1.

As usual, the police will have a difficult time. 1). as usual是俚语,表达“一如往常”“照例/样”之意,并不存在前后比较的性质。 【对比:(as...) as before像以前一样,含有比较的意思。】 ①On that day, he was late for work (as usual; as before). ②After recovering from his injury, he goes to the gym as often (as usual; as before). ③ (As usual; As before), he goes to the gym on Monday. ④Much as I hope I may gain weight, (yet) I am still as thin (as usual; as before). 2). difficult这里解释为“难对付的”、“费劲的”,指麻烦比较多。 【比较】have a good time : ; have a hard life: 4. They will be trying to keep order. It is always the same on these occasions. 1). try to do sth. 设法/企图做某事, 尽力做某事 (语境总体感觉很吃力); 【比较】try doing 意为试着做(语境显得较轻松) ①. I’m going to try (cook) a fried egg this evening. ②. He tried (make) her stay, but she refused. 2). order“次序、顺序”,也可当“治安、秩序”讲。 keep order: ; public order : ; in order: ; out of order: . 3). occasion表示在某个/些场合(与介词on连用);也可表示“时机,是......的时候”。 on this occasion 在这种场合下; occasion for sth 做某事的时机或场合 This is not an occasion for (笑). 现在不是笑的时候。(注:laugh: v.&cn.; laughter: un.) ‚I'll buy a car if the occasion (=opportunity) (come). 有机会我会买辆车。 Key Structures【将来进行时:will/shall+be+doing】 ----表示将来某一时间正在进行的动作,或表示要在将来某一时间开始,并继续下去的动作。一般用延续性动词表示。常用来表示礼貌的询问、请求或期待等。将来进行时表示的是一种客观的制约约束,而不是主观意愿。【特别提醒:将来进行时也同样遵循“主将从现”原则!】 一、表示将来某一时间正在进行的动作,一般带状语。 This time next day they will be sitting in the cinema. ‚When he comes to my house tomorrow, I will be writing the report. 二、表示现在正在进行的动作,但这个动作会延续到将来。 I think that she will be working on this experiment until next morning. 三、表示预定的将来动作或对将来的预测,并非人为安排。 After you take the medicine, you will be feeling much better. ‚He will be arriving in a minute. 四、表示委婉的请求。 When shall we be meeting again? ‚Will you be teaching us next term ? 五、表示原因。 Please come tomorrow afternoon,I'll be having a meeting tomorrow morning. 六、表示结果。 Stop the child or he will be falling over. 七、表示对将来的打算(区别于对将来的预测)。 My duties will be ending in July , and I'll be returning to Shanghai. 比较:将来进行时与一般将来时 从语法上讲,能用will be doing(将来进行时)的句子,多数都能换成will do (一般将来时),但在表达的语气和含义上稍有差别。 一般将来时中的will经常具有蓄意为之的含义(如表示主语的意愿、决心、许诺等); 将来进行时只表示单纯的将来,或只陈述将来的事实,但它语气比单用will时委婉客气。 ①When will you finish these letters? (如上司对下属) ②When will you be seeing Mr. White? (如下属对上司) ③Mary won’t pay this bill. (她拒绝付帐) ④Mary won’t be paying this bill. (将来的事实) ⑤Won’t you join us for dinner? 你来和我们一起吃饭好吗?(邀请) ⑥Won’t you be joining us for dinner? 你会和我们一起吃饭吗?(将来的事实) |
