11、 go,be on your guard.Be ready to meet him from now on.”,“先生，”那个男孩很认真地说道，“不必去问了。我知道他是谁，你们也都认识他。他曾经是你们的朋友。昨天晚上他烂醉如泥地坐在那儿的长凳上时，突然被人杀了。人们称之为“死神”的动作迅速的窃贼把他的心劈成两半，然后一言不发就离开了。所以，先生，不管你去哪儿，都要提防着点儿。从现在起要准备好随时会遇到他。”,ENJOYING CAMBRIDGE(I),Focus 1 Section I,(3)Who was the killer as was told according to the boy

14、？但是在现代英语中这种形式被认为过于正式，因而用助动词do构成的疑问形式被普遍接受。e.g.(1)Did he use to come here?他以前常来这里吗？(2)Didnt you use to have dinner at 7:30?你过去不是一向在七点半吃晚饭吗？,cut sth.in/into sth.:to divide an area into two or more parts 把（某物）切开（或分割）e.g.(1)The river cuts the whole region in two.这条河把整个地区一分为二。(2)Cut the cake in four and

17、究竟到哪里词缀-ever原来是用来加强语气的，与wh-词结合后使他们带上了“无论”、“尽管”的意思。在口语中常用no matter+wh-词来代替wh-词+ever引导的让步状语从句。e.g.(1)Wherever(=No matter where)he may be,he will be happy.他无论在什么地方都很快乐。(2)Ill find him wherever he is.不管他在哪儿我都要找到他。wherever在例(1)中为连词，在例(2)中为连接副词。注意：wherever也可以用来引导地点状语从句，用来加强语气。e.g.(1)Wherever there is wate
