# 第一册 Lesson 103 The French test 法语考试

## 一、课文原文

GARY: How was the exam, Richard?

RICHARD: Not too bad. I think I passed in English and Mathematics. The questions were very easy. How about you, Gary?

GARY: The English and Maths papers weren't easy enough for me. I hope I haven't failed.

RICHARD: I think I failed the French paper. I could answer sixteen of the questions. They were very easy. But I couldn't answer the rest. They were too difficult for me.

GARY: French tests are awful, aren't they?

RICHARD: I hate them. I'm sure I've got a low mark.

GARY: Oh, cheer up! Perhaps we didn't do too badly. The guy next to me wrote his name at the top of the paper.

RICHARD: Yes?

GARY: Then he sat there and looked at it for three hours! He didn't write a word!

## 三、语法知识点

### too, very, enough 的用法对比

| 词 | 含义 | 位置 | 语气 | 例句 |
|----|------|------|------|------|
| too | 太，过于 | 形容词/副词前 | 超出适当程度（负面） | It's too difficult for me. |
| very | 非常 | 形容词/副词前 | 程度深（中性） | The questions were very easy. |
| enough | 足够 | 形容词/副词后 | 达到所需程度 | It wasn't easy enough for me. |

**too... for sb. 对某人来说太……**：
- The questions were too difficult for me. 这些题目对我来说太难了。

**... enough for sb. 对某人来说足够……**：
- The papers weren't easy enough for me. 试卷对我来说不够容易。

**enough 的位置**：
- enough 放在形容词/副词之后：easy enough, fast enough
- enough 放在名词之前：enough money, enough time

### too... to... 太……以至于不能……

> The questions were too difficult (for me) to answer.

= The questions were so difficult that I couldn't answer them.

## 四、重点句型分析

### 1. How was the exam? 考试怎么样？

> How was the exam, Richard?

- How was...? 询问某事的情况
- 回答：Not too bad. 还不算太差。

### 2. I think I passed in... 我认为我通过了……

> I think I passed in English and Mathematics.

- I think (that) + 从句，表示个人看法
- pass in + 科目，表示某科及格

### 3. ...weren't easy enough for me ……对我来说不够容易

> The English and Maths papers weren't easy enough for me.

- 否定句 + enough：不够……
- for me 表示"对我来说"

### 4. Cheer up! 振作起来！

> Oh, cheer up! Perhaps we didn't do too badly.

- cheer up 鼓励用语
- too badly 在否定句中表示"不太差"

## 五、课文翻译

加里：考试怎么样，理查德？

理查德：还不算太差。我想我英语和数学及格了。题目非常容易。你呢，加里？

加里：英语和数学试卷对我来说不够容易。我希望我没不及格。

理查德：我想我法语考试不及格了。我能回答十六道题。它们很容易。但我回答不出其余的题。它们对我来说太难了。

加里：法语考试太糟糕了，是不是？

理查德：我讨厌法语考试。我肯定分数很低。

加里：哦，振作点！也许我们考得不算太差。坐在我旁边的那个人只在试卷顶部写了自己的名字。

理查德：是吗？

加里：然后他就坐在那里看了三个小时！他一个字也没写！

## 六、语言点精讲

1. **pass 与 fail**：pass 表示"通过考试"，fail 表示"不及格"。pass in English 英语及格；fail the French paper 法语试卷不及格。

2. **the rest 的用法**：the rest 表示"其余的"，可指人或物。the rest of the questions 其余的题目。the rest 作主语时，谓语取决于所指代的名词。

3. **too 与 very 的区别**：too 带有"过分"的含义，暗示不好的结果；very 只是程度副词，本身不含褒贬。too difficult 暗示无法做到，very difficult 只是说很难。

4. **enough 的两种位置**：enough + 名词（enough time），形容词/副词 + enough（good enough）。这是中国学生容易混淆的考点。

5. **幽默结尾**：最后加里说的笑话，那个人只在试卷上写了名字就坐了三个小时，一个字也没写，暗示他比自己考得更差。

## 七、课后练习要点

1. 掌握too, very, enough三词的用法区别

3. 了解enough在名词前和形容词后的不同位置
