  自学导读
1.do the football pools,下足球赛的赌注。
football pools 是英国流行的一种赌博方式,靠在足球比赛结果上的赌注来决定输赢。
2.What will you do if you win a lot of money?如果你赢了许多钱,你打算做什么呢?
if you win a lot of money是一个表示条件的状语从句。在英文中,条件是指某一事情(状语从句中的动作)实现之后其他事情(主句中的动作)才能发生,通常译为“假如”。如果条件状语从句用于询问或谈论十分可能发生的事情,那么条件状语从句中常用一般现在时,而主句中则用一般将来时。 a lot of既可与可数名词也可与不可数名词连用。(请参见本课语法部分。)
3.buy  sb. sth.= buy  sth.sb.。
4.see the world,看世界。
travel round the world,周游世界。
二者有异曲同工之处。
5. What'll we do then?那时我们怎么办呢?
句中then意为“到那时”(指将来)。
6.a pleasant dream,一个美好的梦。
7.depend on,取决于,依靠。


 语法  Grammar in use
第1类条件句
如果我们认为将来的事件是可能发生的,就可用第1类条件句去描述将会发生什么事或不会发生什么事。其基本结构是:If +一般现在时+将来时(或情态助动词),如:
If it rains tomorrow, we won't go to the seaside.
如果明天下雨,我们就不去海边。
if从句中的现在时表示需具备的条件,主句中的shall/will将来时表示可能的结果。具备的条件是真实的,可能真的下雨。
如果是这样,它就会有真实的结果。这就是为什么这样的陈述句常被称为“开放”条件句或“真实”条件句的原因。事实上,在第1类条件句中,一切现在时态都能用在if之后,而不仅仅是一般现在时。请看例句:
If he falls ,he'll hurt himself.
如果他摔倒了,他会伤着自己的。
If you don't hurry ,we'll miss the train.
你要是不赶紧点儿,我们就会误了火车。
If you feel better, you can get up.
你要是感觉好些了的话,你就能起床了。
If I am better tomorrow, I will get up.
如果我明天感觉好些了,我就起床下地。
If I have a headache, I will take an aspirin.
我要是头疼的话就会服用一片阿司匹林。
If I can afford it, I will buy it.
要是我买得起的话我就会买它。
