Lesson 26 The best art critics 最佳藝術(shù)評論家
First listen and then answer the question.聽錄音, 然后回答以下問題.
Who is the student's best critic?
I am an art student and I paint a lot of pictures. Many people pretend that they understand modern art. They always tell you what a picture is 'about'. Of course, many pictures are not 'about' anything. They are just pretty patterns. We like them in the same way that we like pretty curtain material. I think that young children often appreciate modern pictures better than anyone else. They notice more. My sister is only seven, but she always tells me whether my pictures are good or not. She came into my room yesterday.
'What are you doing?' she asked.
'I'm hanging this picture on the wall,' I answered. 'It's a new one. Do you like it?'
She looked at it critically for a moment. 'It's all right,' she said, 'but isn't it upside down?'
I looked at it again. She was right! It was!
參考譯文
我是個(gè)學(xué)藝術(shù)的學(xué)生, 畫了很多畫. 有很多人裝成很懂現(xiàn)代藝術(shù)的樣子, 總是告訴你一幅畫的 “意思” 是什么. 當(dāng)然, 有很多畫是什么 “意思” 也沒有的. 它們就是些好看的圖案, 我們喜愛它們就像我們喜歡漂亮的窗簾布一樣. 我覺得小孩子們往往比任何人都更能欣賞現(xiàn)代繪畫, 他們觀察到的東西更多. 我的妹妹只有7歲, 但她總能說出我的畫是好還是壞. 昨天她到我房里來了.

but notice more.
not only...but...
連接的是兩組謂語動詞
7. Had he hung it upside down, or had he hung it the right way up? Did she notice this immediately or not?(and)

【Multiple choice questions】多項(xiàng)選擇題
4 What is it about? Tell me ______ .
a.what is it about b.what it is about c.what about it is d.what about is it
考特殊疑問句的間接引語是什么
陳述句的間接引語以that引導(dǎo)
What time is it?
How old are you?
變成以 He asked me . 形式
He asked me what time it was.
He asked me how old I was.
疑問句的直接引語變間接引語要注意
⑴ 特殊疑問句由特殊疑問詞引導(dǎo)
⑵ 時(shí)態(tài).
主句的謂語動詞是過去時(shí)時(shí), 其從句的謂語動詞應(yīng)為相對應(yīng)的時(shí)態(tài).
⑶ 疑問句變成間接引語時(shí), 要變成陳述句語序.
陳述句語序 : 主語在動詞前邊.
⑷ 人稱的變化
Is it nine o'clock? /He asked me.
if/whether 是否
He asked me if/whether it was nine o'clock.
tell me 要求間接引語
Tell me what it is about.
注意使用陳述句語序.
What about 中about 是介詞, 后接名詞或動詞的ing形式, 不接句子
What about it?
Tell me后要求陳述句語序
5 She tells me ______ my pictures are good or not.
a.weather b.that c.if d.unless
5.沒有一個(gè)答案是對的
主句為一般現(xiàn)在時(shí), 從句可以為任意形式
or not是否, that表示肯定
直接引語變間接引語的連接詞有3種 :
⑴陳述句中的that;
⑵一般疑問句中的if/whether;
⑶特殊疑問句中的特殊疑問詞
if不可以與or not 連用
unless conj 除外, 如果不(不能用于間接引語連接)
You will fail unless you work harder.你如果不更加努力工作, 你將失敗.

a.a new b.one new c.new one d.a new one
