Lesson 3 Please send me a card100%
Postcards always spoil my holidays.
明信片总是把我的假期搅得不安宁。
spoil 在这里不是“宠坏”，而是“把好心情破坏掉”；always 说明这是一种反复发生的烦恼。
Last summer, I went to Italy.
去年夏天，我去了意大利。
last summer 交代具体时间；went to Italy 开始展开假日背景。
I visited museums and sat in public gardens.
我参观了博物馆，还坐在公园里休息。
visited 和 sat 并列；public gardens 是英国英语里常见的“公共花园、公园”说法。
A friendly waiter taught me a few words of Italian.
一位友好的服务员教了我几句意大利语。
teach sb. sth. 是双宾语结构；a few words of Italian 表示“几句意大利语”。
Then he lent me a book.
后来他又借给我一本书。
lend sb. sth. = lend sth. to sb.；he 指前面的 waiter。
I read a few lines, but I did not understand a word.
我读了几行，但一个词也没看懂。
not ... a word 表示“一个词也不”；和 a few lines 形成反差。
Everyday I thought about postcards.
每天我都在想着明信片的事。
thought about 表示“惦记、考虑”；说明假期里始终有心理负担。
My holidays passed quickly, but I did not send cards to my friends.
假期过得很快，但我并没有给朋友们寄明信片。
passed quickly 写出时间飞逝；send cards to my friends 用 to 引出对象。
On the last day I made a big decision.
到了最后一天，我作出了一个重大决定。
make a big decision = make up one's mind 的情境铺垫；last day 带有“已经来不及了”的压力。
I got up early and bought thirty-seven cards.
我早早起床，买了三十七张明信片。
三十七张是夸张细节，既说明决心大，也为下文失败制造更强反差。
I spent the whole day in my room, but I did not write a single card!
我在房间里整整待了一天，可是竟然连一张明信片也没写！
spend the whole day in ... 是高频结构；not a single card 比 no cards 更强调“连一张都没有”。
