1.过去时、过去完成时、直接引语、转折句式的复合运用
示例1:I entered the hotel manager’s office and sat down.
示例2:I had just lost £50 and I felt very upset.
示例3:‘I left the money in my room,’ I said, ‘and it’s not there now.’
示例4:The manager was sympathetic, but he could do nothing.
2.现在进行时的一种特殊用法
一般情况下,现在进行时就是表示眼下正在发生的事情,但是,有时候,这种意境会被有所夸大,从而赋予了它一种特殊的含义。
示例1:Everyone is losing money these days.(其实丢钱的人还是少数的,但对于说话者来说,可能听到丢钱的事情好几次了,所以,就夸大了一点,变成了人人、随时随刻都在丢钱了!)
示例2:She is always eating.(always一般是与一般现在时配合使用的,但这里很清楚,是与现在进行时配合;其实呢,这个she不可能是什么时候都在吃东西的,但说话者夸大之下我们也可以悟出一些道理来,那就是这个人吃东西的频率还是很高的!)
3.关于It could be worse.
这类说法非常有水平:在表示事情还没有糟糕到顶级的时候这么说,会让人立马感受到说话者的幽默和水准。译成中文可以这样讲:事情还没有坏到顶;还算好;还算幸运。。。
再如:It couldn’t be worse! 简直糟透了!
再如:It could be better. 还没好到顶。// 还可以更好些。
再如:It couldn’t be better! 简直好极了!

A Gambler's(赌徒) Fate(命运)
When the couple(夫妇) arrived in Los Angeles, the husband became fascinated(着迷) by the plush(豪华的) casino(赌场) and started betting on(下赌在。。。上) all the attractions(吸引人的东西). After four days, they had just two dollars left. "Let me go to the casino alone," the man told his wife, "I've got feeling that I'll be lucky today."
Once downstairs, he went to the roulette(轮盘赌博) table and put his last two dollars on No. 14, red. His number won. He continued betting and winning. Within an hour, he had acquired(获得) $5000. Feeling that his luck was about to change, he picked up his chips(筹码) and walked toward the cashier(收银员).
Just before he reached her, he felt one final urge(冲动) to bet. He went back to the roulette table and put everything on No. 10, black. The wheel spun(旋转) round and round and finally stopped on No. 12, red. Heartbroken(伤心欲碎的), the fellow returned to his room.
"Well," his wife asked anxiously(急切地), "how did you make out(进展)?"
"I lost two dollars," he said.
