题一:翻译:

句中的showing at the local cinemas是现在分词短语,在句中作定语,分词短语作定语必须置于被修饰词之后,相当于一个定语从句。

题二:翻译:

2.我有两条消息要告诉你。

Neither + be动词/助动词/情态动词+主语。
Daniel, this Saturday’s talk on films has been canceled.
句中的has been+动词的过去分词,是完成时的被动语态。

语法讲解
although和though引导的让步状语从句。
让步状语从句表示即便出现从句的情况,主句动作依然会发生。在句中可翻译成“尽管、即使”,有“退一步说”的含义。

题四:翻译:
1.尽管他只是个孩子,但是他知道的很多。
2.即使你不来,我也会很开心。
3.虽然我远离我的家乡,但是我没有觉得孤独。
so...that和such...that引导的结果状语从句。
结果状语从句用来说明主句动作所带来的结果。
so...that和such...that的区别。
so是副词,修饰形容词和副词。so...that的意思是“如此……以至于……”。
such是限定词,所以只能修饰名词或名词词组。固定句型是such + a (n) (+adj.)+单数可数名词+that从句。
5
such (+adj.) +复数可数名词+that从句。
such (+adj.) +不可数名词+that从句。

6.天气太坏,以至于我不得不待在家里。
so that引导的目的状语从句。
目的状语从句用于说明主句动作发生的目的。
so that的意思是“以便、为了”,可以与in order that相替换。
引导目的状语从句时,表示“以便、为了”,从句中常使用can /could /may /might /will /would /should等情态动词或助动词。
题六:翻译:
1.你说大点声,让我听见。

题七:能力提升与拓展
Idioms are phrases and sentences that do not mean exactly what they say. Even if you know the meaning of each word you see or hear, you may not understand the idiom because
5
you don’t understand the culture behind it.
For example, if an American boy asks his mother what’s for dinner tomorrow, she may say “I’ll play it by ear”, that means she doesn’t have plans for dinner and she will decide later. “Play by ear” used to mean playing music using the sheet music, but now people often use it when they’re not talking about music.
There’re many idioms in English. If you learn to use them, your English will be more vivid and colorful. English idioms are more common in spoken English. They can be difficult to remember sometimes. Next time when you hear somebody saying to you, “Give me a hand”, you don’t necessarily stretch out your hand to him/her, but you do need to be helpful. And when the situation is out of hand, you usually can do very little to manage all that.
What about a green hand? It’s not about the color of your hand! You’re a green hand when you are very new at your work and don’t have much experience. If you and your partner always work together hand in glove, you two definitely work together very well.
Can you guess the meanings of some common English idioms to do with parts of your body?
1. An idiom is _______.
A. a phrase or a sentence that means exactly what the words say
B. a phrase or a sentence that doesn’t mean exactly what every word says
C. so difficult that nobody can understand
D. something to do with parts of your body
2. If a mother says “I’ll play it by ear” to talk about the dinner, she means _______.
A. she will cook dinner while listening to music at the same time
B. she doesn’t hear what others are talking about
C. she will play music using the sheet music instead of cooking dinner
D. she doesn’t have plans for dinner and will decide later
3. When one says “Can you give me a hand?”, he means _______.
A. he needs to hold your hand
B. he works well with you
C. he needs your help
D. he is a new comer and can’t help with the situation
4. Which of the following is NOT true according to the passage?
5
A. People use English idioms more in spoken English than in written English.
B. To understand the culture behind an idiom is important in understanding the idiom.
C. Idioms make your English more vivid and colorful so they are easy to remember.
