Lesson 59 In or out课文详解+重点词汇语法学案-2022-2023学年新概念第二册

Lesson 59 文本  In or out？ Our dog, Rex, used to sit outside our front gate and bark. Every time he wanted to come into the garden he would bark until someone opened the gate. As the neighbours complained of the noise, my husband spent weeks training him to press his paw on the latch to let himself in. Rex soon became an expert at opening the gate. However, when I was going out shopping last week, I noticed him in the garden near the gate. This time he was barking so that someone would let him out ! Since then, he has developed another bad habit. As soon as he opens the gate from the outside, he comes into the garden and waits until the gate shuts. Then he sits and barks until someone lets him out. After this he immediately lets himself in and begins barking again. Yesterday my husband removed the gate and Rex got so annoyed we have not seen him since.  文本解析 一）词汇学习Word study 1．press（1）vt., vi.按，挤，压：She pressed my hand warmly.她热情地握我的手。Can you press that button for me please?请问您能帮我按一下那个按钮吗？The dog pressed his paw on the latch to let himself in.那狗用脚爪按住门闩把自己放进来。 （2）vt.挤取，榨取（……的汁）：This is the time of the year when they press their grapes.这是他们榨葡萄汁的季节。If you prefer juice, you can press some oranges.如果你更喜欢果汁，你可以榨些橙汁。 （3）vt.催促，敦促，竭力劝说：My parents pressed me to enter for the competition.我父母竭力劝我报名参加这个竞赛。I don't like to be pressed.我不喜欢被人催促。 2．develop vt.,vi.（1）发展，扩展：The village has developed into a town now.那个村子现在已扩展成一个镇了。Do you believe that you can develop your mind through watching TV?你相信通过看电视能开发你的智力吗？It's hard to develop your business in this city.在这座城市扩展你的业务是困难的。 （2）（逐渐）显现出，产生，获得，养成：He has developed another bad habit.他/它养成了另外一种坏习惯。She developed an interest in swimming.她对游泳产生了兴趣。 二）课文详注 Further notes on the text 1.
