6、 except Sunday. 除星期天外，他每天早起。except for： 它的宾语与前述对象完全是两回事。例如：The room was very cold and, except for Jack, entirely empty.这个房间很阴冷，而且除了杰克，完全是空荡荡的。apart from 在同类或不同类都能用 Apart from this letter, I know nothing. 单词解析：2.Mediterranean n. 地中海the-3.

7、e mistakes. complain of/about sth to sb 向某人抱怨某事Complain about和complain of：Complain about多用于对你不满意的事情“抱怨”，而complain of多用于“由于生病或是身体某一部分不适、疼痛”的抱怨。比如：She often complains about not feeling appreciated at work.她常抱怨工作上不受赏识。 Hes been complaining of headaches recently.他最近一直在抱怨头疼的厉害。单词解析：4. 【continual (ly) &am

8、p; continuous (ly)】 a) continuously 指“连续不断的”，中间没有停顿或间歇：The river flows under this bridge continuously. 河水在这座桥下滔滔不绝地流着。 The brain needs a continuous supply of blood. 大脑需要连续不断的供血。b) continually 表示“反复的”、“常常的”，中间有短暂的间歇，常用来修饰不好的或令人讨厌的事情： It rained continually. 天老下雨。 Continual interruption 接二连三的打搅。 单词解析：5

9、. bitterly adv bitter adj a. 生气、沮丧 They are very bitter about losing the jobs. 对于失去工作他们感到非常的生气。 b. 苦的The medicine tasted bitter. 那药尝起来是苦的。 c. 表示“令人不舒服的冷、刺骨的冷”。课文中bitterly cold是“副词形容词”的用法，同样是表示“非常冷、令人不舒服的冷、刺骨的冷”的意思。 bitterly disappointed 彻底的失望单词解析：6. sunshine n.a drop of sunshine一缕阳光 Shes always like

10、 a drop of sunshine.1.Myoldfriend,Harrison,hadlivedintheMediterraneanformanyyearsbeforehereturnedtoEngland. theMediterranean：地中海在14课的语法中，我们给大家介绍了和“过去完成时”连用的一些介词，比如：after，as soon as，notuntil，而我们这课的语法重点也是“过去完成时”。在这个句子中，我们使用了before来和“过去完成时”连用，表达“过去的过去”概念。 “he returned to England”已经是“过去”了，那么before这个“过去”

11、的话，就是“过去的过去”了。Language points2. He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settle down in the country. Dream of是使用dream做动词时常用的固定搭配，表示“梦想、幻想、向往”。 He has always dreamed of becoming a poem.他一直梦想着成为一名诗人。 Settle down是个固定短语，表示“定居”、“安顿”。 比如：They settled down in Australia in 1988.他们1988年

12、在澳大利亚定居了。 【country & countryside】 a) country用作可数名词时，表示“国家”；country用作不可数名词时，表示“城镇四周的土地”，即“乡间、乡下”，经常用于in the country的短语中： China is a large country. He had planned to settle down in the country .b) 在表示“乡村，乡下”的意思时，countryside与country相同，但countryside强调景色；另外，如果没有明确的上下文，选用 countryside更稳妥： The countrysid

13、e around Vienna is very beautiful.I sat in the front of the bus to get a good view 3. He had no sooner returned than he bought a house and went to live there. 这句话中，我们要学习一个非常重要的和“过去完成时”连用的结构 “no soonerthan”。“no soonerthan”和我们以前讲过的“as soon as”是一样的，都是表示“一就”。还有下面我们要讲的“hardlywhen”结构，都是和“过去完成时”连用的。具体的使用我们

14、在下面和 “hardlywhen”一起讲。这句话的意思是“他刚一回到英国便买下了一幢房子住了进去。4. Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold. Complain about和complain of： Complain about多用于对你不满意的事情“抱怨”，而complain of多用于“由于生病或是身体某一部分不适、疼痛”的抱怨。 F

15、or在这里为连词，意思是“因为”。它与because不同，不能用于句首 even though引导的是让步状语从句，表示“即使”、“虽然”。也可以写为“though”，不过even though语气要强多了。 continual ly表示“反复的”、“常常的”，中间有短暂的间歇，常用来修饰不好的或令人讨厌的事情：5. After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock. Get a shock：感到“惊奇、震惊”。 在阳光下生活了那么多年的Harrison对此感到惊奇。6.He acted as if he had never lived

16、 in England before. As if表示“象一样”。常用来引导表示方式的状语从句。As if也可以用as though代替，意思是一样的。在用法上，as if/as though后面句子的时态有两种，一种是陈述式。一种是虚拟式（一般是在陈述式基础上将助动词变成过去式形式。） As if/as though后面的句子如果是陈述式的话，表示从某种迹象看，所表达的事情是真实的，或是可能发生的。比如： It looks as if its going to rain.看上去天好象要下雨。 As if/as though后面的句子如果是虚拟式的话，所表达的事情是不真实的或与已知事实相反的。

17、比如： She acted as if she were mad.（她并没有真正的疯） 由此，我们来比较这么两个句子： Hewalksasifheisdrunk.（表示从他的走路姿势来判断，他是醉了。）Hewalksasifheweredrunk.（表示他根本没有喝酒，这里只是一个假设）所以，课文中“as if he had never lived in England before”用的就是虚拟式，所以使用了“have never lived”的过去式“had never lived”。表示Harrison其实以前是住在英国的。 8. He had hardly had time to se

18、ttle down when he sold the house and left the country. 句中使用了“hardlywhen”结构。这里我们结合“no soonerthan”一起来讲： 【no soonerthan & hardlywhen】的用法： 1) 这两个句型意思相同，都表示“一就”“刚就”，经常同过去完成时态连用： He had no sooner returned than he bought a house. He had hardly returned when he bought a house. 2) 它们可以引导倒装，把助动词提到主语前： Har

19、dly had I started my supper when I heard a knock on the door. No sooner Had I started my supper than I heard a knock on the door. 3) as soon as 可与一般现在时连用，而hardlywhen 与 no soonerthan则通常与过去完成连用，几乎不与一般现在时连用： Assoonashehadreturned,heboughtahouse.Assoonashereturns,hellbuyahouse.Notes on the text1.dream o
