基礎英語輕松學【2】童話英語(2)
今天的課程中,您將學到:
askfor or
「英漢對照」
When the fisherman got home, he saw his wife standing outside a beautiful new house with a small garden beside it. They were happy there for a few weeks, until one day the wife said to the husband, This house isnt big enough for us now. Go down to the little fish and ask him for a bigger one.
當漁夫到家時,看到自己的妻子站在一座漂亮的房子外面,旁邊還有一個小花園。(他的愿望達成了!)他們過了幾個星期快樂的日子,直到有一天妻子對他說:這房子不夠住了,你去告訴他給我們一個更大的。
「串講」
人是永遠都不會滿足的,所以學會提要求很重要,只是千萬不要像這個老太婆一樣,光顧這給別人提要求,那就太過分了哦。
ask sb for sth, to make a request for(sth)or to (someone) 要求,請求。
She asked (me) for a drink. 她請求(我)給她一杯水。
不過,在世博英語,我們卻可以承諾:
You can ask us for anything about learning English.
千萬別跟我們客氣哦!
「小補貼」
既然大家這么看得起我,索性就再教大家幾個帶有ask的實用短句:
1、Dont ask me!
Wheres Tom? Dont ask me! Tom在哪?別問我!(我怎么知道!)
顯得有些不太客氣是吧,所以,這句話只能在比較熟的朋友之間使用哦。
2、You may well ask!
What crazy scheme has he got in mind now? You may well ask! (=thats a good question because it certainly is something crazy.) 他現在又在考慮什么瘋狂計劃?你問得好!
3、If you ask me.
I think he likes her. If you ask me, hes in love. 我覺得他喜歡她。照我看,他是在戀愛呢!
看了前面的故事,你可能會說:
If you ask me, I think the fisherman is a coward.
不要著急,他馬上就要發表意見了。
「英漢對照」
Thats not right, said the fisherman. He has already given us this new house. I cant ask him for more. Right or not, you must go and ask him, shouted his wife. Or therell be no dinner for you tonight.
這是不對的,漁夫說。他已經給了我們一座新房子,我不能再要求更多了。我不管什么對錯,總之你必須去問他要,他的妻子叫喊道。否則你今晚就不要吃飯了!
「串講」
人是鐵,飯是剛,一頓不吃餓得慌,看來丈夫們都受不了這一招,所以各位美眉,想要把老公訓得服服帖帖,一定要記住下面這句哦。
Or therell be no dinner for you tonight.
Or在這里不表示或者的意思,而是if not; otherwise 否則,要不然。
當然,也不能總是一副冷面孔,適當的時候也要表現一下我們的溫柔體貼:
Wear you coat or youll be cold.
穿上衣服,要不你會覺得冷。
可是,如果他軟硬不吃,就要給他最后通牒了:
Either say youre sorry or get out.
要不(你)道歉,要不滾出去。
Or 經常與either 連用,表示要不要不。
好了,不能再扇風點火了,呵呵希望大家都家庭和睦,永遠不要用到這兩句話才好!
「小補貼」
此外,or還有一個用法:or can be used when you want to limit or correct something you have said, 當你要對你所說的話加以限定或更正時,可用or.比如:
Its going to snow tomorrow, or thats what the forecast says.
明天要下雪,確切的說,天氣預報是這么說的。
(這樣就算沒下雪,也不會落下埋怨了嘛!)
He is, or was, a very famous writer.
他是,準確的說,他過去是一位非常有名的作家。
「語法小教室」
bigger是big的比較級,意思是更大的。one指得就是house,在這里用one 代替house是為了避免重復。
