Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting. I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. "I can't hear a word!" I said angrily.
"It's none of your business," the young man said rudely. "This is a private conversation!"

Why was the writer's aunt surprised?
It was Sunday. I never get up early on Sundays. I sometimes stay in bed until lunchtime. Last Sunday I got up very late. I looked out of the window. It was dark outside. 'What a day!' I thought. 'It's raining again.' Just then, the telephone rang. It was my aunt Lucy. 'I've just arrived by train,' she said. 'I'm coming to see you.'
'But I'm still having breakfast,' I said.
'What are you doing?' she asked.
'I'm having breakfast,' I repeated.
'Dear me,' she said. 'Do you always get up so late? It's one o'clock!'

【知识点讲解】
1 get up [短语] (使)起床
get up 还有①起身、站起(相当于stand up);②(海浪、风等)增强、变猛烈的意思。
例句:Everyone get up when the manager came in.
当经理走进来时每个人都站立起来了。
2 sometimes 有时候
sometime,sometimes,some time,some times用法区别
sometime
(1)副词:某个时候。可指过去或将来的某个时候。
(2)形容词:(指某人曾经是……)从前的,过去的,意思类似former,偶尔的。
例句:We’ll take our holiday sometime in August.
我们会在八月找个时间度假。(将来)
This is our sometime general manager.
这是我们的前任总经理。(过去)
sometimes 副词:有时候。另外,at times也是“有时”的意思。
例句:Sometimes, I recall the campus life.
有时候,我会回想起大学生活。
some time 某段时间。常与for连用。
例句:I will stay here for some time.
我将在这儿待一段时间。
some times 几次。several times也可以表示“几次”,但比some times较确定。time作可数名词时可作“次数”解;表示“时间”时是不可数名词。
例句:He has been to America some times.
他去过几次美国。
3 outside adv. 在外面;向外面,也可表示在户外。
例句:I am cleaning the house, please wait outside for several minutes.

4 on sundays,指每个星期日。星期几的前面要用介词on。
例句:I usually go hiking on Friday.

5 What a day!
多么糟糕的天气!这是一个省略的感叹句。完整的句子应该是What a day it is!英语中的感叹句常用what开头,后面紧跟一个名词或名词性短语(包括连系动词),然后是主语和谓语,句尾用感叹号,即其基本形式是:What+(a)名词+主谓结构。使用what感叹句时要注意:如果what后面是可数名词单数,则一定要加不定冠词。what后面的名词词组不能加定冠词。
例句:What a happy day we had yesterday!
昨天真是开心的一天!
What bad news it was!
真是个坏消息!
6 I'm coming to see you.
在这句话中,是用现在进行时表示近期计划或安排将要进行的动作。
具有这种语法功能的词仅限于过渡性动词,比如:come, go, leave, start, arrive, return等。
例句:My aunt is coming tonight.
我姨妈今晚要来。

First listen and then answer the question.
听录音,然后回答以下问题。
How many cards did the writer send?
Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went to Italy. I visited museums and sat in public gardens. A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian. Then he lent me a book. I read a few lines, but I did not understand a word. Every day I thought about postcards. My holidays passed quickly, but I did not send cards to my friends. On the last day I made a big decision. I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card!
【课文翻译】
明信片总搅得我假日不得安宁。去年夏天,我去了意大利。我参观了博物馆,还去了公园。一位好客的服务员教了我几句意大利语,之后还借给我一本书。我读了几行,但一个字也不懂。我每天都想着明信片的事。假期过得真快,可我还没有给我的朋友们寄过一张明信片。到了最后一天,我作出了一项重大决定。我早早起了床,买来了37张明信片。我在房间里关了整整一天。然而竟连一张明信片也没写成!

【知识点讲解】
一、词汇解析
1 send [动词] 寄,发送;传达,告知;派遣,打发
send sb. something/ send sth. to sb.
例句:Lily sent me a present from Australia.
莉莉从澳大利亚给我寄来了礼物。
短语扩展:send for sb. 请某人来
例句:Please hurry up send for a doctor!
请赶快请医生过来!
2 spoil [动词] 破坏,毁掉;溺爱,娇惯,宠坏
spoil的过去式和过去分词可以是spoiled或spoilt
例句:My weekend was spoilt by his sudden visit.
我的周末被他的突然到访破坏了。
spoil还可表示长辈对晚辈的溺爱,娇惯。
例句:Jack is spoilt by his mother.
杰克被他的妈妈宠坏了。
3 public [形容词] 公共的,公众的;百姓的
这个词与我们第1课中讲到的private是一对反义词。
public library 公共图书馆
public transport 公共运输
例句:The media has a great influence on public opinion.
传媒对大众舆论有很大影响。
public也可以作名词,前面加定冠词the,表示平民,百姓。
例句:The president gave a speech to the public.
总统对公众进行了演讲。
4 friendly [形容词] 友好的,友爱的;亲切的,善意的;朋友似的
friendly是一个形容词,要特别注意,它的比较级和最高级分别是friendlier,friendliest。
短语扩展:friendly to/ towards sb.
例句:Everyone was friendly to me.
每个人对我都很友好。
friendly match 友谊赛
5 lend [动词] 借给,借出
lend (out) sth. to sb./ lend sb. sth.
例句:Can you lend me your cellphone?
你能把手机借我用用吗?
lend,borrow,keep的区别
两者都可表示“借”,但是 borrow 指“借入”,而 lend 则指“借出”,两者其实是一对反义词,而不是同义词。如:
I borrowed this book from the library.
我从图书馆借到了这本书。
He lent his dictionary to me.
他把字典借给我。
要表示“向某人借某物”,英语用borrow sth from sb,其中用介词from。
要表示“把某物借给某人”,英语用lend sth to sb,其中用介词to。
具体可见以上两个例句。
keep做“借”讲时,是延续性动词,通常表示借了某物多长时间,常与表示一段时间的时间状语连用。而borrow 和lend 是短暂性动词,不能与表示一段时间的时间状语连用。
例句:You can keep this bike for a week.
这辆自行车你可以借用一周。
二、语法解析
1 go to+地名 表示去某地
例句:I want to go to Tibet.
我想去西藏。
2 a few words 翻译为“几句话”,而不是“几个单词”。
3 think about 思考,思索
think about/ of sb./ sth. 考虑到,关心,替……着想
例句:Did you ever think about me?
你什么时候为我想过?
短语扩展 think ahead (to sth.) 预先计划,预想
think back 回想,追忆
think for yourself 独立思考,自行决定
think sth. over 仔细考虑,慎重思考
4 I visited museums and sat in public gardens.
这个句子里visited和sat都是用的过去式,这个句子就使用了一般过去时的形式。
一般过去时主要用来对过去发生的事情作一般性的描述。
①表示过去发生的事件和状态,只强调过去的一个事实,与现在无任何联系。
例句:I went to Beijing 3 years ago.
我三年前去过北京。
②表示过去的习惯性动作,而且必须带表示频率的时间状语。否则,只能表示过去的某个一次性动作。
例句:He wrote a letter every week.
他过去每周写一封信。
③叙述过去发生的一连串动作。在这一句型中,几个实义动词要求使用同一种形式。
例句:He washed his face, put on his coat, opened the door, and rushed out.
他洗完脸,穿上外套,打开门,然后冲了出去。
