Unit 7 Would you mind turning down the music?
would you mind not playing basketball here? 你不要在這打籃球好嗎?
would you mind not wearing those old jeans?
(5)回答do/would you mind…? 提出的問題時,表示允許要說no或not at all等;
如果介意要做肯定回答yes. 或yes,i’m sorry,but i do.等,
如:
--do you mind if i ask you a question? 我可以問你的一個問題嗎?
--no,please do.可以,請問吧。
2. 通常既可用whether 也可用if 表示“是否”來引導從句,常置于see,ask,learn,tell,wonder,doubt,find out等動詞之后。
如:
i'm not sure whether /if i'll have time. 我不敢肯定我是否會有時間。
he asked me whether/if i could help him.
i want to know whether/if he lives there.
只能使用whether的場合
(1)只有whether能用在介詞后面
如:
success depends on whether we make enough effort.
(2)在英語中與or (not) 連用的詞通常是whether
如:
whether we help him or not,he will fail. 不論我們幫助他與否, 他都將失敗。
(3)帶to的動詞不定式前用whether,而不用if
如:
please tell us whether to go or stay here.請告訴我們是走還是留。
they didn’t know whether to agree or keep silent. 他們不知道是應該同意還是保持沉默。
(4)whether可置于句首引導主語從句,而if不能
如:
whether the meeting will be in beijing is not known yet. 會議是否在北京舉行還不得而知。
it's not sure whether he is free. 他是否有時間不確定。
3. get on / get off ( a / the bus,train,boat,plane) 上/下(公共汽車、火車、船、飛機)

she got on / off the bus quickly.
get on還可以表示為:相處融洽、繼續。
如:
get on with your work! 繼續工作吧!
i get on well with all my classmates. 我和所有的同學相處都很融洽。
get的其它的用法:
(1)表示“到達,抵達”,如果后接表示到達某地的名詞,get后面要接介詞to,如果get后接的是地點副詞就可以直接在get后使用。
如:
she got there at six.
她六點鐘到達那里。(there為地點副詞)
when we got to the station, the bus was waiting.
當我們到達車站時,汽車還在等著。(the station是名詞)
(2)get sth. done使;受;讓人做好;經歷;讓;做(該做的事)

(3)get與賓語+形容詞連用,其意思是“使某物/某人成為”
如:
i got my feet wet. 我把腳弄濕了。
it's time to get the kids ready for school. 該給孩子們收拾好去上學了。
