Poor Ian!

可怜的伊恩！

A dialogue lesson on the future tense with 'shall/will' and 'be going to'. Three neighbours (Catherine, Jenny, and Linda) discuss Ian, who has just sold his house and is moving tomorrow afternoon. Jenny has always known Ian as a good neighbour and will see him today to give him their regards. The twist: Ian didn't want to leave, but his wife did! New vocabulary includes still, move, miss, neighbour, person, people, and poor. Workbook practice covers completing the dialogue (fill in missing words) and sorting nouns by plural pronunciation. Grammar exercises practise replacing 'am/is/are going to' with 'shall/will' and completing dialogues using the cues given.

Notes on the text 课文注释

No, not yet

No, not yet. 不，还没有。
这是简略回答，完整的回答是 He hasn't moved to his new house yet.

He's a very nice person

He's a very nice person. 他是一个非常好的人。person 是指人。当需要表示复数形式时，往往用 people 这个词。如后面的一句话 When will the new people move into this house?

Please give him my regards

Please give him my regards. 请代我问候他。

No, he didn't want to leave ...

No, he didn't want to leave ... 是对上一句话的证实。由于上一句话中用了否定形式，因此，在证实时句中的动词不可模仿前一句话的形式，而要根据事实来决定。但在译成汉语时，No 就要译成肯定的意思，如："是的，他不想离开。"
