[语法]
动词加 s(es) 规则
1、一般动词直接加-s
2、s, x, sh, ch, z 结尾的单词加 -es 变化
push -> pushes pass -> passes catch -> catches
fix -> fixes buzz -> buzzes watch -> watches wash -> washes
3、辅音字母加y 结尾,要变y为i加es.
try -> tries worry -> worries study -> studies cry -> cries
4、辅音字母+o+es
do -> does go -> goes
动词不定式
动词不定式不能作谓语,其它的都可作。动词不定式就是to+动词原型。
to tell you the truth 告诉你实话吧(动词不定式短语)
To say is one thing. To do is another. 说是一回事,做又是一回事。
some、any用法:
some/any +可数名词复数/不可数名词;some一般用于肯定句,any一般用于否定句或疑问句;但在征求对方意见时希望得到对方肯定答复,some可用于疑问句
I want some books.
I don’t want any books.
Do you want any books
What about… ……怎么样?(征求对方意见)
Would you like… 你愿意……吗?
