Lesson 25 Do the English speak English? 英國人講的是英語嗎?
First listen and then answer the question.聽錄音, 然后回答以下問題.
Why does the writer not understand the porter?
I arrived in London at last. The railway station was big, black and dark. I did not know the way to my hotel, so I asked a porter. I not only spoke English very carefully, but very clearly as well. The porter, however, could not understand me. I repeated my question several times and at last he understood. he answered me, but he spoke neither slowly nor clearly. 'I am a foreigner,' I said. Then he spoke slowly, but I could not understand him. My teacher never spoke English like that! The porter and I looked at each other and smiled. Then he said something and I understood it. 'You'll soon learn English!' he said. I wonder. In England, each person speaks a different language. The English understand each other, but I don't understand them! Do they speak English?
參考譯文
我終于到了倫敦. 火車站很大, 又黑又暗. 我不知道去飯店的路該怎么走, 于是向一個搬運(yùn)工打聽. 我的英語講得不但非常認(rèn)真, 而且咬字也非常清楚. 然而搬運(yùn)工卻不明白我的話. 我把問話重復(fù)了很多遍. 他終于聽懂了. 他回答了, 但他講得既不慢也不清楚. “我是個外國人, “我說. 于是他說得慢了, 可我還是聽不懂. 我的老師從來不那樣講英語!我和搬運(yùn)工相視一笑. 接著, 他說了點(diǎn)什么, 這回我聽懂了. “您會很快學(xué)會英語的!” 他說. 我感到奇怪. 在英國, 人們各自說著一種不同的語言. 英國人之間相互聽得懂, 可我卻不懂他們的話!他們說的是英語嗎?
【課文講解】
arrive in : 到達(dá), reach,get
When will you arrive?
arrive vi.不及物動詞
reach vt.后面一定要加賓語
arrive at : 小地點(diǎn), arrive in; 大地點(diǎn)
When will you reach(arrive in) BeiJing?
get to+賓語 : 到達(dá)
When will you get to BeiJing?
How can I get there?
get home:到家, get there : 到那
home/there都是副詞, 副詞跟動詞連用的時候不需要加介詞, “arrive” 也一樣, 但一般不用“reach home/there” , 如一定要這樣寫則把 “home” 看作名詞, “there” 當(dāng)代詞看, 不作副詞看
I arrived at last.我終于到了
并列的表達(dá)方式中前面都是用逗號隔開, 最后兩個用and連接
balck : 顏色(建筑物).The room is black.
dark : without light.沒有光線 : It is dark.
the way to : 通往...路
Can you tell me the way to...
I don't know the way to...Can you tell me how to get there?
I don't know the way to the school and where is it?
I know the way.
know sth. well:很熟悉
I know the boy well.
so : 連詞, 把并列句連到一起
如果有兩個謂語動詞, 加連詞, 成為并列
not only...but...as well : 不但...而且...
并列連詞, 什么東西并列連接什么
I can speak Chinese. I can speak English.
I can speak not only Chinese but English as well.
I not only sing but dance as well.
Not only you but also I will go there.主語并列(一般不這么用)
not only,喜歡放在動詞的前面
一般遇到實(shí)義動詞和非實(shí)義動詞的時候, 習(xí)慣放在兩者之間
I can not only speak Chinese but English as well.(更習(xí)慣的說法)
I not only like my mother but my father as well.
however,可以直接放在句首, 也可以放在句子中間
several times 不用some times

each other : 互相
soon,強(qiáng)調(diào)時間上的快
I wonder : 感到奇怪
each(every) person : 每個人
speak English not only very carefully but very clearly.

提高口語和聽力的方式 :
1. 在讀書的時候不能very clearly,注意讀音規(guī)則
2. carefully隨遇而安, 以understand為準(zhǔn), 學(xué)會重復(fù)
3. 多聽多說

【語法精粹】P5
1.They _______ the trip until the rain stopped.
A. continued B. didn't continue √
C. hadn't continued D. would continue
until是前面和后面用一般過去是和過去完成時都對

3.It was not until then that I came to know that the earth ____around the sun.
A. moved B. has moved C. will move D. moves.√
只要是真理都用一般現(xiàn)在時
It was that 是強(qiáng)調(diào)結(jié)構(gòu), 首先將 “It was...that” 去掉, 再將 “not” 移到 “that” 后面的句子中.
分析句子時后半句改為 : I didn't come to know that the earth around the sun until then.
until then 是在那個時候之前
His father did not leave until he returned home.
變成強(qiáng)調(diào)句形式 : It was not until he returned home that his father left.

并列句的連詞
neither...nor... 既不...也不...
either ...or... 或者...或者...
both...and... 兩者都
Ⅱ 復(fù)數(shù)主語 :
1.當(dāng)主語由and或both...and連接, 通常采用復(fù)數(shù)謂語動詞.
Both the girl and the boy are his friends.
Both you and I are good students.
Ⅲ 單, 復(fù)數(shù)的靈活運(yùn)用 :
1.當(dāng)主語由 neither...nor,either...or,not only...but also 或or 連接時, 謂語動詞與nor,or,but also后面的詞一致, 在英語語法中, 這被稱之為 “就近原則”
離動詞最近的名詞是單數(shù), 整個主語就視為單數(shù)
離動詞最近的名詞是復(fù)數(shù), 整個主語就視為復(fù)數(shù)
Neither you nor I am a good student.
Neither he nor I am going to the airport.
