对比：

“抛砖引玉”就好像，先上appetizer。再上main course

“开门见山”：直接上main course

They have all been put to shame by a boy who, while playing truant, travelled 1,600 miles.

亮点赏析：

1）英文中的状语信息通常在头尾，文章为啥会插入到句子中间？

第一，为了意思更加清晰

注意，如果放在最后，有可能造成歧义

区别：They have all been put to shame by a boy who travelled 1,600 miles while playing truant.

第二，为了强调

比如：本课中还有一句：When he woke up next morning, he discovered that the boat had, in the meantime, travelled to Calais.

2）Irony n.反语，讽刺

体会： they have all been put to shame... 包含的Irony

Irony is used when you want to say something that goes contrary to expectations. You use words that are the opposite of what you really mean，often in order to be amusing.

比如：51课,《Reward for virtue》;

56课《Faster than sound》
