第二、陷阱短语精讲

1. full of smiles:满脸笑容的,满面春风的

讲解:full of是形容词短语,意思是“充满......的”,smile作为“微笑,笑容”,它是可数名词,这里使用的是其复数形式。再如:give sb a happy smile (对某人愉快地微笑)。

2. look for work:找工作

讲解:look for是“寻找”的意思,表示“寻找工作”,用到work的话,就视为不可数名词,所以前面不要加任何冠词。

第三、写作句式

No doubt ( that ) ...

讲解:它的意思是“毋庸置疑......”“毫无疑问......”,在它后面通常有that引导一个从句,这个从句为同位语从句。这个句式还可用:There is no doubt ( that )...

例句:No doubt they will be delighted to take care of him.

没问题他们会很高兴照顾他的。

There is no doubt that we will succeed in designing the project.

毫无疑问,我们能把这项工程设计出来。

3. leave the room:离开房间

4. a fine lady:贵妇人

难点点拨

1. A few days later when Tess came back from looking for work,the children came running out and danced round her.

点拨1:came back from looking for work中的from是介词,后面跟的动词是look,要使用动名词形式。

点拨2:running out是现在分词短语方式状语,说明come(来)是怎么样的来。

2. No doubt he'll marry her and she'll be a fine lady.

点拨: he'll marry her and she'll be a fine lady是同位语从句,省略了引导词that,因为它无实际意义,从句的同为词是doubt,说明dout(疑问)的具体内容。
