Section A 重点难点解析
1 -Where did you go on vacation?你到什么地方去度假了?
-I went to Summer Camp.我参加了夏令营。
1)此句中vacation是美国英语的习惯用法,与英国英语holiday意思相同,作“假期,休假”讲,例如:
You have two weeks' vacation/holiday in this job.你干这个工作一年有两个星期的假期。
2)vacation作为vi.,vacation in/at在……度假,例如:The Greens are vacationing in Beijing.格林一家在北京度假。此句为一般过去时的特殊疑问句和肯定句。
went是go的过去式,疑问句应在主语前加助动词did,而动词需用原形,否定句是在主语后加助动词did,再加动原词形。例如:They went to the park yesterday.昨天他们去公园了。
2 I stayed at home.我呆在家里。
1)此句中home是副词,home作副词时意思是“在家;到家;回家”例如:
I went home at six yesterday.我昨天6∶00回家。
2)home还可以作名词,意思是“家;家乡”等。例如:
Shandong is my home. 山东是我的家乡。
3 Did you go to the movies?你们去看电影了吗?

What's the weather like yesterday? It was cold.
昨天天气怎么样?冷。
7 What did these people think of their vacation?
这些人觉得他们的假期怎样?
相当于How did these people like their vacation?例如:
What do you think of the story?=How do you like the story?
你觉得这故事怎样?
归纳:think of想起,认为;think about想,考虑;think over仔细思考He is thinking about where to go.他在考虑去哪儿?
I think of my father.我想起了我的父亲。
Please think the problem over.请仔细想想这个问题。
8 Show the album to your classmates and talk about your vacations.把这个影集给你的同学看并谈论你的假期。

Section B 重点难点解析
1 Listen to Vera talking about her vacation.
听维拉谈论他的假期。
listen to sb. doing sth.听某人在干某事。例如:
I'm listening to Jim singing Chinese songs.我在听吉姆唱中文歌。类似于listen to,其后带现在分词的动词有hear,see,watch,notice,look at,feel等,这些动词后还可跟省to不定式,其区别在于跟doing指宾语的行为、动作正在发生;跟do指宾语经常、习惯性的动作。例如:
I saw them playing football.我看见他们在踢球。
I often see them play football after class.
我经常看见他们课后踢球。
2 We had great fun playing in the waves.
我们在海浪里玩得很快乐。
此句中have fun=enjoy ourselves,意为:过得愉快。而词组have (great) fun doing sth.,表示:干某事干得很高兴(开心)例如:She had fun talking with her friends.她和朋友们谈得很开心。
3 In the afternoon, we went shopping.下午,我们去购物了。
go shopping去购物,类似短语还有:go fishing去钓鱼
go boating去划船;go swimming去游泳等。例如:
Yesterday morning we went fishing.昨天上午我们去钓鱼了。
4 I found a little boy crying in the corner.
我看见一个小男孩在角落里哭。
little此处为adj.“小的”,带有一定的感情色彩。例如:
What a pretty little house!多漂亮的小房子啊!
That poor little girl.那个可怜的小女孩。
5 He was lost and I helped him find his father.
他迷路了,我帮他找到了他父亲。
此句中help sb. do sth.意为:帮助某人干某事,同义语为help sb. with sth.。例如:
I helped my mother clean the floor yesterday.昨天我帮妈妈擦地板。She helped him with his English last week.她上个星期帮他学习英语。
6 That made me feel very happy.那让我感到高兴。
此句中make为使役动词,后接不定式时,to常省略。make sb. do sth.,意为“使某人做某事”。例如:
Tom made me clean my room last week.汤姆上星期让我打扫房间。
7 Today the weather was cool, so we decided to play tennis.
今天天太凉,所以我们决定打网球。
此句中decided to do sth.意为:决心干某事,例如:
They decided to play football with Class One.
他们决定同一班踢足球。
词语辨析
1.learn与study
(1)这两个动词都作“学习”解,有时可以互换使用。如:
He is learning/studying English now. 现在他在学习英语。
(2)learn往往指通过学习、练习或由别人教授以获得某种知识或技能,侧重学习的成果,有“学会”、“学到”的意思。study通常指比较深入地学习,含有努力去学的意味,它侧重学习的过程,有“研究”、“钻研”的意思。如:
He studied hand and finally learned the language. 他努力学习,终于学会了这种语言。
注意:“向某人学习”应该说learn from sb.,不能用study。如:
Learn from Lei Feng. 向雷锋学习。
2.and与or
and与or都是并列连词,但用法不一样。在肯定陈述句中,并列成分之间一般用and连接,在否定陈述句中,并列成分之间一般用or连接。如:
I have pens and pencils. 我有钢笔和铅笔。
I have no pens or pencils. 我没有钢笔也没有铅笔。
注意:可以说:I have no pens and no pencils. 因为and no pencils是and I have no pencils的省略说法,即no A or B = no A and no B。
3.all与all of
一般说来,all和all of都可以放在有限定词(如冠词、物主代词等)修饰的名词之前。如:
All (of) my friends are working hard. 我的朋友都在努力工作。
All (of) the food is good to eat. 所有的食品都好吃。
但是,如果名词前面没有限定词修饰,则不能用all of。试译:
所有的孩子都喜欢看电视。
误:All of children like watching TV.
正:All children like watching TV.
All of后面还可以跟人称代词宾格(us, you, them),而all则不能。如:
All of us are very busy. 我们大家都很忙。
试译:他们都是工人。
误:All them are workers.
正:All of them are workers.
4.动词have除作“有”讲外,还可以有以下语义:
(1)“买”。如:
I want to have a kilo of meat. 我要买一公斤肉。
(2)“用,使用”。如:
Excuse me, may I have your pen, please? 打扰了,我可以用用你的钢笔吗?
(3)“做某事”。如:
have a drink (of) 喝一点
have a look (at) 看一眼
have a rest 休息一下
have a swim 游泳</PGN0174.TXT/PGN>
(4)“用餐”。如:have breakfast/lunch/supper吃早/中/晚饭
(5)“吃,喝”。如:have(some)cake吃饼have(a cup of)tea喝(一杯)茶
(6)“经历,度过”。如:have a good time度过快乐的时光

语法知识
语法
巧记动词过去式
1.be用was或用were,have,has变had.一般动词加-ed,若是特殊得硬记。
事情发生在过去,经常、反复或连续。时间可长也可短,动词时态用“过去”。
2.动词一般过去时,表示过去发生事。谓语动词过去式,过去时间作标志。
否定句很简单,主语之后didn't添,疑问句也不难,did放在主语前。如果谓语之前有did,谓语动词需还原。动词若是was,were,否定就把not添。
巧学动词be的一般过去式
掌握动词be的一般过去时口诀。be的过去时有四巧:
一是时间状语巧,表示过去的短语要记牢;
二是形式巧,单数was,复数were;
否定句结构是三巧,not紧跟was/were;
四是疑问句式巧,was/were向前跑(提前)。
