  课文讲解

  梅克正在和他的朋友唐聊天。

  梅克:嗨,唐!你英文课上得怎么样?

  唐 :恐怕不怎么理想。

  梅克:出了什么问题?

  唐 :我一直没进步。告诉我,为什么你的英文那么棒?

  梅克:呃,这个吗…我交了个美国女朋友。

  唐 :啊哈!就是这样。现在我知道该怎么做了!(他跑走了。)

  Key Points 重点提示

  1. improve vt. &. vi. (使)进步;改善

  improvement n. 进步

  make (a lot of/little) improvement in……

  在…上有(很大/些许的)进步

  例:Listening to English teaching radio programs can help you improve your English.

  听英语教学广播节目能够帮助你提高英文。

  If you dont listen to your tennis coach, how can you improve?

  如果你不听教练的话,又怎么能进步呢?

  I hear that your son is making a lot of improvement in his studies.

  我听说你儿子的学业进步很多。

  2. hi int. 嗨(打招呼声)

  hey int. 嘿!喂!嗳!(表惊喜、询问、引人注意等的喊声)

  例:A: Hi, Tom! How is it going?

  B: Fine, thank you.

  嗨,汤姆!最近怎么样?

  很好,谢谢。

  Hey! You 0dropped your book.

  嘿!你的书掉了。

  3. How are you doing in……?

  你在…做得怎么样?

  例: How are you doing in your new job?

  你的新工作做得怎么样?

  4. Not so well, Im afraid. = Im afraid (that) Im not doing so well in my English class.

  恐怕我英文课表现得不怎么理想。

  此处的Im afraid并不表示“害怕”,而是一种客气的用法,即等于"I think (that)从句"的用法。使用"Im afraid (that)从句"比使用"I think (that)从句"在语气上较为婉转客气。

  例:Im afraid (that) I cant help you this time.

  恐怕这次我没办法帮你了。

  5. How come 主语 动词…?= Why 倒装句? 为什么?

  使用"How come……?"时,其后不采倒装句构,用直述句即可;而使用"Why……?"时,则其后的句子要倒装。

  例:How come didnt you show up at the party? (×)

  How come you didnt show up at the party? (√)

  = Why didnt you show up at the party?

  你为什么没去那场派对?

  How come do you eat so much? (×)

  How come you eat so much? (√)

  = Why do you eat so much?

  你为什么吃那么多?

  6. Kid vt. &. vi. (口语)(与…)开玩笑 &. n. 小孩

  例:A: Im going to quit my job today.

  B: Are you kidding?

  我今天要辞职。

  你在开玩笑吧?

  John was only kidding you when he said hes gay.

  约翰跟你说他是同性恋只是在开你玩笑。

  gay a. (男)同性恋的

  That kid over there looks just like my son.

  那边那个小孩和我儿子长得好像。

  A: Hi, Jack. How are you 1 in your job?

  B: Not so well, Im 2 .

  A: Whats the 3 ?

  B: The boss says business is not 4 .
