1. There is a big gap between the lives of the rich and the poor.

[解读] blind(失明的),deaf(聋的),disabled(残疾的),healthy(健康的) / sick(病弱的), living(活的) / dead(死的), rich(富有的) / poor(贫穷的),unemployed(失业的)以及其他某些说明人的性格或状态的形容词,前面加the时可以代表一类人。这一表达方式具有复数含义,所以动词也用复数形式,代词则用they。如:

The poor get poorer; the rich get richer.穷者愈穷;富者愈富。

They are building a school for the deaf and the dumb. 他们要为聋哑人办所学校。

2. Since then I have kept in touch with my new friends by writing letters.

[解读] (1) since then意为“从那时起”,通常与动词的现在完成时连用,指从过去某一时刻起到现在为止的一段时间。如:

She has lived here since then. 从那时以来,她就一直住在这儿。

Since then, the forests have grown.从那以后,森林成长起来了。

(2) keep in touch with意为“和……保持联系,保持接触”。如:

When they got there, they immediately got in touch with the embassy. 他们一到那里便与大使馆取得联系。

3. If a child fails to attend school, a government official will visit his or her home to find out why.

[解读] (1) fail to do sth. 意为“没能做到某事,未能做成某事”。 never fail to do意为“必定,未忘记……”如:

He never fails to write to his mother every week.他从来没有忘记每周给他母亲写信。

(2) find out意为“找出、发现、 查明”,多指通过调查、寻问、打听、研究之后 “搞清楚、 弄明白”,通常含有 “经过困难曲折”的含义,指找出较难找到的、无形的、抽象的东西。如:

Read this passage, and find out the answer to this question. 读这篇短文,找出这个问题的答案。

4. After the age of sixteen, students can either find a job or continue onto Higher Education.

[解读] either... or... 意为“或者……或者……、要么……要么……”,可用来连接两个在语法功能上相同,在结构上相称的并列成分。当它连接两个并列主语时,谓语应与or后面的主语在人称和数上保持一致。类似的结构还有neither... nor... , not only... but also... 等。如:

Either you or I am right. 不是你对,就是我对。

Neither dad nor my brother helps. 爸爸和哥哥都不会帮忙。
