Lesson 38   Everything except the weather
【课文讲解】
1、He had often dreamed of retiring in England and had planned to settle down in the country.
dream of…     想, 梦见(梦想)，幻想，向往
 think of…      想(思维的活动), 考虑
settle down      定居，安身，安顿

 2、He had no sooner returned than he bought a house and went to live there.
no sooner…than…  一……就……(关联词，引导时间状语从句，主句里常用过去完成时，than后面的从句用一般过去时)，相同用法的还有as soon as，the moment，on doing
had no sooner done…than +一般过去时, 固定用法 (时态结构 : 完成时态 + than + 一般过去时)
no sooner放在句首就要倒装

3、Almost immediately he began to complain about the weather, for even though it was still summer, it rained continually and it was often bitterly cold.
almost immediately 几乎马上, 很快地 (时间上的快, 常用于写作)for(连词)表示因为(解释说明, 附加的)＝because因为(一定要说的原因)，for与because不同，不能用于句首，并且在for后面必须重复主语：I don’t have a car, for I can’t afford it.
even though =even if  即使，虽然(让步状语从句)

4、After so many years of sunshine, Harrison got a shock.  so many years   这么多年
got a shock   吓了一跳, 吃了一惊

5、He acted as if he had never lived in England before.
as if+句子  似乎, 好像(引导表示方式的状语从句，如果从句为过去完成时则是虚拟语气，描述与事实相反, 后面的条件是假的)
He acted as if he was poor. (as if 后是真是假, 应根据上下文来看)连词as if/though引导方式状语从句，通常跟在描述行为举止的动词之后，如act，appear，feel，look，smell，sound等后面：
  She acted as if she were mad.  (虚拟语气)

 6、In the end, it was more than he could bear.
more than在这里表示“超过……的范围”
  It was more than I could understand.
I can't affard it. ＝ It was more than I can affard.
这种用法与它通常表示“比……更多”的用法稍有不同：There were more than ten people in the room.

7、He had hardly had time to settle down when he sold the house and left the country.
hardly…when…     还没来得及……就……，用法同no sooner…than. hardly had sb. done when…  (hardly在句首, 要倒装)
He had hardly opened his eyes when he was knocked out.(knock out : 打晕, 击倒)
have time to do sth.     有时间做某事
