Insteadoflendingahand,helaughedatus.他不僅沒有幫我們一把,反而嘲笑我們。

instead單獨(dú)使用的時(shí)候是副詞，常用于句末。如：

We’venocoffee.Wouldyouliketeainstead?我沒有咖啡了，喝茶行嗎？Languagepoints

不過，用instead的句子也可以改成insteadof。如：

Sheneverstudies.Instead,sheplaystennisallday.=Insteadofstudying,sheplaystennisalldays.她成天打網(wǎng)球，而不是學(xué)習(xí)。2.stayup:①remainawake不睡覺，與late/deep/farintothenight連用。如：Thesecretarystayeduplateintothenight,preparingareportforthepresident.②挺住，站住，聳立

Theseoldbuildingsstillstayupaftertheearthquake.3.afterall①（副詞）畢竟；仍然

Don’texpecttoomuchofhim.Afterall,heisonlyachild.②終究；最終

Hedidn’tworkhard,buthepassedhisexamsafterall.4.mixup…with…①使弄不清：使混亂,混淆如：

Hisexplanationjustmixedmeupmore.Ialwaysmixupthetwins.他的解釋令我更加糊涂了。我總是把這對(duì)雙胞胎弄混。②toinvolveorimplicate牽涉或牽連

Hegothimselfmixedupwiththewrongpeople.他與那些壞人為伍。Skillsbuilding3:planningaletterofreplyWheneveryoureceivealetteraskingforadvice,itisimportanttoplanwhatyouaregoingtowrite.Thiswillhelpyouunderstandwhattowriteandhowtowriteit.Withplanning,yourletterwillbemucheasiertowrite,andmoreuseful.Herearesomesuggestionstohelpyouinyourplanning.FindthemainpointsoftheletteraskingforadviceAnswereachofthesepointsdirectlyDonotgiveadviceforpointsnotdiscussedintheletterOffercomfortandsupport.DonotfindfaultwiththepersonyouarewritingtoUsemodalverbssuchasshouldormust,phrasessuchasmakesure,orimperativestogiveyouradvice.Step3:writingaletterofadviceReadthefollowingletterfromLruZhen'sson,whoisaskingforadviceabouthisfather.DearDrFangIreadyourmagazineeverymonth,Imyselfamateenager,almost16,andhavesomeproblemsathomethatIhopeyoucanhelpmewith.ThemainproblemisthatIcan'tgetalongwithmyfather.WheneverIwanttodosomethingorsuggestanidea,suchasarestaurantwecangotofordinner,hedoesn’tlistentome.Then,whenIrefusetolistentohim,heshoutsatmeangrily.HeandmymotheralwaysmakemedothingsIdon'tlike,suchasplayingthepianoanddoinghousework.Then,wheneverIhavesomesparetimeandwanttobealone,theycallmeselfishanddistant!MyfathergetannoyedifIplayforeignmusic.Also,everytimeIwatchaDVDhesendsmetobedortellsmetospendmoretimesyudying.Heevenforbidsmefromchattingwithmyfriendsattheinternetcafe!IIovehimalot,butIdon'tunderstandwhyheissohardonmeandwillnotrespectthethingsIwanttodo.Hewasonceateenager-heshouldunderstandmebetterthanhedoes.BestwishesLiuXiaoweiWritealetterofadvicetoLiuXiaowei.DearXiaoweiManyteenagershavediffcultygettingalongwiththeirparents.______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________Thisisacommonproblem.However,bepatientwithhim.Yousaythathediesnotlistentoyou.Isthiswhyyounotlistentohim?Ofcourse,yourfatherwillbeangrywhenthishappens!Itisonlynatural.Youmustlistentoyourfather–helovesyouandwantsthebestforyou.Youshouldtalkwithyourparentsinordertoexplainhowyoufeel,butyoushouldgivethemachancetospeakfirst.Itcouldbethatyourfatherdoesn’tlistentoyoubecausehedoesn’tthinkthatyouarelisteningtohim.Itistruethatyouneedtimetobebyyourself.However,partofbeinganadultisdoingthingsthatyoushouldmakeanefforttodowhatyourparentsask.Itwillnothurtyou.Andofcourse,youmustdoyourhomework!Yourstudiesareimportanttoyourfuture.Bothbeingateenagerandbeingaparentcanbeverydifficult.However,don'tgiveup.Withalittlebitofpatienceandcommunication,manyoftheseproblemscanbesolved.BestwishesDrFangHomework1.Revisewhatyouhavelearntinthispart.2.Role-playthedialogueinagroupofthree.
