【難點講解】

1. They are meant to be read aloud, and often use less formal language than other type of writing.

劇本是要被朗讀的，它使用的語言沒有其他文體那么正式。

“Be meant to be”+被動語態、名詞或形容詞，表示“應該用作、本應當作”和 “be supposed to be”相似。例如：

Flowers are meant to be admired, not picked.

Sitcoms are meant to be light-hearted, but this one is full of violence.

副詞aloud表示“出聲’, loudly表示 “大聲”。注意loud可以當作副詞和talk, speak, laugh連用，例如：They laughed loud and long. Can you speak a little louder?

2. You can’t write exactly the way people speak.

你不能原封不動地按照人們日常說話的習慣來寫。

the way people speak在這里是方式狀語，people speak是定語從句,修飾先行詞the way。這句話較正式的寫法可以是：

You can’t write exactly in the way that people speak.

You can’t write exactly the way in which people speak.

3. But I don’t think you are being fair at all.

但我覺得你這樣做一點也不公平。

Be+being 構成了be動詞的進行時，后面跟形容詞或名詞，表示主語當前的狀況，也可以表示進行時的被動語態。例如：

You are silly.你很蠢。(對人的評價，在這里是一種人身攻擊)

You are being silly你現在的行為或想法很蠢。(就事論事)

He is polite.他有禮貌。

He is being polite.他這樣做是出于禮貌。

Many rivers and lakes are being polluted through out China.

4. I understand you used to spend a lot of time together back when Christina was younger.

據我所知當克里思蒂娜小的時候你和她一起度過很多時光。

I understand是訪談節目和外交場合中一個常用的辭令，它比I know, I hear, I guess更靈活，對所提及信息的來源和可信度都沒有明確的說法，可以根據上下文譯成“據我所知、我聽說、我猜、我個人的理解是…等”, 也可以說My understanding is…….。

Back= in the past, 常出現在口語當中。

5. Many people in families become upset with each other over small problems.

許多家庭成員之間因為一些小問題彼此不愉快。

Upset 作vt/ vi 時重音在第二個音節上，過去式和過去分詞同形，表示“弄翻、傾覆、擾亂、使不安”。也可作名詞，重音在前。本句話里upset是過去分詞，become的表語。

表示紛爭的起因，用介詞over. 例如：

The two countries often fight over border disputes.

They are always quarreling over minor differences.

6. Small problems become big ones, however, if they are not discussed and dealt with early on.

然而，如果不盡早商討解決，小問題就會變成大問題。

Deal: n. 數量，a (good/ great) deal of +不可數名詞，交易，如： It’s a deal(成交)；v.分配、經營。詞組deal with 有 和….做生意、與…有來往、對待、對付、相關、處理等意思。它作“處理”講時，要和do with區分清楚。deal with作“處理”講時是指“怎樣對付或解決”，提問時用how; do with作“處理”講時是指“使用、處置”，提問時用what。例如：

How did you deal with pollution in the river?-We tried to treat the city’s sewage before it poured into the river.

What did you do with the sewage?-- We treated it and recycled it for industrial use.

Early on：near the beginning“在早期、剛開始的時候”，多用于口語中。

7. Recently he has been refusing to do his homework, and instead insists on wasting his time watching DVDs and listening to foreign music.

近來他一直拒絕做他的家庭作業，固執地把時間浪費在看DVD和聽外國音樂上。

Have/has been doing是現在完成進行時，指說話前一段時間一直進行或多次重復的動作。

Insist on+n/doing sth: 堅持、堅決主張(做某事)；或insist＋從句 “that sb (should) do sth”。

要注意persist in＋n/doing sth也是“堅持”，但insist on堅持的是看法或主張,竭力主張去做某事；persist in堅持的是行為和做法，即不放棄正在進行的事情。例如:

He persisted in doing that experiment though the smell in the lab was getting worse and worse.

She insisted on going out for a picnic though the sky looked ominously dark.

8. What am I to do?

我該怎么辦？

相當于What shall I do? Be動詞＋不定式表示按計劃和情理將要或應該發生的事。例如：

The president elect is to make his inaugural speech on Monday.

You are to follow his instructions to the word.

9. When I refuse to listen to him, he shouts at me and the two of us fight like crazy.

要是我拒不聽從，他就對我大喊大叫，我們倆就會象瘋了一樣爭吵。

“the two of us”我們倆，us僅指我們兩人； “two of us”我們中的兩個, us 所包含的人數大于二。

like crazy象瘋了一樣，英語口語中的習慣用法，相當于“as if we were crazy”。還可以說：like cats and dogs。

【英語語調】

語調（intonation）是一句話里聲調（pitch）高低抑揚輕重的配制和變化。英語有五種基本語調：升調（↗）、的降調（↙）、的升降調（∧）、降升調（∨）以及平調（→）。一句話除了詞匯意義（lexical meaning）還有語調意義（intonation meaning）。所謂詞匯意義就是話中所用詞的意義，而語調意義就是說話人用語調所表示的態度或口氣。一句話的詞匯意義加上語調意義才算是完全的意義。同樣的句子，語調不同，意思就會不同，請看下例：

1）A：Jean，can you bring me the newspaper？

B：Sorry？（↗）

Jean用升調說“Sorry”，其意思是“I didn't hear you．Could you say that again，please？”

2）A：Jean，can you bring me the newspaper？

B：Sorry．（↙）

在對話2）中，Jean用降調說“Sorry”，顯然其意思是拒絕幫助或無能為力。

S首先要知道英語主要有三種語調，分別是升調，降調和降升調。

升調一般表示"不確定" "話還沒有說完"或者"禮貌" 。經常用于下面幾類句型中：

（1）一般疑問句（Yes-no questions） Is he coming tonight? Have you got the tickets?

（2）反問句（Statements intended as questions） You are definitely coming? You like it?

（3）表示安慰或鼓勵（Statements intended to be soothing or encouraging.） Come with us.

（4）重復（Repetition questions） When did you come?

說話時用"降凋"，常常給人一種"完結"的印象。所以能使用降調的句子有以下幾類：

（1）陳述句（Ordinary statements） You came on Tuesday. I'd like some tea.

（2）特殊疑問句（Wh- questions） When did you come? What's the time?

（3）帶命令口吻的祈使句（Imperative sentences ( strong commands) Put it over there! Go and find it!

（4）感嘆句Exclamatory sentences What an awful film that was!

如果要表示出"說話人改變主意，或話外有話之意"，就可以用"降升調"。它主要出現在下面的句式中：

（1）含有對比的陳述句Statements where contrast is implied. You can come on Tuesday but not Monday. He doesn't want it but his brother may.

（2）含保留意見的陳述句Statements which imply reservation. I know his face. I like the colour of your dress.

（3）否認或矛盾Statements which show disagreement or contradiction ──I can't do it. ──-You can. ──She arrived on Monday. ──-On Tuesday.

（4）警告Warning. Be careful. Don't be late.
