My shoes are worn out.我的鞋穿破了。

Be worn out 表示“穿破了”,这个词组看起来是被动形式,但并不强调被动,强调的是状态或者情况,可以理解为形容词短语。例如:

My clothes are worn out and I have to mend them.

我的衣服穿破了,我得补一下。

这副眼镜我戴很好。

★ That's a bit expensive.

That's a bit expensive.价钱有点贵。

A bit 表示“一点儿”,“有些”,在句中作定语或者状语,相当形容词或者副词。与a little 是同义词。例如:

今天有点冷,你最好多些穿衣服。

如果你多一点努力学习,你就能考试及格。

★ The shop was quite new,for it had opened only the week before.

The shop was quite new,for it had opened only the week before.因上周才开张的,所以商店很新。

I want to go to bed,for I feel tired.

我想去睡觉,因为我感到累了。

"Why didn't you come to school?""Because I was ill."

“为什么你昨天没来学校?”“因为我病了。”

As it is raining,I am not going shopping.

★ They were either too big or too small.

They were either too big or too small.它们不是太大就是太小。

Either…or…表示“不是…就是…”,“或者…或者…”,可连接两个并列成分或句子。例如:

Either you or I am wrong.

不是你就是我错了。

★ They were so pleased to see each other that they forgot everything else.

So…that…表示“如此…以致于…”。so 后面接形容词或副词,that 后面跟一结果从句。例如:

天太冷了,我不得不多穿衣服。
