起床太晚

It was Sunday. I never get up early on Sundays. I sometimes stay in bed until lunchtime. Last Sunday I got up very late. I looked out of the window. It was dark outside. 'What a day!' I thought. 'It's raining again.' Just then, the telephone rang. It was my aunt Lucy. 'I've just arrived by train,' she said. 'I'm coming to see you.'

'But I'm still having breakfast,' I said.

'What are you doing?' she asked.

'I'm having breakfast,' I repeated.

'Dear me,' she said. 'Do you always get up so late? It's one o'clock!'

【課文翻譯】

那是個星期天,而在星期天我是從來不早起的,有時我要一直躺到吃午飯的時候。上個星期天,我起得很晚。我望望窗外,外面一片昏暗。“鬼天氣!”我想,“又下雨了。”正在這時,電話鈴響了。是我姑母露西打來的。“我剛下火車,”她說,“我這就來看你。”

“但我還在吃早飯,”我說。

“你在干什么?”她問道。

“我正在吃早飯,”我又說了一遍。

“天啊,”她說,“你總是起得這么晚嗎?現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)1點(diǎn)鐘了!”

【生詞和短語】

until prep. 直到

ring v. (鈴、電話等)響

aunt n. 姑,姨,嬸,舅母

repeat v. 重復(fù)

【知識點(diǎn)講解】

1 get up [短語] (使)起床

get up 還有①起身、站起(相當(dāng)于stand up);②(海浪、風(fēng)等)增強(qiáng)、變猛烈的意思。

例句:Everyone get up when the manager came in.

當(dāng)經(jīng)理走進(jìn)來時每個人都站立起來了。

2 sometimes 有時候

sometime,sometimes,some time,some times用法區(qū)別

sometime

(1)副詞:某個時候。可指過去或?qū)淼哪硞時候。

(2)形容詞:(指某人曾經(jīng)是……)從前的,過去的,意思類似former,偶爾的。

例句:We’ll take our holiday sometime in August.

我們會在八月找個時間度假。(將來)

This is our sometime general manager.

這是我們的前任總經(jīng)理。(過去)

sometimes 副詞:有時候。另外,at times也是“有時”的意思。

例句:Sometimes, I recall the campus life.

有時候,我會回想起大學(xué)生活。

some time 某段時間。常與for連用。

例句:I will stay here for some time.

我將在這兒待一段時間。

some times 幾次。several times也可以表示“幾次”,但比some times較確定。time作可數(shù)名詞時可作“次數(shù)”解;表示“時間”時是不可數(shù)名詞。

例句:He has been to America some times.

他去過幾次美國。

3 outside adv. 在外面;向外面,也可表示在戶外。

例句:I am cleaning the house, please wait outside for several minutes.

我正在打掃屋子,請在外等幾分鐘。

4 on sundays,指每個星期日。星期幾的前面要用介詞on。

例句:I usually go hiking on Friday.

我通常在星期五去遠(yuǎn)足。

5 What a day!

多么糟糕的天氣!這是一個省略的感嘆句。完整的句子應(yīng)該是What a day it is!英語中的感嘆句常用what開頭,后面緊跟一個名詞或名詞性短語(包括連系動詞),然后是主語和謂語,句尾用感嘆號,即其基本形式是:What+(a)名詞+主謂結(jié)構(gòu)。使用what感嘆句時要注意:如果what后面是可數(shù)名詞單數(shù),則一定要加不定冠詞。what后面的名詞詞組不能加定冠詞。

例句:What a happy day we had yesterday!

昨天真是開心的一天!

What bad news it was!

真是個壞消息!

6 I'm coming to see you.

在這句話中,是用現(xiàn)在進(jìn)行時表示近期計劃或安排將要進(jìn)行的動作。

具有這種語法功能的詞僅限于過渡性動詞,比如:come, go, leave, start, arrive, return等。

例句:My aunt is coming tonight.

我姨媽今晚要來。

【上期作業(yè)回顧】

將下面的三個句子翻譯成英語。

1 因為那時她在外地出差,所以她沒來。

She didn't come because she was on a business trip at that time.

2 我聽見她的笑聲。

I heard her laughing.

3 沒人注意他離開了。

Nobody paid attention to his leave.
