tell意为“讲,告诉”。常用结构:tell sb about sth 表示“告诉某人某事”;tell sb to do sth 意为“告诉某人去做某事”。例如:
Tell me all about it. 告诉我关于这件事的一切。
She tells me to do this job. 她告诉我做这项工作。tell后可接双宾语,即tell sb sth/ tell sth to sb,意为“告诉某人某事”。例如:
She tells me a thing.
=She tells a thing to me. 她告诉我一件事。
【注意】tell是不规则动词,其过去式为told。
There be 句型的过去式
There be 句型的过去式是There was…或There were…,其中There was 后可接单数名词或不可数名词,There were 后接复数名词。例如:

There were some books on the desk. 书桌上有一些书。be going to 的用法
be going to是一般将来时的一种表现形式,表示将来某个时间将要发生的动作或存在的状态,意思为“打算,将要”。其中“be”会根据主语的人称变化成“is, am, are”等形式,to是不定式符号,跟在它后面的动词必须是原形。例如:
I am going to work hard this term. 我打算这学期努力学习。
He’s going to visit his grandparents next Sunday. 下星期日他将看望他的祖父母。take 表示“花费”

主语是人。例如:
I took three hours to get home last night.昨天晚上我花了三个小时才到家。主语是活动。例如:
Painting the kitchen took me all week.油漆厨房花了我整整一个星期。
主语是it,it为形式主语,其后的动词不定式短语为真正的主语,一般现在时的时态下,其结构为It takes sb some time to do sth.例如:
It takes him an hour to do his homework
in the evening.
晚上他要花一个小时做作业。or的用法
or用于否定句相当于“and +前面所有否定词”,表示“也不,亦不”的意思。例如:
He never smokes or drinks. 他从来不吸烟也不喝酒。
