What is sb. like? 这一句式可用来询问某人的外貌或品行。就本课的具体情况而言,波琳的回答更多地是指马斯顿的品行如何。 2.He telephoned me four times yesterday…他昨天给我打了4次电话……
four times, 4次。 time在英语中作不可数名词时表示“时间”;作可数名词时表示“次数”。请注意英语中次数的表示法:
once 1次
twice 两次
three times 3次
3次或 3次以上通常都用基数词+ times表示:
five times 5次
thirty times 30次 3.the day before yesterday, 前天。 4.answer the telephone, 接电话。
口语中也常用 answer the phone。类似的短语如:
answer the door/doorbell应声开门
answer a letter回信 5.She can't speak to you now! 她现在不能同你讲话!
speak to sb. 意为“与某人说话”。例如打电话时可以说:
May I speak to Pauline, please? 请让波琳接电话好吗?
I' d like to speak to Pauline, please. 我想请波琳听电话。 6.This is Pauline's mother. 我是波琳的母亲。
This is…是英美人打电话时表示“我是……”的句式,而不说
I'm…。相关的电话用语如:
This is Mary speaking. 我是玛丽。
This is Edward calling from London. 我是爱德华,现正在伦敦给你打电话。 语法 Grammar in use 一般过去时(2)(请参见 Lessons 67~68语法部分。)
be动词以外的动词在一般过去时中一般有两种形式。规则动词一般是在动词后面加-ed,如 answered;以-e结尾的规则动词加-d,如 telephoned, arrived。另一部分动词的过去式拼写不规则,因此称为不规则动词,如:say----said, do----did。
用一般过去时的句子中常常有表示过去某一时刻的时间状语,如本课中的 yesterday(昨天),the day before yesterday(前天),yesterday morning(昨天上午),yesterday afternoon(昨天下午),yesterday evening(昨天晚上),last night(昨夜)。 词汇学习 Word study answer
