1.Seeing is believing.
本句中的Seeing与believing都是动名词,Seeing在句中作主语,believing在句中作表语。动名词还可在句中作宾语。
【拓展】 Seeing is believing.也可以表达为To see is to believe.,但是主语与表语的形式要一致,要么都用动名词,要么都用动词不定式。
2.An apple a day keeps the doctor away.
keep…away意为“使……远离”。 keep away from意为“远离”。
Grammar
3.Although sayings are usually simple and easy to remember,they are full of deep meaning.
短语be full of与be filled with同义,意为“充满,装满”。
4.They come from the experience of generations of people,and from different walks of life.
walk在本句中意为“活动领域,地位;职业”,people from/in different/all walks of life的意思是“各界人士”。
5.Early to bed and early to rise makes a man healthy,wealthy and wise.
本句的主语是由and连接的两个动词不定式短语,被视为一个概念,所以谓语动词用单数形式,如果表示两个概念,谓语动词要用复数形式。
6.A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.
begin with意为“以……开始;以
……为起点”,其反义短语为end in,意为“结束于……,以……告终”。
7.Well begun is half done.
本句是省略句,补全后是:That it is well begun is that it is half done.。
8.Don’t be penny wise and pound foolish.
◆penny wise还可以写成penny-wise,意为“小事上精明的;小数目上节约的”;同样,pound foolish也可以写成pound-foolish,意为“大事上糊涂的;大数目上马虎的”,它们都属于合成形容词。
◆pound为名词,意为“磅”,作重量单位;pound还是英国的货币单位,意为“英镑”。1英镑=100便士(pence)。
◆foolish为形容词,意为“愚蠢的;傻的”。由名词fool(傻瓜,笨蛋)加后缀-ish而成。
9.Actions speak louder than words.
◆action在此处为可数名词,意为“所做之事,行动”。 【拓展】action(n.行动,活动) ↑actor(n.男演员)←act(v.行动,扮演)→actress(n.女演员)↓active(adj.活泼的,积极的)→activity(n.活动,行动)
◆loud为副词,意为“高声地,大声地”;loud还可用作形容词,意为“高声的,大声的”,此处用loud的比较级louder。
【辨析】 loud,aloud,loudly
loud,aloud与loudly用作副词时区别如下:
(1)loud响亮地,高声地,侧重发出的音量大,传得远,常与动词speak,talk,say,laugh等连用。
(2)aloud出声地,大声地,强调发出的声音能被听见,常与动词read,call等连用。
(3)loudly高声地,有时可与loud通用,但含有“喧闹”或“嘈杂”的意味。
10.These sayings help people understand the world and form good habits,or encourage people to work hard and as a team.
◆encourage sb.to do sth.意为“鼓励某人做某事”。
◆as 前省略了work。
11.Whether the sayings are in Chinese,
English,or any other language,they share something in common.
◆本句中由whether…or…引导的分句作状语,意为“无论……,还是……”。
【辨析】 whether,if
(1)whether意为“是否”,可用来引导宾语从句,可与or not连用;当从句置于句首或引导主语从句、表语从句时,只能用whether。
(2)if意为“是否”,用来引导宾语从句,不直接与or not连用。if意为“如果”,用来引导条件状语从句。
◆in common意为“共同(做)的;共用的;公有的”。
12.And“Every dog has his day”is similar
to the Chinese saying“shi nian he dong,shi nian he xi”.
be similar to意为“与……相似”。
13.Human beings share similar hopes and fears.
human为名词时,意为“人,人类”,也可表示为human being;作形容词,意为“人性的,人类的”。
