探究二： 知识点解读

1.Where I’m from, we’re pretty relaxed about time.在我们国家, 我们对时间相当宽松。

在这里relaxed是形容词, 意为“宽松的, 不加以约束的”, 后面常接介词about。be relaxed about …  对……感到放松。relaxed还可以意为“放松的, 轻松自在的”。注意relaxing  adj.  使人放松的,令人感到轻松的

【活学活用】

我的父母对我的服装不加约束。 _______________________________.

不要害怕，轻松面试。 Don't be afraid, ______________________________.

2.We value the time we spend with our family and friends in our everyday lives.我们特别珍惜平日生活中和家人、朋友在一起的时光。

value 动词，意为 “重视；珍视”。

value sth. 意为“认为某物有价值；珍惜/重视某物”。

value可作名词，意为 “价值”，be of great value to 意为“对……很有价值 ”。be of little value“没什么价值”。

valuable  作形容词，意为“贵重的；宝贵的 ”。

【活学活用】我一直很重视老师们所给的建议。     _____________________________

 好书对学生非常有用。 _______________________________.

3.We often just  drop by our friends’ homes if we have time.
   我们经常顺便拜访朋友们的家，如果有时间的话。

drop by 意为 “顺便拜访；随便进入”。可以直接使用,也可以在by后面加表示地点的词。相当于come over to和drop in。drop in at sp.意为“顺便拜访某地”,drop in on sb.意为“顺便拜访某人”。即drop by sb. = drop in on sb. 顺便走访某人

drop by one’s home = drop in (at) +地点  拜访…

【活学活用】他下班回来，顺便到朋友家坐了坐。     _____________________________

 不要忘了顺便去拜访一下你的老师。 _______________________________.

4.If someone invites you to meet him or her at noon, then you’re even 15 minutes late, your friend may get mad .如果有人邀请你中午见他或她，然后你迟到15分钟，你的朋友可能会大动肝火。

get mad (使)发怒，(使)生气。在这里，get是连系动词，接形容词，表示“变得”。如果要强调状态，则用be mad ，表示动作用get mad。mad形容词，意为“很生气的；疯的”。常用搭配:

①be mad at/with…意为“对……发怒”，相当于be angry with。②be mad about意为“对……着迷”。drive sb. mad“使某人发狂”。

【活学活用】她因为她的丈夫忘了她的生日而生气。     _____________________________

 我对集邮非常着迷。 _______________________________.

5.So I make an effort to be on time when I meet my friends.   所以我每次见朋友时都尽力准时。

effort/'efə(r)t/ n.努力；尽力

make an effort为固定短语，其中effort作名词，意为“努力；尽力”。make an effort to do sth.意为“努力做某事”。

effort的常用短语还有：spare no effort to do sth.意为“不遗余力做某事”。

【活学活用】我们会尽力准时完成这个工作。_____________________________

 今天早上为了按时到校，她努力跑去学校。_______________________________.
