One-way street 就是单行道。 尤其在Downtown地区,以亚特兰大和纽奥良为例,其复杂的程度可以用进的去,出不来来形容,实在不是个愉快的开车经验。
2.You will stay on the street for a while until you hit the first traffic light.你会走一会儿,直到你遇到第一个红绿灯。
有一次我开车老美坐我旁边,他帮我指路就是这么说的。 Stay for a while 通常指五到十分钟的时间,不会太久。 遇见某样东西,可以用 hit 这个字,如 hit the traffic light,hit the stop sign 等等。 而 traffic light 也有人说成 light,或 stoplight。
3.Then take a left. 向左转。
向左转可以说成 turn left,take a left 或是 Make a left。 有时光讲 take a left 不明确,你可以加上路名,明确地告诉人家要转哪一条路,例如 Take a left into Hemphill Ave。 或是 Take a left onto Hemphill Ave。
4.It will be Hemphill Ave. It’s two-lane traffic. 那就会是 Hemphill Ave,它是一条双线道。
指路的时候如果能够说出街道名称是最好,所以通常我会把转到哪一条路的路名也指出来。 至于是几线道一般指路的时候则比较不会提及。 双线道是指来去各一个车道共二线道而言,四线道就是 four-lane traffic。 像亚特兰大的 Interstate Highway 有些地方都是十二线道,那就是 twelve-lane traffice 够惊人吧。
5.Come down Hemphill Ave about five blocks. 由 Hemphill 街往下走约五个 blocks。
英文这个部份跟中文有异曲同工之妙喔。 我们会习惯地说,往“下”走,英文也会说come "down"或是"get down",这里如果只说 Come Hemphill Ave。 听来是不是怪怪的? 至于 block 指的是一块一块的建筑,外国人在指路时很喜欢用 block 作为计量的单位。
6.You will see a BP gas station on your left. 在你的左手边你会看到一座BP加油站。
指路的时候除了路名之外,明显的地标也是有帮助的。 通常你可以指出一些明显的建筑物或是加油站来帮助对方。 加油站的英文是 gas station,有时会简称 station。
7.Keep going 50 yards before you come to a fork road. 继续走50码,直到你走到一个三叉路口。
继续往下走可以用 keep going 这个字,或是 continue straight 或是 keep straight 也很常用。 Fork road 就是我们说的三叉路口。 那如果是丁字路口要怎么说? 你可以说,This road will dead end into 10th Street。 就可以表达出丁字路口的意思了。
8.Make a right,pass two stop signs and you will run into a Wal Mart. 向右转,经过二个 Stop sign,你就会遇到 Wal Mart。
有一次我去 Ohio,由于事先的准备不够,以致于从头迷路到最后。 有一次有一个老黑跟我报路用的就是 You’ll run into it! 意思就是,我会遇到的。 他们也喜欢这么说,You can’t miss it! 就是说,你绝不会错过的。
9.The post office is just right across the street of it. 邮局就在 Wal Mart的正对面。
个人觉的 Right across the street of it 是个很重要的片语,加上"right" across 表示出“正”对面的意思。还有一个很常用的就是在什么什么的旁边,这个要用 The office isnext to it。 It 代表之前已经提过的 Wal Mart,如果之前没有提及,这里也可以直接说成,across the street of Wal Mart。
10.Mr.Yang’s house is behind the post office. 杨先生的房子就在邮局后面。
有一次也是有一个老美路我问路,由于那个地方不是很远,我就用手指这那里说,It’s over there。 可是事实上那里是被一栋建筑物给挡住了,所以老美就反问我,Behind this building? 所以我就知道我应该说成 It’s behind this building 会来得比较好些。
一、形容词:用来说明或修饰名词、代词的词称为形容词。
