★Text
Mad or not?
Aeroplanes are slowly driving me mad.I live near an airport and passing planes can be heard night and day.The airport was built years ago,but for some reason it could not be used then.Last year,however,it came into use.Over a hundred people must have been driven away from their homes by the noise.I am one of the few people left.Sometimes I think this house will be knocked down by a passing plane.I have been offered a large sum of money to go away,but I am determined to stay here.Everybody says I must be mad and they are probably right.
☆or not:在疑问句的后面表示是还是不是，选择概念
mad or not=mad or not mad
☆drive sb mad:逼某人发疯
☆night and day:日日夜夜
☆passing plane:过往飞机
passing作定语，正在路过的
eg:sleeping baby:正在睡觉的小孩
waiting car:正在等待的车
☆for some reason:由于某种原因
some+可数名词单数：某一 some book
some+可数名词复数：一些 some books
some+不可数名词：一些 some water
☆come into use:投入使用
use n.s发/s/的音
主动概念，没有被动式
☆Over a hundred people must have been driven away from their homes by the noise.
这句好好分析一下
home:家，强调有感情;house仅仅指房子
☆left:leave的过去分词，表示被留下来的
left作定语放在被修饰词的后面：剩下的
☆offer=give:提供
give sb sth/give sth to sb 双宾语
双宾语的被动语态，主语有两种可能：以sb作主语或以sth作主语
give sb sth-->sb be given sth
give sth to sb-->sth be given to sb
用离动词最近的宾语作主语 |
