Vocabulary: opposites  

You can often make opposites of adjectives using a prefix.  

Example able/unable, pleased/displeased, considerate/inconsiderate  

Use prefixes to make opposites of the underlined words.  

Peter is very organized and reliable. He is also sociable, sensitive and tolerant. He seems interested in or aware of other people’s feelings and is often kind. When you ask him for something, he is always sympathetic and helpful. I think he must be very satisfied with his life.  

Answers: unreliable, intolerant, unaware, unkind, unsympathetic, unhelpful, dissatisfied  

Sometimes adjectives have a direct opposite.  

Example old/young, short/tall  

Think of opposites for these adjectives:  

Bad-tempered, generous, hard-working, nervous, shy, strong  

Answers: good-tempered, mean, lazy, confident, out-going, weak  

Now use adjectives to write five sentences about yourself and people you know.  

Example I am sometimes disorganized, but usually I am reliable.  

Writing and speaking  

Make notes about the first time you met someone.  

 Who/when/where you met  

Xiaoming (my new neighbour), last month, in the street  

What he/she was doing  

going into his house with his bike  

what he/she said or did  

asked about my family/showed me his cat  

what he/she seemed like  

cheerful, a bit shy  

Language points:  

1.The day that I met my best friend for the first time I was in a terrible mood.第一次遇到我最好的朋友那天,我情绪很坏。  

 in a …mood 带着某种情绪。如:  

 Let’s discuss it in a calm mood.让咱们心平气和地讨论这件事。  

 I am in no mood for that. 我可没情绪。  

2. I was getting more and more annoyed and of course, the more displeased I got, the less I was able to concentrate.我越来越烦躁,当然了,我越不高兴,就越难集中精力。  

   More and more 越来越。如:  

He became more and more interested in playing tennis.   

他越来越喜欢打网球。  

E-commerce has become more and more popular as people have discovered the advantages of online shopping.  

电子商务越来普及,因为人们发现了网上的购物的好处。  

1.     I turned around and glared at the person who was humming.  

2.     我转身怒视着那个哼唱的人。  

    glare at 怒视。如  

 The fighting men were glaring at each other.   

两个打斗的男人愤怒地对视着。  

 The angry father glared at his son. 愤怒的父亲瞪着儿子。  

4.The fact that she looked like a sensitive, friendly girl didn’t wipe the frown off my face however, if anything, it made me even angrier.她看起来是个善解人意的友善的女孩,但这并没有拂平我紧皱的眉头,而是平添了我几分怒气。  

句中that 所引导的是一个同位语从句。  

紧跟在名词之后并说明该名词是指何人何物的词语称为同位语。如:  

Mr Wang ,the father of one of my co-workers, is 94 years old and is still healthy.王先生,,我同事的父亲,今年94岁了还很健康。  

句中的the father of one of my co-workers, Mr Wang 的同位语。  

同位语从句与定语从句在结构上很相似,但同位语从句是用来解释先行词,表示其内容的;而定语从句则是用来修饰先行词,说明其性质和特征的。如:  

I made a promise that if anyone set me free I would make him very rich. 我许下一个诺言:谁能还我自由,我就使他富有。(同位语从句)  

The mother made a promise that pleased all her children.母亲许了一个使孩子们全都非常高兴的诺言。(定语从句)  

if anything 如果有什么不同的话。如:  

If anything, my new job is harder than my older one.如果有什么不同的话,我的新工作比原先的工作更累了。  

No, it isn’t better; it’s worse if anything.没有好起来,如果有什么不同的话,那就是更糟糕了。  

5I couldn’t resist chuckling at this and I invited her back to my apartment for a quick cup of tea.我止不住轻声发笑,并邀请她到我的公寓里来喝杯茶。  

resist doing 禁不住要做某事。如:  

Look at those lovely dresses. I can’t resist buying one.  

看看这些漂亮的裙子!我真忍不住要买一件。  

I could not resist laughing.我禁不住要笑。  

6. We confide in each other and I trust her more than anyone else.我们相互信任,我对她比对任何人都信任。  

confide in 信赖,讲心话。如:  

I confide in him. I don’t think he will deceive me.我信任他,我觉得他不会欺骗我。  

Modern girls seldom confide in their mothers. 现代派的女孩很少信赖自己的母亲。  

7If Jenny hadn’t been such a kind, forgiving person I would never have experienced such true friendship.珍妮要不是如此体贴,如此宽容,我就永远不会享受到如此真挚的友谊。  

本句中使用了虚拟语气。虚拟语气表示的事情并非事实,因此需要使用与陈述语气不同的动词形式。在表示现在或未来的虚拟条件句中,谓语如下(斜体部分):  

1)表示现在或未来的虚拟形式。如:  

If I were you, I would teach him a good lesson. 我若是你,我就要好好教训他一顿。(我不可能是你。)  

2)表示过去的虚拟形式。如:  

If the weather had been nice yesterday, we would have gone for the picnic.如果昨天天气好的话,我们就去野餐了。(事实是昨天天气很坏。)
