今日发音练习重点:
1. until 中的un-不是“安”、不是“昂”
2. lose someone 后进同化
3. pay(j) attention 元元连读+/j/
言之有物:
1. 词链儿:Its not until...that...直到…才...
until 与否定词连用,英文是否定的,中文却要用肯定式
句式:It is not until...that...

我直到昨天才知道。
It was not until 1911 that the first of the vitamins was identified.
直到1911年才发现了第一种维生素。
*有until出现的这类句子,英文是否定的,中文却要肯定。根本原因就是until有“终点”的意思,明确包含了“到了这个时间点,情况就发生变化,原先一直没有发生的事这时候发生了”的意思。
★原声例句:Its not until the end that you realize what a magnificent thing she has done.
直到最后你才意识到她做了一件多么了不起的事。
★原声例句:But its not until dawns first light that all of the magnificence of Big Bend is revealed.

2. 词链儿:be about to do XX 即将做某事

电影快开场了。

be about to do表示即将发生的动作,在时间上指最近的将来(时间更紧迫)
be going to do表示将要发生的事情或打算最近要进行的动作
拓展:not be about to do sth 不打算做某事
