课文重难点 Further notes on the text
1.…we stopped at a square to have a rest.……我们在一个广场上停下来休息。
stop 后面跟不定式时,表示停下其他活动去做不定式表示的动作:
On the way to the station, I stopped to buy a paper.在去车站的路上,我停下来买了张报纸。
stop后面如果跟动名词形式,则表示停止该动作:
I've stopped buying newspapers我已不再买报纸了。
How can we stop him complaining?我们如何才能让他不抱怨呢?
2.after a time, 过了一会儿,不久以后。
time在这里表示"(一段)时间":
He lived abroad for a long time.他在国外生活了很长时间。
I saw him a short time ago.我刚才还看见他了。
After a time, the dog stopped following me.
过了一会儿,那条狗便不再跟着我了。
3.…we had our first glimpse of the snake. ……我们才第一次看到了那条蛇。
glimpse表示"一瞥"、"一看",是可数名词,常用于下列短语中:
have/ get a glimpse of, catch a glimpse of, take a glimpse at:
He took a glimpse at the'No Parking'signs outside Jasper's gate and parked his car there.他瞥了一眼贾斯珀家大门外边的那些"禁止停车"的牌子,然后把车停在了那里。(有意识的、短暂的动作)
This afternoon I caught/got/had a glimpse of Debbie and Dan walking together in the park.今天下午我瞥见黛比和丹一起在公园里散步。(无意的、短暂的动作)
4.It obviously could not tell the difference between Indian music and jazz! 显然,它分辨不出印度音乐和爵士乐!
(1)tell表示"辨别"、"分辨"、"识别"时常与 can,could,be able to连用。表达这些意义时,tell可以单独使用,也可以与from构成词组:
(2)表示两者之间的"差别"、"差异"时常用 difference between:
What's the difference between them?他/它们之间有何区别?
There's a lot of difference between Englishmen and Frenchmen.英国人和法国人之间有许多差别。
在有些情况下也可以不跟 between:
It makes no difference whether you believe me or not.你信不信我区别不大/都无所谓。
语法 Grammar in use
have +名词代替普通动词
在第18课的语法中,我们学习了完全动词have的一些用法,知道它既可以表示"具有"、"拥有",又可以表示 eat, drink, enjoy, take等含义:
I have(got) a new car.我有辆新汽车。
Have a good time!祝你(们)玩得开心!
have的另一种用法是 have+名词代替普通动词表示"完成该动作":
类似的动词还有dance, fight, look, rest, ride, talk, sleep, swim, wash等。一般完全动词的用法也适用于have:
Jim and I have just had a long talk.我和吉姆刚进行过一次长谈。
I must have a wash before lunch.午饭前我得洗一洗。(情态动词+have)
I had two dances with Lucy.我和露西跳了两次舞。(可用复数形式)
