Unit 1 The summer holidays
Lesson 1
1.I must be off/leaving.我该走了。
此句常在分手时说,相当于 I must go/leave now。有时还可以在句前加上 I m afraid...,显得语气委婉、有礼貌。例如:
It s too late.I m afraid I must be off.
2.Nice to meet/meeting you.
nice to meet you相当于 I m glad to meet you, 常用作刚见面时的寒暄语;而Nice meeting you.相当于 It s nice meeting you. 常用作分手时道别语,后面往往接着说 Byeˉbye/ Goodˉbye。
3.I ll introduce you.我来给你做个介绍。
此句常在介绍朋友时使用。介绍别人的表达方式还有:
This is Mr/Mrs/Miss....
May I introduce you to...?
I d like you to meet....
自我介绍的方法有:May I introduce myself?I m...
Hello.My name is/I m...
4.What was the nicest part of your holiday in your opinion?在你看来,你的假期哪段时间过得最好?
in one s opinion意为“依……看,在……看来”,用来表示个人的看法和意见,并使自己的看法和意见听起来不那么武断。例如:
1) In my opinion,autumn is the best season in Beijing.
在我看来,秋天是北京最好的季节。
2)In Charlie s opinion,Americans should eat less meat.
查理认为,美国人应该少吃点肉。
3)In the opinion of most people,there will be a good harvest this autumn.大多数人认为,今年秋天应该有个好收成。
5.turn to
turn to在本课意为“转向……,求助于……”,它还有“翻到(书中)……页”的意思。例如:
I turned to the policeman for help.
Please turn to page 85.
6. So was my friend Bob.我的朋友鲍勃也是(去年在中心学校学习)。
这是一句接着上文所说的话。“so+be/have/情态动词/
助动词+主语”结构中的so代替本句和上句中某个相同的成分,意为“……也这样”。如果上句中有be/have/情态动词,so后面仍用它们;如果上句用的是实义动词,so后面动词根据上句时态用do的适当形式。注意此句用倒装语序。例如:
I have had supper.So has he.(= He has had supper,too.)我吃过晚饭了,他也是。
You can speak Japanese.So can I.(= I can also speak it.)你会说日语,我也一样会说.
Lessons2 & 3
1.find out
find out意思为“查明,弄清”,要注意和find的区别。
find意为“发现,找到”,有偶然发现之意。而 find out 有经过调查、询问、了解才发现的意思。例如:
I found my boots under the table.
I m trying to find out her telephone number.
2.employ v.
及物动词,意思为“雇佣,聘请”。注意其相关词形。employer意为“雇主”,employee意为“雇员”。例如:
The company employed two new workers.
The employer is very kind to his employees.
3.go on doing something
go on doing sth.意思为“继续(干某事),持续不断地(干某事)”,表示一直在做某事,没有做其他事。例如:
Water goes on running along the channels to the river.
They went on talking on the way home.
【注意】它和 go on to do sth.和 go on with sth.的区别。
go on to do sth.表示“(干完某事后)继续干另外一件事”,强调接着干另外一件事;go on doing sth.强调持续干同样一件事; go on with sth.通常情况下,强调在停顿之后继续原来的活动,with后通常接名词。例如:
He went on doing his homework in his room after supper.晚饭后他一直在自己的房间里做家庭作业。
After finishing his homework,he went on to read the text.写完家庭作业后,他又继续读课文。
You must go on with your work.你必须继续你的工作。
4. Although the farm is large,my dad has only two men working for him.尽管农场很大,我父亲只雇佣了两个人干活。
句型have sb.doing sth.意为:让某人做某事;或让某种情况发生。与 have sb.do sth.相近,但前一种结构强调正在进行的动作;后一种结构表示一般意义的动作。例如:
1)Don t forget to have him come.别忘了让他来。
2)We d be pleased to have you work with us.我们很高
兴你能和我们一起工作。
3)I ll have you all speaking English well within a year.
我要让你们在一年内都能讲一口流利的英语。
5.as a result
result意思为“结果”。例如:
I didn t know the results of the final examinations.
as a result(=so)意为“因此”。常在上文表示原因的情况下,用来引导结果。例如:
I got up late.As a result,I was late for class.
(=I got up late, so I was late for class.)
2 as a result of...表示“由于……的结果”,常用在上文表示结果的情况下,引导原因。例如:
As a result of his hard work,he got a pay rise.(= He worked hard.So /As a result,he got a pay rise.)
6.time area
time area(= time zone)意为“时区”,指的是某一标准时适用的地区范围。全球共分为24个时区,即中区、东1ˉ11区、西1ˉ11区和12区。格林尼治子午线为中区标准线,相邻两时区的区时相差一个小时。在任意的两个时区之间,相差几个时区,它们就相差几个小时。其中较东的时区,区时较早。
美国所处的位置在西四区和西八区之间,恰好是五个不同的时区;中国处于东九区到东五区,也是五个不同的时区。但是实际上,为了使用方便,我国大部分地区采用北京所在的东八区的区时,这就是“北京时间”(Beijing time)。
7.Please give my regards/love to your parents.请代我向你父母问好。
这个句子常用于向别人转达问候之意。例如:
Please give my best wishes to your family.
请代我向你全家问好。
Bob sends his best love to your sister.
鲍勃向你的妹妹问好。
