  课文详注 Further notes on the text

  1.A clear conscience, (标题)问心无愧。

  clear在这里的含义为“清白的”、“无罪的”,因此这个短语又可译为“清白的良心”,相当于 a good conscience,反义词为 a bad conscience(感到内疚)。

  2.The whole village soon learnt that a large sum of money had been lost. 整个村子很快知道,有一大笔钱丢失了。

  (1)village在这里为总称,指“村民”,the whole village指“全村的人”,后面通常跟单数动词(有时也可视为复数):

  The whole village was excited by the news.

  这消息使全村的人兴奋。

  (2)learn在句中的含义为“获悉”、“得知”:

  I've just learnt that she was ill.

  我刚刚得知她病了。

  3.Sam Benton, the local butcher, had lost his wallet while taking his savings to the post office. 当地的屠户萨姆·本顿在把存款送往邮局的途中把钱包丢了。

  taking为现在分词。与动名词相似,它也可以有自己的宾语、状语等。在连词while之后,现在分词短语的作用相当于一个时间状语从 句:…while he was taking his savings to the post office。现在分词这样用的前提是两个动词的主语是同一个,并且这两个动作通常是同时发生的:

  He listened to music while cleaning the room.

  他一边打扫房间一边听音乐。

  如果是主语不一致则必须用从句:

  He listened to music while I was cleaning the room.

  我打扫房间时,他在听音乐。

  4.Sam was sure that the wallet must have been found by one of the villagers…萨姆确信那钱包一定是被某个村民捡到了……

  must用于对过去已发生的事进行推测时,后面的动词要用完成式:

  When I arrived, he wasn't here. He must have left early.

  我到这儿的时候他已不在了。他一定早走了。

  5.it contained half the money he had lost, 里面有他丢失的钱的一半。

  我们既可以说 half the money,也可以说 half of the money,它们可以互相替代,但是money前都必须有the,因为是指特定的钱。再如:

  Half the bread/ half of the bread was bad.

  这面包有一半已变质了。

  6.In time, all Sam's money was paid back in this way. 很快,萨姆全部的钱都用同样的方式还了回来。

  (1)in time可以表示“经过一段时间”或“最终”、“迟早”:

  In time, he found all the books he needed.

  一段时间以后,他找到了他需要的所有书。

  I'll tell you everything in time.

  我最终/总有一天会把一切都告诉你的。

  (2)in this way表示“用这样的方式”:

  You must pay attention to your spelling. In this way, you can become a good secretary in time.

  你必须注意你的拼写。这样你才能最终成为一个好秘书。
