The Olympic Games

The Olympic Games will be held in our country in four years' time. As a great many people will be visiting the country, the government will be building new hotels, an immense stadium, and a new Olympic-standard swimming pool. They will also be building new roads and a special railway line. The Games will be held just outside the capital and the whole area will be called ‘Olympic City’. Workers will have completed the new roads by the end of this year. By the end of next year, they will have finished work on the new stadium. The fantastic modern buildings have been designed by Kurt Gunter. Everybody will be watching anxiously as the new buildings go up. We are all very excited and are looking forward to the Olympic Games because they have never been held before in this country.

一般将来完成时（The future perfect simple tense）

（1）在第12课和第13课的语法中，我们学习了一般将来时和将来进行时。一般将来时除了可以用来预言将来发生的事以外，还可以表示“意愿”，如允诺、建议、请求、提议等：


将来进行时除了表示最近或不久的将来正在进行的动作外，还可以表示计划或安排好的事：


（2）将来完成时用于表示到将来某一时刻已经完成的动作：


将来完成时由will have+ 过去分词构成。它常与by和not…till/ until+ 表示时间的名词连用：

The Olympic Games will be held in our country in four years' time, so the government will be putting up new buildings just outside the captital. Kurt Gunter has designed the buildings and workers will have completed the new stadium by the end of next year. The Games will be held in this country for the first time and we are looking forward to them. (65 words)

满眼全是你的名字，别人的名字都看不到了呀！

这一共就咱们几个人，大家就不用客气了。
我想起一首，叫什么来的……
我的眼里只有你，没有他……

1. Both my brother and I are going to the Olympic Games.
both...and 后应该是are呢?还是am?

呵呵，井冈山唱的我的眼里只有你！

现在流行就近原则，选am比较好！

当both…and， either…or和neither…nor连接主语时，谓语动词与后一个主语保持一致：
找到了，是这样子的！

按着第25课的说法http://post.iask.ca/canadameet/topic/34775，后面应该是am.
在文件里给的参考答案是 are.

按语法要求 am 正确。按个人习惯，我愿意说 are.
本来就是个习惯问题。谁有正解还望通告一下。

我觉得读are顺口，所以就~~~~~~

不过从语音顺口来看，选am说起来比较顺口。

珠珠已经告诉你，要用 a…… m
我也觉得别扭，但没办法。

铜子们知道偶多不容易：听录音的时候，偶抱着老公的秋裤飞针走线地干活。他的松紧带太紧了，我把三条裤裤的松紧带组合成2条裤裤用，今天加班好让人家明天穿的舒服一点~~~~~~
