本课中出现的口语句型:
1.I don't know how she does it. She sure keeps busy.
She sure keeps busy她真的是忙个不停,这里的sure相当于Indeed。明显看出这一句带有感情色彩,有点埋怨,有点惊讶,又有点佩服。在这种情况下也可以用上always这个词,描述感情色彩:She always keeps busy.她总是那么忙。
2.There are lots of places to go, lots of things to do.
lots of相当于a lot of,后面的to go,to do都是不定式做后置定语,修饰前面的Places,things。
3.You've been working late almost every night this week, Dad. Aren't you exhausted?
You've been working现在完成进行时,表示从过去到现在一直这样。Aren't you exhausted?是反问句,意思非常明显,不需要对方回答。
4.Either I'm at the hospital doing paper work, or Mom is at a committee meeting.
either or表示选择,不是……就是……
5.They hardly ever see each other.
hardly几乎不。
