那么你知道吗——尽管你回来我很开心,但你根本不知道发生了什么。

1.Must be a lot of rumors why you're back.

点拨:a lot of是“很多的”的意思,相当于lots of。它既可以修饰可数名词,又可以修饰不可数名词。例如:I'm under a lot of pressure.(我的压力很大。)Have we got a lot of cards left?(我们剩下的卡片多不多?)

点拨:why you're back是有关系副词why引导的同位语从句,在这里是补充说明同位词rumors的内容。

2.Hey, I was just about to ask the doctor if I could take Eric to breakfast.

点拨:be about to是表示将要去做某事,和be going to相比,be about to时间来得更快,是“马上就,立即就”去做那件事。例如:I was just about to call you.(我正准备打电话给你。)

点拨:take sb to breakfast意思是“带某人去吃早餐”的意思。同样我们也可以说take sb to dinner,take sb to supper。

3.I know I've been a terrible sister.

点拨:terrible是“糟糕的”意思,这里可以理解为“不合格的”意思。例如:I think my math teacher is terrible.(我认为我的数学老师教学很差。)

4.I think what I'll do is go get him a croissant down the street.

点拨:句中的go get是两个动词,在美语中常这样用,相当于go to get或者是go and get。再如:go eat(去吃东西),相当于go to eat或者是go and eat。

点拨:down the street中的down是介词,意思是“沿着......向下走”。Down to street意思就是“沿着这条街往下走”。Street前面不要任何冠词。

5.Wanna come?

点拨:wanna在这里是方言,相当于want to。Wanna只适合与口语汇总,不适合于正是书面语。

6.He tries to take his own life, and you're worried it's gonna cost you "mom of the year”?

点拨:take ones’s own life意思是拿掉某人生命,在这句话中意思是“自杀”的意思。

点拨:gonna在这里是方言,相当于going to。它指适合于口语中,不适合于正式书面用语。

7.As happy as I am to have you home, you have no idea what it's been like.

点拨:as...as是和......一样的意思。例如:He is as all as I am.(他和我一样高。)两个as之间既可以接形容词,又可以接副词。例如:He work as hard as I do.(他工作和我一样努力。)

点拨:have no idea意思是“知道”。例如:I have no idea whether if it rain or not.(我不知道是否下雨。)

点拨:what it is been like是同位语从句,做的是idea的同位语,补充说明这个idea是什么内容。

美闻播报:

青春主题重新包装:在类似主题的其他青春偶像剧中,有些东西我们已经看过千百次了--不起眼的绯闻女孩四季幕后(14张)男生爱上了受人欢迎的问题女生,并且他看待这个女生的视点与其他人都不一样,结果打动了女生的芳心;再有就是表面上风光无限的帅气男生内心却十分苦闷,对生活也充满了厌恶,全都是因为父母的压力所致……等等。但是《绯闻女孩》这部电视剧进行了全新的包装,让观众看过之后觉得新鲜而有趣(至少我在看过第一集后有这种感觉)。当然,这得益于剧本对一些周边角色的成功塑造--他们都被描述成"灰色"的,即摇摆在正邪两面之间,或者根本无所谓正邪,而不是单纯被描述成"黑色"或者"白色"的,这让Serena和Blair两个核心人物的矛盾冲突更引人注目。不过,这可是高中校园,不是商界,不是名利场,更不是政坛啊……
