③It's a small company that publishes twenty new titles a year. (书刊的)一种,一本
④His new title in the company is senior vice president. 职称,头衔
2.alarm n.警报器;闹钟;警报;惊恐,惊慌

②I knocked on all the doors to raise the alarm. 警报

1.(学会断句)While we're doing all this traveling,we can get seasick at sea,airsick in the air/ and carsick in a car,but we don't get homesick/ when we get back home.
[分析] 本句是一个并列复合句,由but连接两个并列分句。前一个分句中while引导时间状语从句,后一个分句中when引导时间状语从句。
[翻译] 旅行期间,我们会在海上晕船(seasick at sea)、在飞机里晕机(airsick in the air)、在车里晕车(carsick in a car),但回到家里我们却不会“晕家”(homesick,实际意义为“思乡的”)。
2.(学会断句)You also have to wonder at/ the unique madness of a language/ in which a house can burn up/ as it burns down,in which you fill in a form/ by filling it out,and in which an alarm is only heard/ once it goes off!
[分析] 本句是一个复合句。句中三个in which引导的都是定语从句,修饰先行词a language,in which在从句中作地点状语,as it burns down是as引导的时间状语从句,once it goes off是once引导的时间状语从句。
[翻译] (英语)这门语言独有的疯狂也令你不得不感到惊奇。在英语里,房子烧成灰烬的时候,可以说burn up(字面意思为“烧上去”),也可以说burn down(字面意思为“烧下去”);填表的时候,你可以fill in a form(字面意思为“填入表里”),也可以fill out a form(字面意思为“填到表外”);而且只有闹钟走了(go off字面意思为“离开”)以后你才能听到铃声!
1.(应用文佳句)And speaking of home,why aren't homework and housework the same thing
说到家,为什么homework(家庭作业)和housework(家务)(这两个英语单词看起来很像意思却)不是一回事呢?
2.(应用文佳句)If “hard” is the opposite of “soft”,why are “hardly” and “softly” not an opposing pair
如果说hard(硬)是soft(软)的反义词,为什么hardly(几乎不)和softly(柔和地)却不是一对反义词?
3.(应用文佳句)English was invented by people,not computers,and it reflects the creativity of the human race.
英语是人创造的,不是计算机发明的,它反映了人类的创造力。
Have you ever asked yourself why people often have trouble learning English I hadn't,until one day my five-year-old son asked me whether there was ham in a hamburger.There isn't.This made me realize that there's no egg in eggplant either.Neither is there pine nor apple in pineapple.This got me thinking how English can be a crazy language to learn.(共15张PPT)
