新概念英語第二冊課文注釋Lesson49
1.Tired of sleeping on the floor, a young man in Teheran saved up for years to buy a real bed. 德黑蘭的一個年輕人由于對睡地板感到厭倦,于是積蓄多年買了一張真正的床。
(1)tired引導(dǎo)的分詞短語省略了開頭的being,其作用相當(dāng)于原因狀語從句:As he was tired of…。sleeping為動名詞,作介詞of的賓語。
(2)save up為固定短語,表示“儲蓄”、“攢錢”:
I want to get married in one or two years, so I'm trying to save(some money)up.
我想一兩年之間內(nèi)結(jié)婚,所以我在設(shè)法攢錢。
(3)to在這里用于表示目的,相當(dāng)于in order to:
I got up early to have a swim.
為了游泳我起了個大早。
2.…h(huán)e carried the bed on to the roof of his house.……他便把床搬到了他的屋頂上。
介詞onto可拼寫成一個詞,也可拼寫成兩個詞(on to)。它用于表示動作方向而不用于表示靜態(tài)的位置(與into相似):
I put the pen onto/ on the table.
我把筆放到桌子上。
The pen is on the table.
筆在桌子上。(不可用onto/ on to)onto/ on to有時可用on代替,但表示位置的on不可用onto代替:
Mr. Thompson jumped onto the stage.
湯普森先生跳上了臺上。
Mr. Thompson jumped on the stage.
湯普森先生在臺上跳了跳。
3.A gust of wind swept the bed off the roof…一陣大風(fēng)把床從屋頂上刮了下來……
gust表示“一陣強(qiáng)風(fēng)”、“一陣狂風(fēng)”,既可以單獨使用,也可以用a gust of wind形式:
A gust(of wind) blew my hat off.
一陣大風(fēng)吹掉了我的帽子。
She set off even though the wind was blowing in gusts.
雖然當(dāng)時陣陣狂風(fēng)吹著,她還是出發(fā)了。
4.The young man did not wake up until the bed had struck the ground.那年輕人直到床撞到地上才醒了過來。
not…until表示“直到……才”。until后面與表示某一點的時間狀語連用。它前面沒有not時,與表示一段時間的“持續(xù)動詞”連用;有not時,常用表示某一時間點的動詞(或叫瞬間動詞)連用:
I'll stay here until Monday.
我要在這兒呆到星期一。
I won't leave until Monday.
我要到星期一才離開。
5.to pieces, 粉碎地,成碎片地。
The cup was broken to pieces.
杯子摔成了碎片。
6.Glancing at the bits of wood and metal that lay around him, the man…
年輕人看了一眼周圍的碎木片和碎金屬片……
(1)glancing為現(xiàn)在分詞,它引導(dǎo)的短語相當(dāng)于一個時間狀語從句:After he glanced at…
(2)動詞glance的主要含義為“看一眼”、“掃視”:
Ian glanced at his watch and left the room.
伊恩看了一眼手表,然后離開了房間。
Joe glanced through the newspaper while talking to me.
喬一邊和我聊天,一邊瀏覽報紙。
(3)that引導(dǎo)的關(guān)系從句修飾the bits of wood and metal, that在從句中作主語。

I'll go on holiday next month.
我下個月去度假。
Did you go on a trip last month?

走到車站/修理自行車花了我半個小時的時間。
2.I'll tell you where to get off.我會告訴您在哪兒下車。
(1)where to get off是一個“連接副詞+不定式短語”結(jié)構(gòu),其中的連接副詞通常為疑問副詞。這種結(jié)構(gòu)接近一個名詞從句,常
在tell, show, know, decide, teach, learn, wonder,
remember, explain等動詞后作賓語:

瑪麗告訴你什么時候來了嗎?
Do you know how to open the box?

