The birthday person must make a wish and blow out the candles. If he or she blows out all the candles in one go, the wish will come true. In the UK, people sometimes put a candy in a birthday cake. The child with the candy is lucky. In Brazil, people like to eat candies on their birthdays. In Korea, people have cakes and a bowl of seaweed soup for a birthday. They think seaweed soup is good for health. In China, it is getting popular to have cake on one’s birthday. But many people still eat very long noodles for their birthdays. They never cut up the noodles because the long noodles are a symbol of long life. In some places, Chinese people also eat eggs on their birthdays. They are a symbol of life and good luck.

What Do No. 5 High School Students Do in Their Free Time? Last month we asked our students about their free time activities. Our questions were about exercise, use of the Internet and watching TV. Here are the results. We found that only fifteen percent of our students exercise every day. Forty-five percent exercise four to six times a week. Twenty percent exercise only one to three times a week. And twenty percent do not exercise at all! We all know that many students often go online, but we were surprised that ninety percent of them use the Internet every day. The other ten percent use it at least three or four times a week. Most students use it for fun and not for homework. The answers to our questions about watching television were also interesting. Only two percent of the students watch TV one to three times a week. Thirteen percent watch TV four to six times a week. And eighty-five percent watch TV every day! Although many students like to watch sports, game shows are the most popular. It is good to relax by using the Internet or watching game shows, but we think the best way to relax is through exercise. It is healthy for the mind and the body. Exercise such as playing sports is fun, and you can spend time with your friends and family as you play together. And remember, “old habits die hard”. So start exercising before it’s too late!

Did Carol take any photos? 卡罗尔拍照片了吗？ take与photo，picture等词搭配时，表示“拍摄；摄影”。表示“拍摄某物或人”， 则要在短语后面接介词“of”引入所拍摄的对象。例如： Where’s your camera? Let me take a picture of that house. It’s so beautiful. 你的相 机在哪儿？让我给那栋房子照张像，它太漂亮了。 That girl likes to take photos of herself with her cell phone. 那个女孩喜欢用手机自拍。 2. It was so much fun. 那真是蛮好玩的（文中指钓鱼、喂鸡挺有意思的）。 fun表示“有趣的事情”，为不可数名词。例如： Look, Peter. The children are having so much fun. 彼得，你瞧，孩子们玩得多么开心。 3. Lucky you. 你真幸运。 这是一句非正式口语，相当于You’re so lucky. Lucky之后的人称还可改为me，him等。例如： A: There was no power at school last night. It was so dark. 昨天晚上学校停电了， 漆黑一片。 