各位親愛的聽眾朋友，歡迎來到點滴英語天天學的《每日原味美語》課堂！Juliet將帶您體驗美國哈弗大學紐約大學的口語課堂的學習內容。

今天，我們將學習這一課對話的文法。首先，我們還是來聽聽這段對話:

Jack: Hey! That girl is checking you out! Why don't you go say hello?

Tim: The last time I said hello to a girl in a place like this, she thought I was coming on to her and blew me off before I even had a chance to introduce myself.

Jack : That doesn't surprise me. Usually you strike out after one of using one your stupid pick-up lines!

Tim: I didn't go that far that time. Usually she was just playing hard to get.

Jack: Oh, no. There's Bonnie Margolin. A year ago, some mutual friends of ours fixed us up because they thought we would hit it off. Unfortunately, she was on the rebound, so I didn't want to get involved. I tried to let her down easy but she got furious ans started screaming at me. Oh, no! She's coming this way. Run!

我們來看下面的句子：

1. The last time I said hello to a girl like this...

解析：這句話中含有一個由時間副詞when引導的定語從句。先行詞是time，像表示時間的詞語time, date, day等做先行詞，引導詞用when，且when可以省略。例如：

I'll never forget the time (when ) we first meet. （我永遠也不會忘記我們第一次相遇的時間。）

The date ( when ) he joined the army was August 15th. ( 8月15日是我參軍的日子。)

2. Usually you struck out after using one of your stupid pick-up lines.

解析：after是介詞，后面接名詞，如果后面是動詞，就要使用動名詞形式，句中的using one of your stupid pick-up lines就是動名詞短語。 例如：

After winning the prize, she became famous overnight. （她獲獎后，一夜之間就成名了。）

3. She thought I was coming on to her and blew me off before I even had a chance to introduce myself.

解析：這個句子是含有賓語從句的復合句。主句是：she thought，賓語從句是：I was coming on to her and blew me off before I even had a chance to introduce myself。在這個賓語從句中有含有一個由表示的時間的連詞before引導的時間狀語從句： before I even had a chance to introduce myself。

4. A year ago, some mutual friends of ours fixed us up because they thought we would hit it off.

解析：這是一個含有由表示時間的連詞before引導的原因狀語從句的復合句。主句是：some mutual friends of ours fixed us up，從句是because they thought we would hit it off。在從句中，又含有一個賓語從句：we would hit it off。

5. I tried to let her down easy but she got furious ans started screaming at me.

解析：這是一個并列句，由連詞but連接，表示轉折。例如：

I had asked every one but only two came. （我每個人都請了，但是只來了2個人。）

6. There's Bonnie Margolin.

解析：這是倒裝句。這個倒裝結構是：There+be+somebody or something。這樣的倒裝結構往往含有強調的意味。例如：

Here is the letter you have been looking forward to. （你企盼已久的信在這兒。）

我們今天的文法學習就到此結束。See you tomorrow!