他沒有告訴我把那些書放在哪里。
(2)get off與 get on為一對反義詞,分別表示“(從汽車等上)下來”和“登上(汽車、火車等)”,off與on既可以作副詞又可以作介詞:

in front of則表示“在……前面”,兩者間往往有距離:

他把車停在一個學(xué)校前面。
(2)不定式短語to get…在句子中作目的狀語。(cf.第49課語法)

They put me off at a small station.
他們讓我在一個小站下了車。
6.Well, in that case, I prefer to stay on the bus.好吧,既然如此,我還是留在車上吧。
(1)well單獨使用時通常為感嘆詞,有時表示同意、順從、躊躇等情感,有時則僅起連接作用,相當(dāng)于漢語的“嗯”、“噢”、“喔”等。
(2)in that/this case表示“既然是這/那樣”、“假使那/這樣的話”:

3.The list included most of the things Hugh loves…這張單子上的大多數(shù)食物都是休喜歡吃的……
It contained five large bars of chocolate and three bags of sweets!

include和contain都有“包含”的意思,但contain可以用于表示所包含的全部事物,include則只表示其中的一部分:
It included three bags of sweets.
其中有3袋糖果。(另外還有其他東西)
contain的主語通常為某個容器,include則含義更廣:

前幾天我去看望了簡。
5.…Hugh was still as fat as ever.……休仍和往常一樣胖。
as ever是as he ever was的省略形式。as…as ever這個結(jié)構(gòu)表示“照舊”、“依然”:
He is as strong as ever.
他依然那么強(qiáng)壯。
6.It was obvious that he was very embarrassed.顯然他感到很尷尬。
it為先行主語,真正的句子主語是that引導(dǎo)的從句,它在句子中起名詞的作用。從句作主語時通常前面用先行主語it,以免句子看上去頭重腳輕:
It is certain now that he'll come on Monday.
現(xiàn)在可以肯定他星期一將會來。
新概念英語第二冊Lesson52課文注釋
1.I have been trying to get my new room in order.我試圖把我的新房間收拾整齊。
(1)與課文開頭那句話的后半部分一樣,這個句子也用了現(xiàn)在完成進(jìn)行時。(cf.本課語法)

新概念英語第二冊Lesson53課文注釋
1.At last firemen have put out a big forest fire in California.消防隊員們終于撲滅了加利福尼亞的一場森林大火。
(1)at last(終于,到底)表示經(jīng)過一番努力之后。
(2)put out可以表示“撲滅”、“熄滅”、“關(guān)掉”等含義:
Please put the light/ fire out.
請把燈關(guān)掉/把火滅掉。
(3)forest雖然是名詞,但在句中起形容詞的作用,修飾fire。
2.…they have been trying to find out how the fire began.……他們一直試圖找出起火的原因。
(1)短語動詞find out表示經(jīng)過研究、努力等“發(fā)現(xiàn)”、“找出”、“查出”:

3.They were also quite sure that a cigarette end did not start the fire.他們還十分肯定火災(zāi)也不是由煙頭引起的。
(1)start作及物動詞時可以表示“使……發(fā)生”、“引起”。
(2)be sure后面跟的是名詞從句。that引導(dǎo)的這個名詞從句也可以寫成that the fire was not started by a cigarette end。但這里強(qiáng)調(diào)的是引起火災(zāi)的原因(不是碎玻璃或煙頭),所以用煙頭作主語。
4.…a fireman accidentally discovered the cause.……一個消防隊員偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)了起火的原因。
discover本身含有偶然發(fā)現(xiàn)(某個已經(jīng)存在的東西)的含義:

The villagers were surprised to see the remains of an aeroplane near the lake.
村民們驚訝地發(fā)現(xiàn)湖邊有一架飛機(jī)的殘骸。

Did you wind this piece of wire round the tree?
是你把這根鐵絲纏在樹上的嗎?
(3)wire指具體的電線、鐵絲等,line在這里指“線路”,含義比wire廣。
6.When it did so…當(dāng)它這樣做時……
so常用于一些動詞之后,代指前面提過的某個動作/某件事,以免重復(fù):
