Sentence Patterns
1. Go through the gate and you’ll find the entrance to Bear Country on the other side. 穿過大門，你就可以在門那邊找到通往熊國的入口了。
祈使句+and主謂句，這種句子含義相當于if引導的條件句+結果句。上述句子可改為：If you go through the gate, you’ll find the entrance to Bear Country on the other side. 又如：Study hard and you will pass the exam. 努力學習你就會通過考試。Have a look and you'll know what it is. 看一眼，你就知道那是什么。Use your head and you’ll find a way. 如果動動腦子，你就會想出辦法來。 Keep on trying, and you’ll succeed. 如果你不斷努力，你就會成功。該句型還可用or表達。or表示“否則”，從反面來預測一個結果。Hurry up or you'll be late for school.等于If you don't hurry up, you will be late for school.
2. We don't think there is anything of interest in your pictures.
of+由形容詞轉化的抽象名詞，相當于形容詞。something of interest = something interesting; a matter of importance = an important matter 又如：The meeting is of importance. = important ； The book is of no use. = useless
在高一我們學過“轉移否定”: I don’t think you have met Professor Johnson. I don’t believe his new idea is correct.
