[size=3][b]　　　[/b] NOTES TO THE TEXT[/size]
[size=3]This text is about how to make an announcement.（本课要告诉大家如何作口头通知）[/size]
[size=3]I have a few things to tell you. 我有几件事情要说一说。
不定式短语to tell you作定语，修饰前面的a few things，二者在意义上有动宾的关系；tell与show相似，可以接双宾语，tell sb. sth.是“告诉某人……事”。[/size]
[size=3] 例如：Tell me the truth. 把实话告诉我。[/size]
[size=3]Hello, everybody. I have a few things to tell you.
通知常用的开头语还有：
Listen, everyone, I have something to tell you. 请大家注意，我有一些事要说。（listen在此为引起注意，不必翻译成“听着”）；
Please be quiet everyone! I have an announcement to make. 请大家安静一些，我有一个通知要讲。
Attention, please, I have an important plan to announce. （attention也是用以引起注意）
May I have your attention, please? 请大家注意一下。（语气更委婉、客气）[/size]
[size=3]Tomorrow afternoon there will be a talk on current affairs by a reporter from the People’s Daily.
will be是动词be的一般将来时态，will是助动词。
介词on，by，from的用法：on表示“关于……的内容”；by表示“由……做”；from交代“从……来”，说明来源。例如：
a paper on Chinese painting 一篇关于国画的论文
the books by Lu Xun 鲁迅的著作
前面不加介词的时间状语（在表示时间的名词前面带有修饰语的情况下一般不加介词）：
tomorrow afternoon 明天下午
this morning 今天早上
yesterday evening 昨天晚上
next week 下个星期
例外：on Sunday afternoon 在星期天下午
本句因为强调a talk, 所以在结构上以a talk为主语，但在形式上也可改为：A reporter from the People’s Daily is going to give a talk on current affairs tomorrow afternoon.[/size]
[size=3]They will come to our class at 2 p.m.
介词to表示方向；at 2 p.m.下午两点钟。p.m.是拉丁文缩写，表示“下午”，放在钟点的后面，相当于“in the afternoon”；相应的，用a.m.表示“早上”或“上午”（用法同p.m.）[/size]
[size=3]If you have any questions about Japanese students’ life, you can discuss with them when they come.
这是主从复合句， you can discuss with them是主句，If you have any questions about Japanese students’ life是一个条件从句，when they come是时间状语从句。
discuss是及物动词，但在这里用作不及物动词；介词with表示“和……”[/size]
[size=3]One more thing: the day after tomorrow our class team will have a basketball match with Class Three.
the day after tomorrow 后天；the day before yesterday 前天；the week after next 下个星期；
to have a match with 和……进行比赛；[/size]
[size=3] 例如：Our class team will have a basketball match with Class Three. 这里Class Three = the team of Class Three 三班的班队，与前面our class team相对应。[/size]
[size=3]Let’s all go and cheer for them.
cheer除“欢呼、喝彩”外还有其它用法：
可用于祝酒语，例如：Cheers! 干杯！
还可构成短语cheer up，意思是“高兴起来，振作起来”，例如：Cheer up! Everything will be fine. 振作一点，一切都会好的。[/size]
[size=3]That's all. Thank you.
结束语：That’s all. Thank you. 要说的就这些，谢谢大家。和“That’s all.”意思相同的惯用语还有：That’s it.[/size]
