第三十六課 動詞不定式(二)
一.本課要點及示例
在這一課里, 我們學習動詞加上賓語再加上動詞不定式的用法, 比方 "用信用 卡買" use credit cards to buy. "準許你用" permit you to use 等等, 我們還要談 一談美國人怎么用信用卡代替現錢來買東西.
首先我們聽一段對話,內容是說凱特跟亨利談起了用信用卡的事情. 請你注意 兩位英文老師的發音和語調.
F: I am happy I started carrying the credit card that the bank gave us.
M: Why is that, Kate? Did you use it to buy something?
F: I sure did. On the way home I stopped at the store to buy some beef for dinner. I forgot that I didn't have any cash with me.
M: And they permitted you to pay with the card?
F: Yes. They didn't even ask me to give them identification.
M: We have to be careful. If we lose them and someone finds them, the bank will charge us for what they buy.
F: How much has the bank authorized us to spend with the card?
M: Fifteen hundred dollars. The bank encourages us to use the card, but they will also require us to pay them back.
F: You are right, Henry. I'll remember that.But the card sure makes it easy to spend money.
現在我們聽兩位老師用慢速度再把整段對話再念一遍.
F: I am happy I started carrying the credit card that the bank gave us.
M: Why is that, Kate? Did you use it to buy something?
F: I sure did. On the way home I stopped at the store to buy some beef for dinner. I forgot that I didn't have any cash with me.
M: And they permitted you to pay with the card?
F: Yes. They didn't even ask me to give them identification.
M: We have to be careful. If we lose them and someone finds them, the bank will charge us for what they buy.
F: How much has the bank authorized us to spend with the card?
M: Fifteen hundred dollars. The bank encourages us to use the card, but they will also require us to pay them back.
F: You are right, Henry. I'll remember that.But the card sure makes it easy to spend money.
下面我把對話里包含了今天要學的語法的句子挑出來, 請英文老師再念一遍 給你聽.
M: Did you use it to buy something?
M: And they permitted you to pay with the card?
F: They didn't ask me to give them identification.
F: How much has the bank authorized us to spend with the card?
M: The bank encourages us to use the card.
M: They will also require us to pay them back.
二.動詞加賓語再加動詞不定式
聽了上面那些句子, 你可能覺得今天要學的語法并不難, 不過句子里有些詞 匯, 比方 "準許" permit, "授權"authorize. "鼓勵" encourage 等等你或許覺得有 點兒生疏. 現在我們作第一組練習, 一方面學習語法,一方面記詞匯. 我請英文 老師根據剛才那段對話念一些句子. 這些句子都跟凱特用信用卡有關系. 比 方 "銀行規定她必須有儲蓄賬戶." The bank requires her to have a saving account. "銀行可能要她付利息" The bank may ask her to pay interest.等等. 你 先注意聽男老師念句子, 然后跟著女老師把句子重復一遍.
