★Text
Do you speak English
I had an amusing experience last year.After I had left a small village in the south of France,I drove on to the next town.On the way,a young man waved to me.I stopped and he asked me for a lift.As soon as he had got into the car,I said good morning to him in French and he replied in the same language.Apart from a few words,I do not know any French at all.Neither of us spoke during the journey.I had nearly reached the town,when the young man suddenly said,very slowly,'Do you speak English?'As I soon learnt,he was English himself!
☆after:從句的標志,后面的叫時間狀語從句,主句的動作發生在從句之后。
如果兩個都是過去時,同時發生,會用進行時態;
如果一先一后發生,發生在前的動作為過去完成時態。
☆as soon as:一……就……
后面一定要加一個句子(時間狀語從句),一后面的先發生
強調兩個動作幾乎是連在一起的
☆用某種語言:in+某種語言
☆apart from:除了……之外
apart from=except for,習慣上放在句首
except for可以不放在句首,強調整體當中某 一方面除外,剩下的整體都不錯。
apart from有兩層含義:except,besides
except和besides可放在句子中間,besides指在整體上加上,except要從整體減掉
☆either of sb:……中的任何一個
neither of sb:……中的任何一個都不
either,neither都是指兩個當中的任何一個
如果不只兩個人,就是none of
none,neither一旦出現,這句話就不會再有not
☆as I learnt
learn:知道,得知;know:知道
As+主語+動詞+逗號+句子(as:正如)
eg:As we know,the New Concept English is very good.
★Key structures
過去完成時
過去的過去或兩個動作都在過去,一個動作在前,一個在后,發生在前的動作為過去完成時。
過去完成時一定要以一個過去時態做鋪墊,這個動作一定要發生在had done之后。
[特殊]until:主句和從句兩個都用一般過去時對,任何一個用過去完成時也對。
