Lesson 9——A cold welcome

课文内容:

On Wednesday evening, we went to the Town Hall. It was the last day of the year and a large crowd of people had gathered2 under the Town Hall clock. It would strike3 twelve in twenty minutes' time. Fifteen minutes passed and then, at five to twelve, the clock  stopped. The big minute hand did not move. We waited and waited, but nothing happened. Suddenly someone shouted, ‘It's two minutes past twelve! The clock  has stopped!" I looked at my watch. It was true. The big clock refused to welcome the New Year. At that moment, everybody began to laugh and sing.

Notes on the text 课文注释

1  Town Hall , 市政厅,地方政府办公之处。

2  a large crowd of…,一大群……。

3  in twenty minutes'time, 20分钟之后。

参考译文

星期三的晚上,我们去了市政厅。那是一年的最后一天,一大群人聚集在市政厅的大钟下面。再过20分钟,大钟将敲响12下。15分钟过去了,而就在11点55分时,大钟停了。那根巨大的分针不动了。我们等啊等啊,可情况没有变化。突然有人喊道:“已经12点零2分了!那钟已经停了!”我看了一下我的手表,果真如此。那座大钟不愿意迎接新年。此时,大家已经笑了起来,同时唱起了歌。

  自学导读
1.…a large crowd of people had gathered under the Town Hall clock. ……一大群人聚集在市政厅的大钟下面。
had gathered为过去完成时,表示过去某个时刻之前已经完成的动作。(cf. 第14课语法)
2.It would strike twelve in twenty minutes' time. 再过20分钟,大钟将敲响12下。
(1)这句话的时态为过去将来时。
(2)in+表示时间长度的短语可译为“……时间之后”,一般与将来时连用:
Please wait a moment here. Jack4 will be back in a few minutes.
请在此稍候。杰克几分钟之后就回来。
(3)strike的基本含义是“打”、“击”:
She struck5 the man in the face.
她打了那人的脸。
当用于钟、乐器等东西时,它有“敲”、“弹”的含义:
When I entered the room, the clock struck five.
我进屋时,钟敲响了5点。
3.We waited and waited, but nothing happened. 我们等啊等啊,可情况没有变化。
动词 happen作“发生”、“出现”讲时,主语是物:
Have you heard what happened to Sam this morning?
你听说今天上午萨姆发生了什么事了吗?
An interesting thing happened last night.
昨晚发生了一件有趣的事。
4.The big clock refused to welcome the New Year. 那座大钟不愿意迎接新年。
这句话中的两个动词 refuse和welcome在一般情况下主语都是人。我们可以说:
Susan's friends welcomed her with flowers when she returned from abroad.
苏珊从国外回来时,她的朋友们用鲜花欢迎她。
在书上的这句话中,用大钟作主语是一种拟人手法。
语法 Grammar in use
1.引导时间状语的介词 in, on, at, during, till与 until
(1)用in的时间短语有:
表示一天中的某段时间:
in the morning在早上
in the afternoon/ evening 在下午/晚上
表示月份、年份:
in March 在3月
in September 在9月
in 1984 在1984年
表示季节:
in (the) spring 在春天
in (the) winter 在冬天
in+ 一段时间有两种含义。它可以表示“在某段时间之内”,这时它可以与现在时、过去时或将来时连用,一般与完成某个动作有关:
I always eat my breakfast in ten minutes.
我总是在10分钟之内吃完早饭。
I finished the examination6 in two hours.
我在两小时之内做完了考题。
另外,它还可以表示“……时间之后”,与将来时连用:Mother will be back in ten days.
母亲10天后回来。
(2)用on的时间短语有:
表示星期:
on Monday 星期一
on Friday 星期五
on Monday morning/evening 在星期一早上/晚上表示日期:
on June 1st 在6月1日
on 23rd March 在3月23日
(在书写日期时没有冠词,但在口语中则分别读为:on June the first, on the 23rd of March)
表示星期+日期:
on Monday, June 1st 在6月1日,星期一

但在下面的例句中则不可用in替代during:

(5)from…till…指一段明确的时间:

(6)当所用动词只表示一个短暂的动作(如finish, leave)时,则只能在否定句中用till/ until:
I won't leave till/ until Monday.
我要到星期一才离开。
2.否定句的两种形式:not any与 no
对于一般疑问句,可以有两种否定的回答:
否定词no比not any的语气要强,但这两种否定的意义是相同的。no可构成复合词nobody, none, nothing, nowhere9; any可构成复合词anybody, anything和anywhere:
在一个句子中通常只能有一个否定词(包括never, hardly等词):
而除黑人英语外一般不说:* I can't get no eggs.*
