I was having dinner at a restaurant when Tony Steele came in. Tony worked in a lawyer's office years ago, but he is now working at a bank. He gets a good salary, but he always borrows money from his friends and never pays it back. Tony saw me and came and sat at the same table. He has never borrowed money from me. While he was eating, I asked him to lend me twenty pounds. To my surprise, he gave me the money immediately. 'I have never borrowed any money from you,' Tony said, 'so now you can pay for my dinner!'

I said hello to him this morning.

You must say sorry to somebody.

5、He will be away for two months.

瞬间动词不是不能用完成时态, 而是指不能与段时间连用, 一旦要用段时间就要将其变为 “系表结构” 即 “be + 形容词或介词短语构成” 

He has been away for two hours.

=He left two hours ago.点时间

有的动词可用be+形容词系表结构表状态来代替

arrive= be here/there ;leave= be away ;die = be dead ;

【Text】

I had an amusing experience last year. After I had left a small village in the south of France, I drove on to the next town. On the way, a young man waved to me. I stopped and he asked me for a lift. As soon as he had got into the car, I said good morning to him in French and he replied in the same language. Apart from a few words, I do not know any French at all. Neither of us spoke during the journey. I had nearly reached the town, when the young man suddenly said, very slowly, "Do you speak English?' As I soon learnt, he was English himself!'

参考译文

去年我有过一次有趣的经历. 在离开法国南部的一个小村庄后, 我继续驶往下一个城镇. 途中, 一个青年人向我招手. 我把车停下, 他向我提出要求搭车. 他一上车, 我就用法语向他问早上好, 他也同样用法语回答我. 除了个别几个单词外, 我根本不会法语. 旅途中我们谁也没讲话. 就要到达那个镇时, 那青年突然开了口, 慢慢地说道 : “你会讲英语吗?”我很快了解到, 他自己就是个英国人!

【课文讲解】

1、After I had left a small village in the south of France, I drove on to the next town.

after引导的从句如果一个是过去时,一个是过去完成时,那一定是从句用过去完成时;before引导的从句表示“在……之前”,主句发生在从句之前, 主句用过去完成时。

drive on     继续开往(on加在动词的后面表示继续)

My heart will go on 《我心永恒》

drive to     开车去某地 

副词on紧跟在动词后面时可以表示“向前”、“继续下去”等意义:

  He talked on until everybody had gone.      他滔滔不绝地讲到大家都走了。

  I was reading when my friend called. After he had gone, I went on to read.

  我朋友来看我时我正在看书。他走了以后我便继续看书。

表达方位的表达方式一共有3个介词, in(在……里面),on(接壤),to(没有相接的, 是相离的)

A is to the east of B     A在B的东方(A与B不相接)

A is on the east of B     A在B的东方(A与B接壤)

A is in the east of B     A在B的东方(A在B的里面)

2、On the way, a young man waved to me.

on the way     在路上, 在途中

wave to sb.    冲某人挥手

3、As soon as he had got into the car, I said good morning to him in French and he replied in the same language.

as soon as     一……就……,后面一定要加一个句子(时间状语从句), 强调两个动作几乎是连在一起的,“一” 后面的先发生

As soon as I had entered the room,I took off my coat at once.

As soon as I had received the letter,I ringed/called him back.

只要是状语从句, 一旦遇到将来时, 变为一般现在时

As soon as you arrive,you must call me.  你一到就打我电话

表示用某种语言作为交际手段时介词用in,表示讲某种语言时可以不加介词。

I speak English. I say a word in Chinese.

That book is written in German.

reply 要想加宾语要加 to (+要回答的内容),而in the same language 在句中作状语, 不是replay所应回答的问题(宾语), 故用in

4、Apart from a few words, I do not know any French at all.

apart from…      除……以外

not … at all    一点都不,表强调

I don't like it.

I don't like it at all.

5、I had nearly reached the town, when the young man suddenly said, very slowly, "Do you speak English?'

nearly    将要

when的翻译要看当时的具体情况, 在这里译为“就在此时”

I had nearly reached home when I found my mother standing there.

Do you speak English?  你说英语吗? 你是说英语国家的人吗?(问的是一个事实,不是问会说英语吗) 

Do you swim?   你去游泳吗?  

Can you swim?  你会游泳吗?

6、As I soon learnt, he was English himself!'

I learn  我得知; I know  我知道(我本来就知道)

As+主语+动词,从句 (As my mother said/As I heard/ As I learnt)    正如……

As we know,the New Concept English is very good.  正如我们所知…… 

As I think,it is the coldest day in the year.

As he said, English is easy to learn.

himself反身代词单独放在句尾, 起强调作用

I read English myself.

【Key structures】 

过去完成时

过去完成时:由had+过去分词构成,它表示过去某时或某动作发生之前已经完成的动作或情况,即“较早的过去”。过去完成时一定要以一个过去时态作铺垫, 这个动作一定要发生在had done之后。

在用过去完成时态的句子中,常用连词when,after,as soon as,until,by that time等。常与现在完成时连用的副词如already,just,never,never…before也常与过去完成时连用,以强调事件发生的先后次序:

  I didn’t know that she was a famous actress until you had told me.

The boys loved the zoo. They had never seen wild animals before.

在那些用过去完成时的句子中没有明确的时间状语,但通过上下文可以看出动作发生的先后。

Exercises D (用正确的时态填空)

1  The moment he had said this, he ______ (regret) it.

the moment = as soon as    一……就……,后面直接加从句

2  It ______ (begin) to rain before she took a taxi.

before引导的从句用一般过去时, 主句用过去完成时

【Special Difficulties】 

Ask与Ask For:

ask  v. 问,询问;请求,要求,邀请

  ask a question/ask sb.     问(一个问题)/问某人

I asked (Mary) a question.

