What time do you start your class?
你们几点上课？
The baby starts to cry / crying.
那个孩子开始哭了。[拓展]
begin与start意义和用法相似,一般情况下可以互换。如:
He begins / starts to talk with me.
他开始和我讲话。
How did the accident begin / start？
事故是怎样发生的？ 但是start除了表示“开始”外，还可以表示“发动引擎；出发”， 而begin并没有此词义。如:
Come and help me. I can’t start the car.
过来帮帮我,这辆车我发动不起来。
We want to start at six.
