Lesson 5
Unit 3
Amazing sports
1 Read the email and answer the questions.
Dear Wang Mei,
We had our own classroom Olympics this week! Our class had five different events — jump rope, long jump, sit-ups, push-ups, and “ping-pong pass”. Everyone competed in each event, one by one.
逐个地;逐一地
The events were fun! Kim won first place in the jump rope event. She jumped 178 times in one minute without stopping. Lisa won second place in the long jump. She jumped very far, but Kim jumped farther.
是far 的比较级。farther 主要指物理上的距离“更远”;further 主要指程度或抽象意义上的“更进一步”。
My favourite event was “ping-pong pass”. Each student had to balance a ping-pong ball with chopsticks and move it from one basket to another without dropping it. We used a stopwatch to see who was the fastest. You know what I can use chopsticks very well. Tom did his best, but his ping-pong ball kept falling off his chopsticks.
动词不定式作目的状语
落下;跌落
What were the results I won the race! David was only two seconds slower than me. It’s really enjoyable to do sports with friends! I like classroom Olympics. What about you
Jenny
长难句分析:该句为简单句。It 为形式主语,真正主语是动词不定式短语to do sports with friends,系动词是is,表语是really enjoyable,副词really 修饰形容词enjoyable。
A What were the five events Jenny’s class Olympics had
B Did Kim win first place in both rope skipping and long jump
Jump rope, long jump, sit-ups, push-ups, and “ping-pong pass”.
Yes, she did.
