Grammarfocus语法1.Ihadaletterfrommysisteryesterday.昨天我收到姐姐的一封信。havealetterfromsb.收到某人的来信。与receivealetterfromsb.和hearfromsb.意思相同。如上面这句话也可以表达为：Ireceivedaletterfrommysisteryesterday.Iheardfrommysisteryesterday.2.ShesaidthatshewouldcometoEnglandnextyear.她说她明年将到英国来。本句是间接引语，是作者转述了姐姐的话。在语法上这句话是一个宾语从句。ShewouldcometoEnglandnextyear.这句话作动词said的宾语。下文中也有一句间接引语：Itoldherthatshecouldstaywithus.我告诉她，她可以和我们住在一起。这是作者转述了自己在信中的话。语法上，这句话也是宾语从句，her和句子Shecouldstaywithus都是作为动词told的宾语。3.Ifshecomes,shewillgetasurprise.如果她来了，她会感到非常惊奇的。这是一个条件状语从句，主句中的surprise用作名词，在此表示使人惊奇、意外的事物，是可数名词，所以前面用了不定冠词a。surprise也可以用作动词，表示使吃惊。如：Imustsayyourwordssurpriseme.我得说你的话让我吃惊。4.Workonithadbegunbeforemysisterleft.这栋房子在我姐姐离开之前就已动工了。在这个由before引导的时间状语从句中，主句的动作是发生在从句的动作之前。从句的动作，我姐姐离开发生在过去，所以主句用了过去完成时。work在此表示工作、作业。是一个抽象名词，也是一个不可数名词，所以前面可以不加冠词。5.Thehousewascompletedfivemonthsago.

这栋房子是在5个月之前竣工的。wascompleted是一般过去时的被动语态。如：一般过去时的主动语态：Thestudentsgaveherawarmwelcome.学生们热烈欢迎她。一般过去时的被动语态：Shewasgivenawarmwelcomebythestudents.她受到学生们的热烈欢迎6.Thehousehasmanylargeroomsandthereisalovelygarden.这栋房子里有许多大房间，还有一个漂亮的花园。have表示拥有，主语一般是人。但当主语是物时，则表示在构成上拥有。如：Idon'thavethatmuchmoney.我没有那么多钱。Ourofficehastwodoorsandfourwindows.我们办公室有两扇门和四扇窗户。therebe句型则表示人或物的存在。如：Therearefourpeopleinmyfamily.在我的家庭里有4个人。Clearly,thereisaproblemhere.显然，这里出了个问题。Exercises练习一.
