Lesson 2 Breakfast or lunch? 早餐还是午餐?
First listen and then answer the question.听录音, 然后回答以下问题.
Why was the writer's aunt surprised?
It was Sunday. I never get up early on Sundays. I sometimes stay in bed until lunchtime. Last Sunday I got up very late. I looked out of the window. It was dark outside. 'What a day!' I thought. 'It's raining again.' Just then, the telephone rang. It was my aunt Lucy. 'I've just arrived by train,' she said. 'I'm coming to see you.'
'But I'm still having breakfast,' I said.
'What are you doing?' she asked.
'I'm having breakfast,' I repeated.
'Dear me,' she said. 'Do you always get up so late? It's one o'clock!'
参考译文
那是个星期天, 而在星期天我是从来不早起的, 有时我要一直躺到吃午饭的时候. 上个星期天, 我起得很晚. 我望望窗外, 外面一片昏暗. “鬼天气!” 我想, “又下雨了. “正在这时, 电话铃响了. 是我姑母露西打来的. “我刚下火车, “她说, “我这就来看你. “
“但我还在吃早饭, “我说.
“你在干什么?” 她问道.
“我正在吃早饭, “我又说了一遍.
“天啊, “她说, “你总是起得这么晚吗?现在已经1点钟了!”
【课文讲解】
On Sundays: 所有的星期天,每逢星期天
never: 从来不 (可以直接用在动词前面)=not (变成否定句,前面一定要加助动词)
I don't like her.=I never like her.
因为是上个星期,所以时态不是一般现在时.
look out of :朝窗外看 out of是固定搭配
从...里:from, out of
dark: 天很黑
What a day?
What + a + n.——感叹句
It is a terrible day.==> What a terrible day!
what+a/an (+a.)+n.(+主语+谓语)
What a terrible day!
省略 : 1.主、谓随时可省
what a good girl (she is)!
2.省形容词
What a day! 有上下文和一定的语境, 才能省略形容词.
just then: 就在那时
It was my aunt Lucy.
如果不知道对方性别, 可以用it取代
Who are you?/Who is it ?
just只会出现在 “现在完成时”
by train
by 直接加交通工具(不能有任何修饰词, 复数)
如果加修饰词, 就要换掉by用in或on
I go out by bus.
若是两辆 : I go out in/on two buses.
I'm coming to see you. 我将要来看你.
用 come 的现在进行时态 be coming 表示一般将来
同样的用法还有 : go,come,leave,arrive,land,meet,die,start,return,join...
前4个一定要记住
天哪!英国人说Dear me!或My dear!
美国人说 : My god! [???] ([?]发啊的音)注意美英的发音不同.
It’s one o’clock! 注意下划线要连读!
【Key structures】 关键句型
本课的重点句型是现在进行和一般现在.
Now,often and Always 表示现在和经常发生的动作
Now——现在进行时(说话的当时正在发生, 现阶段正在发生)
Often , Always——一般现在时
"现阶段":I am working as a teacher.
I do.../he does...
I get up...
一般现在时, 是一种习惯, 真理, 是过去, 现在和未来都会发生的事情.
现在还在睡觉
He is still sleeping.
频率副词往往放在句子中间, 实义动词前, 非实义动词后
如果既有实义动词又有非实义动词, 要放在两个之间.
疑问句中副词往往放在主语后面.
非实义动词 : 1.系动词(be)
2.助动词帮助动词构成时态的(do,does,will,shall,have,had,has)
3.情态动词 : (must,can,may) 除此之外都是实义动词.
