Text AAn impressive English lesson Ex.1 Understanding the text

1、Because he is tired of listening to his father and he is not interested in grammar rules.

2、 The civilization of

Greece and the glory of Roman architecture are so marvelousand

remarkable that they should be described at least in a brief account。 however, what the student

could do was only one single utterance : “whoa! ” without any any specific comment.

3、Because the schools fail to set high standards of language proficiency. They only teach a little

grammar and less advanced vocabulary. And the younger

teachers themselves have little

5、He familiarized his son with different parts of speech in a sentence and discussed their

7、The author uses “ road map ” and “ car”to describe grammar and vocabulary. Here, “road

interjection“ whoa! ”reflects the tremendous pride the father had toward his sonit also reflects。

the author 's humor in using the word because it was once used by his student, though in two

different situations and with two different feelings.
