由于練鼓而引起這樣的糾紛是很少見的。楊明的鄰居們說處于這樣的噪音中他們快要被逼瘋了。如果早知道他們的鄰居是一位鼓手，他們就不會搬進這座大樓了。他們剛一般進去，噪音就開始了，而且他們幾乎沒有睡過一個安穩(wěn)覺。如果不塞住耳朵他們就不能休息或者看書。一個鄰居還聲稱楊明是個酒鬼，對他未成年的兒子是個壞影響。[助讀講解]①此句是部分倒裝，否定詞no，never,seldom,little,hardly等置于句首，句子用部分倒裝。②此句是虛擬條件句，使用了倒裝語序；正常語序Iftheyhadknown...。③nosooner,rarely,neither等置于句首，句子用部分倒裝。Intheend,thelocalcouncil(委員會)tookaction.“Itwasonlyaftercarefulconsiderationthat④wegaveYangMingawarning，”acouncilmembersaid.“Gettingenoughsleepisimportantforpeople'shealthandaftersuchachorusof⑤plaints,wehadtotakeaction.”最后，當?shù)氐木游瘯扇×诵袆?。“在慎重考慮之后我們給了楊明一個警告，”一名居委會成員說，“得到充足的睡眠對人們的健康很重要，在收到如此一致的投訴之后，我們不得不采取行動。”[助讀講解]④本句是“It＋is/was＋被強調(diào)的部分＋that＋其他部分”的強調(diào)句型，此處強調(diào)時間狀語onlyaftercarefulconsideration。⑤achorusofsth.齊聲，異口同聲。YangMing'sdeparture(離去)haspleasedhisneighbours.“Lifewillgobacktonormalnow，”theysay.ForYangMing'sversionofthestory,wefoundhiminthelounge(休息室)ofhissuite(套房)atShanghai'sHolidayInnHotel.YangMingfeelsthathisrightshavebeenignored.YangMinghatesbeingcalledanalcoholic,butitisthefactthatpeoplehaveclassified(把……分類)hismusicas“noise”thatupsetshimmost⑥.Otherwisehedoesn'treallymindhavingtoleavehisapartment.“LivinginahotelmeansamaidmakesmybedeverydayandIdon'thavetodomyownlaundry(洗衣房)！”Buthowlongwillthehoteltoleratehim?Wewonder.楊明的離去使他的鄰居們很高興。他們說：“現(xiàn)在生活將會恢復(fù)正常了。”為了知道楊明對此事的看法，我們在上海假日酒店楊明的套房的休息室見到了他。楊明覺得他的權(quán)利被忽視了。楊明討厭被人叫做酒鬼，但是實際上最讓他傷心的是人們把他的音樂歸類為“噪音”。否則的話，他根本不介意要離開自己的公寓?！白≡诰频昀镆馕吨蟹?wù)員每天為我整理床鋪，我甚至不用自己洗衣服！”但是我們想知道酒店可以容忍他多久。[助讀講解]⑥本句是強調(diào)句，強調(diào)主語fact，fact后的that引導(dǎo)同位語從句。GrandpajailedafteroneshowertoomanyEighty-year-oldretiredtailor(裁縫),JamesMcKay,spentSaturdaynightinjailafterhittingthirty-year-oldKeithSmithovertheheadwithhiswalkingstick.McKay'swife,LaurenetoldusthatwhileMcKayisusuallyapeacefulperson,hehadbeendriventothisactofviolencebygettingwetjustoncetoooften⑦.在多次被澆之后老爺爺遭監(jiān)禁80歲的退休裁縫詹姆斯·麥凱，在用手杖打了30歲的基絲·史密斯的頭部之后，在監(jiān)獄里度過了星期六的夜晚。麥凱的妻子勞倫娜告訴我們，麥凱通常是一個很平和的人，他是因為多次被淋濕才被迫做出這樣的暴力舉動的。[助讀講解]⑦that至句末是told的賓語從句。從句本身又是一個主從復(fù)合句；while引導(dǎo)讓步狀語從句，意為“盡管”。SmithlivesabovetheMcKaysanditappearsthatnotonlyisheakeengardener,heisalsoafishcollector⑧.Unfortunatelyforhim,thewaterhesentoverhisbalconyeverydayendedupontheMcKay's,ortoooften,ontheMcKaysthemselves.史密斯住在麥凱一家的樓上，看起來他不僅熱衷于園藝，還是個魚類收藏家。不幸的是，他每天在陽臺上澆的水最終都落在麥凱家，或者經(jīng)常落在麥凱夫婦身上。[助讀講解]⑧notonly...butalso...結(jié)構(gòu)中，notonly置于句首，句子用部分倒裝?！癋orthelastfortnight,sinceSmithmovedintotheflataboveus,wehavehardlydaredgoontoourbalcony，”saidLaurene.Sheaddedthatitwasn'tsomuchthewaterfallingontotheirbalconyfromSmithwateringhisplantsthatbotheredthem⑨，itwasmorethewayhecleanedhisfishtanks.“We'dbesittingtherehappilyreadingournewspapers,when⑩suddenlysomuchwaterwouldefromabovethatwe'dbeaswetasifwe'dshoweredwithourclotheson!Neithercouldwegetridofthesmelloffish！”勞倫娜說：“自從史密斯搬進我們樓上的房間，在過去的兩個星期里，我們幾乎不敢去自己的陽臺?！彼盅a充道，其實使得他們真正煩惱的不是史密斯?jié)不湓陉柵_上的水，而是史密斯清潔魚缸的方式?！拔覀儽緛碜谀抢镩_開心心地看報紙，突然間很多水從天而降，我們就好像穿著衣服洗澡一樣全身濕透！而且魚腥味很難除掉?！盵助讀講解]⑨本句是復(fù)合句；add后that引導(dǎo)賓語從句，從句使用了強調(diào)句，強調(diào)主語somuchthewater。⑩現(xiàn)在分詞短語作sitting的伴隨狀語。bedoing...when...是固定句式，表示“正在做……突然……”。AndonSaturdayeveningitwasjusttoomuch.“ItwasJames'birthday，”explainedLaurene,“andI'dmadehimabirthdaycake.Thecandleswereagreatsightasyoucanimagine,butJamesdidn'tgettoblowthemout.”而星期六晚上的事情就太過分了。“那天是詹姆斯的生日，”勞倫娜解釋說，“我為他做了一個生日蛋糕，你可以想象到那些蠟燭是多么壯觀的一個景象，但是詹姆斯沒有能夠吹滅它們?！盜nstead,SmithemptiedoneofhislargertanksoverhisbalconyandboththeMcKaysandthecakewerewetthrough.RarelyhadLaureneseenMcKaymovesofast.“Icouldn'tstophim.Hewasupthereinaflash(瞬間)．ItwasthefastestI'dseenhimmovesince1964.”,相反，史密斯在他的陽臺倒空了一大缸水，麥凱夫婦和蛋糕全都濕透了。勞倫娜幾乎沒有見過麥凱跑得那么快?！拔易柚共涣怂x那間，他就在那兒了。那是自1964年以來我所看到他跑得最快的一次?！盨mithisnotgoingtotakethingsfurtherwiththepolice.Hehasalsopromisedtochangehiswaysfromnowon.AndwhatofJamesMcKay?？Asheleftthepolicestationalargecrowdofsupporterssanghim,“HappyBirthday”．“Definitelythemostexcitingbirthdayever！”saidthecheerfuloldman.“ThebestsincemyadolescenceI'dsay！”