B: Lucky me. I was not there. 我多幸运呀，不在那里。 4. All in all, it was an exciting day. 总之，这是令人兴奋的一天。 All in all相当于汉语中的“总的说来；总之；整体上说”，用来对所阐述的内容进行 概括性总结及归纳。例如： All in all, I think you did a good job. 总的说来，我认为你干得很好。 5. I didn’t like the trip at all. 我一点都不喜欢这次行程。 not at all/not ... at all相当于“根本不；完全不”。例如： I don’t like mutton at all. 我一点都不喜欢羊肉。 She’s not at all good at badminton. 她完全不擅长打羽毛球。 Unit 4 What did you do last weekend? 1. How interesting! 多么有趣啊！ 这是个感叹句。感叹句结构是“How +形容词或副词+感叹号（！）”，表示“多 么⋯⋯！”。例如： 68Notes on the Text Look at that bird. How beautiful! 瞧那只鸟，多么漂亮呀！ Some five hours ago we left Beijing on this train, but now we’re arriving in Shang- hai! How fast! 差不多5个小时前我们才乘火车离开北京，可现在我们就要到上海了！多 快啊！ 2. They have a butterfly house with over 200 kinds of butterflies! 它们（指博 物馆）有一个有200多种蝴蝶的蝴蝶馆！ butterfly house表示“蝴蝶馆”。 英语中house的含义与所处的语境密切相关。例如：a big house表示“一座大房子”。 但是，my house不仅表示“我的房子”，还可表示“我的家”。例如： I hope you all can come over to my house this Sunday for coffee. 我希望这个礼拜天 你们全都能够来我家喝咖啡。 3. Father Mouse shouted at the cat, “Woof, woof!” 老鼠爸爸冲着猫大声吼叫： “汪汪，汪汪！” We shouted to our parents to let them know about the danger. 我们对父母大声 叫喊，想让他们知道我们的危险。 1） woof是一个象声词，表示狗的叫声。 2） shout at sb与shout to sb区别。shout at多指因生气或愤怒“冲某人大声吼叫， 嚷嚷”，shout to sb 一般是指“对某人大声叫喊”，目的是让别人听见。例如： Could you stop shouting at the children?别对孩子们嚷嚷了，好吗？ There was so much noise that I had to shout to her. 太吵了，我不得不冲她大声叫喊。 4. Well, son, that’s why it’s important to learn a second language. 所以嘛，儿 子，这就是为什么学习外语重要啦。 ... it was important not to go near a snake. ⋯⋯重要的是不要靠近蛇。 It is +形容词 + to do ... 是英语中一个重要的形容词句型，十分常见。能够这样用的 形容词除important外，我们学过的还有easy, difficult等，表示“做某事是重要、容易、 困难的”等等。例如： It’s easy to run, but it’s not so easy to be the first. 跑是很容易的，但要当第一名却不 那么容易。 It’s difficult for me to study math. 对我来说，学习数学好难啊。 5. As a special gift, our parents took us to India for a holiday. 作为一份特殊的 礼物，我爸妈带着我们去印度度假。 1） 此处介词as表示“作为⋯⋯；当作⋯⋯”，其后可以接职业、用途、特点等。用 在句首时，这种短语的后面往往有逗号与语句的主体隔开。例如： As a student, I must work hard. 作为一名学生，我必须努力学习。 2） 本句中动词take表示“带领”，take … to …则表示“带领某人去某处”。例如： 69Notes on the Text On Sundays, the father would take his son to the park. 一到星期天，爸爸便会带他 的儿子去公园。 6. There we put up tents and made a fire to keep us warm and cook food on. 在那里我们架起帐篷，生火取暖并做饭。 1） 请注意本句中的这些相对固定的动宾短语表达法：put up tents 搭建帐篷；make a fire 生火；点起篝火；keep us warm 使得我们暖和；cook food on the fire 在火上做饭 2） 本句的主体部分是we put up tents and made a fire，后续的to keep us warm and cook food on 表达的是made a fire的目的。 7. On the first night, ... 在头一天夜里，⋯⋯ 一般来讲，英语中表示一天中的时间分别采用at night（在夜里）、in the morning （在上午）、in the evening（在下午）等，但表示“在某一天上午、下午或晚上等”的特 定时间，往往使用介词on。例如： On the early morning of November 20th, we got a special postcard. 