1
．
Last week I
went to the theatre.
上星期我去看戏。
（
1
）句首的“Last
week”点明叙述的事情发生的时间是上星期。因此整篇
课文的时态基本
上应是过去时（包括过去进行时），直接引语部分的时态除外。
（
2
）动词
go
的原义是离开一个地方去另一个
地方，与介词
to
连用后，常
加上主语
所要去的目的地来代表主语的动作目的。课文中
go to the theatre
=
go
to
the
theatre
to
see
a
play
，即去剧场看戏。类似的
还有
go
to
the
cinema
= go to the cinema to
see a film
（去电影院看电影）。这种表达方式简明扼
要。请注意在以下的短语中名词前通常不加冠词：
go to
school
上学
go to
bed
上床，睡觉
go
to
church
上教堂，去做礼拜
(cf
．第
1
册第
68
课
at
school,
at
church
；
第
1
册第
85
课
have been to school/church)
2
．
had
a very good seat
，座位很好。
seat
一般指戏院、汽车等配置的固定座位，也可以抽象地表示“座位”或
“位子”的概念：<
/p>
the
front seat of a car
汽车的前座
Take a seat,
please.
请坐。
3
．
The play was
very interesting.
戏很有意思。
interesting
属于现在分词形式的形容词，意思是“使人感兴趣”。
它通常与非人称主语连用或修饰某个事物：
This is an
interesting book/idea.
这是一本有趣的书／一个令人感兴趣的主意。
4
．?were sitting behind me.
They were talking
loudly.??坐在我的
身后，大声地说着话。
这两句的时态为过去进行时。（<
/p>
cf
．第
7
课语
法）
5
．
I got very
angry.
我非常生气。
get
在这里有“逐渐变得”的含义
，
接近
become
，
是个表示过程的动词，
表
示状态的变化。而
I was very angry
则仅表示当时的状态是生气，并不暗示
过
程。
6
．
in the end,
最后，终于。
表示一段较长的时间之后或某种努力之后：
She
tried
hard
to
finish
her
homework
by
herself.
In
the
end,
she
had
to ask her brother for help.
她试图自已完成家庭作业，但最后她不得不请她兄弟帮忙。
7
．
none of your
business,
不关你的事。
（
1
）
sb. 's
business
指某人（所关心的或份内）的事：
It is my
business to look after your health.
我必须照顾你的身体健康。
This is none of
his business.
这根本不关他的事。
（
2
）表示
否定的代词
none
意义上相当于
no
t any
或
no
one
，但语气较强：
She kept none of his
letters.
他的信件她一封也没有保留。
None of my friends left
early.
我的朋友没有一个早离开的。
none
of
这个短语有时可以表达一种断然、甚至粗暴的口气，
尤其是在祈使句中：
None of your silly remarks!
别说傻话了！
8
．
a
private conversation
，私人间的谈话。
在西方文化中人们对
private
（私人的，个人的）这个概念很看重。这个词
的名词形式
privacy
有“隐私
< br>（权）
”的意思。
所以课文中的小伙子会振振有词
地说“This
is
a
private
conversation!”不过他忘了他
是在一个
public
place
（
公众场合），而且他们的说话声太大，已经影响了别人。
语法
Grammar in use
简单陈述句的语序
(Word order in
simple statements)
主语一般为名词、
代词或名词短语，
通常位于动词之前
。
动词必须与主语“一
致”，所以主语决定动词的单复数形式（
如
I am, you are, he has
）。宾语一<
/p>
般为名词、代词或名词短语。在主动句中，宾语一般位于动词之后。一个句子不
总需要有宾语。
状语的位置比较灵活。
当一个句子
里有一种以上的副词时，
地点
副词的一般位置是在方式副词之后
、
时间副词之前，
如上面的最后一个例句。
时
间状语可以在句尾，也可以在句首：
Last night Lucy
went to the theatre.
昨晚露西去剧院看戏了。
I heard a voice at the door
just now.
我刚才听到门口有声音。
Sam listened to the story
quietly.
萨姆静静地听着故事。
The man ran away quickly.
