Module 1 谈论你对未来的希望

law school 法学院
Peace Corps 和平队
energy 能量
jealous 嫉妒
your whole future 你的全部前途

I filled out 15 job applications after I graduated. 毕业后，我填了15份应聘表。

2. 嵌入式问句

I've been thinking about my future. 我一直在思考自己的未来……
where I want to go 我想要去的地方
who I want to be 我想成为什么样的人
what I want to do 我想要做的事情
I don't know what I want. 我不知道自己想要什么。

嵌入式问句
在普通的 'wh' 问句中，动词位于主语之前。
Where is the law school? 法学院在哪里？

嵌入式问句包含于陈述句或问句之中，所以主语位于动词之前。在交谈中，以 think 和 know 引导的嵌入式问句很常见。
Do you know where the law school is? 你知道法学院在哪里吗？
I don't know where the law school is. 我不知道法学院在哪里。

将嵌入式问句与普通的 'wh' 问句进行比较。
What should I do? 我应该怎么办？
I've been thinking about what I should do. 我一直在思考我应该怎么办。
Where are the application forms? 申请表在哪里？
Do you know where the application forms are? 你知道申请表在哪里吗？

在 if 从句中，第一条件句可以有多个条件，在 will 从句中有多个结果。注意不必重复 if 和 will 表示第二个条件和结果。

真实条件句还可以用 think 和 believe 等动词进行修饰。注意：在这些句子中，that 用不用均可。

如果结果分句出现在于 if 之前，则无需逗号(,)。
