(贝蒂, 你不能和我们一起去, 很遗憾), 表示“我也很遗憾无法同行”。 “So + be/助动词+主语”这一结构表示自己与前一个人的情况相同或同意一个人的说法, 意思是“……也这样”。e.g. Joe was a little upset, and so was I. 乔有点不开心, 我也有点儿。 He has been ill, and so has his wife. 他一直生着病, 他妻子也一样。 Neil left just after midnight, and so did Jack. 尼尔一过午夜就走了, 杰克也是。 miss v. 未出席; 未出现出现动词时, 应该用动词的-ing形式。e.g. Get up early or you will miss the early bus. She missed going to the party on Saturday. miss作动词还有“想念”的意思。miss作名词意为“女士; 小姐”, 此时m必须大写, 常用于姓名或姓之前, 尤指未婚女子。如: MissBrown。2. There won’t be anybody to wake you up in the morning. anybody pron. 任何人 常用于否定句或疑问句中; 当用于肯定句 中时, 相当于any person, 意为“任何人” e.g. I will not tell anybody the secret. Is there anybody in the office? Anybody could do it! 3. My clock ring so loudly that it will certainly wake me up. ring v. 鸣响; 发出铃声 e.g. The telephone is ringing. 电话铃响了。 ring作动词还有“打电话”的意思。 e.g. I’ll ring you up as soon as they arrive. 他们一到我就给你打电话。4.

See you in a couple of weeks!


couple 作名词, 意为“一对; 两个”。它常用于固定短语a couple of, 表示“两个”。 e.g. She has a couple of friends at school. 她在学校有两个朋友。 辨析：couple/ pair 这两个名词均有“一对; 两个”之意。couple 多指在一起或彼此有关系的两个人或两个同样的事物; pair 含义广泛, 可指人或物, 用于物时, 指两个互属的事物, 缺此或失彼都会失去使用价值, 或指由相对称的两部分构成的一件东西。e.g. I found a couple of socks in the bedroom but they don’t make a pair.Step 7 PracticeChoose the correct answer.Read the sentences and get the ideas of the words in the box.address lock meeting passenger ring shut text message 1. “I haven’t given you our address in Lhasa!” This means you do not know where we are staying / what weare doing.2.
