3. scenery

【点拨】scenery在本句中的意思是“风景,景色”。这句话的意思是“旅程的前几百公里风景非常绚烂”。再如:
She was deeply struck by the beautiful scenery of the West Lake.
【导思】辨析:scenery, sight, view这三个词均含有“风景,景色”的意思,但它们各自的侧重点有所不同:
(1)scenery指某地总的自然风景或景色,尤指美丽的乡间景色,是不可数名词。如:
(2)sight则既可以指场景、眼前看到的景观,又可以指名胜、风景,表示后者的含义时,必须要用复数形式。如:
(3)view通常指从远处或高处看到的景观、景物。如:

5. be short for
Ghan is short for Afghanistan. (Page 23)
【导读】be short for意思是“……的缩写”。这句话的意思是“Ghan 是Afghanistan的缩写”。再如:
【导练】WTO World Trade Organization.
【导思】与be short for相似的另一个短语是be short of,但它的意思是“不足,短缺”。如:
The village is short of water.
6. not … any more
… so they didn’t need the camels any more. (Page 23)
【导读】not…any more表示“不再”。这句话的意思是“……所以他们不再需要骆驼了”。再如:
Why doesn’t she speak to me any more?
【导思】no longer / not … any longer, no more / not … any more都含有“不再”的意思,但它们的用法却不相同。
no longer / not … any longer强调时间和动作的延续,常与表示状态的动词和延续性动词连用,如live, wait, stay, be 等。常用现在时。如:
He’s no longer living here. =
no more / not … any more 则强调数量、次数上不再增加,强调动作终止的结果,因此常与名词或瞬间动词如hear, see, leave等连用。常用将来时或过去时。如:
【导练】Li Lei wanted no more money from his parents. =
He said he would go there no more. =
