Language points 1. …looking after us was more than a full-time job. …照料我们比做一份全职工作还要辛苦. 这句话的主语是动名词短语looking after us。单个v-ing形式短语在句中作主语时，谓语动词要用单数。句中more than表示“不只是，多于”。例如： He is more than a coach. He is a friend. 他不只是教练，更是朋友。 2. …what’s more, because I was a girl. 而且，我是个女孩。 what’s more表示递进，“然而/还有…… ”的意思，独立使用，既可以放句首，也可以放句中，what’s more后面加逗号。  你应该记住它，更重要的是，应该正确理解它。  You should remember it, and what’s more, you should get it right.  3. Generally speaking, I think life is better today. 总的说来，我认为今天的生活更好了。  generally speaking表示“一般而言，总的说来”。in general也可以表达同样的意思。例如： Generally speaking, we enjoyed the trip. 总的说来，我们这次旅行很愉快。 In general, women live longer than men. 总的说来，女性比男性更长寿。 ... ... ... 总结回顾 本课时主要短语和句型 1. more than 2. what’s more 3. generally speaking 4.