在11月20号一 大清早，我们收到了一张特殊的明信片。 8. But I was so tired that I went to sleep early. 但是我太累了，所以早早就睡着了。 I was so scared that I couldn’t move. 我是那么害怕，一动都不敢动。 英语中“so +形容词+ that句子”，表示“太⋯⋯以至于⋯⋯”。例如： The game is so interesting that I don’t want to stop playing it. 这个游戏是如此有意 思，以至于我都不想停下来。 The soup was so delicious that he drank it up. 汤是那么好喝，于是他喝了个精光。 9. ... we saw a big snake sleeping near the fire. 我们看见一条大蛇正在篝火附近 睡觉。 My dad told me later that snakes ... can feel things moving. 后来我爸告诉我蛇 ⋯⋯能够感到东西的震动。 英语中表示感官的动词，例如see, hear, feel等动词后可以接动词-ing短语，表示 “看见、听到、觉得某人或物在做⋯⋯（某事）”。例如： I can hear the children singing in the classroom. 我能听见孩子们在教室里唱歌。 I looked out the window and saw some boys playing soccer in the playground. 我 往窗外望去，看见一些男孩子在操场踢球。 Unit 5 Where did you go on vacation? 1. Central Park 中央公园（美国纽约） 中央公园位于美国纽约中心的曼哈顿地区，是纽约最大的都市公园，四季皆有不同 的美丽景致，独享纽约“后花园”之美称。它不仅是纽约市民心目中的休闲胜地，也是 世界各地游客向往的著名公园。 70Notes on the Text 2. Did you buy anything special? 你买了什么特别的东西吗？ 在英语中，anything, something, nothing和everything是用于指代事物的复合不定代 词，与之相对应的复合不定代词anyone, someone, no one和everyone (anybody, somebody, nobody和everybody)用于指人。与形容词连用时，形容词必须置于复合不定代词之后， 语法上称作“后置”。例如： I can see someone new in your group. 我看出你们小组中有新人。 There’s nothing interesting in the news today. 今天的新闻里没有什么有趣的内容。 3. We took quite a few photos there. 我们在那里拍了好多照片。 此句中quite a few是一个整体结构，表示“相当多”，修饰可数名词，请不要与a few （少数几个）混淆。试体会、比较下面例句中a few和quite a few的区别： There are only a few books on the table, but I still have quite a few in the bookcase. 虽 然桌子上只有几本书，但我的书柜里还是有很多书的。 4. Penang Hill（槟城山）和Weld Quay（海墘街） 槟城山俗名“升旗山”，位于马来西亚槟城岛（当地称“槟榔屿”），距离槟城岛中心 城区乔治市（Georgetown）约6公里，它的主峰高830米，是马来西亚一处重要的旅游 景区。登山游客可以选择搭乘缆车，或沿着缆车轨道旁的小径及梯级徒步而上，一路欣 赏隐藏在升旗山热带雨林内的奇花异草，并可俯览乔治市的壮丽景色。 海墘街实为槟城渡轮码头及其附近的一片地区，是槟城过去和现在的缩影。这里既 有历史遗迹、旧时房屋，也不乏现代新式建筑，是游客观赏槟城景致、体验槟城生活、 品尝马来特色美食的必到之处。 5. What a difference a day makes! 一天的差异是多么大呀！ 这是一个感叹句。英语语法规定，强调名词时，句首用what。又如： What a lovely day! 多么好的一天啊！ What nice people they are! 他们是多么好的人呀！ 6. And because of the bad weather, we couldn’t see anything below. 并且因为 糟糕的天气，底下的东西我们什么都看不到。 because of和because均为“因为”的意思，两者区别在于前者是介词短语，后面可 接名词、代词或名词性短语，而后者是连词，后面接句子。试比较： I can’t come to your party, Denny, because I’m going away this weekend. 丹尼，我参 加不了你的聚会啦，因为这个周末我外出不在。（because之后为句子） We can’t play basketball outside today because of the rain. 因为这场雨，我们今天无 法在室外打篮球了。（because of之后为名词） They are here all because of you! 他们来这儿全都是因为你呀！（because of 之后为代 词） 71Notes on the Text Unit 6 How often do you exercise? 1. How come?为什么呢？（怎么会呢？） 这是英语口语中的一个习语，相当于汉语“为什么”、“怎么会”等意思，既可以独 立使用，也可在其后接句子，用来询问事情的缘由或状况。例如： How come the sky is so blue today? 今天天怎么会这么蓝？ A: I didn’t even eat lunch today. 我今天甚至没有吃中饭。 B: Really? How come? 是吗？怎么会呢？ 