8、接宾语通常比say + to +sb. 更常用。在say和tell后面一般不可加逗号。如果间接引语中的引述动词是现在时，那么其后的时态通常与原来口头陈述句的时态相同。转述刚刚说完的话时通常如此；引述动词如果是过去时，那么间接引语中的时态通常要“往回移”（即“倒移”）。一条普遍的规则是“现在时变为过去时，过去时变为过去完成时”。直接引语：I can see him now!“我现在能够见他！” 词汇学习 Word study1nervous adj.（1）神经质的，神经紧张的：She is a nervous woman. Do you see that nervous smile on her

9、 face?她是个神经质的女人。你看见她脸上那种神经质的微笑了吗？（2）紧张的，担心的，情绪不安的：I feel very nervous before exams.我在考试前感到非常紧张。He had never spoken in public, so he was very nervous.他从未当众讲过话，所以他非常紧张。（3）与nervous容易混淆的另一个词是 irritable8（易怒的，急躁的）：Our teacher is an irritable old lady. She gets angry easily.我们的老师是位脾气急躁的老太太。她很容易生气。2afford v

10、t.（1）买得起（常与can连用）：We can/cant afford a car this year.我们今年买得起/买不起小汽车。（2）担负得起（损失、后果等），花得起（时间）（常与can连用）：I cant afford to be ill again.我不能再病了。I can only afford one week for the trip.我只能为这次旅行抽出一周的时间。（3）提供，给予：Joe afforded us a room for the night.那天晚上乔为我们提供了一个房间过夜。 练习答案 Key to written exercises1关键句型练习答案A 1
