:重难点1：频度副词
表示事情发生频率的词叫作频度副词.
1.常见的频度副词在表示频率上的区别
频度副词 含义 用法
always 总是，一直 表示的频率最高，表示动作反复、不间断
usually 通常地 表示习惯性的动作或状态，很少有例外的情况
often 经常，时常 表示动作或状态的反复，中间偶有间断
sometimes 有时 表示动作时有发生，动作间隔较长，相当于not very often
seldom 很少，不常 表示否定含义，表示动作或情况几乎不会发生
never 从不 表示否定含义，表示动作或情况从未发生
【注意】
不表示具体次数的频度副词（按频率从高到低排列）
2. 频度副词的位置
(1) 频度副词通常和一般现在时连用，它们一般位于行为动词之前，系动词be、助动词或情态动词之后。
Kate is always the first to get to school. 凯特总是第一个到校。
I often help my parents clean the rooms on weekends. 我在周末经常帮助我的父母打扫房间。
(2)sometimes可放在句首、句中或句末；often也可放在句末，
这时可用very或quite来修饰often。
Sometimes I get home very late.有时我回家很晚。
I love sweets, but Mum doesn’t let me have them very often.我爱吃糖果，可妈妈不让我常吃。
Sometimes she goes to school by bus. 她有时坐公共汽车上学。
拓展："once/twice/three times/...+一段时间"也可用于表示动作发生的频率,常谓语句末。

【答案】
1. How often does play
【详解】句意：桑迪放学后很少打球。划线部分为频度副词，特殊疑问词用how often，又因为位于句首，首字母h需要大写，所以一、二空用How、often；主语“Sandy”为第三人称单数，且时态为一般现在时，助动词用does，所以三空填does；助动词后加动词原形，所以四空填play。故填How；often；does；play。
2． How often do
【详解】句意：有时他和他的家人在厨房喝茶。划线部分是频度副词，表示频率，特殊疑问句应用how ofter提问，放在句首注意大写；原句时态为一般现在时，谓语动词是have，实义动
词原形，疑问句应用助动词do.故填How；often；do。
3． How often did bring
【详解】句意：在罗伯特结婚前，他通常给我们带来威斯康星州的奶酪。划线部分“usually”是频度副词，提问用“how often”，后面加一般疑问句；原句谓语动词使用过去式brought，所以一般疑问句用助动词did提问，其后动词用原形。故填How often did bring。
4． twice a
【详解】句意：Sandy每周二和周六都去舞蹈俱乐部。根据“every Tuesday and Saturday”可知，每周二和周五去，说明一周两次，应用表示频度的副词词组twice a week来表示。故填twice；a。
5． days week
【详解】句意：杰克从周一到周五都上学。原句中“from Monday to Friday”的同义表达是five days a week“一周五天”。故填days；week。
6． four times
【详解】句意：我们星期一、星期二、星期三和星期四上语文课。即一周上四次语文课，four times a week“一周四次”。故填four；times。

“May we all be blessed with longevity. Though miles apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together,” (但愿人长久，千里共蝉娟) wrote Su Shi, a poet during the Song Dynasty, in his well-known poem to his younger brother Su Zhe.
The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar (阴历). On this day, people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
In ancient China, that day was a harvest (收获) festival because crops were harvested during that period.
Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries, families also try to get together for the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy they are, people will try to return home for the celebration.
The Mid-Autumn Festival has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays. People eat mooncakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs. The round shape of the cake makes it
look like the full moon. The full moon and mooncakes stand for family reunion (团聚).
On that night, with the beautiful moon in the sky, people enjoy the full moon, eat mooncakes, share the stories and express the best wishes for the family members and friends who live far.
1．Who did Su Shi write the poem for in Paragraph One
2．Why was the Mid-Autumn Festival a harvest festival in ancient China
3．What do the full moon and mooncakes stand for
4．How do your family spend the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival (Write thirty words or more.)

【导语】本文主要介绍了中秋节的习俗。

2．根据“In ancient China, that day was a harvest (收获) festival because crops were harvested during that period”可知在中国古代，这一天是丰收节，因为农作物是在这一时期收割的。故填Because crops were harvested during that period.
3．根据“The full moon and mooncakes stand for family reunion”可知满月和月饼代表家庭团聚。故填Family reunion.
4．开放性试题，言之有理即可。参考答案为We often have a big dinner, then we enjoy the full moon, eat moon cakes and fruit, share the stories and express the best wishes for the family members who live far away.

“May we all be blessed with longevity. Though miles apart, we are still able to share the beauty of the moon together,” (但愿人长久，千里共蝉娟) wrote Su Shi, a poet during the Song Dynasty, in his well-known poem to his younger brother Su Zhe.
The moon is at its brightest on the 15th day of the eighth month of the lunar calendar (阴历). On this day, people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival.
In ancient China, that day was a harvest (收获) festival because crops were harvested during that period.
Just like Thanksgiving in Western countries, families also try to get together for the Mid-Autumn Festival in China. Usually, no matter how far away or how busy they are, people will try to return home for the celebration.
The Mid-Autumn Festival has its own special food just as other traditional Chinese holidays. People eat mooncakes with fillings such as sugar and eggs. The round shape of the cake makes it look like the full moon. The full moon and mooncakes stand for family reunion (团聚).
On that night, with the beautiful moon in the sky, people enjoy the full moon, eat mooncakes,
share the stories and express the best wishes for the family members and friends who live far.
