课文详注 Further notes on the text
1.… the dead are said to return to their homes and they are welcomed by the living. ……据说死去的人要回到他们的家里来,活着的人则对他们表示欢迎。
(1)the dead与the living 均为定冠词+ 形容词结构,表示某类人。(cf.第54课语法)
(2)被动语态 the dead are said 在这里的作用是缓和说话语气,因为对事情是否属实的把握不太大。(cf.第58课语法)
2.… food is laid out for them. ……为他们摆放好了食品。
lay out 为短语动词,其含义之一为"摆出"、"摊开":
Just as he laid out his book, the telephone rang. 他刚把书摊开电话就响了。
Don't lay out your clothes on the bed. Put them away. 别把你的衣服都摊在床上。把它们收起来。
3.specially-made lanterns,特制的灯笼。
specially-made 是个复合形容词,由副词+过去分词构成。在第60课的词汇学习中,我们学习了名词+ 名词构成的复合名词。过去分词经常与其他词构成复合形容词:
well-intentioned 善意的
well-known 著名的
well-preserved 保存/保养得好的
widespread 广泛流传的
candle-lit 点着蜡烛的
a horse-drawn cart 一辆二轮马车
a tree-lined street 林阴街道
4.all night long,整夜。
long 在这里是副词,表示"整个"、"在整段期间中",通常与 all 连用:
It snowed all day long. 一整天都在下雪。
She stayed with her grandfather all summer long. 她整个夏天都和她爷爷呆在一起。
5.their return journey to the other world,返回另一个世界。
world 可以与一些限定词连用以表示"今世/现世"、"来世"、"黄泉"等:
the next world / the world to come 来世
She believes that she will meet her dead parents in the other world. 她相信她会与她死去的父母在阴间重逢。
6.a moving spectacle,一个感人的场面。
moving 为形容词,表示"动人的"、"感人的":
I've just read a moving story / letter.
我刚读了一个感人的故事/一封感人的信。
