Lesson 21 Mad or not? Aeroplanes are slowly driving me mad. I live near an airport and passing planes can be heard night and day. The airport was built years ago, but for some reason it could not be used then. Last year, however, it came into use. Over a hundred people must have been driven away from their homes by the noise. I am one of the few people left. Sometimes I think this house will be knocked down by a passing plane. I have been offered a large sum of money to go away, but I am determined to stay here. Everybody says I must be mad and they are probably right. 是不是疯了 飞机正在逐渐把我逼疯。我住在一个机场附近，过往飞机日夜不绝于耳。机场是许多年前建的 ，但由 于某种原因当时未能启用。然而去年机场开始使用了。有一百多人肯定是被噪音逼得离家远去。我是少数 留下来的人中的一个。有时我觉得这房子就要被一架飞过的飞机撞倒。有人曾向我提供一大笔钱让我搬走 ， 但我决定留在这儿 。大家都说我肯定是疯了 ，也许他们说的是对的。 知识要点 1、mad [mæd] n. 狂怒 ；adj. 疯狂的 ；发疯的 ；愚蠢的 ；着迷的 ；狂热的 ；热爱的 ； 巧搭 ：drive sb. mad 让某人发疯 mad as a hatter(形容某人)疯了 a mad old man 一个疯老头 a mad bull 一头疯牛 go mad 发疯 be mad about(for/on)…对…着迷(魔/疯狂) ＝be crazy about be mad about beauties 对美女着魔 be mad about English 对英语着魔 be mad at sb.(sth.)对某人(某事)恼火 as mad as a March hare(形容某人)疯了 辨析 ：mad 疯的(可以是疯狂的 ，也可以是疯了的) ；crazy 疯狂的 ，狂热的(只是一种状态，肯定没病) insane 患精神病的，例 an insane asylum 疯人院 拓展 ：madness n.疯狂 ，发疯 例句 ：They are going bananas. ＝go crazy ＝go mad ＝go insane(变疯了) go ＋adj.结构 ，表示 “变得…” 例句 ：Mad Cow Disease appeared again in the Us last month. 上个月在美国又出现了疯牛病。 2、reason [ri ːz(ə)n] n. 原因 ；理性 ；动机 ；vt. 说服 ；推论 ；辩论 ；vi. 推论 ；劝说 巧搭 ：for some reason 由于某种原因 by reason of 由于… the reason for …is that… …的原因是… the reason for …的原因(the reason for his death 他死亡的原因) reason out of 力劝 ，说服 the reason why sb. does sth. is that …某人为什么做某事的原因是… reaso
