WeareallveryexcitedandarelookingforwardtotheOlympicGamesbecausetheyhaveneverbeenheldbeforeinthiscountry.

我们都非常激动，盼望着奥运会的到来，因为在这个国家里还从未举办过奥运会。这是一个由because引导的原因状语从句，主句部分又是一个由and连接的并列句，因为and前后两个句子的主语相同，所以省略了and后面句子的主语we。句中lookforwardto表示盼望、期待……。需要注意的是这里的to是介词，不是不定式，后面不能接动词原形。如：Ilookforwardtoseeinghertomorrow.我期待着明天与她见面。Welookforwardtocooperatingwithyou!我们期待与您的愉快合作！Exercises练习一.Answerthesequestions.1.Whenwilltheolympicgamesbeheldinourcountry?Wherewillthegovernmentbeputtingupnewbuildings?(so)
