第39课AmIallright?

1、WhileJohnGilbertwasinhospital,heaskedhisdoctortotellhimwhetherhis

operationhadbeensuccessful,butthedoctorrefusedtodoso.

inhospital表示住院,不加任何冠词

whether引导宾语从句,修饰tell

so是代词,代前文中所说的tellhimwhetherhisoperationhadbeensuccessful

2、,

inquireabout打听什么

We'llinquireintothematterassoonaswecan.

inquireinto调查

Sheinquiredaftermymother'shealth.

inquireafter问候

=amannamedJohnGilbert

3、

himthathewouldhavetostayinhospitalforanothertwoweeks.

and连接两个并列句

两个并列句又分别有,由when和that引导的宾语从句

beallowedto是被动语态

foranothertwoweeks可以换一种说法:fortwomoreweeks

4、Heaskedhisdoctortotellhimwhetherhisoperationhadbeensuccessful.

要求某人做某事

ask询问,后面跟宾语从句

今天的内容就这样。
