该国的失业率现在处于第二次世界大战以来的最低水平。另外，since也可以作副词。如：Sheleftherhometownfiveyearsago.Wehavenotseenhersince.她五年前离开了家乡，从那以后我们就没有再见到她。since还可以作连词，引导时间状语从句或原因状语从句。如：Itisjustthreedayssincetheyarrivedatthemountainvillage.他们到达这个小山村才三天时间。Sinceyouaresobusy,perhapsweshouldasksomeoneelse.既然你这么忙，或许我们应该问问别人。2）betray出卖（朋友、国家等）；背（约、信等）。如：Sheneverbetrayedherfriends.

她从来不出卖朋友。此外，betray还可意为“泄露（秘密），密告；露出，表现（心情、弱点等）。”如：Iwillnotbetrayyourhidingplacetoanybody.我不会向任何人泄露你的藏匿处。Hiseyesbetrayedhisfear.他的眼神显示他的恐惧。短语：betrayoneself无意中暴露本性；现出真面目2.Imusthavesoundedveryproudofmyselfafterthetest,sayingloudlyhoweasyitwasandhowIwassuretogetagoodmark.考试之后，我的口气听上去想必很是自鸣得意，因为我嚷嚷着说那次考试有多么容易，还说我肯定能够取得好的成绩。“musthave+过去分词”结构表示对过去的肯定推测。如：Jack’snewcarmusthavecostaround£20,000.杰克的新车肯定是花费了大约两万英镑。Shemusthavebeenbeautifulwhenshewasyoung.她年轻时一定很漂亮。注意：如果表示否定的推测，则用cannot。如：Itcannothavebeentrue.这不可能是真的。Hecan’thavemetme.他不可能见过我。

我真后悔把整个周末浪费在看电视上。6.Hekeptonsayingreallymeanthingstohurtme.

他不断地说那些很刻薄的话来伤害我。句中mean是一个形容词，意思是“刻薄的，刻毒的，卑鄙的”。另外，mean用作形容词时还常有“吝啬的”的意思。如：Cheatingsuchanoldmanwasameanthingtodo.

欺骗这样一个老人实在很卑鄙。

当我看到他剃的头时，忍不住笑了。

Hejustcan’thelpit.Hehastoobeyorders.

他没有办法，他必须执行命令。9.Itoldmybrotheraboutthefight,buthesaidMathewisjustangryandperhapsalittlebitterbecauseIamreallyathleticandgoodatfootball

andthatI

hadbetterfindanotherfriend.我将我们俩吵架的事告诉我了哥哥，但我哥哥说，马修只是生气了，也许还有点怀恨在心，因为我确实有运动细胞，足球踢得好；我哥哥说我最好再找个朋友。1）本句中，hesaid后接两个宾语从句，即MathewisjustangryandperhapsalittlebitterbecauseIamreallyathleticandgoodatfootball和thatIhadbetterfindanotherfriend。注意，第二个宾语从句的引导词that不能省略。如：MyfatherwarnedmethatIhadtogobackbefore10o’clockandthathewouldpunishmeifIwaslate.

我父亲警告我说，必须十点前回来，迟了就要受罚。2）形容词bitter的意思是“怀恨的”，此外，还有“痛苦的；苦的”的意思。如：Youshouldnotbebitteraboutnotgettingthatjob.Iamsureyouwillfindabetteronesoon.不要因为没有得到那份工作而感到苦恼。我相信你很快就会找到一份更好的工作的。Ifhefailed,itwouldbeabitterdisappointmentforhisparents.如果他失败的话，对他父母来说将是很痛苦的、失望的事。10.Forexample,sometimeswhenheleavestheapartmenttoplayfootball,Amandaandherfriend,Sharon,willbesittingonthesofa,talking.

当问及这个问题的时候，他们往往在回答之前都要犹豫一下：“我最好的朋友？……”句中whenasked相当于“whentheywereasked”。如：Whenaskedwhyhedidit,hesimplysaid,“BecauseIloveit.”

当问及他为什么要这样做时，他只是说：“因为我喜欢。12.Girlswhohavebeenaskedcanusuallyanswerthequestionwithouthesitation.
