Language points
for real
what引导感叹句
what’s more
as a result
used to
die out
as happy as a clam
as dead as a dodo
1. Actually, there used to be thousands of us - for real.
used to...意为“过去曾经......”，后跟动词原形，表示过去的习惯或者常态，但是现在已经不存在。
Jimmy used to live here.
吉米曾经住在这里。(现在不住在这里了)
for real意为“真正地，确实地，认真地”，常用于口语，以强调所描述的事情是真实的。
This is not a joke. I am for real.
这不是开玩笑。我是认真的。
2. What a peaceful and safe life!
本句是what引导的感叹句，其基本的句子结构是What+a/an +形容词+可数名词单数+主语+谓语!
What a clever boy he is! 他是个多么聪明的男孩啊!
与how引导的感叹句相比，what引导的感叹句主要强调名词，因此句型中what后面一般跟的是(a/an+)形容词+名词; 而how引导的感叹句主要强调程度，因此句型中how后面一般跟的是形容词或副词。
What a beautiful song you sing! 你唱的歌真好听!
How lovely the flower is! 这朵花真美啊!
What a lovely flower it is! 多美的一朵花啊!
How beautifully you sing! 你唱得多么好听呀!
3. What's more, their pigs, cats and dogs ate our eggs.
what's more 意为“而且，此外”，用于引出更多重要的信息。常见于列举观点、论据或事实，而且下一个观点通常更为重要或有更大的影响。
She's a hard worker and, what's more, she's very gifted.
她非常努力，而且极其有才华。
The hotel has a very beautiful view by the sea. What's more,
it's very cheap.
这个酒店海景很美，而且价格非常便宜。
4. As a result, we soon died out.
as a result 意为“因此”，表示后一句话是前一句话导致的结果或者造成的影响。
He hurt his leg. As a result, he didn't take part in the
football match.
他伤了腿。因此，他没有参加这次足球比赛。
die out 意为“灭绝，消失”。
This animal died out millions of years ago.
这种动物在几百万年前就灭绝了。
5. Make them as happy as a clam, not as dead as a dodo.
as happy as a clam是一个英文习语，省略了后面的at high water (涨潮)，意为“非常高兴的，相当满足的”。比喻像涨潮时的蛤蜊一样快乐，因为海水退潮时蛤蜊很容易被捕食，到了涨潮时则无须担心。
as dead as a dodo也是一个英文习语，意为“彻底死亡; 已经失效; 不再使用”，常用于表示一件事毫无意义。这个习语的由来便是渡渡鸟的灭绝。
Homework
