Lesson 22 A glass envelope 玻璃信封

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

How did Jane receive a letter from a stranger?

My daughter, Jane, never dreamed of receiving a letter from a girl of her own age in Holland. Last year, we were travelling across the Channel and Jane put a piece of paper with her name and address on it into a bottle. She threw the bottle into the sea. She never thought of it again, but ten months later, she received a letter from a girl in Holland. Both girls write to each other regularly now. However, they have decided to use the post office. Letters will cost a little more, but they will certainly travel faster.

参考译文

我的女儿简从未想过会接到荷兰一位同龄姑娘的来信. 去年, 当我们横渡英吉利海峡时, 简把写有她姓名和住址的一张纸条装进了一只瓶子, 又将瓶子扔进了大海. 此后她就再没去想那只瓶子. 但10个月以后, 她收到了荷兰一位姑娘的来信. 现在这两位姑娘定期通信了. 然而她们还是决定利用邮局. 这样会稍微多花点钱, 但肯定是快得多了.

【课文讲解】

同位语　My daughter　 Jane

of one's own age : He is boy of my own age.

with　放在名词后面做定语

I have a bag with books in it.(“in it” 不能省略)

with 放在句子后面做状语用

think of : 考虑　　　dream of : 梦想

write to : 给某人写信　　write (a letter) to me

each other : 相互-往往强调两者之间的相互 ([] 注意连读)

one another : 强调三或三者以上的相互

will cost will travel

一旦用cost,主语一定是物

something cost somebody

more : 即可做形容词, 又可做代词 : give me more 再给我一点

文中的 “more” 为代词 = more money

a little　可以修饰比较级 : 稍微

much more : 多得多

It's a little hotter. It's much hotter.

It's expensive. That is more expensive.

That is a little more expensive.

That is much more expensive.

But they will certainly travel faster.

也可 : but they will certainly travel much faster.

much faster 快的多
