  Dialogue 1

  英语情景对话1

  DICK: Well, Greg:I might live to sell the farm andgo to the city.

  GREG: Oh, that'd be awful! Will you get a job there,do you think?

  DICK: I don't know.I hope so.

  GREG: Could be difficult at the moment…with things as they are.

  DICK: Mm! Possibly.

  GREG: Would it be possible to find a job around here, do you think? Closer to home, I mean.

  DICK: Mm...perhaps. But I don't think so. It's just about impossible at the moment.

  GREG: Oh, that's a shame!

  DICK: Got any bright ideas?

  GREG: You couldn't get another loan from the bank?

  DICK: Mm. I've thought of that. I've got an appointment with the bank manager on Thursday.It's certainly worth a try.

  GREG: Yeah! And that might tide you over until the drought breaks.

  第三部分:课程

  SPECULATING (Ⅱ) POSSIBILITY推测(Ⅱ) —有可能发生的事情

  表示有可能发生的事情,有许多不同的说法。

  1.用副词perhaps, maybe; possibly,或用形容词possible,或用形容词possible。

  Perhaps it'll rain today.

  Maybe it'll rain today.

  Possibly it'll rain today.

  It's possible it'll rain today.

  这几个词也常用作简短的回答,例如:

  Will it rain today?

  - Perhaps.

  - Maybe.

  -Possibly.

  - It's (quite) possible.

  2.情态动词may,might,could,后面接动词不定式时,不用加to。

  may break soon.

  The drought might break soon.

  could break soon.

  (=It's possible the drought will break soon.)

  请注意,may这个词虽然河以用来比较正式地征求别人的同意,例如 May I borrow your book?但在更多的情况下,是用来表示可能性的。

  第四部分:背景资料

  澳大利亚的旱灾

  最近这两讲讲的是澳大利亚的农场主在发生旱灾的时候遇到的困难。澳大利亚有一个很大的干旱地区,经常发生旱灾。这个干旱地区包括中部的辛普森沙漠,以及其他一些不甚干旱、但雨量不足的地区。实际上全国许多地方都曾不周程度地受到干旱的袭击。1979至1988年,新南威尔士州就经受了一场特别严重的旱灾。

  旱灾一发生,小麦和其他作物都受很大影响,时间长了,连牛羊吃的饲草都很难找到。在这种情况下,农场主便遇到很多难题。他们需要不断地估计形势,以决定是把准备卖掉,还是买粮食和饲草来喂养,还是把它们送到受灾地区以外饲草充足的地方去寄养(agistment)。如果需要寄养,有时就得把牛羊运到几百公里以外的地方,甚至运到另外一个州。在旱灾严重的情况下,要等两三年,在旱灾过去后,才能回来。寄养是很费钱的,不过遇上大旱灾,如果不想把牲畜卖掉,这也不失为一条出路。
