每课一句：新概念第2册第26课

今天我们接着来看第27课的“每课一句”。

一、课文原文

Lesson 27 A wet night

Late in the afternoon, the boys put up their tent in the middle of a field. As soon as this was done, they cooked a meal over an open fire. They were all hungry and the food smelt good. After a wonderful meal, they told stories and sang songs by the camp fire. But some time later it began to rain. The boys felt tired so they put out the fire and crept into their tent. Their sleeping bags were warm and comfortable, so they all slept soundly. In the middle of the night, two boys woke up and began shouting. The tent was full of water! They all leapt out of their sleeping bags and hurried outside. It was raining heavily and they found that a stream had formed in the field. The stream wound its way across the field and then flowed right under their tent!

二、每课一句

The boys felt tired so they put out the fire and crept into their tent.

这句话中的so与下一句话中的so有所不同：

Their sleeping bags were warm and comfortable, so they all slept soundly.

其不同点在于so前面有没有逗号。

关于so前面要不要加逗号，说法不一，但比较普遍被接受的用法为：

1、当so被用作并列连词时，意思是“因此，所以”，用来表因果关系，相当于therefore，前面常用逗号隔开。如：

The dog was hungry, so we fed it. 狗饿了，所以我们喂了它。

2、当so被用作从属连词时，意思是“因此；以便”，用来表结果或目的，相当于so that，前面一般不用逗号隔开。如：

I gave you a map so you wouldn't get lost. 我给你一张地图，这样你就不会迷路了。

而课文中的“The boys felt tired so they put out the fire and crept into their tent.”这句话中的so，相当于so that，所以前面没有加逗号。

而另一句“Their sleeping bags were warm and comfortable, so they all slept soundly.”中的so，相当于therefore，所以前面加了逗号。

三、更多拓展

As soon as this was done, they cooked a meal over an open fire.

本句话中的从句as soon as this was done表示“他们一搭好帐篷”，注意句中的done是形容词化的过去分词，表示“完成了的”。比如：

You may go, provided your work is done. 只要你做完工作就可以走了。

从基本意思表达上看，从句中的this was done可以改为：they had done this，即：

As soon as they had done this, they cooked a meal over an open fire.

作者之所以不采用they had done this，其中一个主要的考虑因素是：本课的重点语法内容为一般过去时，所以整篇课文的每个句子的谓语动词都采用的是一般过去时。
