【Text】

If you park your car in the wrong place, a traffic policeman will soon find it. You will be very lucky if he lets you go without a ticket. However, this does not always happen. Traffic police are sometimes very polite. During a holiday in Sweden, I found this note on my car: 'sir, we welcome you to our city. This is a "No Parking" area. You will enjoy your stay here if you pay attention to our street signs. This note is only a reminder.' If you receive a request like this, you cannot fail to obey it!

参考译文

一旦你把汽车停错了地方, 交通警很快就会发现. 如果他没给你罚单就放你走了, 算你走运. 然而, 情况并不都是这样, 交通警有时也很客气. 有一次在瑞典度假, 我发现我的车上有这样一个字条 : “先生, 欢迎您光临我们的城市. 此处是‘禁止停车’区. 如果您对我们街上的标牌稍加注意, 您在此会过得很愉快的. 谨此提请注意. “如果你收到这样的恳求, 你是不会不遵照执行的!

【课文讲解】

1、If you park your car in the wrong place, a traffic policeman will soon find it.

英语中指每个人/任何人的不定代词通常是 one，但在日常会话中，非正式的 you 更为常用。One can never know what will happen tomorrow.

一个人永远不会知道明天将会发生什么事。

If you make a journey around the world, you’ll see many beauty spots.

如果你进行一次环球旅行的话，你就会看到许多风景胜地。

in the wrong place         不合适的地方

wrong         adj. 不合适的,      right         adj. 合适的

He is the right person who you are looking for.

They met(A met B)in the wrong place at the wrong time.

You met the wrong person in the wrong place at the wrong time.

2、You will be very lucky if he lets you go without a ticket. let (sb.) go                              放开，释放，使自由，让（某人）去

The man won’t let go (of) my arm.         那人抓住我的胳膊不放。

He is very angry now. He won’t let you go easily. without a ticket=without giving you a ticket

If 引导的叫条件句, without 后面的名词也叫条件

without+n.      如果没有……

Without water,fish cannot live.

3、However, this does not always happen.

however=but 然而，however 常常放在句首或句子中都可以，but 习惯放在两个句子之间；but 转折性

语义比较强，however 转折语义比较弱

4、During a holiday in Sweden, I found this note on my car: 'sir, we welcome you to our city. This is a "No Parking" area. You will enjoy your stay here if you pay attention to our street signs. This note is only a reminder.'

on my car         指车的外面

welcome sb. to+地点     欢迎某人来某地

enjoy          v. 享受

I have enjoyed my stay here.         我已经在这儿很快乐了

Enjoy your stay here.         祝你玩得开心

only a reminder==not a ticket

“No Parking”在句中作area 的定语，由若干个词合成的词组型定语有：

a never-to-be-forgotten day        一个永远也不能忘掉的日子

a well-to-do family         一个富裕的家庭

【Key structures】

条件句（Conditional sentences）

if 引导的条件从句指能够发生、可能发生或可能发生过的事件。如果认为将来的事件很可能会发生， 那么 if 从句中要用一般现在时（有时也用其他形式的现在时），主句中用 will（或 shall）加动词形式或其他形式的将来时。

If he is sleeping,don't wake him up.

条件句的主句中的 will 表示肯定如此或几乎可以肯定会如此。如果觉得其“肯定”程度达不到使用 will 的程度，或者如果想表达建议等其他意思，就可以用别的情态助动词来代替  will；条件句中的主句还可以用祈使语气等表示请求、建议等。

You can post these letters if you want to. If it’s fine tomorrow, we can/may go out.

Please let me know if you cant’t come.
