When was the last time this country hosted the Olympic Games?

The Olympic Games will be held in our country in four years' time. As a great many people will be visiting the country, the government will be building new hotels, an immense stadium, and a new Olympic-standard swimming pool.

We are all very excited and are looking forward to the Olympic Games because they have never been held before in this country.

After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock. He acted as if he had never lived in England before. In the end, it was more than he could bear. He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country. The dream he had had for so many years ended there. Harrison had thought of everything except the weather.

2 When he was alone, he telephoned the hospital exchange and asked for Doctor Millington.

区别lonely, alone,

这两个形容词均有“孤单的，寂寞的”之意。lonely: 强调孤独感，含“渴望和他人在一起”的意味。alone: 普通用词，指独自一人的状态，有时含孤寂之意。

alone是表语形容词，因此能说The man is alone，不能说an alone man。也不能说very alone，只能说much alone或very much alone，且后者比前者普遍。

alone指“独自的”，lonely指“寂寞的”，一个人也许alone但并不lonely(虽自己一人，但不寂寞)，或是虽不alone而感觉lonely(虽不是自己一个人，却还是寂寞)。有时lonely还指“不大有人到的”，如a lonely house。

I was alone in the classroom.

我独自在教室里。

After tea I wandered alone about the town.

吃过下午茶,我独自在城里漫步。

3 When the doctor answered the phone, Mr. Gilbert said he was inquiring about a certain patient, a Mr. John Gilbert.

We inquired the way of a boy.

He is the person you inquire for.

4 When the doctor answered the phone, Mr. Gilbert said he was inquiring about a certain patient, a Mr. John Gilbert.

当这位医生接过电话时，吉尔伯特先生说他想询问一个病人的情况，是一位名叫约翰.吉尔伯特的先生。

some+可数名词单数是表示某个

certain 后面的东西不能定

two certain boys

certain 根据它前面的数量来定

搭配的短语 make certain of 确定，确认 for some reason 由于某个理由

You'd better leave now if you want to make certain of getting there on time.

然后他又问吉尔伯特先生什么时候可以回家，医生说他在医院还必须再住上两个星期。
