Notes on the text 课文注释

MARTIN: Where are you going to spend your holidays this year, Gary?

马丁:加里,今年你们打算去哪里度假?

GARY: We may go abroad. I'm not sure. My wife wants to go to Egypt. I'd like to go there, too. We can't make up our minds.

加里:我们可能到国外去,但我不敢肯定。我妻子想到埃及去,我也想去那儿。我们还拿不定主意。

MARTIN: Will you travel by sea or by air?

马丁:你们乘船去,还是乘飞机去?

GARY: We may travel by sea.

加里:我们可能乘船去。

MARTIN: It's cheaper, isn't it?

马丁:这更便宜些,是吗?

GARY: It may be cheaper, but it takes a long time.

加里:可能是便宜些,但花的时间长。

MARTIN: I'm sure you'll enjoyourselves.

马丁:我肯定你们一定会玩得很痛快。

GARY: Don't be so sure. We might not go anywhere. My wife always worries too much. Who's going to look after the dog? Who's going to look after the house? Who's going to look after the garden? We have this problem every year. In the end, we stay at home and look after everything!

加里:别那么肯定。我们可能哪里也去不成。我妻子总是担心那的。谁来照看狗啦,谁来看管房子啦,谁来照料花园啦,我们每年都碰到这类问题。末了,我们呆在家里来照看一切。

1.   Where are you going to spend your holidays this year, Gary? 加里,今年你们打算去哪里度假?

§be going to do sth. 将要去做某事

  Eg. I am going to visit my grandparents this weekend. 我这个周末将要去拜访我的爷爷奶奶。

3.   We can’t make up our minds. 我们还拿不定主意。

Eg. Momo made up her minds not to go to KFC. 容嬷嬷下定决心,再也不吃肯德基了。

4.   Will you travel by sea or by air? 你们乘船去,还是乘飞机去?(这是一个选择疑问句,前半句读升调,后半句读降调。)

§by sea表示“乘船”=by ship    by air表示“乘飞机”=by plane  (by+交通工具,表示“乘……”)

  By+交通工具,“乘/搭……”:by bus搭公车/taxi乘出租车/bike骑自行车/car乘小汽车/plane乘飞机/ship乘船

注意:by sea=by ship; by air=by plane

5.   It’s cheaper, isn’t it? 这更便宜些,是吗?(反义疑问句,后面读升调,期待得到肯定答复)

§it 指代 traveling by sea(完整句:Traveling by sea is cheaper.

6.   take a long time 花很长时间

§sb. take a long time to do sth. 某人花了很长一段时间去做某事。

  Eg. I take a long time to walk to school because it is a long way. 我用了很长时间走到学校,因为路很远。

§(sb.) spend some money/time on sth.某人在某事上花费了多少钱/时间。

§(sb.) spend some money/time (in) doing sth.某人花费了多少钱/时间做某事。

Eg. I spent fifty yuan on the coat.=I spent fifty yuan (in) buying the coat. 我花50元买了这件大衣。

(2) take常用于“占用、花费”时间,其主语通常为形式主语“it”或物sth.

  Eg. The work will take me two days.=It will take me two days to finish the work. 做这项工作将花费我2天时间。

 Look at注视   look after照顾   look for寻找   look into调查   look around环顾   look forward to doing sth.渴望做某事

 Eg. I look forward to being alone in the house. 我盼望着能自己一人待在这所房子里。

9.   in the end最后

词义辨析:at lastfinallyin the end

 At last:多指经主观努力,克服各种困难后才终于达到目的。带感情色彩(如不耐烦、放心、如愿等)

   Eg. He succeeded at last. 他终于成功了。(带有感情色彩欣慰或如愿等)

 Finally:常与at last换用,都可用于对往事的描述,但finally不带感情色彩,指一系列事情的最后结局。

   Eg. Finally [in the end] he succeeded. 最后他成功了。(不带感情色彩平铺直叙)

 In the end:at last同义,可用来谈论将来的事,而其他两者一般不这样用。

   Eg. In the end things will mend. 船到桥头自然直。(谚语)

 

Grammar in use语法

情态助动词may表示可能性 

Maymight都表示“可能”、“也许”。通常既可以用may,也可以用might,不过might所表示的可能性要比may小,且当情况是虚拟的时候只能用might而不能用may.

1)   may表示现在或将来的可能性:may+v.动词原形

The bread may be fresh. 面包可能是新鲜的。

He may be reading. 他可能正在看书。(对现在情况的一种推测)

I may go abroad. 我可能出国。

They may offer me a job. 他们也许会给我提供一份工作。

2)   may也可以表示过去的可能性,过去式为:may have (done)

He was late. He may have been busy. 他迟到了。他可能一直很忙。(对过去情况的推测)

I went out last night, and she may have been reading. 我昨晚出去了,她可能一直在看书。

It may have been right. 也可能是对的。

They may have been in the garden. 他们那时可能一直在花园里。

  

情态动词

用法

例句

may/might

表示允许、许可。否定回答一般用must not/mustn’t,表示“禁止、阻止”之意,但也可以用had better not (最好别)may not(不可以),语气较为委婉。

1.May I come in and wait?我能进来等吗?

2.——May I smoke here?我能在这抽烟吗?

——No, you mustn’t不,你不可以。

(No, you’d better not.你最好不要)

在表示请求、允许时,mightmay语气更委婉些。用May I征询对方许可在文体上比较正式,在口气上比较客气,在日常用语中,用Can I征询对方意见更为常见。

1.Might I borrow your pen?

2.I wonder if I might speak to your son.

表示可能性的推测,通常用在肯定句和否定句中,含有“或许”“大概”“可能”之意;用might代替may时,则语气显得更加不肯定。

1.It may rain this afternoon.

2.She might come to join us this afternoon.

3.I suppose he might have missed the train.

may用于祈使句表示祝愿

May you succeed.祝你马到成功。

Long may he live! 愿他能持续住下去。

May she rest in peace.愿她安息。
