新概念英语第二册:第31课课文详解及语法解析

课文详注 Further notes on the text

1.Before he retired, Frank was the head of a very large business company,

but as a boy he used to work in a small shop.

在退休前,弗兰克是一家非常大的商业公司的经理,但他小时侯却在一家小铺里做工。

(1)head在此处的意思不是人或动物的“头部”,而是“首领”、“头目”,一般出现在“the head of +名词”结构中:

John is the head of the family.

约翰是一家之主。

Frank is the head of that firm.

弗兰克是那家公司的总裁。

(2) as在这里为介词,表不“当……时”,as a boy相当于 as he was a boy。

2.It was his job to repair bicycles…他那时的工作是修理自行车……

it为“先行主语”,句子的真正主语为to repair bicycles。

3.He saved money for years and in 1958 he bought a small workshop of his

own. 他靠多年积蓄,于1958年买下了自己的一个小铺子。

(1)for years表示“许多年”。

(2)of one's own为固定短语,表示“自己的”、“属于自己的”,own为代词:

He wanted a room of his own.

他想要一个自己的房间。

Do you have a house of your own?

你有自己的房子吗?

4.in one's twenties,(在某人)二十多岁的时候。

one's

twenties/thirties/forties…,二十多岁/三十多岁/四十多岁……10的倍数的复数形式可用于表达近似的、非确定的数量,与所有格形容词(my等)连用时表示大约的年龄:

My aunt Jennifer is in her late thirties/early forties, but she often

appears on the stage as a young girl.

我的姑妈詹妮弗已接近四十岁/四十出头,但她却常在舞台上扮演小姑娘。

5.Frank smiled when he remembered his hard early years and the long road to success. 弗兰克回想着他早年的艰难经历和走过的漫长的成功之路,微笑了。

(1)hard意思很多,在这里指“艰难的”、“困苦的”:

She lived a hard life in those years.

那些年她的生活很艰难。

(2)one's early years指某人的早年(生活),意义相近的表达方式为early in one's life。

(3) the long road to

success是一种比喻的说法,因为success是抽象名词。to在这里表示方向、目的地,意义为“朝”、“往”、“向”等,这个短语的字面意义为“通向成功的漫漫长路”。

语法 Grammar in use

1.过去进行时与一般过去时

在第7课的语法中我们学习了过去进行时。它主要表示过去某个时刻或某段时间正在进行的动作,和一般过去时经常在一个句子里使用。与一般过去时相比,它更强调动作的持续性,一般过去时则表示比较短暂的动作或事件。在叙述故事时,过去进行时往往用来表示背景:

Yesterday afternoon Frank Hawkins was telling me about his experiences as a

young man.

昨天下午弗兰克·霍金斯向我讲述了他年轻时的经历。

He was still smiling when the door opened and his wife came in.

他正笑着的时候门开了,他的妻子走了进来。

Last Sunday, I went and sat on the river bank as usual.

Some children were playing games on the bank and there were some people

rowing on the river.

上星期天,我和往常一样,又去河边坐着。河岸上有些孩子正在玩耍,河面上有些人正在划船。(过去进行时描述背景)

比较典型的表示过去正在进行的动作的表达方式如:

What were you doing at two o'clock?I was looking for you everywhere.

两点钟时你在干什么?我到处找你。

I was fishing.

我那时在钓鱼。

https://www.360docs.net/doc/0d15899803.html,ed to do

我们用used to do表示过去有过但现在已不存在的习惯,以便将过去与现在形成对照。它后面经常用由but now…,but not…any

more/any longer等构成的、用了一般现在时的句子以强调过去和现在的不同之处。

I used to smoke, but I don't any more/any longer.我过去常吸烟,但现在已不吸了。

He used to be a lazy boy, but now he is very

hard-working.他过去是个懒孩子,但现在他很勤奋。

used to仅用于一般过去时。它的疑问句和否定句形式可以不用助动词do而用used本身:

Used he to smoke?

他过去吸烟吗?

He usedn't / used not to smoke.

他从前并不吸烟。

但比较常用的形式是did和didn't:

Did he use to smoke?

他过去吸烟吗?

He didn't use to smoke.

他从前不吸烟。

在针对used to提间时,一般也用did:

I used to be a good swimmer.

我过去是个游泳好手。

Did you really?I didn't even know you could swim. 真约吗?我以前甚至不知道你会游泳。

Before he retired, Frank was the head of a very large business company, but as a boy he used to work in a small shop.

I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card! 明信片总是破坏我的假期。去年夏天,我去了意大利。我参观了博物馆,然后坐在公园里。一位好客的服务员教了我几句意大利语。然后他借给我一本书。我读了几行,但一个字也不懂。我每天都想着明信片的事。假期过得真快,可我还没有给我的朋友寄卡片。在最后一天我做了一个重大的决定。我起得很早,买了三十七张明信片。我花了一整天在我的房间,但我没有写一张卡片!

Some children were playing games on the bank and there were some people rowing on the river. 上星期天,我和往常一样,又去河边坐着。河岸上有些孩子正在玩耍,河面上有些人正在划船。(过去进行时描述背景) 比较典型的表示过去正在进行的动作的表达方式如:What were you doing at two o'clock? I was looking for you everywhere. 你两点钟在干什么?我到处找你。 I was fishing. 我在钓鱼。 我们用used to do表示过去有过但现在已不存在的习惯,以便将过去与现在形成对照。它后面经常用由but now…, 1
