Choosing the right colour
Sunshine Middle School invited Ms Li, a fashion designer, to advise students on choosing
the right colour to wear. Here is the interview script. Before reading, think about the
questions below.
1 Do you think colour matching is important? Why or why not?
2 What questions about colours do you have for a fashion designer?
Kitty: Good morning, Ms Li. May I ask you some
questions about colours in fashion?
Ms Li: Sure.
Kitty: How can we choose the right colours to wear? Could you give us some
advice?
Ms Li: Well, it depends on the colour of our skin. Some people look good in
warm colours, like yellow, red and orange, but other people look nice
in cool colours, such as green, blue and purple.
Kitty: Which colours go well together?
Ms Li: Try to pick similar colours. For example, wear dark blue jeans with a
light blue blouse or T-shirt.
Kitty: OK, but can we mix warm and cool colours?
Ms Li: Yes. In fact, warm and cool colours make each other stand out, such as
yellow and green or orange and blue. But don’t wear more than three
colours at one time.
Kitty: What colours match all?
Ms Li: Black, white and grey go well
with any colour. They’re suitable
for both formal suits and casual
clothes.
Kitty: Thanks for your advice, Ms Li.

Look at the model. Here is my design for a shirt, a
jacket, a pair of jeans and a pair of sports shoes.
The shirt is white. I think white shirts have a
clean look, and white matches any other colour.
The jacket is not too long or too large, and it is
dark blue. Students look smart in dark blue.
Jeans are very popular with students, so my
design has a pair of blue jeans.
The shirt, the jacket and the jeans are all made of
cotton and are very comfortable.
There is also a pair of sports shoes. They are grey and made of
leather. Sports shoes are light and good for sport, and all the
students like them.
All of these come in different sizes. Do you like my design?

My favourite festival is the Spring Festival. It is an important
holiday in China. It is always in January or February.
Usually, people clean their homes and put up the Spring Festival
couplets beforehand. On the Chinese New Year’s Eve, families get
together and enjoy a big dinner. We prepare some dishes with
special meanings, like jiaozi and niangao. Then people like to watch
the Spring Festival Gala on TV. During the holiday, people visit
relatives and friends and send each other good wishes. Elders often
give kids red packets to wish them good luck.
The Spring Festival lasts till the Lantern Festival. It is often cold at
this time of year, but people feel warm in their hearts.

Start your day with a healthy breakfast. An egg, milk and bread are

我们常使用动词be的一般现在时谈论事实和状态。动词be的变化形式有am、is、are。如：
I am in Grade 7. 我在七年级。
He is 12 years old. 他十二岁。
We are very happy with new friends. 我们和新朋友在一起很高兴。
注意： 主语可以是代词，也可以是名词，动词be 的单复数要与主语保持一致。如：
The little dog is very cute. 这只小狗很可爱。
The classmates are all friendly. 同学们都很友善。
◆ 如果主语是代词，在非正式文体中，动词be 与前面的代词可以缩写。如：
I am = I’m
you are = you’re
she is = she’s
he is = he’s
it is = it’s
we are = we’re
they are = they’re
◆ 动词be 一般现在时的否定句式是在be 后面加not。如：
This subject is not easy. 这门课不容易。
They are not in the classroom. 他们不在教室里。
注意： 在非正式文体中，is/are 与not 可以缩写。如：is not = isn’t、are not = aren’t。
am 与not 不能缩写。
◆ 动词be 一般现在时的一般疑问句式是将be 提前至句首。如：
—Are you good at Maths? 你擅长数学吗？
—Yes, I am. 是的，我擅长。
—Is that girl your classmate? 那个女孩是你的同学吗？
—No, she isn’t. 不，她不是。
注意： 在肯定答句中，主语和动词be 不能缩写，如：“Yes, he is.”不能缩写为“Yes,
he’s.”。
Unit 2
一般现在时(II)
我们常用一般现在时谈论我们经常做的事、不受时间限制的客观事实以及人或物的一般
特征。这时我们常使用行为动词，这种动词有具体、实际的含义。请比较：
My hobby is painting. 我的爱好是绘画。（动词be）
I love painting. 我热爱绘画。（行为动词）
注意： 当我们用一般现在时进行表达的时候，不能同时使用动词be 和行为动词。如：
I am good at swimming. （✓）
I love swimming. （✓）
I am love swimming. （✗）
◆ 行为动词的一般现在时可用于以下情况：
141
Grammar check
用 法
例 句
经常性、习惯性的行为
I often go to the Art Club after school.
不受时间限制的客观事实
Fish live in water.
人或物的一般特征
She sings very well.
◆ 根据主语的人称和数的不同，行为动词的一般现在时有两种形式。
当主语是第一人称的单复数、第二人称的单复数和第三人称复数时，行为动词使用其原
形。如：
We have different subjects at school. 在学校我们有不同的科目。
They enjoy jogging in their free time. 他们有空的时候喜欢慢跑。
当主语是第三人称单数时，行为动词使用其第三人称单数形式。如：
She visits museums every weekend. 她每个周末都去参观博物馆。
He plays football every day. 他每天踢足球。
◆ 行为动词一般现在时的第三人称单数形式的构成方法如下：
规 则
举 例
读音变化
大多数动词后加s
make—makes
live—lives
清辅音后的s 读/s/，浊辅音或元音后

