这件事发生在大约一小时之前。
I just finished coming from the ticket checker thingy
我刚从检票口办完手续回来
and I was hungry since I hadn’t eaten breakfast.
还没有吃早饭，感到饥肠辘辘
So I wanted to buy some food.
所以我想买点吃的。

I spotted at chocolate croissant and water calling my name
我发现一只巧克力可颂面包和一杯矿泉水正呼唤着我

so I ordered it and went to get my money.

于是我点了这份餐，准备拿钱付账
But I had put my money in my bag being put on my plane
可是我的钱在钱包里，钱包已经装在包里寄存了
so I had no money.
于是此刻我身无分文
I was going to tell the cashier
我正准备向收银员说明情况

but the woman and her daughter intervened
没想到一位女士和她的孩子打断我
and offered to buy my food.
提出要为我付款

I thanked them graciously.
我万分感激，连连道谢
We were going to the same boarding gate
我们去了同一个登机台

so I repaid them with a song on my Baritone ukulele.

我用自己的尤克里里为她们弹奏了一支曲子作为报偿
They made my day and I really appreciate the human race right now.
她们让我这一天都充满了幸福感，此刻我觉得人性是多么温暖啊！

点评：1. 本文难度适中，复合句不是很多，分析句子结构可以拿“so I repaid them with a song on my Baritone ukulele.
我用自己的尤克里里为她们弹奏了一支曲子作为报偿
They made my day and I really appreciate the human race right now 她们让我这一天都充满了幸福感，此刻我觉得人性是多么温暖啊！”这两句话举例，每一句直接从左往右分析先找动词，repaid 报答是动词，所以它是谓语动词，左边的是主语I，右边的是宾语them，所以主谓宾依次是 I repaid them，你会发现，在句子完整的情况下后面如果还要添加内容的话，一般是状语，用with，for，to，in，on，under等词将它们引导出来。第二句中有两个句子，用and连接，第一小句动词是made（做，构成），左边they是主语，右边my day是宾语；第二句动词是appreciate （感激），左边主语是I，右边宾语是human race，所以主谓宾是 I appreciate human race 我感激人性，一样的，句子完整之后，后面的right now就是时间状语了。我们分析句子的方法就是这样，主要是定动词。

2. 状语讲解：状语和句子的主干无关，只起到提示作用，一般提示时间，地点，方法，目的等等，所以又叫做时间状语，地点状语等等。

在一般的句子中，状语一般是一个副词，介词加一段短语，或者是连词引导的状语从句，举例：

一：I often go to movie with my father ，状语often为一个副词。

二：My brother is sleeping on the desk，状语on the desk 是介词加一段短语。

三：When he came home, I was cooking dinner, 主句在后，前面是when引导的时间状语从句。
