Lesson 5 No wrong numbers 无错号之虞

First listen and then answer the question.听录音, 然后回答以下问题.

What does'No wrong numbers'mean?

Mr.James Scott has a garage in Silbury and now he has just bought another garage in Pinhurst. Pinhurst is only five miles from Silbury, but Mr. Scott cannot get a telephone for his new garage, so he has just bought twelve pigeons. Yesterday, a pigeon carried the first message from Pinhurst to Silbury. The bird covered the distance in three minutes. Up to now, Mr.Scott has sent a great many requests for spare parts and other urgent messages from one garage to the other. In this way, he has begun his own private 'telephone' service.

【Multiple choice questions】多项选择题

4 Mr. Scott cannot get a telephone for his garage. ______ he has just bought twelve pigeons.

a.That's so b.That's why c.Because d.For

so表示前面是原因, 后面是结果

That's why :那就是为什么, 前者是原因

That's why+从句 : 那就是......原因, 前者是原因, 后者why后面是结果

I was caught in the traffic jam.That's why I was late.

be动词后面是表语, 后面的从句是表语从句

That's后面的表语从句常常用特殊疑问词引导, 再加一个句子

That's when we can start class.

That's where we will have a meeting.

That's how I get to school.

8 Mr. Scott has a garage in Silbury. His ______ garage is in Pinhurst.

a.another b.other c.else d.different

(8)......one...the other...

another:另外一个

another=an+other

an/a是冠词

his/my/your是形容词性物主代词

my mother's是名词所有格

在语法上, 以上三个词是不能同时并存的, 一般要用只能用其中一个

a bag/my bag

his,形容词物主代词, another=an+other

another强调的是剩下的还有好几个当中的一个, 强调的是有三个以上

other:其它的, 加单数就表示一个, his取代the的位置

语法的范围正在放宽松, his another 也对, 但不太好

else:其他的

1、疑问代词, who else,what else can I do for you?

2、anyone else,anything else?不定代词

else会放在被修饰词的后面, 会修饰两种词, 疑问词和不定代词

different:不同的
