The organizer made an opening speech at the beginning of the conference; at the end the main speaker gave a summary.
5．Then for a period of several weeks we practise doing the play．
【問】在句子中，period表示什么意思？動(dòng)詞practise后可以跟動(dòng)詞不定式嗎？
【答】period在此表示一段時(shí)間。A period of several weeks的意思是“幾周時(shí)間”。再如：鶤n hour is a period of time while one o'clock is a point in time．一小時(shí)是一段時(shí)間，一點(diǎn)鐘是一個(gè)時(shí)刻。鶰y mother lived in Shanghai for a period of time．我母親在上海住過一段時(shí)間。另外，period還可以譯為“時(shí)期”、“時(shí)代”。例如：鷗he Tang period唐代鶧uring the later period of the nineteenth century十九世紀(jì)后期鷓ractise是及物動(dòng)詞，作“練習(xí)”解，后面跟名詞或動(dòng)詞-ing形式作賓語，不能跟不定式作賓語。例如：鶺e practise entrances and exits．我們訓(xùn)練入場(chǎng)和出暢）鶷he teacher asked us to practise writing summaries．老師要我們練習(xí)寫摘要。
6.The timing is very important, not only for the movements but also for the lines of the dialogue．時(shí)間的安排和掌握，不僅對(duì)于動(dòng)作，而且對(duì)臺(tái)詞都非常重要。
1) line表示“（劇本的）臺(tái)詞”，常用復(fù)數(shù)形式。如：鶷he actor often forgets his lines．那位演員時(shí)常忘記臺(tái)詞。鶷hese lines are easily learnt by heart．這些臺(tái)詞容易記磚2) not only．．．but also．．．是并列連詞，意為“不但……而且……”，主要用來連接兩個(gè)并列成分（主語、謂語、賓語、表語和狀語）和分句，強(qiáng)調(diào)后者。如：鶱ot only the students but also the teachers have gone to the Great Wall．不但學(xué)生，而且老師都已經(jīng)去長(zhǎng)城了。鶫e has not only knowledge but also experience．他不但有學(xué)問，而且有經(jīng)驗(yàn)。鶶he is not only clever, but also hardworking．她不但聰明，而且勤奮。另外，not only．．．but also．．．用來連接兩個(gè)主語時(shí)，其謂語動(dòng)詞和靠近它的主語保持人稱和數(shù)的一致。
7.I’ve chosen the main actors and we intend to put it on next January．
我已經(jīng)選好了主要演員，打算明年一月上演這出戲。
intend意為“打算，意圖”，常用于intend to do結(jié)構(gòu)。如：鶺hat do you intend to do in the summer holidays﹖你打算暑假干什么？注意：had intended to do相當(dāng)于intended to have done表示過去有此打算，但未能實(shí)現(xiàn)。如：鶬 intended to have finished the work last week．我原本打算上周完成工作的。（實(shí)際上未完成）鷌ntend還可作“意指”，通常用被動(dòng)語態(tài)。鶷his new book is intended for children．這本新書是給兒童讀的。鶷his was intended to be a picture of a cat．這幅畫本來是畫貓的
8．particular; especial; special
particular著重指同類事物中某一個(gè)具有獨(dú)特性質(zhì)的事例，是相當(dāng)“一般”而言的“特殊”、“特定”。如：鶲n that particular day the stores are closed．在特定的那一天店鋪都關(guān)了門。（平時(shí)沒有這種現(xiàn)象）鷖pecial和especial都有“特殊的，特別的”之意。如：鶺hat are your special interests﹖你有些什么特別的愛好？鶦ollecting stamps is a matter of especial interest．集郵是特別有趣的事。不同的是，special還有“專門的，額外的”的意思。如：鶼ou need a special tool to do that．干那個(gè)活兒要用專用工具。鶷ake special care of it．對(duì)這東西要特別細(xì)心。
9．very; right; just
三者都含有“正好；就是”之意，但very是形容詞，用來修飾名詞，位于the, this，my等限定詞后；right和just作副詞，用來修飾謂語（常為動(dòng)詞be）或作狀語的介詞短語等，須放在the, this，my等限定詞之前。如：鶤t the very beginning of this term, they took an exam．就在學(xué)期開始的時(shí)候，他們舉行了一次考試。鶫e is just the actor I want．他正是我所想要的演員。鶷he police looked at the thief right in the eye．警察目不轉(zhuǎn)睛地盯著小偷。