  They asked Tony to sing a song.

  They asked her to spend the weekend with them.

ask for     要,要求(某样东西)

  ask for the answer 

I asked for a cup of coffee, but they gave me a cup of tea.

  You are always asking for help.

Except, Except for与Apart from

三者都表示“除……以外”,有时可以互换,但except不用于句首,except for和apart from则可以。

  Everyone has helped in some way apart from/except for/except you.

  Apart from/Except for you, everyone has helped in some way.

apart from习惯上喜欢放句首, apart from=except/besides

如果认为整体之中做这件事情的人除了整体之外,还有这个人也做了(包括),是加号=besides;如果认为整体之中做这件事情的人除了整体之外,这个人没有做(排除),是减号=except;如果放在句首,统一用apart from代替except/besides

All the passengers are millionaire except us.   (减号)

I invited everyone except George. / Except for George I invited everyone.

Except for/apart from this, everything is in order.

except for含有对整体中的某一个方面不满意,except for 可以不放在句首, 强调整体当中某一方面除外, 剩下的整体都不错

The article is very good except for his handwriing.

Except for his height, he is very excellent.

Which of,Either of,Neigher of与Both of

上面这些短语都可用于指两个人或两件事

either of    两者当中的任何一个

neither of   两者都不

which of    那一个

both of    两者都

① 当询问在两个或更多的人或事物中偏爱哪一个或选择哪一个时,可用which

I like both of these bags. Which of the two do you prefer?

② either与neither都是对两个人或物而言(后接单数名词)。either指one or the other(不是这个就是那个),either和neither后跟of时则指两个事物中的每一个

either of sb.     ……当中的任何一个

neither of sb.    ……当中的任何一个都不(neither of [](注意英音与美音的读音)两者之间都不, 一旦出现, 这句话里面不会再出现not)

  I don't like the book. My sister doesn't like it either.

Neither of us likes it.   (注意要用单数)

Which bag shall I use?

  Either of them. It doesn’t matter which.      哪个都行。用哪个都没关系。

  Neither of them. Use a suitcase.      哪个都不行。用个手提箱吧。

③ both只指两个人或物。当它用在名词前时,of 可有可无;当用在代词前面时,其后必须加of

Both books/Both of the books are interesting.

Both of us/them left early.

④none of  三者或三者以上之间都不

【Text】

The secretary told me that Mr. Harmsworth would see me. I felt very nervous when I went into his office. He did not look up from his desk when I entered. After I had sat down, he said that business was very bad. He told me that the firm could not afford to pay such large salaries. Twenty people had already left. I knew that my turn had come.

'Mr.Harmsworth,' I said in a weak voice.

'Don't interrupt,' he said.

Then he smiled and told me I would receive an extra thousand pounds a year!

参考译文

秘书告诉我说哈姆斯沃斯先生要见我. 我走进他的办公室, 感到非常紧张. 我进去的时候, 他连头也没抬. 待我坐下后, 他说生意非常不景气. 他还告诉我, 公司支付不起这么庞大的工资开支, 有20个人已经离去. 我知道这次该轮到我了. 

“哈姆斯沃斯先生, “我无力地说. 

“不要打断我的话, “他说. 

然后他微笑了一下告诉我说, 我每年将得到1,000 英镑的额外收入. 

【课文讲解】

1、The secretary told me that Mr. Harmsworth would see me.

would在这里不是表示单纯的过去将来时,而是表示“想……”、“要……”的意思:

John wouldn’t lend me his bicycle.

2、He did not look up from his desk when I entered.

look up表示原先在埋头干什么,之后抬头看

  He looked up (from his book) when he heard a noise.

look down 往地上看(look up的反义词)

look down upon/on sb.     瞧不起某人

I look down upon my sister.

3、After I had sat down, he said that business was very bad.

Business is very good!     生意好!

4、He told me that the firm could not afford to pay such large salaries.

collect salary     领薪水

pay salary     支付薪水

large一般指东西的数量大

so的后面加形容词或副词;such的后面加名词, 容许在该名词前面加修饰词

5、I knew that my turn had come.

My turn has come.

It is my turn.    轮到我了(口语常用形式)

in a … voice    用……的声音

in a loud(大声)/low (低声)/weak(强调心里不踏实)/strong(理直气壮) voice

7、Then he smiled and told me I would receive an extra thousand pounds a year!

以下几个词都可表示 “再, 又” 的意思, 注意用法 : 

① an extra thousand(作名词看)

数量+extra+名词     再有多少  

On Sundays, I usually get some extra sleep.

Last month, he was paid an extra hundred pounds.

② two others = two other +名词

③ two more 

Give me two extra/other/more books.  再给我两本书。

once more: 再一次

④ another three days    另外三天(只有another 的数词在后面)

【Key structures】 

间接引语

把某人所说的话告诉另外一个人时,应该使用间接引语。间接陈述句的时态往往受引述动词的影响。引述陈述句时最常用的动词是say和tell,tell后面必须跟表示人称的间接宾语(tell sb.),而say后面则可跟或不跟to+讲话对象。

1、主从一致 : 主句和从句的时态一致

① 主句的动词为一般现在时, 从句为任意时态

② 主句的动词为一般过去时, 从句为相对应的过去时态(时态倒移)

一般现在时——> 一般过去时现在进行时——> 过去进行时

现在完成时——> 过去完成时将来完成时——> 过去将来完成时

一般过去时——> 过去完成时

2、人称变化:主要是第一和第二人称变化

3、只要属于宾语从句, 引导词that可以省略
