精講筆記:
10、The thieves,car was badly damaged and easy to recognize.
小偷的車損壞嚴(yán)重,俱容易辨認(rèn)。
語言點(diǎn) badly —詞基本意思是“壞地”,引申為“嚴(yán)重地,厲害地”。例:
China national football team was badly beaten in the race and came back.
中國國家足球隊(duì)?wèi)K敗而歸。
11、Shortly afterwards, the police stopped the car and both men were arrested.
沒過多久,警察就截住了那輛車,兩個(gè)小偷都被抓住了。
語言點(diǎn) 本句中“停車”和“抓賊”是兩個(gè)連貫動(dòng)作,所以用and連接為并列句。
