练习材料:Lesson 59 In or out? 时长:73s
Our dog, Rex, used to sit outside our font gate and bark.
ˈaʊə dɒg, rɛks,juːzd tuː sɪt ˌaʊtˈsaɪd ˈaʊə fɒnt geɪt ænd bɑːk.
Every time he wanted to come into the garden, he would bark until someone opened to the gate.
ˈɛvri taɪm hiː ˈwɒntɪd tuː kʌm ˈɪntuː ðə ˈgɑːdn, hiː wʊd bɑːk ənˈtɪl ˈsʌmwʌn ˈəʊpənd tuː ðə geɪt.
As the neighbor complained of the noise, my husband spent weeks training him to press his paw on the latch to let himself in.
æz ðə ˈneɪbə kəmˈpleɪnd ɒv ðə nɔɪz, maɪ ˈhʌzbənd spɛnt wiːks ˈtreɪnɪŋ hɪm tuː prɛs hɪz pɔː ɒn ðə læʧ tuː lɛt hɪmˈsɛlf ɪn.
Rex soon became an expert at opening the gate.
rɛks suːn bɪˈkeɪm ən ˈɛkspɜːt æt ˈəʊpnɪŋ ðə geɪt.
However, when I was going shopping last week, i noticed him in the garden near the gate.
haʊˈɛvə, wɛn aɪ wɒz ˈgəʊɪŋ ˈʃɒpɪŋ lɑːst wiːk, aɪ ˈnəʊtɪst hɪm ɪn ðə ˈgɑːdn nɪə ðə geɪt.
This time he was barking so that someone would let him out.
ðɪs taɪm hiː wɒz ˈbɑːkɪŋ səʊ ðæt ˈsʌmwʌn wʊd lɛt hɪm aʊt.
Since then, he has developed another bad habit.
sɪns ðɛn, hiː hæz dɪˈvɛləpt əˈnʌðə bæd ˈhæbɪt.
As soon as he opens the gate from outside, he comes into the garden and waits until the gate shuts.
æz suːn æz hiː ˈəʊpənz ðə geɪt frɒm ˌaʊtˈsaɪd, hiː kʌmz ˈɪntuː ðə ˈgɑːdn ænd weɪts ənˈtɪl ðə geɪt ʃʌts.
Then he sits and barks until someone lets him out.
ðɛn hiː sɪts ænd bɑːks ənˈtɪl ˈsʌmwʌn lɛts hɪm aʊt.
After this, he immediately lets himself in and begins barking again.
ˈɑːftə ðɪs, hiː ɪˈmiːdiətli lɛts hɪmˈsɛlf ɪn ænd bɪˈgɪnz ˈbɑːkɪŋ əˈgɛn.
Yesterday my husband removed the gate, and Rex got so annoyed we have never seen him since.
ˈjɛstədeɪ maɪ ˈhʌzbənd rɪˈmuːvd ðə geɪt, ænd rɛks gɒt səʊ əˈnɔɪd wiː hæv ˈnɛvə siːn hɪm sɪns.

