ill adj. 不健康的；有病的

[拓展] ill和sick都可做形容词，表“生病的，不舒服的”，两者都可作表语。

两者作定语时，表达的意义不一样：

如：He is a sick man. 他是个多病的人。
  He is an ill man. 他是个坏人。

2. I’ve got a stomachache and my head hurts. 我胃疼，头也疼。

注意疾病的表达方式。常见的表达方式还有：

I have got a headache. =My head hurts/aches. =I have a pain in my head.

3. -- How long have you been like this? 像这样的情况多久了？

-- Since Friday. 自周五以来。

since 作介词时，与完成时连用，意思是“自……以来；自从”。例如：

He has lived here since 1992. 他1992年以来一直住在这里。

since 作连词时，有以下用法。

1) 与完成时连用，意思是“自……以后”，其后面引导含一般过去时态的从句。例如：

I have written home but once since I came here.

我到这里以后只写过一次家信。

2) 用于“ It has been + 时间段 + since + 一般过去时态的句子”句型。例如：

It has been a week since we arrived here. 我们到达此地有一个星期了。

3) 意思是 “既然，因为”。例如：

Since we have no money, we can’t buy it. 因为我们没钱，我们买不起（它）。

Since you insist, I must go. 既然你坚持，我就必须去了。

[注意] 当 since 与完成时态连用时，主句中的谓语动词需用延续性动词。所以一些终止性动词必须及时转化为延续性动词。

take sb’s temperature, 表示“量某人的体温”。
