【Text】

The secretary told me that Mr. Harmsworth would see me. I felt very nervous when I went into his office. He did not look up from his desk when I entered. After I had sat down, he said that business was very bad. He told me that the firm could not afford to pay such large salaries. Twenty people had already left. I knew that my turn had come.

'Mr.Harmsworth,' I said in a weak voice.

'Don't interrupt,' he said.

Then he smiled and told me I would receive an extra thousand pounds a year!

参考译文

秘书告诉我说哈姆斯沃斯先生要见我. 我走进他的办公室, 感到非常紧张. 我进去的时候, 他连头也没抬. 待我坐下后, 他说生意非常不景气. 他还告诉我, 公司支付不起这么庞大的工资开支, 有20个人已经离去. 我知道这次该轮到我了.

“哈姆斯沃斯先生, “我无力地说.

“不要打断我的话, “他说.

然后他微笑了一下告诉我说, 我每年将得到1,000 英镑的额外收入.

【课文讲解】

1、The secretary told me that Mr. Harmsworth would see me.

would在这里不是表示单纯的过去将来时，而是表示“想……”、“要……”的意思：

What would you like to have?

John wouldn’t lend me his bicycle.

2、He did not look up from his desk when I entered.

look up表示原先在埋头干什么，之后抬头看

  He looked up (from his book) when he heard a noise.

look down 往地上看（look up的反义词）

look down upon/on sb.     瞧不起某人

I look down upon my sister.

3、After I had sat down, he said that business was very bad.

Business is very good!     生意好!

4、He told me that the firm could not afford to pay such large salaries.

collect salary     领薪水

pay salary     支付薪水

large一般指东西的数量大

so的后面加形容词或副词；such的后面加名词, 容许在该名词前面加修饰词

5、I knew that my turn had come.

turn      n. 轮流，轮班，（依次轮流时各自的）一次机会

My turn has come.

It is my turn.    轮到我了(口语常用形式)

When his turn came, he couldn’t speak any word.

6、'Mr.Harmsworth,' I said in a weak voice.

in a … voice    用……的声音

in a loud(大声)/low (低声)/weak(强调心里不踏实)/strong(理直气壮) voice

7、Then he smiled and told me I would receive an extra thousand pounds a year!

以下几个词都可表示 “再, 又” 的意思, 注意用法 :

① an extra thousand(作名词看)

数量+extra+名词     再有多少  

On Sundays, I usually get some extra sleep.

Last month, he was paid an extra hundred pounds.

② two others = two other +名词

③ two more

Give me two extra/other/more books.  再给我两本书。

once more: 再一次

④ another three days    另外三天（只有another 的数词在后面）

【Key structures】　

间接引语

把某人所说的话告诉另外一个人时，应该使用间接引语。间接陈述句的时态往往受引述动词的影响。引述陈述句时最常用的动词是say和tell，tell后面必须跟表示人称的间接宾语（tell sb.），而say后面则可跟或不跟to+讲话对象。

1、主从一致 : 主句和从句的时态一致

① 主句的动词为一般现在时, 从句为任意时态

② 主句的动词为一般过去时, 从句为相对应的过去时态（时态倒移）

一般现在时——>　一般过去时 现在进行时——>　过去进行时

现在完成时——>　过去完成时 将来完成时——>　过去将来完成时

一般过去时——>　过去完成时

2、人称变化：主要是第一和第二人称变化

3、只要属于宾语从句, 引导词that可以省略
