Useful Language
- * wish与hope后面带表示愿望内容的宾语从句时，用法不同。hope that表示一般的对于未来的希望，而wish（that）则表明一种多半是事与愿违的或纯属主观的向往或愿望，希望事物与现状不一样。如： I wish I was as tall as you. I wish I hadn't missed that call. 因此在wish后的宾语从句中要用虚拟语气或表示虚拟的时态、情态动词等。 * lay them face down: 动词 lie（说谎），lie（躺下），与lay（放置）的形式变化很容易搞错。表列如下： 原形 意义 过去时 过去分词 现在分词 lie 说谎 lied lied lying lie 躺下 lay lain lying lay 放置 laid laid laying * turn表示“轮流”的意思，有几种用法，请看一些例句： It's my turn now. Your turn is next. Let's do it turn and turn about. We had only one computer, and took turns using it. The two took it in turns to prepare the evening meal. They took turns washing up after dinner. The doctor talked to each patient in turn. The room was used in turn as a kitchen, a store-room, and a livin groom through the years. Tom hit Jerry, and Jerry, in turn, hit Bob, who was the weakest of the three. He was by turns happy and depressed. The boy was so eager that he stepped up to bat out of turn. * 动词marry的常见用法举例如下： Is she going to marry that ugly man for his money? He never married. They married soon afterwards. She's(We're) married now. When are you getting married? They married their daughter to a rich landowner. The judge married them in a simple ceremony in his office. * 表示强调时，such与so的用法很不一样。so用在不带名词的形容词和副词之前，（它后面可以跟 a（n）+单数名词，但仅用于书面体。）如： The children were so pretty. He did it so carelessly that I found many mistakes on each page. We have never seen so horrible an accident. such用于名词前面，如名词前面有形容词时，单数名前要用 such a（n），此外均不可以有冠词、指示代词或物主代词。如： She's such a fool. He listened to us with such sympathy. The children are such dears. Such a house! Such furniture! He was such a poor swimmer that he almost drowned. * 作者用旁敲侧击，以小映大的方法描绘了“大男大女”的恋爱和婚事，从中也使我们看到了两位主人公的优秀素质。但两人在事业与才略方面似有明显的差距，让读者有点放心不下。
