Kathy: Thanks for the tea, Morley. Morley: It figures that lobster would make me sick. Kathy: No excuses. You lost, fair and square. Morley: Well, it's worth it. I feel like I'm in old China at this teahouse. Kathy: This used to be a gold mining town. That's how the people here had enough money to pay for the stone architecture. Morley: By the way, it's great that you got over your fear of heights. Kathy: I owe it all to Dan. He gave me the courage to try.

卡西:莫理,谢谢你请的茶。 莫理:我就知道那只龙虾会让我不舒服。 卡西:别找理由。你输了,很公平。 莫理:嗯,输的很值得。在这间茶坊里我好像活在中国古代。 卡西:这里曾是金矿重镇。所以这里的人才有足够的钱建造石材建筑。 莫理:顺便一提,你能克服惧高症实在是太好了。 卡西:多亏阿丹。是他给了我尝试的勇气。
重点解说:
★ It figures... …是理所当然的,也可以独立成句说成That / It figures.,表示‘想也知道’ ★ fair and square (口)光明正大的 ★ mining (n.,a.) 矿业(的) ★ architecture (n.) 建筑 ★ get over 忘却(过去) ★ fear of heights 惧高 ★ owe something to someone 对某人在某事物上欠一份情 | |

forget doing/to do
forget to do 忘记要去做某事。 (未做) forget doing 忘记做过某事。 (已做) The light in the office is stil on. He forgot to turn it off. 办公室的灯还在亮着,它忘记关了。(没有做关灯的动作) He forgot turning the light off. 他忘记他已经关了灯了。 ( 已做过关灯的动作) Don't forget to come tomorrow. 别忘了明天来。 (to come动作未做)
典型例题 ---- The light in the office is still on. ---- Oh,I forgot___. A. turning it off B. turn it off C. to turn it off D. having turned it off 答案:C。由the light is still on 可知灯亮着,即关灯的动作没有发生,因此用forget to do sth. 而forget doing sth表示灯已经关上了,而自己忘记了这一事实。此处不符合题意。
