Excellent ☆☆☆Great☆☆Good☆ 长难句分析：这是一个简单句。句子的主语是Mr Tolman，谓语是has just finished，宾语是reading Gillian’s uncle’s will，a lawyer 是同位语，补充说明主语Mr Tolman 的身份，In Tolman’s office 是地点状语，说明动作发生的地点。
1. In Tolman’s office, Mr Tolman, a lawyer, has just finished reading Gillian’s uncle’s will.
Language points
lawyer 作名词，指“通过法律专业知识为他人提供法律服务的职业人士”，可泛指各类律师。
词源联想：law n. 法律 → lawyer n. 律师 teach v. 教 → teacher n. 教师
常见职业名词后缀：
-er/-or：多表示“执行某动作的人”，如：driver 司机、actor 演员。
-ist：侧重“某领域的专业人士”，如：artist 艺术家、scientist 科学家。
-ian：指“从事某职业或精通某领域的人”，如：musician音乐家。
e.g. She wants to become a lawyer to protect people’s rights.
她想成为律师以保护人们的权利。
One of a lawyer’s duties is to help more people learn about laws.
律师的职责之一是帮助更多人了解法律。
2. It’s not going to be easy to spend a thousand dollars.
分析结构：这是一个主系表结构的简单句。It 作形式主语，谓语is not going to be 表将来时态，表语是easy，to spend a thousand dollars是动词不定式作真正的主语。
“It’s + adj. + (for sb.) to do sth.”是固定句式，意为“（对某人来说）做某事是……的”。其中It 作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的动词不定式。该句型中的形容词是描述事物特征的词，如important, necessary, difficult, easy 等。
It’s + adj. + of sb. + to do sth. 意为“某人做某事是……（表示某人具有什么样的品质）”。其中形容词是用来描述人的性格特征或者行为表现的。
e.g. It is important to study hard. 努力学习很重要。
It’s really hard for them to climb such a high mountain.
对他们来说爬那么高的山真的很难。
It’s going to be difficult to save five hundred dollars a month.
每月存五百美元会很困难。
It’s kind of you to help me. 你帮我真是太好了。
3. After spending this cash, you must tell me in writing how you spent it.
长难句分析：这是一个复合句。主句主语为you，谓语为must tell，间接宾语为me，直接宾语为how you spent it，是宾语从句，in writing 是方式状语。After spending this cash 是时间状语。
4. Finally, he decides to return to his uncle’s house.
decide to do sth. 决定做某事
e.g. They decided to cancel the meeting.
他们决定取消会议。
5. In the living room, Miss Hayden is sitting at a table, writing letters.
writing letters为现在分词短语作伴随状语。
6. I hope she will be happy forever.
forever 作副词，意为“永远；常常；不断地”，相当于for ever。
还可作名词，意为“极长一段时间”。
常见搭配：（1）forever and ever 永远
（2）go on forever 永远继续下去
e.g. I think that we will live together forever.
我想我们会永远生活在一起。
She was forever pushing her hair out of her eyes.
她不停地拨开挡住眼睛的头发。
It took forever to finish that project. 完成那个项目花了很长时间。
This can’t go on forever. 这不可能永远持续下去。
