Lesson 47 A thirsty ghost嗜酒的鬼魂单元复习

A public house which  was recently bought by Mr. Ian Thompson is up for sale.

He told me that he could not go to sleep one night because he heard a strange noise coming from the bar. ^{bar 为酒吧或酒店中卖酒的柜台}

hear sb. doing sth. ^{听见某人正在做某事}

在一些表示感觉的动词如 see，hear，feel，watch，notice 等之后，往往用“动词+宾语+宾语补足语”这个结构，其宾语补足语既可以是不定式（通常不加 to），也可以是现在分词，两者在意义上区别不大，现在分词表示动作正在发生，不定式则表示动作发生了：

• I heard someone knocking at the door. ^{我听到有人正在敲门。}
• I heard you sing this song yesterday. ^{昨天我听到你唱这支歌。}

The next morning, he found that the doors had been blocked by chairs and the furniture had been moved.

时态顺序

Though Mr.Thompson had turned the lights off before he went to bed, they were on in the morning.

be + on 为形容词 ^{表示“开着的，接通的”，其反义词为 off}

• When he arrived home, he found that all the lights were on/off.
• Is the TV on? I thought I had turned it off. ^{（turn off 关闭）}

He also said that he had found five empty whisky bottles which the ghost must have drunk the night before.

表时间的状语

直接引语 → 间接引语

When I suggested that some villagers must have come in for a free drink, Mr.Thompson shook his head.

The villagers have told him that they will not accept the pub even if he gives it away.

even if 即使 ^{引导的让步状语从句含有很强的假定性}

• I won’t have dinner with him even if he pays for it.

give away ^{捐献，免费的送，赠送}

• He gave all his books away to the library.
