A : Rachel , I'd like to go through the program for Thursday again,
just to make sure that everything's all right.

B : Okay. We've arranged for a car to pick up Mr. Schmitt and his
colleague at the airport. They're due to arrive at 8:30.
B :好的。我們已經(jīng)安排汽車到機(jī)場去接Schmitt 先生和他的同事。他們定
于八點半到達(dá)。
A : They'll only have hand luggage , so they should be coming into
the Arrivals Lounge soon afterwards. How will they know which car is waiting
for them?

「Note」
1. go through 這個詞組有很多意思,今天我們來了解其中的幾種:
a ) To examine carefully 仔細(xì)查看,審查(對話中就是這個意思~ )
eg: go through the students' papers檢查學(xué)生的試卷
b ) To experience; to suffer經(jīng)歷,遭受eg: go through many wars
經(jīng)歷很多戰(zhàn)爭 go through tremendous pain 遭受巨大痛苦
c ) To be approved or accepted 被通過,被接受eg: The amendment went
through.修訂案被通過了。
d ) To consume ; exhaust用完,耗盡eg: We went through our supplies
in a day. 我們一天就把供給品用完了。
2.對話中的 due的意思是“預(yù)定,約定,預(yù)期”,相當(dāng)于 scheduled, arranged,
expected等,常用“be due to + 動詞”的形式。
而我們知道due 還有個介詞短語叫due to,它的后面是接名詞或代詞,表示
“應(yīng)歸于,應(yīng)屬于,應(yīng)給予”,相當(dāng)于 caused by sb/sth 或者 because of sb/sth.
例如:Her absence is due to illness.她因病缺席。
The game has been cancelled due to frost. 比賽因霧而取消。
3. count是個很好用的單詞,除了有我們熟知的“數(shù)數(shù)”的意思外,它還能
表達(dá)(sth ) be of value or importance“某樣?xùn)|西有價值,有重要性”。例
如:Her opinion counts because of her experience. 因為她有經(jīng)驗,所以她
的意見很重要。
We've only a few bullets left , so make each one count.我們只剩幾
顆子彈了,因此要彈不虛發(fā)。(此句中的 make each one count就是指 use it
effectively )
