## 四 Notes on the text & 课文注释
1What's Ron Marston like, Pauline? 波琳,朗·马斯顿是怎样一个人?
What is sb. like? 这一句式可用来询问某人的外貌或品行。就本课的具体情况而言,波琳的回答更多地是指马斯顿的品行如何。
2He telephoned me four times yesterday…他昨天给我打了4次电话……
four times, 4次。 time在英语中作不可数名词时表示“时间”;作可数名词时表示“次数”。请注意英语中次数的表示法:
once 1次 twice 两次 three times 3次
3次或 3次以上通常都用基数词 times表示: five times 5次 thirty times 30次
3the day before yesterday, 前天。
4answer the telephone, 接电话。
口语中也常用 answer the phone。还有类似的短语如:answer the door/doorbell 应声开门 | answer a letter回信
5She can't speak to you now! 她现在不能同你讲话!
speak to sb. 意为“与某人说话”。例如打电话时可以说:
May I speak to Pauline, please? 请让波琳接电话好吗?
I' d like to speak to Pauline, please. 我想请波琳听电话。
6This is Pauline's mother. 我是波琳的母亲。
This is…是英美人打电话时表示“我是……”的句式,而不说 I'm…。如:
This is Mary speaking. 我是玛丽。
This is Edward calling from London. 我是爱德华,现正在伦敦给你打电话。
五 Grammar in use & 语法
一般过去时[ 2 ]
1) be动词以外的动词在一般过去时中一般有两种形式。规则动词一般是在动词后面加-ed,如answered;以-e结尾的规则动词加-d,如 telephoned, arrived。另一部分不规则动词,如:say----said, do----did。
2) 用一般过去时的句子中常常有表示过去某一时刻的时间状语,如文章中的 yesterday(昨天),the day before yesterday(前天),yesterday morning(昨天上午),yesterday afternoon(昨天下午),yesterday evening(昨天晚上),last night(昨夜)。
