重点语法
本单元进一步运用一般过去时,并且将过去和现在作比较。
一般过去时的记忆口诀:
一般过去时并不难,过去动作、状态记心间。
动词要用过去式,时间状语句末(首)站。
否定句很简单,didn’t站在动原前,其他部分不要变。
一般疑问句也好变,did 放在句子前,主语、动原、其他部分依次站。
特殊疑问句也简单,疑问词加一般疑问句记心间。
最后一条请注意,动词过去式要牢记!
ago的用法:
ago表示“……以前”,通常与具体时间连用,构成表示过去的时间短语。例如:
five years ago五年前, three weeks ago三周前, two days ago两天前。
情态动词 can 及其过去式:
can为情态动词,表示“能够”,不能独立作谓语,后面接动词原形。
否定形式是 cannot(缩写为 can't),后面也接动词原形。情态动词没有人称和数的变化。例如:
Now he can do many things. 现在他会做很多事情。
could 是 can的过去式,表示过去的能力,否定形式是 could not(缩写为 couldn't)。例如:
Six years ago, Mike could read and draw, but he could not write. 六年前,迈克能阅读和画画,但他不能书写。
write 的用法:
write 的过去式是不规则变化,为 wrote。write to sb意为“给某人写信”。 例如:
I wrote to my friend yesterday. 昨天我给我朋友写信。
He often writes emails to his e-friends. 他经常给网友写电子邮件。
write... for sb 意为“为某人写……”。例如:
My uncle writes stories for children. 我叔叔为孩子们写故事。
use 的用法:
use 意为“使用”,“use A to do B”是动词短语,意为“使用 A(工具等)达到B(目 的)”。例如:
He used the telephone to call people. 他用电话给人们打电话。
同义句是“He called people with the telephone.”。
“with sth” ”是介词短语,在句中可以作状 语,表示“用……”。
look, see, watch 和 read:
这四个单词都表示“看”,但有所区别:
look强调“看”的动作,不能直接加对象,要用at连接对象。例如:
Look at the blackboard. 看黑板。
see强调“看”的结果,意思是“看见,看到”。例如:
I see a bird in the sky. 我看见天空中有一只鸟。
watch 强调“专注地看”,常用来表示看电视、看电影、看比赛等。例如:
watch TV 看电视。
read通常指“阅读”。例如:
read books 看书, read newspapers 看报纸。
文化常识
