My day 我的一天

用一般现在时说你的日常。表示习惯用动词原形:I get up,you work,we study。但对 he / she / it 必须加 -s:he gets up,she works,it sleeps。这个第三人称 -s 很容易忘。否定和疑问用 do / does:I don't sleep,Does she work? 新词:get up、go、eat、drink、work、study、sleep、always、yesterday。

He get up or he gets up? — He get up 还是 he gets up?

  1. Emma Minsu, what time does your brother get up? 民秀,你哥哥几点起床?
  2. Minsu My brother get up at six. 我哥哥六点起床。(口误:he/she 要加 -s——应说 "gets up")
  3. Emma With "he", add -s: he gets up. 对 "he" 要加 -s:he gets up。
  4. Minsu Oh, he gets up at six and I get up at seven. 哦,他六点起床,我七点起床。

A normal day — 平常的一天

  1. Jack Emma, do you get up early? 艾玛,你起得早吗?
  2. Emma Yes, I get up at six. My sister gets up at eight. 是的,我六点起床。我妹妹八点起床。
  3. Jack And what does she do in the morning? 她早上做什么?

Explanation

表示日常习惯,英语用一般现在时。对 I / you / we / they 用动词原形:I get up,they work,we study。但对 he / she / it 必须加 -s:he gets up,she works,it sleeps。忘记这个 -s 是许多学习者最常见的错误。否定和疑问用 do(I/you/we/they)或 does(he/she/it),主动词回到原形:I don't sleep in the afternoon,Does she work on Monday?(不是 "Does she works")。注意不规则:go → goes。

Examples

  • I get up at seven, and she gets up at eight. 我七点起床,她八点起床。
  • He always eats breakfast in the morning. 他早上总是吃早餐。
  • I work in the morning and study in the evening. 我早上工作,晚上学习。
  • Does she work on Monday? — No, she doesn't. 她星期一工作吗?——不,她不工作。
