考点解析

1. I am afraid that I have to tell you the bad news. 很抱歉，我要告诉您一个坏消息。

整个句式是一个习惯表达法，用以表示遗憾地必须地不得不地说出不好的事情，这个用法超重要，一定要会有。（注意这里的the 不可以换为a）

have to，表示客观上不得不，必须；而主观上并非愿意。注意，must,强调主观上“必须”如：

It’s a pity that we have to leave now.我们现在必须离开了，真是遗憾。

We must cut down the expenses.我们必须削减开支。

2. Something incredible happened to me last weekend. I had a car accident and thus broke my legs. 这个周末我发生了一件令人无法置信的意外，我出了车祸，并且弄断了腿。

something incredible令人无法置信的意外

当形容词修饰something、anything、nothing等词时，习惯后置；注意，在形容词修饰不定代词something，anything，nothing ，everything，everyone, anybody 复合不定代词等时后置；available修饰名词时，也通常后置，如 there is no seat available.小结：

普通形容词修饰不定代词时要后置，如：something important

I ’ d like something cheaper. 我想买点较为便宜的东西。

Is there anything good on TV tonight? 今晚电视有好节目吗?

Nobody decent will go there. 正派人不会到那里去的。

2） 表语形容词作定语时也要后置。Do you have a room available

tips？

表语形容词指的是一般只做表语的形容词，大多以a开头，即首字母为a

如: asleep, afraid, awake

3）若不是单个的形容词，而是一个形容词短语用作定语，则必须后置。如：

Is the room big enough for a party? 这个房间容得下一个晚会吗?

I think he is a man suitable for the job. 我认为他是适合做这项工作的人。

例外：第一，必须把something当作名词来用；第二，something必须带定冠词或不定冠词：He felt the presence of an unknown something.

二、我们就顺便来看下，英文中“请假”的各种说法，以及一些周边小常识。

说到假期的英文，很多人第一反应是 holiday，但其实，

英文中，假期的说法有好几个，而且内涵差很多。今天一起来学习下吧。

holiday, vacation, days off, leave 比较

· holiday：是指因宗教节日或国家喜庆日而设立的法定“假日"。

Christmas holiday is the biggest holiday in many Western countries.

在很多西方国家，圣诞节是最重要的假期。

· vacation：一般指大学的假期

summer vacation 暑假

winter vacation寒假

· days off：纯粹指不用上班，休息的日子，例如周末。

· leave：通常必须是自己申请的休假

· break：指短暂的休息，比如课堂休息、开会休息

下面来看看，在职场上，假期的种类。

各种假期说法

annual leave年假

maternity leave产假

faternity leave陪产假

sick leave 病假

personal leave事假

marriage leave婚假

funeral leave丧假

menstruation leave 生理假

leave for religious holidays宗教假

在正规的公司上班，员工请假的事由大概就是以上这些了。

annual leave 视公司和个人在职年限而定，一般在5-20天不等。

maternity leave一般是98天，产前可以休假15天；难产的，增加产假15天；生育多胞胎（mutiple births），每多生育1个婴儿，增加产假15天。

faternity leave，也就是男人请的陪产假，全国各地都不同，一般在7-30天之间。

marriage leave，各地区差别也很大，一般在10-30天

funeral leave一般为1-3天

menstruation leave：姨妈假，非强制性假期，一般0.5--1天

除了这些假期，还有--

轮休rotate days off

调休 leave/ time off in lieu [lju:]

* in lieu 是代替的意思，leave in lieu 就是替换的休假，也就是调休了。

那么，说到请假，该用什么短语和句式表达呢？

请假 ask for leave

准假 grant leave

超假 overstay one’s leave

告假 on leave

带薪休假 paid leave

批假 approve ones leave

休假 have a holiday

延长假期 extend ones leave

申请休假 submit a request to take the leave

休假中 on holiday/on one’s holiday/ take holiday

再来看看，英文中请假，有哪些句式呢？

常用句式

most commonly used expressions

He has a day off today.

他今天请假一天。

She had two weeks off because she was ill.

因为生病了，她请假两周。

Can I have 3 hours off today in lieu of the 3 hours of overtime I worked last night?

昨天晚上我加班了3个小时，今天我能调休3小时吗？

Do I get time off in lieu if I work overtime on the holiday?

如果假期我加班，我能获得调休吗？

下面我们来看看，如何表达休假理由。

病假理由

sick leave

I don’t feel well./ I am feeling sick./ I am unwell./ I am not doing too well.

我不太舒服。

I have been feeling very run down lately.

最近我有点虚弱。

I think Ive caught a bug.

我觉得我是感冒了。

I have a bad headache.

我头疼。

I have a sore arm.

我胳膊疼。

那么，请假了，一般都要做好交接工作。

这种表达如何说呢？

工作交接

useful expression

fill in for someone

fill in 是填空的意思，fill in for sb 就是为别人顶板，暂时代替别人

Well have to find someone to fill in for Francis tonight as hes ill.

费朗西斯病了，我们得找个什么人今晚顶替他。

cover for somebody代替某人

Can you cover for me on Friday because I am gonna visit my aunt that day.

星期五能不能请你替我个班，那天我要去看阿姨。

最后，给大家看两组请假条的书写方式，

大家下次可以参考用起来。
