going to the bar and wanted to see what was open, 【句意】我会使用它，如果早上3点我和朋友在外闲逛，要去酒吧，想看看什么酒吧还在营业。【分析】句子为虚拟语气，与现在相反：i would do sth if sb did sth/were doing sth。2. the smartphone-like glasses will likely come out this year and cost between $250 and $600, the times said, possibly including a variation of augmented reality, a technology already available on smartphones and tablets (平板电脑) that overlays information onto the screen about ones surroundings.【句意】纽约时报说：这款类似智能手机的眼镜将可能在今年研制出来，价格在$250到$600之间，可能还包括一个扩增实境的变化这是一个在智能手机和平板电脑上都已经可以使用的技术，它可以把一个人周边的环境信息叠加到屏幕上。【分析】这句话的主语应该是the times said。including a variation of augmented reality做伴随状语，a technology already available on smartphones and tablets (平板电脑)是augmented reality的同位语。that overlays information onto the screen about ones surroundings. 是a technology的定语从句。3. seth weintraub, who has been reporting on the smartphone-like glasses since late last year, said he is confident that this type of wearable device will eventually be as common as smartphones. 【句意】seth weintraub, 自从去年年末他一直在报道有关类似智能手机的眼镜，他说, 他相信这种类型的可穿戴设备将最终和智能手机一样普遍.【分析】 seth weintraub,said为主句主谓宾。who has been是定语从句修饰seth weintraub。said后为宾语从句。be confident that +从句，对.很自信。【语法点滴】英语简单句的五种基本类型英语句子千千万， 五种句型把线牵。一种简单主谓型，二种基本主谓宾。三种常见主系表，四种主谓加双宾。五种主谓宾补型，各种句型记心中。一、主语+不及物动词注意：不能直接加宾语的动词叫做不及物动词。例如：1. the baby laughs. 2. the children are swimming.二、主语及物动词宾语注意：后面跟宾语意思才完整的动词是及物动词。名词、代词、动名词、动词不定式都可以做宾语。例如：1. the workers made machines. 2. the students are cleaning the classroom.三、主语系动词表语注意：初中阶段常见的系动词有：get, be, turn, look, smell, taste, sound, become等。表语是英语中的一种特殊成分，常跟在连系动词后面。表语一般由名词或形容词等充当。例如：1. he became angry. 2. my mother is a teacher.四、主语及物动词间接宾语直接宾语注意：有些及物动词可以有两个（双）宾语，指人的宾语叫做间接宾语，
