I have been trying to get my new room in order.
我一直在努力把我的新房间整理好。
have been trying to do 表示“一直在设法做……”;get... in order 意为“把……整理得井井有条”。

To make matters worse, the room is rather small, so I have temporarily put my books on the floor.
更糟的是,房间相当小,所以我只好暂时把书放在地板上。
To make matters worse 表示“更糟糕的是”;rather small 是委婉加强语气;temporarily 表示“暂时地”。
At the moment, they cover every inch of floor space and I actually have to walk on them to get in or out of the room.
这会儿它们把地板上的每一寸地方都占满了,我实际上只得踩着这些书进出房间。

"You can sit here in your spare time and read the carpet!"
“你完全可以在空闲时间坐在这儿读这张地毯!”
read the carpet 是幽默说法,实际指“读地板上的书”;in your spare time 表示“在空闲时”。

单元概要

本课写“搬新家整理书房”时的真实狼狈,笑点不在地毯,而在地上铺满的书竟被妹妹误认为漂亮地毯。复习时要抓现在完成进行时、空间夸张表达,以及结尾那种轻松反讽。

精读导图
1. 先写“刚搬家 + 正在整理”的背景。
2. 再写书太多、房间太小,连落脚处都没有。
3. 最后用妹妹把书看成地毯,形成出人意料的幽默结尾。

精读关注
- 现在完成进行时写持续忙碌
- every inch of floor space 的夸张效果

语法点

现在完成进行时

I have been working... / I have been trying... 都强调动作从过去开始一直持续到现在,很适合写“忙了一整个上午”这种过程感。

相似句:
  • She has been cleaning the room all morning.
  • We have been looking for the missing key for hours.

To make matters worse

To make matters worse 是整句插入表达,表示“更糟的是”,常用来在叙事里进一步加码问题。

相似句:
  • To make matters worse, it began to rain.
  • To make matters worse, we had forgotten the tickets.

I have ever seen 的最高级语气

This is the prettiest carpet I have ever seen. 用最高级加现在完成时,把“我至今见过的最……”这种主观评价说得很足。

相似句:
  • It was the funniest joke I had ever heard.
  • This is the most crowded room I have ever entered.

读写提示

  • 复述时别把重点写成“介绍地毯”,真正主线是“整理书房却被书淹没”。
  • 概括时要保留 just moved in, over a thousand books, small room 这三层背景。
  • 结尾一定要写妹妹的误会,否则这课的幽默感会丢掉一半。
  • 写作时可以模仿作者,先铺垫麻烦,再用一句轻松对白收尾。

Composition

  • 作文
  • 1、when 2、not only....but.....as well (会放在there be 后面) 3、since: 因为, 由于(=because)
