应用比较级和最高级描述你的好朋友。
For example：
Tom is my best friend. He is the most talented dancer. He dances best in our class…….此句中 who’s 为 who has 之缩写。have got 表示“具有；具备”之意，相当于have。此句字面上的意思是“谁有才华？”1. Who’s Got Talent? 谁是达人？e.g. I’ve got something important to tell you. 我有重要的事要告你。Language pointsWe’ve got a lot of work to do.
我们有很多工作要做的。play a role是一种固定表达，意为“扮演某一角色；起到某种作用”。若要进一步引出具体的内容，后面应用介词in，表示“在某事或某个方面起到作用或承担某种角色”。2. When people watch the show, they usually play a role in deciding the winner. 人们看这样的节目时，通常要评判 出优胜者。e.g.
John is playing the leading role in this year’s play.
今年的演出中约翰是主角。
Schools play the most important role in education. 学校在教育中起着最为重要的作用。3. However, if you don’t take these shows too seriously, they are fun to watch. 但是如果你不把这些节目太当回事，它 们还是有看头的。take someone/something seriously 就相当于汉语“认真对待某人或某事；把某人或某事当真”的意思。e.g.
He was joking, but your sister took him seriously. 他是在开玩笑，但你姐姐却（把他）当真了。Homework1. Read the passage after class.
