★New words and expressions

☆beggar n.乞丐

注意这是我们目前为止学到的唯一的以-ar结尾的名词。

v.beg 乞求

beg for:乞求得到

ask for:请求得到

☆pocket n.衣服口袋

inner pocket：大衣、西服内口袋

jacket pocket;coat pocket

pocket book:袖珍书；pocket dictionary

pocket money:零花钱（小孩的）

（不是零钱，零钱是change：get exact change）

男人的零花钱：beer money

18世纪，在小说里有时能见到女人的零花钱是针线钱。但是随着时代的进步，剩下的money都归女人管，所以女人无零花钱。

pocket pick:车上的小偷

☆call v.拜访，光顾

call sb/call up sb:给某人打电话

call back:回电话

我们昨天学的电话用语

-Can you take a message for me?

如果不想让第三人知道，你可以说：

Can you tell him to call back?

关于call的几个短语：

call at+地点=visit someplace

call on sb

I will call on you.=I will call at your home.

call out=shout 大声喊

call in sb 招集和邀请

For the project,the government called in a lot of experts.

★Text

I have just moved to a house in Bridge Street.Yesterday a beggar knocked at my door.He asked me for a meal and a glass of beer.In return for this,the beggar stood on his head and sang songs.I gave him a meal.He ate the food and drank the beer.Then he put a piece of cheese in his pocket and went away.Later a neighbor told me about him.Everybody knows him.His name is Percy Buttons.He calls at every house in the street once a month and always asks for a meal and a glass of beer.

☆ask sb for sth:问某人要什么东西

for：为了这个目的去请求某人。sb更多的时候并不出现，而直接说ask for sth,因为强调的是东西而不是人。

eg:The boy asks (his parents)for money again/once more.

☆in return:作为回报

He doesn't want anything in return.

in return for sth:作为对……的回报

I'll buy a present for him in return for hospitality.

☆stand on one's head:倒立（头着地）

用手着地：stand on one's hand/hands

跪着：stand on one's knees

躺着：lie on one's back(仰面)/side（侧躺）/stomach（趴着）

☆tell sb about sth

about:关于，通过其它事自己得出结论

tell sb sth:告诉某人某件事（把事情直接告诉）

☆所有的不定代词作主语一律为单数看待。

everybody,somebody,anybody,something,anything,everything

☆英语：in the street

美语：on the street

★难点

有些动词的后面加上介词或副词以后就会改变词义。这种新的组合称作短语动词。

如：put：放 put on:穿

take：拿走 take off:脱下

look：看

look at:看；look for:寻找；look after:照顾；look out:当心

knock

knock at:敲

knock off:1)下班 He knockedoff earlier.

2)knock sth off+地点：从……把……撞倒

knock the vase off the table

3)打折 knock 10% off the price

knock over

A car knocked the boy over.

[注]如果有地点：off；无地点：over

knock out:打晕（拳击术语，把人打倒在地）
