【知识点讲解】
1. 在今天的课文中,我们看到了一般现在时态和现在进行时态的混用。课文中给出了一些非常明确的“节点”,或者说是“提示点”,来暗示我们接下来所要用到的时态。
比如当everyday和usually出现的时候,我们知道这是在描述正常的、每天都会出现的状态。因此用了一般现在时态;
而当today, this morning, this afternoon, at the moment(意思是“当下、此刻”) 等短语出现时,提示我们说的是当前的状态,所以用的是现在进行时态。
2. 今天还学到了表达几点钟的句子:It's XX o'clock. 在口语中也可以简单说成:It's 3. 这里的It,我们称它为“虚拟主语”。一般用来表示天气、时间、温度、距离等。
3. 走路,on foot;乘车,by car, by bus。注意使用的介词不同哦。
