Language points
1. I was scared at first, but shouting did help.
此句相当于 I was scared at first, but shouting helped. 原句是一种表现强调的句式。英语中, 可用助动词do对谓语动词进行强调, 构成强调句。
e.g.
Please do be careful.
请一定小心。
I do agree with you.
我完全同意你的意见。
He did warn you other day, remember?
他前两天就告诫过你, 还记得吗？
2. You never know until you try something.
try的用法
1) 做名词 have a try 试一试 e.g. Why not have a try?
为什么不试一试？
2) 做动词 (1) try to do sth. 努力做某事 e.g. Well, we’ll try to finish the homework
in time.
那好, 我们争取及时完成作业。
(2) try doing sth. 表示尝试着做某事
e.g. -- I usually go there by train.  我通常乘火车去那儿。 -- Why not try going by boat for a
change? 为什么不换乘船呢?
(3) try one’s best 尽某人最大的努力 e.g. Thank you. I will try my best.  谢谢你。我会尽力而为的。
3. I suggest Water City Restaurant in Water World.
suggest作动词, 可意为“显示; 间接表
明”, 后可接宾语从句。
e.g. His behavior suggested (that) he was
a kind man.  
他的行为显示他是个好人。
suggest作“建议”讲时, 应注意以下两点：
1) suggest doing sth. 建议做某事
e.g. I suggested going home.
我建议回家。
2) suggest后接从句时, 从句常用虚拟语
气, 谓语由“should + 动词原形”构成,
should可以省略。
e.g. I suggested that we should go home.
我建议我们回家。
另外, suggestion是suggest的名词形式,
作“建议”讲时, 是可数名词。
e.g. Do you have any suggestions?
你有什么建议吗？
4. The restaurant is always busy at that time, so come a little earlier to get a table.
用于“就餐”的语境时, 形容词busy相当于“吃饭人多; 餐厅拥挤”的意思; 动词短语to get a table类似于汉语“定餐桌; 占位子”等意思。
