一．快捷識記

1． We are so used to them that we often do not even realize how many we see and hear in a day. 我們已經對廣告習以為常了，以至于我們常常忽略了一天看過或聽過多少廣告。

在So + adj. / adv. / v. + that…. 結構中，平時較為見的是so后面加形容詞或副詞，本句的結構中的so是對be used to something / doing something這一動詞短語的修飾。

He was so happy that he even jumped up and down.

他是如此的高興以至于都上竄下跳了。

The boy ran so quickly that his mother couldn’t catch up with him.

那男孩跑得如此之快以至于他的媽媽都趕不上他。

這個好消息使全體船員如此的激動以至于他們馬上就起航了。

2. An advertisement provides information and uses persuasive language and exciting images to encourage people to buy a product or service or believe in an idea. 為了達到鼓動人們消費或對他們的產品信任的目的，廣告通常提供一些信息或使用說服性的語言或是激動人心的畫面。

該句的謂語部分連用了三個并列的動詞短語，后又連用了三個目的狀語，形成了一定的排比氣勢。Provide information / use persuasive language / use exciting images是三個并列謂語短語，buy a product / buy s service / believe in an idea 是三個并列的目的。

provide sb with sth / provide sth for sb 向某人提供某物，供應

The management will provide food and drink.

= The management will provide the staff with food and drink.

= The management will provide food and drink for the staff.

管理部門將給全體員工提供飲食。

persuasive 是動詞persuade(說服, 勸說)的形容詞，意為 “有說服力的, 勸導性的”

He tried to persuade him with a persuasive speech, but failed.

他試圖用一次充滿說服力的演講來說服他，但卻失敗了。

3．A commercial advertisement is one which someone has paid for to promote a product or service. 商業廣告是為了推銷某種產品或服務而支付費用的廣告。

句中one指代的是advertisement，引導的定語從句用來修飾advertisement。

“promote” 在該句中意為“推銷，促銷”此外，promote還有“提升策劃”之意。

How can we promote the sale of this kind of product？

我們如何推銷這種產品呢？

The young army officer was promoted to captain。

這位年輕的軍官被提升為上尉。

These days the students’ Union are promoting an English Speech Competition.

這些天學生會正在策劃一場英語演講比賽。

4. PSAs are often placed for free, and are intended to educate people about health, safety, or any other issue which affects public welfare. 公益廣告常常不計任何回報，他們的目的是就健康，安全，或其他影響公共利益等社會問題對人們進行教育。

place 在此句中意為“安排”，即arrange；

intend to do = plan to do / in order to do

I don’t intend to listen to this rubbish any longer!

我在也不想聽這種無稽之談了！

intended 意為“計劃的，打算的，意欲的”，即“planned/ meant/ desired”

issue = important topic for discussion, point in question 問題, 議題

affect = have an influence on 對…有影響

welfare=care for the safety and health意為公共福利，健康。

Parents are responsible for the welfare of their children.

父母要對孩子的年個幸福負責。

5. China has strong laws to protect people from advertisements that lie or try to make people believe untrue claims about products or services.為保護人們免受虛假廣告欺騙或是受到不真實的產品或服務承諾的欺騙，國家制定了強有力的法律措施。

strong 在此意為powerful “強有力的”

protect… from….意為保護….免受….

He stayed under the shade to protect himself from the sun.

claim vt 聲稱，自稱，索取，要求

claim sth claim to be claim that

門口有位自稱是記者的人。

The terrorists claimed that they were responsible for the bombing.

恐怖分子聲稱對此次爆炸事件負責。

He claimed to be the manager of this department。

他要求成為這個部門的經理。

6. We must not fall for this kind of trick. 我們(消費者)不能跌入這樣的（消費廣告）陷阱。

fall 在此句中意為“be cheated or be played trick on”

fall 還有意思為“失去地位或垮臺”

The government fell after the revolution。

fall還可以作為聯系動詞，相當于become/turn

She fell silent at the key moment, thus the talk broke down half way.

在關鍵時刻她突然變得默不作聲，這讓和談半途而費。

7. PSAs are meant to teach us and help us lead better lives. 公益廣告的目的是教育我們幫助我們生活得更好。

be mean to = be planned to do ，mean to do sth 意思是“打算干某事”

We meant to help you，but had no time indeed。

我們蹦打算幫助你的，但確實沒有時間。

mean sth / doing sth 意思是“意指某事，意思是”

She often say something bitter though she means no harm。

8. China began a nationwide public service advertising campaign in 1996, and since then numerous PSAs have appeared around the country. 中國在96年展開了一場公共廣告服務的運動，從那時候起，大量的公益廣告在全國涌現。

My grandfather was a teacher. He was the headmaster of a school for boys between thirteen and eighteen. I know that he was a kind and gentle man at heart, because when I was young, he gave me presents, and seated me on his knee, and told me stories. But I believe the boys at his school were afraid of him.

At school, when he walked into a room full of noisy boys, here was a silence at once. When he looked at a boy with a certain look in his eyes, the boy went red in the face, and looked down at his shoes. If a boy brought him poor, careless work that was not the best the boy could do, my grandfather would pick up the boy’s book and throw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back to me in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the book, he had to do it again, and yet again. My grandfather never forgot.

He was a very different man at school from the man I saw day by day in his own home.

Happiness

Happiness means different things to different people. For example, some students believe that if they have much money or large possessions, they will be happy. They believe that they will be able to do anything they want to if have much money. Some students think that they should be in good health, and enjoy whatever they like. Many students wish to have much wealth from their parents. In this way they don’t have to work hard, and they can own everything. I don’t quite agree with the above points. I don’t think money means happiness. We can’t buy many of the things with money, such as health, happiness, and knowledge. I value knowledge, which makes me happy, for I can do much for mankind with knowledge. Although different people value happiness differently, my “wealth” of happiness is my study.
