I. 词汇
1. receive"收到,接到,领受"。
如:We've received a lot of complaints about the new radio programme..(我们收到了不少关于新广播节目的投诉。)
它还可表示"接待,款待"
如:She only receives guests on Monday afternoons.(她只在每星期一下午会客。)
2. accept:(尤指情愿地)收受,接受(别人给的东西)。
如:The police aren't allowed to accept rewards.(警察是禁止接受酬谢金的。)
注意:receive 和accept 的区别
receive 是客观上收到,而accept是主观上接受。如:
I received his invitation but did not accept it. (我收到了他的请帖,但并没有接受他的邀请。)
3. invite:及物动词,意为"邀请"。它常与to连用
如:We invited all our relatives (to the wedding). (我们邀请了所有的亲戚来参加婚礼。)
还可构成invite +object +to do 句型

4. arrive:是一个不及物动词,意为"到达,抵达(目的地)"。
如:Shall we start now, or shall we wait for the others to arrive?(我们现在就开始,还是等其他人都来齐了?)
arrive 可与介词in, at 搭配,到达的地方范围较大时多用arrive in;地方较小时多用arrive at。如 :
We arrived in Paris(France, Europe).(我们到达巴黎(法国、欧洲))。
We arrived at the station(my native town, the bridge). (我们到达车站(我的家乡、那座桥))。
对比:reach, 也是"到达"的意思,及物动词,后面直接跟表示地点的词,如:
He reached London.
5. till:可作介词、连词,意为"直到"。
如:I will keep it for you till Monday/ you come back..(我将替你把这保存到星期一/你回来。)

They've postponed the meeting till Wednesday.(他们把这次会议推迟到星期三举行。)
II. 课文重点难点:
1. ........., he thanked everyone for bringing him a present.(......他感谢大家为他送来礼物。)
本句中的thank sb. for意为 "因某事而感谢某人",其后跟名词或动词-ing形式.如:
Thank you for your help.
Thank you for helping me.(感谢你对我的帮助。)
动词bring的后面可接名词、副词、介词短语、不定式to be、动词的-ing形式等。如:

而must 意为"必须",强调主观看法,只有现在时形式;若要表示"不必"则用needn't或don't have to。 mustn't表示"禁止,不准"。如:
