## 四、重点句型分析

1. **I may. I can't make up my mind.**
   - may此处表示"可能"，省略了retire
   - can't make up my mind 无法做决定

2. **I shall have to ask my future husband.**
   - shall have to 将不得不
   - future husband 未婚夫

3. **He won't let me make another film.**
   - let sb do sth 让某人做某事（let后接不带to的不定式）
   - won't = will not

4. **Let me introduce him to you.**
   - introduce A to B 把A介绍给B
   - Let me... 让我……（祈使句）

5. **She said she would have to ask her future husband.**
   - 间接引语：shall → would；my → her；have to保持不变

6. **He'll be her sixth husband!**
   - sixth 第六（序数词）
   - will be 将是

## 五、课文翻译

**记者：** 马什小姐，您真的要退休吗？

**马什小姐：** 可能吧。我无法做决定。我得问问我的未婚夫。他不会让我再拍电影了。

**记者：** 您的未婚夫，马什小姐？

**马什小姐：** 是的。让我把他介绍给你们。他叫卡洛斯。我们下周就要结婚了。

**凯特：** 看，米莉！这里还有一篇关于卡伦·马什的报道。听着："卡伦·马什：最新消息。马什小姐今天在伦敦旅馆告诉记者们她可能退休。她说她无法做决定。她说她将不得不问问她的未婚夫。她说她的未婚夫不会让她再拍电影了。然后她把卡洛斯介绍给我们，并告诉我们他们下周就要结婚了。"

**米莉：** 那真是轰动性新闻，不是吗，凯特？

**凯特：** 确实是。他将是她的第六任丈夫！

## 六、语言点精讲

1. **间接引语中情态动词的变化**：may→might, can→could, will→would, shall→should/would。这些变化属于"时态后退"原则的一部分。

2. **let的用法**：let sb do sth，let后接不带to的动词不定式。如：Let me go.（让我走。）Don't let him do that.（别让他那样做。）

3. **introduce A to B**：把A介绍给B。注意介词用to。如：Let me introduce myself to you.（让我向你做个自我介绍。）

4. **get married**：结婚。get + 过去分词表示状态的变化。如：get dressed 穿好衣服，get lost 迷路。marry作及物动词时直接接宾语：She married Carlos.（她和卡洛斯结婚了。）

5. **the latest**：最新的。late的比较级和最高级：late → later → latest。注意latest不同于last（最后的）。the latest news 最新消息，the last news 最后一条消息。

6. **certainly**：确实，当然。用于表示强调赞同。= of course, surely。

## 七、课后练习要点

1. 将含情态动词的直接引语变为间接引语
2. may→might, can→could, will→would的变化练习
3. let sb do sth的用法

5. get married与marry的用法区别