2. swing dance 摇摆舞 摇摆舞是爵士舞的一种，初现于20世纪早期的美国，其曲调动听活泼、节奏鲜明。听 到这种音乐，人们不禁会随着它的节奏和韵律摆动身体，故而得名。 3. The answers to our questions about watching television were also interesting. 对我们提出的有关看电视的问题的回答也颇有意思。 1） 此句的基本意思是The answers were also interesting,主语the answers为复数，故 使用were。 2） 请注意本句中answer和question两个名词后的介词搭配。表示“⋯⋯的答案” 时，answer后要用介词to，这是一种固定的搭配。又如： There’s no easy answer to this problem. 这个问题没有简单的答案。 Her answer to your question is a big “NO”！她对你所提问题的回答就是一个大大的 “不”字！ 名词question后则往往搭配介词about, 表示“有关⋯⋯的（问题）”。例如： He asked us some questions about our daily habits. 他问了一些有关我们日常习惯的 问题。 Her questions about you were not so friendly. 她有关你的那些问题并不那么友善。 4. Although many students like to watch sports, game shows are the most popular. 虽然许多学生喜欢观看体育节目，但游戏类节目却是最受欢迎的。 although是英语中的一个连词，意为“虽然；尽管”。在英语表达习惯中，当表示 “虽然⋯⋯，但是⋯⋯”这样的意思时，although是不和but在同一个句子中使用的。也 就是说，在同一个句子中，有although就没有but，反之亦然。例如： Although the car is old, it still runs well. (= The car is old, but it still runs well. )尽管 这辆小车旧了，但是依然跑得不错。 I don’t want to go to bed, although it’s past midnight. (= It’s past midnight, but I don’t want to go to bed. ) 虽然现在已过半夜12点了，但我却不想睡觉。 5. Old habits die hard. 旧习难改。 这是英语中的一句谚语，表示习惯一旦养成，并非朝夕即可改变，多用来描述人们一 时难以改变的固有观念及做法。又如： 72Notes on the Text It’s the age of new technology, but my grandpa still goes everywhere with his old radio. Old habits die hard, you see. 现在都已是新技术时代了，可我爷爷仍然到哪儿都带 着他的收音机。你瞧，老习惯可真难改呀。 6. So start exercising before it’s too late! 所以赶快锻炼起来，不要等到来不及了！ it’s too late的字面意思是“为时太晚；来不及了”，是英语的一个常用表达。例如： Now you know you’re wrong, but it’s too late. 现在你知道你错了，但是已经太晚了。 此处it’s too late与before共同组成从句，表示“不要等到为时已晚；不要等到来不 及的时候；趁着还来得及”，这也是一种常见的用法。例如： You should work harder before it’s too late to catch up. 你应当更加用功，别等到为时 过晚而赶不上了。（你现在用功还赶得上。） Unit 7 I’m more outgoing than my sister. 1. That’s Tara, isn’t it? 那是塔拉，对吗？ 此句是在That’s Tara.这一陈述之后添加了一个附着的简略疑问结构，用以进行确认。 在语法上，这种句式被称作“附加疑问句”。通常情况下，若陈述部分为肯定，便用否定 形式进行提问；若陈述部分为否定，便用肯定形式进行提问。又如： There’s someone in the room, isn’t there? 房间里有人，是吧？ He didn’t say anything at the meeting, did he? 他在会上什么也没说，对吗？ We can’t say it this way, can we? 我们不能这样说，对不对？ 2. Did you like the singing competition yesterday, Anna? 安娜，你喜欢昨天的 歌咏比赛吗？ 英语和汉语表达习惯有很多不同，甚至会相互产生干扰。此处便是一个值得注意 的地方。询问或谈论是否喜欢过去的事情，英语要用过去时，这是因为所谈论的核心 着眼点在过去，而非现在。因此，上句不能说成：Do you like the singing competition yesterday?又如： I saw a movie last weekend. It was so exciting. 上周末我看了一部电影。它太刺激了。 （不能说It is so exciting. ) 3. A good friend is a good listener. 好的朋友善于倾听。 listener的本意为“听者；听众”，但这只是它的字面意思。由于此处语境所谈的内 容为“什么是好朋友”，所以a good listener的深层含义是：作为一个好朋友应当乐于听 朋友倾诉。在学习英语的过程中，应多结合语境思考词语表达的意义。 4. That’s why I like reading books and I study harder in class. 这便是我喜欢看 书而且在班上学习更加努力的原因。 That’s why ... 可视为一个固定的句式，表示“这便是为什么⋯⋯”、“这就是⋯⋯的 原因”，why的后面一般接句子。