二、语法讲解
1 They were talking loudly.
这个句子里使用了“be动词过去式+现在分词”的形式，也就是过去进行时态。
过去进行时表示发生在过去的某个动作或状态。
过去进行时主要用于以下几种情况：
(1)表示过去某个时间正在发生的动作。例如：
What were you doing at nine o'clock last night?
你昨晚九点在干什么？
(2)过去时间的背景描述：
在叙述过去某个事件时，事件本身的过程用一般过去时，而作为事件背景的描述则通常用过去进行时。例如：
It was raining hard that afternoon. And people and cars were going back and forth in the street. I picked up an umbrella, opened the door, and went out...
那天下午雨下得很大，大街上车和行人来来往往。我拿起伞，打开门，走了出去......
(3)不及物动词如get，become，turn，begin等，用过去进行时态可以表示过去正在发生的变化，含有“逐渐、越来越……”之意。例如：
I found that the leaves were turning yellow.
我发现树叶变黄了。
(4)过去进行时在口语里的特殊用法：
①表示委婉、客气的语气。一般来说，过去进行时要比一般过去时更礼貌。
I was wondering if you could me?
我在想，你能帮我一下吗？
②只描述动作而不指明谁是动作的发起者。
I was arguing with Jack when his father came in.
Jack的父亲进来时我正在和Jack吵架。
比较：I argued with Jack. (这里的“I”是主动者)
③过去进行时在特定的句子里也可表示过去将来的时间。
He told me that he was leaving for Japan the following week.
(那时)他告诉我下周他要去日本。

2 I got very angry.
get 变得
I am/was angry. (陈述事实)
I got angry. (强调变化过程)
got取代be动词。got是半联系动词，可以直接加形容词。
As you get old, your memory gets worse.
当你变老的时候，你的记忆力会变差。
几种“变成”的区别
become, get, grow, turn, go, come
这些动词均可表示“变成，成为”之意。
become: 最普通用词，作为连系动词，指从一个状态向另一个状态的变化。
get: 常指某人或某物有意无意地获得引起变化的因素，结果使变成另一状态。
grow: 常指逐渐地变成新状态，强调渐变的过程。
turn: 侧重指变得与原来截然不同，有时含贬义。
go: 作为连系动词，通常与形容词连用，指进入某种状态，从而发生变化，多指不好的状态。
come: 侧重变化的经过或过程，多用于不良情况。

3 说话的时候喜欢用缩略：I'm not， he isn't， they aren't
  书面表达的时候多会写：I am not,    he is not,    they are not

4 hear：听见 hear+人：听见某人的话
I couldn't hear you. Beg your pardon?
我听不见你说的话，能再说一遍吗？
hear同see，watch，feel，notice等感观动词一样，其宾语后所接的不定式不含to。
I often hear her sing.
我常听到她唱歌。
但是，hear用于被动语态时，不定式中要含to。
She is often heard to sing.
人们经常听到她唱歌。
两种”听“的区别
hear通常表示某种声音“进入我们的耳朵”。是听到、听见的意思，但不一定指有意识地听。
listen (to)用来表示注意正在持续发出的声音。这个词强调集中注意力，想尽量听清楚，是有意识的一种行为。
Can you hear me?
你能听见我说话吗？
