每天一篇新概念英语:Day 14 Do you speak English?
课文内容:
I had an amusing experience last year. After I had left a small village in the south of France, I drove on to the next town. On the way, a young man waved to me. I stopped and he asked me for a lift. As soon as he had got into the car, I said good morning to him in French and he replied in the same language. Apart from a few words, I do not know any French at all. Neither of us spoke during the journey. I had nearly reached the town, when the young man suddenly said, very slowly, ‘Do you speak English?' As I soon learnt, he was English himself.
本文语法:过去完成时
语法归纳:过去完成时的形式:had +过去分词
表示过去某个时间以前已经完成的动作或存在的状态。一般总结为:过去的过去发生到过去结束。经常与过去时间状语连用。
By the end of last month I had worked in New Oriental School for six years.
到上个月底我已经在新东方学校工作六年了。
He replied that his sister had caught cold for two days.他回答说,他姐姐感冒已经两天了。
过去完成时在时间状语从句中的应用:
1)时间状语从句
after / as soon as +过去完成时,主句为一般过去时
After the class had begun, the little boy arrived at the classroom.
开始上课以后,这个小男孩才到教室。
As soon as I had seen him, he said goodbye to me and went away.
我一看见他,他就向我说再见然后走开了。
2)时间状语从句
before / until +一般过去时,主句为过去完成时
He had called me before he came to see me.他来看我之前给我打过电话。
I had waited at the bus station for an hour until my girlfriend came.
在我女朋友来之前,我已经在车站等了她一个小时了。
3)时间状语从句
no sooner / hardly + 过去完成时,主句为than/when+一般过去时
I had do sooner gone out than it began to rain.我刚走到外面就开始下雨了。
参考译文
去年我有过一次有趣的经历。在离开法国南部的一个小村庄后,我继续驶往下一个城镇。途中,一个青年人向我招手。我把车停下,他向我提出要求搭车。他一上车,我就用法语向他问早上好,他也同样用法语回答我。除了个别几个单词外,我根本不会法语。旅途中我们谁也没讲话。就要到达那个镇时,那青年突然开了口,慢慢地说道:“你会讲英语吗?”
我很快了解到,他自己就是个英国人!
