Notes on the text课文注释
1 在英文表示某一种商店的短语中，往往可以把shop这个词省略，如课文中的the butcher's (shop)和the greengrocer's (shop)。类似的例子还有the hairdresser's (shop), the stationer's (shop), the doctor's(office), my mother's (house)等。
2 在英文中，过去发生的而现在已经结束的动作要用一般过去时来表示。“是”(be)动词的过去式不规则‘第一、第三人称单数用was，其他情况用were。
3 How are you all keeping?
这是一句问候对方身体如何的话。
4 for the weekend是指整个周末这几天的时间，而at the weekend是强调时间的某一点。
5 Aren't you lucky!
这句话是否定疑问句形式的感叹句，为的是加强语气。尽管形式上是否定的，但却表示强有力的肯定。
