Lesson 38 Everything except the weather唯独没有考虑到天气Why did Harrison sell his house so quickly?

My old friend, Harrison, had lived in the Mediterranean for many years before he returned to England. He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settle down in the country. He had no sooner returned than he bought a house and went to live there. Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold. After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock. He acted as if he had never lived in England before. In the end, it was more than he could bear. He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country. The dream he had had for so many years ended there. Harrison had thought of everything except the weather.

参考译文

我的老朋友哈里森在回到英国以前曾多年居住在地中海地区。过去他常幻想退休后到英国，并计划在乡间安顿下来。他刚一回到英国便买下了一幢房子住了进去。但紧接着他就开始抱怨那里的天气了。因为即使那时仍为夏季，但雨总是下个不停，而且常常冷得厉害。在阳光下生活了那么多年的哈里森对此感到惊奇。他的举动就好像他从未在英国生活过一样。最后，他再也忍受不住，还没等安顿下来就卖掉了房子，离开了这个国家。他多年来的幻想从此破灭。哈里森把每件事情都考虑到了，唯独没想到天气。

任务型阅读

How do you feel when you have to make a speech in front of class? What about when you go to a birthday party? Do you get really shy?

Shyness means feeling nervous or frightened when you’re around other people. Experts (专家) have found that more than 80 percent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences.

It’s OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just a case of how much.

Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay the bill (账单). Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person.

If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are quieter and cleverer because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. Some great people in history were shy, too.

You see, being shy isn’t all bad. But remember not to let good chances pass by just because of it! If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practise your spoken English in front of others, just do it! There’s nothing to be afraid of.

Shyness

Meaning ●To feel 1. or frightened

裕兴新概念英语第二册笔记第38课

Lesson 38 Everything except the weather唯独没有考虑到天气 Why did Harrison sell his house so quickly? My old friend, Harrison, had lived in the Mediterranean for many years before he returned to England. He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settle down in the country. He had no sooner returned than he bought a house and went to live there. Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold. After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock. He acted as if he had never lived in England before. In the end, it was more than he could bear. He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country. The dream he had had for so many years ended there. Harrison had thought of everything except the weather. 参考译文 我的老朋友哈里森在回到英国以前曾多年居住在地中海地区。过去他常幻想退休后到英国，并计划在乡间安顿下来。他刚一回到英国便买下了一幢房子住了进去。但紧接着他就开始抱怨那里的天气了。因为即使那时仍为夏季，但雨总是下个不停，而且常常冷得厉害。在阳光下生活了那么多年的哈里森对此感到惊奇。他的举动就好像他从未在英国生活过一样。最后，他再也忍受不住，还没等安顿下来就卖掉了房子，离开了这个国家。他多年来的幻想从此破灭。哈里森把每件事情都考虑到了，唯独没想到天气。 【New words and expressions】（6） 1 except [ik'sept] prep.除了 2 Mediterranean[?medit?'reini?n] n.(the～)地中海 3 complain [k?m'plein] v.抱怨 4 continually [k?n'tinju?li] ad.不断地 5 bitterly ['bit?li] ad.刺骨地 6 sunshine ['s?n?ain] n.阳光 一．单词讲解 except prep．除了，除了…外 eg.

新概念英语第二册：第37课课文详解及语法解析

新概念英语第二册：第37课课文详解及语法解析 课文详注 Further notes on the text Olympic Games will be held in our country in four years'time. 4年以后，奥林匹克运动会将在我们国家举行。 (1)作为专有名词的一部分时 games 的第一个字母要大写。 (2)这句话的语态是被动语态用于一般将来时(will be held)。 (3)in four years' time，4年之后。 in的这种用法在第9课的语法中已经讲过，它通常与将来时连用表示“……时间之后”： I'll be back in ten minutes or half an hour. 我10分钟或半个小时以后回来。 名词的所有格用于表示时间在第13课的语法中已经提到过： He will arrive in three hours' time. 他3小时以后到达。 a great many people will be visiting the country, the government will be building new hotels, an immense stadium, and a new Olympic-standard swimming pool. 因为将有大批的人到我们国家来，所以政府准备建造一些新的饭店、一个大型体育场和一个新的奥运会标准游泳池。 (1)连词as用于表示原因时通常位于句首，这是因为它所表明的原因对于讲话对象可能是已知的，所以没有必要再予以强调。 连词 because任何时候都能够代替as来说明一种或几种原因，但是as则不一定总能代替 because： As you can't type the letter yourself, you'll have to ask Susan to do it for you.

