体裁:记叙文 题材:人与动物 主题:忠犬守护主人
【语篇解读】 本文讲述了一只叫Kelsey的狗狗在主人Bob不慎在雪地中滑倒伤到脖子无法动弹时,用身体为主人取暖,并且还不断吠叫希望能引起别人的注意,最终Bob获救。
【难句分析】 Expecting a journey of only several meters, Bob was wearing just long johns (衬裤), a shirt and slippers when he went outside, although the temperature was around -4℃.
分析:这是一个复合句。Expecting a journey of only several meters为现在分词短语作状语;主句中有一个when引导的时间状语从句及although引导的让步状语从句。
译文:Bob认为只有几米的路程,出去的时候只穿着衬裤、衬衫和拖鞋,尽管(外面的)温度大概是零下4度。
