新概念英語(yǔ)第二冊(cè)detectives，近期detectives我專門看detectives了一下，覺得非常適合高中銜接課程。第一，文章精美短小detectives；第二，涵蓋的生詞匯都是高中寫作必備詞匯。我私下揣摩，如果學(xué)生真能讀熟了，寫作表達(dá)絕對(duì)不會(huì)差。沒(méi)有必要追求高大上的表達(dá)，第二冊(cè)的短文語(yǔ)言就是地道自然的輸出。
我于是有個(gè)想法，把新二里面的好詞好句都拿出來(lái)講講，看看這些詞如果在高中寫作中該如何運(yùn)用，還有這些詞在高考單選或者閱讀中又會(huì)主要呈現(xiàn)哪些意思。
當(dāng)然，初中學(xué)生可能很多都學(xué)過(guò)這本書，但是畢竟是基于中考的格局，因此我覺得你還是應(yīng)該聽聽的。
我打算花12時(shí)講完，每個(gè)小時(shí)8篇，因此需要你提前預(yù)習(xí)一下。
祝讀者暑假學(xué)習(xí)愉快。

句中的 hear 即是一種有意識(shí)的活動(dòng)，意謂“聽取”。這種 hear 常用在由 let 引導(dǎo)的句子結(jié)構(gòu)中。再如：

此外，下面句子中的 hear 也都意謂“聽取”或“傾聽”：
