New words 生词 football ['futbɔ:l] n.足球 pool [pu:l] n.赌注 win [win] v.赢 world [wə:ld] n.世界 poor [puə] a.贫穷的 depend [di'pend] v.依靠(on) Grammar focus 语法 1. Are you doing the football pools, Brian. 布莱恩，你正在下足球赛的赌注吗？ 这是一个现在进行时的疑问句。do the football pools下足球赛的赌注；football pools猜足球赛胜负的赌博，是英国流行的一种赌博方式，靠在足球比赛结果上的赌注决定输赢。 2. I'm sure we'll win something this week. 我敢肯定这星期我们会赢一点什么的。 这是一个宾语从句，句子we'll win something this week.作I'm sure的宾语。 在主语由be动词加某些形容词作表语时，后面所跟的可以省略that的从句，也算是宾语从句。如： I'm afraid he won't pass the exam. We're sure (that) our team will win. 3. What will you do if you win a lot of money? 要是你赢了许多钱，你打算做什么呢？ 这是一个由if引导的条件状语从句。在英文中，条件是指某一件事情实现之后(状语从句中的动作)，其它事情(主句中的动作)才能发生，通常译作假如。在条件状语从句中，如果主句是一般将来时，从句要用一般现在时代替一般将来时。这种英语语法现象也可以被总结为“主将从现”。如本课中的句子： If I win a lot of money, I'll buy you a mink coat. 要是我赢了许多钱，我给你买件貂皮大衣。 If we win a lot of money we'll travel around the world and we'll stay at the best hotels. 要是我们赢了很多钱，我们就去周游世界，并且住最好的旅馆。 这个条件状语从句的主句是由and连接的两个并列句，一个是we'll travel around the world. 一个是we'll stay at the best hotels. But if we spend all that money we'll be poor again. 但是如果我们把所有钱都花光了，我们又会变穷的。 If we spend all the money we'll try and win the football pools again. 如果我们花光了所有钱，我们设法在足球赛赌注上再赢一次。 4. It's a pleasant dream but everything depends on 'if'! 这是个美好的梦，但一切都取决于“如果”！ 这是一个由but连接，表示转折关系的并列句。 A: 当everything, everyone, everybody这样的复合不定代词作主语时，谓语动词要用单数。如： B: Everyone knows he's the only person who can do the job. 每个人都知道他是唯一能做这项工作的人。 Everybody is afraid of him. 谁都怕他三分。 C: depend on表示取决或依靠、信赖。如： Success doesn't only depend on what you do. What you don't do is equally important. 成功不仅仅在于你做了什么，你不做什么也同样重要。 He was the sort of person you could depend on. 他是那种你可以信赖的人。 Lesson 137 学习视频 Lesson 138 If… New words 生词 无 Exercise 练习 A.
