3.详细解说
1.“though”在这里的意思是“然而，可是”，多用于口语。作此义讲时，“though”一般置于句尾，例如：It was a hard job; he took it though．（这是份苦差事，可他还是接受了。）Two heart attacks in a year. It hasn't stopped him smoking, though．（他一年犯了两次心脏病。可这还是没有让他戒掉烟。）It sounds like a lot of fun. Isn't it rather risky though?（听起来很有趣，可这是不是有点
儿太冒险了？）
2.“can't help but do sth.”就相当于“can't help (doing) sth．”，意为“忍不住要做某事，控制不住自己（或不能改变自己的行为或
思想而）要做某事”。例如：Lee could not help but agree with her.（李忍不住同意了她的观点。）She couldn't help it if she was
being irrational.（如果她当时不理智，她就控制不住自己。）-Stop biting your nails. I can’t help it．（-别咬指甲了。-我控制不
了自己。）
4.文化洗礼
"Yes" or "No"
据说前几年发生过这样一事件：
一位刚去美国的中国留学生被控涉嫌杀害了他的美国女房东。
在法庭上，法官询问这位中国留学生：
“Did you kill the hostess?”（你杀害了女房东吗？）
留学生回答道：
“No.”（没杀。）
法官又追问一句：
“So you didn't kill the hostess?”（那么就是说你没杀女房东？）
留学生回答说“Yes.”（是我杀的。）
这一回答让法官迷惑不解：一会儿说No．一会儿说Yes．前后矛盾，弄得庭审无法进行下去。
原来，这位中国留学生对英语否定疑问句的回答方式不熟悉，按照汉语习惯进行回答，误用了Yes和No。因此造成了误解。在英语里，不管是回答一般疑问句，还是否定疑问句，使用Yes还是No取决于答案（事实）本身。若做过此事，就用Yes；若没有做过此事，就用No，不能套用汉语的回答方式。因此，这位中国留学生应该自始至终都用No来回答法官的提问。即，法官与留学生完整的对话应该为：
官法: Did you kill the hostess?
学生: No. ( I didn't kill the hostess. )
法官: So you didn't kill the hostess?
掌生: No. ( I didn't kill the hostess.
一言以蔽之，不管对方怎么问，你说Yes还是No取决于事实本身！肯定的事实就用Yes回答，否定的事实就用No回答。
