A. Texts & Notes

1. He's gone to lunch.

在弗朗西斯的办公室，秘书在接电话：
Secretary: Hello. Francis Matthews' office.
Jones: Is Mr Matthews there, please?
Secretary: I'm afraid Matthews is out.
Jones: Out?
Secretary: Yes, he's out. He's gone to lunch. He's gone to a restanrant, I think.
Jones: When is he coming back, please?
Secretary: He's coming back at two o'clock. Sorry. He isn't coming back at two. He's coming back at three. Can I take a message for him?
Jones: No, thank you.

秘书：喂，这里是弗朗西斯.麦休斯的办公室。
琼斯：请问，麦休斯先生在吗？
秘书：麦休斯先生出去了。
琼斯：出去了？
秘书：对，他出去了。他吃午饭去了。我想他到饭馆去了。
琼斯：请问，他什么时候回来？
秘书：他下午两点促回来。对不起，不是两点，是三点，要给他留个话吗？
琼斯：谢谢，不用了。

注1. to be out 意思是出去了、不在，out 的反意词是 in 。如：
— Is your brother in?
— No, he's not in. He's out. He's gone to work.
— Will he be to this evening?
— Yes, I think so.
注2. to have gone to … 表示到某处去了。He's gone to restanrant. 他到餐厅去了。说这句话时他不在，因为他到餐厅去了。到餐厅去是已经发生的动作，而和现在的情况有关。即尚未回来，不在场。这就是英语动词的现在完成时态。现在完成时表示一个已经发生的动作但与现在的情形有关连，即用一个过去发生的动作来表明现在的情况。免费下载是由助动词 have （或 has ）动词过去分词组成。do 的现在完成时态如下：
肯定：I（you, we, they） have done；he （she, it）has done
否定：I have not （ havn't）done；he has not （hasn't）done
疑问：Have you done; Has he done
简式：I've done; I've not done / he's done; he's not done
简答：Yes, I have. / No, I haven't.
注3. 英语动词有四种基本形式，原形、过去式、过去分词和现在分词。动词的过去式和过去分词有规则和不规则动词的区别，规则动词的过去式和过去分词均原形动词加词尾 -ed 构成（有些动词加 -ed 时的拼法有所不同）。不规则动词则有不规则变换，要熟记。例如：

注4. He's coming back at tree. 这是用现在进行式来表示即将发生的事（见第十课注8）。at tree 省略了o'clock。
注4. to take a message for him 意思是要给他留个话吗？或者，是要我转告他吗？

2. They are outside.

弗朗西斯和他的朋友吃完饭后……
Bob: Look, It's quarter past three. We're going back tp wrok. Are you ready, Mary?
Mary: Yes, I.m ready. Les's go.
Francis: No, please don't go. It's nice here. Let't have some coffee.
Mary: Oh, all right. Where's the waitres?
Bob: I don't know. Perhaps she's inside.
Francis: I'll go inside and look for her.
Jim: Excuse me, I'm looking for Francsi Matthews.
Reccptionist: Mr Matthews? Oh, yes. He's having lunch with some friends. They're outside.
Jim: Excuse me, I'm looking for Francsi Matthews.
Bob: Oh. He's inside.
Jim: Is he coming back?
Bob: Oh, yes. I think so. He's geting some coffee.

鲍勃：瞧，三点一刻了。我们要回去上班了。玛丽，你准备好了吗？
玛丽：发，就走。咱们走吧。
弗朗西斯：别，请别走，这里挺好的。我们喝点咖啡吧。
玛丽：嗯，好吧。（女）服务员在哪儿呢？
鲍勃：我不知道。可能她在里边。
弗朗西斯：我进去找她去。
吉姆：劳驾，我找弗朗西斯.麦休斯先生。
接待员：找麦休斯先生？喔，他正在和一些朋友吃午饭呢。他们在外面。
吉姆：劳驾，我找弗朗西斯.麦休斯先生。
鲍勃：喔，他在里面。
吉姆：他就回来吗？
鲍勃：噢，我想是的。他正在要咖啡。

注6. ready 是形容词，意思是处于准备的状态，Are you ready? （你准备好了吗？）在这段当中，据上下文理解，是 Are you ready (to go)? 就可译为你准备走吗？
注7. outside 和 inside 是由 out 和 in 加上 side （n. 里面）构成的词。如：he's inside.（他在里面。）There's a gentleman outside.（外面有位先生。）这和 he's in. （他在家。）和 He's out. （他出去了。）所表达的概念是不同的。
注8. to look for 意思是“寻找”但没有“找到”的意思，如果要表达“找到”的意思，就要用 to fide。例如：I'm looking for my English book, but I can't fide it. （我正在找我的英文书，但找不到。）
英文中类似的动词还有一些，例如：I looked （看）through the window and saw （看见）my brother. （我透过窗户看去，看见了我的哥哥。）I listened （听），but didn't hear （听到）anything. （我听了，但什么也没听到。）
注9. 英语的一日三餐是：breakfast （早餐）；;unch（午餐）；supper（晚餐）。dinner 是正餐，一天中主要的一餐，一般是在晚上。正式请客吃饭是 dinner。
注10. have 在英语中可以表达“吃”、“喝”的意思，如：He's having lunch with his friends. / Have some coffee, please. / Come and have dinner with us on Saturday evening, please?

3. Where have you been?

Wife: Ah! There you are? Where have you been?
Husband: I'm been to the football match. Where have you been?
Wife: I've been here at home, waiting for you.

妻子：啊！你回来了。你到哪儿去了？
丈夫：我去看足球比赛了。你到哪儿去了？
妻子：我一直在这儿，在家里，在等你呢。

— Ah, there you are?
— Sorry, I'm late. I've been to the shops. Where have you been?
— I've been at work. I'm been in the office.

— 啊，你可来了。
— 对不起，我迟到。我到了商店，你到哪儿去了？
— 我一直在工作。在我办公室。

— Hello, Jill. Where have you been?
— I'v been on holiday. I've been to Majorca.

— 你好，吉尔。你到哪里去了？
— 我去度假了。我到马约卡岛去了。

注11. have been 是动词 be 的现在完成时态。I am at work. （我在上班。）指说话时正在上班；Where have you been? （你在哪里？）I have been at work. （我在上班。）是指截止说话时一直在上班。在这几段对话中，问 Where have you been? 都包含着一层意思，即问为什么现在才来，为什么我老没见到你，你上哪儿去了……。
注12. to have been 和 to have gone 表达的概念不同，to have been 指去过某个地方现在已经回来了；to have gone 指到某个地方去了，现在还没有回来。如：He's been to a football match. （他去看了一场足球比赛。）现在回来了，可以给你讲讲比赛情况了。He's gone to a football match.（他去看足球比赛了。）还未回来，所以不在家。*
