1c-Make conversations

A: I don’t think sixteen-year-olds should be allowed to drive.
B: I agree. They aren’t serious enough.

A:我认为不应该允许16岁的青少年开车。
B:我同意,他们还不够认真。

否定前移:当主语是第一人称(I/we)并且是一般现在时,且主句谓语动词时用来表示想法、观点、信念、推测等心理活动的词时,其后的宾语从句若是否定句,否定词要前移到主句上。主句否定,弱化断言,更礼貌/含蓄;从句否定,显得更直接甚至突兀。
think, believe, suppose, imagine, reckon, guess, expect, figure, feel(“觉得/认为”意义)

  • I don’t think he will come today.
  • We don’t believe this plan is practical.
  • I don’t suppose she knows the truth.
  • I don’t imagine they will agree with us.
  • We don’t expect the rain to stop soon.

I don’t think + sb. should be allowed to do sth. 我认为不应该允许某人做某事

  • I don’t think students should be allowed to use mobile phones in class.
  • I don’t think people should be allowed to smoke in public parks.
  • I don’t think young kids should be allowed to watch violent movies.
  • I don’t think visitors should be allowed to take photos in this museum.

enough的基本用法
(1) 修饰名词 enough + 名词 → “足够的” ;
(2) 修饰形容词/副词形容词/副词 + enough → “足够……的 / ……得足够”;

为什么 enough 放在形容词/副词之后固定语序现象,核心意思是“达到(形容词/副词所描述的)某种足够程度的”,后置的 enough 更靠近它所限定的 “结果或目的”(如 to swim, to win),使句子逻辑更连贯。

  • I have ​enough money.
  • He runs fast enough to win the race.
  • The water is warm enough to swim.

2d-Role-play the conversation

Sandy:​​ I’m really excited about seeing the famous paintings by Picasso.
Wu Lan:​​ Me, too! I’m glad Mr. Smith chose the art museum for our school trip this year.
Sandy:​​ I’m going to bring my new camera to take lots of photos!
Wu Lan:​​ Oh, no. Mr. Smith says we must not take photos. It’s not allowed in the museum.
Sandy:​That’s too bad! Do you think we may be allowed to take photos if we don’t use a flash?
Wu Lan:​​ Hmm… I think they just want to protect the paintings. So if you don’t use a flash, then it may be OK.
Sandy:​​ Yeah. I think we should be allowed to do that. I’ll bring my camera anyway.

参考译文

桑迪:我真的很期待能看到毕加索的那些名画。
吴兰:我也是!真高兴史密斯先生今年选了美术馆作为我们的学校旅行地点。
桑迪:我打算带上我的新相机,拍好多照片!
吴兰:哦,不行。史密斯先生说我们不允许拍照的。美术馆里不让拍。
桑迪:太糟糕了!那你觉得如果我们不用闪光灯的话,会不会被允许拍照呢?
吴兰:嗯…… 我觉得他们只是想保护这些画作。所以如果你不用闪光灯的话,或许是可以的。
桑迪:是啊。我觉得我们应该被允许那样做。不管怎样,我还是会带上相机的。

Key Words

be/get/become excited about (doing) sth. 对(做)某事感到兴奋

  • The children are excited about the upcoming summer vacation.
  • We got excited about the news that we would have a school trip.
  • They became excited about the idea of starting a book club.
  • We get excited about hiking in the mountains every weekend.
  • They became excited about visiting the science museum next week.

Key Structures

口语中为了简洁自然,常会省略句子的 “冗余成分”,“depends which movie” 本质是 主句 + 宾语从句 的省略形式,完整表达应为:
It depends on which movie (it is/we are going to watch).

  • depend” 本身是 不及物动词(不能直接接宾语),必须搭配介词 “on/upon” 构成短语,才能接 “依赖 / 取决于的对象”
  • Whether we go out depends on the weather.
  • 完整句中的 “It depends on…” 用 “It” 作形式主语,是因为 “取决于……” 这个概念本身没有具体的 “主语”,用 “It” 填充主语位置,符合英语 “句子必须有主语” 的语法规则,属于 “形式主语的固定用法”。
