Language Points
1. They just knock around — for the whole morning!
(1) knock around意为“悠闲地度过",常指在没有明确目标或计划的情况下闲逛、消磨时光。
E.g.Last Sunday, Jack knocked around the town with his friends.
它们就这样闲逛——逛了整整一上午!
(2) 句中破折号用于对前面的句子They just knock around进行补充说明,增强强调的意味,表示耗费了大量时间。
2.They leave droppings here and there.
here and there意为“到处,各处"。
E.g.There are flowers here and there in the city.
He left books here and there in the room.
到处都是它们的粪便。
had better意为“最好"(had可缩略为’d,与前一个单词连写), 用于提出建议。注意: had better后面一般跟动词原形。
3. I’d better go and watch them again...
我最好再去观察一下它们……
E.g.You’d better go now if you want to take the bus.
I’d better go and get ready.
be wrong about...意为“搞错……"。
也许我之前对鸽子的认识是错误的。
4.Maybe I was wrong about pigeons.
E.g. I think I’m wrong about this situation.
I was wrong about the new worker. He’s not from
Germany.

$古老的东方大陆先民是如何认识这块土地的?550座名山,300条水脉,四百多个神怪异兽,一百多个历史人物,四十多个方位。上古奇书山海经洋洋洒洒31000多字,以地理方位、山川走势作为结构,去统一千奇百怪的神奇幻想。这种独具一格的成熟形式以及呈现出的自由感、神秘感和神奇感,让后续研究者叹为观止。最为惊奇的是,它以新鲜、粗野而又异想天开的灵魂去猜测山海天香自然万物的秘密。山海经究竟是一部什么样的书?想告诉我们什么?今天我们能读到山海经,汉代的流心功不可没。当时山海经几经湮没,经他整理校勘,得以刊行于世,流传至今。其实我们的。很多神话,它都是远古流传,口口相传下来的。到了一定的时候,可能被记录下来成了书,是这样子的,所以它包含了非常丰富的远古的信息。有心认为山海经缘起一场大洪水。大禹是我们熟知的人物,他因治水划定九州而闻名于世,徐州、扬州、荆州、冀州、青州、兖州六个州的地名沿用至今。刘忻在上山海经表中说,禹在治水过程中,对山川土壤、地形地貌、动植物及矿产进行了一次大规模勘察,并梳理成书,这就是传说中山海经的由来。