又如： 73Notes on the Text That’s why he was late this morning. 这就是他今天早上迟到的原因。 5. ... you don’t need a lot of them as long as they’re good.（ 朋友）不在多而贵 在好。 此句话的字面意思是“只要朋友好，你并不需要许多”，实则表达了汉语“（朋友）不 在多而贵在好”这样的意思。这是本课语句表达深层含义的又一个例子。此句中long为副 词，与as ... as构成一个固定搭配as long as, 用来连接句子，表示“只要⋯⋯”。又如： We can talk about this as long as you want to. 只要你想（谈），我们就可以谈谈这事。 It’s fine as long as you’re happy. 只要你高兴就好。 6. I don’t really care if my friends are the same as me or different. 我并不十分 在乎我的朋友跟我一样或与我不同。 此句中if不是“如果”的意思，而是“是否”的意思。另外，if之后所引导的句子是 主句I don’t really care的谓语动词care的宾语，故称作“宾语从句”。又如： I don’t care if he likes it or not—I’m coming! 我不管他喜欢还是不喜欢——我会来 的！ Can you tell me if I’m right, Mr. Green? 格林先生，您能告诉我我是否正确吗？ 7. A true friend reaches for your hand and touches your heart. 一个真正的朋 友是在需要时给你帮助，使你感动。 此句中的hand和heart超出了字面意思“手”和“心”，hand已引申为“帮助；援 助”，heart则为“情感；感受”之意。例如： Can you give me a hand? 你能帮我一把吗？ The movie touched the hearts of all the people at the cinema.这部电影令所有在场的 观众动容。 此处可将reach for your hand（伸手帮你一把）和touch your heart（ 打动你的心；令 你感动）作为整体来记忆并运用。 8. I know she cares about me because she’s always there to listen.我知道她关 心我，因为她随时都能够听我倾诉。 be there表示“在别人需要帮助时，时刻准备伸手相助”，也可译为“随叫随到；不 离⋯⋯左右”。此结构之后还可以接for somebody。例如： My parents were always there for me when I was growing up. 在我成长的过程中，我 的父母总是随时给予我帮助。 She didn’t worry too much because she knew he would always be there for her. 她并 不是太担心，因为她知道他总是会随时施以援手的。 9. My best friend helps to bring out the best in me. 我最好的朋友（能够）帮 我激发出自己的所能。 bring out是一个习语，意思是“使显现；使表现出”。bring out the best/worst in 74Notes on the Text someone意为“把某人最好（或最坏）的一面表现或显露出来”。又如： In a basketball or soccer game, it’s important for the players to play together and bring out the best in each other. 在篮球或足球比赛中，队员们密切协作，使大伙儿都发 挥到极致是很重要的。 Unit 8 What’s the best movie theater? 1. I’m new in town. 我新来此处。（我初来乍到。） in town是一个短语，表示“在说话人所在或所指的城镇”的意思。作这一用法时， town不与冠词连用。又如： What’s the best clothes store in town? 这城里最好的服装店是哪家？ 2. Who’s Got Talent? 谁是达人？ 此句中who’s为who has之缩写。have got表示“具有；具备”之意，相当于have。 此句字面上的意思是“谁有才华？”例如： Have you got time? I’ve got something important to tell you. 你现在有空吗？我有重 要的事要告诉你。 We’ve got a lot of work to do, you see, to make our town more beautiful. 你们瞧，我 们要把我们的城市变得更加美丽的话，是有很多工作要做的。 3. That’s up to you to decide. 那由你自己来决定。 在英语中，be up to somebody是一个习惯用语，用来表示“由某人做出抉择”，句 子的主语通常为it，有时也用this或that。例如： You can join the club once or twice a week—it’s up to you. 你可以一周参加一次或两 次俱乐部的活动——这由你定。 How much should he pay? That’s up to him to decide! 他应该付多少钱？那完全由他 来决定。 4. When people watch the show, they usually play a role in deciding the winner. 人们看这样的节目时，通常承担着评判优胜者的角色。 play a role是一种固定表达，意为“扮演某一角色；起到某种作用”。若要进一步引 出具体的内容，后面应用介词in,表示“在某事或某个方面起到作用或承担某种角色”。 