35、ep 7 Language Points FocusT: So much for the exercises.Now look through the passage again and see if you have any language problems.S: I don t know what s the meaning of the sentence“Not all cultures greet each otherthe same way,nor are they comfortable touching strangers or being too close or too f

36、araway.”?T: This sentence means “不是所有人都以同樣的方式寒暄。接觸陌生人時(shí), 距離太近或太遠(yuǎn)都會使他們不舒服?！?In the sentence,you have to pay special attention to the usage of“not.nor.”which means “既不也不” .Forexample,theydo not shake hands withwomen,nor arethey likelyto kisswomen publicly.“nor ” impliesthe negativemeaning,sowhen it is

37、put at the beginning of the sentence,the sentence should be inverted.表示否定意義的 nor 放在句首 , 該句子應(yīng)用倒裝語序, 即把 be 動詞、助動詞或情態(tài)動詞放在主語前。 如,Nota singleworddid he say at the meetinglast night.Thewords havingthe similarusage withnor are“not,never,seldom,hardly,rarely,little”. 如,Never has he been to China.他從來沒有來過中國。T

38、: Are you clear now with the usage of“nor ”?S: We are clear now.T: Do you have any other language problems?S: I am not quite sure about the usage of“l(fā)ikely”.T: In the passage,the sentence“People from places like Spain,Italyor South Americancountries approach others closely and are more likely to tou

39、ch them.” means 從西班牙、意大利或南美洲國家來的人近距離地接近對方, 而且可能會（用身體）接觸對方。There are twostructures of“l(fā)ikely”.They are“sb./sth.is likely to do sth.” and “Its likelythat+clause ”. 如,Hes veryli kely tobe late forclass.他很有可能會上課遲到。Itislikelyto rain tonight.今晚可能要下雨。T: Any more questions?If not,lets move on to discussion.
