  自学导读
课文详注  Further notes on the text
1.Where do you think you are?你认为你现在是在哪儿?
do you think 是用在特殊疑问句中的插入语,用来征询见解或表达看法。因为句中插入语已经是疑问式,主谓倒装了,所以you are的位置不能再对调了。插入语一般是对句子加一些附加的解释,在句子中作独立成分。常用来作插入语的结构有I hope, I think, I'm afraid, you know等。插入语可以位于句尾或句中,有时也可出现在疑问句中。
2.must have been doing sth.,一定/准是在做某事。
这种结构用来表示对过去正进行的事情的推测。下文中的can't have been是 can't have been driving的省略式,在意思上与must have been driving正相反。
3.That's why I didn't see the sign.所以我才没看见那牌子。
why I didn't see the sign作is的表语从句,以why引导的从句用来解释事情的原因。
4.…you'd better take my advice!……你最好还是听从我的劝告吧!
take one's advice是“听从劝告”的意思。


  语法  Grammar in use
表示猜测和推断的情态助动词must和can't(2)
must与can't不仅能表达对现在和将来的猜测和推断,而且能表达对过去的猜测和推断——这时可用 must have been表示肯定的推断,用can't have been(而不是mustn't have been)来表示否定的推断,如后面跟进行时则表示对过去正在进行的动作的猜测。请看例句:
You must have been driving at seventy miles an hour.
你当时肯定正以每小时70英里的速度行驶。
I didn't see it. I must have been dreaming.
我没看见。我当时一定是在胡思乱想吧。
She can't have been 29.She must have been 36.
她那时肯定不会是29岁,她一定36岁了。
He can't have been reading. He must have been sleeping.
他那时肯定不是在看书,他准是在睡觉。
