课文详注 Further notes on the text1.One good turn deserves another,(标题)礼尚往来。
(1)名词turn的含义之一是“(帮助或损害他人的)举动”、“行为”:
Yesterday George did me a good/ an ill turn.
乔治昨天做了一件对我有利/不利的事。
He is always ready to do a turn for others.
他总是乐于为他人做好事。
(2)deserve的意义为“应受”、“应得(奖赏、惩罚等)”、“值得”,通常为及物动词:
His words deserve attention.
他的话值得注意。
Mary deserves the prize.
玛丽应得这个奖。
2.He gets a good salary…他的薪水很高……
good在这里的意思是“相当大/多的”、“相当可观的”:
It takes me a good three hours to get there.
我花了整整3小时才到达那里。
3.…but he always borrows money from his friends and never pays it back. ……但他却总是向朋友借钱,并且从来不还。
(1)连词and在这句话中可解释为“并且”、“另外”(in addition)。

pay还可以解释为“付”、“支付(价款、账单等)”,如课文的最后一句话:

语法 Grammar in use
1.在前10课的语法中,我们比较了一般过去时、一般现在时、现在完成时、现在进行时和过去进行时等时态以及和它们相关的时间状语,另外还学习了被动语态。现在我们通过例句简要回顾一下所学过的内容:
You once worked in bank,didn't you?
你曾经在一家银行工作过,是不是(once指过去曾经、一度。与现在的状况没有关系)
Yes,but I'm working in a factory now.
是约。但是我现在在一家工厂上班。(now强调目前状况)
Have you seen Mary?
你见到玛丽了吗?(不需要特定的时间状语)
She was cooking lunch when I saw her last.
我最后一次看见她时,她正在做午饭。(过去进行时与一般过去时经常同时出现在一个句子中)
He was taught to read by his mother.
他由他母亲教会读书。(动作是对主语执行的)
Who taught him to read?
谁教他读书的?(主语是动作执行者)
2.动词+名词/代词+ 带to 的不定式
某些动词之后的带to的不定式之前可以有一个名词或代词。有些动词后的名词/代词可有可无,但有和没有经常影响整个句子的意义:
I want to speak to John.
我想和约翰谈话。(=I will speak.)
I want you to speak to John.
我希望你和约翰谈谈。(=You will speak.)
但是,还有一些动词后面用不定式作宾语时,其后通常必须有一名词或代词。这类动词有:allow, advise, help, teach, tell, request等等。这类动词不但可用于主动语态,也可用于被动语态:
Mr. Turner did not allow us to see the picture.
特纳先生没让我们看那幅画。
We were not allowed to see the picture.
人们不许我们看那幅画。
He taught me to paint.
他教我绘画。
Jane helped Julie to cook the meal.
简帮着朱莉做饭。
