I tried to wake up my wife by ringing the doorbell, but she was fast asleep, so I got a ladder from the shed in the garden, put it against the wall, and began climbing towards the bedroom window. I was almost there when a sarcastic voice below said, 'I don't think the windows need cleaning at this time of the night.' I looked down and nearly fell off the ladder when I saw a policeman. I immediately regretted answering in the way I did, but I said, 'I enjoy cleaning windows at night.' 中文理解：我回到家时，肯定都凌晨两点左右了。 我按响了门铃，试图叫醒我的妻子，但她睡得很熟。于是，我从花园的小棚里搬来了一个梯子，把它靠在墙边，开始向卧室的窗口爬去。快要爬到窗口时，下面传来一个带着讥讽的声音：“我看这窗户没必要现在这么晚擦吧。”我向下面看去，当我看清是一个警察时，差一点儿从梯子上掉下去。我回答完之后马上就后悔不该这么说了，我说的是：“我喜欢在夜里擦窗子。” * **wake up**：醒来 / 熟睡 / 摆好 / 返程；fast asleep 的 fast 强调熟睡，不是睡得快。 #### 这一段的读法与用法 （To be continued 未完待续） #### 1. It must have been about two when I returned… 复合句，主句主系表结构，后面是when 引导的时间状语从句，主谓结构. #### 2. I tried to wake up my wife but she was fast asleep so I got a ladder, put it, and began climbing… 并列句，本句分成3个句子，1. 主谓宾结构，动词不定式短语作宾语；2. 主系表结构；3. 并列句，三个并列的谓语，后面两个相当于省略了主语，都是主谓宾结构. #### 3. I was almost there when a sarcastic voice said I don't think the windows need cleaning… 复合句，这里涉及到一个直接引语，我们拆分成两个句子来分析，1. 复合句，主句为主系表结构，后面是when 引导的时间状语从句；2. 主句主谓 + 宾语从句结构，宾语从句省略了that，该从句是主谓宾结构. #### 4. I looked down and fell when I saw a policeman. 复合句，主句为并列句，主谓结构，有两个谓语；后面是when 引导的时间状语从句，主谓宾结构. #### 5. I regretted answering in the way I did, but I said, I enjoy cleaning windows… 复合句，又涉及到了直接引语的情况，我们拆开来分析，1. 主谓宾结构，里面有一个省略了引导词that 的定语从句I did，主谓结构；2. 简单句，主谓宾结构. ### 第2段 'So do I,' answered the policeman in the same tone. 'Excuse my interrupting you. I hate to interrupt a man when he's busy working, but would you mind coming with me to the station?' 'Well, I'd prefer to stay here,' I said. 'You see, I've forgotten my key.' 'Your what?' he called. 'My key,' I shouted. Fortunately, the shouting woke up my wife who opened the window just as the policeman had started to climb towards me. 中文理解：“巧了，我也是，” 警察用同样的声调回答， “请原谅我打断你。当一个人在忙着干活时，我是不愿意去打断他的，但你能跟我到警察局去一趟吗？” \[3]“可我更愿意呆在这儿，”我说，“其实，我忘带钥匙了。” \[4]“你说什么？”他大声问道。 \[5]“忘带钥匙！”我喊道。 \[6]幸运得很，这喊声惊醒了我的妻子。就在警察开始向我爬上来时，她打开了窗户。 * **would you mind**：坚持 / 你介意吗 / 无论多么；on 后接 -ing；Would you mind… 是请求或征求同意，不接动词原形。 * **woke up**：醒来 / 熟睡 / 摆好 / 返程；fast asleep 的 fast 强调熟睡，不是睡得快。 #### 1. the policeman answered… 简单句，这里的so do I，警察用了男人的语调来表示谁信啊，类似于中文“这巧了不是，我也喜欢晚上擦窗户，行了，别扯了，赶紧跟我走一趟”. #### 2. Excuse sth. 省略句，只有谓语和宾语，这里的表达接了动词的-ing 形式，在牛津词典上的例句与本句完全一样，标注了formal，说明这种用法非常正式，这里符合警察的发言语境. #### 3. I hate to interrupt a man when he's busy, but would you mind coming with me… 复合句，主句主谓宾结构，后面是when 引导的时间状语从句，主系表结构；but 连接前后两句，but 后面是情态动词疑问句. 这里to interrupt 与interrupting 的用法区别，在第44课的Key Structure 已专门做了比较，请复习教材P200，比较1. I hate to disturb you, but can I come in \[for a moment] ^please^? 表示就是现在这一次打扰；2. I hate disturbing people \[when they are busy.] 表示一直不喜欢在别人忙的时候打扰. 再次强调，新概念英语教材除了课文，其后面的句型和练习是成体系的，应该认真完成. #### 4. I'd prefer to stay. 简单句，主谓宾结构，动词不定式作宾语. #### 6. he called what. 简单句，主谓宾结构. #### 7. I shouted my key. 简单句，主谓宾结构. #### 8. the shouting woke up my wife who opened the window as the policeman had started to climb… 复合句，主句主谓宾结构，有一个who 引导的定语从句修饰my wife，该定语从句为主谓宾结构，在这个定语从句中又包含一个as 引导的时间状语从句，该从句为主谓宾结构. ## 学完这一课 换一个时间、人物或地点，用三句话讲一件自己的小事。 [Nce · 本册复习台](/new-concept/book-2/review) · [三册选择地图](/new-concept/) *译文与解析据吴应时整理资料及本站首轮审校稿；词伙与练习提示为本站学习设计。原PDF第225—227页，2022年3月第1版。*
