Further notes on the text
    1.He is working for a big firm and he has already visited a great number of different places in Australia. (他)正在為一家大公司工作,并且已經(jīng)去過澳大利亞的不少地方了。
    (1) work for指“在……上班/任職”:
    Where do you work?
    你在哪兒上班?
    I work for a shoe factory.
    我在一家鞋廠上班。
    表達“上班”這個意思時還可以說work at:
    She works at a department store.
    她在一家百貨商店上班。
    (2)a number of只能接可數(shù)名詞的復數(shù)形式。通常,number前有great, large, good, small, certain等形容詞,數(shù)量大小也隨之改變:
    A large/ great number of our students are Danish.
    我們的學生中有許多是丹麥人。
    There are a small number of spelling mistakes in your homework.
    你的家庭作業(yè)里有少數(shù)幾個拼寫錯誤。
    2.He will soon visit Darwin. 他不久還將到達爾文去。
    will 表示將來要發(fā)生的事。這句話的時態(tài)是一般將來時。(cf. 第12課語法)下一句話From there, he will fly to Perth也是一般將來時。
    3.My brother has never been abroad before, so he is finding this trip very exciting. 我弟弟以前從未出過國,因此,他覺得這次旅行非常激動人心。
    (1)這句話由兩個簡單句組成,后一句由連詞so引導,為表示結(jié)果的狀語從句。
    (2)find作“發(fā)現(xiàn)”、“發(fā)覺”講時賓語往往帶補足語(一般為形容詞),說明賓語的狀況、性質(zhì)等:
    I find the film very interesting.
    我覺得這電影很有趣。
    She found Ton's room very dirty.
    她發(fā)現(xiàn)湯姆的房間非常臟。
    She has already found herself wrong.
    她已經(jīng)發(fā)現(xiàn)自己錯了。
    需要注意的是,find一詞很少用于進行時態(tài),一般用于過去時、完成時及一般現(xiàn)在時等。
    【篇三】Lesson 5 
    自學導讀First things first
    課文詳注 Further notes on the text
    1.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.
    平赫斯特離錫爾伯里只有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,所以他買了12只鴿子。
    (1)這句話由3個部分組成。but引導的句子與前面的句子為并列關系,so引導的句子表示結(jié)果。
    (2)from 在這里表示距離上相隔,譯為“離”、“從”等:
    The school is a mile (away) from my house.
    學校離我家有一英里。
    She has been away from home for 5 days now.
    她離家已有5天了。
    2.Yesterday, a pigeon carried the first message from Pinhurst to Silbury. 昨天,一只鴿子把第一封信從平赫斯特帶到錫爾伯里。
    (1)from…to…表示從一個地方到另一個地方。如下文中的from one garage to the other。這個短語中順序比較重要,不能搞錯方向:
    He flew from Beijing to Moscow.
    他從北京坐飛機去莫斯科。
    He looked at the girl from head to foot.
    他把這姑娘從頭到腳打量了一下。
    The news spread from house to house.
    家家戶戶都得知了這條消息。
    (2)message在這里的意思是“(口頭或書面的)信息”、“信”:
    an oral/ written message 口信/便條
    Hers is a message for you from your sister.
    這是你姐姐/妹妹給你留的便條。
    John has gone to his office. Would you like to leave him a message?
    約翰去辦公室了。你愿意給他留個口信嗎?
    與message相關的另一個詞是 messenger,意為“送信人”、“信使”等。
    3.Up to now, Mr. Scott has sent a great many requests for spare parts and other urgent messages from one garage to the other.
    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。
    (1)這句話看起來很長,但卻是個簡單句。sent有兩個賓語,一是requests,二是messages。from one garage to the other是整個句子的狀語。
    (2)up to now相當于until/till now,意思是“迄今”、“到目前為止”,一般與現(xiàn)在完成時連用:
    Up to now, he has not been very hard-working.
    到目前為止,他一直不是很用功。
    Up to now, he has collected a good number of stamps.
    到目前為止,他已收集了許多郵票。
    (3)request作名詞“要求”、“請求”講時,往往需要補充說明其內(nèi)容,如課文中 requests for spare parts(索取備件的信件)。
    She sent a request for help to Gary.
    她向加里請求幫助。
    He granted my request for more time.
    他同意了我延長時間的請求。
    (4)a great many在這句話中為形容詞短語。many單獨使用時前面不加a,但加了great/ good等形容詞后,前面要加 a,動詞用復數(shù)形式:
    A great many trees were destroyed in the storm.
    好多樹在這場暴風雨中被毀壞了。
    a great many還可以作代詞短語用:
    He has read a great many of the books in this room.
    這房間的書他好多都讀過了。
    4.In this way, he has begun his own private‘telephone’ service.
    就這樣,他開始了自己的私人“電話”業(yè)務。
    (1)service作為不可數(shù)名詞時通常用于表示旅館、餐館以及商店等對旅客、顧客等的侍候、接待或服務;它作為可數(shù)名詞時可以表示為幫助他人所采取的行動或所做的工作:
    The service in that hotel is quite good.
    那家旅館的服務很不錯。
    You have done me a great service.
    你幫了我很大的忙。
    (2)在課文中,service的意思是“業(yè)務”、“公用事業(yè)”等。這類用法一般有: the mail service(郵政業(yè)務); the telephone service(電話業(yè)務);a travel service(旅行社);a news      service(通訊社)等??梢钥闯?,service既可以指公用事業(yè)的業(yè)務,也可以指辦這些業(yè)務的機構(gòu)。因此,課文中的“‘ telephone’service”實際上是個大詞,有一種幽默感。
