Language Points
make sb. feel at home 使某人感到宾至
如归
e.g. I’m doing everything I can to make
them feel at home.
我在尽我一切所能使他们感到宾至
如归。
2. You wouldn’t believe how quickly my
French has improved because of that.
You wouldn’t believe …是一个常用句式,
相当于汉语所说的“你无法想象……;你
想都想不到……;你绝不会相信……”,表
示所陈述的事情超出想象之外。与此类似
的表达还有You would never believe…或
You would hardly believe…。
e.g.
You wouldn’t believe that he found his long-
lost sister in Taiwan!
你绝对想不到他在台湾找到了失散多年的姐
姐!
You would never believe what quick progress
he’s made ever since he attended your class.
你根本无法想象,自从他听了您的讲课后进
步有多大。
3. My biggest challenge is learning how
to behave at the dinner table.
learning how to behave at the table是
现在分词短语,在此用作句子的表语。
e.g.
His main hobby is fishing.
他的主要爱好是钓鱼。
The most important thing is getting there in
time. 最重要的事是及时到达那里。
behave
不及物动词,意为“表现;行为”;
behave well / badly表示“表现好/糟糕”。
名词形式: behavior “举止;行为”,
是不可数名词。
【运用】请根据汉语意思补全英语句
子,每空一词。
(1) 如果你那样表现,你会让人厌恶的。
____ you _______ like that, you’ll get
yourself disliked.
(2) 如此的行为可能招致麻烦。
_____ _________ may cause trouble.
If behave
Such behavior
4. … but I’m gradually getting used to it.
get used to 习惯于
e.g. We get used to this way of
speaking.
我们习惯了这种说话方式。
① be/get used to sth./doing sth. 习惯于…
e.g. He got used to living in the
country.
他习惯住在乡下。
② used to do sth. 过去常常做某事(现
在不做了)
e.g. He used to plant roses.
他过去常常种植玫瑰。
辨析
5. Another example is that you’re not
supposed to eat anything with your
hand except bread, not even fruit.
except作介词,意为“除……之外”
,和but意义相似,但语气上要比but
更加强烈。
1) Everyone is here except him.
2) We have classes except Saturday and
Sunday.
通过观察例句1和例句2,我们可知
except后可以跟 ______ 和 ______。
3) I can take a holiday at any time except
in September.
通过观察例句3,可知,except后也可
跟__________。
代词 名词
介词短语
4) He never came to visit except to borrow
something.
5) He will do anything except lend you
money.
通过观察例句4,可知except后可接动词
不定式。意思是“除了做……”。但在例
句5中except后为“lend you money”,
所以我们可知若except前含不定代词时,
就要______________________。省略动词不定式的标志to
【运用】将下列汉语句子翻译成英语。
1. 除了烹饪,她别的都会干。
_______________________________
2. 我除了要通过考试之外,没有别的心
愿。
________________________________
____________
She can do everything except cook.
I have no other wish except to pass the
examination.
1. Compare the table manners in France and
China in your group. How are they the same
or different? Make a list.
2. Share your ideas with your class.
e.g. In France, people put their bread on
the table. But in China, we always put
our food on a plate or in a bowl. We
never put food on the table.

advice about Chinese customs. When you
are eating at the table, it’s impolite to stick
your chopsticks into your food. You are not
supposed to point at anyone with your
chopsticks.
