一．快捷识记
1．We are so used to them that we often do not even realize how many we see and hear in a day. 我们已经对广告习以为常了，以至于我们常常忽略了一天看过或听过多少广告。
在So + adj. / adv. / v. + that…. 结构中，平时较为见的是so后面加形容词或副词，本句的结构中的so是对be used to something / doing something这一动词短语的修饰。
He was so happy that he even jumped up and down.
他是如此的高兴以至于都上窜下跳了。
The boy ran so quickly that his mother couldn’t catch up with him.
那男孩跑得如此之快以至于他的妈妈都赶不上他。
The good news so excited the crew that they set sail at once.
这个好消息使全体船员如此的激动以至于他们马上就起航了。
2. We must not fall for this kind of trick. 我们(消费者)不能跌入这样的（消费广告）陷阱。
fall 在此句中意为“be cheated or be played trick on”
fall 还有意思为“失去地位或垮台”
The government fell after the revolution。
fall还可以作为联系动词，相当于become/turn
She fell silent at the key moment, thus the talk broke down half way.
在关键时刻她突然变得默不作声，这让和谈半途而费。
3. China began a nationwide public service advertising campaign in 1996, and since then various types of PSAs have appeared around the country. 中国在96年展开了一场公共广告服务的运动，从那时候起，大量的公益广告在全国涌现。
nationwide = all over the nation
campaign = series of planned activities with a particular social aim “运动”
an advertising campaign 广告宣传运动 / an election campaign 竞选运动

Grammar and usage
一、快捷识记
（一）陈述句
如果引述的句子原是一个陈述句，在变成间接引语时要注意以下几点：
1．在引语的开头用连词that

→ He told his mother that sister is in her room.
2. 根据意思改变人称
He said to me: “I have left my book in your room.”
→ He told me that he had left his book in my room.
3. 注意引语中的谓语与句子主要谓语在时态上一致
ary said, “I’m getting on well.”

If a boy brought him poor, careless work that was not the best the boy could do, my grandfather would pick up the boy’s book and throw it across the room, shouting, “Do it all again, and bring it back to me in the morning!” If the boy was late, or if he forgot to bring the book, he had to do it again, and yet again. y grandfather never forgot.

Happiness
Happiness means different things to different people. For example, some students believe that if they have much money or large possessions, they will be happy. They believe that they will be able to do anything they want to if have much money. Some students think that they should be in good health, and enjoy whatever they like. any students wish to have much wealth from their parents. In this way they don’t have to work hard, and they can own everything. I don’t quite agree with the above points. I don’t think money means happiness. We can’t buy many of the things with money, such as health, happiness, and knowledge. I value knowledge, which makes me happy, for I can do much for mankind with knowledge. Although different people value happiness differently, my “wealth” of happiness is my study.
