Lesson 1 A private conversation
课文内容:
Last week I went to the theatre. I had a very good seat. The play was very interesting. I did not enjoy it. A young man and a young woman were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly. I got very angry. I could not hear the actors. I turned round. I looked at the man and the woman angrily. They did not pay any attention. In the end, I could not bear it. I turned round again. ‘I can't hear a word!’ I said angrily.
‘It's none of your business, ’ the young man said rudely. ‘This is a private conversation!’

2 got angry,生气。
3 turn round,转身,也可用turn around。

参考译文:
上星期我去看戏。我的座位很好,戏很有意思,但我却无法欣赏。一青年男子与一青年女子坐在我的身后,大声地说着话。我非常生气,因为我听不见演员在说什么。我回过头去怒视着那一男一女,他们却毫不理会。最后,我忍不住了,又一次回过头去,生气地说:“我一个字也听不见了!”
“不关你的事,”那男的毫不客气地说,“这是私人间的谈话!”

自学导读
week I went to the 。
(1)句首的“Last week”点明叙述的事情发生的时间是上星期。因此整篇课文的时态基本上应是过去时(包括过去进行时),直接引语部分的时态除外。
(2)动词go的原义是离开一个地方去另一个地方,与介词to连用后,常加上主语所要去的目的地来代表主语的动作目的。课文中go to the theatre = go to the theatre to see a play,即去剧场看戏。类似的还有go to the cinema = go to the cinema to see a film(去电影院看电影)。这种表达方式简明扼要。请注意在以下的短语中名词前通常不加冠词:
go to school上学
go to bed上床,睡觉
go to church上教堂,去做礼拜( school, at church;第1册第85课have been to school/church)
a very good seat,座位很好。
seat一般指戏院、汽车等配置的固定座位,也可以抽象地表示“座位”或“位子”的概念:
the front seat of a car汽车的前座
Take a seat, please.
请坐。
play was very interesting. 戏很有意思。
interesting属于现在分词形式的形容词,意思是“使人感兴趣”。
它通常与非人称主语连用或修饰某个事物:
This is an interesting book/idea.
这是一本有趣的书/一个令人感兴趣的主意。
4.…were sitting behind me. They were talking loudly.……坐在我的身后,大声地说着话。
这两句的时态为过去进行时。()
got very angry. 我非常生气。
get在这里有“逐渐变得”的含义,e,是个表示过程的动词,表示状态的变化。而I was very angry则仅表示当时的状态是生气,并不暗示过程。
the end, 最后,终于。
表示一段较长的时间之后或某种努力之后:
She tried hard to finish her homework by hers
