【短语汇总】 put out扑灭

in this way 就这样

be able to有水平做某事，能够做某事 【知识点讲解】

1，与put相关的几个重要短语(At last firemen have put out a big forest fire in California)

1，put on穿上，也指“长胖”2，put off推迟3，put away收拾起来4，put out扑灭

例1：you put on weight recently.你最近长胖了。

例2：the meeting is put off because of the rain.因为阴雨会议被推迟了。

例3：put out your cigarette，now!马上把烟给我灭掉!

2，be able to 与can 的区别( he was able to solve the mystery) 两者意思一致，主要的区别是词性区别，前者是动词短语，后者是情态动词，所以前者遵循一般be动词的原则，后者则要遵循情态动词的使用规则。我们能够说can be able to，但是绝对不能够说be able to can。

3，try to 与try doing的区别(they have been trying to find out how the fire began)

try doing侧重于过程，不强调结果，所以仅仅是“试试看”“尝试着”的意思;而 to do则注重结果，意思是“竭尽全力”“力争”的意思。 Lesson54

After breakfast, I sent the children to school and then I went to the shops. It was still early when I returned home. The children were at school, my husband was at work and the house was quiet. So I decided to make some meat pies. In a short time I was busy mixing butter and flour and my hands were soon covered with sticky pastry. At exactly that moment, the telephone rang. Nothing could have been more annoying. I picked up the receiver between two sticky fingers and was dismayedwhen I recognized the voice of Helen Bates. It took me ten minutes to persuade her to ring back later. At last I hung up the receiver. What a mess! There was pastry on my fingers, on the telephone, and on the doorknobs. I had no sooner got back to the kitchen than the doorbell rang loud enough to wake the dead. This time it was the postman and he wanted me to sign for aregistered letter! 【课文翻译】

早饭后，我送孩子们上学，然后就去了商店。我回到家时，时间还早。孩子们在上学，我丈夫在上班，家里清静得很。于是我决定做些肉馅饼。不一会儿我就忙着调拌起了黄油和面粉，很快我的手上就沾满了粘粘的面糊。恰恰在此时，电话铃响了。没有什么能比这更烦人了。我用两个沾满面糊的手指捏起了话筒。当听出是海伦.贝茨的声音时，非常丧气。我用了10分钟的时间才说服她过会儿再来电话。我终于挂上了话筒。真是糟糕透了!我的手指上、电话机上以及门的把手上，都沾上了面糊。我刚回到厨房，门铃又响了起来，响声足以把死人唤醒。这次是邮递员，他要我签收一封挂号信! 【生词汇总】 sticky adj. 粘的 finger n. 手指