1、形容词的句法作用:作句子中名词的定语、句子的表语以及宾语补足语。
2、形容词在句子中的位置:
1)、在句子中的位置以及作用
⑴作定语时放在名词的前面,且音节少的词放在音节多的词之前。如:a big yellow wooden wheel(一个黄色的大木轮)
⑵作表语时放在连系动词之后。如:The price sounds reasonable.(这个价格听起来算是合理)

2) 、多个形容词修饰同一个名词的顺序:
二、副词
1、副词:用来说明事情发生的时间、地点、原因、方式等含义或说明其它形容词或副词程度的词叫做副词。
2、副词的分类(见下表):
3、副词在句子中的位置以及作用:
(1)作状语
1.时间副词:一般放在句首或句尾,注意,early、late、before、later、yet等一般放在句尾,already、just一般放在动词的前面。如:We will visit the Great Wall tomorrow.(我们明天要去参观长城) / They have already been to the UK twice.(他们去过英王国两次) / Soon the lost boy found his way back home.(不久迷路的孩子找到了回家的路)

4.程度副词:修饰动词时,放在动词之前;修饰形容词或副词时,放在形容词或副词之前。但注意,enough总是放在被修饰的形容词或动词的后面;only位置比较灵活,总是放在被修饰的词的前面。如:I nearly forgot all about it if he did not tell me again.(如果他不再次告诉我,我几乎把那事全忘了) / It was so strange that I could hardly believe my ears.(它那么奇怪一直我都不能相信我的耳朵) / She got to the station early enough to catch the first bus.(她早早地赶到车站赶上了首班车)
5.频度副词:一般放在be动词之后或者助动词与主要动词之间,但sometimes、often等还可以放在句首或句尾,usually可放在句首,once可放在句尾,twice、three times等一般放在句尾。如:Sometimes I get up early.(我有时起得早)/ The workers usually have lunch at the factory.(工人们通常在厂里吃午饭) / Take this medicine twice a day.(这种药一天吃两次)

[注意] “动词+副词”的宾语如果是代词,则该副词应该放在代词之后。如:He wrote down the word.(他写下了那个词。)→He wrote it down.(他把它写了下来。)
==形容词变副词的规律
a.一般的形容词在结尾加ly变为副词。例如:careful-carefully
b.以元音加e结尾的单词要去e在加ly。例如:true-truly
c.辅音加y结尾的单词去y变i在加ly。例如:angry-angrily
d.单音节y结尾直接加ly。例如:shy-shyly
e.以le结尾的单词直接将e变为y。例如:terrible-terribly
f.形容词、副词同形:hard, fast, friendly, late, early, lovely, long。这部分请同学们注意,其中很多单词加ly之后就变成其他意思的单词了。例如:hardly就变成“几乎不”的意思,是小学阶段五大隐形否定词(few,little, never, seldom, hardly)之一。
三、形容词副词的原级、比较级和最高级
1、分类:形容词和副词有原级、比较级和最高级三级。
原级变为比较级和最高级有规则变化和不规则变化两种。
2、规则变化:
(1)单音节和部分双音节形容词和副词,在原级的后面加上er,est构成比较级和最高级。
a)直接加er,est:
b)以重读闭音节结尾的,要双写最后一个辅音字母,后加er,est:
c)以辅音字母+y结尾的,先把y改为i再加上er,est:
(2)两个音节或两个以上的音节的,在原级前加more/most.
3、不规则变化:
4、形容词和副词的原级、比较级和最高级的用法:
(1)讲述某人/物自身的情况时,用原级。基本句型是:
主语(sb./sth) + 谓语动词 + (very/too/so/quite/rather…) + 形容词/副词原级 +….
如:He is very old now.(他现在很老了) / They ran quite fast.(它们跑得相当快) / The weather looks rather bad.(天气看上去相当糟) / I am so happy!(我是如此的快乐)
☆表示两者之间没有差别时,使用句型:
主语(第一个人物) + 谓语动词 + as + 形容词/副词原级 + as + 第二个人物 +….
