新概念英语第二册课后答案第三十八课
新概念英语第⼆册课后答案第三⼗⼋课 Lesson 381. b根据课⽂第2-3⾏He had often dreamed of retiring in England and …, 可以推测只有b. Spending his old age in England 与Harrison 当时的愿望相符，其他3个选择都不是他所期待的。
2. c根据课⽂第1句My old friend, Harrison, had lived in the Mediterranean for many years before he returned to England, 可以判断出只有c. He had spent so long in the Mediterranean, he had forgotten what it was like 是他为什么不能容忍英国天⽓的原因。
a. It never stopped raining 与课⽂实际情况不太符合，课⽂说总是下⾬，并不是“永远不停地下”；b. it was always cold 虽然与课⽂的内容相符，但不是他为什么不能忍受英国天⽓的原因。
d. he had never lived in England before 与事实不符，更不是原因。
3. a主句是过去完成时，表⽰在过去某⼀时刻之前发⽣的事情，从句应该由连词before引导才合乎时态要求，因此只能选a. before.其他3个都不符合题⽬意思。
4. a主句是过去时，从句是虚拟语⽓，表⽰与过去事实相反。
因此需要选⼀个能引导虚拟语⽓的连词。
a. as though 和d. even if 都可以引导虚拟语⽓的从句，但是d. even if(即使)不合乎逻辑，a. as though( 好像)合乎题⽬意思，所以选a. He acted as though he had never lived in England before ⽽b. like 和 c. as 都不能引导虚拟句。

它经常与一般过去时连用，表示在过去某个动作发生前完成的动作：When I arrived, Jane had left.我到时，简已经走了。
(走发生在我到达之前)与过去完成时连用的表示时间的词或词组有when, after, as soon as, (not) until, by that time, (never) before, already, for, since, just等，另外它还常与连词no sooner…than和hardly…when连用。
(cf.词汇学习)过去完成时不能与副词ago 连用(ago只能与一般过去时连用)：He hadn't finished it by yesterday evening.到昨天晚上他还没做完。
新概念英语第2册Lesson39语法知识点间接引语：间接疑问句在第15课的语法中，我们学习了间接引语的基本形式和间接陈述句的用法(包括时态变化等)。
疑问句变为间接疑问句时有一些独特的规律。
首先引号和问号不再使用。
其次，直接疑问句中的倒装语序在转述疑问句里要还原为陈述句语序(主语+动词)。
同时，如有必要，还需改变时态。
(1)间接一般疑问句转述一般疑问句时必须使用if或 whether，不可省略。
助动词do/does和did在转述疑问句里消失了："Did he go home?"“他回家了吗?”She asked me if/whether he had gone home.她问我他是否已经回家了。

新概念二册第38课Lesson 38
Lesson 38Everything except the weather唯独没有考虑到天气英国位于北纬50度至60度之间，比我国的黑龙江省还要偏北，但气候却温和得多，可以说是冬无严寒，夏无酷署。
这温和的气候首先要归功于热带的墨西哥湾暖流。
这股暖流，有好几百公里宽。
它浩浩荡荡地流向欧洲西北岸，改称大西洋暖流，为英国带来了温和湿润的海洋性气候。
以伦敦为例，冬天河湖极少结冰，一月份的平温气温在4度（摄氏）以上；而夏天又相当凉爽，七月份的平温气温只有17度，早晚常要加件线衣才行。
年降雨量约600毫米，不算太多，但分布比较均匀。
就全国来说，一月份的平均气温约为4至7度，七月份13至17度。
年降雨量西北部山区超过1000毫米，而东南部在六七百毫米之间。
英国的雾气较重，在夏季晴和的好天中，还有薄薄的烟霭；冬季则经常飞雾迷漫，似雨非雨，若烟非烟，这主要是岛国的潮气所致。
至于伦敦过去常见的浓雾，并不完全是自然现象。
由于重视环境保护，那里出现浓雾的次数已大大减少。
这个岛国的气候温和，但天气多变。
英国人常说：“国外有气候，在英国只有天气”，以此来表明这里天气的变化莫测。
的确，在一日之内，忽晴忽阴又忽雨的情况并不少见。
这种天气使人变得格外谨慎，看到一位英国人在阳光明媚的早上出门时穿着雨衣，带着雨伞，外国人可能会感到可笑，但是不久以后他就会为自己的“感到可笑”而后悔。
在英国天气极其不稳定，可能前几分钟还艳阳高照，下一会就大雨倾盆，所以外出应考虑携带防水的外衣或外套，以及雨伞。
英国的下雨的时候很多，一天中经常有好几个天气，又多雾，空气也湿润。
★except prep. 除了except 用于同类之间。
except for 用于不同类的。
apart from 在同类或不同类都能用一、except用于表示同类事物之间的关系，其意为"除……以外"、"除去"。
1. except后面可接名词、代词、动词、副词、介词短语和从句等。

过去他常幻想退休后到英国，并计划在乡间安顿下来。
他刚一回到英国便买下了一幢房子住了进去。
但紧接着他就开始抱怨那里的天气了。
因为即使那时仍为夏季，但雨总是下个不停，而且常常冷得厉害。
在阳光下生活了那么多年的哈里森对此感到惊奇。
他的举动就好像他从未在英国生活过一样。
最后，他再也忍受不住，还没等安顿下来就卖掉了房子，离开了这个国家。
他多年来的幻想从此破灭。
