法語早上好：第十四課:Do you speak English課文

第十四課:Do you speak English

課文

I had an amusing experience last year. After I had left a small village in the south of France, I drove on 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!

翻譯

我去年有過一次有趣的經(jīng)歷。離開法國南部的一個小村莊后，我繼續(xù)前往下一個城市。在路上，一個年輕人向我招手。我把車停下來，他讓我坐公交車。他一上車，我就用法語和他打招呼，他也用法語回答我。我根本不會法語，除了幾個單詞。我們沒有在旅途中說話。當(dāng)他要到達(dá)那個鎮(zhèn)時，那個年輕人突然張開嘴，漸漸地說：“你會說英語嗎？” 很快我就知道他是個英國人！

課文精解

1．After I had left a small village in the south of France, I drove on to the next town. 離開法國南部的一個小村莊后，我繼續(xù)前往下一個城市。

(1)在某個大規(guī)模的地方使用介詞in表示使用介詞。:

Beijing is in the north of China.

位于中國北部的北京。

當(dāng)副詞on跟在動詞后面時，可以表示“前進(jìn)”、“繼續(xù)”等意義：

He talked on until everybody had gone.

他滔滔不絕地說，大家都走了。

I was reading when my friend called. After he had

gone, I went on to read.

在朋友來看我之后，我正在讀書。在他離開之后，我繼續(xù)讀書。

2．I stopped and he asked me for a lift. 我把車停下來，他讓我坐公交車。

lift這個名詞的含義之一是“(給步行者)搭便車”、“免費(fèi)搭車”：

Last night, I had to walk home. No one would give me a lift.

昨天晚上我不得不回家。沒有人愿意讓我坐公交車。

I was lucky today. I got a lift soon after I had left the village.

今日運(yùn)氣不錯，離開村子不久就趕上了便車。

3．As soon as he had got into the car, I said good morning to him in French and he replied in the same language. 一上車，我就用法文問他早上好，他也用法文回答我。

(1)固定短語as表示時間。 soon as通常表示“一…………”，也就是說，兩個動詞之間的間隔很短：

Tell him the news as soon as you meet him.

當(dāng)你遇到他時，你會告訴他這個消息。

(2)用某種語言作為交際方式時，用in作為介詞，說某種語言時可以不加介詞：

speak English/ French 講英語／法文

That book is written in German.

這本書是用德語寫的。

He replied the question in English.

他用英語回答了這個問題。

過去完成時由 had 過去由單詞組成，表示過去某個時間或某個動作發(fā)生前已經(jīng)完成的動作或狀態(tài)，即“早期過去”。使用

在過去完成時態(tài)的句子中，常用的連詞有 when, after, as soon as, until, by that time等：

her breakfast.

當(dāng)我早晨醒來時，她已經(jīng)吃過早餐了。

我犯了一個錯誤。我一打完電話就意識到了。

直到你告訴我，我才知道她是個著名的演員。

經(jīng)常使用already等現(xiàn)在完成時連用的副詞， just, never, never...before在完成過程中也經(jīng)常使用，以強(qiáng)調(diào)事件發(fā)生的順序：

The boys loved the zoo. They had never seen wild animals before.

男孩喜歡動物園，以前從未見過猛獸。

有些句子在用過去完成的時候沒有明確的時間狀語，但是通過前后文可以看出動作的順序。
