Unit 9 重点句子解析
1. I guess that people who know how to communicate well with others are happier and more satisfied with their lives.
这句话中的I guess 是主句,后面是that引导的宾语从句;宾语从句中的主语是people,后面又是who引导的定语从句;句式be satisfied with 与be pleased with 同义,意为“对……感到满意”。如:
I think the radio that is made in Shanghai is the best. 我想上海生产的收音机是最好的。
Are you satisfied with what I said? 你对我说的话感到满意吗?
2. We used to study and play together, but ever since last Friday, she hasn’t spoken to me.
used to的意思是“过去经常”,后加动词原形,它可以用于各种人称之后。如:

与used to相似的句式是be used to,它的意思是“习惯于”,后加名词、代词、V-ing形式作介词宾语,并且它有各种时态的变化。如:
She is used to the life here. 她习惯了这里的生活。
