Problems and worries are normal in life.
Unless we talk to someone, we’ll certainly feel worse.
Robert advises students about common problems.
I don’t have many friends. What do you think I should do Can you give me some advice
If you join a sports team, you’ll know many new friends.
I think you should try to play games with your classmates.
I think you should join a club.
Talk to someone you know. Find out his/her three biggest worries. Try to think of some solutions to the problems and write them down.
3a
don’t stay up late, buy an alarm clock, ride your bike to go to school
too heavy
eat less junk food and more vegetables, do more exercise
always be late for school
Problems Possible solutions
take notes in class, do more exercises, ask the teacher for help
physics is difficult
My friend _______ has a problem. He/She _____________________________. I think he/she should ___________________.
If he/she _________________________,
he/she will __________________________.
Write about your friend’s first problem and the possible solutions. Use the structures below to help you plan your writing.
3b
分析3b中的作文提纲,可以看出。我们需写三个方面的内容就能轻松完成一篇小作文。
首先,写清楚朋友的名字及其现在存在的问题或困难。
然后,写出自己给他的建议。并用if从句来进一步说明自己建议将会起到的作用。
最后,复读一遍作文来检查有没有错误。
My friend Jenny has a problem. She is too heavy. I think she should eat less junk food and eat more vegetables and fruit. I think she also should get more exercise. If she eats more vegetables and fruit, she will eat less junk food. If she gets more exercise, she’ll be much thinner soon.
A possible version:
Now write your advice for your friend’s second and third problem. Use the structures in 3b to help you.
My friend also has two other problems. ___________________________________

3c
…She is always late for school. I think she shouldn’t stay up later on weekdays. She should get an alarm clock. She should rides her bike to school. If she has an alarm clock, she will get up early.
A possible version:
If she rides her bike to school, it will costs her less time to get to school. She thinks physics is too difficult for her. I think she should take notes in class. She should also do more exercises. She should ask the teacher for help after class.

首先,应通读对话,了解对话的大意。
其次,明确对话中A同学邀请的事由,以及B同学不能参加的原因及解决的办法。
然后,结合所给选项,逐句推敲选择。
2. want 由下半句“但我不能”,可推断前半句意为“我想去”,故填want一词。
1. are, going 由空格后“to the party”,可
知空格处应填go,再由时间状语tomorrow可知应用are going来表达将来时态。
3. if, will 本句为一含 if 条件状语从句的主从复合句,分析句意为“如果你不去,你将会错过所有的欢乐。”,故空格处填 if 与 will。
6. will 由时间状语tonight,可知本句为
一般将来时态,故在谓语动词talk前,
应用will一词来构成一般将来时态。
5. sorry “say sorry to sb.”意为“向某人道
谦”,是固定搭配用法,可知空格处应
填sorry一词。
4. fight 句意“我知道,但是我与父母
亲发生了争吵”,故填fight一词。

埋在心底,不向他人倾诉”。
e.g. You can keep the toy if you like.
要是你喜欢那个玩具的话,可以把
它留下。
2. She just kept thinking, “If I tell my parents,…”
此句中,keep 表示“(使……)保持(某种状态或关系);一直……”,后面接动词时,该动词要用-ing形式,形成 keep doing……结构。
e.g. It kept raining for a week.
雨一直下了一周。
3. Laura once lost her wallet, and worried for days.
once用作副词时,意为“曾经;一度;从前”。它是一个不确定的时间副词,其位置一般是在行为动词之前,系动词之后。

he lives in England. 他曾经生活在
美国,但现在他生活在英国。

problems. We should always try to
solve them.
try to do sth. 努力做某事

minutes. 请尽量在30分钟完成这项工作。
try doing sth. 表示“尝试做某事”。
e.g. Why didn’t you try riding a bike to
go to school 为什么不试着骑车去学校呢?
try to do sth. 表示 “试图干……”,强调付出努力,但不一定成功;try doing 表示 “尝试做……;做……试试”,含有 “看结果如何” 之意。
e.g. — I usually go there by train. — Why not _________ by boat for a
change A. to try going B. trying to go C. to try and go D. try going
6. In English, we say that sharing a
problem is like cutting it in half.
1) share 表示“分享;分担”。
e.g. share a room with someone
(与某人同住一个房间)
2) cut…in half 表示“把……切成两半;
把……一切为二”,in half/halves 是一
种固定结构,介词in表示状态。
e.g. Please cut the apple in half.
7. So you’re halfway to solving a problem just by talking to someone about it!
1) be halfway to …表示“完成了或做了事情的一部分”,这里的to是介词。
e.g. We’re still only halfway to finishing
the homework.
我们才仅仅完成了一部分作业。
2) by 在此表示方式,意为 “通过(……办法,方式)”。

English songs.

Writing strategy
Everything has two sides, good or bad. If you want to show your opinions clearly, you’d better put them about one side together, and then the other side . Never mix them up. Also, suitable connectives are necessary.
Maybe I’ll become a teacher. If I become a teacher, I will work will work with children. I love children, so I’ll be happy. I will also be able to work outside sometimes, but I won’t be famous.
Maybe I’ll become a lawyer. If I become a lawyer, I will be able to help people. But I won’t be able to work outside and I won’t be able to work with children. So I think I will be a teacher.