carry—carries
cry—cries
es 读/z/
注意：如果动词以“元音字母 + y”结
尾，不适用此规则。如：play—
plays
以-ch、-sh、-ss 或-x 结
尾的动词后加es
teach—teaches
finish—finishes
guess—guesses
fix—fixes
es 读/ɪz/
以“辅音字母 + o”结尾
的动词后加es
go—goes
es 读/z/
特殊变化

◆ 行为动词一般现在时的否定句式是在行为动词前加do not 或does not。当主语是第三
人称单数时，助动词用does。在非正式文体中，do not 和does not 可以缩写成don’t
和doesn’t。如：
Students do not go to school on Sunday. 学生周日不上学。
= Students don’t go to school on Sunday.
He does not work in this shop. 他不在这家商店工作。
= He doesn’t work in this shop.
◆ 行为动词一般现在时的疑问句式是在句首加助动词do 或does。当主语是第三人称单
数时，助动词用does。如：

—Do you like traditional Chinese painting? 你喜欢国画吗？
—Yes, I do. I like landscape painting best. 是的，我喜欢。我最喜欢山水画。
—Does John often play basketball after school? 约翰放学后经常打篮球吗？
—No, he doesn’t. 不，他不常打。
注意： 在疑问句和否定句中，助动词之后的行为动词均用原形。
◆ 要注意区分行为动词do 和助动词do 的用法。如：
I do not do housework on Saturday. 我周六不做家务。
Do you do housework on Saturday? 你周六做家务吗？
在上面每个例句中，第一个do 是助动词，第二个do 是行为动词。
Unit 3
人称代词
我们常用人称代词来代替表示人或物的名词。如：
Lucy and I are in the library. We like reading here.
我和露西在图书馆里。我们喜欢在这里读书。
Look at these classrooms. They are clean and bright.
看看这些教室。它们整洁又明亮。
The panda is cute. Everyone likes it. 这只熊猫很可爱。大家都喜欢它。
Helen is my classmate. I often play with her. 海伦是我的同学。我常和她一起玩。
注意： 人称代词不仅可以指代人，还可以指代动植物及无生命的物体。
◆ 如果人称代词在句子中作主语，用主格；如果人称代词作宾语，用宾格。主格常位于句首，
宾格一般在动词或介词之后。
◆ 人称代词的主格和宾格归纳如下：
人称代词
单 数

