  2. 拓展范例
  e.g. Whether we go to Paris is in the air.

  e.g. It was something one felt in the air.
  这只是不明确的感觉而已。
  e.g. She walked away and left the question hanging in the air.
  她走开了,将疑问留在人们心里。
  e.g. Something unspoken hung in the air between them.

  玛丽不用功读书, 却花时间去幻想。
  e.g. What he is talking about is just a castle in the air.
  他所谈论的一切,只不过是空中楼阁。
  第四,咬文嚼字
  1. 表示还有什么东西剩余,余留的没有,可以用情景剧中的句型:
  Is there something left.
  Ps: left是过去分词做后置定语。
  2. 表示“为某人核实某事”,可以用情景剧中的“check sth. for sb.”。
