六、本课重要知识点
1.Tired of sleeping on the floor, a young man in Teheran saved up for years to buy a real bed.
德黑兰的一个年轻人由于对睡地板感到厌倦,于是积蓄多年买了一张真正的床。
(1)tired引导的分词短语省略了开头的being,其作用相当于原因状语从句:As he was tired of…。sleeping为动名词,作介词of的宾语。
(2)save up为固定短语,表示“储蓄”、“攒钱”:
I want to get married in one or two years, so I'm trying to save (some money) up.
我想一两年之间内结婚,所以我在设法攒钱。
(3)to在这里用于表示目的,相当于in order to:
I got up early to have a swim.
为了游泳我起了个大早。
2.…he carried the bed on to the roof of his house.
……他便把床搬到了他的屋顶上。
