第四， 语法点拨
1. Last week when Mark was asking what kind of man she would marry, Jenny blewher TOP and jump down his throat like anything.
该句中的状语从句last week when Mark was asking what kind of man she wouldmarry 中含有省略了引导词whom，who或者是that引导的定语从句she would marry。
like anything是副词性短语，修饰谓语jump down ones throat，表示程度。
2. If I were Mark, I wouldnt give her a tumble.
该句用了虚拟语气，是对目前状况的一种假设。主句用过去以后时would，从句用一般过去时were。