例如： John is playing the leading role in this year’s play. 今年的演出中约翰是主角。 Schools play the most important role in education. 学校在教育中起着最为重要的作用。 5. However, if you don’t take these shows too seriously, they are fun to watch. 但是如果你不把这些节目太当回事，它们还是有看头的。 take在此处有consider（认为；觉得）的意思。take someone/something seriously 就相当于汉语“认真对待某人或某事；把某人或某事当真”的意思。又如： 75Notes on the Text He was joking, but your sister took him seriously. 他是在开玩笑，但你姐姐却（把 他）当真了。 Sometimes teachers take students’ homework too seriously. 有时老师们把学生作业 看得太重。 6. There is something for everyone at Greenwood Park. 在绿木公园每个人都 可以找到适合自己的东西。 1） Greenwood Park 为公园名，既可意译为“绿木公园”，也可音译为“格林伍德公 园”。在此我们采用意译。 2） 在上面的句子中，不定代词something指的是人们在公园中可以根据自己的需求 或爱好找到各自喜欢的东西。该句还可译为：在绿木公园，每个人都会找到各自的所爱。 76Tapescripts Tapescripts Unit 1 What does he look like? hair.

Is there a bank near here? 指某人或某物，但不具体说明何人或何物。 I found a small boy crying in the corner. We work five days a week. 表示“一”这个数量，但数的概念没有one He has a big nose and two small eyes. 强烈。 用于某些固定词组中。 a few, a little, a lot of, a moment ago 2. 定冠词 (Definite Article) 不论是单数名词还是复数名词，也不论是可数名词还是不可数名词，其前均可用定冠 词 the 。定冠词的主要用法见下表： 用 法 例词或例句 Show me the photo of your family. 特指某（些）人或某（些）事物。 The book on the desk is mine. — How much are the red socks? 指双方都知道的人或事物。 — They’re eight dollars. 指上文提过的人或事物。 First, cut up a tomato. Put the tomato on the bread. 用在世界上独一无二的事物前。 The sun is bigger than the moon. 89Grammar 用 法 例词或例句 In the first photo, I’m playing basketball at school. 用在序数词和形容词最高级前。 What’s the best radio station? 用在由普通名词构成的专有名词前。 the Great Wall, the Children’s Palace 用在姓氏的复数形式前。 the Browns（布朗一家人） 用在乐器名称前。 Can you play the guitar? in the morning/afternoon/evening, on the left/ 用在一些习惯用语中。 right, the day before yesterday, all the same 3. 不用冠词的情况 (Zero Article) 英语中在不少场合下名词前面是不需要使用冠词的，有的语法书上把这种现象称做 “零冠词”。不用冠词的情况见下表： 用 法 例词或例句 China, Tian’anmen Square, milk, Miller’s Clothes 在专有名词和不可数名词前。 Store, Class 9 It’s her ruler. 名词前已有作定语的 this，that，my， How much are these trousers? your，some，any，each，every 等代 This book is really interesting. 词。 Some boys are playing in the snow. I think every home will have a robot. She thinks talk shows are wonderful. 复数名词表示一类人或事物时。 I like elephants because they are cute. Can you come to my party on Saturday? 在星期、月份、节日前。 A special day in the United States is Thanksgiving. My science teacher is Mr. Chen. 在称呼语、头衔和职务等名称前。 — Don’t run in the hallways. — Sorry, Ms. Clark. 在一日三餐前。 For lunch, she likes hamburgers, salad and oranges. Can you play soccer? 在球类运动的名称前。 Do you play tennis? at home/school, by train, go to school/bed, on time, 用在某些固定词组中。 at night/noon, after class/school, be late for school 90Grammar II. 