Language points
Attention:The following points are not covered by the video. It is better for you to watch the video or listen to the MP3 first and try to take notes on your own. Then you may check here to get more details.
1.City born and city bred. I have always regarded the country as something you look at through a train window, or something you occasional visit during the weekend.
City born and city bred 是两个由"名词+过去分词"构成的合成词, 做形容词使用. 此作原因状语.
regards...as 把...视为. 相当: think of ...as / refer to ...as
you look at... & you occasionally visit... 为定语从句,分别修饰前面的 something. 在something与两个定语从句间分别省略了关系连词 that.
