四 Notes on the text & 课文注释
[1] Do you have any shoes like these? 像这样的鞋你们有吗?
句子中的like these是介词短语作定语,修饰 shoes,意思是“像这样的鞋子”。
[2] We don"t have any.
any后面省略了black shoes。
[3] ago放在表示时间长度的短语的后面,常常与表示一般过去时的动词连用。举例:a month ago (一个月之前)
[4] in fashion 流行的,时髦的;I’m afraid ...我恐怕...。
[5] What size? 什么尺码的?
省略句,后面省略do you want。文章中的 What colour? 也是。 what size通常用来询问服装、鞋子、手套等的尺寸,即什么号码:
举例:What size do you wear? 你穿几码的?
[6] They are very uncomfortable.的确很不舒适。
句子中的are表示强调,应重读。这里表明了售货员对女士所说的话的反感和愤怒。
