雅思基本功训练：过去将来时

　　Part I：单词与短语

　　secretary n.秘书;harm n.&vt.伤害，损害;worth adj.&n.值得的，值;nervous adj.紧张的;look up from one’s desk(动词短语)从桌案上抬起头来;enter vt.进入;afford vt.支付得起;in a weak voice 声音很低地;interrupt vt.打断;receive vt.收到;extra adj.额外的

　　Part II：语法学习

　　1.过去将来时复习

　　示例1：The secretary told me that Mr. Harmsworth would see me.(从told me来看，see我是将来的事情，也就是从过去看将来，自然要用过去将来时)

　　示例2：Then he smiled and told me I would receive an extra thousand pounds a year!(先told，再收到钱，所以，相对于told来讲，receive就是将来的事情，故用过去将来时)

　　2.宾语从句

　　当宾语无法用一个单词来表示所有意思的时候，就必须要凭借一个句子来表达，那么这个句子就是宾语从句，也就是出现在3的位置上的句子。

　　示例1：The secretary told me that Mr. Harmsworth would see me.(划线部分就是told me的主要内容，本身就是一个句子，所以是宾语从句)

　　示例2：He said that business was very bad.(划线部分是said的内容)

　　示例3：He told me that the firm could not afford to pay such large salaries.(划线部分作为一个句子，是told me的具体内容)

　　示例4：I knew that my turn had come.(knew的内容就是划线部分)

　　示例5：Then he told me that I would receive an extra thousand pounds a year.(told me的具体内容就是划线的句子)

　　3.状语从句

　　关于状语从句，我们前面已经讲过了。需要提醒大家的是：当一个句子从简单的状语过渡到状语从句时，整个句子的复杂程度就提升了。

　　示例1：I felt very nervous when I entered.(由when引导)

　　示例2：After I had sat down, he said that business was very bad.(由after引导)

　　An Unusual Cat

　　My aunt Alice had a black cat named Sally and she thought it was wonderful. Sally did whatever Alice was doing. When she washed herself, the cat washed itself; when she looked at herself in the mirror, it looked at itself in the same mirror; if she talked to herself, the cat opened its mouth just like some one talking to herself. This gave Alice an idea. She decided to try to teach Sally to talk. She thought, "I'll give Sally the same food as I have myself and I'm sure that will help her to speak." And very soon, the cat was sitting on a chair at the table and was eating bread and butter, roast potatoes and Christmas pudding, and was drinking tea with sugar in it. One day I went to see Aunt Alice and there was Sally. She was drinking coffee and was smoking a cigarette.

　　Sally was certainly enjoying herself. In fact, I think they were both enjoying themselves, but still she didn't speak. Then Alice had another idea. She had an old parrot(鹦鹉) that was always talking. It talked to itself, it talked to Alice, and it talked to Sally. Alice was getting tired of this everlasting(永无休止的) talk, so she thought to herself, "If Sally eats the parrot, I'm sure it can help talking." So she killed the parrot, cooked it in butter and gave it, with fried potatoes and boiled(煮的) cabbage(卷心菜), to Sally.

　　Sally sat at the table and helped herself, very politely with a knife and fork, to the roast(烤) parrot, the fried potatoes and the cabbage, and she finished every bit of it. Then, suddenly she turned to Aunt Alice and shouted "Look out!" Aunt Alice was looking at her in such astonish?ment(惊讶) that she hardly noticed what she said and the next moment, a piece of the ceiling(天花板) fell down on her head. Sally said: "She has spent five years getting me to talk and then when I speak, the fool doesn't listen."
