Lesson 32 Shopping Made Easy
?Text 课文
First listen and then answer the question.
听录音，然后回答以下问题。
Who was the thief??
People are not so honest as they once were. The temptation to steal is greater than ever before -- especially in large shops. A detective recently watched a well-dressed woman who always went into a large store on Monday mornings. 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. 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. Then the woman simply took the parcel and walked out of the shop without paying. When she was arrested, the detective found out that the shop assistant was her daughter. The girl gave her mother a free dress once a week!

?Grammar focus 语法
1.?People are not so honest as they once were.?人们不像以前那样诚实了。
这是一个比较状语从句。句中not so+adj.+as这个结构表示没有……那么……。和not as+adj.+as这个结构表达的意思相同。如：
He is not so tall as his father.
=He is not as tall as his father.
他没有他父亲高。
not so/as+adj.+as的结构也可以和than引导的比较级的句子进行替换。如：
He is not as tall as his father.
=He is less tall than his father.
People are not so honest as they once were.
=People are less honest than they once were.
2.?The temptation to steal is greater than ever before -- especially in large shops. 偷窃的诱惑力比以往任何时候都要强烈--特别是在大的商店里。
句中动词不定式to steal作为后置定语，用来修饰temptation，表示偷窃的诱惑力。又如：
The temptation to smoke is strong for him.
对他来说吸烟有很强的诱惑力。
3.?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。
这是一个定语从句，句子who always went into a large store on Monday mornings.用来修饰前面的名词woman。
well-dressed表示穿着考究的，类似的还有well-educated受过良好教育的，well-behaved行为端庄的。如：
He is a