Unit 5
可数名词和不可数名词
英语中的名词按其表示的事物的性质可分为可数名词与不可数名词。
◆ 可数名词，顾名思义，是可以用数目来计算的人或物。指一个人或一件事物时，用单数形
式；指两个及以上的人或事物时，用复数形式。如：
I usually have a sandwich for breakfast. 我早餐通常吃一个三明治。
They exercise in different ways. 他们用不同的方式锻炼身体。
◆ 单数的可数名词或名词短语前一般有限定词，如：冠词a/an、the，指示代词this、that，
形容词性物主代词my、your、his、her、their，名词所有格John’s 等。
注意： 冠词a 用于辅音音素开头的可数名词前；an 用于元音音素开头的可数名词前，
144
Grammar check
而不是元音字母开头的名词前。如：
There is an apple tree in the garden. 花园里有一棵苹果树。
Mary dances for an hour every day. 玛丽每天跳一个小时的舞。
She has an umbrella and a useful book. 她有一把雨伞和一本有用的书。
◆ 单数可数名词变成复数形式的常见规则如下：

大多数词后加s
book—books
egg—eggs
day—days
清辅音后的s 读/s/，浊辅音或元音后的s 读
/z/
以“辅音字母 +
y”结尾的词，去
掉y，再加ies
hobby—hobbies
library—libraries
activity—activities
es 读/z/
注意： 此处是“辅音字母+ y”，而“元音字母+
y”则不适用此规则。如：boy—boys
以-s、-sh、-ch、
-x 结尾的词后
加es
glass—glasses
dish—dishes
bench—benches
box—boxes
es 读/ɪz/
注意： 以ch 结尾但不发/tʃ/ 的可数名词不适
用此规则。如：stomach—stomachs
以-o 结尾的词
后有的加s，有
的加es
piano—pianos
zoo—zoos
hero—heroes
s 读/z/，es 读/z/
以-f/-fe 结尾的
词，去掉f/fe，再
加ves
shelf—shelves
leaf—leaves
knife—knives
ves 读/vz/
特殊变化
man—men
foot—feet
child—children
fish—fish
由man 或woman 与另一可数名词组成的复
合名词变为复数时，两部分都发生变化。
如： women drivers 女司机
men doctors 男医生
◆ 不可数名词指不可以计数的名词。不可数名词无单、复数之分，前面有无限定词均可。如：
The soup smells great. 汤闻起来很香。
Do you have salt? 你有盐吗？
◆ 不可数名词前不能用a/an 或表示具体数量的数词，但可以用the 或表示数量多少的
some、much、a little、little、a lot of 等词或短语修饰。如：
a lot of water 许多水 a little milk 一点牛奶
◆ 不可数名词前还可以用表示量的“可数名词 + of”短语来表示数量。如：
a piece of paper 一张纸 three cups of coffee 三杯咖啡
five kilos of beef 五千克牛肉
◆ 如果主语是不可数名词，谓语动词常用单数。如：
Coffee is a kind of drink. 咖啡是一种饮品。
◆ 英语中常见的不可数名词有time（时间）、money（钱）、work（工作，劳动）、homework（家
庭作业）、news（消息）、luck（运气）等。

Unit 6
疑问句
一般疑问句
用yes 或no 作答的疑问句叫一般疑问句。一般疑问句以be 动词、情态动词或助动词开
头，回答通常比较简短。如：

—Can I try them on? 我可以试穿吗？
—Yes, of course. 是的，当然可以。

一般疑问句主要有如下特点：
◆ 用yes 或no 作答（有时根据语气的不同，yes 也可以由sure、certainly、of course 等词
代替，no 可由sorry 代替）。
◆ 答语中的主语须与问句的主语一致（但必须用主格代词）。如果问句中主语是this/that，
回答时用it 代替；如果问句中主语是these/those，回答时用they 代替。
◆ 沿用问句中的引导词（be 动词、情态动词或助动词）。
特殊疑问句
我们使用特殊疑问句询问一些具体信息。如：
What is your favourite colour? 你最喜欢什么颜色？
Whose shoes are these? 这些是谁的鞋子？
◆ 特殊疑问句以疑问词开头，常用的疑问词有what、who、whose、when、where、which、
why、how 等。因大多数疑问词以wh- 开头，故特殊疑问句又被称为“wh- 问句”。
◆ 常见的疑问词的用法如下：

