课文详注 Further notes on the text

1．do the football pools 下足球赛的赌注
football pools 是英国流行的一种赌博方式，靠在足球比赛结果上的赌注来决定输赢。

2．What will you do if you win a lot of money? 如果你赢了许多钱，你打算做什么呢？

if you win a lot of money是一个表示条件的状语从句。在英文中，条件是指某一事情（状语从句中的动作）实现之后其他事情（主句中的动作）才能发生，通常译为“假如”。如果条件状语从句用于询问或谈论十分可能发生的事情，那么条件状语从句中常用一般现在时，而主句中则用一般将来时。 a lot of既可与可数名词也可与不可数名词连用。（请参见本课语法部分。）

3．buy sb. sth.= buy sth. for sb.

4．see the world 看世界
travel round the world 周游世界
二者有异曲同工之处。

5．What'll we do then? 那时我们怎么办呢？
句中then意为“到那时”（指将来）。

6．a pleasant dream 一个美好的梦

7．depend on 取决于，依靠

语法 Grammar in use

第1类条件句
如果我们认为将来的事件是可能发生的，就可用第1类条件句去描述将会发生什么事或不会发生什么事。其基本结构是：If 一般现在时 将来时（或情态助动词），如：

If it rains tomorrow, we won't go to the seaside.
如果明天下雨，我们就不去海边。

if从句中的现在时表示需具备的条件，主句中的shall/will将来时表示可能的结果。具备的条件是真实的，可能真的下雨。

如果是这样，它就会有真实的结果。这就是为什么这样的陈述句常被称为“开放”条件句或“真实”条件句的原因。事实上，在第1类条件句中，一切现在时态都能用在if之后，而不仅仅是一般现在时。请看例句：

If he falls ,he'll hurt himself.
如果他摔倒了，他会伤着自己的。

If you don't hurry ,we'll miss the train.
你要是不赶紧点儿，我们就会误了火车。

If you feel better, you can get up.
你要是感觉好些了的话，你就能起床了。

If I am better tomorrow, I will get up.
如果我明天感觉好些了，我就起床。

If I have a headache, I will take an aspirin.
我要是头疼的话就会服用一片阿司匹林。

If I can afford it, I will buy it.
要是我买得起的话我就会买它。
