Notes on the text课文注释
1 No, not yet.不.还没有。
这是简略回答,完整答是He hasn't moved to his new house yet.
2 He's a very nice person.他是一个非常好的人person是指人。当需要表示复数形式时,往往用people这个词。如后面的一句话 When will the new people move into this house?
3 Please give him my regards. 请代我问候他。
4 No. he didn't want to leave…是对上一句话的证实。由于上一句话中用了否定形式,因此.在证实时句中的动词不可模仿前一句话的形式,而要根据事实来决定。但在译成汉语时,No就要译成肯定的意思,如:"是的.他不想离开。"
Lesson 92 When wiil...?什么时候要…?

课文详注 Further notes on the text1.We'll all miss him. 我们大家都会想念他的。
all,大家,全部,指3个或3个以上的人或物;指两个用both。这里的all作we的同位语。
2.…but his wife did. …可是他妻子离开。
句中did代替上文中的 wanted to leave。
语法 Grammar in use
一般将来时
(1)一般将来时表示将来某一时刻的动作、状态以及打算。该时态一般与表示将来意义的时间状语连用,如tomorrow(明天),this month(本月), the day after tomorrow(后天),next week (下周), in two days' time(两天之后), from now on(从现在起),in the future(将来)等。
(2)一般将来时的形式为 will/shall+ 动词原形。
will可用于所有人称,但shall仅表示单纯将来时用于第一人称I和we,作为will的一种替代形式。

I shan't leave tonight. I'll leave tomorrow.
今天夜里我不走。我将于明天离开。
They won't go to London this weekend.

此外,will除了表示纯粹的将来时间外,还表示说话人的意图和意愿,而shall除了表示将来时间外同时还表示说话人的责任或决心。

She is going to travel by air.

也可用来表示有迹象某事即将发生。如:
It's going to rain.
将要下雨了。
