夙愿終成真

廣東 袁丹純

For many years,I had a recurring(重復(fù)出現(xiàn)的)dream in which I was still a little girl,with books carried in my arm,ready to go to school.Deep inside,I knew where the dream came from.It was about some unfinished business in my life.As a kid,I loved everything about school.Most of all,I longed to receive my diploma(畢業(yè)證書(shū)).

But at 15,I had to drop out because my parents couldn't afford tuition.My hope of getting a diploma was gone.Pretty soon,I married and had three children whom I wanted to be educated.But Linda,our youngest child,had juvenile arthritis(幼年型關(guān)節(jié)炎)in her hands,which made it impossible for her in a normal classroom.But I did not want her to live with regrets as I did.It was then that I saw an ad in the newspaper for evening courses.So I signed her up for the night school.

Surprisingly,when Linda was filling out enrollment(入學(xué))forms,the secretary said to me,“Mrs Schantz,why don't you come back to school?”I laughed,“There's no way!I'm 55!”But he persisted,and before I knew what I had done,I was enrolled for classes in Eng?lish.I told myself to try for just a semester and to see if it would work.Anyway,my dream was still there in my heart.

It was exciting to go to school again,but it was not a game.Sitting in a classroom full of kids was awkward,even if most of them were respectful and encouraging.During the day,I was still a busy married woman with loads of housework to do.In the evening,I was a hard?working student working on my courses.To my surprise,both Linda and I did very well in night school.I went back again the next semester,with my grades steadily improving.

I have to say the evening courses were not easy for both of us.But neither of us gave up.At last,I got my diploma.What's more,I got a$3,000 college scholarship thanks to my excellent academic performance.The unfinished business in my dreams was eventually finished.

一、with sth doing/done/to do

1.For many years,I had a recurring dream in which I was still a little girl,with books carried in my arm,ready to go to school.很多年來(lái)，我重復(fù)做著同樣一個(gè)夢(mèng)，在夢(mèng)里我還是一個(gè)小女孩，懷里抱著書(shū)準(zhǔn)備上學(xué)。

【點(diǎn)石成金】with books carried in my arm表示“懷里抱著書(shū)”，是“with+賓語(yǔ)+過(guò)去分詞”結(jié)構(gòu)，意為“某事/某人被……的狀態(tài)”。

【運(yùn)用遷移】?jī)词直粠нM(jìn)來(lái)，手被綁在背后。

＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿＿

2.I was still a busy married woman with loads of housework to do.我仍然是一個(gè)需要做大量家務(wù)的忙碌的已婚婦女。

【點(diǎn)石成金】with loads of housework to do表示“有大量的家務(wù)需要做”，是“with+賓語(yǔ)+to do”結(jié)構(gòu)，意為“有……要做”。

【運(yùn)用遷移】有很多問(wèn)題需要解決，剛剛選上的總統(tǒng)正面臨難關(guān)。

【點(diǎn)石成金】with my grades steadily improving表示“我的成績(jī)?cè)诓粩嗟剡M(jìn)步”，是“with+賓語(yǔ)+doing”結(jié)構(gòu)，意為“有某事/某人做……”。

【運(yùn)用遷移】沒(méi)有人注意的時(shí)候，我偷偷地走進(jìn)了房間。

二、非限制性定語(yǔ)從句

But Linda,our youngest child,had juvenile arthritis in her hands,which made it im?possible for her in a normal classroom.但是我們最小的孩子琳達(dá)手部患有幼年型關(guān)節(jié)炎，這使得她上不了普通的學(xué)校。

【點(diǎn)石成金】which made it impossible for her in a normal classroom是非限制性定語(yǔ)從句，其中，make it impossible中的it是形式賓語(yǔ)，指代后面真正的賓語(yǔ)in a normal classroom。

【運(yùn)用遷移】它在一年內(nèi)就被建成了，這簡(jiǎn)直令人難以置信。
