1. Some people write down their resolution and plans for the coming year.
write down由“动词+副词”构成,意为“写
下;记下”。当write down后接名词作宾
语时,名词可位于down之后,也可位于
write 和down之间;当write down后接代
词作宾语时,代词通常位于write 和down
之间。如:
Please write down your name on the paper.

You should write it down.
【运用】根据汉语意思完成英语句子,每空一词(含缩略形式)。

2. Some resolutions have to do with better planning, …
有些决定与合理的时间规划相关,……
1) have to do with这个结构表示“与……相关;与……有关联或有关系”。
e.g. What does this problem have to do with what we’re learning today?
(翻译)
这道题跟我们今天所学的内容有什么关系?
2) 此句中的planning为名词, 表示“计划;规划”等意思,如:city planning(城市规划)等。
英语中better planning类似汉语中的“合理规划”,指通过制定计划来更加充分地利用时间、空间、精力等。
3. Sometimes the resolutions may be too difficult to keep.
有时这些决定可能会太难而无法实现。
此处情态动词may表示推测,相当于汉语的“可能;或许;大概”之意。
e.g. You may be right this time, but
I’m not sure. (翻译)
这一次你或许是对的,但我无法
确定。
2) 英语中too…to…是一种固定结构,表示“太……而不能……”, too后通常接形容词或副词的原级,to后接动词原形。
e.g. The kid is too young to play this
game.
这孩子太小, 不能玩这个游戏。
“too ... to ...”结构可用“so ... that ...”结构改写。如:
I’m too busy to go out with you. = I’m so busy that I can’t go out with you.
也可用“not ... enough to ...”结构(不够……而不能……)改写,但enough前面的形容词或副词与“too ... to ...” 结构中的形容词或副词互为反义词。如:
Jim is too short to reach the book. = Jim is not tall enough to reach the book.
【运用】根据要求完成下列各题。
1. A: The box is so heavy that we can’t
carry it.
B: The box is ____ heavy for us ____
carry.?(句型转换)
2. 我太累了而不能工作。 (翻译成英语)
___________________________________
3. The boy is not old enough to go to
school. ?(用too ... to ... 改写句子)
___________________________________
too to
I’m too tired to work.
The boy is too young to go to school.
3) 本句中的动词keep意为“履行(诺言等);遵
守(惯例等)”,这是keep的常见用法之一。类似的句子还有:
People hardly ever keep them!
人们很少履行它们(指计划)。
在这一语义下,常见的表述还有keep a promise(信守诺言),keep one’s word(遵守承诺; 说话算数)等。如:
We always keep our word. (翻译)
我们说话是算数的。
4. Were you able to keep them?
be able to & can
be able to和can都可表示“能; 能够”的
意思, 但两者的用法有所不同。
be able to有人称和数的变化,而can
没有人称和数的变化。如:
I am / My sister is / They are able to
speak English well.?
I / My sister / They can speak English
well.
be able to可用于多种时态, 而can只有现在式和过去式。如:
The boy is able to do some cooking.
I will be able to help you look after the dog next year.
Linda was able to play the violin well at the age of 11.?
