★single adj. 唯一的, 单一的反义词 : double 双倍的【Text】 Postcards always spoil my holidays. Last summer, I went to Italy. I visited museums and sat in public gardens. A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian. Then he lent me a book. I read a few lines, but I did not understand a word. Everyday I thought about postcards. My holidays passed quickly, but I did not send cards to my friends. On the last day I made a big decision. I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards. I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card! 参考译文：明信片总搅得我假日不得安宁. 去年夏天, 我去了意大利. 我参观了博物馆, 还去了公园. 一位好客的服务员教了我几句意大利语, 之后还借给我一本书. 我读了几行, 但一个字也不懂. 我每天都想着明信片的事. 假期过得真快, 可我还没有给我的朋友们寄过一张明信片. 到了最后一天, 我作出了一项重大决定. 我早早起了床, 买来了37张明信片. 我在房间里关了整整一天. 然而竟连一张明信片也没写成!

【课文讲解】 1、Last summer, I went to Italy. last： ① adj. 上一个 last summer里的last表示 “上一个” ② adj. 最后一个，表示“最后一个”时要加冠词the the last day 最后一天 (具体到一天及一天的早中晚都要用on) 2、A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian. Italian[i5tAljEn]于Italy[5itEli] : 注意重读音的位置不同 teach sb. sth. 教某人做某事 He teaches our English.(错) He teaches us English.(对) 语言不可数, 所以要用a little Italian或a few words of Italian I can speak a little English/a few words of English. a few可与复数可数名词连用，表示肯定，含有some，a small number of(一些，少数几个)的意思。 The police would like to ask him a few questions. 警察要问他一些问题。 3、Everyday I thought about postcards. think about/of 考虑 , 思考，指某一段时间一直在想/考虑某事, think of还可指想到 What do you think of? What do you think of TV program last night? What do you think of the weather today? 你觉得天气怎么样? think over 仔细考虑，反复思考 What’s the weather like today? cold, chilly(非常非常冷), freeze I'll freeze.我要冻僵了 4、I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card! spend与表示时间的词或短语连和时，意思为“花(时间)”、“度过” spend+时间+地点 : 在什么地点我花费/度过了多少时间 I spend three hours in the sea. I spend my weekend at my mother's. I spend three hours in the classroom everyday. I spend a lot of time in traffic jam.(交通堵塞) spend还可以表示“花钱” If we spend all the money, we’ll be poor again.
