Tina felt sorry for Pat; she seemed so lonely.

　　Tina为Pat感到难过，她看起来太孤单了。

　　另外，be sorry to...句型和feel sorry类似，后面常跟动词原形。比如，同样是表达"为你母亲感到难过"的意思，用两种句式分别说出来就是：

　　I feel sorry for your mother．我为你妈妈感到难过。

　　I＇m sorry to hear that your mother is ill．听到你妈妈生病了我很难过。

　　在中世纪的欧洲，（In the European Middle Ages）允许人们将痰吐在桌子底下，（it was permitted to spit under the table）但决不可以将痰"远射"到桌子的另一边；（but never across it）站着的时候，可以把痰吐在地上，（one could spit on the ground）并立即用脚蹭了。（and immediately rub out the sputum with one's foot）在19世纪的工厂、医院候诊室和理发馆，人们容忍随地吐痰，（in 19th-century factories, hospital waiting rooms and barber shops was tolerated）"你让他们把痰吐到哪儿呢？（Where do you want them to spit?）吐到他们的衣服兜里吗？"这就是人们当时的态度。

　　你看，西方国家也有他们的吐痰历史，（the West has its own history of spitting）他们付出了时间，付出了努力，才根除了这一陋习。（which it took time and effort to eradicate）如果说西方人能够与这种陋习决裂，（if Westerners were able to break themselves of the habit）难道中国人就不能？（why not the Chinese）

　　今天，我们来学一句表达"偷偷摸摸地"意思的句型，on the sly。其中，sly意思是"狡猾的、狡诈的"意思，但放在sly smile/look中，意思稍有不同，比如：

　　A slow sly smile was creeping around the corners of his mouth.

　　他的嘴角慢慢露出了诡秘的微笑。

　　They exchanged sly looks and smiles.

　　他们交换会意的眼色和微笑。

　　接着看On the sly，它的英文解释是：secretly, especially when you are doing something that you should not do，需要注意的是，它是非正式使用的短语，只适合在口语或朋友之中使用。来看几个例子：

　　She is having an affair with her Japanese teacher on the sly.

　　她和她的日文老师偷偷有了恋情。

　　He's been drinking whiskey on the sly for thirty years.

　　他暗中偷喝威士忌酒已有三十年了。

　　When she thought no one was looking she opened the cupboard and took a few sweets on the sly.

　　当她觉得没人看见时,她打开壁橱偷偷拿了几块糖。
