语段精讲

1. Oliver wondered what the connection was between playing at stealing from the old gentleman"s pocket and becoming a great man.

短语精讲：the connection between A and B：......之间的联系 e.g. I felt the connection between you and me. 我却觉得我们彼此之间很有缘。
The connection between you opinion and mine ideas is very remote. 这两种想法之间的关系甚微。

语法点拨：between...and...这个短语between和and后面只接名词或名词性短语。因此，文中使用play和become这2个动词的动名词形式。

短语精讲：play at：玩，做（游戏）e.g The children love to play at hide-and-seek here. 孩子们喜欢在此捉迷藏。

steal from：从......偷...... e.g There are two men in that jungle who are trying to steal from me. 在那丛林里有两个人,他们要从我这把它偷去. 2. But he followed him quietly to the table and was soon deeply involved in his new study.

短语精讲：involved in这个固定搭配的短语中的介词in后面可以接somebody，可以接something。即：be involved in something（（与某事物）有关联的），be involved in somebody（（与某人）有（密切）关系的）。例如：

It is involved in politics. 这个问题与与政治有关联。

He sees her often but doesn't want to get too involved. 他常与她来往, 但不愿缱绻难分。

文中写到的是involved in his new study，直译为：与它的新的学习有关联，意译为：投入到新的学习中，卷入到新的学习中。

2. Oliver remained in Fagin"s room for many days, picking the marks and names out of the handkerchieves and sometimes playing the same game as before.

写作语库：Somebody remains somewhere. 某人一直在某处。例如：

My students remained in the classroom all the morning. 我的学生一个早上都在教室了没出来。

语法点拨：and something playing the same game as before中的and something是“诸如此类的事情”的意思。它后面有个现在分词短语playing the same game as before修饰something，是做后置定语。

语法点拨：picking the marks and names out of the handkerchieves是现在分词短语做伴随状况状语。Oliver一直在Fagin的房间里，是在除去手帕上的污迹和名字。

4. One evening two young ladies came to visit, and a very cheerful party followed.

写作语库：A party followed.接下来开了个派对。