Frank is now the head of a very large business company, but as a boy he used to work in a small shop. It was his job to repair bicycles and at that time he used to work fourteen hours a day. He saved money for years and in 1938 he bought a small work-shop of his own. During the war Frank used to make spare parts for aeroplanes. At that time he had two helpers. By the end of the war, the small work-shop had become a large factory which employed seven hundred and twenty-eight people. Frank smiled when he remembered his hard early years and the long road to success. He was still smiling when the door opened and his wife came in. She wanted him to repair their son's bicycle! 昨天下午弗兰克.霍金斯向我讲述了他年轻时的经历。在退休前，弗兰克是一家非常大的商业公司的经理，但他小时候却在一家小铺里做工。他那时的工作是修理自行车，并且通常是一天工作14个小时。他靠多年积蓄，于1958年买下了自己的一个小铺子。20多岁的时候，弗兰克曾生产飞机零配件。那时他有两个帮手。几年之后，小铺子已经发展成了一个雇有728人的大工厂。弗兰克回想着他早年的艰难经历和走过的漫长的成功之路，微笑了。他正笑着的时候门开了，他的妻子走了进来。她叫他去修理孙子的自行车。 Lesson32 Shopping made easy 购物变得很方便

新概念英语第二册课后习题答案详解Lesson 37 新概念英语第二册课后习题答案详解Lesson 37 练习答案Key to written exercises 1．关键句型练习答案 A What will happen: will be held(1.1); will be held(1.5);will be called(1.6) What will be happening: will be visiting (1.2); will be building(1.3); will also be building (1.4); will be watching (1.9) What will have happened: will have completed(1.7); will have finished (1.8) 2．难点练习答案 1 holding… looking forward to 2 look out 3 look… up 4 is holding 5 look… up 6 held… looking forward to 3．多项选择题答案 1. c 根据课文第1-4行，The Olympic Games will be held in four years' time...the government will be building new hotels, an immense stadium, and a new Olympic-standard swimming pool,可以判断出只有c. planned(计划)与课文的实际情况相符合，很多新的楼房只是打算（将要）建造，还没有建成，因此应该用has been planned. 其他3个选择都有“已经建成”的含义，所以不对。 2. b 根据课文最后一句…because they have never been held before in this country, 只有b. have never been held before in this country 与事实相符，其他3个选择都不符合课文的实际内容。 3. b 前一句Workers will have completed the new roads by the end of this year.(工人们将在今年年底把新路铺好)是将来完成时,表示将要完成的动作,实际还没有完成. a. have already finished(已经完成了)不符合事实 c. finished a long time ago(很久前完成的)更不对 d. are finishing now(正在完成)也不够准确 只有b. haven't finished yet(还没有完成)与前一句意思相符合.所以选b.

新概念英语第二册课后题答案详解：Lesson34

新概念英语第二册课后题答案详解：Lesson34 新概念英语第二册语法Lesson 34 1. d 根据课文第3行Dan wondered why he was wanted by the police… 能够判断d. he didn’t know why the police wanted him 是感到焦虑的真正原因，所以应该选d. 其他3个选择都是课文提及的情况，但不是他焦虑的真正原因。 2. a 根据课文第8-9行Dan was most surprised… he never expected the bicycle to be found 能够判断，只有a. had probably forgotten all about his bicycle(可能把他的自行车早忘得一干二净了)符合当时的心情，是准确答案。其他3个选择都不符合他当时的心理感受。 3. b (c)yet (d)anymore 都不符语法,因为它们常用于否定句中,而本 句是肯定句. (a)even 不符合题意,应该同比较级连用才准 确;(b)still 能够用在肯定句中表示仍然,还,所以只能选(b)still 4. c a. had been finding 和 d. have been finding 都不是准确的 时态，动词find(找到)强调结果，不应该用实行时态; b. had been found语态不对，因为本句的主语是人，是动作的执行者，故不能用被动语态; c. had found最合乎时态和语态，所以只能选c 5. a

