【Text】

As we had had a long walk through one of the markets of old Delhi, we stopped at a square to have a rest.

After a time, we noticed a snake charmer with two large baskets at the other side of the square, so we went to have

a look at him. As soon as he saw us, he picked up a long pipe which was covered with coins and opened one of the

baskets. When he began to play a tune, we had our first glimpse of the snake. It rose out of the basket and began to

follow the movements of the pipe. We were very much surprised when the snake charmer suddenly began to play

jazz and modern pop songs. The snake, however, continued to 'dance' slowly. It obviously could not tell the

difference between Indian music and jazz!

参考译文

当我们穿过旧德里的市场时走了很长一段路, 我们在一个广场上停下来休息. 过了一会儿, 我们注意

到广场的那一边有一个带着两个大筐的耍蛇人, 于是就走过去看看. 他一见我们, 就拿起了一个长长的上

面镶有硬币的管乐器, 并掀开了一个筐的盖子. 当他开始吹奏一支曲子时, 我们才第一次看到那条蛇. 它

从筐里探出身子, 随着乐器的摆动而扭动. 当耍蛇人突然又吹奏起爵士乐和现代流行乐曲时, 我们感到非

常惊奇. 然而那蛇却还是缓慢地“舞动” 着. 显然, 它分辨不出印度音乐和爵士乐!

2、When he began to play a tune, we had our first glimpse of the snake.

play a tune(tune 可数名词);play music(music 不可数名词)

have/get/catch a (first) glimpse of… 一瞥,一看

This afternoon I caught/got/had a glimpse of Debbie and Dan walking together in the park.

take a glimpse at 瞥见

3、It rose out of the basket and began to follow the movements of the pipe.

rise(rose,risen) vi. 升

raise(raised,raised) vt. 提高

4、We were very much surprised when the snake charmer suddenly began to play jazz and modern pop songs.

很少用very much 放在一起修饰surprise, 一般用very surprised 或most surprised

5、It obviously could not tell the difference between Indian music and jazz!

tell 表示“辨别、分辨、识别”时常与can,could,be able to连用。表达这些意义时,tell 可以单独使

用,也可以与from构成词组:

My son can already tell the difference between beer and wine.

=My son can already tell beer from wine. 我儿子已经能分辨出啤酒和葡萄酒了。

表示两者之间的“差别、差异”时常用difference between:

There’s a lot of difference between Englishmen and Frenchmen.

What’s the difference between them?

有些情况下也可以不跟between:

It makes no difference whether you believe me or not. 你信不信我区别不大/都无所谓。

【Key structures】

“have +名词”代替普通动词

“have +名词”代替普通动词表示“完成该动作”:have a bath=bathe ;have a swim=swim;have a

walk=walk;have a look=look;have a rest=rest;have a smell=smell 等,类似的动词有dance,fight,ride,

talk,sleep,wash:

I had two dances with Lucy.

Jim and I have just had a long talk.

一个动词的后面会加介词(如果这个动词是不及物动词),动词能加什么样的介词,名词也可以加什么样

的介词:

look at->have a look at; walk across->have a walk across

succeed in doing sth.-> be successful in->success in
