Unit8 When is your birthday
重点句型和表达
1. When is your birthday
本句是由when引导的特殊疑问句，用于询问对方的生日。答语为It's on+具体日期/in+月份或My birthday is on+具体日期/in+月份。
考向
when引导的特殊疑问句用来提问时间，常用由at，in，on等组成的表示时间的介词短语回答。
eg：—When do you watch TV 你什么时候看电视？ —On Friday evening.星期五晚上。
—When do you want to visit your grandparents？你(们)想什么时候去看你(们)的爷爷奶奶？
—At/On weekends.周末。
when与what time都用来询问时间，但它们有区别：
使用范围 例句
when 1.用于提问笼统的时间。 2.用于提问年份、日期。 1.—When will he come？他什么时候来？ —Next week./Tomorrow.下周。/明天。 2．—When were you born？你何时出生的？ —I was born in 1990.我出生于1990年。
what time 1.用于提问具体的时间。 2.用于询问几点钟。 1.—What time do you go to school？你什么时候去上学？ —At eight o'clock.八点钟。 2．—What time is it？/What's the time？几点了？ —It's half past six.六点半。
2. My birthday is on...
考向一
on后跟具体的某一天、星期几或节日。
eg：He was born on February 14th. 他是2月14日出生的。
We have an English lesson on Monday. 我们周一有一节英语课。
考向二
on后跟具体某一天的上午、下午或晚上，或者是带有修饰性词的上午、下午或晚上。
考向三
英语日期的表达法。
(1)可按照日、月、年的顺序
eg：2012年10月1日→1st October, 2012
读作：first October, two thousand and twelve。
(2)也可按照月、日、年的顺序
eg：2013年3月8日→March 8th, 2013
读作：March eighth, two thousand and thirteen。
询问日期用―What's the date (today)
eg：—What's the date today 今天几号？
—It's March 3rd.3月3号。
如果问周几，使用―What day is it today 今天是周几？
3. —How old are you
—I'm thirteen.
考向一
直接询问对方年龄常用“How old are you 回答为―I'm+数字(years old)．；询问他人年龄用―How old is she/he/your... 回答为―She/He/My...is+数字(years old)．。但在西方国家个人年龄是隐私，询问别人的年龄被认为是不礼貌的。
拓展
询问年龄的句型及其回答方式
问句： 答句：
How old are you /What's your age I am 12./I am 12 years old.
考向二
old/ ld/adj.老的；年老的；旧的
eg：My grandparents are old.我的爷爷奶奶老了。
Her skirt is old.她的裙子旧了。
拓展
old作―旧的讲时，反义词为new(新的)；作―老的讲时，反义词为young(年轻的)。在西方国家，在文章中可以客观地写old man，old people，the old，但是不能直接称呼老年人为old people，而应称呼他们为elder people以示尊敬，或者说in advanced years，意思是年事已高。
4. in August
考向一
表示在某年、某月、某个季节，在上午、下午或晚上等，用介词in。
eg：in 2013 在2013年 in spring在春天 in the morning/afternoon/evening在上午/下午/晚上
考向二
in的其他用法
(1) 表示地点、场所(多指较大的地方)。如果是小地点则用at。
eg：He lives in Shanghai. 他住在上海。
He is at home.他在家。
(2) 表示穿着，戴着(衣服、帽子等)。
eg：My brother is in a brown sweater. 我哥哥穿着一件棕色的毛衣。
(3) 表示用某种语言。
eg：Can you sing this song in English 你能用英语唱这首歌吗？
(4) 表示在… …里面。
eg：There are several girls in the classroom. 教室里有几个女孩。
5. busy
be busy doing sth.忙于做某事
eg：Tom is busy cleaning the bedroom.汤姆正忙着打扫卧室。
be busy with sth.忙于某事
eg：Is Lucy busy with her homework 露西正忙着做作业吗？

重点语法
(一)序数词
1.序数词的构成
第一(first)，第二(second)，第三(third), 第四(fourth)
【魔法记忆】一二三特殊记，th要从四加起；八去t，九去e，f来把ve替；整十变化须注意，把y改为ie再加th；若是遇到几十几，只变个位就可以。
【易错点】forty—fortieth nine—ninth 口诀：四十无忧(u)，第九无异(e)
Exercise:
Jack is ________ years old. Today is his ________ birthday.
nine; nine B．nine; nineth C．nineth; nineth D．nine; ninth
key:D
2.序数词的前面往往加定冠词the。但当序数词前有物主代词、指示代词等修饰时，则不必加the。
eg：March is the third month of a year. 三月是一年中的第三个月份。
My mother is my first teacher. 我的妈妈是我的第一位老师。
Exercise:
My mother bought me a sweater for my _______ birthday.
twelfth B．twelve C．the twelfth
key:A
3. 序数词常用缩写形式，即“阿拉伯数字+序数词的后两个字母”。
eg：first→1st second→2nd twenty fourth→24th
4. 序数词可以用来表示顺序、编号等，但是应该放在名词的前面。
eg：the fifth lesson 第五课
Exercise:
Doris lives on the ________ floor. It's too high, so she has to take a lift every day.
four B．fortieth C．forty
key:B
★表示编号时既可以用序数词，也可用基数词。用基数词表示编号时，则需要把基数词放在名词之后，且名词首字母要大写，不能加冠词。例如：
Lesson Five=the fifth lesson
World War Two=the Second World War
有的编号习惯上常用基数词。例如：
Room 321(读作room three two one) 321号房间
No.2 Middle School第二中学 Class 3三班 Grade 7七年级
Exercise:
—Excuse me, sir. Here's a package for Lin Tao. Which room does he live in
—________.
A．308 Room B．Room 308 C．The Room 308
key:B
(二)名词所有格
名词所有格表示所有关系、所属关系等意义，包括“'s”所有格、of所有格和双重所有格即所有格叠用这三种表现形式。
1. 对于没有生命的事物，其名词所有格常由of短语构成。
eg：a map of the world 一张世界地图 the windows of the room 房间的窗户
2. 对于有生命的事物，其名词所有格形式一般在词尾加“ 's”；以-s结尾的复数名词在词尾加“ ' ”。
eg：Jim's bed 吉姆的床 my father's car 我爸爸的轿车
Women's Day 妇女节 Teachers' Day 教师节
girls'skirts 女孩们的裙子
Exercise:
—Who is that woman in the music room
—She is ________ mother.
Anna B．Pauls C．Anna's
key:C
3.时间、距离、度量衡、价值、自然现象、国家、城镇等名词，可以加“'s”构成所有格。
eg：today' s newspaper 今天的报纸 five minutes' walk 五分钟的步行路程
Exercise:
—How far is your cousin's home from here
—It's about two ________ ride.
hour's B．hours C．hours'
key:C
4. 表示两者共同拥有的人或物(共有)时，后一个名词使用所有格形式即可。如果表示两者各自的所属关系(各自所有)，则每个名词都分别使用所有格形式。
eg：Joan and Jane's room(房间属二人共同所有)
Joan's and Jane's rooms(指Joan和Jane各自的房间)
Exercise:
—Whose room is this —It's ________.
Lucy and Lily B．Lucy and Lily's C．Lucy's and Lily's
key:B
【拓展】双重所有格：即“名词+of+普通名词的所有格或名词性物主代词”。
eg：She is a friend of Mary's brother's.
(侧重说明Mary的哥哥的朋友不止一个，她只是其中的一个。)
She is a friend of Mary's brother.
(侧重说明她和Mary的哥哥是朋友关系，突出了Mary's brother。)
