    First listen and then answer the question.
    听录音,然后回答以下问题。
    How did Jane receive a letter from a stranger?

    My daughter, Jane, never dreamed of receiving a letter from a girl of her own age in Holland. Last year, we were travelling across the Channel and Jane put a piece of paper with her name and address on it into a bottle. She threw the bottle into the sea. She never thought of it again, but ten months later, she received a letter from a girl in Holland. Both girls write to each other regularly now. However, they have decided to use the post office. Letters will cost a little more, but they will certainly travel faster.

参考译文

    我的女儿简从未想过会接到荷兰一位同龄姑娘的来信。去年,当我们横渡英吉利海峡时,简把写有她姓名和住址的一张纸条装进了一只瓶子,又将瓶子扔进了大海。此后她就再没去想那只瓶子。但10个月以后,她收到了荷兰一位姑娘的来信。现在这两位姑娘定期通信了。然而她们还是决定利用邮局。这样会稍微多花点钱,但肯定是快得多了。

  自学导读
  1.A glass envelope, (标题)玻璃信封。
  因为第一封信是装在瓶子里的,瓶子便成了那张写有地址的纸条的玻璃信封。
  2.My daughter, Jane, never dreamed of receiving a letter from a girl of her own age in Holland. 我的女儿简从未想过会收到荷兰一位同龄姑娘的来信。
  文中 dreamed of后面的部分都是宾语。动名词 receiving带有自己的宾语 a letter。( cf. 第  20课语法)receive… from…表示“从……收到……”。
  3.Last year, we were travelling across the Channel and Jane put a piece of paper with her name and address on it into a bottle. 去年,当我们横渡英吉利海峡时,简把写有她姓名和住址的一张纸条装进了一只瓶子。
  (1)在写到过去的事情时,一般过去时和过去进行时可以连用。过去进行时往往用来表示背景,一般过去时表示发生的动作。
  在这句话中,travelling across the Channel是个持续时间较长的背景动作。
  (2)the Channel=the English Channel(channel如果大写,并且除了the以外没有其他定语时,则指英吉利海峡)。
  (3)with在这里表示“有”、“带有”、“具有”等,指纸条上写的内容。
  4.She never thought of it again…
  此后她就再没去想那只瓶子……
  think of指“考虑”、“想”、“想起”等:
  Do you ever think of the girls you met at a party?
  你会想起你在一个晚会上遇到的姑娘们吗?
  5.Both girls write to each other regularly now. 现在这两位姑娘定期通信了。
  both的用法在第14课词汇学习中已经讲过。它用在名词前面时,of可有可无。在both girls中,both为形容词;在both of the…结构中,both为代词。each other指互相,一般作宾语。
  6.Letters will cost a little more, but they will certainly travel faster. 这样会稍微多花点钱,但肯定是快得多了。
  (1)more和faster都是副词的比较级。这里隐含的比较成分是邮局寄信与海上漂瓶。
  (2)动词cost意为“(使)花费”、“价钱为……”,其主语通常为某物或某件事情:
  It costs a lot to buy a house.
  买一所房子要花许多钱。
  The dress cost me twenty pounds.
  这件连衣裙花了我20英镑。


  语法 Grammar in use
  后面可跟of,from,in和on的动词
  许多动词后面加上介词后仍具有其通常意义,但它们与哪些介词连用却往往是固定的,如borrow from,believe in(相信,信仰),receive from等。还有些动词可与不同的介词连用,而动词的意义改变并不大,如dream of/about,help in/with,expect of/from等。在学习中,要牢记哪些介词与它们连用。如下动词和介词通常可以分开使用,可以有自己的宾语,并且大部分都可用于被动结构。
  (1)与of连用的动词
  Someone must warn him of the difficulties. 必须有人提醒他有这些困难。
  He has already been warned of them.

  不要对你的孩子期望太高。
  He must have spoken of the matter to John.
  他肯定对约翰谈起过这件事。
  I have never heard of the actress.
  我从来没听说过这位女演员。
  (2)与from连用的动词

  He always asks for help from his parents. 他总是向父母求助。
  (3)与in连用的动词
