第一部分对话:下雨天

我们希望你经过了一个时期的听讲,不看材料也能容易地听懂。今后我们这里印出的Dialogues只是广播里的一部分。

Dialogue 1
英语情景对话1

一个星期天下午,外面下着雨,Debbie和Ben两个孩子呆在家里,没法出去玩,显得坐立不安。

DEBBIE: It's my book!
BEN: It's not! It's mine!
DEBBIE: It's mine!
BEN: Ow! Mum! She hit me!
DEBBIE: I did not.* He took my book.
BEN: It's not yours. It's mine.
DEBBIE: Mum, it's not his. It's mine.
MOTHER: Stop it!
*这里一般要说I didn't。说I did not,语气比较强烈,用来与人争辩。

第三部分:课程

POSSESSION所属关系

1.问别人某些东西是属于谁的,可以说:
a) Whose book is it/this?
如果问的东西双方都知道,就可以简单地说:
Whose is it/this?
如果问的东西不止一个,就说:
Whose are they/these?
b) Who does this (book) belong to?
Who do these comics belong to?
c) Is this your book/yours?
2.你要说什么东西属于你或者别人,可以用下面四种方式:

(a) John owns that book
(b) It's John's book
(c) It's John's
(d) It belongs to John

请注意下面优句中代词的形式与用法:
It's my bike (It's MINE)
It belongs to me (It's MINE)
It's your car (It's YOURS)
It belongs to you (It's YOURS)
They're his bats (They're HIS)
They belong to him (They're HIS)
It's her car (It's HERS)
It belongs to her (It's HERS)
It's our radio (It's OURS)
It belongs to us (It's OURS)
It's their chair (It's THEIRS)
It belongs to them (It's THEIRS)
注意:
方框里的四个句子表达的是一个意思。但(a)中的own(古有)的宾语一般不用人;(d)中所说的是东西belong to(属于)人,通常不说人belong to任何人。
Own有较强烈的所有权概念。
如果双方都知道问的是什么东西,可以用(c)的格式。这样可以避免重复名词。
比较下面两个表示所属关系的句子:
It's John's back.
It's the back of the chair.
第一句用于人,第二句用于物。再举几个例子:
That's my aunt's house.(如果知道指的是什么,可以说:That's my aunt's.)
BUT
That's the end of the lane.
The girl's desk BUT
The height of the building
在有些情况下,英语句子里虽然用了所有格的词,但监不真正说明所有关系,在汉语里有另外的说法。
Your serve 你发球
Her point 她得分
His bus 他(每天)要坐的公共汽车
广播里你听到:
She's a friend of mine
这一句的意思是:她是我的同学之一(friend可以指“同学”),中文当然要说:她是我的同学。英语国家的人往往用以下两个句子表示不同的意思。
She's my friend(不同一般的朋友或同掌,甚至是唯一的。)
She's a friend of mine.(朋友或同学之一,这样的同学不止一个。)
所以,在一般情况下最好说 She's a friend of mine。

第四部分:猜谜语

请你猜个谜语:

It belongs to you, it's yours -
but others use it more than you do.
What is it?
