第一、重點(diǎn)詞匯精講
mourn
雙語(yǔ)釋義:feel or show sorrow or regret for the loss of sb/sth
[Vt. Vi.] 因喪失某人或某事物而悲痛或表示哀悼
語(yǔ)法用法:~ (for/over sb/sth)
講解:mourn既可以做及物動(dòng)詞,也可以做不及物動(dòng)詞,把它視為及物動(dòng)詞的話,后面直接跟賓語(yǔ),視為不及物動(dòng)詞的話,后面可跟介詞for或者是over。
詞性變化:~ful adj. mournful 悲哀的; 令人悲痛的
~fully adv. Mournfully 悲哀地;令人悲痛地
~ness n. 悲哀,哀悼
典型例句:She mourned (for/over) her dead child for many years.(句中的for或者是over是可以省去的)
她孩子死了多年,她仍哀傷不已。
We all mourn the destruction of a well-loved building.
我們都為毀掉心愛(ài)的建筑物而痛惜。
mourning
雙語(yǔ)釋義:black or dark clothes worn as a (conventional) sign of grief at sb's death
[U.C. ] 喪服(黑色或深色的)
典型例句:When grandmother died they went into mourning.
祖母逝世時(shí)他們開(kāi)始服喪。
She was in mourning for a month.
她服喪一個(gè)月。
第二、重點(diǎn)短語(yǔ)精講
1. go into mourning:開(kāi)始舉哀,服喪,戴孝
講解:go into mourning意思是指開(kāi)始服喪,含有“開(kāi)始”的意味在其中,相當(dāng)于“start to wear mourning”。表示“戴重孝”,在mourning前面加上full即可。
例句:The court will go into mourning for the late king.
皇室將為故王服喪。
She shocked me by refusing to go into full mourning.
她拒絕戴重孝,這使我大為震驚.
2. in mourning:服喪,戴孝
講解:in在這里的意思是“穿”的意思,mourning是指“戴孝服”,in mourning直譯是“穿戴孝服”,引申為“在戴孝之中”的意思。
例句:The women began to wail in mourning.
女人們開(kāi)始哀哭起來(lái)。
The family was dressed in mourning for the funeral.
全家都穿了喪服去參加葬禮。
3. mourn somebody as somebody:以......的身份去服喪
講解:mourn是動(dòng)詞,as是介詞,動(dòng)詞后面接要被吊喪的人,as后面接somebody,是指活著的人的身份。
例句:You should morn her as her relative.
你是她的親戚的身份為她吊喪。
5. be up to sb
講解:這是習(xí)慣用語(yǔ),在口語(yǔ)中用得非常廣泛,意思是“有某人決定”。使用這個(gè)短語(yǔ)時(shí),主語(yǔ)通常是it,要表示做某事有某人自己決定的話,用這個(gè)句式:It is up to you to do something.
例句:I don't care when you clean the house. It's up to you.
我才不管你什么時(shí)候打掃房子呢,這由你自己決定。
It is up to you to decide when we will start.
這該有你來(lái)決定我們什么時(shí)候出發(fā)。
第三、重點(diǎn)短語(yǔ)回顧
know about:知道,了解,知曉,聽(tīng)說(shuō)關(guān)于......的情況
