IX. Language points

1. Why don’t you like the cat?                                    

Why don’t you 动词原形，还是一种提建议的句型。 意为“为什么不……呢？”

e.g. Why don’t you take a walk? 你为什么不去散步呢？

    Why don’t you drink some tea? 为什么不喝点茶呢？

“Why don’t you   动词原形”? 的同义句可以说：

Let’s …   

e.g. Let’s take a walk. 让我们去散步吧。

    Let’s drink some tea. 让我们喝点茶吧。

2. He can walk on two legs.

walk on… 表示“用某种方式行走”。

e.g. walk on one’s hands 表示“用手倒立行走”

   walk on one’s knees 表示“跪着走；跪着向前挪动”

   The children like to walk around the house on their hands and knees.

孩子们喜欢手脚并用在房子里爬来爬去。

3. Well, because she’s kind of boring.

kind of有几分……  相当于一个副词，后面多跟形容词 。

e.g. They’re kind of scary. 他们有点可怕。

The pandas are kind of cute. 熊猫有点可爱。
