Lesson 78 The last one? 最后一枝嗎?

First listen and then answer the question.
聽錄音,然后回答以下問題。
For how long did the writer give up smoking?

    
After reading an article entitled 'Cigarette Smoking and Your Health' I lit a cigarette to calm my nerves. I smoked with concentration and pleasure as I was sure that this would be my last cigarette. For a whole week I did not smoke at all and during this time, my wife suffered terribly. I had all the usual symptoms of someone giving up smoking: a bad temper and an enormous appetite. My friends kept on offering me cigarettes and cigars. They made no effort to hide their amusement whenever I produced a packet of sweets from my pocket. After seven days of this I went to a party. Everybody around me was smoking and I felt extremely uncomfortable. When my old friend Brian urged me to accept a cigarette, it was more than I could bear. I took one guiltily, lit it and smoked with satisfaction. My wife was delighted that things had returned to normal once more. Anyway, as Brian pointed out, it is the easiest thing in the world to give up smoking. He himself has done it lots of times!

參考譯文

讀完一篇題為《吸煙與健康》的文章之后,我點(diǎn)上了一枝香煙,來鎮(zhèn)定一下自己緊張的神經(jīng)。我聚精會(huì)神而又愉快地吸著這枝煙。因?yàn)槲掖_信這是我最后一枝煙了。整整一個(gè)星期我根本沒有吸煙。在此期間,我妻子吃盡了苦頭。我具備了戒煙者通常表現(xiàn)出來的所有癥狀:脾氣暴躁和食欲旺盛。我的朋友們不斷地向我遞香煙和雪茄。每當(dāng)我從口袋里掏出一包糖果時(shí),他們都毫不掩飾地表現(xiàn)出他們對(duì)此感到非常好笑。這樣過了7天以后,我去參加一次聚會(huì)。我周圍的每個(gè)人都在吸煙,我感到非常不自在。當(dāng)我的老朋友布賴恩極力勸我接受一枝香煙時(shí),我再也忍不住了。我內(nèi)疚地接過一枝點(diǎn)上,心滿意足地抽起來。一切又都恢復(fù)了正常,為此我妻子十分高興。不管怎么說,正如布賴恩指出的那樣,戒煙是世界上最容易的事情,他自己就已戒了很多次了!

 

  自學(xué)導(dǎo)讀
  1. an article entitled‘Cigarette Smoking and Your Health’,一篇題為《吸煙與健康》的文章。
  在英語中,文章名與書名中的每個(gè)單詞的第一個(gè)字母均大寫,不在開頭位置的連詞、冠詞、小品詞除外。entitle的含義為“給
  ……題名/定名”,在這里是過去分詞(短語)作定語。entitle常
  用于被動(dòng)語態(tài):
  The writer hasn't entitled his new book yet.
  那位作家還沒給他的新書寫/取名。
  The book was entitled The Sun Also Rises.
  那本書的書名為《太陽照樣升起》。
  2. I had all the usual symptoms of someone giving up smoking: a bad temper and an enormous appetite. 我具備了戒煙者通常表現(xiàn)出來的所有癥狀:脾氣暴躁和食欲旺盛。
  a bad temper and an enormous appetite為symptoms的同位語。
  giving up smoking可以看做是someone的定語,即someone who gives up smoking.
  3. My friends Kept on offering me cigarettes and cigars. 我的朋友們不斷地向我遞香煙和雪茄。
  keep on doing sth.表示“繼續(xù)做某事”、“反復(fù)做某事”:

  He kept on phoning her.
  他不斷地給她打電話。
  4.They made no effort to hide…他們毫不掩飾地……
  make no effort表示“根本不作努力”。我們還可以說:
  She wrote the letter with/without effort.
  她費(fèi)力地/毫不費(fèi)力地寫了那封信。
  Georeg made every effort to get/at getting the job.
  喬治竭盡全力想得到那份工作。
  5. …it was more than I could bear. ……我再也忍不住了。more than后面跟一個(gè)從句或一個(gè)形容詞時(shí)可以表示“超出”
 ?。ǘ嘤糜诳谡Z):
  He was more than pleased with his new room.
  他對(duì)自己的新房間極其滿意。
  This was more than I had expected.
  這超出了我的預(yù)料。
  6.Anyway,as Brian pointed out, it is the easiest thing in the world to give up smoking.不管怎么說,正如布賴恩指出的那
  樣,戒煙是世界上最容易的事情。
  it為先行主語,代替后面的不定式短語 to give up…。 point out為固定短語,表示“指出”、“指明”:
  Why didn't you point out his mistake to him at that time?
  你那時(shí)候?yàn)槭裁床幌蛩赋鏊腻e(cuò)誤?
  He pointed out that we still had to get a few other things.
  他指出我們還需要/得再買一些其他東西。
