so do I 和Neither do I 这类简短的回答,看上去象问句,实际上是陈述句,因此要用降调。
Neither 一词可以读作[ ]也可以读作[ ],你在广播里将听到[ ]。
5、其他表示同意或不同意的说法
BARBARA:I don't like hot food.
I'm not keen on it.
JOHN: NO. You're not keen on hot food, are you?
请注意,对一句否定的话表示同意,不说YES,而说No.
概括起来,对一句肯定的话或否定的话表示同意或不同意,可以这样表示:
表示同意一句肯定的话:
It's hot in here! Yes, it is!
表示同意一句否定的话:
I'm not very happy today! No ,you aren't.
表示不同意一句肯定的话:
My nose is too long. No, it isn't. I like it.
表示不同意一句否定的话:
I'm not sick. Yes, you are.
A CONVERSATIONAL DEVICE
Actually 有人在会话中常用actually一词,意思是“说真的”、“确切地说”或“实际上”(请参看第I部分中的第二段对话。)

PART I - The Dialogue
有几个高中学生在和老师进行讨论。一开始,他们讨论的是课余做工的事。
TEACHER:
O.K. -working after school.
Ah...Chris, you work after schol,don't you? What do you think of it?
CHRIS:
I think it's good. It gives me a bit more spending money.
TINA:
Hm...You may be right, Chris, but it can affect your school work.
CHRIS:
My school work's O.K.!
TINA:
But you don't have any leisure time.It's all work, work,work!
CHRIS:
Ienjoy myfelf at work. I meet lots of different people.
TINA:
Maybe, but I think people need leisure time. And with exams coming up you need all the time you can get.
PAUL:
Right!
后来,他们又讨论关于考试的事。这一段,此处没有选印。不过如果你学第II部分所列词语,听广播时就没有困难了。
get sick [ ]生病
understand [ ]了解
maybe [ ]也许
either [ ]也(用于否定句)
I couldn't agree more [ ]我太同意了
It gives me a bit more spending money [ ]
这样可以多来点儿零花钱
Look at me! [ ]就拿我来说吧
The thing is, some kids are bright [ ]
问题是,有的孩子很聪明
They don't do their best in exams [ ]
他们考试的时候,考不出真正的水平
We've got to do them面[ ]我们非参加(考试)不可
...with exams coming up [ ]快要考试了
working after school[ ]课余做工
It can affect * your schol work [ ]这会影响学习的
You need all the time you can get [ ]所有的时间都得用上
*动词affect读音与effect(动词、名词)[ ]相同。请查名词effect的意思。(实际上名词effect 和动词effect是有联系的:to affect sth=to have an effect on sth)
IDIOM:
Let's agree to disagree [ ]
让我们同意结束讨论,各自保留自己的意见吧。
NAMES:
Chris [ ]
(可能是女子名,是Christina或Christine的昵称;也可能是男子名,是Christopher的昵称。)

PART III - The Lesson
AGREEING AND DISAGREEING
同意与不同意
关于怎样表示同意和不同意,我们在第6讲和第19讲学了以下几个说法:
表示同意 表示不同意
I agree. I don't agree.
I think so too. I disagree.
So do I. I don't think so.
Right . That's true,but ...
在这一讲里,我们要学习以下几个新的说法:
1.HALF-AGREEING WITH
SOMEONE表示不完全同意
You may be right, but ...(参看对话)
Maybe, but...(参看对话)
随后我们常常要提出相反的意见或论点。广播里有这样一段对话:
JOHN:
I like this song. It's lively.
BARBARA:
You may be right, but it's noisy.
2.AGREEING STRONGLY
表示非常同意
表示非常同意,说法很多,常用的有:
Exactly.
I couldn't agree more.
3.BEING EXTRA POLITE WHEN DISAGREEINGP客气地表示不同意
I don't quite agree.
(加了quite 这个小词,句子就显得较为客气。)
请看下面这个例子:
BARBARA:I like music.
JOHN: I do too.
(请参看第19讲第III部分)
这个说法也可以表示同意,或者表示与前面一句肯定的话相同的意思。
请注意,表示这样的意思,可以使用下面两个公式:
主语+助动词+TOO
或SO +助动词+主语
He likes music. She does TOO.
So does she.
They'll come. I will TOO.
SO will I.
We've finished. Paul hs TOO.
SO has paul.
You remembered. Chris did TOO.
SO did Chris.
PRONUNCIATION CORNER
a) 关于some 一词的读音:
i)[ ] 这是最常用的读法。some 后面如有一个名词,而句子的重点也在这个名词,而不在于数量,就用这种读法。
I'd like some tea ,thanks.(请注意,这种弱读形式是不能重读的。)
ii)[ ]表示的意思与(i)相同,但后面没有名词。
Yes, I'd like some, thanks.
iii)[ ]表示一定数量,但句子的重点在于说明只有“少量” ,而不在于名词本身。
I've got some paper(but not much).
iv)[ ] 表示一部分,而不是全部。
Some of my friends.
Some people think...
some kids get sick...
在上述(iii)和(iv)两种情况,some一词总是重读的。
b)I couldn't agree more [ ]
在说这句话时,请注意第二个词与第三个词怎样连读。请反复练习。
