Notes on the text 课文注释
1.We may go abroad.我们可能去国外。
在英文中用may来表示可能发生的事情,在may后面加动词原形o请注意may表示的是一种可 能性,这与第127课所讲的表示有根据的推论是有区别的0
2.make up our minds,打定主意。
3.Don't be so sure.别那么肯定 0
在祈使句中,be动词的否定形式要用don't be,这种结构常常用于劝告。
4.We might not go anywhere.我们可能哪里也去不成。
might可以用来表示一种可能性,但它表示的"肯定”程度还不如may。和may 一样,might所表 示的是现在或将来的一种可能性。
5.look after,照看。
6.in the end,最后
