原文
参考译文
课文讲解:
title:shopping made easy.
made 为过去分词,有"被"的意思(标题不用于句子,所以标题省略be)
made
make the room clean
make shopping easy

so…as…

once 表示“以前,曾经”时只能与动词的过去式连用:
the temptation to

① they are 与 they were 或 it is /it was等在用不同时态比
they are 与 they were 在用不同时态比
You are more beautiful than you
were.
You look better than you
were.
Is this your car? It was my
car.
You were
worse.
I

I
thought
② 用短than ever before

A
detective recently watched a well-dressed woman who always went
into a large store on Monday mornings.
一名侦探最近注意上了一位穿着讲究的妇女,她总是在星期一上午进入一家大商场
watch

watch sth.
Watch your
head!
“well+动词的过去分词”组成复合形容词,做定语
well-designed

One
Monday, there were fewer people in the shop than usual when the
woman came in, so it was easier for the detective to watch
her.
有一个星期一,当这位妇女走进这家商场时,里面的人比往常少,因此,侦探比较容易监视她。
as usual
so it was easier for the detective to watch her.
(句中用“easier”有潜在的比较含义,it 是形式主语,for sb.中的sb.是逻辑主语
It be动词+形容词+for sb. to do
sth.
The teacher bought a lot of dresses to make her more
beautiful.
(更漂亮, 不用 “more” 时会让人产生误会,用more是表示对别人的尊重)
out of

The
woman first bought a few small articles. After a little time, she
chose one of the most expensive dresses in the shop and handed it
to an assistant who wrapped it up for her as quickly as
possible.
