Notes on the text 课文注释
1 He telephoned me four times yesterday. 他昨天给我打了4次电话。“是”动词以外的动词在过去时中一般有两种形式。规则动词一般是在动词后面加-ed,如answer/answered;以-e结尾的规则动词加-d,如telephone/telephoned,arrive/arrived。另一部分动词的过去式拼写不规则,因此称为不规则动词,如say/said,do/did。从本课开始,单词表中的不规则动词除列出原形外,还将在括弧中列出过去式的拼写和读音。
2 一般过去时的句子中常常有表示过去某一时刻的时间状语,如本课中的yesterday(昨天),the day before yesterday(前天),yesterday morning(昨天上午),yesterday afternoon(昨天下午),yesterday evening(昨天晚上),last night(昨夜)。
