Could you please do your homework.
Yes, I can. But can I watch TV first
No, you can’t. You must finish your homework first.
1. It is the parents’ job to provide a clean and comfortable environment at home for their children.
此处代词it仅为形式上的主语, 真正的主语是to provide … for their children。我们也可将It is one’s job (duty, …) to do something.视为一个固定的句型, 表示“做某事是某人的工作(职责等)”。如:
The movie theater provides us with good service.剧院提供给我们良好的服务。
His school provided a house for him.
学校提供给他一间房子。
provide sb with sth
provide sth for sb
2. And anyway, I think doing chores is not so difficult.
反正我觉得干点家务也不难。
anyway是一个副词, 若位于句首, 其后往往会有逗号将其与句子的其他内容隔开。anyway在此句中的作用是追加评论, 相当于汉语的“反正; 仍然; 依然”。如:
Sam didn’t get the job, but he’s not unhappy because it didn’t pay well anyway.
萨姆没有得到那份工作, 但他并没有闷闷不乐, 反正薪酬也不算高。
anyway还可用来表示“不管怎样; 无论如何”之意。例如:
It’s just a cold. But anyway, you should still see the doctor.
这只不过是感冒, 但不管怎样, 你还是应该看看医生。
根据句意和首字母提示完成单词。
1. He h____ doing the dishes. He thinks it’s boring.
2. I n____ some help. Could you help me
3. To keep the floor clean, I usually s_____ the floor twice a week.
4. What a mess (杂乱)! Could you please f___ your
clothes, David
hates
need