不定代词 (Indefinite Pronouns) 不指明代替任何特定名词或形容词的代词叫做不定代词。常见不定代词如下所示： some 一些 nothing 无物 other(s) 另一个（些） somebody 某人 all 全体；全部 another 另外一个；又一个 someone 某人 both 两个（都） much 很多 something 某事；某物 none 没人或物（指两个以上） many 很多 any 一些；任何 neither 没人或物（指两个当中） few 很少 anybody 任何人 either 任何一个（指两个当中） a few 一些；几个 anyone 任何人 each 每个 little 很少 anything 任何事物 every 每个 a little 一些 no 无 everybody 每人；大家；人人 one 一个（人或物） nobody 无人 everyone 每人 no one 无人 everything 每一件事物；一切 不定代词的用法中有几点需要注意： 1. some 和any 既可修饰可数名词复数，也可修饰不可数名词。some 多用于肯定句， any 则多用于否定句、疑问句和条件从句。例如： A: Are there any apples in the fridge? B: Yes, there are some./No, there aren’t any. A: Is there any water in the bottle? B: Yes, there is some water./No, there isn’t any water. 但是，在Would you like some tea?这类问句中则用some，而不用any，这是因为问 话者希望得到对方肯定的答复。 2. many，much，a lot of 均表示“很多”。但many 只修饰可数名词复数，much 只 修饰不可数名词，而a lot of 既可接可数名词复数，又可与不可数名词连用。 3. few 与a few 是一对反义词，修饰可数名词复数；little 与a little 也是一对反义词， 修饰不可数名词。few 和little 的意思是“很少；几乎没有”， 侧重“否定”的含义； a few 和a little 的意思是“有一些”，侧重“肯定”的含义。例如： Don’t worry. There is a little time to go. We took quite a few photos there. Few people know what happened. There is now little hope of success. 91Grammar 4. 由some，any，no，every 构成的复合不定代词作主语时，都作单数看待，其谓 语动词用单数第三人称形式。例如： Something is wrong with my watch. Well, everyone wants to win. Nobody knows what the future will be like. There is something for everyone at Greenwood Park. 5. 除no one 以外，其他复合不定代词都写成一个词。 6. 不定代词若有定语修饰，该定语要置于其后。例如： Did anyone see something good at the cinema? For lunch, we had something very special — Malaysian yellow noodles. Do you have anything to say? III. 动词 (Verbs)（III） 一般过去时（Simple Past Tense） 1. 一般过去时表示过去某个时间或某一段时间内发生的动作或存在的状态，常和表示 过去的时间状语连用，如yesterday，last night，in 1990，two days ago 等。例如： He got up at 6:30 yesterday. I visited my grandparents last week. 一般过去时也表示过去经常或反复发生的动作，常和often，always 等表示频度的时 间状语连用。例如： He always went to work by bus last year. 2. 以动词be和work为例，一般过去时的肯定式、否定式、疑问式和简略答语构成 如下： 动词 肯定式 否定式 I/He/She was at home yesterday. I/He/She was not (wasn’t) at home yesterday. be We/You/They were at home We/You/They were not (weren’t) at home yesterday. yesterday. I/You/He/She/We/They worked I/You/He/She/We/They did not (didn’t) work in a hospital last year. work in a hospital last year. 92Grammar 动词 疑问式和简略答语 Was I late yesterday? Were you late yesterday? Was he/she late Yes, you were. Yes, I was. yesterday? No, you were not No, I was not (wasn’t). Yes, he/she was. (weren’t). No, he/she was not (wasn’t). be Were we early yesterday? Were you early yesterday? Were they early yesterday? Yes, we/you were. Yes, we were. Yes, they were. No, we/you were not No, we were not No, they were not (weren’t). (weren’t). (weren’t).

