【Text】

We have just moved into a new house and I have been working hard all morning. I have been trying to get my new room in order. This has not been easy because I own over a thousand books. To make matters worse, the room is rather small, so I have temporarily put my books on the floor. At the moment, they cover every inch of floor space and I actually have to walk on them to get in or out of the room. A short while ago, my sister helped me to carry one of my old bookcases up the stairs. She went into my room and got a big surprise when she saw all those books on the floor. 'This is the prettiest carpet I have ever seen,' she said. She gazed at it for some time then added, 'You don't need bookcases at all. You can sit here in your spare time and read the carpet!'

参考译文

我们刚刚搬进一所新房子, 我辛辛苦苦地干了整整一个上午. 我试图把我的新房间收拾整齐, 但这并不容易, 因为我有1,000多本书. 更糟糕的是房间还非常小, 所以我暂时把书放在了地板上. 这会儿, 书把地板的每一点空隙都占据了, 我实际上是踩着这些书进出房间的. 几分钟前, 我妹妹帮我把一个旧书橱抬上了楼. 她走进我的房间, 当她看到地板上的那些书时, 大吃一惊. “这是我见过的最漂亮的地毯,” 她说. 她盯着 “地毯” 看了一会儿, 又说 : “你根本用不着书橱, 空闲时你可以坐在这儿读地毯!”

【课文讲解】

1、We have just moved into a new house and I have been working hard all morning.

现在完成进行时用来强调动作在某一段时间内一直在进行，而且动作有现在的结果。现在完成时表示在漫长地时间段，过去发生的, 还一定要对现在产生影响；在过去发生的动作, 一直延续到现在，现在完成时, 动词一定是延续性动词

It has rained for half day.

2、I have been trying to get my new room in order.

get sth. in order 使……有秩序，把……整理好(get 使役动词)

in order 整齐，井然有序，有秩序, 有次序

4、To make matters worse, the room is rather small, so I have temporarily put my books on the floor.

to make matters worse 更糟糕的是……，插入语

rather adj. 相当的

5、At the moment, they cover every inch of floor space and I actually have to walk on them to get in or out of the room.

at the moment ＝ now 现在，此刻，目前

every inch 每一英寸(夸张)

7、'This is the prettiest carpet I have ever seen,' she said.

“I have ever seen” 做定语从句出现, 是最高级的标志

8、She gazed at it for some time then added, 'You don't need bookcases at all. You can sit here in your spare time and read the carpet!'

gazed at 对……向往, 羡慕

not at all 完全不，起强调作用
