Language points
1.joke
joke作動(dòng)詞，意為“開(kāi)玩笑”。常見(jiàn)用法如下：
(1)You're joking!意為“你一定是在開(kāi)玩笑吧”，表示
對(duì)某人所說(shuō)的話表示不相信或驚訝，也可以說(shuō)“You must
be joking!”如：
Is it true?You must be joking!
是真的嗎？你是在開(kāi)玩笑吧！
(2)joke with sb.意為“和某人開(kāi)玩笑”。如：
He often jokes with me.
他經(jīng)常和我開(kāi)玩笑。
(3)joke about sth.意為“就某事開(kāi)玩笑”。如：
Peter often jokes about my mistakes.
彼得經(jīng)常拿我的錯(cuò)誤開(kāi)玩笑。
joke還可作名詞，意為“笑話；玩笑”，為可數(shù)名詞。常見(jiàn)搭配：tell jokes
意為“講笑話”；make jokes about意為“取笑...”，相當(dāng)于laugh at。如：
The teacher often tells jokes in class.
老師經(jīng)常在課上講笑話。
The other children often make jokes about him.
其他的孩子經(jīng)常取笑他。
2.probably
probably是副詞，意為“很可能地；大概”，它所表示的可能性比較大，表示
有充分的依據(jù)、合乎情理或有望實(shí)現(xiàn)。如:
It will probably clear up this afternoon.
今天下午天氣大概將晴朗。
We're going on holiday soon,probably next month.

3.What...like...?
What...like...?表示“......怎么樣?”，相當(dāng)于how。如：

(=How's the story?)
這個(gè)故事怎么樣？
--It's very interesting.
很有意思。
[注意]
  詢問(wèn)天氣用what和how來(lái)提問(wèn)，how后面不能再接like.
    What's the weather like today?
    =How is the weather today？
    今天天氣怎么樣？
4.better get going!好了，走吧。
better get going相當(dāng)于had better go,意思是“最好現(xiàn)在去/走”。

情態(tài)動(dòng)詞may/might表示可能
如果要表達(dá)“某人可能做某事”、“將來(lái)某事可能發(fā)生”，
可以用情態(tài)動(dòng)詞may或might表示。

     兩天后可能會(huì)多云。

      將來(lái)有一天，我可能去阿拉斯加。
     There may be a few showers,so bring an umbrella with you.
     可能會(huì)有陳雨，隨身帶上傘吧。
注意：may或might的比較
(1)用于疑問(wèn)句，第一人稱(chēng)，表示“征求許可”時(shí)might的語(yǔ)氣比may更加委婉，緩和。
e.g.：May I speak to him now?=Might I speak to him now?
      我現(xiàn)在可以和他講話嗎？
(2)用于陳述句中表“可能”“猜測(cè)”時(shí)，might比may可能性小些。
e.g.:He may come a little later.=He might come a little later.
     他可能晚些來(lái)。
用所給詞的適當(dāng)形式填空
(1)She told me that it might(may)be true.
(2)You might(may)have told him the news if you had known it.