No, they did not (didn’t). (didn’t). 3. 英语中动词过去式的构成分为规则与不规则两类。规则动词过去式的构成和发音如 下： 类别 构成方法 例词与读音 读音规则 look—looked // 一般情况 加-ed play—played // start—started // live—lived // 以e结尾的动词 加-d hope—hoped // 清辅音后面读 use—used // 作//； 浊辅音和元音后面 以重读闭音节 读//； 结尾的动词， 双写这个辅音 stop—stopped // //和//后面读 末尾只有一个 字母，再加- plan—planned // //。 辅音字母 study—studied // 以辅音字母加y 变y为i，再 carry—carried // 结尾的动词 加-ed worry—worried // 很多动词的过去式是不规则的，可参见本书后面第114页的不规则动词表。 93Grammar IV. 频度副词 (Adverbs of Frequency) 频度副词是用以回答how often (经常与否)这样问题的副词。常用的频度副词有： always，almost always，usually，often，sometimes，hardly ever (seldom)，never 等，它 们在频度上的差异可以这样表示： always (100%) > almost always > usually > often > sometimes > hardly ever (seldom) > never (0%) 频度副词通常放在动词前面，若句子里有情态动词、助动词或系动词 be，则放在这 类动词（第一个）的后面。例如： It’s always interesting to watch other people show their talents. Why do people usually make resolutions? When we watch movies about the future, we sometimes see robots. They hardly ever watch TV. Fewer people will do such jobs in the future because they are boring, but robots will never get bored. V. 形容词和副词的比较级和最高级（Comparative and Superlative Forms of Adjectives and Adverbs） 大多数形容词和副词有三个等级：1. 原级，即原形； 2. 比较级，表示“较⋯⋯”或 “更⋯⋯一些”； 3. 最高级，表示“最⋯⋯”。 1. 形容词和副词的比较级和最高级的构成 1) 规则变化 构成方法 原 级 比较级 最高级 high higher highest tall taller tallest 一般在词尾加-er 或-est short shorter shortest 部 slow slower slowest 单 分 以字母e结尾的词，在词尾 fine finer finest 音 双 节 加-r或 -st late later latest 音 词 重读闭音节词词尾只有一个 big bigger biggest 节 和 词 辅音字母时，先双写该辅音 thin thinner thinnest 字母，再加-er 或-est fat fatter fattest 以“辅音字母+y”结尾的 easy easier easiest 双音节词，先把“y”改为 funny funnier funniest “i”，再加-er 或-est early earlier earliest 94Grammar 构成方法 原 级 比较级 最高级 部 多 分 beautiful more beautiful most beautiful 音 双 interesting more interesting most interesting 节 在词前加more 或most 音 comfortable more comfortable most comfortable 词 节 和 comfortably more comfortably most comfortably 词 2) 不规则变化 原 级 比较级 最高级 good/well better best bad/badly worse worst many/much more most little less least farther farthest far further furthest 2. 形容词和副词的比较级和最高级的用法 等级 用 法 例 句 表示两者（人或事物）的比较。在“比 比 I’m more outgoing than my sister. 较级 + than”的句型中，当than前后所 较 You know more about yourself than I (do). 使用的动词相同时，通常用助动词代替 级 He works much harder than me. 后面的动词。该动词或助动词可以省略。 表示三者或三者以上（人或事物）的比 Screen City is the best theater in town. 最 较，其中有一个在某一方面超过其他几 Who sings (the) most beautifully of the 高 个，后面可用of (in) 短语等来说明比较的 three? 级 范围。形容词最高级的前面一般要加定冠 My cousin Wenjing is the funniest person 词the，副词最高级前的the可以省去。 I know. 注：在形容词和副词的比较级前，可以用much，a little等修饰，如much better，a little taller。 3. 表示两者在某一方面相同时，用“as + 形容词或副词原形 + as”的句型。例如： I think science is as important as math. Tom runs as fast as Jack. 表示一方在某一方面不及另一方时，用“not as/so + 形容词或副词原形 + as”的句 型。例如： 95Grammar It is not as/so warm today as yesterday. He did not come as/so early as Wang Lin. VI. 句子的成分（Parts of a Sentence） 组成句子的各个部分叫做句子的成分，即：主语、谓语、表语、宾语、宾语补足语、 定语和状语。主语和谓语是句子的主体部分。 句子成分 意 义 例 句 表示句子所说的是“什么人”或“什么事 主语 Lucy is an American girl. 物”，一般由名词、代词或相当于名词的 The Subject She often goes to the movies. 词或短语等充当。 说明主语“做什么”、“是什么”或者“怎 We are both quiet. 谓语 么样”。谓语（谓语部分主要的词）用动 He has a toothache.