—How is the girl these days? 这个女孩最近怎么样？
—She is fine. 她挺好的。（✓） —Yes. 好的。（✗）
2. 针对疑问词what time 的回答多为具体时间，而针对when 的回答可以是大
概时间，也可以是具体时间。如：

选择疑问句可由一般疑问句组成。如：
—Do you like silk scarves or cotton scarves? 你喜欢丝质的围巾还是棉质的围巾？
—Silk. 丝质的。
选择疑问句也可由特殊疑问句组成。如：
—Which dress do you like, this one or that one? 你喜欢哪条裙子，这条还是那条？

Unit 7
用some 和any 表示数量
我们可以用some 和any 这样表示不定数或不定量的词来修饰名词。
◆ some 和any 表示“一些”，可修饰可数名词，也可修饰不可数名词。如：
There are some gifts on the desk. 桌上有一些礼物。
I want to buy some food. 我想买一些食物。
147
Grammar check
There are not any oranges in the shop. 商店里没有柑橘了。
Do you have any free time? 你有空吗？
◆ some 常用于肯定句中，any 常用于否定句或疑问句中。如：
He has some new notebooks. 他有一些新笔记本。
He does not have any new notebooks. 他没有新笔记本。
Does he have any new notebooks? 他有新笔记本吗？
注意： 我们提出建议或请求时常用some，表示希望得到对方的肯定答复。如：
Would you like some drink? 你想喝点饮料吗？
—Can you tell me some Chinese idiom stories? 你能给我讲一些中国成语故事吗？
—Sure. How about the story of Guan Zhong and Bao Shuya? 当然。管鲍之交
的故事怎么样？
there be 结构
我们常常会用there be 结构来表达“某地有某物或某人”。如：
There is a shopping mall near the bank. 银行附近有一个商场。
There are a lot of friends at my birthday party. 我生日会上来了很多朋友。
There is not any water in her glass. 她的杯子里没有水了。
Are there any girl students in the team? 队里有女学生吗？
◆ there be 结构中，动词be 的单复数形式与其后的名词一致。其后的名词如果是可数名
词单数或不可数名词，动词be 用单数形式；其后的名词如果是可数名词复数，动词be 用
复数形式。
注意： 当there be 后面有两个或两个以上的名词时，动词be 的单复数形式要与离它最
近的名词一致，即“邻近原则”。如：
There is a girl and two boys in the classroom. 教室里有一个女生和两个男生。
There are two boys and a girl in the classroom. 教室里有两个男生和一个女生。
◆ there be 结构的否定句式是在动词be 后加not；一般疑问句式是把动词be 提前至句首，
应答时可以说“Yes, there is/are.”或“No, there is/are not.”。
◆ 要注意区分there be和have的用法。there be结构表示“存在”，而have表示“拥有”。如：
There is a picture on the wall. 墙上有幅画。
I have some pictures. 我有一些画。
Unit 8
现在进行时
我们用现在进行时表示正在进行的动作或状态。如：
I am chatting with the elders. 我正和长辈们聊天。
My grandfather is walking around the park. 我爷爷正在公园散步。
◆ 现在进行时可以表示说话时正在进行或发生的动作，也可表示当前一段时间内的活动或
现阶段正在进行的动作。如：

Listen! Our teacher is singing a song. 听！我们的老师正在唱歌。
—Where is your father? 你爸爸在哪儿？
—Oh, he is cleaning his car. 噢，他正在洗车。
注意： 有些动词一般不用于现在进行时，如know、understand、love、like、want、
hear、see 等。
◆ 现在进行时的基本结构是“主语 + be + 动词的现在分词”。现在分词的构成规则如下：
规 则