如:He is as excited as his younger sister.(他和他妹妹一样兴奋)/ Lily rode her bike as slowly as an old lady.(莉莉骑车像老太太一样慢)/ They picked as many apples as the farmers (did).(他们摘的苹果和农民一样多)
☆表示第一个人比不上第二个人时,使用句型:主语(第一个人物) + 谓语动词(否定式) + as / so + 形容词/副词原级 + as + 第二个人物+….
如:He is not so / as excited as his younger sister.(他没他妹妹那么兴奋) / Lily did not ride her bike so / as slowly as an old lady. (莉莉骑车不像老太太那样慢) / They didn’t pick so / as many apples as the farmers (did). (他们摘的苹果不如农民多)
(2) 讲述两者有差异,第一个人物超过第二个人物时,用比较级。基本句型:
主语(‘A’)+谓语动词+(much/a little/even/still)+形容词/副词比较级+than+第二个人物(‘B’)+….
如:A modern train is much faster than a car.(现代的火车比轿车快多了) / This book didn’t cost me more than that one.(这本书花费我的钱不比那本多)
讲述两者有差异,第一个人物不及第二个人物时,用比较级。句型是:
主语(‘A’) + 谓语动词 + less+ (多音节形/副)比较级 + than + 第二个人物(‘B’) +….
如:I think English is less difficult than maths.(我认为英语不比数学难)/ Do you think it less important to learn a foreign language?(你认为学外语不那么重要吗?)
(3)讲述某人/物是一群之中最突出的一个时,用最高级。句型是:
主语(sb./sth) + 谓语动词 +(the) +形容词/副词最高级 +in / of ….
如:The Changjiang River is the longest in China.(长江是中国最长的河流) / He jumped (the) highest of the three (boys).(三个男生中他跳得最高)
5、关于比较等级的重要注释:
1、如果动词是及物或不及物动词,则后面用副词;如果后面是连系动词,则后面用形容词。如:This car is the fastest of the four.(形容词)(这辆汽车是四辆之中最快的)/ This car runs (the) fastest of the four.(副词)(这辆汽车是四辆之中跑得最快的)
2、“比较级+and+比较级”表示“越来越……”。如:The weather is getting warmer and warmer.(天越来越温暖了)
3、“the+比较级…,the+比较级…”表示“越…就越…”。如:The more trees we plant,the better it will be.(我们栽的树越多,情况就会越好)/ The harder you try,the greater your progress is.(你越是努力,进步就越大)
4、一般的形容词或副词的比较级前面可以加much/a little/even/still,而表示数量的more之前还可以加some/ any/ no/ one/ two/ many/ several/ a lot等词。如:It is much colder today than yesterday.(今天比昨天冷多了)/ Would you like some more coffee?(你还要些咖啡吗?)/He did not eat any more.(他没有再吃)
5、more than / less than分别可以理解为“多于/少于”,相当于副词,more than=over; less than=under.如:I lived in New York for more than four months.(我在纽约生活了四个多月)
6、“one of the +最高级+名词(复数)”整个短语为单数含义,谓语要用单数形式。如:One of the oldest houses has been burnt in a fire.(最古老的一幢房子在一场大火中被烧毁了)
7、“Which / Who+动词+形/副,□,□or□?”句型中,如果有两个选项,形/副用比较级,如果有三个选项,形/副用最高级。如:Who has more books, Lin Tao or Han Mei?(林涛和韩梅谁的书最多?)/ Which is the heaviest,a pig,a horse or an elephant?(猪、马、象哪个最重?)
8、上下文中含有both/either/neither/two/twins等表示两个事物的词时,用比较级,而且往往还要加the;含有all/none/no one/ every 等表示三个或三个以上事物时,用最高级。如: --Do you like the smaller one?—Neither.(小一点的那个你喜欢吗?一个都不喜欢)/ --Which do you like best? –All of them!(你最喜欢哪个?全部。)
