Lesson19
【课文】
First listen and then answer the question.
听录音，然后回答以下问题。
When will the writer see the play?
"The play may begin at any moment," I said.
"It may have begun already," Susan answered.
I hurried to the ticket office. "May I have two tickets please?" I asked.
"I"m sorry, we"ve sold out," the girl said.
"What a pity!" Susan exclaimed.
Just then, a man hurried to the ticket office.
"Can I return these two tickets?" he asked.
"Certainly," the girl said.
I went back to the ticket office at once.
"Could I have those two tickets please?" I asked.
"Certainly," the girl said, "but they"re for next Wednesday"s performance. Do you still want them?"
"I might as well have them," I said sadly.
【课文翻译】
“剧马上就要开演了，”我说。
“也许已经开演了呢，”苏珊回答说。
我匆匆赶到售票处，问：“我可以买两张票吗?”
“对不起，票已售完。”那位姑娘说。
“真可惜!”苏珊大声说。
正在这时，一个男子匆匆奔向售票处。
“我可以退掉这两张票吗?”他问。
“当然可以，”那姑娘说。
我马上又回到售票处。
“我可以买那两张票吗?”我问。
“当然可以，不过这两张票是下星期三的，您是否还要呢?”
“我还是买下的好，”我垂头丧气地说。
【生词和短语】
hurry v. 匆忙
ticket office 售票处
pity n. 令人遗憾的事
exclaim v. 大声说
return v. 退回
sadly adv. 悲哀地，丧气地
【知识点讲解】
1 The play may begin at any moment.
剧马上就要开演了。
在这句话中，说话人指的并不是一种确信不移的事实，而是可能发生的事情，因此用may+动词的结构。
It may have begun already.
可能已经开始了。
这句话也是表示可能发生的事情，因为表示可能已经发生的事情，所以用may+动词完成时的结构。
2 hurry to+spl.
匆忙赶往某地
例句：We hurried to the airport.
我们匆忙赶往机场。
3 What a pity!
真遗憾!
这是What+a/an/the+名词 的感叹句形式。以what开头的感叹句还有以下几种。
①What+名词
例句：What fun!
真开心!
②What+(a/an)+形容词+名词
例句：What a said story!
真是个凄凉的故事啊!
③What+ a/an+形容词+名词(+主语)+谓语
例句：What a delicious dinner you made!
你做了真丰盛的晚餐啊!
④What+名词+主语+谓语
例句：What happy girls they are.
那些女生好幸福啊!
4 exclaim [动词] 惊叫，呼喊
相当于scream，cry out，指因疼痛、惊奇、愤怒等突然喊叫。
例句：She screamed when seeing the devastating car accident.
当她目击这场惨烈的车祸时忍不住惊叫起来。
词语扩展：exclamation n. 呼喊，惊叫，叹词，感叹语
exclamation mark 感叹号，叹号
5 Could I ...please?
在这句里，could代替了can，这是比较委婉地提出请求的用法。在时间上和can没有区别。
6 might as well...
还是……好，不妨
与may as well意思相同，只不过前者更委婉。
Lesson20
【课文】
First listen and then answer the question.
听录音，然后回答以下问题。
Why is fishing the writer"s favourite sport?
Fishing is my favourite sport. I often fish for hours without catching anything. But this does not worry me. Some fishermen are unlucky. Instead of catching fish, they catch old boots and rubbish. I am even less lucky. I never catch anything--not even old boots. After having spent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag. "You must give up fishing!" my friends say. "It"s a waste of time." But they don"t realize one important thing. I"m not really interested in fishing. I am only interested in sitting in a boat and doing nothing at all!
【课文翻译】
钓鱼是我最喜欢的一项运动。我经常一钓数小时却一无所获，但我从不为此烦恼。有些垂钓者就是不走运，他们往往鱼钓不到，却钓上来些旧靴子和垃圾。我的运气 甚至还不及他们。我什么东西也未钓到过——就连旧靴子也没有。我总是在河上呆上整整一上午，然后空着袋子回家。“你可别再钓鱼了!”我的朋友们说“这是浪费时间。”然而他们没有认识到重要的一点，我并不是真的对钓鱼有兴趣，我感兴趣的只是独坐孤舟，无所事事!
【生词和短语】
catch (caught，caught) v. 抓到
fisherman n. 钓鱼人，渔民
boot n. 靴子
waste n. 浪费
realize v. 意识到
【知识点讲解】
1 Fishing is my favourite sport.
钓鱼是我最喜欢的一项运动。
在这句话中，动名词fishing作主语。
I often fish for hours without catching anything.
