　　課文詳注 Further notes on the text
　　1．Where do you think you are?你認為你現(xiàn)在是在哪兒？
　　do you think 是用在特殊疑問句中的插入語，用來征詢見解或表達看法。因為句中插入語已經(jīng)是疑問式，主謂倒裝了，所以you are的位置不能再對調(diào)了。插入語一般是對句子加一些附加的解釋，在句子中作獨立成分。常用來作插入語的結(jié)構(gòu)有I hope, I think, I'm afraid, you know等。插入語可以位于句尾或句中，有時也可出現(xiàn)在疑問句中。

　　2．must have been doing sth.,一定/準是在做某事。
　　這種結(jié)構(gòu)用來表示對過去正進行的事情的推測。下文中的can't have been是 can't have been driving的省略式，在意思上與must have been driving正相反。

　　3．That's why I didn't see the sign.所以我才沒看見那牌子。
　　why I didn't see the sign作is的表語從句，以why引導的從句用來解釋事情的原因。

　　4．…you'd better take my advice! …你最好還是聽從我的勸告吧！
　　take one's advice是“聽從勸告”的意思。
　　語法 Grammar in use
　　表示猜測和推斷的情態(tài)助動詞must和can't（2）
　　must與can't不僅能表達對現(xiàn)在和將來的猜測和推斷，而且能表達對過去的猜測和推斷——這時可用 must have been表示肯定的推斷，用can't have been（而不是mustn't have been）來表示否定的推斷，如后面跟進行時則表示對過去正在進行的動作的猜測。請看例句：
　　You must have been driving at seventy miles an hour.
　　你當時肯定正以每小時70英里的速度行駛。
　　I didn't see it. I must have been dreaming.
　　我沒看見。我當時一定是在胡思亂想吧。
　　She can't have been 29.She must have been 36.
　　她那時肯定不會是29歲，她一定36歲了。
　　He can't have been reading. He must have been sleeping.
　　他那時肯定不是在看書，他準是在睡覺。
