英语九百句文本

英语900句汉语注释 内容简介 一、本材料是根据美国麦克米兰公司（The Macmillan Company）出版的《英语900句》（English 900）基本课程（A Basic Course）一书录译的。材料中还面对初学英语者对每个主题出现语句的特点加注了语法说明，为进一步掌握英语900个句型打下词汇和语法基础。（加注部份因录入量太大，本上传材料未加。——上传者注） 二、本材料按原书顺序编排，全材料共分六册，其中包括60个主题。原书汇选了日常生活最常用的基本句型，虽然书中不免有些内容不符合我国情况，应注意批判吸收，但对我们来说这本书在学习英语口语和掌握英语基本础知识方面会有不少帮助。 三、本材料虽然把原书《基础课文》（Basic Tests）900个基本句子都译成了中文，但英语口语是比较灵活的，往往因时间、场合以及方言习语的说法不同，就有不同的函义。当然，更无需说还要考虑文体和修词了。譬如：“Good morning.”(早安)一语，通常就有几种译法，如也可以译成“您早”，“早晨好”以及“您好”（午前见面时用）和“再见”（午前分手时用）等。因此对的理解不宜与汉语的译文完全等同起来。 目 录 第一册 一、问候语Greetings （1-15） 二、课堂用语Classroom expressions（16-30） 三、辨别物品Identifying objects（31-45） 四、辨别物品Identifying objects. （46-60） 五、辨别身份Identifying people by occupation（61-75） 六、介绍和礼节Introductions and courtesies （76-90） 七、年历的周日和月份Days and months of the calendar（91-105） 八、谈论事物 Talking about objects （106-120） 九、述说时间Telling time （121-135） 十、谈论日期Talking about dates （136-150） 第二册 一、谈论物品和人Talking about objects and people（151-165） 二、谈论语言Talking about languages （166-180） 三、谈论活动Talking about activities （181-195） 四、询问年龄Asking about age （196-210） 五、谈论日常活动Talking about daily activities （211-225） 六、谈论昨天的活动Talking about yesterday’s activities（226-240） 七、访友Meeting a friend （241-255） 八、谈论去年的活动Talking about last year’s activities （256-270） 九、询问地址Asking about addresses （271-285） 十、提问问题 Asking questions （286-300） 第三册 一、形容物品Describing objects （301-315） 二、请人办事Asking people to do things. （316-330） 三、打听情况和问路Getting information and directions （331-345） 四、谈论家庭和亲属 Talking about family and relatives （346-360） 五、谈论邻居和朋友Talking about neighbors and friends （361-375） 六、谈论未来的活动Talking about future activities （376-390） 七、谈论天气Talking about the weather （391-405） 八、谈论疾病和健康Talking about sickness and health （406-420） 九、谈论日常生活习惯Talking about daily habits （421-435） 十、征求别人的意见和想法Getting other people’s opinions and ideas （436-450） 第四册 一、订Making plans （451-465） 二、作决定Making decisions （466-480） 三、旅游Going places （481-495） 四、购物Going shopping （496-510） 五、餐馆进膳Eating in a restaurant （511-525） 六、参加晚会Going out for the evening （526-540） 七、约会Making appointments （541-555） 八、看病Visiting the doctor （555-570） 九、打电话Making telephone calls （571-585） 十、写信Writing letters （586-600） 第五册 一、叙谈体验Telling about past experiences （601-615） 二、寻找家具和住房Asking about furniture and places to live （616-630） 三、谈论衣着Talking about things to wear （631-645） 四、讨论不同观点Discussing different points of view （646-660） 五、考虑将来可能从事的活动Thinking about possible future activities （661-675） 六、谈论过去可能发生的事Talking about past possibilities （676-690） 七、询问喜欢和不喜欢做的事Asking about likes and dislikes （691-705） 八、劝说并提出意见Giving advice and opinions （706-720） 九、请别人帮忙Asking favors of other people （721-735） 十、做旅行准备Making preparations to travel （736-750） 第六册 一、国家与国籍Countries and nationalities （751-765） 二、地理与地貌Geography and land features （766-780） 三、学校和教育Schools and education （781-795） 四、工作与职业Work and careers （796-810） 五、农场与工厂Farms and factories （811-825） 六、爱好和兴趣Hobbies and interests （826-840） 七、文体活动Recreation and sports （841-855） 八、报章杂志Newspapers and magazines （856-870） 九、收音机和电视机Radio and television （871-885） 十、音乐与文学Music and literature （886-900） 第一册 一 问候语（Greetings ） 1.
