一、 词组：

feed the chickens and ducks,       feed the pigs,          feed the horse,

grow flowers and vegetables,        plant trees,            cut grass,

any other,                                    on the farm,           a few…

 

二、 句型：

1.    What are those farmers doing? ------ They’re cutting grass to feed the animals.

2.    What do you grow on your farm?

3.    We have a few goats and pigs.

4.    There are fruit trees in this field.

5.    There is a cow on the farm.

三、重点精析：

1. any other + 名词单数， 指一堆当中的某一个

any other + 名词复数， 指一堆当中的一些

如：Tom runs faster than any other student in his class.  汤姆比他班上的任何人都跑得快。

Are you taking any other drugs at present?   你现在还有服用其他的药吗？

2．表示肯定意义：a little / a few    有一点，有一些

表示否定意义: little / few      几乎没有的

a few /few +可数名词复数      little / a little +不可数名词

many /much   意为“很多的”

many +可数名词复数        much +不可数名词

3.    use sth. to do sth.   用……做某事

我用钢笔写信。      ______________________________________________

4.    many of them    他们中的许多人

many of us       many of the boys      many of the young men

5.    be from = come from     来自……

他来自中国。   __________________________= ___________________________

6.  also; too; either 的区别：

（1）also 意思是也，是比too较为正式的用语，通常用于肯定句中，一般靠近动词。

如：He also asked to go．他也要求去。 I also went. 我也去的。

（2）too 意思也是也，是最普通的用语，常与also通用，但不如also正式，在口语中它用得更多。

too通常放在肯定句句末。

如： I went there, too．我也到那儿去的。

（3）either 意思也是也。它用于否定句句末。

如： If you do not go，I shall not either．倘若你不去，我也不去

7. give … to…   把…… 给……  give sth. to sb. = give sb. sth.

如：Amy gives me a book. = Amy gives a book to me.

8. There is a cow on the farm.

There be 是英语中常用句型， 意思是“有”，表示“人或事物的存在”。

There在此结构中是引导词，已经没有副词“那里”的含义。

当主语是可数名词单数或不可数名词时，be动词要用is；当主语是可数名词复数时，be动词要用are；

而它的否定形式是在be动词后面加not。同时，改为一般疑问句只需要把be动词提前。

肯定回答为 “Yes, there be.” 否定回答为 “No, there be not.”

如：There are five books, two pens and a ruler in the school bag.

There is a ruler, two pens and five books in the school bag.

 

四、重点语法：

（一）名词单复数：

（1） 从单数变复数，变形规则如下：    

1．一般情况下，直接加-s，如：book-books, bag-bags, cat-cats, bed-beds     

2．以s. x. sh. ch结尾，加-es，如：bus-buses, box-boxes, watch-watches    

   以o结尾的名词，一般加-s, 如：photo – photos, radio – radios

   5个以 o结尾的名词加-es, Negro(es), hero(es), potato(es), tomato(es), mango(es)

3．以“辅音字母+y”结尾，变y为i, 再加-es，如：strawberry-strawberries

4．以“f或fe”结尾，变f或fe为v, 再加-es，如：knife-knives     

5．不规则名词复数： 

    man-men, woman-women, policeman --- policemen, 

 foot --- feet,  tooth --- teeth,  goose --- geese

 mouse-mice,  child --- children

单复同形：

deer-deer, fish-fish, sheep-sheep people-people, Chinese-Chinese, Japanese-Japanese

 6. 注意：1）当people后加上s时，即peoples表示“民族”

例如：There are 56 peoples in China. 中国有56个民族。 

2）可数名词，当表示“1”时用a还是an，由后面的单词的首个因素决定，

辅音音素前用“a”，元音音素前用“an”。如：a book    an English book

（二）不可数名词 ：

water(水)  milk(牛奶) tea(茶)  rice(米饭)  orange（橙汁） juice（果汁） bread（面包）等 

1）不可数名词前不能用a或an，常用some，much，a little， a lot of， plenty of表示多少

2）用单位词表示，即用a…of + 名词表示。

如：a cup of  一杯……   a bottle of   一瓶……   a piece of   一张……

    a basket of   一篮……  a can of  一罐……    a bag of    一袋……

    a pair of shoes  一双鞋   two cups of tea  两杯茶   five pieces of paper   五张纸

【练习一：】写出下列各词的复数  

I _______        this ___________       that___________      watch _______

child _______     photo ________        diary _________        day________ 

foot________     book_______           dress ________         tooth_______ 

sheep ______    box_______           strawberry _______      thief _______

peach______     sandwich _______       man______            woman_______

 paper_______    juice_______           water________        milk________ 

rice__________   tea________

 

【练习二：】 将下列词组翻译成英文

[1]三杯牛奶_____________________                 [2] 一袋大米 __________________ 

[3]三篮子苹果___________________           [4]一碗面条 ___________________

[7]五袋子大米___________________              [8]三罐橘汁__________________ 

[9]八条新闻___________________            [10]一箱香蕉__________________  

 

（三）现在进行时：现在进行时表示现在或当前正在进行的动作。

基本结构：be（am，is，are）+ doing

动词现在分词 （-ing）

1．-ing             2.去e+ing          3.双写+ing

（如：get, begin, sit, fit, swim, shop, drop, stop, run, cut, put双写+ing）

现在进行时

提示词：___________________________________________________________

基本结构 ：_______________________________________________________

现在进行时的否定形式：在be动词后面加not。

如：He is not doing his homework.

改为一般疑问句：把be动词提前。肯定回答用“Yes, 主语+ be.”否定回答用“No, 主语+be not.”

如：Are you reading?    Yes, I am.

特殊疑问句：特殊疑问词+be+主语+动词ing形式+其他？

如：What are you doing?
