課文詳注 Further notes on the text
1．What's Ron Marston like, Pauline? 波琳，朗·馬斯頓是怎樣一個人？
What is sb. like? 這一句式可用來詢問某人的外貌或品行。就本課的具體情況而言，波琳的回答更多地是指馬斯頓的品行如何。
2．He telephoned me four times yesterday… 他昨天給我打了4次電話……
four times, 4次。 time在英語中作不可數(shù)名詞時表示“時間”；作可數(shù)名詞時表示“次數(shù)”。請注意英語中次數(shù)的表示法：
once 1次
twice 兩次
three times 3次
3次或 3次以上通常都用基數(shù)詞 times表示：
five times 5次
thirty times 30次
3． the day before yesterday, 前天。
4．a(chǎn)nswer the telephone, 接電話。
口語中也常用 answer the phone。類似的短語如：
answer the door／doorbell 應(yīng)聲開門
answer a letter 回信
5．She can't speak to you now! 她現(xiàn)在不能同你講話！
speak to sb. 意為“與某人說話”。例如打電話時可以說：
May I speak to Pauline, please? 請讓波琳接電話好嗎？
I' d like to speak to Pauline, please. 我想請波琳聽電話。
6．This is Pauline's mother. 我是波琳的母親。
This is…是英美人打電話時表示“我是……”的句式，而不說I'm…。相關(guān)的電話用語如：
This is Mary speaking. 我是瑪麗。
This is Edward calling from London. 我是愛德華，現(xiàn)正在倫敦給你打電話。
語法 Grammar in use
一般過去時（2）
（請參見 Lessons 67～68語法部分。）
be動詞以外的動詞在一般過去時中一般有兩種形式。規(guī)則動詞一般是在動詞后面加-ed，如 answered；以-e結(jié)尾的規(guī)則動詞加-d，如 telephoned, arrived。另一部分動詞的過去式拼寫不規(guī)則，因此稱為不規(guī)則動詞，如：say----said, do----did。
用一般過去時的句子中常常有表示過去某一時刻的時間狀語，如本課中的 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）。
