n  课文详注 Further notes on the text
n  1.Do the English speak English? (标题)英国人讲的是英语吗?
n  English在这里均为名词,但意义不同。第1个指“英国人”,为总称,后面的动词必须用复数;第2个指“英语”。指语言时前面不加冠词,指人则要加the:
n  The English often talk about the weather.
n  英国人经常谈论天气。
n  Do you speak English?
n  你会讲英语吗?
n  English还可以作形容词,表示“英格兰的”、“英国的”、“英国人的”等:
n  He was English.
n  他是个英国人。
n  与English相似的单词有French,Chinese,Japanese等:
n  I said good morning to him in French.
n  我用法语向他问早上好。
n
n  2.I arrived in London at last. 我终于到了伦敦。
n  (1)这里London前面不加冠词,介词in暗指London是个大地方。
n  (2)at last为固定短语,表示“终于”,一般暗指经过一番等待、麻烦(苦恼)或努力之后:
n  It was my turn at last.
n  终于轮到我了。
n  I repeated my question several times and at last he understood.
n  我把问话重复了很多遍。他终于听懂了。
n
n  3.I did not know the way to my hotel…我不知道去饭店的路该怎么走……
n  my hotel不是指属于我的饭店(或旅馆),而是指我已订了房间或者要去住的饭店。
n
n  4.I not only spoke English very carefully, but very clearly as well.
n  我的英语讲得不但非常认真,而且咬字也非常清楚。
n  not only…but…as well这组连接词与 not only…but also是同样的意思,都表示“不但……而且……”,not only与 but后面的成分必须对等。课文中的这句话可以改为:
n  I spoke English not only very carefully, but very clearly as well.(意义不变)
n  Mary not only found her aunt, but stayed with her for two weeks as well.
n  玛丽不仅找到了她姑妈,而且还在她那里住了两星期。
n  (连接整个谓语)
n  as well这个短语本身的含义是“也”、“又”、“还”:
n  If you go home tomorrow, I'll go as well.
n  如果你明天回家,我也回。
n  He lent me his pen, and his dictionary as well.
n  他把钢笔借给了我,还有字典。
n
n  5.… he spoke neither slowly nor clearly.……他讲得既不慢也不清楚。
n  否定连词 neither…nor…(既不……也不……)连接的成分必须对等:
n  Neither the boss nor his secretary is flying to New York.
n  老板和他的秘书都没有飞往纽约。(连接两个主语)
n  I met neither Jane nor her husband.
n  简和她的丈夫我都没见到。(连接两个宾语)
n
n  6.My teacher never spoke English like that! 我的老师从来不那样讲英语!
n  like 在这里是介词,表示“像”、“像……一样”:
n  There's no one like you.
n  没有人像你一样。
n  He speaks like a foreigner.
n  他说话像外国人。
n
n  语法 Grammar in use
n  并列句的语序(Word order in compound statements)
n  在第1课的语法中,我们学习了简单陈述句的语序,它一般为:主语+动词+宾语(可有可无)+状语(可有可无,分为方式、地点和时间状语,位置相对比较 灵活)。通过并列连词可以把几个简单句连接起来构成一个并列句。在并列句中,各分句要根据上下文的要求按逻辑次序排列,但各分句都同等重要并独立存在。我 们常常把并列句中的各分句看成是并列主句。常用的并列连词有:and, and then, but, so, yet,or, both…and,either…or, neither…nor, not only…but also/but…as well等。这些并列连词可以用来表示另加(and)、对比(but,yet)、选择(or)、连续(and then)以及结局或结果(so)。并列句基本上保留了简单句的词序:
n  主语 动词 状语 连词 主语 动词 宾语
n  You can wait here and I will get the car.
n  你可以在这等我,我去找车。
n  and前面一般不加逗号,但其他连词前则一般要加逗号:
n  Jim speaks Spanish, but his wife speaks French.吉姆讲西班牙语,而他妻子却讲法语。
n  I've got a cold, so I'm going to bed.
n  我得了感冒,所以我要去睡觉。
n  当并列连词连接的成分相同时,通常不再重复:
n  He either speaks French or understands it.
n  他或是会讲法语,或是懂法语。(主语相同,省略)
n  Either you or I can eat the apple.
n  这个苹果或者是你吃,或者是我吃。(谓语相同,省略)
n  Both Mary and Jane understands English.
n  玛丽和简都懂英语。
n  当 both…and, either…or和neither…nor连接主语时,谓语动词与后一个主语保持一致:
n  Neither Liz nor I teach mathematics.
n  莉兹和我都不教数学。(第2个主语为I,所以teach后不加-es)
n
