Wonderful time in Zhangjiajie
Dear Mum and Dad,
I promised to write, so…
We’re staying with Lingling’s uncle in Hunan Province, and I’m having a wonderful time here in Zhangjiajie.
It’s a magic land of mountains, forests and rivers. It’s very large, about 480 square kilometres. It’s famous for the strange shape of its tall rocks. Some of them look like humans while others look like wild animals.
Last night we camped by a small lake. During the night, we heard a noise! It woke everybody up. We thought somebody was moving about. Lingling’s uncle said it was an animal. We came out without making any noise, and found it was just a hungry monkey looking for food.
This morning, we climbed Mount Tianzi! From the top we hoped to see the lakes and forests. But it was a pity that it was cloudy. We could only see the mountain tops above the clouds.
Then we walked down the path, along a river, past trees and other plants and back to the camp. I pulled a leaf off a plant, but Lingling’s uncle said that it was wrong to pull leaves off plants and that we should protect everything here. I was very sorry.
Tomorrow we’re going to Dongting Lake, the second-largest freshwater lake in China. We’ll be back home next week! Wish you were here!
Love,
Betty

例：我们学校大约有一平方公里，它非常大。
Our school is about one square kilometre,
it’s very large.
1. It’s very large, about 480 square kilometres.
square kilometre, 表示“平方公里”。
2. It’s famous for the strange shape of its tall rocks.
be famous for 固定短语，“因……而闻名；以……著名”。主语既可以是表示人也可以是表示地点。主语是表示人的词语时，表示以某种技能或特征而闻名；主语是表示地点的词语时，表示以某种特产或某处名胜古迹而著名。
She is famous for his sweet voice.
例：这个镇以温泉而闻名。
The town is famous for its hot springs.
她以甜美的嗓音而出名
That cloud has a strange shape.
shape 表示“形状”。
例：这座建筑是什么形状？
What’s the shape of the building
那朵云的形状很奇怪。
例：Don’t wake up the baby. = Don’t wake the baby up.
Let’s wake him up now.
3. It woke everybody up.
wake up固定短语，“叫醒……”。当wake up的宾语是名词时，宾语可放在wake和up的中间或up的后面；当wake up的宾语是代词时，宾语只能放在wake和up的中间。
wake的过去式为woke，过去分词为 woken。
He walked past me without making any noise.
4. We came out without making any noise, ...
without doing sth. 表示“没有做某事”。
make noise 表示“产生噪音，发出声响。
例：他从我身边走过，没有发出任何声音。
例：有人在操场上踢足球吗？
Is there anybody playing football on the
playground
5. We thought somebody was moving about.
somebody 表示“某人”，用在肯定句中。
在否定句和疑问句中要用anybody。
6. But it was a pity that it was cloudy.
It’s a pity that he failed the exam.
“It’s a pity that + 从句”，表示“很遗憾 ……”。
例：很遗憾他考试不及格。
7. I pulled a leaf off a plant, ...
pull 作动词时，“拉，拖，拔”，表示把物体用力向自己的方向拉并使其移动。和pull相对应的词是push，“推”。
例：别推门。请拉一下。
Don’t push the door. Pull it, please.
pull sth. off … 表示“从……拉下……”。
例：这个孩子从植物上摘下一朵花。
The child pulled a flower off the plant.
当谓语动词表示肯定的概念，如“希望、相信、知道、说”时，其后面的句子一般用that引导。that 没有任何词汇含义，只有语法功能，目的是使读者清楚后面的句子是宾语从句。多数情况下 that可以省略。
例：I hope (that) it will snow this winter.
Betty thinks (that) trees can improve the air.
常接 that 宾语从句的谓语动词有：believe, expect, explain, feel, hear, hope, imagine, prefer, promise, report, say, see, tell, think, under, stand, warn, wish等。
