新概念英语第2册Lesson37课文详注1.The Olympic Games will be held in our country in four years'time. 4年以后，奥林匹克运动会将在我们国家举行。
(1)作为专有名词的一部分时 games 的第一个字母要大写。
(2)这句话的语态是被动语态用于一般将来时(will be held)。
(3)in four years' time，4年之后。
in的这种用法在第9课的语法中已经讲过，它通常与将来时连用表示“……时间之后”：I'll be back in ten minutes or half an hour.我10分钟或半个小时以后回来。
名词的所有格用于表示时间在第13课的语法中已经提到过：He will arrive in three hours' time.他3小时以后到达。
2.As a great many people will be visiting the country, the government will be building new hotels, an immense stadium, and a newOlympic-standard swimming pool. 由于将有大批的人到我们国家来，所以政府准备建造一些新的饭店、一个大型体育场和一个新的奥运会标准游泳池。
(1)连词as用于表示原因时通常位于句首，这是因为它所表明的原因对于讲话对象可能是已知的，因此没有必要再予以强调。
连词 because任何时候都可以代替as来说明一种或几种原因，但是as则不一定总能代替 because：As you can't type the letter yourself, you'll have to ask Susan to do it for you.既然你自己不能用打字机打这封信，那你就请苏珊替你打吧。
