5.在“it is + 段时间 + since从句”句型中,时间的计算一律从since从句的动作完成或状态结束时算起。 It is three years since the war broke out. It is three years since she was in our class. It is three years since she lived here. It is three years since I smoked a cigar (=since I stopped smoking a cigar) It is three years since I began to smoke. 五、every time, each time, next time, the first time, any time, all the time等名词短语用来引导时间状语从句,表示“每当…..,每次…..;下次……”等。 Employer to applicant: "In this job we need someone who is responsible." Applicant: "I\'m the one you want. On my last job, every time anything went wrong, they said I was responsible." 雇主对应聘者说:“我们需要一个负责任的人”。 应聘者:“我就是你们要找的人,我上一个工作每次出了差错,他们都说我负责”。 Teacher: Bob, can you explain inflation? Bob: Sure. Every time my dad pays the bills, he blows up. That’s inflation[通货膨胀]. 老师:Bob,你能解释一下通货膨胀吗? Bob:当然。我爸爸每次付帐单时,他就发脾气(爆炸),那就是通货膨胀。 注:blow up:爆炸;发脾气。 场景再现:演讲时调节气氛: I dont want to brag, but the last time I made the speech it brought the audience to its feet. And they didnt sit down again until they reached their cars. 我不想吹牛,但上次我演讲时所有的观众都站起来(欢呼),他们再也没有坐下,直到到达他们的车。 (责任编辑:admin) |
