一.生词部分
1. f uture n; adj
1) n: 有将来和前途两个意思。

未来展现在我们面前。

to…这样的结构。如：
让我把我的朋友介绍给你。
正：Let me introduce my friend to you.
误：Let me introduce you my friend.
3) 常用词组in future=from now on 今后与in the future 未来，将来
The difference between “in future” and “ in the future” ,
There is an explanation on the internet, “in future” tends to mean “from now on” or “starting right now” ,for example
Don’t do that in future.
以后别在那样做。
In future, make sure the door is never left unlocked.
以后，切记离开房子时千万要锁门。
(That means that the person has left the door unlocked and the speaker gives a piece of advice not to left the door unlocked again)
and “in the future” tends to mean “at some time in the future”
The president will visit china in the near future.
总统进入将访华。
In the future, shopping can be done by videophone.
未来，可以通过可视电话购物。
2. g et married
marry是人生中的一件大事，所以，我们重点研究一下这个词的用法。
1) marry 通常用作及物动词，我们说，和某人结婚，通常会用
He married Bea in 1925.
他在1925年娶了贝雅。
I’m going to ask her to marry me on Christmas.
ask sb to marry sb 求婚
我打算在情人节向她求婚。
She married very early /late. She married young.
她结婚早。
They married in 1995.
他们1995年结婚。
.note: In spoken English, “get married” is more common than “marry”. 在英语口语中get married 比 marry更常用。
2) 用作不及物动词
get married (to sb)
be married (to sb)
Marry是非延续性动词（终止动词）因此，
Marry sb, 娶谁，或嫁给谁
Marry sb to sb(把…(某人) 嫁个…（某人）…)
She married her daughter to a soldier.
她把她的女儿嫁给了一位军人。
表示动作，而不是状态，因此:
错：She married a doctor for two years.
她和一个医生结婚10年了。
be married ( to sb) 表示状态
She has been married to a doctor for two years.*正确
3) 不能用介词with,（如果用了介词with意思就大相径庭了，比如
She got married with four children.她带着四个孩子结婚了）。
report是什么意思
4) 练习：修改错误的句子，
i. she married with a doctor.
she got married to a doctor.
she has been married to a doctor.
ii. She married for three years.
she has been married for three years.
she got married three years ago.
3. h otel      n. 饭店
4. l atest adj. 最新的最近的
The youth like to follow the latest trends in fashion.
年轻人喜欢最新的款式
5. i ntroduce  v. 介绍
刚才讲过，把…介绍给某人，应该用i
ntroduce sb to sb.
练习改正错误：
Professor Li have introduced a assistant for me.
Professor Li has introduced an assistant to me.
二.串讲课文
Let’s talk about the dialogue between a reporter and Miss Marsh, then learn how to Change the direct speech into indirect speech.
Lesson 135 The latest report
最近的报道，这是一篇关于一个记者和Marsh小的对话，我们通过这篇课文学习如何将直接引语转化为间接引语。
Reporter: Are you really going to retire, Miss marsh?
记者说，您真的准备退休吗？marsh小。这里be going to do 一般将来时，表示已经为某事做好了准备，这句话也可以说
will you really retire?
但一般将来时will 显然不如be going to表达的更确切形象。另外，really的用法要说一下，
really是副词，解释为“真正地，确实地”，它通常被使用在be动词、助动词或情态动词的后面，以及实义动词的前面例如，
I really like her.
I’m really tired.
I can really have her driving in three days.
还有一个习语，
not really. (=I’m afraid not)。恐怕不行。
比如我们看一段对话：
”could you put off the meeting” she said. “not really” he answered politely. “this is the only day everyone is available”
available这里是“都有时间的意思”
Miss Marsh: I may. I can’t make up my mind. I will have to ask my future husband.            He won’t let me make another film.
Mars，我有可能会退休。我现在还不能决定，我要问下我的未婚夫。她应该不会让我再演电影了。
I may 是I may retire的省略形式。
I can’t make up my mind, make up one’s mind 下决心，相当于decide，
这里也可以说,
I can’t decide (yet)，
但是decide通常指一般性的决定不如make up one’s mind 下决心这样的形象。have to 不得不。通常是由于外部环境导致的，而不是主观。
he won’t let me make another film.
won’t是will not的缩写，以前将情态动词的时候说过，will可以表示推测，因为这句话翻译为，他应该不会让我再演电影了。
make film 演电影或制作电影，direct film导演电影 shoot film 拍摄电影
去看电影可以说：
go to (the) cinema; go to (the) movies, go to (see) a film ,go to (the) films.
例如：
I went to (see) an awful film, last night. ( exciting, interesting, boring)
昨晚看了一场糟糕的，令人激动的，有趣的，无趣的电影。
Reporter: Your future husband, Miss Marsh?
Miss Marsh: Yes. Let me introduce him to you. His name is Carlos.
We are going to get married next week.
记者说，您的未婚夫？ Marsh回答道，是的，我来介绍一下，他的名字叫Carlos，我们准备下周结婚。这里introduce以及marry的用法已经讲过了不再赘述。接下来，我们
