【Text】

Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting. I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. "I can't hear a word!" I said angrily.

"It's none of your business," the young man said rudely. "This is a private conversation!"

参考译文：

上星期我去看戏。我的座位很好, 戏很有意思, 但我却无法欣赏. 一青年男子与一青年女子坐在我的身后, 大声地说着话。我非常生气, 因为我听不见演员在说什么。我回过头去怒视着那一男一女, 他们却毫不理会。最后, 我忍不住了, 又一次回过头去, 生气地说：“我一个字也听不见了!” 

“不关你的事, “那男的毫不客气地说, “这是私人间的谈话!” 

【课文讲解】

1、Last week I went to the theatre.

动词go的原义是离开一个地方去另一个地方，与介词to连用后，常加上主语所要去的目的来代表主语的动作目的。

go to the +地点  表示去某地干嘛

go to the theatre = go to the theatre to see a play去剧场看戏

go to the cinema =see a film  去电影院看电影

go to the dairy  去牛奶店

go to the + 人 + 's 表示去这个人开的店

go to the doctor's 去看病；go to the butcher's 买肉

以下短语中名词前不加冠词：

go to school 去上学；go to church 去做礼拜；go to hospital(病院) 去看病；go to bed  上床，睡觉；go home（跟home相连必然表示没有事情可做,回家休息）

I am at home.  在家休息

2、I had a very good seat.

seat一般指戏院、汽车等配置的固定座位，也可以抽象地表示“座位”或“位子”等概念。

the front seat of a car  汽车的前座

Take a seat, please.   请坐。

3、I did not enjoy it.

enjoy  vt. 欣赏，享受，喜爱

① enjoy +n.  喜欢,从傍边得到一种享受（后面不能跟人）

I enjoy the music.

enjoy the dinner/film/program/game

② enjoy oneself/代词   玩的开心

We always enjoy ourselves. 

③ enjoy +动名词

Jane doesn’t enjoy swimming. She enjoys going to the theatre.

4、I got very angry.  

get在这里有“逐渐变得”的含义，接近become，是个表示过程的动词，表示状态的变化。而I was very angry则仅表示当时的状态是生气，并不暗示过程。

I am/was angry. 是一个事实

I got angry.  强调变化过程

It is hot.

It got hot.

got取代be动词，got是一个半联系动词,可以直接加形容词。

5、I could not hear the actors. I turned round.

hear+人:听见某人的话

I could not hear you. Beg your pardon?

I couldn't hear you./I couldn't hear a word./I couldn't catch your words.

I couldn't hear you clearly./I couldn't catch your words.

Beg your pardon? /I couldn't catch your words.

turn round =turn around  转身

6、In the end, I could not bear it.

in the end 最后，终于，表示一段较长的时间之后或某种努力之后

  She tried hard to finish her homework by herself. In the end, she had to ask her brother for help.

I could not bear it/you/the noise.

7、I can't hear a word!

I can't hear a word.

美音:必定I can [] 否定,I can't[],它的/t/是吞进去的, 在读音上很难区别, 只能按照上下文来定

hear a word of sb.  （a word 等于一句话）

He didn't say a word.

May I speak to Jim?/May I have a word with Jim?

8、It's none of your business.

one’s business  指某人（所关心的或份内）的事

It's none of your business./None of your business./It's my business.  不关你的事。

It is my business to look after your health.   我必需照顾你的身体健康。

none相当于not any或no one，但语气较强。

She kept none of his letters.  他的信件她一封也没有保留。

none of 这个短语有时可以表达一种断然、甚至粗暴的口气，尤其是在祈使句中：

None of your silly remarks!  别说傻话了！

'But I'm still having breakfast,' I said.

'What are you doing?' she asked.

'I'm having breakfast,' I repeated.

  I get paid on Friday usually.

  Very often the phone rings when I’m in bath.

非实义动词 : 

① 系动词(be)

Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went to Italy. I visited museums and sat in public gardens. A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian. Then he lent me a book. I read a few lines, but I did not understand a word. Everyday I thought about postcards. My holidays passed quickly, but I did not send cards to my friends. On the last day I made a big decision. I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card!

参考译文：

明信片总搅得我假日不得安宁. 去年夏天, 我去了意大利. 我参不雅观了博物馆, 还去了公园. 一位好客的办事员教了我几句意大利语, 之后还借给我一本书. 我读了几行, 但一个字也不懂. 我每天都想着明信片的事. 假期过得真快, 可我还没有给我的伴侣们寄过一张明信片. 到了最后一天, 我作出了一项重大决定. 我早早起了床, 买来了37张明信片. 我在房间里关了整整一天. 然而竟连一张明信片也没写成!

【Key structures】　

一般过去时

一般过去时通常表示过去发生的而现在已经结束的事件、动作或情况。它通常指动作何时发生，而不指动作持续多久。

Do you ever catch a cold in the winter?

Yes, I caught a cold last winter.

【Special Difficulties】 

直接宾语与间接宾语

双宾语：直接宾语(表示动作结果，动作所涉及的事物)和间接宾语(动作目标，动作是谁做的或为谁做的，通常是人)。间接宾语大多数情况下置于直接宾语之前，如果间接宾语在后，间接宾主前必需加“to”（表示动作对什么人做）或“for”（表示动作为什么人而做）。

give sb. sth./give sth to sb

间接宾语在后面时, 其前必需加to(对……而言)或for(为……而做)。可以翻译为“给”、“替”、“为”的，就用for；如果只能翻译为“给”的, 就用to

与to相连的give, take, pass, read, sell, buy，pay，hand，bring，show，promise，offer，owe

take flowers to my wife.

与for相连的  buy, order, make, find

I buy a book for you .

make a cake for you

find sth. for sb.

do sb. a favor 帮某人一个忙

Do me a favor please./Do a favor for me?  帮我一个忙

I do something for you.

Can I order something for you?

Can I buy you a bottle of beer ? 意为我请你喝杯酒的意思