本句是对地点提问的疑问句，回答是In a small village,只有a. Where 是问地点的，所以a. 是准确答案，而其他3个选择都不是问 地点的。 6. d a. to 和 b. to be 都不合乎语法,因为以that引导的是从句,应 该有主语和谓语,而不应该是用to引导的动词不定式, c. they也不合乎语法,因为主句动词是过去式,从句也应该是过去时态. d. they would 是过去将来时,最合乎语法,所以只能选它. 7. c 本句有表示过去时间的状语twenty years ago(20年前)，所以应 该用一般过去时。a. stolen 是过去分词，不能做谓语;b. has stolen 是现在完成时，不合乎时态; d. was stolen 是被动语态， 不准确，因为本句的主语是人，是动作的执行者，应该用主动语态;只 有c. stole 是过去式，符合语法，所以应该选c. 8. b a. topical(话题的)， b. local(地方的，当地的)， c. native(出生地的，本地的，本国的)，d. neighbourly(友好的，睦邻的)。只有b. 最适合于这个句子，其他3个词都不合乎题目意思。 9. c 只有选c. on之后才表示“拜访”，最合乎题目意思和语法。 a. at 后面应该跟地点，而不应该跟人;b. in 不是准确表达方式;选d. up 之后表示“给……打电话”，不合乎题目意思。 10. b 只有选b. 才能同前一句The bicycle was picked up four hundred miles away(自行车是在400英里外发现的)意思相符。 Picked up (发现，拾到)同found意思最接近;而a. picked(挑选，

Lesson 60 The future 【New words and expressions】future n. 未来，前途 fair n. 集市fortune-teller n. 算命人crystal n. 水晶relation n. 亲属impatiently adv. 不耐烦地 ★relation n. 亲属 ①n. （事物间的）关系，关联（不可数） I know little about the relation of/between time and space. Is there any relation between the hot snake and the forest fire? ②n. （国家、人民等之间的）关系，往来（可数） Friendly relations have been developed between the two cities. They have broken relations with that firm. ③n. 亲戚，亲属（可数） A near relation of yours is coming to see you. 【Text】 At a village fair, I decided to visit a fortune-teller called Madam Bellinsky. I went into her tent and she told me to sit down. After I had given her some money, she looked into a crystal ball and said: 'A relation of yours is coming to see you. She will be arriving this evening and intends to stay for a few days. The moment you leave this tent, you will get a big surprise. A woman you know well will rush towards you. She will speak to you and then she will lead you away from this place. That is all.' As soon as I went outside, I forgot all about Madam Bellinsky because my wife hurried towards me. 'Where have you been hiding?' she asked impatiently. 'Your sister will be here in less than an hour and we must be at the station to meet her. We are late already.' As she walked away, I followed her out of the fair. 【课文讲解】 1、A relation of yours is coming to see you. a relation of yours 您的一个亲戚（双重所有格） 句中的现在进行时并不表示目前正在进行的动作，而表示将要发生的事情。 2、The moment you leave this tent, you will get a big surprise. the moment = as soon as 一……就……（在这个连词引导的时间状语从句中要用一般现在时来表示将来时） 3、That is all. 在口语中表示“完了，就这些，事情就是这样”。 He borrowed some money from me. That’s all. 他向我借了些钱，仅此而已。 4、As soon as I went outside, I forgot all about Madam Bellinsky because my wife hurried towards me. 这句话中的all 是代词，表示“一切，全部，所有的事”，它作主语时被视为单数： All I can remember is her name. hurry towards sb. 向某人匆匆走去 5、Your sister will be here in less than an hour and we must be at the station to meet her. must be表示用现在时态指将来的状况，这句话也可变成： We must go to the station to meet her. 【Key structures】表示将要发生的事情 在英语中，现在进行时也可用来表示为将来安排好的活动和事件。这种用法通常需要一个表示时间的状语（往往是不久的将来）。arrive，come，go，leave 等动词的进行式经常有这种用法，表示行程安排有关的“将到达，_____ 将离去”等意思： He’s arriving this evening.
