1.“now(that)”作連詞用,表示“既然,由于,因為”。例如:Now that we know each other a little better. we get along fine. (因為我們互相有點兒了解了,所以我們處得很好。)I'm going to relax now the school year is over.(既然這學(xué)年已經(jīng)結(jié)束了,我打算好好放松一下。)My oldest son and I are getting along better now that he's getting ready to go to college.(我大兒子要準備上大學(xué)了,我們倆的關(guān)系也因此處得好點兒了。)Now I've got a car. I don't get as much exercise as I used to.(因為現(xiàn)在我有了車,我就不像以前一樣做那么多鍛煉了。)
2.“shopping list”的意思是“購物清單”。如果想表示“列購物清單”,則可以說:make a shopping list。例如:What are we going to buy? Let's make a shopping list.(我們要買些什么東西呢?咱們列個購物清單吧。)
