2b 1. Do you know what a resolution is? It’s a kind of promise. Most of the time, we make promises to other people. (“Mom, I promise I’m going to tidy my room when I get back from school.”) However, promises you make to yourself are resolutions, and the most common kind is New Year’s resolutions. _______ When we make resolutions at the beginning of the year, we hope that we are going to improve our lives. Some people write down their resolutions and plans for the coming year. This helps them to remember their resolutions. Others tell their family and friends about their wish and plans.
D
2. There are different kinds of resolutions. Some are about physical health. For example, some people promise themselves they are going to start an exercise program or eat less fast food. Many resolutions have to do with self-improvement. _____Some people might say they are going to take up a hobby like painting or taking photos, or learn to play the guitar. Some resolutions have to do with better planning, like making a weekly plan for schoolwork._____
A
B
3. Although there are differences,
most resolutions have one thing
in common. People hardly ever keep
them! ___Sometimes the resolutions
may be too difficult to keep.
Sometimes people just forget about them. For this reason, some people say the best resolution is to have no resolutions! How about you— will you make any next year?

Explanation
2. They are going to start an exercise program
or eat less fast food.
eat与have这两个动词都可以表示“吃”。
eat可用作及物或不及物动词, 是日常用语,
但用在日常口语中不够礼貌。让别人“吃”,
通常用have。
eg: Where shall we have our dinner?
我们在哪儿吃饭?
注意: “吃药”
习惯上说have/take medicine
不说eat/drink medicine。
eg: Your son catches a bad cold.
He should have some medicine.
你儿子得了重感冒,他应该吃药。
3. Some resolutions have to do with better
planning…
有些决定与合理的规划有关…
1) 句中planning 为名词,表示“计划、规划”如:city planning(城市规划)。better plan 意为:合理规划,指通过制定计划来更加充分地利用时间、空间、精力。
2) have to do with 表示“与…相关;与…有关联或有关系”如:
What dose this problem have to do with what we ’re learning today?
这道题跟我们今天所学的内容有什么关系?
4. Sometimes the resolutions may be too difficult to
keep.有些时候这些决定可能会太难而无法实现
1) 句中情态动词 may 表示推测,相当于汉语的“可能;也许;大概”的意思。如:
You may be right this time, but I’ m not sure.
这一次或许你是对的,但是我无法确定。
2) 英语中too…to…是一个固定结构,表示“太…而不能… ’’如:
The kid is too young to play this game.
这个小孩太小,不能玩这个游戏。
3) 句中的动词keep表示“履行(诺言等);遵守(惯例等)”如:
People hardly ever keep them!
人们很少履行它们(指计划)。
还有类似的用法:
keep a promise(信守承诺)
keep one’s promise (遵守承诺;说话算数)等。eg:
We always keep our word.
我们说话是算数的。