我经常一钓数小时却一无所获。
在这句话中，动名词catching作介词without的宾语。
2 worry [动词](使)担忧，(使)发愁
worry about /over sth
sth worry sb.
例句：She is always worrying about her figure.
她总在为自己的身材担忧。
文中But this does not worry me.就是应用了第二种句型。
worry还可作动词表示骚扰，烦扰。
worry sb. with sth.
例句：It"s impolite to worry neighbours with noise at night.
在晚上制造噪音打扰邻居是不礼貌的。
3 instead of 代替，作为……的替换
其后可接连接宾语(名词，动名词，介词，副词)
例句：Instead of singing in the KTV, we went to the riverside.
我们没有去KTV唱歌，而是去了河边。
4 After having spent whole mornings on the river, I always go home with an empty bag.
我总是在河边呆上整整一个上午，然后空着袋子回家。
在这个句子里，作为介词after的宾语，动词spend所表示的动作发生在谓语动词go之前，所以动名词要用完成形式，即having spent。
在这里补充一下动名词的相关知识。
动名词是由“动词原形+ing"构成，比如我们常见的eating，enjoying等。动名词有两种形式，分别是一般式，完成式。其中，一般式表示动名词的动作与谓语动词的动作同时发生或在它后面发生，而完成式则表示动名词的动作发生在谓语动词的动作之前。大家可以看看以下两个句子，然后进行对比。
She is confident of being awarded this scholarship.
她对此次奖学金志在必得。
He was very proud of having been selected as a volunteer for the World Expo.
他很自豪自己入选世博志愿者。
5 realize [动词]理解，领会认识到
例句：We didn"t realizing his appearing at first.
起初我们没有注意到他的到来。
realize还可表示实现，将……变为现实
例句：To help realize the dreams of students is one of teachers’ tasks.
帮助学生实现梦想也是教师的职责之一。
Lesson21
【课文】
First listen and then answer the question.
听录音，然后回答以下问题。
Why do people think the writer is mad?
Aeroplanes are slowly driving me mad. I live near an airport and passing planes can be heard night and day. The airport was built years ago, but for some reason it could not be used then. Last year, however, it came into use. Over a hundred people must have been driven away from their homes by the noise. I am one of the few people left. Sometimes I think this house will be knocked down by a passing plane. I have been offered a large sum of money to go away, but I am determined to stay here. Everybody says I must be mad and they are probably right.
【课文翻译】
飞机正在逐渐把我逼疯。我住在一个机场附近，过往飞机日夜不绝于耳。机场是许多年前建的，但由于某种原因当时未能启用。然而去年机场开始使用了。有100 多人肯定是被噪音逼得已经弃家远去，我是少数留下来的人中的一个。有时我觉得这房子就要被一架飞过的飞机撞倒。他们曾向我提供一大笔钱让我搬走，但我决定留在这儿。大家都说我肯定是疯了，也许他们说的是对的。
【生词和短语】
mad adj. 发疯
reason n. 原因
sum n. 量
determined adj. 坚定的，下决心的
【知识点讲解】
1 Aeroplanes are slowly driving me mad.
飞机正在逐渐把我逼疯。
这个句子里drive表示迫使(某人生气、发疯或做出极端的事情。)
drive sb. mad /crazy
而drive away是赶走，逼走的意思。
例句：They drove away the little dog.
他们赶走了小狗。
2 passing planes can be heard night and day.
过往飞机日夜不绝于耳。
在这个句子里，passing是现在分词，做定语修饰名词planes。
例句：The falling leaves indicate the coming of autumn.
飘落的树叶昭示着秋天的到来。
3 come into use 投入使用，开始被使用
在使用时直接用主动语态，sth come into use。
例句：This bridge will come use next year.
这座大桥将于明年投入使用。
4 sum [名词]金额，量
通常组成词组a sum of 与money搭配，表示一笔钱。
sum也可作动词，有词组sum up表示总结，囊括，也可表示估量，判断。
例句：He asked for a large sum of money to drive her to the hospital.
他要她出一大笔钱才肯送她去医院。
5 Over a hundred people must have been driven away from their homes by the noise.
有100 多人肯定是被噪音逼得已经弃家远去。
这个句子里，情态动词must+完成时态，是对过去事情的肯定，猜测某事一定已经发生。这种情态动词表猜测的用法在19课也有提到，大家可以结合起来看。
6 but for some reason it could not be used then.
但由于某种原因当时未能启用。
大家可能注意到这篇文章里大量使用了被动语态。被动语态的基本形式是“be+过去分词+(by+动作执行者)。
例句：Mary was elected as the new president of the company.
玛丽被选为公司的新任董事长。
