Language points

1. You should hurry up. hurry作动词，可表示“赶快；匆忙”。其中hurry up在口语中常用来表示催促。 Practise 快点，否则你会迟到的。 Hurry up, or you’ll be late. 快点吧，要不然你今天准会迟到。 You must hurry up, or you'll be late today.

hurry作名词，可表示“仓促；匆匆忙忙”，常用be in a hurry to do sth.表示“着急做某事”。 Practise 你干嘛这么着急要走？ Why are you in such a hurry to leave? 他匆忙地想出门，完全把带伞的事抛到脑后了。 He is in such a hurry to get out that door that he forgets his umbrella completely.

2. —The book report is due in two weeks. — Yes, I know… due为形容词，意思是“预定；预期；预计”。后面引出预期的时间、地点等，还常构成短语be due (to do sth.)或be due (for sth.)。 Practise 我们的火车预计8:30到达北京车站。 Our train is due at Beijing Railway Station at 8:30.

Lucy二月份就要开始上学了。 Lucy is due to start school in February. 你们的期末考试预定在下个月。 You are due for the final examination next month.

I know表示说话人对所谈的观点、内容已了解，无需多说，相当于汉语中“我早知道了；我全都了解”这样的意思，区别于许多日常交际场合中表示“我明白了；我知道了；我懂了”的用法。如： A: It’s already late. You should get some rest. B: Well, I know. Thanks.

当我们获知对方提供的信息后，常用I see. 表示“我知道了；我明白了；我懂了”。 1. A: He lives in the countryside but works in the city during the week. B: Oh, I see. 2. —What is a photo? —It is a picture of you. —Oh, I see. Thank you!

3. Have you at least read the back of the book to see what it’s about? 此句中动词see表示“(通过查看、打听等)弄清、了解；查看、发现(信息或事实)”。作这种用法时，see常接how, what, when等引导的宾语从句。 Practise 他同意跟我去了解一下毛病出在哪里。 He agreed to go with me to see what was wrong.

Revision hurry up be in a hurry to do sth. be due to do sth. / be due for sth. I know. / I see. see表示“(通过查看、打听等)弄清、了解；查看、发现(信息或事实)” 时常接how, what, when等引导的宾语从句。
