1. How is your school life going (教材P34)
Language Points
How is … going 的意思是“......怎么样 ”, 常用于问候对方或跟对方打招呼。在信件、明信片、电子邮件的开头我们可以利用此结构向对方表达问候。
【例句】
How is your work going 你的工作怎么样?
此类问句的答语一般为: Great. / Pretty good. / Not bad. / Just so-so. /Terrible. 等。
life n. 意思是“生活”, 其复数形式为lives。
因为以-f / -fe结尾的名词在变为复数形式时要将-f或-fe变为-v, 再加-es, 一般读作/vz/。
【例句】
I like the country life better.
我更喜欢乡村生活。
【拓展】
与life相关的常用短语:
lose one’s life 丧生
save one’s life 挽救某人的生命
in one’s life 在某人的生命中
all one’s life 某人的一生, 终生
live / lead a (n) + adj. + life 过......的生活
2. I start school at 8:00 a.m. I usually finish at 5:00 p. m. (教材P34)
start v. 开始; 出发
start to do sth.的意思是“开始做某事”, 与之意思相同的短语是start doing sth.。
【例句】
The baby started crying. 这个婴儿开始哭了。
It started to rain. 开始下雨了。
finish v. 完成; 结束
finish + 名词 / 代词表示“完成......”; finish doing sth.表示“做完某事”。
finish的反义词是begin或start。
【例句】
Have you finished your homework 你完成你的家庭作业了吗?
Have you finished writing your letter 你写完信了吗?
3. We always have a big sports meet twice a year. (教材P34)
twice a year的意思是“一年两次”。twice 是频度副词, 意为“两次”, 一年一次是once a year。
英语中次数的表示方法一般为“基数词 + times”。
【例句】
We have English classes three times a week.
我们一周上三次英语课。
要表示某一动作在某一段时间内发生的频率, 用“次数 + 一段时间”, 对其提问用how often引导的特殊疑问句。
【例句】
—How often do you do exercise 你多长时间做一次运动?
—Three times a week. 一周三次。
4. Last term I won first place! (教材P34)
win v. 赢得; 获胜,其过去式和过去分词是won
win后面接war, match, game以及表示名次、奖品、奖金等的词作宾语。
【例句】
We won the game because of his participation.
由于他的参与, 我们赢得了比赛。
5. You’re good at the long jump. (教材P34)
be good at的意思是“擅长”, 后跟名词或动词的-ing形式, be good at的同义短语为do well in。
【例句】
I am good at math.
我擅长数学。
【拓展】
be good to 对......友好
be good for 对......有好处

6. Last week, I made a bird house all by myself. (教材P34)
by oneself的意思是“独立地; 单独”, 相当于on one’s own。myself是反身代词, 意为“我自己”, 在句中可作宾语或同位语。
【例句】
She is so young that you can’t leave her by herself.
她太小了, 你不能把她单独留下。
