3. lie on one’s back 仰臥(臉朝上)
補充:
(1) lie on one’s stomach:俯臥(臉朝下)。
(2) lie in bed:臥床,通常指生病或睡覺。
(3) lie on the bed:躺在床上,通常指短暫的時間,不是在睡覺,強調在床上這個地點。
4. With + N, S + V... 因為(有)
with + N表示「因為、由於」,作為副詞,
注意 with + N 常用於肯定句;否定句則通常用 without + N。
5.在某些慣用的搭配語中,可數名詞前面不加冠詞,也不用複數形。這類的搭配語除了本句中的be put into hospital以外,尚有go to school/work, stay
in/get out of bed, be out of work, go by bus/taxi/plane等。
6.pass為動詞,在此解釋為「(時間)經過」之意,而past一字雖亦為「過去;經過」之意,卻是形容詞或副詞,兩者不可混淆。
Ex: A week passed, and I still felt uncomfortable. → A week went past, and I still felt uncomfortable.
7. make sure that S + V/of sth. 確定;確認

10.在本課用法中 現在分詞(V-ing)主動用法,意為「令人……的」;過去分詞(p.p.)為被動用法,解釋為「(某人)感到……的」。例:
• My test result was disappointing.
The teacher was disappointed.• The speech was boring.
The audience felt bored.
11. too...to... 太……以致於不能……
注意 含此句型的句子中雖然沒有not,但句子的意思是否定的。此句型可以用so...that... +否定字替換。
• Johnny is too young to
stay home alone.
→ Johnny is so young that he can’t stay home alone.