知识笔记:
/ŋ/
1)嘴唇张开,舌后部抬起贴住软腭,阻止气流从口腔泄出。
2)软腭下垂,气流从鼻腔泄出,同时震动声带发音。
注意:/ŋ/是个浊辅音,声音震动。很多人会把/ŋ/发成/n/,/ŋ/和我们汉语拼音中的ng音非常相似,它和音标/n/的关系就像汉语拼音中an-ang,en-eng,in-ing的关系。

复习一下现在完成时态和虚拟语气:
现在完成时由“have/has+过去分词”构成,主要有两个含义:
①表示动作发生在过去,对现在有影响,有时无时间状语,有时和一些表示不确定的过去时间状语连用,如:many times,just,yet,ever,never,already,before,so far, by now等连用。
②表示从过去某一时间开始一直延续到现在并还可能继续延续下去的动作,用于延续性动词,且句中常带有表示一段时间的时间状语,如:since + 时间点/从句,for two months, so far等。
在“it is the first/second...time that...。”或在“it/this/that is the +最高级+名词+that...。”结构中,that从句中的动词常用现在完成时;表示到说话时为止动作发生过几次。在“it + be...+since从句”这一结构中,be可用一般现在时或现在完成时,since从句一般用过去时。have/has/had +been +动词的现在进行时。
虚拟语气:
通常,在上面表格里反映的是非真实条件句的虚拟语气模式,从句和主句的谓语动词时间是一致的,如果两者时间不一致,此时就是混合型虚拟语气。混合型虚拟语气的使用要求“各自为政”,即从句和主句根据各自假设的时间不同,采用上面表格中对应的的谓语动词形式。 如何“各自为政”呢?这就像是数学里的排列组合,一边有三种情况,交叉一搭配就出现了好多种情况。不管怎样,我们要遵循一个原则,就是“各自为政”。
eg:
1. If I had seen you, I would not be so worried now. 从句是对过去的假设,主句是对现在的假设
2. If you had not watched television so late last night, you would not be so sleepy now. 从句是对过去的假设,主句是对现在的假设
3. If I were you, I would seize the chance to go abroad. 从句和主句都是现在的假设
4. Had you followed the doctor’s suggestion, you would be fine now. 从句是对过去的假设,主句是对现在的假设
虚拟语气中的“含蓄之美”指的是含蓄虚拟语气。因为有时假设的情况并不是以if引导的条件从句形式出现,而是通过一些短语等形式暗示虚拟语气的存在,常用的词语有without, but for, otherwise, or等等,此时我们可以从意思上推断出虚拟语气的时间。
But for your encouragement, I would not have been admitted to this university. (过去) Without water, all lives would die. (现在)
虚拟语气的第二模块就是含有should +V的用法,这一部分主要是有关建议和命令的相关从句,包括主语从句,宾语从句,表语从句,同位语从句以及以之相关的形式主语宾语之类的从句。这一部分的词主要有常见的动词有advise, suggest, insist, order, require, recommend, command以及相关名词等等。记忆口诀:一个坚持(insist),两个命令(order, command),三个建议(suggest, advise, recommend),四个要求(ask, require, demand, request)。
1、宾语从句的虚拟语气
He insisted that the meeting (should) be put off.
The general ordered (that) all the soldiers (should) leave.
He gives orders that the soldiers (should) leave.
2. 表语从句的虚拟语气 My suggestion is that we (should) stay here for a rest.
3. 同位语从句的虚拟语气 There is no suggestion that she (should) resign.
4. 主语从句的虚拟语气主要体现在It做形式主语的三种情况: It’s +p.p +that ; It’s + adj. +that; It’s + n. +that
It’s demanded that all the students should go to the playground.
It’s important that you should take the medicine.
It’s a pity that you should refuse the invitation.
虚拟语气的第三大模块指的是虚拟语气在特殊句式中的运用。句这些句式使用的虚拟语气与上面的虚拟语气会有所不同,主要有两种情况:
(I). would rather, It’s time…, for fear that… would rather在使用时要注意它的不同用法。因为本身would rather可以直接接动词原形,构成would rather do sth. (than do sth.else); 或者would do sth. rather than do sth.else.而虚拟语气的would rather 是这样使用的 would rather sb. did(对现在或将来的假设)/ had done(对过去的假设)
I would rather he didn’t go now.
(II). wish+clause; as if/ though+ clause; If only这三种情况的虚拟语气有点相似。
wish后的宾语从句,谓语动词要用虚拟语气,其形式主要有三种wish sb. did(对现在的虚拟); wish sb. had done(对过去的虚拟); wish sb. would do (对将来的虚拟).偶尔在对过去的虚拟时,也会出现wish sb. would have done的情况。
I wish I knew what was going to happen.
She wished she had stayed at home.
I wish I would have seen her last night.
as if/ though出现的虚拟语气主要有两种情况:主句+as if/ though引导的状语从句; seem/ look/ smell +as if/ though引导的表语从句。
She talks as if she knew everything.
He behaved as if nothing had happened.
If only引起的感叹句要求用虚拟语气,表示愿望。形式为:用过去式或者would/ could do, 表示与现在或未来事实相反的愿望; 用过去完成式表示与过去事实相反的愿望。
If only he were here!
If only you would listen to our advise!
练习感悟:最近发现每次刚刚开始读都挺好的,后来在读了几遍之后, 开始着急就会读不好,但是在熟悉了文章内容之后就很顺畅了,这应该就是熟练的程度不同效果不同。
