    Step 2 ~ Key words and expressions ~

 

   Step 3 ~ Notes on the text ~

How do you do? 您好！

这是用于第一次与他人见面时的较正式的用语。一般用同样的话来回答。这是一句问候语，并非问话。

用于初次与他人见面等非正式场合的是：Nice to meet you.。

 Come and meet our employees ... 来见见我们的雇员……  

 这里的and表示目的。某些祈使动词可以后跟and和另一个祈使动词，而不是后跟人们预料的带to的动词不定式结构：

Come and see this goldfish. 来看看这条金鱼。（不用Come to see）

Go and buy yourself a new pair of shoes. 去给自己买双新鞋吧。（不用Go to buy）

Wait and see. 等着瞧。（不用Wait to see）

This is Nicola Grey, and this is Chair Taylor. 这位是尼古拉·格雷，这位是克莱尔·泰勒。

This is + 姓名是将某人介绍给他们时常用的句式。

This is Hans. 这位是汉斯。

名词的复数形式（2）

如果名词单数词尾为-f或-fe（读作/f/），则其复数一律变为-ves（读作/vz/），即将-f或-fe变成-v，再加-es而成，如housewife—housewives。

英语中有一些名词的复数形式是不规则的，如man与woman其复数形式分别为men与women。此外还可用man，woman等来区别阳性与阴性：以-man结尾的一些复合词指男性，如milkman—milkmen，policeman—policemen；一些以-woman结尾的名词指女性，如postwoman—postwomen，policewoman—policewomen。

数字200，1000，1001的英文写法

200—two hundred

1000—a/one thousand

1001—a/one thousand and one

 

   Step 4 ~ Grammar in use ~

who引导的特殊疑问句

 Who is ...? 或 Who are ... ? 这类以疑问词who引导的疑问句通常用来询问人的姓名和身份。Who ... ? 仅指人，可以用来询问男性、女性、单数或复数的人。如：

Who is he? 他是谁？

He is Jim. 他是吉姆。

 注意这种句型与What is ...?或What are ... ?这类句型的区别：What ... ? 句型主要用来询问人的类别或职业（详见Lesson 5 、Lesson 7 的课文学习帖），如：

What are their jobs? 他们是干什么的？

They are sales reps. 他们是销售代表。

 所有格形容词与人称代词

 所有格形容词their意为“他们的”，其对应的人称代词是they。（详见Lesson 11的课文学习帖）下面是人称人词及其对应的所有格形容词形式：

What are their jobs? Are they mechanics or sales reps? 他们是干什么的？是机械师还是销售代表？

They aren't mechanics. They're sales reps. 他们不是机械师。他们是销售代表。

 

   Step 5 ~ Word study ~

custom n. 风俗；习惯

When visiting a foreign country, we might find the country's customs strange to us. 当我们去外国访问时，我们也许会发现该国的某些风俗习惯有些奇怪。

It is his custom to go for a walk in the evenings. 他惯常在晚上出去散步。

 customs, Customs n. [复]海关；征收关税的程序

The spy was stopped at the Customs and questioned. 那个间谍在海关补截住并被加以盘问。

How long will it usually take to pass the Customs? 通过海关检查通常要花费多少时间？

 You are introducing an English speaker to two of your colleagues. What do you say?

 Someone introduce you to a stranger in a formal situation. What do you say?
