Lesson Two 基础篇之四【情景对话】

Mary: Has Jenny broken up with her boyfriend, Tom? I saw him kissing with another attractive¹ girl , Rose under the tree in the university this afternoon.

Jane:Yeah, he did blew Jenny off for Rose living in a rich family.

Mary: Oh... I'm too sorry for Jenny. And does Jenny take it well?

Jane : You can imagine...

Mary:She'd been expulsed from school , moving out of university to live with Tom by renting a house and giving up his study so that she cannot get her university diploma². She'd been in love with Tom from head to toes and now love has gone. She gets nothing. Oh , my god! All of these is too cruel to her! I cannot imagine that if I were Jenny, I..

Jane: Don't you know Tom is skilled³ in playing with a girl ? Don't you know Tom is very easy to change his mind?

Mary : I know,I know... we would rather saying that he is easy change his mind rather than saying that he hadn't a heart. So , if a guy says that his love to me is forever and will never change, I won't buy it.

Jane: Now you are shouting. You can say it again.

Mary: And now , how is everything going with Jenny on earth? I really want to know about it. Please...

Jane:You know, Jenny is a pure girl who has a sense of emotional⁴ specificity⁵. By no means⁶ of course not, she cannot stood it and she was made crack⁷ up. Finally, she was sent to a mental hospital.

Mary: Really? Impossible! Is there anything wrong with my ears?Are you playing a joke on me? She is a so kind-hearted⁸ and an intelligent beauty.

Jane: I wish there was and I wish I was doing, but it's the truth. So, when we were in love with a guy, we should not let our feelings get the upper hand over us.

Mary : It's dead right. We are on the same page.

【口语表达讲解】

I won't buy it. 我不会相信的。

You are shouting.你说得对！

You can say it again. （= I feel the same way. ）我颇有同感。

We are on the same page. 我们俩想到一块去了。

She cannot stand it. 她收不了这件事儿。

She was sent into a mental hospital. 她在精神病院住院。

Is there anything wrong with something (or somebody) ?......出毛病了。......不对劲了。.......有问题了。

Let our feelings get the upper hand over us. 我们感情用事了。

How is everything going with somebody or something? .....进来还好么？

【书面表达讲解】

I saw him kissing with another attractive girl , Rose under the tree in the university this afternoon.

【要点】1 see somebody doing something 意思是：看见某人（正在）做某事。短语中的doing something是现在分词短语做宾语的补足语。2 in the university这个介词短语是修饰前面的tree，under the tree in the university指的是学校里种植的树木，要表示学校里的东西，用介词in, 如果是指在学校的活动，就是用介词at. I studied at the university.

He did blew Jenny off for Rose living in a rich family.

【要点】1 did是助动词，放在实义动词前起到加强语气的作用，翻译为：的确，确实，真的and so on. 它随着句子的时态而变化，句子是过去式，就用did. 例如： You did give me a surprise. 句子是一般现在时，就用do. I do see a doctor. 我确实要去看病了。2 living in a rich family是现在分词短语做定语，修饰前面的人Rose.

She'd been expulsed from school , moving out of university to live with Tom by renting a house and giving up his study so that she cannot get her university diploma.

【要点】moving out of .....和giving up her study是现在分词短语做原因状语。

I cannot imagine that if I were Jenny, I..

【要点】if I were Jenny是非真实条件虚拟句，“要是我是Jenny的话”，这是不可能成为现实的假设，根据上下文，由于是Jane和Mary在聊这件事儿，可以看出是对现在这个时候的虚拟，谓语动词用一般过去式。

I wish there was and I wish I was doing, but it's the truth.

【要点】I wish there was and I wish I was doing是省略句，完整的句子是I wish there was something wrong with your ears and I wish I was playing a joke on you... 在wish后面的宾语从句要用虚拟语气，本对话中是对现在情况的虚拟，表述的意思与现实情况想反，因此谓语用一般过去时。
